‘Convenient place to live’ in Lexington
Convenience is the first word Dennis Hyde thinks of when describing the area around the communities of Patchen Woods and Chippen Dale Square. “It’s a convenient place to live, where you don’t have to get in your car every time you need to go somewhere,” says Hyde, the manager of the Lexington Ice Center & Sports Complex. Many here live just a few blocks from brand-name retailers, fast-food restaurants, eateries and late-night neighborhood watering holes. These communities also provide convenient access to several recreational facilities for winter sports, like the Lexington Ice Center—the only of its kind in the city and one of just five ice rinks in all of Kentucky. In addition, proximity to the thoroughfares at New Circle and Richmond roads also makes for easy commutes. Chad Bowman, a Realtor with The Brokerage, says "Richmond Road is one of the main roads that goes north and south. You can be on Richmond Road and downtown in 10 minutes.”
Patchen Woods-Chippen Dale is a picturesque and conveniently located neighborhood.

Lexington Ice Center skating and sports at Mount Tabor Park
The Lexington Ice Center has two rinks. The public gets to use one for general skating, while the other is typically reserved for figure skating and hockey practice. Hockey is an all-ages sport here and leagues for youth through adulthood practice here. The ice center also has three gyms for various sports and fitness activities. “Volleyball is huge right now, and everybody wants to play pickleball,” Hyde says. The center also has three biblically-themed miniature golf courses, which Hyde says “makes us very unique.” The 13-acre Mount Tabor Park is a community green space with paved trails, a bark-covered playground, and basketball and tennis courts. Mount Tabor also has a large field used by youth soccer teams.
