Housing and recreation options just south of downtown Manchester
Bordered to the north by downtown Manchester, the Kalivas-Union community is home to entertainment venues, food spots and locally owned businesses. A large part of the community is made up of multi-unit and single-family housing, with restaurants and parks of varying sizes just a short drive or walk away. With so much to be found on all sides of the community, residents are often immersed in the energy of downtown. “The neighborhood is quickly growing,” says Richard Valentin Gutierrez, a Realtor with RE/MAX Synergy who has served the community for over five years. "It, like a lot of areas, has been cleaned up, and a lot of money is going into them from the city.”
Gill Stadium mainly hosts amateur baseball and football and has a capacity of 3,012 people.
JFK Memorial Coliseum is an indoor skating ice rink in Kalivas-Union.

Elm Street and increased pedestrian traffic
Route 3, also known as Elm Street, runs along the western end of the Kalivas-Union neighborhood, making trips to downtown Manchester convenient. Residents also have Interstate 93 less than 3 miles to the east of the neighborhood making trips to nearby destinations like Methuen a streamlined journey. The community also has much less traffic compared to the downtown area, and the streets are also lined with paved sidewalks, which have seen more pedestrians in recent years. “There has been a bit of growth for pedestrians and foot traffic, but the area is still mainly car friendly,” Valentin Gutierrez says. “But it's easy to get from one side of the city to another; it only takes about 15 minutes.” The Manchester-Boston Regional Airport is a little more than 4 miles to the south, and Catholic Medical Center is less than 2 miles to the west across the Merrimack River.
Manchester steak and cocktails
While the Kalivas-Union community has a number of small local eateries, many residents head downtown for the variety of dining options that have spurred the area's rebirth. The Foundry is one of the more well-known Manchester restaurants that offers river views from a historic mill yard. While the burgers and brunch options are popular among many residents, it is most well-known for its craft cocktails that some compare to a work of art. Additional restaurants in the downtown area include the Hanover Street Chophouse, where leather chairs and soft lighting welcome patrons. “It has wonderful steak alongside great service and atmosphere.” Valentin Gutierrez says. “It's my favorite spot to eat, and I think it has the best steak in all of Manchester, if not all of New Hampshire.” The area's closest grocery store is the Price Rite Marketplace.
