U.S. Route 41 has new grocery stores

Bev’s Restaurant blends into the residential landscape just north of the neighborhood, pulling in regulars for homestyle breakfast and homemade pies. Down the street, a thousand guitars line the walls of Music Shoppe, a 50-year Terre Haute institution whose past customers include Paul McCartney, Eddie Van Halen and Eric Clapton. Over the past few years, U.S. Route 40 has developed into a shopping hub with fast-food restaurants and grocery stores, including a Walmart Supercenter, Aldi and Meijer. Cultivate Farmstead, another new addition, is an organic produce farm on Margaret Avenue. Aspiring green thumbs can take classes at the farm and learn skills like seasonal gardening and composting. For more dining options, downtown Terre Haute is less than 3 miles away, and U.S. Route 41 has even more stores and restaurants.

Locals skip train traffic on the Margaret Avenue overpass

Sidewalks line main roads like Wallace Avenue and 25th Street, making the walk to elementary school easier for kids. Terre Haute Transit bus stops are scattered in the area, but most people drive. A CSX railyard west of 19th Street doesn’t contribute to noise, but regular train traffic can cause backups; however, locals know to take the Margaret Avenue overpass to avoid delays. U.S. Route 40 and Interstate 70 are about 3 miles east, while Indiana State University and Union Hospital are roughly 3 miles west. Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology is about 5 miles away.
