About The Church Row Neighborhood
The Church Row Neighborhood is located between W 6th street and US 63, and extends from Hwy 218 to Kimball Ave (6 Corners). The neighborhood is home to approximately 1483 housing units including owner occupied homes, rental homes, and apartments.
Although the Church Row Neighborhood has seen more than its fair share of housing concerns, it doesn’t take long driving in the neighborhood to see the wealth of old home charm that remains in the neighborhood. Block after block is lined with a variety of housing styles; everything from 2-story Victorian style homes to row houses, to brick tudor homes.
As the name implies, there are a number of churches and denominations present in the neighborhood. The neighborhood is also home to numerous local businesses and organizations.
Of all the great assets to be found in The Church Row Neighborhood, we believe the greatest asset is the residents who call this neighborhood home. As we continue to spend time in this neighborhood we frequently witness or hear about great ways in which neighbors are working collectively to support their community in many different ways.
