Limerick is a historic preservation district situated a scant two miles southwest of downtown Louisville. Condo and apartment rentals heavily populate the east side of the neighborhood along the 6th Street area. College students walk or bike to Spalding University and Jefferson Community and Technical College, which lie a half mile apart.
Locals sip their java, enjoy free Wi-Fi and meet with their two- and-four-legged friends at the upbeat Smokey's Bean coffee shop. For a taste of nostalgia, slip on down to Dizzy Whizz, the curb-service drive-in serving the WhizzBurger since 1947. Locals enjoy four-course and six-course fine dining at 610 Magnolia, where fine wines and Kentucky bourbons complement the menus.
