Neighborhood

The Institute Park neighborhood is named after its namesake green space. The sprawling historic park has a lake and is a popular spot for summer concerts and events including Father’s Fest and Caribbean Festival. Along with Institute Park, the neighborhood has several parks like Elm Park, another historic 60-acre park, so residents have access to plenty of outdoor amenities. Located directly west of Downtown Worcester. Institute Park is home to Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Becker College, making it a great option for anyone looking to live near campus or the heart of the city. The neighborhood also has a thriving arts scene and houses several art galleries and the Worcester Museum of Art. Influenced by the two colleges, there are trendy eateries, coffee shops, pubs, and grocers located along Park Avenue and Highland Avenue. With newly built apartment buildings and historic houses available for rent, Institute Park merges suburban and urban living.
