Apartments for Rent in East Russell - Louisville

Antebellum churches, Victorian mansions, shotgun houses, and charming historic school buildings will make you feel as though you've stepped back in time – but East Russell isn't just historic. If you move to an apartment in East Russell, you'll be living in a dynamic neighborhood that celebrates its rich history while eyeing a thriving future. East Russell is located just west of Downtown Louisville, Kentucky and dates back to around 1830.

Most of the neighborhood is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. When residents left the area in favor of the suburbs during the 1960s and '70s, many of the homes sat empty. That changed in the late 1990s, when city leaders established a program to renovate the historic homes. By saving these structures, much of the neighborhood's historic integrity remains intact.
