Area Guide
Butchertown, immediately east of downtown Louisville, gets its name from the booming meat industry that started in the 1800s. Today, the mixed-use neighborhood supports both industry and residential areas, thanks to locals pushing for residential preservation in the 1960s. Housing ranges from preserved historical homes to newer residential developments, including apartments for rent, with three core residential areas set amid the industrial and commercial blocks. While home styles vary, most use wood frame and red brick construction, creating a cohesive, distinct look. Grab your skateboard and head to the Dave Armstrong Extreme Park, known as one of the best skate parks in the nation. Connect with Butchertown history at the Thomas Edison House Museum, where historians believe Thomas Edison rented a room after the Civil War. When you're ready to refuel, head to Butchertown Grocery for simple dishes inspired by the neighborhood's history. If you crave a home-cooked meal, join fellow Butchertown residents at the old-fashioned Hall's Cafeteria.
