Today we’re in East Walnut Hills! This neighborhood is well-known for its stately single-family homes, many built around 1900, when the hilltop community was a growing streetcar suburb.
Exploring the residential side streets of this historic community offers stunning examples of Italianate, Second Empire, Craftsman, Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Chalet, and many other architectural styles.
You can also make other discoveries, like Bootsy Collins Way, named in honor of the legendary bass guitarist, singer and songwriter who grew up on Hackberry St. and got his start as a session musician at King Records just up the street in Evanston!
The vibrant DeSales Corner business district boasts bars, restaurants and retail, including Hello Honey, Heyday, Indigenous craft gallery, Manor Vintage, The Fix Coffeehouse & Bar, and RUSK Kitchen + Bar.
The best time to explore the neighborhood may be on Friday afternoons, when the East Walnut Hills Farmers Market is in full swing (4-7pm through late October). Grab an adult beverage and shop for fresh produce, breads, baked goods, handmade soaps, fine art, apparel, and much more, against a backdrop of live music. The farmers’ market takes place in the southeast corner of the Madison Rd. parking lot.
