A glance at the Butchertown Neighborhood 

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — TravelMag recognized one Louisville neighborhood as one of its 16 "up and coming" neighborhoods in the U.S. this year.

Butchertown was Louisville’s original meatpacking district in the 1800s. In present day, only one meat shop remains. 

This historic neighborhood has lots of things people are looking for and rent continues to increase.

Nightlife choices range from Butchertown Brewing and TEN20 Craft Brewery, to Copper & Kings and Play Dance Bar, Louisville’s largest LGBTQ+ dance club. 

There's lots of stuff to do outside as well.

Butchertown is also home to Louisville's Waterfront Park along the Ohio River and Lynn Family Stadium.

You can eat wood-fired pies at Pizza Lupo and shop vintage at Hard Times Collective. 

"No matter what brings you to Butchertown, it’s easy to recognize why this enclave is among Louisville’s premier spots to live, work, and play," the article says.
