Locally owned coffee place (as in, the owner/operator lives in the neighborhood - we run into him at the grocery store and farmers' market). It's a great place to study or get a coffee to sip while you walk Goss Ave.

Parks & Nature
Great running, biking, and walking trails. Designed by F. L. Olmstead, the same architect who designed Central Park in New York City, Cherokee Park is Louisville's gem. You can people watch, exercise, find a quiet spot to read, or do a hundred other things.
