Welcome!
UpTown is an up-and-coming urban neighborhood
conveniently located between Toledo's historic Old West End
and the Toledo Museum of Art complex and the Central Business
District. The neighborhood's history is one of transition,
first as a residential area for Toledo's wealthy and then as
a commercial district to supplement businesses in the growing
downtown.
In the last 20 years, UpTown has experienced
many positive changes. The UpTown Association was formed in
1987 to help foster area improvement. Many decaying buildings
have been renovated for commercial use and several new business
and residential projects have been completed. Street improvements
along the Adams Street and Monroe Street corridors have further
enhanced the area.
In 2005, UpTown was designated an Arts
and Entertainment district by the City of Toledo. Several long-standing
as well as new restaurant and entertainment venues keep UpTown
vibrant and a popular Toledo destination.
