What a fabulous part of town. I strolled the Stephen Avenue Walk on two days during my vacation and marvelled over the beauty of the area- all the gorgeous landscaping of hanging flowere baskets, etc. Visually, the walk is stunning. So many restaurants, saloons, gift shops, food carts, etc. There was live music a few days ago. Yes, it's a tourist destination in close proximity to the Hyatt and Marriott, but I also saw quite a bit of locals streaming out of the office buildings at lunch time.
What a wonderful example of urban vitality!
