Awesome neighborhood

Plaza Midwood has grown a lot over the years with new build homes, renovated homes, and new condo/apartment buildings. Close to Uptown, it’s still far enough away to give residents and visitors a true neighborhood feel. Hipsters and all others will enjoy the bars, shops, and restaurants. Checkout Bistro LaBon, Soul Gastrolounge, The Diamond, and the Thirsty Beaver for great food and libations.
