Lake Street

Lake Street is a uniquely family-oriented neighborhood that’s all along one tree-shaded wide lane. Here, residents stop to chat with fellow dog-walkers in meditative Mountain Lake Park, parents pull beach-weary kids in red wagons behind them and bikers prepare for their adventures in the hills just north of the bridge.

This neighborhood is a respite for anyone who’s in search of a life beyond crowded city streets and loud nightclubs — Lake Street certainly has none of those — and is a special place for families ready to take it easy and get to know their neighbors.
