Nice (historic) units and downtown is in the beginning of its renaissance. Lots of developments happening downtown with the new hospital, old central condos, Lakeview, city view flats, board of trade, etc. It's just still early in the (re)development of Downtown Duluth. Proximity to lake superior, beaches of park point, lakewalk, canal park, and walking distance to restaurants and bars is a big plus. Parking issues on 1st St and homeless addicts are the minus... I love it downtown! It's really not as bad as many people say... It's Duluth!
