Entertainment & Activities
The Downtown Mall is a must-see. It's a pedestrian mall filled with restaurants, coffee shops, bookstores, galleries, shops, music venues, bars and a movie theater. Great for people watching, shopping, etc. There's a free shuttle that runs down main street making it very accessible, though there are parking garages and on street parking available as well.
