Overview
Walking along N Mississippi Ave will provide anyone plenty of stuff to see and do. The street is lined with an array of storefronts and restaurants ranging from the eclectic Paxton Gate and local chiropractor to breakfast-hotspot Gravy and Sunlan Lighting, fulfilling every lighting need you never knew you had. Basically, if you like the Pearl District, minus higher rents, and without all that extra posh then Boise’s right for you, and even more so if you’re a foodie
The neighborhood is bound by N Fremont, NE MLK, N Alberta, and I-5. Most people living here tend to use MLK or I-5 to get around but public transit is also readily throughout and the MAX is only a few blocks west on Interstate Ave. If you’re walking to the MAX though don’t forget about the Failing St pedestrian bridge over I-5 instead of trying to cross the busy intersections at N Alberta or N Skidmore.
Some notable businesses to point out are:
Amnesia Brewing – Kevin King and his wife Kristina started this local brewhouse about 7 years ago. Since then they’ve been using the finest ingredients and employing techniques that may take longer but keep regulars and new comers discovering and rediscovering an unfound passion for beer.
