    "No dog parks. Most dogs in the green spaces are without a leash. Problematic for children and smaller dogs. "

    "Living downtown is fun, exciting, and there is ALWAYS something to do‼ There are countless restaurants to dine in or carry out. The Canal is great and beautiful at night. The Circle Center Mall is a great place to shop. I was born and raised in Indianapolis, so I've lived pretty much all over Indy. Downtown has kept me longer than any other side of town. I LOVE MY HOMETOWN 😊 I'M A CITY GIRL‼‼🏢🏦🏨⛪🏛🏙🌃"
