Lower Highland
Around the Neighborhood
Lower Highland is one of those places where you could easily, and quite happily, lose an afternoon. It's proximity to bike trails and lanes and its copious patios and opportunities for treats, make it an excellent destination for a Saturday brunch or afternoon out. And the views are great. From the milk can-shaped Little Man Ice Cream, you get a great view of the city. If you continue further up the hill, you can see more and more. This neighborhood is also close to 15th & Platte and Highlands Square. So if you're in the area, be sure to stop by and check it out.
