As the rebuild process continues, Uptown Lexington is open and ready to welcome you! Currently, the only section of Main Street that is closed to traffic is the block between East Center Street and West 1st Street. All other surrounding roads and side streets are open to thru traffic with many parking spaces available.

​​

Though the street and parking is unavailable on Main Street directly in front of Army Navy Store is closed to vehicles, the sidewalk in front of the store is open to pedestrians, with convenient parking just around the corner.

​​

All Squares remain open to one-way thru traffic, including the Square in front of Conrad & Hinkle Grocery and the Lexington Visitor Center, which can be accessed by the adjacent Square.

​

Please drive slow and have patience with us as we rebuild this special part of our community. Your visitation with us is so important, and we thank you for your continued support.
