About Highland

Place

Highland Place, located between Millikin University and downtown Decatur, is a residential and historic Decatur neighborhood with tree-lined streets and early-20th-century architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along W Main St near the Millikin campus, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and small storefronts set a steady, walkable rhythm. Brick foursquares, classic bungalows, and tidy porches give the blocks a cohesive, lived-in look. Millikin University adds a cultural pulse through performances and campus events. Nearby green space and the lakefront loop at Nelson Park shape daily routines around trails and open lawns. Downtown’s theaters and galleries sit close enough for an evening out without changing the neighborhood’s quiet cadence.
