About Old
Town
Old Town, located between the Kansas State Capitol and the Kansas River, is a historic and civic Topeka neighborhood with brick storefront blocks and a walkable street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around S Kansas Ave near SW 6th Ave, where galleries, coffee counters, and independent eateries line the sidewalks. The Topeka Performing Arts Center, The Pennant, and Hazel Hill Chocolate anchor local culture with shows, arcade energy, and small-batch sweets. Late-1800s commercial facades mix with loft-style conversions and pocket courtyards. Sidewalks lead toward the Capitol grounds and riverfront trails, shaping an on-foot routine. Public art and event nights keep the streets active without feeling loud.
