About Merchants
Association
Merchants Association, located between Downtown Fall River and the Highlands, is a commercial and civic Fall River neighborhood with a historic streetscape and a working waterfront backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around South Main Street near Government Center, where storefront blocks, lunch counters, and service shops keep the sidewalks in motion. Pillars include the Narrows Center for the Arts, the Fall River Historical Society, and Battleship Cove. Brick mill-era buildings and compact blocks give the area a classic South Coast rhythm. Braga Bridge views and the Taunton River edge add open sky to the urban grid. Cafes, galleries, and small offices share space with long-running local institutions.
