About Three
Trails
Three Trails, located between the Independence Square and the Little Blue River corridor, is a historic and residential Independence neighborhood with brick storefront blocks and trail-era landmarks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Independence Square at W Truman Rd and N Main St, where courthouse views meet coffee counters, local galleries, and old-school diners. The National Frontier Trails Museum and the Bingham-Waggoner Estate anchor the area’s wagon-road legacy. Tree-lined streets mix late-19th-century homes with tidy mid-century infill, giving walks a porch-and-garden rhythm. Pocket parks and the nearby river greenway shape a weekend loop of paths and picnic lawns. Civic buildings and small businesses keep the streetscape active without feeling hurried.
