Highland Square, located between Downtown Akron and Wallhaven, is a historic and artsy Akron neighborhood with a walkable main drag and a porch-lined streetscape. The character concentrates at West Market Street and Merriman Road, where indie coffee counters, record bins, and late-night bites cluster under old storefront signs. The Highland Theater and Angel Falls Coffee Company act as cultural anchors, with Square Records adding a long-running local soundtrack. Early-20th-century houses and compact apartment buildings give the side streets a layered, lived-in look. Pocket parks and the nearby Towpath Trail shape daily routines around green space and bike routes.
