Area Guide
Bordering downtown Lowell, the Centralville neighborhood lies about 30 miles north of downtown Boston. The area is primarily residential, with the downtown business district within walking distance across the Merrimack River. Loft-style apartments line the streets near the river, allowing for views of Riverfront Park. The nearby highways of I-93 and I-495 connect the area to Boston, Worcester, and the state of New Hampshire.
Get fresh air by riding your bike along the paths of Merrimack River Bike Path in Centralville, then cross the bridge to Brew'd Awakening Coffeehaus for a cup of coffee and a grilled cheese sandwich. Remember hometown hero Jack Kerouac each year at the Lowell Celebrates Kerouac! festival, where you can join your neighbors on a tour of the city, listen to students read their poetry, or discuss the author's most famous works.
