Downtown Asheville is today a booming central business district, exploding with commerce, dining, art, and entertainment—offering you myriad opportunities to Live the Life You Choose.

BHTV: Asheville Parks, Part 1 – City Parks:
BHTV: A Tour of the Asheville Art Museum:
“Downtown, in my opinion, is vibrant,” says Clayton, a resident of downtown Asheville, NC. “It’s tiny—you can walk from one end to the other in about a half an hour. And you know the old real estate term “location, location, location”—I mean, that’s it!”
“I can walk out my front door and there’s over 100 restaurants downtown,” says Clayton. “Music venues, the art museum—they’re all available to us. There’s just so much happening here. I don’t think there’s another city like it. It’s amazing.”
“If you live downtown, you live in a condo,” says Clayton. “And we have them downtown. We have old historic and we have new. There’s not one like the other one. They’re all different. It’s a wonderful place to be.”
“We’ve learned a lot about what the condominium market in downtown Asheville is all about and what the typical buyer’s looking for,” says Peter Alberice of Alberice Architecture + Design, architect of the 12 South Lexington Avenue and 45 Asheland Avenue condo buildings. “That includes adequate storage, secure parking, balconies, and a rooftop amenity space that has an inside clubroom and outside viewing area to the mountains beyond.”
“The next growth area in downtown Asheville will be the South Slope,” says Alberice. “The city has targeted that as the next area that they see as being developed in downtown. It is very convenient to not only the Central Business District and the heart of downtown. It’s also very close to the River Arts District. It’s ideally located between a lot of different amenities that make up the desirability of being in downtown Asheville.”

With a population of 87,000, Asheville is the largest city in Western North Carolina and serves as the area's economic and cultural center in many ways. Talk about your A-list cities— Asheville is amassing accolades on many fronts.

Live the Life You Choose: Biltmore Park in Asheville, NC:
“Asheville is a happening place,” says Kit Cramer, President and CEO of the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce. “It's exciting and fun. People who come to Asheville are looking for quality of life.
“People love to experience this area, and people are really learning a lot more about what Asheville has to offer in terms of arts, music, food, outdoor activities—all those types of things,” says Kramer. “They love the beauty of the natural environment, but they also love that they can access that very quickly. We're a cosmopolitan city in a small package. So you can quickly get to a hiking trail. Or if you wanna kayak or you wanna bike, you can easily get to those things. So, we've got big city amenities within a small package.
“Asheville is attractive to a pretty broad cross section of people,” says Kramer. “We're seeing a lot of young people, a lot of creative talent moving to town because of the vibe of the place. But there are also a lot of retirees who move to the area and people with families. So it's a pretty broad cross section of people coming from around the country to live here.
“Asheville is the hub of a whole region,” says Kramer. “People come from 10 counties around Asheville, into work each day, so if you're into a rural setting, you can do that and still be able to access work here in Asheville.
“Asheville has a mixture of neighborhoods,” says Kramer. “That's one of the things that makes it really cool. You can live right downtown, or you can live in a historic neighborhood. You could live in the River Arts District. There are lots of different styles of life in this particular community.
“I think we're gonna continue to see growth in Asheville and the region over time of business and opportunity for people who wanna move here,” says Kramer. “Plus, we're gonna continue to see a growth in terms of visitorship. And once they get introduced, they're really interested in coming back here—Perhaps making it a second home location or finding a way to relocate here full time. It's a great place to be.”

Let's Take A Drive Around Asheville, North Carolina
After a long ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and with the day quickly coming to an end, I had just a short while to drive around downtown Asheville, North Carolina. I hit a couple of Asheville area antique stores and grabbed some dinner, and in the middle, I drive into downtown Asheville to find a trendy city crowded with people headed to restaurants and art galleries.
I made this trip in August-September 2019.

Travel North Carolina - Exploring the City of Asheville
Take a tour of Introduction to Asheville in Asheville, United States - part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
The east coast of the United States is well-known for its scenic towns, a reputation proved well-deserved by Asheville.
Located in the western reaches of North Carolina, it embodies a beautiful blend of urban living along with history and wilderness.
Though it is one of the largest cities in the state, this locale retains its small-town atmosphere.
Having been settled since the 18th century, Asheville has some beautiful historical buildings.
The central park is a place of well-kept natural beauty and is surrounded by some of Asheville's most interesting landmarks.
Though wonderful throughout the year, it reaches the heights of its beauty with the changing leaves in fall and the blossoming of spring.

Asheville North Carolina Mountains 2019 Fall Foliage Screensaver Aerial Landscapes
The Blue Ridge Mountains are a physiographic province of the larger Appalachian Mountains range. The mountain range is located in the eastern United States, and extends 550 miles southwest from southern Pennsylvania through Maryland, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. This province consists of northern and southern physiographic regions, which divide near the Roanoke River gap. To the west of the Blue Ridge, between it and the bulk of the Appalachians, lies the Great Appalachian Valley, bordered on the west by the Ridge and Valley province of the Appalachian range.
The Blue Ridge Mountains are noted for having a bluish color when seen from a distance. Trees put the blue in Blue Ridge, from the isoprene released into the atmosphere, thereby contributing to the characteristic haze on the mountains and their distinctive color.
Within the Blue Ridge province are two major national parks – the Shenandoah National Park in the northern section, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in the southern section – and eight national forests including George Washington and Jefferson National Forests, Cherokee National Forest, Pisgah National Forest, Nantahala National Forest and Chattahoochee National Forest. The Blue Ridge also contains the Blue Ridge Parkway, a 469-mile (755 km) long scenic highway that connects the two parks and is located along the ridge crest-lines with the Appalachian Trail.

Grove Park Neighborhood Tour of Homes, Asheville, NC:
We moved to this beautiful part of Asheville seven years ago. We love historic, urban neighborhoods, and this was just perfect for us. We are a neighborhood that’s on the National Register of Historic Places that happens to land lock a commercial entity also on the National Register of Historic Places. That’s what I think is unique in the country
about the Grove Park neighborhood.
We love to go up to the Grove Park Inn; we take company there. For me, it’s a great place to go up and grab a bite, grab a glass of wine on the terrace. I think it’s wonderful to have a place of prominence on the National Register in the heart of the neighborhood with the homes surrounding it. That’s what I think is unique in the country about the Grove Park neighborhood.
We have a unique situation too, because this is pretty much the neighborhood as it was about 100 years ago, the layout, the streets, a lot of the housing stock. It’s a good example of one of the first car suburbs in the United States.
The Grove Park neighborhood is geographically very large. It goes from the area that we’re in, around E.W. Grove Park, all the way up Sunset Mountain.
We have an architectural housing stock that’s as unique as the neighborhood. I mean, if you want to live in the mountains, if you always want to live in a tree house, we’ve got it. You’re a couple that likes to walk downtown and enjoy all the restaurants? We’ve got it. You want to live with other families so your kids can play in the park? We’ve got that too.
What makes it, I think, so unique among historic neighborhoods is this is what it looked like pretty much 80 years ago, and in another 80 years, this is the important part, it’s still going to look like this. This is a neighborhood that we like to feel has a past, present, and future to it.
--LEARN MORE ABOUT GROVE PARK--
Grove Park Community Information
Grove Park was the vision of Edwin Wiley Grove and is North Carolina's first suburban neighborhood. The first lots were sold in 1909 in an area of curved streets, parks, and natural landscaping, an atmosphere still present today.
The Grove Park Historic District is a Living Nod to Asheville’s History
“What makes it, I think, so unique among historic neighborhoods is [that] this is what it looked like pretty much 80 years ago. And in another 80 years—this is the important part—it’s still going to look like this.”

Hendersonville North Carolina - City Walk Adventure!
Hendersonville North Carolina - City Walk Adventure!
Hendersonville is a city in Henderson County, North Carolina United States. This city is 22 miles south of Asheville. It is the county seat of Henderson County. Like the county, the city is named for 19th-century North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Leonard Henderson.
The population at the 2010 census wHistoric Downtown Hendersonville is more than just a business district. It is the heart of an economically and culturally vibrant mountain community. Take any day of the year to walk the 16 blocks that constitute Historic Downtown Hendersonville and you'll find a place bustling with the activity of work and play. Cruise, on foot or in your car, the distinctive serpentine Main Street for an introduction to our mix of specialty shops, art galleries, funky-to-formal restaurants and vibrant entertainment venues all while enjoying free outdoor Wi-Fi. Whether it is serving as the core of the North Carolina Apple Festival over Labor Day weekend, kicking off spring with the Tulip Extravaganza and Garden Jubilee or highlighting the holidays with the Holiday Tree Lighting, downtown is the year round center for celebrating the community's heritage and diversity.
A visit to Downtown Hendersonville can also take you back in time. Incorporated in 1847, Hendersonville is a fantastic place for history buffs who want a deeper understanding of our area’s culture and peoples. Your journey into the past can begin at the recently restored Historic Downtown Courthouse at First and Main, home to the outstanding Henderson County Heritage Museum. Of course, the Historic Courthouse is only one of many beautiful historical buildings Downtown. As you stroll from the Courthouse North toward 7th Avenue, you’ll notice a variety of architecturally significant buildings that are now home to dozens of shops and services ready to make your stay special. Self Guided Tour brochures are available at the Visitor’s Center- 201 South Main Street.
Hendersonville is a city in Henderson County, North Carolina United States. This city is 22 miles south of Asheville.
Dating to shortly after the founding of Henderson County in 1838, Hendersonville is traditionally known as The City of Four Seasons. The town has a well-preserved Main Street and adjoining downtown areas with many restaurants, antique shops and boutiques in buildings that housed key local business until the mid-1980s. Its architecture reflects the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Much downtown revitalization has occurred since the early 1990s. Larger stores are almost entirely along the commercial strips extending outward from the downtown along U.S. Hwy. 64 east and U.S. Hwy. 176 and U.S. Hwy. 25. There are historic neighborhoods outside the Main Street corridor including the 5th Avenue neighborhood on the city's west side and the Druid Hills neighborhood north of downtown. Depressed areas are found along the city's east side, but redevelopment efforts are underway in the historic commercial district along 7th Avenue East.
The architectural focus of the downtown area is the Historic Henderson County Courthouse, completed in 1905 and completely renovated in 2008. The city is also home to the newly restored City Hall (erected 1924) and the modern Henderson County Courthouse (1995).
The largest street festival of the Hendersonville calendar is the annual North Carolina Apple Festival, culminating in the Apple Parade that regularly draws up to 50,000 spectators. Main Street is home to other festivals and special activities throughout the year.
