Downtown Fargo

[2002jack]

I've been to Fargo a few time, but have never paid that much attention to my surroundings.

What's considered downtown Fargo, and how far would that be from the interstate?

[Bisonguy]

The 'core' of downtown IMO is Broadway, from Main Ave. to 6th Ave. N. That's where the greatest concentration of retail/restaurants are located. Donwtown extends to the river on the east side of broadway (about four blocks), and the to the west it's a little more difficult to define (I'd say to University Ave.)



Broadway is about 2.5 miles off I-29.

2002jack, take Main Ave east from I-29. Turn left on Broadway (if numbered, it would be 6th St).

Just look for the 3 "highrise" buildings.

You can actually see the Fargo skyline to the east from I-29 just south of Main Ave. around where Tool Crib and the Floor to Ceiling Store is. Heck, I can see the Fargo skyline from mile marker 5 in SE Moorhead on I-94. The land is so flat.

All land in the FM area is flat!

And the I-29 and I-94 over passes...

And Boot Hill behind the West Fargo STOCKYARDS.

If you truly want to experience dowtown fargo you need to visit the Empire. All you need is $20 and you'll be set. Especially if you go on Saturday night. Beam and Coke night.
