Even in the heat of summer, downtown Lawrence remains the heart of the University of Kansas, and serves as a popular location for students, camp attendees and locals.

From restaurants to clothing shops to bookstores to speciality stores, Lawrence boasts a wide array of businesses for the interested passerby. There are many places that capture the local flair of the city, and each comes with a unique story. It only takes one walk down Massachusetts Street or one look into a Lawrence store front to get a glimpse into the story each store holds and the distinctive style lying beyond each entryway.
