Welcome to South Side

South Side

On Lansing’s South Side, houses in neighborhoods like Colonial Village, Churchill Downs, and Old Everett offer affordable starter home options, as well as larger historic homes. 

Along the region’s Cedar St. and Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. corridors, local shops and restaurants have gained loyal fan bases. Explore authentic international eateries and shops, like Naing Myanmar Family Restaurant, Don Pancho Market, and the Taquero Mucho food truck.

The South Side is also a hub for those who like to stay active. Enjoy miles of sprawling, wooded trails at Scott Woods Park and Hawk Island Park, which also hosts the Hawk Island Triathlon. Hope Sports Complex is home to soccer and volleyball leagues, and you can grab a drink at Cleats Bar and Grille while you watch the game.  

Vibrant culture and community connection.
