Downtown Salem Neighborhood

Downtown Salem, Virginia is a small neighborhood that has retained its charm. Founded in 1802, it became a city in 1968. The homes in the area are an eclectic mixture of old and new. Around the area are many multi-unit dwellings.

The neighborhood’s northern boundary is Clay Street, which meets the Thompson Memorial Highway on the east. This border changes to South College Avenue until it reaches the southern boundary at 2nd Street. The western border starts at 2nd Street, and goes north until it reaches South Burrell Street, where it continues as the southern boundary. When South Burrell Street reaches the northbound Union Street/Academy Street, it forms the area’s western border.

Downtown Salem has a lot to offer. On Main Street, there is the Farmer’s Market and several antique shops. There are many dining opportunities and even more next to the Roanoke College. It’s a short walk to Lake Spring Park, which is a great place for weddings and events like the Fishing Rodeo for the kids. If residents need a bigger challenge, there are 11 miles of bike trails for all ages and abilities.

Roanoke College is a few blocks away. Sports fans will appreciate the NCAA Division National Championship (Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl) that is held there yearly. Roanoke College also hosts the Division III Men’s Basketball Championship. It is also home to the Salem Red Sox, a minor league baseball team.

There are two golf courses in Salem. The Salem Municipal Golf Course offers nine holes and sits only one mile from the center of Downtown. The golf course was upgraded in 2009 to bring the 90-year-old greens up-to-date. The 18-hole Hanging Rock Golf Club is two miles from Downtown.
