the strip, originally an industrial area, is best known for its wholesale business. however, it also provides lots of opportunities for the individual shopper. business hours are often limited, but they’ve got stuff that you can’t get anywhere else…at least not for those prices.

as a neighborhood, the strip has seen growth in business and residential population over the last few years and plans to build on that. look for an overhaul of the produce terminal building on smallman in the next few years.
