Have you walked the Big Four Bridge on a summer evening, and what were you talking about?
Louisville likes to claim its own, and the people who believed in you deserve to be claimed too, along with the shotgun house or cul-de-sac you call home. Nothing leaves your hands while you live. Someday the people you choose will find a city and a person they recognize, told in your own voice.
Louisville, Kentucky
Louisville is Muhammad Ali's hometown, and the Muhammad Ali Center, which he and Lonnie Ali founded in 2005, stands in the city today. Louisville likes to claim the people who came from here, and it should. You came from somewhere too, and the streets, schools and people who shaped you are part of your story. Who were the people who believed in you? What did you learn from them? Those are stories the people after you will want to hear.
Waterfront Park sits along the Ohio River, with playgrounds, picnic areas and boat docks, and the Big Four Bridge, an old railroad bridge opened to people on foot and on bikes, crosses the river to Jeffersonville, Indiana. It is a lovely place to watch the sun go down. Have you walked that bridge on a summer evening, or brought someone there for the first time? What were you talking about? What did the city look like from the middle of the river? Small scenes like that are worth keeping.
Louisville and Jefferson County share a single metro government, so the city takes in old downtown blocks, suburbs and dozens of small communities. That means a great many different Louisvilles live side by side. On West Main Street you can even tour the factory at the Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory. Whatever your Louisville looks like, whether it is a shotgun house, a cul-de-sac or an apartment above a shop, your view of it is part of the city's story and part of yours.
