History:
As the oldest public square in the state and one of the oldest in the western United States, Esther Short (neighborhood) has long been the heart of the city—a place where community, commerce, and culture intersect.
Once a frontier hub and trading post, the area has evolved into a vibrant urban neighborhood known for its beautiful park, lively public events, and walkable downtown setting. Esther Short Developments is committed to honoring this legacy by cultivating businesses and spaces that feel authentic, sustainable, and deeply connected to the community. Our mission is to contribute to the neighborhood’s ongoing revitalization while preserving its historical charm and welcoming spirit.
Walking distance to Esther Short Park (movies and concerts); Farmer's Market (local growers and artists on weekends); new multi-billion-dollar Waterfront District (upscale restaurants, shops, and businesses); and the New Season's Market!
