Downtown Lowell is trash 🗑️… been from Lowell all of my life … and here’s some reasons :: commercial leases are expensive AF! So businesss hesitate to setup , the city doesn’t allow for dope modern aesthetic due to its “history “, the parking sucks, the cool places get shut down due to altercations - and truthfully Besides seeing a bunch ignorant college kids on a Friday night Lowell people barely frequent it.. There is some nice food spots and a couple bars … other than that now you have some answers . Don’t get me wrong it’s had it’s good times but that’s about 10 years back or so .
