Reno's Midtown District is a success story in itself. Located right in the center of everything, just adjacent to the downtown, this area was long considered nothing special, perhaps even a little sketchy.

There are restaurants, retail stores, museums, nightlife and entertainment, professional services and more, all with a chic nouveau twist on the classic Biggest Little attitude.
