HIKES POINT RESIDENT TERRY STEWART INTERVIEW

HIKES POINT IS THE NEW HOT SPOT FOR LOUISVILLE Hikes Point and the areas of small cities, homeowner associations and subdivisions surrounding it comprise the New Hot Spot Place To Live and Work in Louisville. ALL PHOTOS ON THIS PAGE BY JOHN RODGERS, COPYRIGHT 2015, 2016,PERMISSION NOT GRANTED TO COPY In the above photo Hikes Point is on the right of Watterson Expressway and St. Matthews is on the left.  The road crossing Watterson Expressway to Hikes Point and St. Matthews is Breckenridge Lane.   These two communites share the same businesses, doctors, dentists, hospitals and restaurants because each is only 5 minutes away from the other.  John Rodgers, the Publisher of Hikes Point News refers to the Hikes Point Loop as the circle of roads that encirles both Hikes Point and the Dupont/Springs area.   Start at the traffic light at the intersection of Taylorsville Road and Breckingridge Lane.  Drive down Breckenridge Lane and cross the Watterson Expressway and continue on Breckenridge Lane to Kresge Lane.  Follow Kresge Lane to Browns Lane and turn right onto Browns Lane.  Continue driving on Browns Lane until you arrive at Taylorsville Road, with the Good Will on the corner.  Turn right from Browns Lane onto Taylorsville Road and continue until you reach the intersection of Taylorsville Road and Breckenridge Lane.  When you have traveled these roads as have been described, you have completed a drive on the Hikes Point Loop.

Councilman Krammer sought out the Center For Neighborhoods P.A.I.N.T. Program and was successful in winning their interest and cooperation.  Councilman Krammer seves Hikes Point with great skill and integrity.  As a community we should commend him for this great effort to put Hikes Point in the spotlight and help us all remmeber our history as we move forward into the future.  This is another great example which illustrates Councilman Krammer's committment to the families of Hikes Point.  The mural is a beautiful piece of art that will help residence and visitors identify Hikes Point as a beautiful area in our city.

HIKES POINT ORIGINAL BRANDS Hikes Point leads Louisville in home grown specialty businesses that offer products and services that one can only purchase in Hikes Point Scale Reproductions Hobby Store is a one of a kind fun store for people of all ages.  It has been a landmark in Hikes Point forever. It is a destination store that attracks customers, of all ages, in over 15 counties on both sides of the Ohio River. Soupy's is the top original sandwich and soup shop in Louisville.  It is a true Louisville Icon in the business community.  People drive for all areas in and around the economic development area of Louisville to buy their soup.  The drive-thru is always busy and people love to dine under the umbrellas in front of the store or the deck located at the rear of the store.  Customers take home pints, quarts and gallons of Soupy's amazing and delicious, special recipe soups.  Pizza Place Family Restaurant and Sports Bar has been in Hikes Point since the Civil War (not really).  But, it has been in HP long enough to be known as a Hikes Point Landmark.  It is one of only a few place one can eat an oven baked pizza.  All of their food and sandwiches are baked and are good for your health.  Little League teams, church groups, business friends and neighbors regularly visit Pizza Place for great food, entertainment and renewing friendships.  We will add more original business brands soon.     . . . . . . . . .
