Immediately adjacent to Downtown Huntsville, the Medical District is home to Huntsville High School, a variety of locally owned shops, and state of the art medical facilities.


Anchoring the district is Huntsville's first Whole Foods in the Merchant's Walk development. This infill redevelopment is also home to exciting lifestyle retail such as Mountain High Outfitters, Envy Boutique, and Dress Up. Merchants Walk is also home to casual fresh dining options Maki Fresh and Farm Burger.

Just across Bob Wallace Avenue is Merchant’s Square, the sister development to Merchant’s Walk. It boasts shopping experiences such as Ulta, J. Whitener Boutique, and Hand & Stone Massage and Facial Spa. Enjoy fine dining at Char Restaurant or some Tex-Mex at Chuys.

The Medical District also offers distinct, local retailers such as Personal Couture Boutique,  Emmett Blevins jewelers, and the children's store, Purple Peanut. A short distance from Merchants Walk, you can find Super Chix, Bad Daddys Burger Bar, and Stone Age Korean BBQ in the new mixed-use facility Times Plaza.
