"Main Street Montgomery is mainly a traffic throughway"
I grew up on Main Street and it is much different than it was then. The last decades have seen major changes to the buildings on Main Street. Even when I lived there, it was going through changes. There are very few residential places left on Main Street mostly just a couple of apartment buildings and a house or two. The homes where people lived have either been torn down and replaced by new buildings or converted into businesses (those are mostly the historic ones.) One of the things that hasn't changed, is that Main Street still sees a lot of traffic. Many people use it as an alternative to Montgomery Road as it runs parallel to Montgomery for its short course. It is in the heart of the Downtown Montgomery, so is near some fabulous restaurants and neighborhood bars, not to mention all of the shops. Main Street has its own restaurant in Pomodoris, a local Italian restaurant serving delicious wood-fired pizzas and more. Chances re, if you're in Montgomery or going through there, at some point you'll either drive on Main Street or cross over it.
Pros
- near great food, shopping and more
Cons
- too much traffic
