An eclectic mix of people make up this happening area’s population. And while million dollar waterfront homes and upscale apartment buildings are the norm, there is nothing pretentious about this quarter. Instead, its vibe is one of community, urban living, and the “support local” movement. This neighborhood celebrates the arts, too. The Riverside Arts Market is a Saturday staple for residents. And no visit to Riverside is complete without a trip to the world-class Cummer Museum of Art and Gardens, which features a spectacular Tuscan-inspired garden that overlooks the St. Johns River.
