Main Street is a quiet and definitely has that small town feel to it. Like I said, Madison, Alabama has exploded in growth and population and I would consider the area around the stadium to be the new main area of Madison. Still, this is a very cool place to check out and I would definitely recommend here and I give it five stars overall. If you find yourself anywhere in the area, I would definitely recommend checking this glimpse into the past out.

Main Street is home to the Main Street Café (which is the former site of a local prison and features a jail cell you can dine in) and Old Black Bear Brewery, Madison (which also has an Athens, AL location). Other Main Street-area businesses currently are Holtz Leather (store front is Sullivan Street), Murphy Homes, and the Lanier House Tea Room and Private Venue. Main Street is surrounded by unique 1800s period architecture including homes on Church Street. The gazebo and surrounding historical markers on Main Street are worth a stop, albeit brief, to check out! I agree with yelper John M.'s review! And, honestly, one can drive right by Main Street Madison, AL without noticing it. Since the Town Madison development has come into play, the area around the Toyota Stadium now offers many entertainment, dining, and housing options and is considered "Madison" also. Of course, Town Madison does not have the old school charm and coziness of Main Street, Madison.

Morgan County Memorial Park is very impressive and while not a huge park by any means, it is extremely moving and is a powerful reminder of the courage of our military and the sacrifice that all gave, including those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. They also have a tank, a plane, a helicopter and the anchors and machine gun of a navy vessel. There is a good amount of parking and again, this is a very impressive park that leaves anyone who has visited with a powerful impression. If you find yourself in Decatur, Alabama or anywhere close (it is close to the Alabama and Tennessee border on Interstate 65), I would definitely recommend checking Morgan County Memorial Park. We must remember our brave military and those who gave their lives so we can live free.

I wanted to a. renew my driver's license and b. remove my organ donor status. I assumed the organ donor status change would involve some paperwork. I checked online and did not see any. Off I went to the Annex, and within 5 minutes, I had the organ donor status changed to non-donor, my new temporary driver's license printed out, and new photo made for my driver's license. And the lady working the counter was beyond kind and courteous! All these great experiences at the Limestone County Courthouse/Annex have nearly erased my bad memories of Madison County Courthouse. All courthouses could take serious notes from the manner Limestone County operates - professionally, kindly, and expeditiously!

The bridge has always seemed to be in good shape on the numerous times I've travelled it! Why no fifth star? I'm just not a fan of bridges in general.
