Fodor's Expert Review Funk Zone

A formerly run-down industrial neighborhood near the waterfront and train station, the Funk Zone has evolved into a hip hangout filled with wine-tasting rooms, arts-and-crafts studios, murals, breweries, distilleries, restaurants, and small shops. It's fun to poke around the three-square-block district.  Street parking is limited, so leave your car in a nearby city lot and cruise up and down the alleys on foot.
