University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Section III – 7 Downtown Urbana Downtown Urbana Urbana’s quaint downtown is characterized by law firms, office development, nondescript store fronts and a few blocks of concentrated retail. The area’s retailers do business during the day, and its restaurants are active in the evening. The nearby Lincoln Square Mall with numerous vacancies is home to one of the market’s most interesting local merchants, art mart. Schnucks and Country Market supermarkets in Urbana are the closest grocery stores to campus on the east side. Listed below are several of the retailers and restaurants located in Downtown Urbana.

In the evening, Downtown Champaign has been revitalized with its active restaurant and bar assortment. The downtown’s retail and entertainment selection will be broadened with the opening of the One Main Street Development at a key downtown intersection.
