Melbourne's History and More
Melbourne Square and Main Street
The heart of downtown Melbourne blends 19th-century history with modern-day activity in an interesting mix that makes it worth exploring even if you're just passing through on I-95.
As with most towns built by Southern Railroads in the 1800s, one of the main focal points of life is usually their train station or at least evidence where they used to be located. In this case, it's the decorative Melbourne Amtrak Station that serves as a reminder of how important transportation once was.
But at the same time, modern-day activity in the form of retail stores and restaurants makes this a destination in its own right.
Historic landmarks lining old Main Street face-off with boarded-up buildings from bygone days alongside brand new lofts for rent or sale—making it clear that history isn't all there is to see and do here.
While walking down the main street, you'll also find an interesting mix of specialty shops such as antiques, consignment stores, gumbo food, and B&Bs on side streets throughout downtown where more than 100 different eateries serve hungry shoppers and travelers alike.
When it comes to history and shopping, this is one of the few places where it's possible to have your cake and eat it, too.
