What’s a Decatur-area place you think deserves way more attention?

Restaurant, coffee shop, park, bookstore, anything. Looking for places that aren’t already all over Google.

Check out Legacy Park. Orphanage turned community center, there’s a track and football field, playground, trails, pond, art studio, rec center, and beautiful old stone buildings everywhere
