Murray Hill is Riverside's scrappier neighbor to the west, a proud working-class grid that's become one of the city's most creative corners. Edgewood Avenue anchors the revival, with taprooms, coffee, BBQ, and maker studios filling old storefronts, and the historic Murray Hill Theatre still drawing crowds. It wears its blue-collar roots and its comeback with equal pride. On Jax Locals you'll find the independent, locally-owned businesses that give Murray Hill its character — no chains, just the real thing.
