Downtown Wichita is the city core on the east bank of the Arkansas River. Old Town sits on its northeast side, with brick streets, limestone buildings from the 1800s and warehouses that now hold condos, lofts, restaurants and hotels. INTRUST Bank Arena, Century II and Naftzger Park are all within a few blocks, and the free Q-Line trolley runs along Douglas.
Most downtown housing is rental apartments, so homes for sale are scarce. What does come up is usually a condo or loft in a converted building, and those sales involve HOA documents and building rules a buyer will want to read early. If you own downtown and are thinking about selling, we’ll show you what similar units have closed at and run the numbers on both a traditional sale and an auction before you decide.
