About
Galloway
Galloway, located between Downtown Decatur and Lake Decatur, is a residential and civic Decatur neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a steady, lived-in pace. The area reads as classic Midwestern streetscapes—modest single-family homes, small apartment buildings, and pockets of institutional architecture. Much of the neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Macon County Courthouse square, where lunch counters, local offices, and storefronts set a weekday rhythm. Community pillars include the Decatur Area Arts Council, the historic Transfer House, and the Decatur Public Library’s main branch. Side streets feel quieter, while the downtown grid brings galleries, coffee windows, and evening foot traffic. Green breaks and lakefront paths add breathing room to the urban fabric.
