About
Westboro
Westboro, located between SW 6th Ave and I-70, is a residential and civic Topeka neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and a leafy, park-adjacent feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Gage Park campus near SW Gage Blvd and SW 10th Ave, where museum buildings, gardens, and event lawns set a steady daytime rhythm. Brick colonials and tidy bungalows mix with larger lots and mature trees, giving blocks a composed, established look. The Kansas Children’s Discovery Center and the Mulvane Art Museum act as cultural anchors with year-round programming. Sidewalk loops through Gage Park and the Reinisch Rose Garden frame daily walks and casual meetups. Nearby Washburn University adds lectures, galleries, and a collegiate edge without changing the calm residential cadence.
