Edwardsville and Glen Carbon
VISIT.
To say that Edwardsville and Glen Carbon are steeped in history would be an understatement. In fact, Edwardsville is actually one of the oldest cities in Illinois. But these two towns aren’t living in the past; they’re continuously building on it. In 2010, Edwardsville was named to Family Circle’s “10 Best Towns for Families” list, and Glen Carbon was listed among CNNMoney’s “100 Best Places to Live” in 2009.
Considering that all of this comes with Midwestern hospitality and convenient access to the thriving St. Louis metro area, it’s easy to understand how these two communities became such popular places to live and visit. It’s all about choices.
Main Street Edwardsville Unique art, boutiques, music and other surprises await, interspersed with a variety of bistros, baked goods and fine dining options. Main Street also serves as a social and municipal hub for the city. Important community infrastructure such as the Madison County Courthouse, county offices, Edwardsville fire and police stations, and the Madison County Historical Museum all play a part in making Edwardsville’s downtown a lively place to visit.
So what’s the reason for this prosperity, and why are these communities such great places to visit? There are unique historical sites, cultural attractions, parks, natural areas and eclectic shopping and dining clusters. Plus, the presence of Southern Illinois University Edwardsville and Lewis and Clark Community College create a strong educational hub with an energetic college town feel. 4 Edwardsville/Glen Carbon Chamber of Commerce
Main Street Glen Carbon Glen Carbon offers a nice mixture of businesses and boutiques. Shopping includes Miss Bailey’s Poppy Patch and Sweeties Confections. A drive through Glen Carbon reveals nice views of the village’s covered bridge, veterans monument and Miner Park. Other amenities include historical attractions, an excellent bike trail system and the highly acclaimed Glen Carbon Centennial Library.
