Whitcomb Bayou is a lovely park to enjoy fresh air and take a walk. It is close to downtown, perfect for a stroll after a big meal. The Epiphany takes place here every year.

Krate focuses on smaller and local businesses, with a mix of more experienced brands and first-time owners so they can lean on each other throughout the process. Three rows of crates are home to 46 businesses, with 30% being run by first-timers. Shipping container spaces can range from 320 to 960 square feet. It’s one of the largest container parks in the country, with more businesses than Las Vegas’ downtown container park.
Restaurants occupy the majority of the crates, with no two dining options alike. The mix of spots includes different cuisines and culinary concepts, including a Japanese ramen spot, a classic French bakery, a Puerto Rican pastry shop, a restaurant specializing in Peruvian and Chinese fusion and a spot for Venezuelan street food, among many others. There are currently 17 restaurants open at the development, with another 11 slated to launch in the coming months.
