The South River, one of two urban trout fisheries in the state, flows through downtown providing the opportunity to catch trophy-size rainbow and brown trout. Historic downtown boasts trendy restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries, and museums. The vaudeville-era Wayne Theatre attracts national acts as well as house-produced theater.
