The Boulevard

Once the lively main street of the former town of Leaksville, The
Boulevard
 in Eden, North Carolina, has always been more than just a
road—it’s been the pulse of a community. Born from the textile boom of the
early 20th century, this storied stretch became a beloved destination for
shopping, dining, and gathering, built on the backbone of family-run businesses
and hometown pride.

Through the decades, The Boulevard has seen
change—industries shifted, storefronts turned over—but its spirit never faded.
Today, it’s experiencing a creative renaissance. Boutiques, artisan studios,
and specialty shops like Dreams of Seams are breathing new
life into its historic buildings, blending vintage charm with fresh vision.

Walk its sidewalks and you’ll feel it: the hum of makers,
the warmth of tradition, and the spark of something new. From handcrafted
quilts to curated finds, The Boulevard is once again stitching together Eden’s
past and future—one inspired storefront at a time.
