With the development of the South on Main neighborhood and the soon to be constructed Gwinnett Public Library Downtown Duluth Branch, Hardy Street in Duluth is becoming a busy roadway. To help ensure public safety, the Duluth City Council recently voted to prohibit on-street parking along Hardy Street from S. Peachtree Road to Hill Street.

South on Main is a mixture of townhomes from the high $300s and single-family homes from the low 400s. The Gwinnett Public Library Downtown Duluth Branch at the corner of Main Street and Hardy Street will include a new 20,000+ square-foot building, twice the size of the existing branch on Duluth Park Lane.
