I broadly hate the practice of moving downtown bus terminals to less prominent locations, but I think this may be a rare instance where it's OK. Those streets are pretty tight, buses are loud, and the new station is only a block away.

Technically, the Confederate monument is down the hill beside the courthouse. Up in Pack Square itself you've got the Vance Monument, which honors Zebulon Vance
Confederate Colonel Zebulon Vance. He does, admittedly, seem to be on the not-as-bad end of the Confederate veterans spectrum.

There are also four other neighborhoods with their own little historic commercial heart: West Asheville, East West Asheville, the River District, and the South Slope
Nice. We never made it down to the river, nor west of it at all. We did go through South Slope lots of times, and I see the potential.
