Indie booksellers are only steps away from international cuisine and world-class concerts . The Glebe ’ s Lansdowne redevelopment unites foodies , beer buffs , live entertainment lovers , shoppers , and sport lovers in one dynamic , multi-use facility , and park space ; a yearround farmers ’ market , and the historic Aberdeen Pavilion only add to its charm .
