Cobb Lane is a one-block long cobblestone street located in Southside. The former alleyway runs between 13th and 14th Avenues South, parallel to 19th and 20th Streets South. In 1982 the lane was named after Virginia Cobb, who in 1948 converted the former Levert Apartments (circa 1920) into retail shops and opened the Cobb Lane Restaurant. Cobb Lane is today home to several restaurants and businesses.
