I spent most of my life taking walks after dark, and I've just realized how much joy that brought me and how much I've been forced to miss out on that by living downtown.
Forced to miss nighttime walks -- because it's too dangerous? Or something else?

We find many things of interest on our downtown walks. There are lots of houses from different eras, architectural details, renovations, parks, gardens, construction projects, cats, giant tortoises (OK, only one of those). But it of course depends on what you find interesting.
