Eastwood Hills East settles within a topography of woodlands, wetlands and waterways. Once home to Kansas City's Municipal Farm, the area now famously backs up to Arrowhead Stadium, and a portion of Interstate 435 also bounds the neighborhood's western side. Access to this interstate is significant as it connects to nearly every highway in Kansas City. "My relatives who live here appreciate going to the games and the commuter convenience. We could do better with restaurants and shopping, but there's a lot of potential for development," says Realtor Regina Drone with All Access Realty, who has lived in Kansas City for 19 years. Round Grove Creek flows through the area's northern edge, emptying into Blue River, known for its surrounding hiking, biking and walking trails.
Eastwood Hills East is close to Arrowhead Stadium, so supporting the Chiefs is a snap.

Swope Parks is just 4 miles from home
Palmer Park anchors the northwestern edge of Eastwood Hills East but it's more so an undeveloped green space. Eastwood Park is just northwest of it, on the other side of I-495. It's by a lake people enjoy passively and has a medium-sized playground. Some locals connect to Blue Banks Park via the Blue River Trail, located 1.9 miles away off Manchester Trafficway. This park opens further access to the 4-mile Bush Creek Trail, known for its creek, waterfall and bright pink dogwoods.
