Kiwanis Park, located on the neighborhood’s south end, is an excellent spot for folks to unwind after a long week in lieu of hiking the trail.

Walkable streets lined with foliage
Homes lie in a grid pattern, with plenty of street parking and wide sidewalks. Maples and flowering plums appear at every second or third home, towering above the rooftops.
