Welcome to Crescent Hills

Kentucky has multiple notable districts, neighborhoods, and homes. Crescent Hills is a nationally recognized historic neighborhood east of downtown Louisville. Crescent Hills is the third neighborhood that makes up the 'C' triangle mentioned in the Clifton/ Clifton-Heights introductory blog.

Bound by popular routes such as Brownsboro Rd, Lexington Rd, and Frankfort Ave, Crescent Hills` location is ideal!

Due to the notoriety of Crescent Hills, there's an established Community Council that rose to protect its integrity. When the tornado of April 1974 hit Louisville, the Crescent Hill Community Council, CHCC, became very active in serving its community.

"The CHCC is to serve as an advocate for maintaining Crescent Hill's quality of life by improving the civic, recreational, cultural, and educational life of the Crescent Hill neighborhood, and by strengthening community pride and involvement through objective planning, preservation, and enhancement of its historic character and natural beauty." – Crescent Hill about page.

Today, the CHCC continues to work on its mission (stated above) and provide a safe, happy environment for its residents.

"The CHCC is comprised of Crescent Hill residents who pay annual membership dues. The CHCC holds an annual meeting for all members in November when new board members are elected for the following year. A Board governs work between general meetings. The Board is composed of officers, district representatives, and at-large members. Board meetings are typically held monthly and are open to the public." – Crescent Hill about page.

The Council hosts multiple recurring events throughout the year. Long-term residents may recognize these events; however, due to Covid, some events are now virtual. Check out more details about the events are on the CHCC website and the CHCC Facebook page.

The 2022 year is underway, and the CHCC's events are always fantastic! Keep up with our posts about Crescent Hills and the upcoming events held by the CHCC.
