One of the many Fairy Tale Houses in the Highlands
The Highlands neighborhood has a blog… and it’s awesome!
Hearts in the Highlands was developed by the Highlands Civic Association to promote all the amazing facets of this quintessential State College neighborhood.
Best known as the neighborhood closest to downtown and campus and home to many of our historical fraternity houses, the Highlands is bounded by Beaver Avenue, University Drive, Easterly/Westerly Parkways, and Atherton Street.
Seriously, there is so much local love on this blog! A couple of our favorite posts…
- A Forever Home in the Highlands by Lorie Waters — Shout out to State College Community Land Trust!
- Our “Fairy Tale” House by Laird and Svitlana Budzhak-Jones — “It’s like living in the longest-running home restoration reality show minus producer, director, and sponsorship money.”
- Living in the Highlands as Young Professionals by Kim and James Tierney — Reading this makes us feel like this couple is also deserving of their own reality show.
The Highlands is just one of 19 neighborhoods that make up State College Borough. There’s so much to learn and discover—buy the tote here!
