College Park Insurance Co. developed the area 30 years ago, using a master plan to create an open, park-like setting, with no fences between homes. About 400 families live in the area. There are some fences now, but also lots of open areas.
Lots are large, and there are many trees on the main street, the courts and cul de sacs.
There are walking and biking paths, tennis courts, a clubhouse and an Olympic-sized pool. Several restaurants and St. Vincent Hospital are close by. Events include a Fourth of July parade for the children, a Halloween party at the clubhouse, and swim club meets. The neighborhood is racially mixed, with lots of young families with children, as well as middle-aged and older residents.
