The Skyland Neighborhood Association was started in 1970's when a real estate developer attempted to get an area of the neighborhood rezoned from residential to commercial. After that effort of coming together and succeeding in preventing the rezoning, the neighbors found other common concerns. The boundaries of the neighborhood are N. Main St., Monticello Rd., and Columbia College Rd.
