Overview:
Southwest Hills Neighborhood Association (SHiNA) was called Crest Drive Citizens Association until early 2015. It was renamed to reflect the inclusion of new neighbors to the south and other neighbors to the west who were further away from Crest Drive.
Views of the city, Cascade Mountains and Spencer Butte are just a few of the beautiful features. Hiking trails from Blanton Ridge to Spencer Butte are located here.
Just up Crest Drive is the former home of Senator Wayne Morse. It is now called The Wayne Morse Family Farm. Senator Wayne Morse was a political figure who has come to symbolize political integrity and service in America. This is the only city park on the National Register of Historical Places and includes 27-acres of park lands and the historic house in a natural wooded area and meadow. The largest off-leash dog park in Eugene is also on-site.
