Wesley Heights
This quaint neighborhood was originally formed in the 1920’s. The homes were Craftsman, Bungalow and Colonial Revival style of frame and brick. Originally developed on the nineteenth century farm of livery stable owner John Wadsworth. This neighborhood bordering Uptown to the Northwest, was close to two Trolley lines and provided easy access to the Uptown. Today this community is experiencing a rebirth as housing in the center city is ballooning in price, people are moving into this community and refurbishing homes. Wesley Heights now sits between the Gateway portion of Uptown (including Johnson & Wales University) and Johnson C Smith University. For many, it is a short walk or bicycle ride into the center city to work each day.
