More about heights
The Heights is part of the “The Pulaski Heights” development that includes Hillcrest and The Heights. Pulaski Heights was incorporated in 1903 and annexed to Little Rock in 1916. Both areas have developed their own personalities from the earliest days. The street that runs through both suburbs, Kavanaugh, is named after the founder of the Little Rock Baseball Association.
The areas were so named because the top of the area is “The Heights” and the bottom is “Hillcrest.”
