D is for Dudley Heights

This house at the corner of Ross Avenue & Ross Court is fairly typical of the properties in East Greensboro's Dudley Heights- located between Lee and East Florida Streets from Highway 29 to Barber Park. It is a modest, single family dwelling, on one level, owned by a family that takes great pride in maintaining a nice lawn. Several lawns in the neighborhood, including the one in the photo above, have freshly sculpted topiaries. Most of the streets in this neighborhood are short; a natural way to control agressive driving. You cannot be in a hurry and drive through streets that twist and wind around a hilly neighborhood!

Dudley High School and the Academy at Linclon are nearby and many children walk to school and play in the neighborhood when school is not in session. The fabulous Barber Park and the 11-acre Gateway Gardens provide plenty of interactive entertainment the surrounding community members and the rest of Greensboro. With the financial investment of UNCG and NC A&T in their joint Research Park near here, we're predicting that this neighborhood will see an increase in property values. One interesting statistic for the neighborhood is that 79 % of the residents were born in North Carolina. 

Today is ABC Wednesday and, for this round, we're featuring neighborhoods of Greensboro. D is for Dudley Heights. See A-C here and suggest your neighborhood for E-Z in the comments below.

It does look like a well maintained house and yard. Great idea to use a neighborhood for the letter D. Carver, ABC Wed. Team

I'm in favor of roads that slow down the DRIVERS!

I love a tidy landscape, but hope not too much water was wasted to keep it that way...
