So far in NOTW, we've looked at Hills in the south, east, and west of Knoxville. That leaves North Knoxville's North Hills. North Hills is a historic community bordered by Cecil Avenue to the south, Whittle Springs Road to the west, Washington Pike to the north and Prosser Road to the east. According to the North Hills Area Association:
North Hills is one of the post World War I and pre-World War II subdivisions that sprouted in Knoxville. Brothers George, Hugh and Carl Fielden started developing North Hills in the spring of 1927. By 1928, forty-three homes had been built with some of Knoxville's most prominent families living in the area. Covering 185 acres, it was one of the largest subdivisions in Knoxville for its time. It was an upscale neighborhood that had its own private bus service to downtown Knoxville.
In addition, many famous Knoxvillians once called North Hills home, including Cas Walker and Patricia Neal.
