WHERE WE SERVE |

The West Hill Neighborhood Organization (WHNO) was founded by West Hill residents and became an official entity with the State of Ohio in 1997. It was originally formed as a member organization with a focus on preserving the historical fabric of the local community. Through the efforts of WHNO and the surrounding neighborhood, the Hall Park Allotment Historic District (Oakdale Ave.) was listed on the National Historic Register in 2002.
Currently the organization is focusing on promoting the Unified Public District 40 (UPD40) special zoning area featuring service businesses within homes. A UPD40 Community House is being planned to demonstrate the housing concept. . |
