Welcome!
If you are new to Feldman's Neighborhood, welcome! We are an eclectic mix of students, homeowners, and individuals who love contributing to the area’s vibrancy and ongoing change. Many long-time residents have cared for this delightful neighborhood for decades, too. We’d like to introduce you to our community.
Feldman’s Neighborhood is bounded by Stone Avenue, Lee Street, Park Avenue, and Speedway Boulevard. You are a member of the Feldman’s Neighborhood Association (FNA) if you live, work, or own real property within these boundaries. Membership is open to businesses, agencies, and organizations. This is not a Home Owners Association, this is a simply a group of neighborhood residents joining together to improve the neighborhood and interact with the city as needed with concerns, neighborhood initiatives, ect.
Join in! Take some time to get to know the neighborhood and take part in its activities: We meet once per quarter, hold periodic social events, participate in Cyclovia when it traverses our community and are always open to hearing ideas on how to better connect our neighborhood. Our Little Free Library is on 1st Avenue near Adams Street. We hope that you will contribute your ideas and energy to making our neighborhood a better place—your opinion matters!
Volunteer! Twice a year, FNA organizes a neighborhood cleanup. Roll offs are provided for bulky trash, and everyone is invited to help clean up public areas by weeding, pruning, or picking up trash. Recently, we earned grants to plant over 50 trees and shrubs to make our streets more shaded and enjoyable to walk. Volunteers installed numerous storm water harvesting basins lining our streets to reduce flooding and to provide water for our streetscape.
