Near East Side Community

Cottage Home neighborhood is a near east side community, bounded by 10th, Oriental, and Michigan Streets, and I-70. The neighborhood gets its name from the large collection of cottage style of houses built between 1870 and 1900.

Community Owned Park

Cottage Home is known for our beautiful, tree-lined streets and the community-owned park in the heart of the neighborhood.  This community space boasts a unique shelter with glass bottle wall and art walls, a micro-library, plantings of flowers & fruit trees, community garden plots, bee hive and a playground for the kids.  The space is open to the public, but is also available for private parties, such as weddings, graduation celebrations, and large birthday events (see Community Space Rental for details).
