SUCCESS
After a year and a half of the lamp lights project we are ecstatic to have our lamp posts shining bright again. Through hard work and determination, a group of ONEN residents worked to locate then repair and rebuild the lamps. And after partnering with the Utilities Department were able have the electric updated and onthen April 14th they were returned to their rightful place. We are so ecstatic and appreciative to the team that made this happen!
The day the lights were unexpectedly taken down.
A joy to see! CSU putting our lights back up to shine on our neighborhood.
Visit the Lamplighters page to learn more about
the history of the lamps and the journey to bring them home.

Committees
Historic Preservation Initiatives
Over the years, whether it is in collaboration with the City or with each other, property owners have worked hard to maintain the neighborhood's historic character. From monitoring and contesting zoning issues, to the application for National Register status and writing its own Master Plan, the work continues and is prolific. Under this category you will find books that highlight volunteer efforts over the past sixty-three years to the present and celebrate the neighborhood architecture and history.
Events
We pride ourselves on being the neighborhood that is either like the one we grew up in or wished we had. We know our neighbors, and we like being neighborly. Under events, you will find a variety of family activities the neighborhood hosts on an annual basis. There are other more spontaneous events not sponsored by ONEN such as block parties, tea or coffee meet-ups, and holiday decorating of our beautiful homes.
