201 N Pierce St Unit 8

Rows of quirky staircases carved from the hillsides lead to historic homes perched atop green lawns that slope toward the street. Across the narrow strip of asphalt, neighboring houses feature the opposite -- staircases leading down to homes tucked away in a gulch. Trees shade sidewalks that lead through the historic neighborhood to a tiny shopping district, and it all comes together to create a homey, slightly askew, but completely lived-in vibe that residents of Hillcrest adore.

With a history dating to around 1890, Hillcrest is considered one of Little Rock's first suburbs. The neighborhood is adjacent to downtown on its southeast side, and it is directly north of the Little Rock Zoo and War Memorial Stadium. The University of Arkansas at Little Rock is about three blocks south of the neighborhood.
