Many of the homes near Crestline Village have alleys and lanes on the backside. These alleys and lanes serve a number of different purposes. One, puts homeowners parking off of the street in backside garages and driveways. This opens up and allows more on street parking in the neighborhood itself. Also, rear alleys provide a place for children to play. In this one block of alley shown in the photograph, 75% of the homes had basketball goals and or other children's toys/recreational activities visible in and around their parking areas. Plus, alleys provide a place to put blighting household components. Namely, trash cans and a/c units and so on and so forth. This particular alley runs from the center of Crestline Village for about eight or nine blocks through a neighborhood.
