Pleasant Valley, Little Rock, Arkansas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pleasant Valley is the among the older western neighborhoods of the city of Little Rock, Arkansas. The area is to the northwest of Breckenridge and west of Colony West. Pleasant Valley lies to the south of the hillier Pleasant Ridge and Walton Heights areas, and mostly to the east of St. Charles.
The neighborhood is anchored by the westernmost portion of Rodney Parham Road, named for an influential former Pulaski County judge, and landmarks such as Pleasant Valley Country Club, large houses of worship including Fellowship Bible Church, Pleasant Valley Church of Christ and Temple B'nai Israel, and moderate to upscale retail and restaurants. Additionally, several real estate agencies and other professional service firms conduct business from headquarters or branch offices in the neighborhood.
Much of the residential development of Pleasant Valley, evidence of Little Rock's continual westward expansion and migration, has stemmed from the late 1960's and early 1970's. A significant number of apartment communities in the neighborhood and large homes adjoining the country club were built following the creation of an interchange at Rodney Parham Road's intersection with Interstate 430 in 1970.
