Citycrest

Greater Avenues, locally referred to as “the Aves,” is a sprawling community northeast of Downtown Salt Lake City. This neighborhood offers the best of both worlds: easy access to downtown and proximity to the Wasatch Mountains. Greater Avenues sits just north of the University of Utah and encompasses part of the Tomahawk Natural Area. This green space blooms with an abundance of flowers and offers extensive hiking trails and sweeping views of Salt Lake City. The area is a haven for students, faculty, and staff, so there’s a wide range of housing to choose from, ranging from affordable to upscale. Small businesses like Hatch Family Chocolates add to the area’s small-town charm, while proximity to City Creek Center gives residents premier access to diverse retailers and restaurants in lavish surroundings.
