The Palisades Highlands is an affluent housing development located in the upper Santa Ynez Canyon in the northern region of Pacific Palisades in Los Angeles, California. It consists primarily of houses and condominiums, has its own shopping center, and has access to several Topanga State Park trailheads.
History
In 1921, the land that is now known as the Palisades Highlands was purchased by Methodists. Over time, roads that were named after Methodist missionaries were developed and land was settled. Housing development in the Highlands is now reaching its final stage as residences are being built at the highest point at the northeast border between Pacific Palisades and Topanga State Park. The Highlands are the most recent large-scale development in Pacific Palisades.
