About the area
The Eldridge/West Oaks area has grown from rural sprawling ranches just 30 years ago, to booming residential developments, energy, and business growth. There are numerous facilities and attractions within or adjacent to the Eldridge/West Oaks SN, including the Terry Hershey Park Trail System and the Ray Miller Park (located on Eldridge Parkway). Also within the SN's boundaries is the Archbishop Joseph A. Fiorenza Park, located just north of Westpark Tollway, and the George Bush Park just to the west. The new Kendall Library sits on the border of EWOSN and is a state of the art library, as well as a community center. The library has several meeting rooms and an indoor basketball court!
