"A pleasant tree-lined street"

Woodford Rd. in the culturally diverse Kennedy Heights is so green and grassy, it feels almost rural. It's a mostly residential street with well-maintained homes of all sizes, styles and construction. The single family homes have large yards shaded with trees. Along this section of Woodford you'll also find a number of apartment buildings from four family to multi-unit. Woodford is a short drive downhill to Coca Cola, 5th/3rd Operations Center and all the other businesses and social service agencies in Madisonville.

You'll find businesses on Woodford Rd. as well. The Redwood Carryout has been at the corner of Kennedy and Woodford for several decades. For over 100 years Harry Ewers and Sons has operated a building supplies, gravel and blacktop business on a lot that begins at Kennedy and ends at Robison Rd. If you head east, you'll find Benken Florist located at the sharp curve where Woodford Rd. becomes Plainfield Rd.
