On June 17, 2025, the Crestwood Neighborhood Association officially merged with the neighboring communities of:
North Sherwood Terrace
Silver Maples
Summerfield
These areas are now fully part of Crestwood, forming one united neighborhood association. This decision was approved by resident vote and is formally recognized by the City of Fort Wayne.
A stronger collective voice in city conversations and planning
Unified identity and signage across all areas
Streamlined communication and leadership structure
Increased membership, resulting in more dues collected and a larger budget
More resources = more events, beautification projects, and neighborhood improvements
Together, we are building a more inclusive, active, and supportive community under one name — Crestwood.
