Behind the stadium and the park it is a straightforward residential neighborhood, and a reasonably priced one for how central it is. The middle of the range was built in 1978, spread fairly evenly across the 1960s through the early 1990s, with about a quarter of the homes older than 1960. The typical house runs a little over 1,700 square feet on about a fifth of an acre.
Harlow usually sells for less than Cal Young next door and well under Fairmount, for an address that is arguably closer to the things people come to Eugene for — the river, the park system, the stadium and downtown over the bridge.
Alton Baker Park and the River
Alton Baker is the largest developed park in Eugene and it forms the whole southern edge of this neighborhood — the Cuthbert Amphitheater, the duck pond, the disc golf, and miles of riverside path that connect west toward downtown and east toward Springfield. For a lot of Harlow buyers that path is the actual reason they chose the neighborhood, because it turns a daily walk or a bike commute into something you would do anyway.
The other half of the appeal is how quickly you reach everything else. Downtown is over the Ferry Street Bridge, the university is a short ride past it, and Interstate 105 is right there for anyone commuting to Springfield or beyond.
