Snake Alley Details

The Crookedest Street in the World - constructed in 1894 as a way for the residents of Heritage Hill to access downtown, this switchback brick street has five half-curves and two quarter-curves over a distance of 275 feet, rising 58.3 feet from Washington Street to Columbia. Beautiful in every season, it is home to the Snake Alley Criterium bike races each Memorial Day weekend and the Snake Alley Art Fair each Father's Day.
