Cliff Road

Cliff Road is a 1.25-mile long residential road on the north slope of Red Mountain, stretching from Highland Avenue at Rushton Park on the west, continuing eastward between Altamont Park and the Highland Park Golf Course, to meet Altamont Road at its eastern end.

The westernmost section, between Highland Avenue and 33rd Street South was formerly known as Holly Road, and later, Lower Cliff Road.

Much of Cliff Road was developed by Robert Jemison Jr and Hill Ferguson as part of the Mountain Terrace subdivision.
