About Upper
Highlands
Upper Highlands, located between Malden Center and the Middlesex Fells Reservation, is a residential and hillside Malden neighborhood with triple-decker streetscapes and broad, tree-lined blocks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Salem Street and Lebanon Street crossroads, where corner markets, takeout counters, and everyday storefronts set a steady, local rhythm. The Forestdale Cemetery grounds add a quiet, historic edge to the area’s slopes. Pine Banks Park frames the neighborhood with ballfields and walking loops, while nearby trailheads pull the landscape toward the Fells. Housing reads as early-20th-century wood-frame homes and multifamily buildings, with porches and small yards shaping the streetscape. Malden Center’s arts-and-dining scene sits downhill, anchored by community staples such as Faces Brewing Co., Idle Hands Craft Ales, and the Malden Public Library.
