Pimmit Barn on Cherri Drive was built in 1937 for the Smith family dairy farm. After the farm was sold for development, the barn housed a community well. The property passed from the county water authority to the Park Authority in 1997.

The wooden welcome signs at Lisle Avenue and Pimmit Drive were installed in 2005 using money originally raised in the 1960s for a neighborhood swimming pool. The pool was never built, but its fund eventually paid for a different neighborhood project.
Sixty residents organized the Pimmit Hills Citizens’ Association in March 1951. Membership is voluntary, and its work includes neighborhood issues, the Pimmit Hills Dispatch newsletter and community events. It is a civic association rather than a homeowners association.
