History
editOn 14 May 1951, the area which would becaome Wyżyny, was incorporated into the city of Warsaw.[4]
Beginning in 1981, throughout the 1980s, between Pileckiego, Stryjeńskich, and Przy Bażantarni Streets, and Komisji Edukacji Narodowej Avenue, was constructed the housing estate of Wyżyny, consisting of large panel system multifamily residential buildings. It was designed by Jacek Jan Nowicki.[1][5]
In 1990, the neighbourhood had the population of thirteen thousand people.[6]
Since 1994, in the neighbourhood operates the Wyżyny Housing Association (Polish: Spółdzielnia Mieszkaniowa „Wyżyny”), which had splintered from the Natolin House Constitution Association (Polish: Spółdzielnia Budownictwa Mieszkaniowego „Natolin”).[7]

In 2016, to the south from Pileckiego Street was opened the Silent Unseen Park.[9][10]
