On 14 May 1951, the area which would become 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]
The neighbourhood is located in the district of Ursynów, within the City Information System area of Natolin.[1][2] It consists of a housing estate of multifamily residential buildings, mostly built in the large panel system. It is placed between Pileckiego, Stryjeńskich, and Przy Bażantarni Streets, and Komisji Edukacji Narodowej.[1][5][3] The area is divided into four subsections: Wyżyny-Południe (South), Wyżyny-Środek (Centre), Wyżyny-Wschód (East), and Wyżyny-Zachód (West).[11]
