Hill Crest Community Center is a historic community centre complex located at Clinton, Vermillion County, Indiana. The complex was built between 1911 an 1922 and consists of three interconnected buildings. The chapel was designed by noted architect Isaac Pursell and built in 1911. It is a 1 1/2-story, brick building with Queen Anne style design elements. The gymnasium / auditorium building was added in 1922, and is a barrel-vaulted roofed brick building with Late Colonial Revival style design elements. The two-story, brick Prairie School style residence was also added about 1922. The community center provided a focus of community service to the immigrant population of Clinton.
