Promoted as a high-end neighborhood patterned after the prominent Prospect Park district in Brooklyn, this area consisted of mostly smaller estates for prominent business people and northern investors. It was developed from 1920 to 1935 and became a city historic district in November 1993. The neighborhood has a high concentration of Mediterranean revival and Mission revival houses.
