Its houses, largely in period revival styles, are described as an exceptionally large collection of Georgian Revival dwellings, and the nomination argues it is a notable collection of early twentieth-century architecture. It is also tied to the growth of Raleigh's Five Points suburbs and the role of the automobile.","narrative":"Built as a planned suburb beginning in 1920 on rolling land northwest of downtown Raleigh, the Hayes Barton Historic District was laid out by landscape architect Earle Sumner Draper for developers Dan, Frank, and William Allen. Its gently curving streets follow the contours of the land and wrap around Potomac Park, a naturalistic median created from a small stream, where the largest houses sit on a rise overlooking the green. Most houses date from the 1920s and reflect period revival styles, especially Georgian Revival, with Tudor Revival, Dutch Colonial Revival, and Craftsman examples as well. Local builders Howard E. Satterfield and J.W. Coffey and Son constructed many of the homes, and architects including William H. Deitrick and Thomas W. Cooper designed others. The district is listed for its planning by Draper, a regionally significant designer, and for the concentration of architecture from the 1920s to the early 1950s.","period_of_significance":"1920-1952","architect_builder":"Earle Sumner Draper (landscape architect); William H.
