It spans parts of many avenues and streets and includes about 450 primary buildings, nearly all of them houses, along with a school and a church. The land was farmland until the Bristol Land Company surveyed it in 1890 for a planned new city. That plan faltered when iron industry growth fell short, and the area instead became an upper- and middle-class neighborhood, with most building between 1910 and 1930. The houses show Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Spanish Revival and Craftsman/Bungalow designs, including several Airplane Bungalows with raised monitor roofs. Local architect Clarence B. Kearfott designed several notable homes and the 1914 Virginia High School. Many original garages and outbuildings remain. About 96 percent of the primary buildings contribute to the district, which keeps the character of an early twentieth century neighborhood.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Clarence B.
