It has 17 contributing buildings, mostly houses built between 1880 and 1910, plus an apartment house added in 1928.","why_significant":"The district is presented as an excellent example of an 1880-1930 upper middle class Columbus neighborhood. Its oval street with two landscaped islands departs from the city's usual grid plan. The houses reflect local residential tastes from Italianate to Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Shingle styles, and were home to prominent business and professional men.","narrative":"Hamilton Park is a wide, oval street on the Near East Side of Columbus, lined with late nineteenth and early twentieth century houses and divided by two landscaped islands. It was the easternmost and last-developed of three streets in the East Park Place Addition, platted in the 1870s as a deliberate departure from the city's usual grid. The district holds 17 contributing buildings, several with carriage houses, built mostly between 1880 and 1910, with a Tudor Revival apartment building added in 1928. Styles run from Italianate to Queen Anne, Colonial Revival and Shingle. Notable examples include a buff brick residence at 43 Hamilton Park and a stone house with a conical-roofed turret at 91. City directories show residents who were business and professional leaders, including a law firm founder, a bank president and manufacturing executives. Only two 1960s brick apartment buildings do not fit the district's historic character. The area was listed for its architecture, its street plan and its role as an upper middle class neighborhood.","period_of_significance":"1880-1910, 1928","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Italianate, Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Shingle, Tudor Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is marked excellent and good, with some alterations.
