Audubon Park, Kentucky

Audubon Park is a home rule-class city[4] in central Jefferson County, Kentucky, United States.

Audubon Park was developed residentially in the early 20th century on 230 acres (0.93 km2) of hilly pastureland once owned by Gen. William Preston, who in turn had been granted the land in 1774 from the British government as payment for his services during the French and Indian War.

The land was sold to G. Robert Hunt in 1906, and the Audubon Park Country Club was built by avid golfer Russell Houston.

Most houses are traditional in design, with styles including Neo-colonial, Dutch colonial and Neo-federal, though some Craftsman-style California bungalows are present.

[6] The city is known for its straight, tree-lined streets (facilitated by rear utility lines where possible) and six small neighborhood parks.

According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.32 square miles (0.84 km2), all land.

The climate in this area is characterized by hot, humid summers and generally mild to cool winters.
