[2] The district is largely on Woodlawn Street, a gravel dead-end extension of Iowa Avenue.
The eastern terminus of Iowa Avenue was originally planned to be a block to the west and was to be the location of the Governor's Mansion, but it was never built.
There is also a four-story Tudor Revival apartment building on Evans Street that was built in 1926.
All of the buildings are located on deep set-backs on large landscaped lots that provide seclusion and cohesion, which is what gives them their significance.
