While today the neighborhood encompasses not only the original Hyde Park subdivision between 38th and 45th Street, but also the northern Hyde Park Annex from 45th to 51st Street, for this tour we are focusing on the older section of the neighborhood south of 45th. The construction dates of six the six historic homes featured on the tour range from 1892 to 1935, and the seventh home was constructed this year. These homes represent various types of architecture including Victorian and bungalows.
In the early years of the Association, we were struggling to save our neighborhood and its historic homes. This year, in celebrating the AssociationŐs thirtieth anniversary, the tour is a remarkable display of neighborhood pride showing what we have accomplished in the course of those thirty years.
This event is HPNA's main fundraising event of the year. The proceeds of the tour are earmarked for furthering the neighborhood's historic preservation efforts and the quality of living in Central Austin.
We would like to express
