Explain contributing and noncontributing resources if necessary. Begin with a summary paragraph that briefly describes the general characteristics of the property, such as its location, setting, size, and significant features.) Summary Paragraph The Boulevard Park Historic District consists of 292 lots and 6 associated landscape features, built on a 37.5 acre parcel of land originally purchased by the Park Realty Company in 1905. The district is located within the original boundaries of the city of Sacramento, generally between the blocks of B and H Street to the north and south and 20th to midway between 22nd and 23rd Streets to east and west, encompassing a total of 15 city blocks, not including two parcels that lack historic integrity (see section 10.) A series of landscaped street medians run through two north-south streets, 21st and 22nd Street, and give the neighborhood its name. A one-block city park on the neighborhood’s north edge, three small parks located in the center of city blocks, and landscaped strips between sidewalk and street contribute to the neighborhood’s park-like feel. Building construction was governed by covenants, codes and restrictions (CC&Rs) that dictated minimum setbacks and uses. Houses in the district are eclectic in style, including Craftsman, Colonial Revival, Classical Revival, Prairie, Spanish Eclectic and Tudor Revival, with later Minimal Revival and California Bungalow buildings and several relocated Victorian era buildings, but their similarity in setback and scale created a uniform streetscape that is still apparent throughout the district. The southern edge of the district, closest to the original streetcar line, contains larger lots and more impressive houses. The northern edge of the district was closest to a heavy freight and passenger railroad and regional interurban railroad. It features smaller lots and houses whose arrangement is consistent in pattern with the rest of the district. The district retains a high degree of integrity, with 242 district contributors (including 6 landscape features and 236 buildings) and 56 non-contributing buildings. ________________________________________________________________________ Narrative Description See attachment 8.
