Oakleigh Garden District

Surrounding Oakleigh Mansion and Washington Square, it contains some of the city's finest late 19th-century residences. The district is characterized by architectural details that followed individual tastes rather than an adherence to strict stylistic designs. Many residents moved to this neighborhood from De Tonti Square and Church Street East in the early 1900s when it became a fashionable residential area, resulting in a mix of newer mansions set among modest cottages and simple houses. Government Street is known for its canopy of oaks.
