The Homewood subdivision in North Minneapolis offers a rich history of cultural and socioeconomic trends that was developed in the early Twentieth Century. Homewood was intended to be a middle class neighborhood, which it continues to be today. The neighborhood features houses with a variety of architectural styles, over-sized lots, mandatory 35-foot front setbacks and stone pillars bearing street names that give the district a sense of identity and a distinct prominence.

Alex Young, intern architect with Collaborative Design Group, prepared the nomination for the potential historic district, which may come before the city council later this year.
