Beverly Place

I don’t know why I had never seen this short little street that goes for one block in between Delmar and the 5400 block of Enright.

The houses all seem to date to the first decades of the Twentieth Century, and are a range of styles, often in the same house.

This house, right on the corner, looks both to Delmar and Beverly Place.

This is an interesting house, shrouded in trees and clad in stone.

You can see in the Sanborn below that the neighborhood was in the process of converting from large, “suburban” estates with single wood frame houses to organized subdivisions with brick houses.  Large apartment buildings would come later and claim the two neighbors to the west of Beverly Place.  Also, you might notice that St. Luke’s Hospital was just a block west as well.
