Neighborhood

Around 1900, it was determined that Raleigh needed some suburbs -- the streetcar was available by then, and residents could move a little farther from the city center. Several neighborhoods were created between 1910 and 1950: Hayes Barton, Georgetown, Roanoke Park, Vanguard Park, and Bloomsbury. These five neighborhoods were clustered around the five-point intersection of Glenwood Avenue, Whitaker Mill Road, and Fairview Road. Today, those five neighborhoods are known as the Five Points Historic Neighborhoods.

There are four historic districts within Five Points: the Vanguard Park District, the Bloomsbury District, the Roanoke Park District, and the Hayes Barton District. Each district has its own characteristics, making the Five Points neighborhood one of the most unique and diverse in Raleigh. Housing ranges from 1900s bungalows and cottages to more elaborate Colonia Revival and Queen Anne style homes.
