Rose Park, Long Beach, California
- Rose Park, Long Beach, California
Rose Park and Rose Park South are two neighborhoods in Long Beach, CA.
History
The Rose Park Historic District gains its name from the small circular park on Orizaba Avenue at the intersection of 8th St. The park was donated to the city in 1910 by the Alamitos Land Company.
These neighborhoods were first settled in 1905, with subdivisions continuing until 1921. Most of the homes built in this early period through the 1920's are Craftsman Bungalows. Some houses in the 20's were build in the Prairie/Mission Revival style, and in the 30's and 40's Ranch style and Neo-Traditional houses were built in the district.
Location
Rose Park and Rose Park South are adjacent and combine to make two city historical districts. To the south of Rose Park South are the neighborhoods of Carroll Park and Bluff Heights, and to the east is Belmont Heights.
