SOUTHDOWNS ESTABLISHED: 1923
NUMBER OF HOUSES: Depends on who’s naming the neighborhood’s boundaries but about 750.
DESCRIPTION: State of mind. A neighborhood of older residents, young professionals and students bounded roughly by Perkins Road, Whitehaven Street, Cloverdale Avenue and Glasgow Avenue. FUN FACT: Some of the street names have been changed, but when Southdowns was laid out north-south streets were named for Confederate generals (examples, Lee, Stuart Pickett) and east-west streets for native trees (examples, poplar, tupelo, cypress).
