Sobre
Fatos rápidos: Around 180 historic houses with a variety of architectural styles, from Greek Revival to Victorian, tempt visitors here. Originally, the neighborhood was land for wealthy plantation owners, reflected in the large residences.
Destaques: The oak avenue trees are often over a hundred years old and, together with the wrought-iron verandas, create a picturesque photo motif. A special tip: every second door in the neighborhood is a lively color that is traditionally said to bring luck.
