Its tree-lined streets, front-yard landscaping, and generous setbacks between buildings further add to its historic quality. Many of the Downtown's early merchants and civic leaders had homes located in this neighborhood. • The neighborhood on the south side of Stanley Boulevard consists of modest vernacular residences. All of the homes back onto the Arroyo del Valle, thus giving the neighborhood a uniquely unified theme. Originally called Livermore Road, this street was sparsely developed until the early twentieth century due to its distance from the Downtown commercial area. • The First Street, Second Street, and Third Street neighborhood presents a variety of architectural styles with homes been built over an 80-year time period. Many of the homes on First Street serve as fine examples of Victorian-style architecture. Homes located on Second and Third Streets vary from small cottages built by the Southern Pacific Railroad to more stately homes on the south end of Second Street built during the early 20th century.
