| Abstract | "Laid out in 1910 with a network of alleys and parks, Raleigh's streetcar suburb of Cameron Park was built out over the next four decades with houses of neighborly design, social homogeneity, and flexible household arrangements. After World War II, the neighborhood declined, like so many other urban neighborhoods. Beginning in the 1970s residents pushed to bring back the area's harmonious character. At the end of its first century, Cameron Park is a sylvan glade of venerable houses protected by neighborhood care and commitment."--Page 4 of cover. |
