But the real highlight of this property is its historical significance; the Cottage Hill district, Montgomery’s oldest remaining residential area, offers views of the Alabama River to the north and the downtown business district and Capitol center to the east. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, the district showcases architectural styles that capture the tastes and lifestyle of the urban middle class from 1840 to 1910.
448 Clayton St is among the oldest dated structures in the Historic Cottage Hill Community, dating back to the early settlement known as Henricks Plat.
