The district is composed primarily of three- or four-story brownstone residences that were constructed between 1868 and 1876. A number of well-known architects were involved in the development, including Richard Morris Hunt and James W. Pirrson. Through the efforts of its residents, among whom have been such notables as columnist Walter Lippmann; actors Tallulah Bankhead, Kim Novak,and Montgomery Clift; and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, the district has retained its peaceful elegance.
