History

The Euclid St. Paul’s Neighborhood was orange groves from 1912 -1925, just prior to and around the time of it’s early development. The first subdivisions were Edina- Garden of Eden, Hilcrest, and Old Kentucky. The neighborhood developed on the east from 9th Street North (formerly Euclid Boulevard) westward to 16th Street North, and from 13th and 14th Avenues northward to 22nd Avenue. The entrance to the area was flanked by two brick columns located at the 14th Avenue North and 9th Street North entrance to Euclid Place. The largest homes in the neighborhood, situated on larger lots are located on 13th, 14th, and 15th Avenues North.

There is a great diversity of home styles in this area. The home styles and lots sizes in the western section of the neighborhood are more modest in scale and consistent in style. The northeastern section of the neighborhood has the largest number of duplex, triplex, and small, apartment buildings. Many of the homes have garage apartments which are accessible from the alley. Almost every home has alley access, which should be maintained and improved as needed for the use of all residents. Single family and duplex / triplex homes share the RO-1 zoning designation.

Works in Progress

A special committee is working on completion and submission of a traffic plan which will become an integral part of the Neighborhood Plan. A neighborhood traffic study is underway with regards to changing the one way streets at 12th Street North and 14th Street North to two way traffic. If the residents who are directly affected approve this change, the ESPNA will petition the City to implement the conversion, which will mostly involve regulatory signage; parking, speed, and stop signs. The neighborhood has been focused on safety issues making crime and traffic high priorities. Funding through the Police Department’s Forfeiture Fund provided “photo-cell” exterior light fixtures to residents, and is over 50%.
