Garden Homes Historic District, Historic residential district in Milwaukee, United States.

Garden Homes Historic District comprises 93 two-story cottages holding 105 units, built 1921–1923 in a simplified Colonial Revival style. The houses follow one of nine exterior designs, varied by reversing floor plans and switching between front and side gables. A park sits between the lanes of North 26th Street at Port Sunlight Way and West Atkinson Avenue.

The district was established in 1923 and became the first public housing project in the United States under Mayor Daniel Hoan's leadership. This initiative marked a turning point in American housing policy.

The district reflects British garden city ideals, with private gardens and shared green spaces designed to bring neighbors together. This approach continues to foster a strong sense of community among residents today.

The district lies between West Atkinson Avenue and Port Sunlight Way, along North 26th Street, where the original Garden Homes park sits between the north and southbound lanes. The 93 buildings stand on flat, walkable blocks; the streets were renamed Congress, 25th and 26th after annexation. Look for the park as a midpoint when walking the neighbourhood.

The houses were built from just nine exterior designs, varied by reversing floor plans and swapping front and side gables. Streets first carried English garden-city names such as Ealing, Hampstead, Port Sunlight, Bournville and Letchworth, renamed Congress, 25th and 26th streets by the 1920s.
