Shadow Lawn Historic District, Historic residential district in Austin, United States.

Shadow Lawn Historic District is a historic district in central Austin, Texas, made up of a cohesive collection of houses built in the southeast portion of Hyde Park during the late 1920s and 1930s. It is bounded by the north side of 38th Street, the south side of 39th Street, the east side of Avenue G and the west side of Duval Street. Many of its dwellings are modest Tudor Revival cottage bungalows, and unlike nearby Hyde Park bungalows they use masonry veneer rather than wood siding.

Shadow Lawn grew as a cohesive group of houses built in the southeast part of Hyde Park during the late 1920s and 1930s, bounded by 38th Street, 39th Street, Avenue G and Duval Street. Its significance rests on the architecture of those dwellings, and the district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

The district's name comes from Monroe M. Shipe's Shadow Lawn subdivision, laid out with concrete markers, some of which still stand. Shipe's own house sits at the corner of 39th Street and Avenue G. The Tudor Revival cottage bungalows of the 1930s, with modest detailing, set the area apart from nearby Hyde Park clusters.

The streets are easy to explore on foot since the properties are concentrated within a compact area of just a few blocks. Visitors can walk through and view the houses from different angles to appreciate their architectural details.

No other area in Austin's northern suburbs holds as dense a concentration of Tudor Revival dwellings as Shadow Lawn, which is what sets it apart from the nearby Hyde Park Historic District. The district's period of construction is the late 1920s and 1930s, and its houses were finished in masonry veneer rather than the cheaper wood siding used in Hyde Park's bungalows.
