Shadow Lawn Historic District

The neighborhood features Tudor Revival houses with masonry veneer exteriors along tree-lined streets between 38th Street and 39th Street in central Austin.

Monroe M. Shipe developed this residential area from the Tinsley Tract in the 1920s, establishing a subdivision that became part of the National Register in 1990.

The district contains 41 properties, with 25 structures maintaining their original architectural elements from the early 20th century development period of Austin.

The district extends across Avenue G, Avenue H, and Duval Street, providing walking opportunities through the 3800 blocks of these residential streets.

Early residents selected expensive masonry veneer for their houses instead of wood siding, setting this neighborhood apart from other areas in Hyde Park.
