Oakleigh Garden Historic District, Historic district in Mobile, United States.

Oakleigh Garden Historic District is a historic district in Mobile, Alabama, centered on Washington Square. It covers 1,453 acres and holds 288 contributing buildings, ranging from the 1820s to the 1940s, mostly in 19th-century styles. Its boundaries, first set at Government, Marine, Texas and Ann Streets, were extended in 1991 to Rapier Avenue, Selma, Broad and Texas Streets.

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 13, 1972, centered on Washington Square and originally bounded by Government, Marine, Texas and Ann Streets. A boundary increase on January 30, 1991, extended it to Rapier Avenue, Selma, Broad and Texas Streets. Its 288 contributing buildings date from the 1820s to the 1940s.

The neighborhood shows how wealthy families lived in the 1800s through the arrangement of homes and gardens throughout the area. The way buildings are designed still tells the story of social divisions from that period.

The district covers 1,453 acres (5.88 km2) around Washington Square, so plan a route before setting out; the 1991 boundary increase pushed the edges to Rapier Avenue, Selma, Broad and Texas Streets. It is a residential neighborhood, so view the 288 contributing buildings from the public streets.

Many houses in the neighborhood remain surrounded by their original gardens and landscaping, which inspired the district's name. These generous outdoor spaces are as much a part of its character as the buildings themselves.
