Cloverdale Historic District, Historic district in Montgomery, Alabama.

Cloverdale Historic District is a neighborhood in Montgomery, Alabama, containing about 463 buildings mostly from the mid and late 1800s. The architecture shows Revival and Victorian styles spread across tree-lined streets between Norman Bridge and Cloverdale Roads.

The area was originally purchased in 1817 by William Graham and called Graham's Woods. The name changed to Cloverdale in 1892, named after the clover plants that grew abundantly in the area.

The district's name comes from the clover that once grew here; it was renamed Cloverdale in 1892. Its 463 contributing buildings and four structures, built from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries, show the residential styles favored in Montgomery over that period. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 12, 1985.

The neighborhood stretches between Norman Bridge and Cloverdale Roads, with shopping areas at Five Points and Cloverdale Village. You can walk through easily and explore several blocks at your own pace.

Writer F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife Zelda lived in this neighborhood during the 1920s. Years later, the streets were used as a filming location for Tim Burton's film 'Big Fish' in 2003.
