Kenwood Historic District, Historic residential district in St. Petersburg, Florida, US.

Kenwood Historic District is a 375-acre residential area in St. Petersburg, Florida, bounded by 9th Avenue North, 1st Avenue North, 19th Street North and 34th Street North. It holds 2,203 historic buildings, mostly one- and two-storey single-family homes built between 1912 and 1945, with garages and garage apartments behind them. Bungalows make up more than half the houses; the rest range from Frame and Masonry Vernacular to Tudor, Mediterranean, Colonial and Dutch Colonial Revival, Prairie, Mission and International styles. Many avenues are still paved in brick, with hexagonal sidewalk pavers and high granite curbs.

The neighborhood grew rapidly during the Florida Land Boom of the 1920s, becoming one of the first suburban developments beyond downtown St. Petersburg. This period of expansion established the district's residential character and attracted many new residents.

The name Kenwood was given to the neighborhood when it was first platted in 1912. The LGBT community played a notable role in the revival that began in the early 1990s, and the district remains home to many gay residents and gay-friendly businesses. Monthly porch parties, the annual BungalowFest and Founders' Day draw visitors; St. Pete Pride, the largest in the state, was held here until it moved downtown in 2017.

The district sits on a plateau about 50 feet above sea level, higher than most of St. Petersburg. Many avenues are still brick, sidewalks are hexagonal pavers and curbs are high granite, so walk on the sidewalks where possible. The eastern edge is 19th Street North beside I-275; the southern boundary adjoins Grand Central.

More than half of the residential buildings are bungalows, giving the neighborhood a unified architectural presence. This concentration of bungalow-style homes creates a distinctive visual character throughout the district.
