Description	Acquisition of property for what would become Parkview began as early as 1901 by the Parkview Realty and Development Company. Beredith Realty Company was the developer, and the area was often referred to as the Beredith Tract. The Parkview plat was filed in 1905. This photograph is part of a three-photo panorama taken from Washington University. The Chicago, Rock Island, Pacific Rail Road tracks and a train are in the foreground, paralleling Berlin Avenue (renamed Pershing Avenue). Diagonally on the right is Skinker Road. Most of the houses that appear in this photograph are east of Skinker Road. Only a few on the left are in Parkview.
