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 was taken in the spring of 1907, and the first group of houses in the 6200 block of Waterman had been built. The street in the foreground is Berlin Avenue (renamed Pershing Avenue). The Woman's Magazine Building is just visible between the first and second houses on the left. |
