The area designated is approximately the area bounded by Euclid Avenue on the east, East Jackson Street on the south, Glenwood Drive on the west, and Clay Street on the north. It was developed as Glenwood subdivision in 1925, by the developer and realtor J. B. Jemison. It was deemed significant in part "for its design by I. O. Freeman of Atlanta, a civil engineer who promoted a 'system of winding driveways and dignified home sites' with native vegetation and landscape features that are still apparent today."[2]
