Santa Rosa is a city with history, and there are some neighborhoods with properties that reflect this history, it’s obvious when you drive through or visit friends in these neighborhoods or even better, when you live in one of these neighborhoods. The most known are Railroad Square Historic district, Burbank Gardens and the McDonald Historic district. There is a new one, it’s called the Ridgeway Historic District. These 4 districts come to my mind, if you know of an other one, please let me know.
We have a rich architectural heritage: Carrillo Adobe from the Mexican period, Gothic and Greek revival, Queen Anne, Italiante, Stick/Eastlake styles and the Craftsmen and California Bungalow styles (my favorite). The city of Santa Rosa has a some great information about the subject on their website.
