The Henry T. Oxnard Historic District is a 70-acre (28 ha) historic district that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. Covering approximately F and G Streets, between Palm and 5th Streets., in the downtown core of Oxnard, California, the district includes 139 contributing buildings and includes homes mostly built before 1925. It includes Mission/Spanish Revival, Bungalow/craftsman, Colonial Revival, and other architecture.[1] It includes five Prairie School and eight Tudor Revival homes.[2][3]

It consists of the houses built in two sub-divisions: the Henry T. Oxnard tract on F street and the Walter H. Lathrop tract on G Street, which were built during 1909-1941 and with the "vast majority" built before 1925. The two streets of homes are contiguous and "make an intact neighborhood that has remained unchanged for more than 70 years.... While many neighboring streets have some historic homes this is the only area that is unchanged and still has the spirit and feeling of the original turn of the century city of Oxnard."[2]

Neighborhood

The nearby J.A. Swartz Residence on Fifth Street is among the finer examples of the Spanish Colonial Revival style among homes in the downtown core.[4]
