Old North Davis

Old North Davis stands out as a historic, walkable neighborhood that channels early-20th-century charm and community values. Its proximity to downtown and UC Davis makes it appealing to young professionals and students, while its preservation efforts and leafy streets reflect a strong sense of neighborhood pride. It lies just north of downtown between 5th Street (south), 7th Street (north), B Street (west), and the railroad tracks (east). This area was slowly built between the 1910s and 1940s.

Any exterior renovation project must be sensitive to maintain the historic character of the building.
