  • Hopkins Avenue

  • Lafayette Avenue

    Plat document information:

Interesting Facts
When the 2nd subdivision was platted, a 35 foot strip of land for "park" purposes was reserved along both sides of Jefferson Avenue. This strip was extended to Ashland Avenue in subdivision number 1, thereby taking 35 feet from lots 189 to 192.

The street from Montgomery Pike to Monroe Avenue labeled "Hopkins Avenue" was later renamed "Ashland Avenue."
