Dayton View Historic

Dayton View Historic is the kind of neighborhood where history doesn’t just sit on a plaque—it greets you as soon as you turn on one of the streets. Created from the late-1800s vision of landowner James Oliver Arnold, the area was carefully planned with broad streets, generous lots, and room for grand dreams.

The vision for those homes developed beautiful Victorians, Queen Annes, American Foursquares, and Prairie-style homes. The architecture still stands as one of the neighborhood’s greatest treasures.

Through the decades, Dayton View has weathered change, reinvention, and renewal, eventually earning its place as one of the city’s treasured historic districts. Restored homes and ongoing preservation give the area a sense of pride and continuity.

Today, strolling through Dayton View feels a little like stepping back in time—only with the warm sense that the story is still unfolding. It’s a neighborhood full of character, charm, and community, inviting new neighbors to become part of its rich history.
