East End
The East End, like much of the rest of Boise, was first built in 1890. This area developed into a series of residential subdivisions, consisting of mostly single family homes. This district had the most rapid growth from 1910 to 1940, and it eventually grew to spread over thirty nine blocks.
Architecturally, twenty-nine percent of the homes in this district are in the Craftsman bungalow style. Other styles that are prominent in this area include Queen Anne Cottages, American Foursquare, and a few Mission Revival designs. These styles of homes are scattered through the area, making the district diverse in the exteriors of the home.
North End
Known as Boise’s first suburban development, the North End is historically significant to the area. The first neighborhood in this area was platted in 1878, which was only a few blocks between Ninth Street and Thirteenth Street -- from Resseguie to Fort Street. Thirteen years after being established, a race for the land in this area began as speculators rapidly purchased the land here. This began a building boom that lasted 25 years.
Homes in the North End area are predominantly modestly sized bungalows.
Hays Street
The Hays Street Historic District was massively developed during the beginning of the twentieth century, the majority of which still stand today. However, as the years passed, several homes were converted into offices or demolished for parking lots. It spans an area of just under twenty-two blocks, located in the northern half of the Original Boise Townsite.
Currently, this district has a mix of land uses, including residential multi-family homes as well as offices. Historical landmarks are still present including the Queen Anne architectural style, as well as Colonial Revival, Craftsman, and Minimal Traditional.
The Kelly Hot Spring was the inspiration behind the name of Warm Springs Avenue. A natural mineral spring, the water was utilized for both public and private uses in the area. This marks one of the first major usages of geothermal water in city waterworks. Because of this and the present of stately homes, Warm Springs was considered by the city as the most historically important local district. Today, Warms Springs Avenue still has grand homes with various styles in architecture.
Harrison Boulevard
A year after Idaho became a state in 1890, President Benjamin Harrison visited the fifth state he had signed into the Union. As an extension of appreciation, 17th Street was renamed to Harrison Boulevard. Because of this new association with the President, Harrison Boulevard and it's surrounding area became a very popular subdivision. Harrison eventually became one of the most innovated streets in the capital, being dubbed the “model road” by the City Engineer in 1916. This was due to the median parkway and street lights that were added to the road.
Excellent, stately homes were built in Harrison Boulevard, which accent the rolling natural terrain of the Foothills that crown the area. This is one of the most picturesque historical neighborhoods in Boise.
