Oak Crest (Part 6) – Rosedale Circle – Resubdivision

Weekly Acorn #35

In July 1927, Harmon Av was created on parcel 27 of Oak Crest and subdivided into small lots.   At the same time the west half of Rosedale Cr, which had already been created in May 1924 and subdivided into nice large sized lots, was resubdivided in to small lots like those on Harmon. 

Then, in October 1927, the east half of Rosedale Cr was resubdivided into small lots as well (lots 116 – 165).  However, there were a few exceptions.  Lots C, D, and F from the first subdivision remained the same.  One small lot adjacent to lot F was already sold and was labeled as lot 201 (currently where the house at 116 Rosedale Cr is located). 

Over the years lots C and F were eventually resubdivided.  Lot D remained as one large lot and is the only original sized lot of the first subdivision of Rosedale.  This lot is located at the corner of Rosedale and Polo currently where the house at 1210 Polo is located.

Lot T was the largest lot on Rosedale at just over 11 acres.  Lot T was resubdivided into lots 137  1/2, and 138-141 (if I measured correctly).  I will discuss lot 137 1/2 further in a later post.

This plat shows the resubdivision of Rosedale Cr (lots A – T) into lots (48 – 165; and 201).  Lots C, D, and F from the first subdivision remained the same, however in later years lots C and F were resubdivided also.  Click on the plat above to view an expanded version or visit the entire Historic Oak Crest Photo Gallery.
