Old West Side

The Old West Side is a residential neighborhood bounded by Fifth Avenue to the east, Kingsley to the north, Seventh on the west, and William on the south. Home to many graduate students and permanent residents, this area includes a wide variety of homes dissimilar in age, building style, or type – many dating from 1850 to 1925. Amid the quiet, tree-lined streets, residents can grab a treat at popular gathering spots such as the Jefferson Market & Cakery and Washtenaw Dairy. Sometimes, this collection of approximately two thousand households is referred to as "old German Town" or "Cabbage Town.” The Old West Side is one of twelve Historical Districts in Ann Arbor and was the first "streetscape" district to receive this designation in the country.
