Linwood Place is one of Oklahoma Citys oldest neighborhoods, platted in 1909. Several notable figures in founding OKC including John Shartel, Anton Classen, and John J. Harden were among the area’s original developers. The neighborhood, now in the heart of OKC, was originally marketed as an addition of secluded country estates at the end of a trolley line extending northwest from downtown Oklahoma City along Linwood Boulevard. Early Linwood Place was home to some of the city’s most prominent citizens, including Chris Schwab of Schwab Meat Company, Walter Kamp of Kamps Grocery, and Oscar Holderby of the OKC Stockyards. These early businessmen played a key role in leading the city’s early push toward growth and prosperity.
Today, Linwood Place is experiencing a renaissance right along with much of historic Oklahoma City. Many of the homes have been restored to their original charm. A diverse blend of families with young children, singles, and senior citizens make up the tight-knit community. The pedestrian-friendly, tree-lined neighborhood, complete with large city park and wide grassy median (site of the former trolley line) offers the perfect opportunity for neighbors and friends to be outside in the fresh air, enjoying one anothers company. Linwood Place offers a small-town feel just a stones throw away from all our city has to offer.
The 465-home neighborhood is bordered on the north by NW 23rd Street, on the south by NW 16th Street, on the east by Drexel Boulevard and on the west by Grand Boulevard/I-44.
