Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Audubon Place Historic District, in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, is a Шаблон:Convert historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]

It includes all 37 homes on Audubon Place, a curved cul-de-sac street entered off University Blvd. in Tuscaloosa, as well as five properties going further down University Blvd. Specifically it includes numbers 1515 to 1707 on the odd-numbered side of University Blvd., and numbers 8 to 37 on Audubon Place. Just 32 of the buildings are deemed contributing, however.[2] The entrance to the cul-de-sac is marked by "two massive concrete aggregate piers" and the street gradually climbs upward from there.[2] The street forks, with the right fork going to a circular end, and the left exiting out onto a one-way street.[3]

The neighborhood was designed by landscape architect Samuel Parsons Jr. (1844-1923).[2] It was a development by developer Mims P. Jemison (c.1860-c.1915), "a prominent Tuscaloosa businessman who envisioned the subdivision as a haven for young middle class families, many of whom later achieved higher economic, professional and social status." The street was lined with oak trees planted by Mary Torrey Jemison.[2]
