El Morado Court was originally designed for Model-T and horse-and-buggy passage, making it one of the narrowest and most unique streets in the City. The neighborhood also contains a variety of Craftsman Bungalows, Period Revival style homes, and the largest collection of Prairie and Pueblo Revival style homes in the City. Also located within this neighborhood is Central School, which is one of two historic elementary schools left in Ontario.
