"The initial settlement was roughly 1,200 acres and would be bound by todays North, South, East, and West Streets. Our modern day downtown is located on that original plot and from there, the rest of the citys historic neighborhoods and other development would spread."
2. Meet Our Neighborhoods: Anaheim Colony.
"Of the citys four historic districts, the Anaheim Colony is the largest and first to be adopted in 1997. Wonder why its called the Colony? Its boundaries match that of the original German colony founded in 1857. With over 1,000 qualified structures located inside the 1.8-square miles, the concentration is higher than the other districts. The four Anaheim Colony Monuments mark the entry points to the district."(Submitted on August 19, 2024, by Tatiana Zavala of Orange County, California.)
