Yaple Park.
A compact historic district just south of the Grand Canal.
Explore the district’s homes and setting, then take a practical look at buying or selling here.
Put it in context
A small district with a layered residential history.
Yaple Park follows the subdivision platted in 1929, just south of the Grand Canal. Its National Register documentation records Bungalow/Craftsman, Tudor/English Cottage, Southwest, Moderne, and Ranch architecture. The range is a reminder to look closely at each house rather than expecting one uniform neighborhood style.
The city’s local district map places Yaple Park between the Grand Canal, Turney Avenue, Third Avenue, and the alley east of Seventh Avenue.
The City’s local district and the National Register documentation describe boundaries differently in places. This graphic follows the City’s GIS boundary; verify the designation of an individual parcel directly with the City.

Buying in Yaple Park
Understand the home before the next step.
Understanding the property helps you plan for both daily use and ongoing care.
