The development of The Peacock Woods-Dimon Circle Historic District began in 1922. John Flournoy’s Peacock Woods subdivision comprises the northern half of the district and Samuel Kelly Dimon’s Dimon Circle subdivision, the southern portion.

The district includes a broad range of architectural styles including Colonial Revival, Craftsman, English Vernacular Revival, Spanish Colonial Revival and one
