The Alta Vista–Camp Fornance–Newman Park Historic District, is a predominantly residential historic district in northwestern Columbia, South Carolina. It encompasses much of the neighborhood of Earlewood, and is formed out of three separate subdivisions that were developed as streetcar suburbs in the early 20th century. The district is about 225 acres (91 ha) in size, and has more than 550 residences, many in architectural styles popular in the first half of the 20th century. It is roughly bounded on the east and south by the tracks of the Seaboard Air Line, the morth by Earlewood Park and Lakewood Avenue, and the northwest by Darlington Avenue.[2]
