Brookwood North Historic District in Valdosta, Georgia is a historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. The listing included 218 contributing buildings and a contributing site, as well as 88 non-contributing buildings. Its 175 acres (0.71 km2) area is roughly bounded by Patterson St., Georgia Ave., Oak St., Park Ave., Williams St. and Brookwood Dr.[1]

The district includes architectural work by Lloyd B. Greer, Felton Davis, and others. It includes 48 homes designed by Greer, a local Valdosta architect, including his own home at 114 Alden Street. Three English Vernacular Revival-style houses by him, named "Faith", "Hope", and "Charity" are along East Alden and have large front-gabled facades and steeply-pitched roofs. Another of Greer's works is the International-style house at 1407 Williams Street.[2]

It includes the entirety of three areas developed as subdivisions:

  • Pine Park/Victory Subdivision, developed in 1921, a four-block area north of East Alden
  • Moore-West Land Company, developed in 1923, area of Patterson St., Georgia Ave., and Park Ave.
  • Dasher-West Subdivision, developed in 1927.[2]
