Where it is

On this page the area is the part of the Blossomwood Elementary zone outside the city’s Downtown area and zoned for Huntsville High: 4,575 address points, all in ZIP code 35801 and all inside city limits, so the city provides police, fire and garbage service. Downtown is to the west, Monte Sano to the east and Jones Valley to the south.

Five Points. The city made Five Points a historic preservation district in 1999, according to its historic districts page. It began as part of the 1892 East Huntsville Addition, which the city calls Huntsville’s first true suburb, built along a streetcar line, and it was annexed in 1925. The city says the houses trace middle-class housing through the 20th century: vernacular Victorian homes, 1920s and 1930s bungalows, Cape Cods and 1950s and 1960s ranches, on a grid of broad streets with deep lots and rear alleys. Of the district’s 584 address points, 566 are in this area; the other 18 are zoned for Lee High. The district’s annual PorchFest closed Pratt Avenue from Russell Street to Maysville Road on May 2, 2026, the city said.

Blossomwood takes its name from the Blossomwood Elementary zone and the Blossomwood Valley Civic Association on the city’s list. OpenStreetMap also names Longwood, Mayfair, Mountain Brook and Fagan Springs Estates as places inside the area.
