Eugene L. Kenyon, Willis Thrall, and Sylvanus Cone, the local urban knights, grabbed martinis and cigars, and decided to dole out charm to the common folks of West End. Originally individual dwellings, these houses are now slice-shared among neighbors, each owning a piece of the original, broken pie. The developers' grid pattern is still evident, with renamed streets: Park Street, Lake Street, and a mocking new title for Oxford Street. If Prospect Avenue is the grand ball, then Oxford-Whitney is the quirky coffee shop, a place where the old and new waltz together, each with their own rhythm.
