This neighborhood is sometimes known as "the Wedge" because of it's triangular shape.

Lowry Hill East has a diverse range of homes, from Victorian-era styles to modest, single-family homes. Some of the more elegant properties of yesteryear have been converted in multiple-unit residences. In recent years, the area has seen larger modern condos and apartment complexes added to the neighborhood.
