Hyde Park is a quaint and active central Austin neighborhood located north of 38th street, south of 51st, east of Guadeloupe, and west of Duval St.  Hyde Park was originally platted 1891 and still bears the history of Austin’s first suburb.  Many of Austin’s most elite residents found serenity in Hyde Park alongside blue collar workers over one hundred years ago, and still you can find an exciting array of residents.
