The Old North Davis Neighborhood Association (ONDNA) is one of several Neighborhood Associations in Davis. The boundaries of Old North Davis are 5th, 7th, B, and G streets. There is an interesting book called "Old North Davis: Guide to walking a traditional neighborhood" by John Lofland that includes more details and history of this area of town. It is available at Bogey's Books, the Hattie Weber museum, and the Davis public library.
The Old North is one of the three 'heritage' neighborhoods in Davis, that is, neighborhoods designated by the City as "conservation districts" with special "overlay" zoning. Along with the downtown area, these neighborhoods contain almost all of Davis' 'Landmark' and 'Merit Resource' designated historic structures. Old North is an area of lively infill, adaptive reuse, renovation & rehabilitation activity. The houses in this neighborhood tend to have amazing basements; one such basement is that of the house F and 6th and another is that of 512 F Street.
Like all the Davis Neighborhood Associations, the ONDNA is a grass roots democratic organization of residents (not an owners' association). Membership is open to residents, land owners (residents or not), and area organizations.
