Panoramic Hill is significant in the area of Architecture as a neighborhood that represents the Bay Area Tradition in architecture, primarily the first phase associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement. The district includes notable houses by architects Ernest Coxhead, Bernard Maybeck, Julia Morgan, Walter Steilberg, and others; a distinctive street plan; and paths and steps that provide pedestrian circulation. Since the north side fire of 1923, Panoramic Hill is among the most extensive surviving Arts and Crafts neighborhoods in Berkeley, which was the Northern California center of this important early twentieth century architectural movement. The district is significant for the period from 1901, when the first home was constructed, through 1950. Construction of significant new buildings dwindled during the 1940s and had virtually ended by that later date. A few significant architect-designed alterations took place to existing homes in the early 1950s. One home, the Feldman House at 13 Mosswood Road, was constructed in 1975 from a 1939 Frank Lloyd Wright design. - NRHP, 28 March 2005
