The Buena Park Historic District is a residential historic district in the

Classical Revival. The district's apartment buildings were designed in part to match the character of its houses, as doing so portrayed a sense of luxury and domesticity to its affluent residents; as a result, they largely used the same styles as the twentieth-century homes and often included courtyards to replace lawns.[2]

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 13, 1984.[1]
