From its beginnings, the Union Triangle Neighborhood provided shelter for an unusually diverse population. Unlike the adjoining G.E. Realty Plot, which was developed exclusively for affluent professionals, the Union Triangle drew residents from many walks of life. Some homeowners were engineers for the new Edison Machine Works (General Electric). Others were superintendents from the locomotive works, store owners, attorneys, and college professors and deans. These prosperous homeowners lived side-by-side with working-class residents. Household servants often boarded in the homes of their employers. College students, factory workers, and day laborers rented rooms and apartments. The Union Triangle Neighborhood became a microcosm of turn-of-the-century society. Neighborhood architecture reflects the diversity of the people who lived here. Buildings range from simple two-family houses to elaborate, architect-designed homes. The Union Triangle Neighborhood is unusual in that it contains no geographical separation between costly custom homes and modest rental buildings.
