Summary

Significance: Mountain Brook is significant for planning and community development because it is a critical component of (and symbolically represents) an early and significant example of a planned community that included residential, commercial, recreational, and educational components. It is a fine example of the prevailing style of English village style and materials that became popular between the world wars and represented an ideal of success and accomplishment to which all energetic and ambitious men were aspiring.
