Heritage Square - Oxnard

Heritage Square - Oxnard

The City of Oxnard purchased a series of Victorian and Craftsmen style houses and moved them out of the path of development.  The houses have been arranged facing inward with a center square as a focus point and sold to private individuals for uses as offices, restaurants and specialty retail.  We had lunch in one of the houses in a cafe named "La Dolce Vita".

La Dolce Vita



Docents in period costume gave a brief talk on the history of the Square and then led us on a walking tour.

The Square has a unique blend of beautiful period homes saved from the wrecking ball.
