Queen Anne District616 viewsThe northern section of Queen Anne, as seen across Union Lake from Kite Hill in the Gas Works Park. Queen Anne Hill and District take their name from the fact that many of the houses built in the late 19th and early 20th century were in the Queen Anne style, a variant of Victorian. (The name refers to the British queen who reigned from 1702 to 1714, though the style actually has nothing to do with her or her time.)
