Old Silk Stocking Neighborhood
At the turn of the 20th Century, Old Silk Stocking neighborhood was Norman's premier residential district. The young city's most distinctive homes were built here and many city leaders resided in the area. This neighborhood was regarded as a highly prestigious address—i.e. the ladies of this neighborhood could afford silk stockings.
