Following a succession of owners, an architecture museum, the Virginia Center for Architecture, took occupancy in 2005 of  Branch House on Monument Avenue, a residence designed in the Tudor style by the firm of John Russell Pope in 1914.

The Fan is often incorrectly described as significant for having one of the longest intact stretches of Victorian architecture in the United States, but most of it was actually built after the end of the Victorian era and is arguably more Edwardian and Revival in style.
 Almost all of the housing stock was constructed in the first decades of the twentieth century and exhibits the pared back victorianism of Edwardian architecture.
 Colonial Revival and American Craftsman architecture is common as well, with Revival architectural types arguably the most common (as was common to the time period) Revivalism (architecture).

Primary architectural styles represented include: 
Italianate
Richardsonian Romanesque
Queen Anne
Colonial Revival
Other architectural styles include:
Tudor Revival
Second Empire
Beaux-Arts
Art Deco
Spanish
Gothic Revival
Bungalow
American Arts and Crafts Movement
James River Georgian
Southern Colonial
Jacobethan (Jacobean Revival)
