History[edit]
Rosedale Gardens was platted by the Shelden Land Company in the 1920s.[2] The company modeled the development on Rosedale Park in Detroit. The first houses in Rosedale Gardens were built in 1925. These houses were wood structures. When the Great Depression hit, construction stopped for a time; the developer bricked over existing homes, and continued with brick construction when building resumed later in the 1930s.[2]
