Hampton Cove is one of Huntsville's newest Historic Preservation District, established in 1999. The neighborhood which began about 1892 was established with a range of middle-class homes in 20th century Huntsville. The homes include a collection of modest one and two-story vernacular Victorian homes, a variety of Bungalows that experienced great popularity in the 1920's and 30's, modest Cape Cods homes, which were then succeeded by the Ranch style homes, fashionable in the 50's and 60's.
The neighborhood still reflects the 19th century style layout of broad, parallel streets, narrow but deep lots, and rear service alleys; the streets can be classified pedestrian-oriented streets.

A HAMPTON Inn & Suites slated for U.S. 431 and Caldwell Lane will be the first hotel in the Big COVE area.
Developers and city officials are expected to gather today to launch construction of the four-story, 52,000-square-foot building. The $8.5 million project is a development of Hospitality Group LLC of Huntsville. Integral Hospitality Solutions of Birmingham will manage the 95-room hotel.
Developers were attracted by the site's proximity to the golf courses at the HAMPTON COVE subdivision, part of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail, said Debbie Morris, general manager of Hospitality Group.
The area's growth also came into play, said Bill Harris, director of development for Integral Hospitality.
"It's a fast-growing area with a large population base. Restaurants are popping up, and stores are starting to come in," Harris said. "The hotel is the missing component."
Harris said the HAMPTON Inn will have an outdoor swimming pool, a solarium, trellised patios and a party deck with views of Big COVE Creek.
"With the mountain and all, it's a beautiful area," he said.
About 30 percent of the rooms will be suites. Services will include a complimentary breakfast, fitness center, free local phone calls and high-speed Internet access. The hotel is expected to open next fall.
Morris said the HAMPTON Inn will be built on 2.4 acres of a 31-acre site the group plans to develop into offices, stores and restaurants. She declined to give details on any future tenants.
City Planning Director Dallas Fanning said the HAMPTON Inn represents the first hotel to be built in the city limits on the east side of Huntsville Mountain. He said the hotel should spur more growth in the area.
"I think it will lead to more restaurants, which is a need there," Fanning said. "When we talked to (the developers) early on, the location of the golf course was important to the location of the hotel.
"I think it's a good location and a growing neighborhood."
