The historic Los Robles subdivision, just east of Lake Ella and adjoining midtown, was developed beginning in the 1920s and began a trend of expansion to the north of downtown. Los Robles is Spanish for "The Oak Trees" named after the centuries-old live oaks throughout the neighborhood.

After decades of neglect the gate underwent a $150,000 restoration in 2006, with a steel structural arch and new Ludowici tiles.[3]
