Plymouth Avenue can be divided into 3 distinct sections.

The southern most portion of Plymouth Ave, and its shortest run, is a small dead end street running north from Elmwood Avenue. The southern section is separated from the middle section due to the Brooks Landing Project.
Famous residents have included Francis Tumblety, though the street was called Sophia Street when he lived there.
