Roughly, along Race Street, W. 6th Street, W. 7th Street, and Shillito Place (Central Business District)
Significance: With a period of significance from 1877 to 1952, the Race Street Historic District exemplifies the transition in architecture from low-scale revival styles of Greek Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Romanesque Revival, Renaissance Revival, and Jacobethan to the newer Commercial and Moderne. The district includes a total of 25 low- and mid-rise commercial buildings ranging in height from 2 to 12 stories, with the average height of 4- to 6-stories tall. All the buildings are built to the sidewalk line and have 1- or 2-story storefronts that have been changed over time.
