"The Downtown Historic District contains an exceptional concentration of older homes that typify the city's social and architectural diversity over the period of its early growth, from the 1860s through the turn of the century. All major architectural styles that were adopted locally during those years can be found in this area. Examples range from architect-designed mansions of community leaders to the simple cottages of working people." (visit link)
