"The Moscow Downtown Historic District is a roughly rectangular-shaped area encompassing approximately ten blocks and including sixty buildings. Six of the buildings are previously listed in the National Register, and an additional twenty-six buildings contribute to the historic character of the area. Only eight of the district's buildings were constructed after the period of significance, 1889 to 1953. All of the buildings in the district were constructed for commercial use or for use by financial institutions; even the IOOF and Masonic Lodges, built by fraternal orders, offered commercial space at their ground levels. The area remains a commercial and financial district and reflects the development of Moscow as a regional business and trade center." ( visit link)
