Historic District
Awarded a National Historic designation in 2007, the Court Street Historic Residential District begins on 10th Street and continues to Fulton's historic downtown. The tree-lined streets compliment 83 homes of varying architectural styles, many of which were designed by a prominent Missouri architect and Fulton resident, M.F. Bell, and remind us of a time when life was much less hectic.


Small rear addition; screened-in porch.
imbricated shingles on attic story and on corners of porch; stick-type brackets supporting wide over-hanging eaves; screened-in front porch; wrought iron railing on porch steps.
