"The North Wall Street Historic District consists of the historic, intact commercial buildings in the block bounded by North Wall Street, East Church Street and the modern East Church Street overpass, North Gilmer Street, and East Cherokee Avenue in Downtown Cartersville. The block faces the railroad tracks and the public square, now used largely for automobile parking, to the west. Most of the buildings face North Wall Street with the exception of two buildings facing each Church and Gilmer Streets and Cherokee Avenue.

"The buildings include several one-story attached commercial buildings, a two-story attached commercial building, a freestanding warehouse, and the previously National Register-listed Grand Theater. The commercial buildings date from c.1905 to the 1930s and are all constructed of brick with the exception of the wood-framed Ross Diner which was remodeled extensively in 1947 and still retains its original furnishings and lunch counter." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
