The Arch and Ridge Streets Historic District is a historic district located in Marquette, Michigan, United States, running along Arch and Ridge Streets from Front Street to Lake Superior.
[2] The district includes spectacular residences built for some of the leading citizens of Marquette, as well as more modest houses for white- and blue-collar workers.
[2] Two public structures, the Peter White Library and First United Methodist Church, are also located within the district.
[2] These include the Daniel Merritt House and St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral.
[2] Most of the construction in the district took place over the next 35 years as other leading citizens of Marquette followed White's lead, including pioneer businessman and industrialist Hiram A. Burt, Charles H. Call,[2] Daniel Merritt, Andrew Ripka,[5] David Murray, Josiah Reynolds, Frank Bennett Spear, and James Jopling.
