Lake Charles Historic District

The NRHP district is roughly bounded by Iris, Hodges, Lawrence, Kirkman, S. Division and Louisiana.

[1] The district includes 281 contributing buildings, dating from c.1880 to 1939, on 158 acres (64 ha), comprising works by architects Favrot & Livaudais and Edward F. Neild.

It is all that is left to represent the lumber boom prosperity of Lake Charles in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries.

It is architecturally significant as an outstanding collection of historic buildings within the context of southwestern Louisiana.
