The majority of the buildings were built between 1870 and 1890 and display the features associated with Italianate style architecture.

[2] Italianate architecture in the United States is characterized by use of wide, even "emphatic", eaves supported by paired or single brackets (which seem to have designs unique to each building), low-pitched or flat roofs often not visible from the ground, and often cupolas or towers, as if the architecture were for a hilltop villa in Italian countryside, while in fact in the U.S. being sometimes upon a hilltop in the country but more often in town/city environments.

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
