The district, which contains houses dating back to the 1830s, centers on the intersection of West Chicago Boulevard ( M-50) and Union Street. The district contains 82 houses, three churches, a former school, and a library as contributing properties. The structures primarily date from the late-nineteenth to the early-twentieth century and consist mostly of Greek Revival and Italianate architecture.
