It holds some of Monroe's finest houses, altered over time to show changing tastes and social status. Its residents included two Georgia governors, industrial leaders and university presidents.","narrative":"Monroe's McDaniel Street district is a residential neighborhood of about 32 acres southwest of the downtown commercial core, stretching west from South Broad Street. Buildings date from the 1830s to the 1930s and include large houses on landscaped lots, First Baptist Church and the Old Baptist Cemetery, where graves date to the 1820s. The Briscoe-Selman-Pollock House, built in the 1830s and given a monumental portico in 1901, anchors the western end on a small hill. The McDaniel-Tichenor House, an Italianate villa designed by William Winstead Thomas for Governor Henry D. McDaniel, was remodeled in 1930 in Neo-classical style by Francis Boddie Warfield. The district was home to two governors, McDaniel and Clifford Walker, to industrial figures such as George C. Selman, and to university leaders tied to Mercer and Tulane. Its architecture, informal landscaping and civic history show the neighborhood's standing as the home of Monroe's leading citizens.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"William Winstead Thomas and Francis Boddie Warfield (McDaniel-Tichenor House); Waters Briscoe (built the Briscoe-Selman-Pollock House); Clifford Walker (built the Walker House)","architectural_style":"Mixed styles: Federal, Italianate, Victorian, Neo-classical, Colonial Revival and bungalow","criteria":[],"status_note":"Occupied and generally well maintained, in good condition overall; current uses are residential, religious and a cemetery.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:41.29821-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_GA/83003614.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/93206666","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDaniel_Street_Historic_District","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q49523455"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/georgia/walton-county/mcdaniel-street-historic-district-83003614/"}
