It is also significant in community planning and development as the Tindall Heights neighborhood, a middle-class area with working-class and Black pockets, annexed into Macon in 1910.","narrative":"Tindall Heights is a roughly 400-acre neighborhood southwest of downtown Macon, Georgia, built up between about 1870 and 1942. Industrial uses came first in the 1850s, including Civil War-era foundries and a Confederate armory, but none of those buildings remain. Residential growth followed, and the area was annexed into the city in 1910. Nearly all of the houses are wood-framed and show a wide range of types, including shotguns often built in rows, saddlebags, bungalows, Queen Anne cottages and American four-squares. Small brick and wood commercial buildings sit on corner lots, many along Broadway, and a few still serve neighborhood businesses. Romanesque Revival and Colonial Revival churches and a Colonial Revival school also survive. The neighborhood grew mainly as a white middle-class area, with pockets of working-class and Black housing. It was listed for its unusually large and intact collection of urban Georgia house types and for its role in Macon's residential development.","period_of_significance":"c.1870-1942","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Queen Anne, Craftsman, Italianate, Classical Revival, Romanesque, Colonial Revival, Folk Victorian","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Many commercial buildings are still used for neighborhood businesses; churches, school and houses remain in their historic functions.
