State and Eagle Streets Historic District
The National Park Service has not published a boundary polygon for this district; the map shows the listed properties inside it and the district's reference point.
Why it's listed
This residential district in the village of Mount Morris, Livingston County, covers two blocks of State Street and part of Eagle Street. It includes 16 houses, a parsonage, two churches, a grave site and several outbuildings, with only two non-contributing primary buildings. Most are frame, with a few brick, and range from one and one-half to two and one-half stories. Styles include Carpenter Gothic, Italianate, Stick, Queen Anne, Georgian Revival, Neoclassical and American Foursquare, and the churches are Romanesque Revival and Gothic Revival. State Street is a broad, tree-lined thoroughfare with landscaped lawns. The house at 22 State Street, built about 1840 or possibly earlier, is believed to be the oldest surviving building; settlement on the street began around 1810. The district shows how the village's leading residential neighborhood developed from the 1830s into the early twentieth century, and several buildings were homes of prominent local citizens.

What listing means for this property
This is a historic district. Buildings within its boundary are either contributing (they add to the district's significance) or non-contributing. Owners of contributing income-producing buildings can claim the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit; homeowners should look at state credits. National Register districts impose no design review by themselves; a local historic district ordinance, if one exists, does (the difference explained).
