Why it's listed

The Village Historic District is a residential and civic neighborhood in Wyoming, Hamilton County, Ohio, listed in 1986 as part of a multiple resource nomination for the community. Its boundary follows whole lot lines and runs along streets including Springfield Pike, Wentworth Avenue, Burns Avenue, Grove Avenue, Oak Avenue, Water Street, Van Roberts Street and East Mills Avenue. Maps of the area show churches, a library, schools, a civic center and parks among the houses. A federal reviewer described the district as a good illustration of the development of a late 19th and early 20th century commuter suburb and recommended its acceptance under criteria A, B and C. The nomination was accepted and entered in the National Register in August 1986. The text supplied here contains mainly boundary descriptions, maps and review sheets, so details of individual buildings, architects and styles are not available.

Significance in brief: The reviewer's comments describe the district as documenting the development and significance of a late 19th/early 20th century commuter suburb. The reviewer recommended acceptance under criteria A, B and C. The full description and significance statement are in the multiple resource area form, which is not included here.

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).

General information, not legal or tax advice. Rules change; confirm with your State Historic Preservation Office or a qualified adviser.
