• <br /> y,4k <br /> store next to the Cinema Office Building, this block was contemporaneous with <br /> the previously mentioned-block. <br /> ➢ Residential Area—A grouping of homes along the west side of Gates Avenue, <br /> north of Main Street and south of 4th Street. These homes were built in the <br /> original "Plat of the Village of Elk River" shortly after it was established in 1868. <br /> The area not only represents an established visual feature of the community, but it <br /> also contains one of the last remanates of early residential development of the <br /> City of Elk River. <br /> ➢ Residential Area—From Jackson Avenue to Irving Avenue either side of 4th <br /> Street. Again this is a grouping of older residences that together have character, <br /> interest or value as part of the development and heritage of Elk River as well as <br /> representing an established visual feature of the community. <br /> ➢ Residential Area—On the far western edge of the study area, the neighborhood <br /> south of Main Street and east of Morton Avenue. Most of the houses on this <br /> block were built in the 1930's. They represent a variety of distinct architectural <br /> styles from that period and for the most part have retained their integrity. They <br /> are also the start of a larger residential district of significance, which continues to <br /> the west. This area represents an established visual feature of the community. <br /> ➢ River Bank Downtown—The river bank in the downtown area is being noted as <br /> highly significant because it is likely to yield information important in pre-history <br /> or history. There is a high potential to find archaeological deposits and the area <br /> was the site of numerous commercial activities in past, e.g. ferry crossing site, <br /> starch factory, and a sewer line that was a hand-dug WPA project. <br /> Although there is a fair amount of expertise on the HPC, it is strongly recommended <br /> that the historic significance of the parcels included in the study area be <br /> professionally reviewed as part of a "Context Study". Besides being a more in depth <br /> review than the one that the HPC did, a context study considers the significance of <br /> buildings and/or areas in a local or regional historic context. <br /> A closer review of all areas involved in specific redevelopment projects is recommended. <br /> This is especially true for those areas where buildings or sites with historic significance <br /> have been identified. <br /> • <br /> 411 <br />
