About this property

It extends along the city's Main Street, southward from the railroad tracks for about three blocks, and includes 17 historically significant buildings, as well as Tyronza Park, a small city park. Most of the district's buildings were built between 1910 and 1930, the major period of Tyronza's growth, and are mostly typical commercial vernacular brick and masonry structures one and two stories in height. The oldest building in the district is the c. 1916 Bank of Tyronza building at 117 South Main.
