It is located approximately one mile north of the downtown commercial core, and represents one of the few intact "close-in" historic residential areas in Wichita. The district generally extends along both Park Place and Fairview avenues from 13th through 17th streets, and Wellington Place between 17th and 18th, with exceptions to the boundaries along the west side for non-contributing buildings. The district is on level land, and deciduous shade trees line the streets. There are 165 primary buildings within the boundaries of the historic district: 134 are contributing, and 31 are non-contributing. Some of the non-contributing buildings were constructed during the district's period of significance, but have non-original siding. Removal of the siding may alter these building's contributing status. There are an additional 58 outbuildings: 37 are contributing and 21 are non-contributing. These outbuildings are generally small, located on the alleys, and not visible from the public streets. Finally, there is one contributing structure - - the brick-paved 14th Street ~ and two contributing objects. Although there are a variety of housing styles, types, and sizes located within the district, including representatives
