The district is bounded, approximately, on the north and northwest by M Street and Jefferson Avenue, on the east by North 2QmStreet, and on the south by the adjacent St. John's Church Historic District. The district has more than 500 buildings constructed from the midnineteenth to the early-twentieth wntury. The National Register Nomination report states, The scale and materials used throughout Church Hill North are consistent, while the styles vary enough that no one style of architechre dominates. Federal, Greek Revival, Italianate, Second Empire. Stick, Queen Anne. Classical Revival, Colonial Revival and Art Deco styles exist side by side in a compatible manner. The similarity of setbacks and landscaping gives a natural and harmonious rhythm to the neighbahood." The district exqansion continues this theme of similar building scale and materials, with a blending of architectural styles, and harmonious streetscapes. The expansion is mughly bounded on the west by North 2S" Street, on the north by T Street, on the east by @ Street, and on the south by the adiacent Church Hill North HistoricDistrid Theboundary increasecontains 288 buildings, twenty-three of which are noncontributing, and
