The area is an architectural design control district, however it has not been made into a historic district, hence why the one hundred year old houses could be knocked down to make way for the Marriott (1203 and 205 West Main Street) in 1998-2000.
Although these are not the houses in question, they are of a similar time period and remain along West Main.
