Historic District

Because it was the first settled road in North Olmsted, Butternut
Ridge Road has many historical buildings on it, carefully preserved as
homes by its residents. It is also a tangible illustration of the history
of the community, as the homes range in age from the farmhouses of
the early 1800's through the Civil War, Victorian, early 1920's and later
times to the new house developments of the new millennium.

Although the homes are of different ages, they make a compatible and
attractive whole. In recognition of this asset to the community, the
need to preserve it for the future, North Olmsted City Council has
designated Butternut Ridge Road as an historical district.

Signs have been erected marking the boundaries of the district. As you
go down the street, take time to notice the attractive homes, old and
new, and the graceful old trees.

It is a credit to North Olmsted that it appreciates and takes care of its
past, as it plans its future.
