It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1] Orange experienced a building boom in the years after the American Civil War, during which time a great deal of Victorian style housing stock was built, as were factories by its major employers. Institutional buildings such as the town hall and the Universalist Church are also within the district boundaries.[2]
