History
1
Campbell Park Historic District is a residential neighborhood immediately south of downtown that reflects the community planning and development of Huron during the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. The four long blocks in the north part of the district were originally set aside by town planners to serve as the South Dakota State Capital grounds. Houses in the district were built for middle class working families between 1880 and 1948. Although there have been alterations, the district retains sufficient overall integrity to demonstrate its historic significance. Established in 1974, it includes 133 buildings, among them sixty-six single family dwellings, twenty garages, three apartment buildings, churches, a library, and a nursing home. All but three of the contributing resources were built before 1948, and fifty-six of the houses were built between 1900 and 1921. Predominant architectural styles include Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Bungalow, and mixed styles.
