The Howard Street Apartment District is a residential historic area in downtown Omaha containing multiple buildings spread between Harney, South 22nd, Landon Court and South 24th Streets. The neighborhood features rowhouses and apartment courts that developed over several decades of urban growth.

The neighborhood was built between 1885 and 1930 as Omaha expanded and needed more homes for its growing population. The buildings reflect how construction styles and housing designs changed over this 45-year period.

The district contains rowhouses and apartment courts that show how urban residents lived from the late 1800s into the 1900s. These homes reflect the housing styles that families needed in a growing city.
