Laurel Homes Historic District
Laurel Homes Historic District, Historic district in West End, Cincinnati, United States.
The Laurel Homes Historic District encompasses 34 acres with 29 buildings bounded by Liberty Street, John Street, Ezzard Charles Drive, and Linn Street.
Established in 1938, this district represented the second largest Public Works Administration housing project in the United States, containing 1303 residential units.
The district marked progress in American housing integration as apartments were leased to both white and black families during the segregation period.
The National Register of Historic Places designation in 1987 enables property owners to access tax benefits for preservation and restoration projects.
Frederick W. Garber, who designed structures like the Woolworth Building in Lexington, Kentucky, led the architectural planning of these residential buildings.
