McDonald Farm, Historic farm district in Greene County, Ohio, United States
The McDonald Farm complex encompasses 68 acres of land featuring Federal and Greek Revival architectural elements near the city of Xenia.
The limestone quarry at McDonald Farm provided construction materials throughout the 19th century, including stone blocks used in the Washington Monument's interior stairway.
The farm buildings demonstrate the evolution of agricultural practices and construction methods in Greene County through their combination of Federal and Greek Revival designs.
The property contains nine historical buildings and two significant sites, displaying the development of farming and quarrying operations in the region.
The farm's quarry, which operated until 1896, reveals limestone layers reaching depths of 8 feet, shaped by glacial processes over thousands of years.
