John Nolen Plan of Venice Historic District, Historic district in Venice, Florida, United States.

The John Nolen Plan of Venice Historic District is a National Register historic district on the west coast of Venice, Florida, laid out by planner John Nolen in 1926 for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. Its bounds are Laguna Drive on the north, Home Park Road on the east, the Corso on the south and The Esplanade on the west. Within them sit ten properties and districts already listed on the National Register, among them the Hotel Venice, the Valencia Hotel and Arcade, the Venice Depot, the Triangle Inn and the Venezia Park, Edgewood and Armada Road districts.

John Nolen planned the district in 1926 for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, a railroad union. It lies on Venice's west coast, bounded by Laguna Drive, Home Park Road, the Corso and The Esplanade. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 23, 2009.

The name honours John Nolen, the planner who drew the street grid in 1926 for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, a railroad union. The district's layout groups the Hotel Venice, the Valencia Hotel and Arcade, the Venice Depot and the Triangle Inn within the same plan, so the buildings read as one designed ensemble rather than separate landmarks.

The district lies on Venice's west side, with Laguna Drive to the north, Home Park Road to the east, the Corso to the south and The Esplanade to the west. The Corso and The Esplanade give the clearest entry points, and the numbered avenues of the Nolen grid make orientation straightforward. Several listed buildings inside the bounds, including the Venice Depot, are open to visitors.

The district's boundaries—Laguna Drive, Home Park Road, The Corso and The Esplanade—enclose ten properties and districts already on the National Register, among them the Venice Depot, Hotel Venice and the Valencia Hotel and Arcade. The whole Nolen plan was listed on September 23, 2009.
