Jefferson Avenue Historic District, Victorian residential district in Ogden, United States.

The district extends along Jefferson Avenue between 25th and 27th Streets, containing around 40 buildings from different eras. Most are homes built from the late 1800s through early 1900s, along with two churches constructed in the 1920s.

The district was formed in 1998 around the blocks of Jefferson Avenue between 25th and 27th Streets, where wealthy Ogden residents had built Victorian-style houses. As their children grew up, many moved east to the newer Eccles Avenue Historic District, which favored Prairie style. Ogden's growth from 1910 to 1950 pulled the city's industrial center toward the avenue, and the area declined as a prime residential quarter; homes on the 2600 block were demolished, and from the 1960s to the 1990s most others were converted to lower-income multi-family residences before being returned to single-family use.

The district's name comes from Jefferson Avenue, the street laid out between 25th and 27th Streets where wealthy owners built Victorian homes. Among the residents listed in the sources are J.C. Armstrong, David Eccles, Hiram H. Spencer, William Eccles, Isadore Marks, Adam Patterson Sr., William H. Wattis, Louis Moench, Thomas Jordan Stevens, William V. Helfrich and Edmund T. Hulaniski. Many of their children later moved east to the Prairie-style Eccles Avenue Historic District.

The district is best explored on foot, as all buildings line the street and are easily visible from the sidewalk. A simple walk along Jefferson Avenue between the two cross streets allows you to see the range of architectural styles throughout the area.

William Hope Harvey, a notable resident of the district, organized a major celebration in 1890 that coincided with New Orleans Mardi Gras. The event was designed to bring national attention to Ogden's role as a railroad hub.
