Provo Downtown Historic District
Provo Downtown Historic District, Historic district in Provo, US.
The district spans four blocks of Center Street and part of University Avenue, containing 43 buildings with distinct architectural features and designs.
The district emerged in 1880 as a commercial center following the establishment of mining operations, which transformed Provo from an agricultural settlement.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Tabernacle stands as a Gothic Revival structure representing the religious foundations of the community.
The district includes numerous preserved buildings from 1880 to 1930, with twenty structures designated as architecturally or historically significant for research.
The area developed through Jesse Knight's mining wealth, which funded several commercial buildings and shaped the district's economic landscape.
