Chestnut Street District, Historic district in Salem, United States.

Forty-five acres of Federal and Georgian architecture line the streets between Bridge Street and River Street, featuring mansions and homes from the 1800s.

The district earned its National Register of Historic Places designation in 1973, preserving structures that showcase the wealth from Salem's maritime trade era.

Hamilton Hall at number 9 stands as a National Historic Landmark, serving as a social gathering place and event venue since its construction in 1805.
