The district is significant because of its central position in the growing commerce of East Liverpool during the 19th and early 20th centuries as well as for its examples of Classic Revival architecture.[1] Restoration of the former J.C. Penney Building, also known as the BOSS Building, began in 2024 as part of a $1.2 million incentive received from the state government.[2]
