The Rose Hill Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located in Sioux City, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1] At the time of its nomination it contained 217 resources, which included 132 contributing buildings 84 non-contributing buildings, and one non-contributing site.[2] The district is located within the larger Rose Hill Addition, which was laid out by a group of Sioux City entrepreneurs in 1884. It includes many mansions built for the wealthy from about 1890 to 1910, most of which were later divided into apartments.[3] The Elzy G. Burkam House (1894) and adjacent garage are contributing properties. It also included a 125-year-old house at 1529 Grandview Boulevard which was demolished in 2015 after a long controversy about historic preservation.[4][5]
