Butternut Historic District Survey Report

Chambers, Murphy and Burge Restoration Architects

From introduction: "Acknowledging two previous Butternut Ridge surveys, one shortly after the country's bicentennial and the other in the mid 1980's, CMB was charged with reviewing the work completed up to that time, updating the information, and entering the revised Ohio Historic Inventory (OHI) forms into the digital data base, I-Form, administered by the Ohio Historic Preservation Office. The City provided a list of addresses along Butternut Ridge Road and 45 OHI forms completed for properties in North Olmsted and along Butternut Ridge Road as a result of the previous surveys. An outline of the existing local district is shown on the Historic District Boundary map. As part of this project, 39 of these 45 properties were re-evaluated and the information from the corresponding OHl was updated and entered into the OHPO database in digital and searchable format. Three properties were outside of the Butternut District Area and therefore not included in this study, two previously inventoried structures had been demolished, and 13 additional properties were inventoried to a combined total of 52 updated or newly created inventories within the locally designated Butternut Historic District. No other properties in this district have been addressed for the Ohio Historic Inventory to date." Funding for this project was provided in part through a fiscal year 2011 Historic Preservation Fund grant to the City of North Olmsted (project number OH-11-012) administered by the Ohio State Historic Preservation Office (grant number 39-11-31942) and the State, Tribal, and Local Plans and Grants Division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. North Olmsted, Ohio is a Certified Local Government.
