From the Project Overview: "...The Wheeler Street Residential (Wheeler) survey area consists of 97 properties. The Wheeler Street area is located at the south end of Montclair Township, southwest of Bloomfield Avenue, which is the Township's main commercial thoroughfare; the survey area is roughly bounded by Woodland Avenue, Willowdale Avenue, Lincoln Street, and Maple Street and includes Wheeler Street and Monroe Place. ...The Wheeler Street Residential survey area includes both residential and commercial buildings, the majority of which are residential and date to the first 30 years of the 20th century with some exceptions. The area reflects the rapid growth at a relatively high density to accommodate immigrants and migrants from southern states that settled in Montclair for domestic, construction, factory and related jobs. ....The scope of work included a physical survey of the resources, photography, architectural descriptions, historic research, and determination of eligibility and significance. The historic research was conducted at the Montclair Public Library, the Montclair Local History Center, as well as through several online sources." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the New Jersey Historic Preservation Office administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior (grant number P18AF00117).
