                                            were built between about
                                            1900 and 1920. The city had
                                            originally been located south
                                            of this location, but was
                                            relocated in 1899 due to the
                                            arrival of the railroad joining
                                            Little Rock, Arkansas and
                                            McAlester, Oklahoma. Most
                                            of the buildings are in typical
                                            early 20th century vernacular
