The district includes four houses as well as the sites of two demolished homes. The historic district was once a prestigious area of the city known as "Quality Hill", and it contained well-built homes designed in popular architectural styles. However, East St. Louis entered a severe decline due to the loss of its industry, racial discrimination, and a corrupt and mismanaged city government. The historic district suffered the same fate as the city; the district is marked by vacant lots and abandoned buildings, and all but one of the houses had been vacated or demolished by the 1970s.[2] As of 1979, four houses were still standing in the district; all four are contributing buildings. The Joyce House, located at 1005 Pennsylvania Avenue, is a Renaissance Revival house built in 1901. The Katherine Dunham Museum now occupies the house; it is the only house in the district which is still occupied. The John A. Campbell House, located at 1023 Pennsylvania Avenue, is a 1907 Queen Anne house designed by Albert B. Frankel. The Malburn M. Stephens House, located at 1010 Pennsylvania Avenue, is a Georgian Revival house built in 1902; its namesake owner served as mayor of East St. Louis for 22 years. The Thomas L. Fekete House, located at 1018 Pennsylvania Avenue, is a vernacular house built in 1896. The sites of two demolished houses, the Reid-Nims House and Derleth-McLean House, are included in the district as non-contributing sites.[2] The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 27, 1979.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}2. ^1 {{cite web|last=Flemming|first=Jeffrey S.|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory - Nomination Form: Pennsylvania Avenue Historic District|url=http://gis.hpa.state.il.us/pdfs/200370.pdf|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=February 16, 2014|date=February 1979}} 7 : Houses on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois|Queen Anne architecture in Illinois|Renaissance Revival architecture in Illinois|Georgian Revival architecture in Illinois|Houses in St. Clair County, Illinois|National Register of Historic Places in St. Clair County, Illinois|Historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places in Illinois |
