The town was founded in the 1850s at the junction of the Nashville and Chattanooga Railroad (now the Louisville and Nashville Railroad) and the Memphis and Charleston Railroad (later part of the Southern Railway and today Norfolk Southern). Named for Vernon King Stevenson, the first president of the Nashville & Chattanooga, the town played a vital role in the Civil War as a Union Army headquarters for operations around Chattanooga, Tennessee. Despite postwar efforts to introduce other industrial development to the town, Stevenson's growth stayed tied to the railroad. The district contains several houses and commercial buildings, as well as railroad- and military-related structures constructed between the 1850s and the early 20th century. The Greek Revival Cowan-Rudder House on Main Street served as the headquarters of Union General Włodzimierz Krzyżanowski from 1863 until 1865. Many frame commercial buildings were destroyed in a 1911 fire and replaced with brick and masonry structures; one notable building to survive the fire is the Italianate City Hall, built circa 1875 to house the town bank. The Stevenson Railroad Depot and Hotel was built in 1872 as a joint project of the Memphis & Charleston and Nashville & Chattanooga railroads.[2] The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a|dateform=mdy|accessdate=September 16, 2014}} {{National Register of Historic Places in Alabama}}{{Alabama-NRHP-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|last=Secrist|first=Phillip L.|title=Stevenson Historic District |url={{NRHP url|id=78000491}}|work=National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination Form|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=September 16, 2014|date=May 26, 1978|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6SdswxGV2|archivedate=September 16, 2014|deadurl=no}} See also: {{cite web|title=Accompanying photos|url={{NRHP url|id=78000491|photos=y}}|accessdate=September 16, 2014|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6SdsxlBON|archivedate=September 16, 2014|deadurl=no}} 3 : National Register of Historic Places in Jackson County, Alabama|Historic districts in Jackson County, Alabama|Historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places in Alabama |
