Yesterdays: A Walk through the Washington-Willow Historic District

Leflar, Helen Finger and Carolyn Lewis Newbern. Yesterdays: A Walk through the Washington-Willow Historic District (Washington County Historical Society, Fayetteville: 1983). This booklet gives architectural and historical information about houses and buildings for the original portion of the Washington-Willow Historic District, including a map of the district when it was created. The district has since been expanded geographically as far as Olive Avenue on the east and Prospect Street on the north. The booklet also includes pen and ink drawings of several of the houses. Its call number at the University of Arkansas library is F419.F3 Y4.

Historic Homes of Fayetteville

  • Stirman House
    In 1951, Walter J. Lemke photographed a dozen homes in Fayetteville that he considered historic and made it a baker's dozen by adding a picture and description of the Masonic Hall. Although most of the buildings are still standing, several have since been torn down.

University Buildings

  • Senior Walk
    The first history of the University of Arkansas included more than a dozen photos of the campus as it appeared just after the turn of the century. Most of the buildings are no longer standing, and nearly all of those that do remain are used in new capacities.
