History
editSeveral houses in the district were constructed by DuPont for employees of a nearby plant of theirs in Barksdale, Wisconsin.[1] Other structures in the district include a house originally built by the United States Forest Service to be used by the resident forest ranger for Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest.
The district was added to the State Register of Historic Places in 2013 and to the National Register of Historic Places the following year.[2]
