The South Cherry Street Historic District is a historic district mainly located along the 100 block of South Cherry Street in Greenville, Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. The primarily residential district, which also includes properties on several neighboring streets, contains twenty-three buildings, eighteen of which are contributing buildings to the district's historical significance. The first house in the district was built in 1842 by Jonathan Short. Short was followed by several others in the 1840s and 1850s as Cherry Street became the favored neighborhood of Greenville's prosperous merchants. The early homes in the district were all designed in a vernacular Greek Revival style. Read more on Wikipedia
