Summary
The Lincoln Haymarket Historic District is a collection of historic warehouses and commercial buildings that housed and supported the city's thriving wholesale businesses from the 1880s until the 1940s, when changes in transportation technology led to the relocation of the businesses away from the Haymarket area. Centered on Lincoln's Burlington Station, the four to six story buildings of the district reflect Lincoln's role as a regional commercial center and are now a center of successful adaptive reuse of industrial buildings.
