East Radford Historic District is a historic residential and commercial area exhibiting the 19th- and early 20th-century development of a regional transportation hub and industrial center. Residential, commercial, transportation-related, and institutional buildings primarily date from 1880 to 1930, during which time new, popular building designs gradually replaced traditional forms. This period also reflects the era of Radford’s expansion in the late 19th century when it was transformed from a depot village to an important regional center along the New River.
