Courthouse Hill Historic District
History of the District
In April 2005, the City of Cadillac adopted an ordinance to establish a Historic District titled Courthouse Hill Historic District. It is located in the heart of the City of Cadillac, and is mostly within the boundaries of the original 1871 Plat of the Village of Clam Lake (Cadillac).
Primarily residential, nearly 70% of the contributing structures in the Historic District were built prior to 1910 and are mostly wood frame, single-resident homes. Many are larger, Victorian-style residences built by the lumber barons and prominent businessmen that helped establish Cadillac in the 1870s. There are 85 structures in the District. |

Alterations
The exterior alteration, addition, or removal of existing elements where there is a change in the design, materials, or general appearance of any property within the Historic District will be subject to approval by the Historic District Commission (HDC). General routine maintenance will not require HDC approval.
The HDC currently utilizes design guidelines molded after the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation. Any specific questions may be directed to the Community Development Coordinator of the City of Cadillac, Jerry Adams at (231) 775-0181 x 101.
