The district includes 11 contributing commercial buildings, spanning two city blocks. The northern block includes the Great Southern Hotel and Theatre and the Schlee-Kemmler Building, both already individually listed in the Columbus and National Registers. The southern block includes nine commercial buildings from the late 19th century, mostly 2-3 stories in height, featuring a variety of architectural details. The blocks are among the last remaining cohesive streetscapes left in downtown Columbus.
