The City of Orange is unique in that it is centered around The Plaza Historic District in which some of the homes were built prior to 1920 and have been preserved. Architectural styles include Bungalow, Craftsman Bungalow, Arts and Crafts Movement, Hip Roof Cottage, Mediterranean Revival, Prairie Style, Spanish Colonial Revival and Victorian. This quaint one-mile square is a vibrant commercial district as well with many historic buildings and the oldest operating bank and soda fountain. The City’s Historic District was listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
