According to its National Register nomination, "The District is a cultural resource, not only for its attractive tree-lined streets which lead to the public square, but for its enduring ties with the past. Despite alterations and the intrusion of modern structures which do not meet the architectural standards of the preceding generations, the Trenton District retains its well-established residential character and represents the largest collection of historic architecture within Gibson County."[2]
