Overview
The area is a tourist attraction[2] and home to the Haymarket Park baseball stadium. Its historic significance has been recognized by being listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Lincoln Haymarket Historic District.[1]

The district held a Halloween event in 2018.[3]
Buildings in the district were designed by various firms including Fiske & Meginnis and Meginnis and Schaumberg. The historic J. C. Ridnour Building (1925) designed by Meginnis and Schaumberg is in the district.[4]
