33rd Annual October Tour of Historic Homes!!!!

It's that time of year again! Salisbury's October Tour! The Historic Salisbury Foundation hold it's 33rd annual tour of some of Salisbury's finest preserved and restored architecture this weekend, October 11th and 12th. The tour not only includes some of our most beautiful historic homes but includes trolley rides, a Civil War enactment, musicians and artists! This is one of, if not THE, most celebrated weekends in Salisbury, North Carolina!!

This tour brings thousands to the streets of Salisbury. Remember friends and neighbors, this means that many will be coming right through our own North Salisbury area as they travel to the Tour sites. Although we do not (yet) have a home on the tour, we have a collection of Rowan County's most diverse historic architecture and a heritage to be proud of! Let's provide a welcoming gateway to our visitors!

The Historic Salisbury Foundation is a private non-profit organization that has saved over 100 properties through their neighborhood revitalization program. The proceeds from the October Tour will benefit the furthering of this work.

For October Tour ticket information, visit http://www.historicsalisbury.org/ or call 704.636.0103. We'll see you there!

Welcome to NOMA!

The North Main Neighborhood, in the City of Salisbury North Carolina, is bounded by Lafayette Street at our most southern boundary, and 17th Street (the Town of Spencer town line) to the north; and between N. Jackson Street at our western boundary and the Southern Railway tracks to the east.

In the center of the NOMA, lies the North Main Historic District with homes that were constructed circa 1890 - 1938 along the trolley line that ran from Fulton Heights to the Spencer Shops.

Preserving & Nurturing North Main Street Area's Most Beautiful Homes

One of the great benefits of local historic district designation in Salisbury is that the City provides grants to residential property owners to assist with the costs of exterior maintenance and repair. These grants are loans that do not have to be repaid and they’re typically used for projects such as painting, roofing and repair of original wood features. The maximum grant award is $2,500 and they’re usually expected to cover 50% or less of the overall project cost. Grants are awarded in the spring and fall as funding allows and they are prioritized to encourage applicants with low in comes. For more information, check out the brochure on the city’s website at: http://www.salisburync.gov/historic.html
