The Prince-Alexander-Champeney-Kenilworth Historic District located in
Rochester's Northeast Quadrant in the Marketview Heights Neighborhood along
Alexander Street was built between 1888 and 1920.
The properties are exclusively medium to large-scale, two-and-one-half-story
residential structures of frame construction with clapboard and wood shingle
siding. The properties exhibit qualities associated with vernacular
interpretations of the Queen Anne and Colonial Revival styles with detailing
associated with vernacular Shingle Style and Prairie Style architecture.
The district reflects Rochester's strongest period of residential growth,
which occurred between 1890 and 1920. The enclave represents the residential
development ventures of the Estate of Hiram Sibley which were executed by the
famous real estate mogul's son and son-in-law, Hiram W. Sibley and Hobart F.
Atkinson.
