The Central High School Neighborhood Historic DistrictinLittle Rock, Arkansas encompasses the vicinity surrounding Little Rock Central High School. The area was designated to provide historic context to the National Historic Landmark school. Notably, it features the restored Magnolia Gas Station, which played a crucial role as a staging area for the media during the school integration crisis of 1957. Until the early 21st century, this building operated as the National Park Service visitor center for the historic district.[2] Additionally, the neighborhood comprises various residences showcasing architectural styles such as bungalows, Tudor Revival, and Colonial Revival.
