The city of Alliance was founded in 1888 with the arrival of a railroad. Its commercial district, which includes some '"high style"' buildings including an Art Deco theatre and a neo-classical style post office, are included in the district along with other late 1800s and early 1900s buildings. Its oldest buildings date from 1893. Its NRHP nomination asserted that the district was mostly intact and "is able to evoke a sense of historic time and place."
