It includes buildings that primarily date from 1880 to 1912. They are typical of turn-of-the-20th century commercial buildings, using materials such as pressed tin, limestone, and brick. Notable buildings include the Sumter County Courthouse, Sumter Town Hall-Opera House, Lee and Moise Building, Bultman Brothers' Boots and Shoes, Bank of Sumter, and Burns Hardware.[2][3]
