Saline Local Historic Districts
Saline's local historic districts were established between 2002 and 2007. The districts represent significant early patterns of growth in Saline. Many of the residences within the districts are associated with significant persons in Saline's history, including state and local politicians, prominent merchants, and Saline's founder, Orange Risdon.
