HDC has been commissioned to prepare a National Register Historic District Nomination of the Village of Glouster, Ohio, to support development and renovation of historic buildings downtown. The nomination is being supported by a Pipeline grant from the Ohio Department of Development. Most of the buildings lie north of the railroad tracks on each side of High Street, with the buildings on the west side backing up to Sunday Creek. The main industry in 19th century Glouster was coal mining the Sundar Creek seam. Supporting industries included brickmaking (the Wassall brick Company operated from 1895 to 1932) and the railroad line (Michigan & Kanawha) had a freight and passenger station in town.
