Built in the 1830s
Andrew Jackson served until 1837 and Martin Van Buren followed. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 led to the forced removal of the Cherokee, Choctaw and other southeastern nations. The Panic of 1837 ended a long boom in land and canal building, and Greek Revival was by then the common style for anything meant to look public.
598 places on the National Register have a construction year in the 1830s on record. They stand in 43 states and territories. Of those, 39 are National Historic Landmarks.
Construction years come from Wikidata, matched on National Register reference number. Only plain four-digit years are counted, so a place recorded as circa or as a range is left out. Data refreshed November 02, 2026.
