The Robinson Hill Residential Historic District is identifiable by the prevalence of seventy-four small and medium-sized single-family homes and is one of Allouez’s most architecturally intact historic residential areas with examples of the prevailing residential architectural styles of the period, including humble Tudor Revival, Colonial Revival, Bungalow, and Ranch styles that together constitute a well-defined and visually distinct geographic and historic entity.

The Robinson Hill neighborhood is generally defined by the natural and man-made borders of the Village of Allouez-City of Green Bay boundary line to the north, the busy thoroughfare of South Webster Avenue to the east, the Wisconsin Central Railroad to the south, and the Fox River to the west. Located at the northeast corner of the Village of Allouez, the Robinson Hill Residential Historic District has boundaries that include homes along Allouez Terrace, South Jackson Street, South Van Buren Street, Derby Lane, and Catherine Street.

The Robinson Hill neighborhood was primarily occupied by an emerging middle-class, including business managers, salesmen, clerks, skill laborers, small business owners, engineers, and medical professionals, all of whom worked in the nearby city of Green Bay. Due to the prevalence of young families, local lore has it that the railroad crews referred to Robinson Hill as “Diaper Alley” because of the cloth diapers hanging on clotheslines behind the homes on Allouez Terrace.

The houses in this district are private residences, please respect the privacy of the occupants.
