Grant Neighborhood Association

The Grant Neighborhood has a strong sense of community and active neighbors who work together to address issues of importance to the neighborhood. Community of members include everyone who lives, works, or owns property in Grant. Come to monthly meetings and get to know your neighbors.

Located at the north end of downtown Salem, Grant Neighborhood borders the Capitol Mall and encompasses a beautiful, historic part of Salem. Nearly all the homes and buildings date between 1900 and 1940. Grant was the first Salem neighborhood to be designated a Heritage Neighborhood by the Salem Historic Landmarks Commission.

Evergreen Church Historical Survey

The City of Salem (City) contracted with contracted Historical Research Associates, Inc. (HRA) to conduct the Grant Neighborhood Reconnaissance-Level Survey (RLS) Update (the Project). This effort expands on previous survey efforts, including a 2006 RLS of the Oaks Addition of the Grant Neighborhood (as bounded by D St. NE, Winter St. NE, Market St. NE, and Capitol St. NE) and the 2015 Grant Neighborhood RLS (Straus and Edging 2015). The Project involves re-surveying a portion of the 2015 Grant Neighborhood RLS boundary and entering the survey data into the Oregon Historic Sites Database (OHSD). The City wishes to use this baseline historic resource data as a basis for preservation planning and policy decisions within the survey area, with an objective to decide if the Grant Neighborhood maintains sufficient historic resources with integrity to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) as either a historic district or for inclusion in a Multiple Property Document (MPD). Of the 108 resources included in the RLS, 70 (65 percent) are recommended eligible/contributing (EC); 36 (33 percent) are recommended not eligible/non-contributing (NC); and 2 (2 percent) are recommended not eligible/out of period (NP). This study included only a portion of the Grant Neighborhood; the majority of the neighborhood was previously surveyed in 2006 or is unsurveyed. HRA did not recommend the City pursue a MPD for resources within the Grant Neighborhood.
