The proper borders of the Reeveston area are South B Street to the north, South 23rd Street to the east, South 16th Street to the west and South E Street to the south. However, the northeast corner of South E and South 16th is not a part of the original Reeves property - the house located there predates the Reeves home.

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]
