From 1988 to 1994, a series of reports was commissioned to investigate various aspects of the Distillery District’s unique history. Although conditions on the site have changed as it has been transformed into a vibrant arts and cultural district, the basic research contained in these reports will be of interest to contemporary researchers and visitors to the site.
