In the early 1900s, the Cotton Town commercial area was redeveloped as a residential community known as Bellevue. In March 1913, Bellevue became the second suburban neighborhood annexed to Columbia. Significant for its early twentieth-century architecture, the district was entered in the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
