District listed 26 March 2014 · screen test November 2026

The Commercial Historic District's fame is documentary: one block, fourteen contributing buildings, a nation told to notice it. Listed 26 March 2014 under Criteria A and C, the district's buildings — the bank houses of c. 1911, the 1915 town hall, the 1960 bank — are famous the way Register places are famous, by nomination and listing rather than by event, and the leg prints them at exactly that size, cross-referring the Architecture section for the inventory. The screen test, run both ways as the checklist requires, returns a negative in both directions at the depth reached: no feature film or television production is documented in any carrier reached as shot in North Liberty, and no famous film credited to the town was found that was actually shot elsewhere — the town has neither a screen credit nor a screen confusion to correct. The crime-corner item likewise returns nothing: no dated, addressed corner of fame-through-crime exists in the record reached. The closing confusions article is short because the confusion is single and constant: the park is filed under the town, the town is filed under the park, and this section's first paragraph is the correction. North Liberty, Indiana — the town, one square mile — should also not be confused with North Liberty, Iowa, a larger and faster-growing city of the same name; no carrier reached confuses them in print, and the note stands preventively, at one line.
