Ritte’s Corner Historic District preserves a recognizable commercial and residential crossroads in Covington’s Latonia neighborhood.

The surrounding buildings reveal the area’s development as a community with its own center within the wider city.
Explore from public sidewalks and appreciate the streetscape without assuming that historic buildings operate as museums. The photograph shows one part of the district. Businesses and residences set their own access, and private interiors require permission. Keep entrances clear, use designated crossings and consider how the varied buildings relate to the neighborhood’s continuing everyday life.
