The South Main Street Residential Historic District encompasses a residential area south of downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. The area, extending along South Main Street roughly between 19th and 23rd Streets, was developed between about 1880 and 1945, and includes a well-preserved set of residential architecture from that period. Notable buildings include the Luxor Apartments, the Holcomb Court Apartments, and the Ada Thompson Memorial Home.[2]

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1] In 2012 it was enlarged to include the west side of the 2000 block of Scott Street.[2]
