The Skaneateles Historic District is a 17 acres (6.9 ha) historic district in the village of Skaneateles, New York that dates back to 1796, includes one building from 1928, but is otherwise composed of 19th-century residences and commercial buildings. It includes 59 contributing buildings and one contributing site – Thayer Park along Skaneateles Lake, – as well as five non-contributing structures. The district runs along both sides of East Genesee Street (New York Route 20) from Jordan Street to Onondaga Street (County Route 41), and includes the core of Skaneateles' historic downtown area, which was rebuilt in 1836 after being almost totally destroyed by fire in 1835. Also included are properties on Jordan Street up to the intersection of Fennell Street, and the stone mill property on Fennell Street.
