SoHo Cast Iron Historic District is a historic district that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1978. It consists of 26 blocks and approximately 500 buildings.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Text/78001883.pdf National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: SoHo Cast Iron Historic District] |2.24 MB|author=Karen Graham Wade, Marjorie Pearson, james T.

The boundaries are approximately rectangular: West Broadway on the west, West Houston on the north, Crosby Street on the east, and Canal Street on the south. But there is a notch taken out of the lower right-hand corner: at the southeast corner, Crosby Street does not meet Canal Street, and the border runs from Canal Street north along Broadway and east along Howard Street to Crosby. A detailed map of the New York City's district of the same name, designated August 14, 1973 shows these boundaries.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://www.nyc.gov/html/lpc/downloads/pdf/maps/soho.pdf SoHo-Cast Iron Historic District, Manhattan, Designated: August 14, 1973] |215 KB|author= |date= |publisher=City of New York Landmarks Preservation Commission] The name SoHo is actually a syllabic abbreviation of "South of Houston."
