About Niles District
What are the main landmarks in Niles District?
Niles gets by on two landmarks. The Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum carries the district's headline address, and a silent-film museum is an unusual entry for a register this short. The California Nursery Co.
Guest House completes it. Fremont holds everything else that a visitor to Niles might want.
What is the history of Niles District?
Ask when Niles began, and the file stays quiet. What survives on the record instead are two addresses: the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum, whose name ties the district to the silent era, and the California Nursery Co. Guest House.
Fremont holds the district. Beyond those two names the file for Niles is bare, which leaves the museum as the district's only public account of its own past.
Where is Niles District?
Niles District occupies part of Fremont in California, with no river, ridge or shoreline recorded under its own name.
