The Warm Springs Avenue Historic District in Boise, Idaho, is a residential area with 96 contributing houses representing a variety of architectural styles constructed between 1870 and 1940. The district includes Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Bungalow, and other styles representing the work of architects Tourtellotte & Hummel, Wayland & Fennell, Kirtland Cutter, and others. The Children's Home Society of Idaho occupies the largest structure in the district, and its buildings are the only structures that are not houses.[2]

In 1892 Christopher W. Moore built the first large house on Warm Springs Avenue. Moore owned the Boise Artesian Hot and Cold Water Company, and his house was the first residence in the United States to be heated by geothermal means. Other prominent Boise residents built homes on the avenue, and many depended on Moore's water company for heat.[3]

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980,[2] and it was designated a local historic district by the City of Boise in 1996.[4]
