Significance: Mackall Square conveys better than any other property the rural,isolated nature of residences in Georgetown Heights--- the northern portion of Georgetown that was outside the early boundaries of the port of Georgetown ---in the late eighteenth/early nineteenth century and the subsequent evolution of these properties into urban estates later in the nineteenth century and the evolution of Georgetown's infrastructure. Mackall Square was also associated with prominent Georgetown families and individuals.
