MLA citation formatting for a historical document?

Usually Purdue's OWL guide serves for all my citation needs, but I just cannot figure out how to cite this National Register of Historic Places application.

Help would be appreciated!

    Click on the "All 58 Options" tab. One of those should help.

    Well, this isn't MLA specifically, but it's from the National Park Service site:
    What is the preferred method of citation for a National Register of Historic Places nomination file?
    National Register of Historic Places, property name, town, county, state, reference number.
    Example:
    National Register of Historic Places, Lamesa Farm Workers Community Historic District, Los Ybanez, Dawson County, Texas, National Register #93000771.

    So in your case, it would seem to be:

    National Register of Historic Places, Pioneer Square - Skid Road District, Seattle, King County, Washington, National Register #706460004.
