Peebles' Corner Historic District is a registered historic district surrounding the intersection of East McMillan Street and Gilbert Avenue in the neighborhood of Walnut Hills in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on November 14, 1985.

Beginning in 1883, the northeast corner was the site of the first branch of the Joseph R. Peebles' Sons Co. grocery store.

The Orpheum and Paramount theatres once stood at Peebles' Corner. Established in 1909, the Orpheum was the first playhouse built outside of the city center. The Opheum provided vaudeville entertainment then showed silent films. It was closed in 1952 and then later demolished.
