The Beaver Street Historic District is a residential historic district in the

triple-deckers located at 31-39 Beaver Street,[2] and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]

Description and history

The five buildings in this Beaver Street subdivision are located just southwest of the

Irish American families where the men were laborers or machinists, and the women who worked outside the home had office jobs.[2]

The five buildings are identical in their basic structure, a rectangular three story wood frame building with a side hall entry, and protruding bay sections on the front and left side. All have front porches that rise to three stories, but the decorative details and number of supporting columns differ among them. 37 Beaver Street is distinctive in the group for having a full width first floor porch and a gable end with full pediment, while numbers 31 and 35 have first floor side porches sheltering the entry. At the time of their listing in 1990 all were clad in wood clapboards and shingles.[2]
