"The majority of the contributing buildings, both commercial and residential, are from
the Victorian Period and reflect the influence of the Victorian Gothic and Italianate
styles.
"The largest collection of buildings in Somerville representing one architectural period are
from the Victorian era. Porches had become and continued to be a predominant element of
residential buildings. All of the smaller one-story Victorian houses, both brick and
weatherboard, have porches across the facade and in some cases around at least one side.
Commercial buildings on the court square constructed during this period also utilized
porches." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
