"East Third Street is a major thoroughfare in Washington, running from Jefferson Street east
almost to the city limits. Before World War II, Third Street between Jefferson and Boone Street
(the original western boundary of the town of Bassora) was known as Seigel Ave. West of
Jefferson Street, it was known as Third Street and east of Boone Street, it was Second Street.
The western district boundary crosses East Third Street in the middle of the block between
Jefferson Street and Market Street. Three blocks of East Third are included in the district
boundary. However, no properties face East Third Street in the 300 block. Of the nine houses
on East Third Street within the district boundaries, six are contributing buildings." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
