Historic brick and brownstone Chester Terrace takes up an entire block on E. First Street in downtown Duluth. Built in 1890, the Richardsonian Romanesque row house apartments were designed by architects Oliver Trephagen and Francis Fitzpatrick. Special features include towers, turrets, finials, and gables. It received its name from neighboring Chester Creek which flows into Lake Superior. The building is still being rented out as apartments and was put on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
