Hunt. The architect is unknown.","why_significant":"It represents the first three-decker building boom in the Main South area in the 1880s and early 1890s, which coincided with industrial expansion and an influx of immigrant workers and their families. It is also a remarkably well-preserved, ornate example of early Queen Anne design. The nomination argues it meets criteria A and C at the local level.","narrative":"Built around 1890 at 9 Wyman Street in Worcester's Main South neighborhood, this three-decker is a well-preserved example of Queen Anne design applied to working-class rental housing. It has a side-hall plan, an asymmetrical facade, a recessed three-tier porch with turned posts and curved brackets, and a three-story bay window covered in cut shingle against wood clapboard. Stained glass and geometric-pattern windows light the stairwells and front parlor. The first owner, Daniel E. Hunt, was a machinist who lived next door. Early tenants included a painter, a superintendent and a druggist, and later residents included machinists, clerks and a stenographer. Such buildings were owned and rented by skilled factory workers and white-collar employees, and streetcar service on Main Street made the area attractive to the latter. The house is listed as a representative product of the neighborhood's first three-decker boom, which accompanied industrial growth and immigrant settlement, and for its intact architectural detail.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Queen Anne style Three-Decker","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Described as being in excellent condition, with no major alterations and a residential use.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:13:04.779167-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/51/7933/63793351/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_MA/89002451.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/89002451/3fdcde06d3-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/89002451/3fdcde06d3-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY 3.0","author":"TM","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:9WymanWorcesterFront.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">TM</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:9WymanWorcesterFront.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/63793351","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Hunt_Three-Decker","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5217553"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/massachusetts/worcester-county/hunt-daniel-three-decker-89002451/"}
