Description and history
Holyoke's Essex Street Historic District is located a short way west of the city's downtown, occupying Шаблон:Convert centered on a three-block stretch of Essex Street. It is bounded on the northwest by Pine Street and Chestnut Street to the southeast, extending to including properties on Walnut and Elm Streets adjacent to Essex. The district is architecturally diverse, including single-family homes on small lots, rowhouses, smaller multiunit (two and three-family) houses, and larger apartment blocks. The oldest building in the district is the Italianate Newton House on Elm Street, built c. 1877. The district is dominated by several multistory brick apartment blocks dating to the early 20th century. Also of interest are brick rowhouses lining part of Walnut Street, which date to the 1880s and have Queen Anne styling.[2]
Essex Street was laid out by 1870, but was not immediately developed. Its first phase of development was the construction of larger single-family houses such as the Newton House, built for executives of Holyoke's industrial concerns and local small-business owners in the 1870s. Density of housing soon increased, with the construction of the rowhouses on Walnut Street, and the first multistory apartment block in 1888. Development intensified in the early 20th century, when some of the larger homes were demolished to facilitate construction of more apartment blocks. By the mid-20th century, most of the single-family home had been converted to multifamily use.[2]
