The Gilbert Row, as of 2005 often referred to as Emery Row, is a group of historic rowhouses in the southern part of the Walnut Hills neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Composed of six individual small houses and a more substantial structure designed as a commercial building, the row was built by the real estate firm of Thomas Emery's Sons according to a design by the Steinkamp Brothers architectural firm.[1] Built in 1889,[2] the complex became a model for many residential complexes constructed by Thomas Emery's Sons during the 1890s, including multiple apartment-style properties in Walnut Hills.[1]

Buildings in the Gilbert Row are generally constructed on foundations of stone; their walls are built of brick or iron, and they feature other elements of brick and stone.[3] Most buildings in the group do not feature iron: it is only present in the cast iron front of the building constructed as a store. Typical houses in the row feature porches with hip roofs, wooden posts with chamfered and reeded details, lattice-shaped valences, and ornamental brackets. Setting the complex apart from almost all other groups of rowhouses in the city is its general architectural style:[1] it is a clear example of the Queen Anne style of architecture,[2] which was rarely employed in the construction of rowhouses in Cincinnati.[1]

In May 1982, the Gilbert Row was listed on the National Register of Historic Places;[2] it qualified for inclusion because of its well preserved and historically significant architecture, which was seen as important throughout the local area.[3] Little more than a year later, a portion of southern Walnut Hills bounded by Morris, Gilbert, and Sinton Avenues was designated a historic district, the Gilbert-Sinton Historic District, and listed on the National Register,[2] and the buildings of the Gilbert Row were among the district's contributing properties.[4]

The structure underwent a complete renovation between May 2005 and November 2006, transforming the building into 12 townhomes and 6 condominiums.
