101 West Jackson Street - This was originally a Federal Style house of c. 1800 - 1825 on a raised basement. The Federal lines of the house are visible, but the cornice has been altered with Itallanate brackets, and a Greek Revival porch has been added.
103 West Jackson Street - Similar to its neighbor, this house lacks a raised basement.
105 West Jackson Street - This house of c. 1800 - 1825 was the first black bank in the nation. It was the home of W. W. Brown, the founder of the True Reformers and founder of the bank. The house has an interesting bracketed cornice and porch added to this unusually wide Federal home which is similar to 133 West Jackson Street.
127 - 129 West Jackson Street - This double wooden Itallanate house possesses a fine spindle porch and bracketed cornice.
