600 BLOCK NORTH 3rd. STREET
515 - 517 North Third Street - This is a pair of very fine Itallanate houses with fine cornices, segmental arched windows and cast iron railings In 1884, 515 was the home of John Mitchell, owner and editor of the Richmond Planet, the leader of the Mechanic's Bank and the order of the Knights of Pythias.
519 - 521 North Third Street - This unusual Queen Anne house has a central gabled bay and a wraparound porch all in good condition.
523 - 525 North Third Street - A double Itallanate house on a raised basement, it has two shallow projecting bays. The porches are later additions, but are harmonious with the rest of the house.
The Six Hundred Block of North Third Street - This block contains a number of notable buildings, but is now entirely commercial in appearance.
