608 North Third Street - This wood frame Queen Anne house had its porch altered in the nineteen twenties. It features an elaborate cornice.
612 North Third Street - The Tucker Cottage is the oldest surviving house in the Ward dating from between 1790 and 1800. It is one of the two surviving cottages in the City. The Gambrel roof, beaded sidings and dormers all attest to its age.
614 North Third Street - The Bethel A.M.E. Church, built around 1857, is separately listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The twin tower design is typical of American churches of the pre-Civil War period.
616 - 618 North Third Street - This Itallanate double house retains its fine cornice, galvanized window trim and half of its porch. These houses were unusually elaborate for their small size.
