300 BLOCK WEST MARSHALL STREET
201 West Marshall Street - A most unusual early twentieth century building, it combines modernist Gothic detail with two giant milk bottles. It is a surprisingly successful com¬ bination of elements.
The Three Hundred Block of West Marshall Street contains a large number of pre-Civll War houses, some of which have been altered in unusual ways.
300 - 302 - 304 West Marshall Street - Built in 1848, this three unit row is comparatively well-preserved. Some have their original porches, and the corner unit has a hipped roof. These were built for F . T . Isbell and were owned by the Todd family in 1876.
306 West Marshall Street - This is a very fine and well-preserved Greek Revival house in almost unaltered condition. The rather shallow roof is typical of houses of this period on Marshall Street. It was built in 1848.
