400 BLOCK WEST MARSHALL STREET
309 West Marshall Street - This large and handsome Itallanate house dates from the later part of the century and is unusually well preserved. It has a wooden porch and fence and elaborate cornice. The recessed brick panel enframing the front is unusual.
313 West Marshall Street - Originally built in 1817 and extensively altered in the 1840's, this house is one of the most interesting in the Ward. Begun as a federal farmhouse by William Young, it was purchased by Addoph iDlll in 1844. His daughter, Mrs. Thomas Barham, lived in the house. It has a Greek Revival entrance and an Itallanate cornice crowning the stuccoed facade.
315, 317, 319, 321 West Marshall Street Built in the 1880's this large row is notable for its size. Its cornice remains but the porch has been damaged by the removal of wooden columns and railings No fences survive giving this row an exposed appearance.
The 400 Block of West Marshall Street - This block is similar to its neighbors, preserving its nineteenth century atmosphere in spite of the heavy traffic on Marshall Street.
