108 - 110 West Clay Street - Part of an exceptional row of houses embellished with cast iron, the geometrical pattern of the cast iron is typical of patterns preferred in the 1880's. The cast iron fence is of note.
112 West Clay Street - A very fine Itallanate house with an exceptional cast iron porch, it is on a raised basement and has cast iron trim over the windows. The iron pattern is made up of a running vine with a different railing. Some of the cresting is preserved.
114 West Clay Street - Similar to its neighbor to the east, this house has galvanized metal window trim. This is an exceptionally well- preserved pair of houses. They date from c. 1880.
122 West Clay Street - This Itallanate house has a well-preserved decoration on the upper floor, both cornice and window trim. The porch has been stripped of its decoration, and the first floor has been substantially altered. The first floor has lost its period character¬ istics .
