History and architectural features

Built roughly between 1853 and 1863, these historic structures are representative examples of the Italianate-style of architecture. They were primarily built of stucco and masonry, with porches and bracketed cornices. The houses at 400 S. 40th Street and 4000 and 4002 Pine Street are believed to have been designed by architect Samuel Sloan.
