The Elvira Drew Three-Decker is an historic three-decker at 42 Abbott Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. Built c. 1904, it represents part of a trend of building the form, traditionally associated with working-class housing, into the fashionable west side of the city. When the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990,[1] exterior Colonial Revival details were highlighted, including brackets in the eaves and porch columns that were Tuscan columns.[2] Many of these details have subsequently been lost or covered over (see photo).
