The Lydie Blodgett Three-Decker is a historic triple decker at 167 Eastern Avenue in Worcester, Massachusetts. It was built about 1902 on Worcester's Belmont Hill, an area then becoming heavily populated with Scandinavian immigrants.[2] When the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990,[1] it was called out for its well-preserved Queen Anne styling, including its porch with Tuscan columns, and brackets in the roof corners near projecting bays.[2] Many of these details have been removed or obscured by later exterior siding replacement and porch reconstruction (see photo).
