The Elm Street Historic District in Worcester, Massachusetts, encompasses a collection of well-preserved three-decker houses at 132-148 Elm Street. Normally a building style intended for occupation by the working classes of the city, these stylish buildings were built 1904–06 facing Elm Park on the fashionable west side, and attracted a higher class of occupant. Stylistically the nine buildings generally exhibit Queen Anne and Shingle style elements.

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
