The Fay Street Historic District a small residential historic district encompassing two related triple decker houses at 4 and 6 Fay Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. When the district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, the two triple deckers, built c. 1896, were noted for the preservation of their Queen Anne styling, including porches with turned balusters and brackets, with similar decorative bracketing in the roof eaves. 4 Fay Street was also noted for having decorative pendants hanging from the roof line near the side projection. Since then, the buildings have been resided and their porches rebuilt with simpler styling (see photo).
