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. When the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990, 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. Many of these details have been removed or obscured by later exterior siding replacement and porch reconstruction (see photo).
