View Street, among the first houses to be built c. 1916, has a gambrel roof and a two-level porch supported by slender Tuscan columns. The houses at 9 and 16 View Street have had synthetic siding applied, compromising their historic styling. Those at 10, 11, 14 and 15 View Street are relatively simple rectangular blocks with gable roofs and recessed two-level porches with a simple rectangular opening at the third level. 7 View Street differs from the others in being clad completely in shingles, where the others are generally clapboarded. The porch at 12 View Street is capped by a projecting gabled pediment, and its cornice features regularly spaced brackets.
