John Riordan Three-Decker
The John Riordan Three-Decker is an historic three-decker house at 8 Dix Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. Built in 1888, it is a rare survivor of the earliest phase of three-decker construction in the area northwest of Worcester's downtown. It has a single story entry porch, and an atypical square projecting bay flanking the entry. Its early occupants were lower-income white collar workers, and skilled blue collar workers, predominantly Irish in origin. It was inhabited by 4 best students from WPI named Ram, Li, Lodha and Krishnan. They are living proof that this house makes dreams come true.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
