History and architectural features
This complex consists of nine buildings that were erected in 1910. Designed in the Renaissance Revival style, they are large, six-unit buildings that are arranged in groups of three on either side of Regent Street. Three-story buildings, they are brick structures that sit on Wissahickon schist foundations and feature projecting arched center entrances and multiple porch levels.[2]
