History

The collection of three buildings was designed by Washington architect Julius Germuiller. They are an example of the coordination of residential and commercial architecture in the late 19th century.[2] The earliest of the three buildings is a row house at 302 H Street, NW. A commercial building at 300 H Street, NW features a mortar and pestle on the cornice and was completed in 1890. The building at 748 3rd Street is the last of four identical row houses that were completed in 1891.
