The house at 72R Dane Street in Somerville, Massachusetts is one of Somerville's oldest surviving structures and is located near the site of the earliest settlement in Somerville. [2]
The house was built around 1790 and features American colonial and Federal style architecture. 72R Dane Street is located on a small right-of-way off of Dane Street. Dane Street "was laid out in 1845 to provide a north-south link between Somerville Avenue and Washington Street." [3] The buildings surrounding 72R Dane Street were largely constructed as working class tenement housing in the mid-nineteenth century. 72R Dane Street was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 and remains a private residence.
