Elias Crawford House


The Elias Crawford House is an historic octagon house located at 3 Norwood Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. It is one of two such houses in the city. The house was built sometime in the 1850s for an unknown owner; its first owner of record was Elias Crawford, a textile manufacturer, in 1870. It is a two-story frame house, with a wraparound porch, supported by chamfered posts, covering a portion of the first floor. A service wing was added to its rear in the 19th century, and there is a stable on the property that appears to date to the time of the house.
The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
