Regarding Nash House. Excerpt from the National Register nomination:
Designed by Charles L. Thompson in 1907 as rental property for Walter Nash,the house at 601 Rock is Georgian Revival in influence. As compared to the Nash House at 409 E. 6th (PU-102), also designed by Thompson, the Rock Street house is a slightly more elaborate version of the same basic plan. It is one of the most formal and handsomely detailed medium-scaled houses designed by Thompson.
