Regarding The Robbins House. Excerpt from the original National Register nomination for the district:
RobbinsHouse (780 Ivy Avenue) - built in 1860 by Dr. Samuel Robbins in the French Renaissance Revival style. The 3-story brick building features restrained detailing of window and roof trim, relieved by the paired cornice brackets, hexagonal patterned slate roof, and arched dormers. The building is in excellent condition, and the alterations are limited to replacement window sash, and a frame addition on the east.
