Sanborn 1886 Map:


1879 Bird's Eye View:
Again, very little is known about the houses on this street.

102 Wall Street
Status: Demolished, after 1920
Built for: ?, 1820-1840?
This brick, three bay Greek Revival house had Ionic columns and typical brownstone trim. It was demolished some time after 1920, when it was pictured in a Yale graduation.


104 Wall Street
Status: Demolished, after 1920
Built for: ?, 1800-1820?
This wood, Federal Style house had the interesting feature of a side entrance rather than a front entrance, as shown by the one surviving photograph when it was serving as a rooming house for students.


106 Wall Street
Status: Demolished, 1892
Built for: ?, 1800-1820?
No image survives of the front of this house, but it was clearly a three bay Federal style house. It and its neighbor were demolished in the 1890s for the Berkeley Oval construction.


110 Wall Street
Status: Demolished, 1892
Built for: ?, 1800-1820?
Another unphotographed Federal gable front house.
