19 Linden Street is a historic house located in Brookline, Massachusetts. It is a well-preserved local example of Greek Revival styling, and the best-preserved survivor of a residential subdivision developed in the 1840s.

Description and history

[edit]

This 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in 1843–44. Unlike many Greek Revival houses, it has a side-gable roof, but it has corner pilasters and a single-story porch with Greek columns, and the gable is fully pedimented.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 17, 1985.[1]
