The Baxter Street Historic District is a historic district roughly at 19-34 Baxter Street in Quincy, Massachusetts. It encompasses an enclave of four worker housing units built in the 1880s for workers in the locally important granite cutting industry. They are four two-family wood frame structures, of a type called a "Quincy Cottage" which were once quite numerous in the city. The basic form is a 1-1/2 story rectangular block, with a projecting entrance and a pair of gabled dormers in the roof. This district includes 19-21, 25-27, 26-28, and 32-24 Baxter Street.[2]
The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
