The Spring Hill Historic District is a historic district between Summer, Central, Atherton, and Spring Streets in Somerville, Massachusetts that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]

Most development took place in the neighborhood between the 1840s and early 1900s. Spring Hill has a fine selection of Greek Revival houses and Victorians including Italianates, Gothic Revivivals and Queen Annes. Large houses were built in the neighborhood as well as smaller workers' houses and attached houses. In the early 1900s triple-deckers filled in the remaining land.[2]
