The Vendome and the St. Ives
The Vendome and the St. Ives are a pair of historic residential apartment houses in Worcester, Massachusetts. The Vendome (17-19 Chandler) was built in 1898 by Judson W. Hall to a design by the noted local architectural firm of Barker & Nourse, on property where Hall previously had a house. The five-story building is primarily faced in Roman brick, with pressed-metal bay windows, sandstone lintels, and decorative sandstone panels. The St. Ives (21-23 Chandler) was built c. 1913, also for Hall. It is stylistically similar to its neighbor, but is slightly wider, possessing two central window bays where The Vendome has one.[2] The buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1] See also
