Hamblen Development Historic District, Historic residential district in West End, Portland, United States.

The Hamblen Development Historic District includes four brick rowhouses and two duplexes along Danforth Street between Brackett and Clark Streets.

Brothers Eli, Joseph, and Nathaniel Hamblen initiated this residential development in 1835, marking an early real estate venture in Maine's history.

The Greek Revival architectural elements of these buildings represent the residential construction methods and social patterns of 1830s Portland.

The district contains seven residential structures at 188-208 Danforth Street, with each building maintaining its original three-story brick construction.

The buildings feature period-specific details such as modillioned cornices and wrought iron grills that remain unchanged since their construction.

Location: Portland

Address: 188-208 Danforth Street
