Looking at 326 -328 Hailman Street, with its Folk Victorian styling, narrow lot and tall but compact profile, it is clear that it is the block's oldest home. You'll recall a time when Pittsburgh was a rapidly growing city, with its lack of front porch, setback from the sidewalk. Then, space was at a premium, neighborliness was a way of life, and most people walked to their place of work or play.
At the same time, 326-328 Hailman Street appears to be its block's newest house. It is the only home that has been remodeled while respecting its original design. Built in the early 1880s, 326-328 Hailman Street was there to see the beginning of Shadyside's period of greatest growth, and has more recently experienced its renewal into one of the city's most prosperous neighborhoods.
