The John Riordan Three-Decker is an historic three-decker house in Worcester, Massachusetts. Built in 1888, it is a rare survivor of the earliest phase of three-decker construction in the area northwest of Worcester's downtown. It features a single-story entry porch and an atypical square projecting bay-rather than the more typical angled bay-flanking the entrance. Its early occupants were lower-income white collar workers, and skilled blue collar workers, predominantly Irish in origin. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. [1]
