Leens, an attorney whom a neighborhood tradition calls the “the Cardinal’s lawyer.” The Wilson-Spang House, 92 Alban, built for Dr. Charles Wilson in 1890, was later the home in the 1930s and 1940s of Clemens Spang, who was associated with the Cube Steak Machinery Company of which Joseph Spang was president before he became president of the Gillette Safety Razor Company.

Nos. 94 & 96 Alban Street are two-family houses of circa 1915. Expanded, rectangularized versions of that familiar early Twentieth-Century house type, the so-called “American Foursquare,” they borrow its hipped roof, robust Tuscan columns and exposed rafters from the Craftsman style.
