Donkin Street Houses

These 8 terraced houses were built in the 1850's and haven't changed much since then. They were built stepwise down to slope next to the Donkin Reserve in a Victorian Style. The first photo indicates one of few houses that haven't been renovated yet. The second where as in the second photo it is clear how the building has been restored to its original condition, by making use of the same materials and style.

These are one of Port Elizabeth's most significant historical sites as they form part of the Donkin Reserve and its historical development.
