The Emerson House is a historic late First Period house in Haverhill, Massachusetts. The oldest part of this 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built c. 1730, and contains construction features characteristic of the transition between First and Second Period methods. The first part built was the central chimney with the right front rooms, which were followed later by the left side rooms, and then a rear leanto section. The left side was probably built by Nehemiah Emerson, who bought the house in 1787. The house was originally located at the corner of Winter and Pecker Streets, and was moved to its present location in the 1850s. It still retains elements of original Federal period styling.The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

The School Street School is a historic school building at 40 School Street in Haverhill, Massachusetts, United States. The brick three-story building was designed by Joseph R. Richards and built in 1856. Stylistically it is a mixture of a number of popular revival styles of the mid-19th century. The building is located on a hill, and appears from some elevations to only have two stories. Its main entrances are located inside round brownstone arches, a typical Romanesque Revival feature. Its roof line features a deep, bracketed cornice, a typical Italianate feature. The bays of the north and south elevations are separated by decorated brick pilasters, a Greek Revival element. The building has a shallow hip roof which was originally topped by a cupola (removed during the early 20th century).The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

The Merrimack Associates Building is a historic factory building at 25 Locust Avenue in Haverhill, Massachusetts. The eight story brick building, built in 1913, is one of a few industrial buildings to survive redevelopment of the area north of Haverhill's main business district. It was designed by architect Damon Brothers, who also designed the nearby Haverhill Board of Trade Building. Both of these buildings were built as essentially speculative ventures to provide factory space for small businesses associated with the shoe manufacturing business that dominated Haverhill's economy in the first few decades of the 20th century. By the 1940s the building was occupied by other tenants, most notably Western Electric, which occupied the entire building in 1946. Ownership of the building came to the Hamel family in 1943, which owned the building through a series of trusts until 1986. The property has since been rehabilitated and converted to residential use.The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

The L.H. Hamel Leather Company Historic District encompasses the largest tract of intact historical industrial buildings in downtown Haverhill, Massachusetts. The monumental factory complex of the L.H. Hamel Leather Company is located just west of Haverhill's central business district, and is roughly bordered on the west by the right-of-way for the former Boston & Maine Railroad, Essex Street on the south, Locke Street and Duncan Street on the east, and Winter Street on the north. The complex, which was built up between 1886 and 1929, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.The oldest building is a brick warehouse whose central portion was built c. 1886, followed by extensions in c. 1910 and c. 1950. It was at first used by wholesale grocery suppliers before becoming associated with the leatherworks of the early 20th century, and is a reminder of smaller-scale 19th century industrial activity in the area. Between 1911 and 1916 a complex of three eight story concrete buildings was constructed on Essex Street by the Haverhill Building Trust, an consortium of local business leaders. These buildings added 30 acres (12 ha) of manufacturing floor space, and more than $1 million to the city's tax rolls. The premises were leased to companies involved in the manufacture of shoes, the city's dominant industry.The Hamel Company did not immediately figure in these buildings' history. Louis Hamel opened his business in the 1910s as a young man, in premises on Washington Street. His business grew rapidly, and in 1923 he moved a tanning operation into 20,000 square feet (1,900 m2) the Tilton Building at 115-117 Essex Street, and eventually took over the entire building. A one-story brick addition was added to the building for the Hamel Company in 1928-29. Hamel was an early tenant, however, in the Essex Associates Building at 109-113 Essex Street, a brick eight story structure built 1914-15 to a design by Damon Brothers architects, and providing a distinctive offset to the adjacent lighter-colored concrete buildings. Hamel used these buildings to produce shoe manufacturing equipment, developing innovations he licensed to other manufacturers.By 1940 Hamel occupied space in all four buildings, as well as the Shoe and Leather Associates Building at 98-112 Essex Street. In 1941 Hamel purchased the Pentucket Associates Building, 10 Duncan Street, and expanded operations for leather coats into some of that space, leasing the rest out. Over the rest of the decade the company acquired most of the remaining buildings in the district.After the company began closing down operations at the complex in 1973, some buildings were demolished, while others have been rehabilitated and repurposed. The Lang and Burgess Buildings (151 and 143-45 Essex) were converted to offices, while the Tilton, Essex Associates, Pentucket Associates, and other buildings were converted to residences.
