Skinny House (North End narrow house)

The 'Skinny House' at 44 Hull Street in the North End is a notably narrow, three-story brick residence often cited as one of Boston's architectural curiosities; its width is commonly reported as about 10.4 feet at the widest point. Its unusually slender proportions make it a frequent subject of photographs, postcards, and internet memes about narrow houses and quirky urban architecture. Images of the house are widely circulated as a humorous exemplar of cramped city living and creative property use.
