The Charles Lundberg Three-Decker is a historic triple decker house at 67 Catharine Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. The house was built c. 1892, and is a well-preserved local example of the form with Queen Anne styling. The building follows a standard side-hall plan, with a flanking polygonal bay. The projecting section has shingled skirt sections between the floors, with small brackets in the resulting overhang. The main roof cornice is deep, with decorative brackets regularly spaced. The front entry is sheltered by a single-story porch which has a spindled frieze and balustrade. It is supported by very slender turned columns with brackets at the upper end, below the frieze. The stairwell windows feature decorative stained glass. Charles Lundberg, the first owner, also owned the adjacent houses; he was a clerk. Most of the early residents were of Swedish extraction.[2]

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