The Clovis Robert Block is a historic mixed-use commercial and residential block at 338-348 Main Street (the corner of Cabot Street) in south Holyoke, Massachusetts. The four story brick building was built in 1881 for Clovis Robert, an expatriate French Canadian, and expanded in 1888, both to an early design of Holyoke architect George P. B. Alderman. It was built during a period of major migration by French Canadians to the area, seeking work in the local mills. When built it offered two storefronts on Cabot Street and three on Main Street, with the upper floors containing fifteen residential units. The interior of the building has retained little of its original character: the commercial spaces were extensively altered over the years, and the apartments above suffered from neglect and vandalism.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]
