Hammond Heights is an historic neighborhood subdivision on the west side of Worcester, Massachusetts. It includes properties along Germain, Haviland, Highland, and Westland Streets and Institute Road, most of which were built between 1890 and 1918. Stylistically, most of the houses are either Queen Anne or Colonial Revival, although there are some Craftsman-style and English Revival (Tudor) houses. The subdivision was laid out in the 1880s on the farm of John Hammond.[2]

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
