411 Cedar Street, Gothic Revival, Ca. 1865
A successful fusion of Greek Revival, Italianate, and Gothic Revival elements. The split pediment gable on the main faηade with two windows in the second floor and three openings on the porch is characteristically Greek Revival, and the projecting bracketed lintels and quoins are Italianate. These features are blended, however, with a mixtures of brackets and dentils in the pediment and lintels, window mullions, porch and two story octagonal side tower that makes the whole composition distinctly Gothic Revival.
[Architectural Significance as an Example of its Style:] Excellent."
