Explain contributing and noncontributing resources if necessary. Begin with a summary paragraph that briefly describes the general characteristics of the property, such as its location, setting, size, and significant features.) Summary Erected in 1916 by newspaper publisher and political leader Clarence Phelps Dodge, the Dodge-Hamlin House meets the registration requirements specified in the Multiple Property Documentation Form “Historic Resources of Colorado College, Colorado Springs, Colorado.”1 Colorado College acquired the house in 1943 following the death of second owner Clarence C. Hamlin, an influential newspaper publisher and political leader, lawyer, and mining investor. As a facility of the college, the building has housed students, faculty, and staff and is associated with the historic context “Development of Colorado College During World War II and Beyond, 1941- 96.” The well preserved residence is significant for its historic association with Colorado College, its association with persons prominent in the city’s history, its representation of the Mission Revival style, its early twentieth-century landscape architecture, and its representation of the work of Colorado Springs architect Nicolaas van den Arend. The property type represented is Noncollegiate Residences, defined as privately built dwellings later acquired and used by the college. The Dodge-Hamlin House, a historic residential property in the western portion of the Colorado College campus, is located at 1148 North Cascade Avenue (formerly addressed as 1122 Wood Avenue) in central Colorado Springs (Photograph 1).2 The substantial Mission Revival-style residence displays tan stucco walls atop a rhyolite foundation with decorative inlays of granite.3 The stucco is heavily textured, described in van den Arend’s drawings as a “pebble dash” finish. The irregularly shaped house is two and three stories and features porches on the north, east, and south; roof top decks on the south, west, and north; and balconies on the west. There are flat and arched windows with wood or stone sills. The roof, complex in form, is covered with asphalt composition shingles and displays widely overhanging eaves, shaped rafter tails, and tall stucco chimneys. Historically, this block of Wood Avenue was lined with large, architecturally distinguished single-family homes adjacent to the college grounds. Over time, Colorado College acquired many of the houses and incorporated them into its campus, preserving some for its use while removing others and erecting new residential facilities. North of the nominated property are three large historic residences now owned by the college, while a newer residential hall lies across the south lawn. To the east across Wood Avenue are other historic residences employed as student housing and newer residence halls. The Dodge-Hamlin House is set back from Wood Avenue, and the land declines at the rear, providing the property with views of college athletic fields, the Van Briggle Pottery Building, the Monument Valley, and scenic vistas of Pike’s Peak and the Rampart Range. Architect Nicolaas van den Arend designed the house and its grounds to take full advantage of this setting through the use of lawns and terraces, trees and shrubs, encircling balustrades, stone and stucco walls, stone stairways and seating, porches, windows, and balconies. The architecture and landscape are described in greater detail below. 1 Andrea Lucas and R. Laurie Simmons, “Historic Resources of Colorado College, Colorado Springs, Colorado,” National Register of Historic Places Multiple Property Documentation Form, 13 September 1996. 2 This portion of Wood Avenue is now wholly within the Colorado College campus and is no longer a public street. The house is formally addressed on North Cascade Avenue, a block to the east. 3 Rhyolite is a generally light-colored extrusive igneous rock with quartz, alkali feldspars, glass, and biotite mica often included in its composition. It was quarried in Colorado and used to construct a number of historic buildings and foundations in Colorado Springs. 3 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5/31/2012) Dodge-Hamlin House El Paso, Colorado Name of Property County and State ________________________________________________________________________________________ Description House, 1916, Building, Contributing, Map Reference A North Rather than facing east toward the public street, the house faces north. 4 The front (north wall) of the house (roughly 65’ X 63’) includes a hipped roof wing at the west end, a central tower with a projecting one-story flat roof porch, and a flat roof wing on the east (Photographs 2-4). On the north wall of the west hipped roof wing, the basement wall is above grade and composed of polygonal rhyolite inset with decorative clusters of granite, while the upper two stories are clad with stucco. A nine-light casement window with a stone lintel and sill is toward the west end of the basement level, while the stories above display an expanse of blank wall. There is a second nine-light casement window toward the center of the basement wall, with nine-light casement windows slightly offset on each story above. Further east are small paired four-light windows just above the basement level and a large panel of nine four-light windows on the second story. A recently added full-height projecting stucco chimney is adjacent to the window panel; the chimney has tapered shoulders at the basement level. Small paired four-light windows are east of the chimney. Toward the center of the house is the shed roof twoand-a-half-story tower, which is set back slightly from the west wing and has a projecting, stucco entrance porch. The west wall of the porch features a large, arched multi-light window that frames a view of the landscape to the west. The porch includes arched entrances on the north and east accessing a paneled wood door with multi-light sidelights in the tower.5 The porch floor is concrete inlaid with blue Van Briggle tiles. French doors on the second story of the tower open onto a deck on the roof of the porch, and a small four-light window is aligned above the doors on the third story.

  • 52 East 64Th Street an Architectural History
    52 East 64th Street An Architectural History Written by Francis Morrone American Architectural Historian & Acclaimed Author of "The Architectural Guidebook to New York City" Presented by the Deanna Kory Team Corcoran Group Real Estate he house at 52 East 64th Street was originally a four-story, brownstone-fronted house built in or before 1878. The earliest recorded use of the house is as Miss Edwards' School in 1878. It Tis possible that the house is slightly older than this. (See New York Evening Post, September 5, 1878.) The house was remodeled and dramatically transformed in 1916-17. The last owner of the house before its transformation into what we see today was the German-born psychiatrist and neurologist Dr. William Hirsch (1858-1937), one of the "alienists" consulted in the murder case against Harry Thaw, the shooter of the architect Stanford White, in 1906. Dr. Hirsch hired the prominent architect Harry Allan Jacobs to design a rear addition to the house in 1901. The house was sold by Dr. Hirsch to the lawyer Foster Crampton of 935 Park Avenue in 1916. Crampton (d. 1926) was a noted sportsman, commodore of the Westhampton Yacht Club, president of the Westhampton Country Club, and life member of the Crescent Athletic Club. (His obituary appeared in the Times on April 23, 1926.) A January 4, 1916, item in the New York Times places Mr. and Mrs. Foster Crampton at the Greenbrier Hotel in White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. That would have been only a few weeks before Foster Crampton purchased 52 East 64th Street and hired the Greenbrier's architect, Frederick Sterner, to remodel the house.

  • Frederick J. Sterner
    ARCHITECTS OF COLORADO BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Architect: Sterner, Frederick J. Birth/Death Dates: 1862-1931 Practice Dates: 1884-1908 (Denver) 1905-1924 (New York) Firms: Varian and Sterner 1884-1900 Sterner and Williamson 1905-1913 (State Business Directory dates) Biographical Information Frederick Sterner made a significant contribution to the architectural scene in Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo during his two decades of practice in Colorado. Usually working in professional partnerships, his designs ranged from Richardsonian Romanesque, to Colonial and Dutch Colonial Revival, Mission Revival, Italian Renaissance and Shingle style. Catering to the residential needs of a largely upper class clientele, he also received numerous commissions from the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, including its Minnequa Steel Works Office Building in Pueblo. Frederick Janius Sterner came to the United States at the age of sixteen from his birthplace in England. By 1882 he worked as a draftsman in the Denver office of Frank E. Edbrooke & Co. and left two years later to establish a partnership with Phillip Varian. The combination lasted until about 1901. Sterner then practiced alone but with the increasing assistance of his draftsman, George H. Williamson. Williamson gradually took on greater responsibility and became a formal partner in 1905 as Sterner reduced his Denver practice and concentrated on New York City. By 1909 Sterner lived full-time in New York and ceased to be involved in Denver architecture, though he is credited along with Williamson in the design of the Daniels and Fisher Department Store completed in 1911. During the 1880s, medieval and Romanesque elements dominated the output of Varian and Sterner, often used in the manner of Henry Hobson Richardson.
