  • Styles of Residential Architecture in Rochester
    Styles of Rochester's Residential Architecture1 Knowing the age and style of your house and learning about the period when it was constructed will enable you to make better maintenance, repair, and rehab decisions. Ideally, we want to enhance the appearance of our homes in a way that will increase their value, complement our neighborhoods, and retain the historic integrity of the properties. Whether a house is simple and unadorned or replete with Queen Anne detailing, its design and the elements that comprise this design were carefully chosen to conform to styles that often developed over decades and even centuries. It is important to understand your house well enough to avoid compromising the design with inappropriate additions, subtractions, or repairs. Your house might not easily fall within any of the following categories, or it might have details from two or more architectural periods. Don't worry if you can't place it in a particular slot; some houses simply cannot be identified by a particular style. It's perfectly acceptable, and sometimes preferable, to describe your house by its layout and details and forget about the style. 1 The information on styles comes from Rehab Rochester: A Sensible Guide for Old- House Maintenance, Repair and Rehabilitation, published by the Landmark Society of Western New York with support of the City of Rochester, and available in full text at www.landmarksociety.org. City of Rochester, NY Preservation Guidelines 2005 A.1 Residential Architectural Styles Federal (1780s-1820s) This style, found in only a handful of houses in Characteristic features include: the city of Rochester, was inspired by English interpretations of classical motifs.

  • An Architectural and Historical Analysis of the Caretaker's House at the Winneshiek County Poor Farm, Decorah Township, Winneshiek County, Iowa
    AN ARCHITECTURAL AND HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF THE CARETAKER’S HOUSE AT THE WINNESHIEK COUNTY POOR FARM, DECORAH TOWNSHIP, WINNESHIEK COUNTY, IOWA Section 14, T98N, R8W Special Report 1 Prepared for Winneshiek County Historic Preservation Commission Courthouse Annex 204 West Broadway Decorah, Iowa 52101 Prepared by Branden K. Scott With contributions by Lloyd Bolz, Derek V. Lee, and David G. Stanley Bear Creek Archeology, Inc. P.O. Box 347 Cresco, Iowa 52136 David G. Stanley, Director February 2012 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY This report presents the findings of an investigation concerning the Winneshiek County Poor Farm (96-00658), and more specifically the Caretaker’s House (96-00644) within the county farm district. This investigation was prepared for the Winneshiek County Historic Preservation Commission because the Caretaker’s House, a structure potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion A is to be dismantled. This investigation seeks to document the architectural aspects of the property with emphasis on the Caretaker’s House, create a historical and cultural context of the farm, determine the potential significance of the property and each of its contributing/non- contributing features, and provide data necessary for future considerations of the property. This document was prepared by Bear Creek Archeology, Inc. of Cresco, Iowa, and any opinions expressed herein represent the views of the primary author. This report documents the Winneshiek County Poor Farm (96-00658) as a historic district containing three distinct buildings and three associated structures. The district consists of the newly constructed (relatively speaking) Wellington Place care facility (96-00660), the Winneshiek County Poor House (96-00659), the Caretaker’s House (96-00644), two sheds, and a picnic shelter, all of which are settled upon 2.7 ha (6.6 ac) on the west side of Freeport, Iowa.

There is an off-centered gable dormer with an original two-light window. Both elevations feature original one-over-one double-hung wood windows with and without the aluminum awnings. The side elevations feature a two-story projecting rectangular bay towards the rear. Suddath House 410 Grover St. The Queen Anne was popularized in England by 19th century architects such as Richard Norman Shaw, in which they used Medieval precedents for the popular style. The house style became popular in the United States due to its published plans in pattern books, architectural manuals, and mail-order house plans. This architectural style featured numerous ornamentation and details to the exterior, especially to avoid smooth-walls. Architects and designers incorporated pattern wall claddings, projecting bay windows, and oriels. One-story partial-width or wraparound porches were common features to accentuate the asymmetrical façade. Porch ornamentation varied from spindle work, classical detailing, and brackets.
