  • MEMORANDUM TO: Jenny Scofield, National Register Coordinator
    MEMORANDUM TO: Jenny Scofield, National Register Coordinator, Connecticut State Historic Preservation Office FROM: James Sexton RE: House Move, 275 Orange Street, New Haven, William Pinto House Introduction 59 Elm Street Partners, LLC is proposing to relocate the William Pinto House, a Federal-style building located at 275 Orange Street, New Haven, Connecticut 87 feet to the adjacent lot at 283 Orange Street. Built 1810/11, the building was individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) on September 12, 1985 under Criteria B and C in the categories of Invention and Architecture (Eldon Scott, J. Paul Loether, and John Herzan, ed., Sec. 8, n.p). Significance under Criterion B is claimed in the nomination for the property’s association with New Haven’s late-eighteenth and early nineteenth-century residents, William Pinto and Eli Whitney, Under Criterion C, the building is noted as the “best-preserved extant example of the locally rare, gable-to-street form of early-nineteenth-century Federal-style residential frame architecture” (Scott, Loether, and Herzan, Sec. 8, n.p). Reason for the Move The William Pinto House is being moved to preserve it as close to its original location as possible, without it being overshadowed by the new building planned for the site and adjacent lot. The project involves three parcels: the one occupied by the Pinto House and two others that contain long-standing parking lots. By moving the house, the developer will be able to combine two adjacent lots to take advantage of economies of scale provided by a larger building area while creating residential units that will satisfy the demand for housing in the downtown area and substantially transform a portion of New Haven’s downtown.
