    11 Houston Street Greenock PA16 8DA

    11 HOUSTON STREET Greenock PA16 8DA Residential Development Opportunity 11 Houston Street Greenock 2 OPPorTUNITY We are delighted to present a site to the market at 11 Houston Street, Greenock which lies close to the Greenock waterfront. The available site extends to approximately 0.35 acres (0.14 hectares) and previously had planning consent for the development of 22 apartments with 26 surfaced car parking spaces. A suite of technical information is available for review upon registration of interest. LOCATION The site is set on the western edge of Greenock Town Centre on Houston Street. Greenock is the largest town within the Local Authority area of Inverclyde. It lies approximately 27 miles west of the City of Glasgow on the southern side of the Firth of Clyde. Greenock has historically been one of the most important Scottish ports and whilst not at the same level of activity as it once was, is still a thriving port and provides docking for Ocean Liners. Greenock provides a wide range of retail and leisure offers within close proximity of the subjects and has excellent road and public transport connections to Glasgow and the surrounding areas. The M8 motorway provides direct access to Glasgow and Edinburgh and Greenock has an extensive rail network with the nearest station to the site being Greenock West station which lies approximately 0.6 miles south east of the subjects. This provides rail connections to Glasgow and Paisley. Ferry Services in nearby Gourock provide passengers and cars with access to Dunoon and Kilcreggan. In close proximity to the subjects there are a number of local amenities such as Ardgowan Bowling Club, Greenock Cricket Club and Greenock Golf Club.

    Report: Federal Houses Landmarked Or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999

    GREENWICH VILLAGE SOCIETY FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION Making the Case Federal Houses Landmarked or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999-2016 The many surviving Federal houses in Lower Manhattan are a special part of the heritage of New York City. The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation has made the documentation and preservation of these houses an important part of our mission. This report highlights the Society’s mission in action by showing nearly one hundred fifty of these houses in a single document. The Society either proposed the houses in this report for individual landmark designation or for inclusion in historic districts, or both, or has advocated for their designation. Special thanks to Jiageng Zhu for his efforts in creating this report. 32 Dominick Street, built c.1826, landmarked in 2012 Federal houses were built between ca. 1790 to ca. 1835. The style was so named because it was the first American architectural style to emerge after the Revolutionary War. In elevation and plan, Federal Period row houses were quite modest. Characterized by classical proportions and almost planar smoothness, they were ornamented with simple detailing of lintels, dormers, and doorways. These houses were typically of load bearing masonry construction, 2-3 stories high, three bays wide, and had steeply pitched roofs. The brick facades were laid in a Flemish bond which alternated a stretcher and a header in every row. All structures in this report were originally built as Federal style houses, though
