With cattle still roaming the streets and the authorities finally determined to put a stop to the whipping of carpets in exclusive Fayette Park, the Greek Revival was rapidly drawing to a close.

Although in continuation of the "house of the common man", this structure has inherited the new Egyptian bulkiness, the fat, sturdy columns, the prominent door jamb. Its high forehead edged with typical cornice mouldings, this building is typical of several late versions still standing in the city. Especially to be noticed is the lengthy side wing (figure two), a characteristic which has not been seen for some time, probably due to most of the preceding structures being confined to city lots. Here was only barren farmland and the Genesee Turnpike. With close similarity to the columns of the Weighlock, (page 236), the square piers of the wing dominate the composition and produce much of the rural atmosphere.

Especial note should also be made of the twelve paned windows and the heavily pedimented, almost unwieldy, door jamb framing a door of surprisingly well proportioned panels. The small corner board with minute capping is an unusual feature.

But here is none of the delicacy, the refinement of the Greek Revival. Brutal almost to the extinction of any definite characteristics, the rural Revival drew even more quickly to a close than its urban brethren.
