With pediments now capping windows and doors and with brutal scale now so cormnonplace, this house has retained much despite evident decay. The ovethanging linters are especially noteworthy and in their proportion attain some classic feeling. The doorway (figure three) with sidelights, acanthus carving and pilaster strips, vies for Revival perfection with the entablature and dental mouldings. With cornice projections, this is a typical Greek Revival home of the latest phase and serves to illustrate the extended use of both the cornice wings (first employed twenty years before)* , and the enatablature.
The scale, overlapping clapboards, and the length once more used for the main facade, should not be overlooked in evaluating this structure, however, for they are indications of final steps.
