Taken from the NRHP nomination form, "The Tome mansion (.1850, remodeled 1869) was the largest house in Port Deposit. Remaining are the carriage house (.80 South Main Street) , now occupied by Keetley Motor Co., and the gas house across the street near the railroad tracks. Built by Italian masons, these buildings followed A.J. Downing's design principles. The gas house is Italianate, but the carriage house has Swiss features. The carriage house has a greater overhang and very deep V-shaped brackets."
