Frenchtown District Map
"Late 19th and 20th century. Revival Styles, circa 1895-1940, coded D
Revival styles are employed in less than 10% of District buildings, Making this collection of buildings the smallest stylistic group. Except for one church and two commercial properties all examples are residential, four of which are frame and the remainder, brick. Colonial Revival-influenced houses are most numerous. A concentration of circa 1905-15 brick Classic Boxes (Foursquares with Colonial Revival porches) are located in the southwest corner of the District. A few more modest one-and-a-half story houses exhibit Colonial-detailed porches, and one turn-of-the-century flat is embellished with
quasi-Colonial/Renaissance revival ornament. Late Colonial Revival
one-story Cape Cod cottages are represented by two frame district
houses built circa 1935-40. From the same period are three brick one-and-a-half story Tudor Revival houses exhibiting the characteristic
dominant front gable motif. A profusion of Revival style ornament is displayed in the cast iron storefront and pressed metal second story : and in the elaborated pressed metal cornice." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
