House Types
Fig. 18: House, c. 1880, Garden City, Rich County (7/4/83). This is a twostory, frame hall-parlor house with an original rear kitchen ell. The centrally placed gable on the front contains the kind of decorative shingling popular during the Victorian period. The front porch is a recent addition.
Fig. 19: David Powell house, 1875, Beaver, Beaver County (after Bonar, 1978). Thomas Frazer, an immigrant stonemason from Scotland, built this one-and-a-half-story house out of locally quarried volcanic stone or "black rock." Frazer often worked with the wall dormers and cross gables associated with the Gothic Revival style.
