31 Savage Street (George N. Barnard Tenement)Entry/Object ID
SAVAGE.031.1Scope and Content
Constructed ca. 1872. A folk variant of a one-story front piazza, supported by jigsaw-cut columns and Italianate style balustrades, fronts a plain 2-story Greek Revival style house built in 1872 by George N. Barnard, the Civil War photographer who operated a studio on King Street. The first-floor facade retains its simple Greek Revival central architrave with narrow lines of transom and side lights and full-height sash windows that open directly onto the front piazza. A plain parapet screens the low hipped roof. Barnard built other houses along the street for speculation, for example, the flat roofed, side-hall-plan dwellings at 36 Savage Street and 38 Savage Street.
