Notes
  • Significance: The P.A. Bower House is an atypical example of the side-hall-and-double-parlor plan popularly used in the finer homes of Prince George's County's planter and merchant class, in that it was built much later than most, and with Victorian rather than Federal-era detailing. The side-hall-and-double-parlor plan was most popularly employed from the 1820s to 1850s, while this example dates from the 1870s, making it an unusual carry-over of a previous building tradition. The Italianate style, in general, is uncommon in Prince George's County.
