Summary edit

Description
English: The Horace and Henrietta Parmelee House, 282 Linwood Avenue, Buffalo, New York, June 2020. The panelled bargeboard that's affixed to the edge of the front gable is an unusual feature to find on an Italianate-style house such as this, yet here it is, lovingly restored and matched not only by the bargeboard on the dormer window on the south side of the façade (not visible from this angle) but also the trim that surrounds the projecting, bracketed attic window within the gable. The Tuscan-columned front portico is one of the few extant Italianate-style ones in the city. Another way the house is remarkable is for the longevity of its ownership by the same family: it was built in 1869 as the home of Horace Parmelee (1808-1887), a hardware merchant whose store on lower Main Street specialized in iron cookstoves; his wife Henrietta (1822-1903) remained there after his death and it continued to be owned by their heirs until 1997. The Baptist Manor apartment tower rises at far left.
