English: The White-Adam House, 46 Norwood Avenue, Buffalo, New York, May 2021. An exuberant display of the then-trending Colonial Revival style designed in 1898 by locally-based architect Charles Day Swan, the house's generously set-back façade features most prominently a centrally situated, semicircular sunroom wherein leaded glass windows with fine tracery alternate with engaged Doric columns. To the left of this is a narrow, semi-enclosed entrance terrace framed by arches set between still more Doric columns and pilasters. Above are a pair of twin bay windows with dentil rows delineating their top lines and still more leaded glass, a moderately-pitched hipped roof punctuated by front-gabled dormers replete with still more Classical detailing, and a porte-cochère on the south side of the building with enclosed balcony above. The house was built for John Clarke Adam (born 1856), head of the Lake View Malt House who that same year had been nominated inaugural president of the United States Maltsters' Association at their founding convention in Chicago. A well-known fixture in Buffalo high society, Clarke remained in the house for the next six years before selling it off in 1904. His last recorded Buffalo address was the Hotel Touraine, where he lived in 1905 and was listed as being a commercial malt merchant with an office in the Chamber of Commerce Building downtown. He appears to have moved to New York City a year later. Second owner Robert Borthwick Adam, Jr. (1863-1940), was president (and son of the founder) of Adam, Meldrum & Anderson, one of Buffalo's premier main-street department stores; he lived there until decamping for the former Dr. Alexander Main Curtiss House in 1922.
