Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Dr. Ralph M. DeGraff House, 343 Starin Avenue, Buffalo, New York, December 2020. A good example of the Tudor Revival style as applied to the upper-middle-class housing of the era, the DeGraff House is a bit more streamlined and modestly proportioned than what was being built around the same time in, for example, the Parkside West Historic District, though still much more fully realized than the Minimal Traditionals you'd soon begin to see out in the suburbs. The half-timbering on the façade that most commonly typifies Tudor Revivalism is absent, but here it's the roofline that's the tell: the main gables are oriented to the sides of the building and intersected perpendicularly by a dramatic front gable framing the entrance; asymmetrical, situated off-center, and with a dramatic sweeping slope at right. The handsome bay window at left and the decorative trim around the front entrance complete the picture. The house was built in 1927 for Dr. Ralph Maurice DeGraff (1892-1944), a pediatric radiologist at the Children's Hospital of Buffalo who also served as a professor at the University of Buffalo.
