Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The John T. Gard House, 671 West Ferry Street, Buffalo, New York, March 2021. Dating to 1891, this exemplar of the Queen Anne style distinguishes itself in two ways: with its steeply-pitched hip roof, fairly unusual to see in a style that generally favors front-gabled designs, and the unusually ample girth of its corner tower. Notable also are the diamond tracery on the dormer window, and the squared-off Doric pillars that support the front porch between the elegant spindle balustrades. Original owner John Taylor Gard (1853-1920) was a Welsh-born merchant tailor who got his start working under George Sipple and eventually rose to a prominent position in the trade: he was a charter member, prominent officer, and ultimately president of the National Merchant Tailors' Exchange. He lived in the house until his death. |
