Summary
[edit]DescriptionRosary Hall, Daemen College - fmr Crouch-Waite Mansion - Amherst, New York - 20200624.jpg |
English: Rosary Hall, on the campus of Daemen College, Amherst, New York, June 2020. Designed by prominent Buffalo architect George Cary, this Italian Renaissance-style beauty sports gleaming white stucco walls, a low-pitched hip roof of Spanish tile, and a fenestration scheme that employs a Palladian motif on the ground floor (strict symmetry, prominent fanlights placed scrupulously over all windows and doors) but betrays Mediterranean influences above (a decorative wrought-iron balcony is perched above the entrance, crowned in turn by an oculus window and a small front gable). The building was once the main house on the 23-acre country estate belonging to Herbert Crouch (1871-1938), who worked at the time as general agent for the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company; he and his wife Grace lived in the house from its construction in 1910 until their move to Redlands, California in 1936. In Crouch's day, the house was surrounded by vast manicured gardens, an apple, pear and cherry orchard, a man-made pond with swans, and fields of wheat adjacent to Main Street. Behind the house was a garage with a caretaker's apartment above, now Serra Hall. After his tenure in the house, Crouch sold the mansion to George Waite (1879-1947), the Scottish-born cofounder of the Irving Air Chute Company, the world's first mass producer of parachutes whose factory was located on Jefferson Avenue in the Hamlin Park section of Buffalo. A year after Waite's death, his widow sold the house to the newly established Rosary Hill College (renamed Daemen College in 1976) who uses the building to house their Admissions, Alumni and External Relations departments. |
