The Abraham Brower House is located at Water and Division streets in New Hamburg, New York, United States. It is a mid-19th century home of one the hamlet's early residents that was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. It is a modest brick structure, built in a vernacular interpretation of the Greek Revival style popular in the decades preceding its construction. A kitchen wing was added after the Civil War, but otherwise there have been few significant alterations since then. ==Building== The main block is a one-and-a-half-story, three-bay structure of brick laid in common bond. The gabled roof is shingled in slate laid in a decorative floral pattern. A chimney rises from the south side.〔 Across the west-facing front facade runs a hip-roofed porch. Its columns, and the doorway, match the nearby Adolph Brower House. The front windows are trimmed in stone.〔 A smaller, similar addition was built later on the east (rear) elevation. Its roof decoration matches the main house. A full-length porch on its south side has been enclosed in clapboard. There is also a small brick outbuilding with asphalt-shingled roof at the northwest corner of the house's lot.〔 The interior follows the classic Greek Revival side-hall pattern. Most rooms, save the kitchen, are as they originally were. Woodwork, especially a mantel in the parlor, is also preserved. A full brick beehive oven remains in the cellar of the addition.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Abraham Brower House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
