George Cobb House
The George Cobb House is an historic house at 24 William Street in Worcester, Massachusetts. Built about 1875, it is a well-preserved and little-altered example of late Gothic Revival architecture. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.〔
==Description and history==
The Cobb House is set in a predominantly residential area just west of Worcester's central business district, on the north side of William Street. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame house, with a slate hip roof, slightly projecting central gabled pavilion, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. Its front facade, facing south, is three bays wide, with single-story polygonal bay windows flanking the entrance. The entrance, set in the projecting pavilion, is sheltered by a porch that extends between the near corners of the flanking bays, with supporting square columns, arched openings, and a low balustrade. On the second level, a three-part round-arch window is set above the entrance under a stylized cap. The gable of the projecting section has Stick style bargeboard, and is flanked at the roof level by gabled dormers with a simplified version of the same decoration. Windows on the side elevations have bracketed sills and lintels, with the first-floor lintels capped by gabled cornices, and those on the second floor flat. A two-story polygonal bay projects from the right side, just below a steeply pitched gable.〔
The house was built about 1875, and was first occupied by George Cobb, a fish and oyster merchant.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for George Cobb House )〕
