It cites the cubic form, projecting central gable, oculus window, modillioned eaves and a nearly intact interior. It also notes Kenyon's service in the House of Representatives after the Civil War.","narrative":"William Kenyon House at 104 Fair Street in Kingston, New York, is a large brick residence built about 1850 in the Italianate Villa style. It has two and one-half stories, a stone and brick foundation, a low hipped roof with modillioned eaves, and symmetrical two-over-two windows with stone cornices and sills. A projecting central gable on the west facade holds an oculus window. Inside, a side-hall plan includes a finely crafted stair, paired parlors with pocket doors, plaster cornices, Greek Revival moldings and several intact marble mantels. A simple brick outbuilding, probably a summer kitchen, stands behind the house. The house was listed as an example of the center-gable form of Italianate design in Kingston, with an interior that keeps nearly all of its original character. Fair Street was one of the city's more prosperous mid-nineteenth-century neighborhoods. William S. Kenyon, the original owner, was later elected to the House of Representatives after the Civil War.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1850","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Mid-19th Century/Italianate Villa","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Still used as a single dwelling, as listed under both historic and current function.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:53.135774-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/01001387.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/01001387/016690740d-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/01001387/016690740d-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:William_Kenyon_House,_Kingston,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:William_Kenyon_House,_Kingston,_NY.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322642","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Kenyon_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q8013955"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ulster-county/kenyon-william-house-01001387/"}
