It shows both late-eighteenth-century vernacular building traditions and early-twentieth-century Colonial Revival taste. It was also home to locally prominent families, mostly descendants of the Nott family, until 1977.","narrative":"Norman Vale, also known as the Nott House, is a three-part dwelling on Nott Road in Guilderland, Albany County, New York. A tall two-and-one-half-story center block is flanked by one-and-one-half-story wings, and the house sits on a nearly ten-acre parcel in the Normanskill floodplain. Built around 1790, it has a steeply pitched roof with forked rafters and stone foundation walls, reflecting older vernacular building methods. Inside, Federal mantels, plaster cornices and multi-light sash survive alongside Colonial Revival woodwork added in the 1930s, when descendants of the Nott family remodeled the house and moved the original entry to the west wing. The Nott family owned the property until 1977. Its importance rests on both the early Federal construction and the later Colonial Revival changes, which together record two centuries of changing architectural taste and settlement in the Albany area.","period_of_significance":"c.1790-1930","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Early 19th Century: Federal; Early 20th Century: Colonial Revival","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Still used as a single-family dwelling; the exterior is covered in aluminum siding added in the mid-twentieth century.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:48.302677-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/09001079.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75316297","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Vale","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7052893"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/albany-county/norman-vale-09001079/"}
