It was built 1845-47 for Hermon Camp and sits on about 4.5 acres of grounds.","why_significant":"The nomination argues it is significant to local history as the home of Hermon Camp, a prominent 19th-century Trumansburg leader, merchant and public official. It is also significant to architecture as a noteworthy New York example of the Greek Revival monumental house type, with a two-story central block, columned portico and flanking wings. It is cited as one of the largest Greek Revival residences in the region.","narrative":"Set on a slight rise behind wooded grounds in Trumansburg, this red brick mansion was built between 1845 and 1847 for Hermon Camp. A full-height portico with six fluted Greek Doric columns marks the two-story central block, which is flanked by lower wings and a carriage house extending about 70 feet to the rear. Inside, a central hall divides paired parlors, a library and a dining room, each with a black marble fireplace. Camp arrived in Trumansburg in 1805 as a young storekeeper and became a colonel of cavalry in the War of 1812, sheriff, assemblyman, postmaster and first president of the Tompkins County Bank. The house was designed by Geneva architect Thomas Judd and is cited as one of the largest Greek Revival residences in the region. Camp also laid out extensive grounds reflecting his interest in trees and plants. It was listed for its local historical links and as a fine example of New York Greek Revival design.","period_of_significance":"19th Century (built 1845-47)","architect_builder":"Thomas Judd, a Geneva architect (designer); built for Hermon Camp","architectural_style":"Greek Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Described as maintained in quite good condition, with moderate alterations limited to less prominent interior areas; a private residence, with the east wing rented as an apartment.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:40.000315-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/73001279.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73001279/9a663a3260-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73001279/9a663a3260-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"IMtheEyeInTheSky at en.wikipedia","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HermonCampHouse.png\" rel=\"noopener\">IMtheEyeInTheSky at en.wikipedia</a>, <a href=\"http://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:HermonCampHouse.png"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322471","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermon_Camp_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5741996"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/tompkins-county/camp-hermon-house-73001279/"}
