The houses were built for leading citizens and show Italianate, Gothic and French Second Empire influences. Numbers One and Nineteen Grove Street are described as the most significant architectural components.","narrative":"Above Tarrytown's commercial center, the northern end of Grove Street holds a compact cluster of five mid-nineteenth century houses and a carriage barn. Built between 1848 and 1868, they housed the town's leading citizens, who sought Hudson River views after the 1848 railroad pushed the population up the hill. Number One, a brick house with a mansard-roofed tower, was built in 1848 by merchant Jacob Odell, Tarrytown's first president, and now serves as the Historical Society's headquarters. Odell also built Number Fifteen in 1860 as a wedding present for his daughter. Number Nineteen dates from 1856, Number Eight from 1868 and was home to three generations of doctors, and Number Two was built in 1860 by newspaper editor Marcus Raymond. The group displays Italianate, Gothic and French Second Empire influences, with original brackets, towers, marble fireplaces and spiral staircases surviving. Mature trees, lawns and stone and iron fences complete a largely intact period streetscape.","period_of_significance":"1800-1899","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Italianate, Gothic and French Second Empire influences (American Victorian)","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is marked good; the buildings are described as largely intact and occupied.
