It is a frame structure with clapboard walls, a fieldstone foundation and a basement. Its mansard roof is covered in imbricated slate and pierced by dormers, and a small bracketed cornice and two-over-two windows add detail to a symmetrical facade of three bays across the front. The ground floor keeps its cast iron storefront, with glass windows, serrated ironwork below them and a recessed entrance. The only visible change recorded is the addition of awnings. The building stands on a busy street in the heart of the business district and remains in commercial and residential use. It was recognized as an excellent, largely unaltered example of nineteenth-century commercial and residential architecture, and it forms part of a group of survey properties in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Cincinnati Mansard","criteria":[],"status_note":"Exterior condition listed as fair; present use is commercial/residential, and the only visible change is the addition of awnings.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:12.456157-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/79002698.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79002698/4413c37031-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79002698/4413c37031-1600.webp","licence":"Public domain","author":"Nyttend","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mardot_Antique_Shop_site.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Nyttend</a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Mardot_Antique_Shop_site.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71985446","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mardot_Antique_Shop","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6758698"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/hamilton-county/mardot-antique-shop-79002698/"}
