Architecturally it is a Classic Revival house with Victorian touches such as the vergeboard and bay window.","narrative":"This two-story frame house at 1531 3rd Avenue in Columbus, Georgia, dates to about 1900 and sits in what was once the elite High Uptown neighborhood. Built in the Classic Revival style, it has a bay window on the first floor, a classical porch whose upper balustrade forms a second-floor balcony, and a pediment-like gable with a jigsaw-cut vergeboard. Inside is a side-hall plan with three rooms up and three down. An earlier one-story dwelling appears at the address on 1889 and 1895 maps. By 1902 Andrew Williams, first listed as an editor and later as an insurance and real estate agent, lived here, and he was later associated with Swift Manufacturing Co. In 1906 and 1908 he shared the address with boarders, so the house became a modified boarding house. It is recognized locally as the type of home a prominent turn-of-the-century citizen would have owned, and for the way its builder blended classical and Victorian details. It remains a private dwelling in good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Classic Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Listed as a private dwelling in good condition.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:41.408336-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_GA/80001127.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"04000669","name":"High Uptown Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/georgia/high-uptown-historic-district-04000669/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/93206400","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q134399698"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/georgia/muscogee-county/building-at-1531-3rd-avenue-80001127/"}
