The two brick townhouses show distinctive elements of their period. Together they form a significant group of period buildings in an area that has seen much demolition and modification, and they reflect residential preferences on one of the city's most important streets.","narrative":"Three buildings at 88, 90 and 94 Market Street in Poughkeepsie form a row that spans more than a century of local building. At the center is the Mott-Van Kleeck House, a simple two-and-a-half-story clapboarded frame house dating to about 1780, with a Federal-style doorway and a later nineteenth-century tower. It is identified as the oldest frame structure within the city limits. On either side stand brick townhouses from the 1880s and about 1890, with fan carving, three-sided and square bays, peaked slate roofs, iron cresting, stone trim and Eastlake-style porches. Market Street was the route of the King's Highway, later the Albany Post Road and Route 9, the main road between New York City and Albany. The row is valued as a rare surviving group of intact, generously sized period buildings in an area that has lost many others. Local residents recognized its importance after the house narrowly avoided demolition by urban renewal in the mid-1970s.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Federal-style entrance on the Mott-Van Kleeck House; Queen Anne-style brick house at No. 94 with Eastlake-style porch","criteria":[],"status_note":"Originally residences on a major commercial street, the buildings have recently been preserved through adaptation as commercial or professional buildings.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:42.338053-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/82001149.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82001149/58d93ffccb-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82001149/58d93ffccb-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Market_Street_Row.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</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:Market_Street_Row.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75312542","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_Street_Row","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6770766"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/dutchess-county/market-street-row-82001149/"}
