It was built in 1917-1918 for attorney and politician William Henry Long and his wife Jennie M. Long.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a fine, well-preserved example of the Neo-classical Revival style houses popular in North Carolina around the turn of the century. It is associated with Long, a prominent Greenville attorney who served as mayor from 1901 to 1903. It is also regarded as one of the few remaining residential resources reflecting Greenville's early twentieth century growth.","narrative":"Built in 1917-1918 in downtown Greenville, the two-story brick house was designed for William Henry Long, a locally prominent attorney and politician, and his wife Jennie M. Long. Its monumental pedimented portico, supported by four composite columns, dominates the north front, while a one-story porte cochere with paired Tuscan columns stands on the west side. Stone keystones, lozenges set in herringbone brick panels, and iron balustrades decorate the front facade. The interior retains its center hall plan, molded plaster finishes, and Colonial Revival mantels. Long was a mayor of Greenville from 1901 to 1903, and the house is valued for its association with him and for its representation of the town's early twentieth century growth. It is also among the few remaining residential examples from that period in a town where much of its heritage has been lost. The house was converted to offices with only cosmetic changes to its interior.","period_of_significance":"1917-1918","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Neo-classical Revival","criteria":["B","C"],"status_note":"Recently renovated and used as professional offices by a law firm.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-haiku-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.1-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 17:11:40.907472-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/95/7217/47721795/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/82003499.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82003499/cdad95ab07-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82003499/cdad95ab07-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Tradewinds","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:William_J._Long_House.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Tradewinds</a>, <a href=\"https://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:William_J._Long_House.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47721795","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_H._Long_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q19986847"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/pitt-county/long-willian-h-house-82003499/"}
