It was designed by the Knoxville, Tennessee firm of Barber and Klutz and built in 1901-1902 under the supervision of local builder C. B. West for James L. Fleming.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a fine and significant surviving example of Queen Anne residential architecture, notable for its unusual cast-iron porch treatment. It also ties the house to Fleming, a mayor and state senator who helped establish the East Carolina Teachers' Training School, later East Carolina University, and to Greenville's first major period of urban growth from 1880 to 1910.","narrative":"Built in 1901-1902 on a corner lot in Greenville, North Carolina, the James L. Fleming House is a two-and-one-half-story frame Queen Anne residence designed by the Knoxville, Tennessee firm of Barber and Klutz and built by local contractor C. B. West. Its most distinctive feature is the cast-iron work on the wraparound porch, including supports, brackets, frieze and balustrade, echoed in the fence enclosing three sides of the lot. The house has a central-hall plan, a three-stage corner tower, and a slate hipped roof with pedimented gables. Fleming served as mayor of Greenville for several terms and, as a state senator, helped establish the East Carolina Teachers' Training School, later East Carolina University. The house is regarded as a visible link to Greenville's growth from a small town to a city during the late 1800s and early 1900s. After deterioration, it was restored in 1982 and used by the Chamber of Commerce, with the city as owner.","period_of_significance":"1901-1902","architect_builder":"Barber & Klutz, Knoxville, TN (architect); C.
