Sciple, with a historic garage-apartment outbuilding and a modern dining-hall addition.","why_significant":"The house is significant in architecture as an unusual eclectic design with no identified architect, mixing Craftsman, Tudor and Flemish elements on Atlanta's main street. It is significant in local history as the home of Charles E. Sciple, a leading building-supply dealer and a founder of the Builders' Exchange, and his wife Katherine Murphy Sciple, a social leader and a founder of the Peachtree Garden Club.","narrative":"Built in 1906-07 at 1112 Peachtree Street, this two-story brick house in Atlanta blends several design influences. Craftsman details appear in the wooden front porch, eaves and entry hall, Tudor Revival character shows in the arches of the porte cochere, and the north and south end gables have a Flemish shape. No architect has been identified. Charles E. Sciple, who ran the city's leading building-supply firm, had access to a variety of materials and design trends, which helps explain the house's unusual mix and its modern look for Peachtree Street in 1907. Sciple, an Alabama native who took over the family business in 1885, helped found the Builders' Exchange. His wife, Katherine Murphy Sciple, a daughter of philanthropist Anthony Murphy, helped found the Peachtree Garden Club. The family lived here until 1927. The property later became the Women's Commerce Club, gaining a modern dining hall and interior changes, though a historic garage-apartment remains.","period_of_significance":"1906-07","architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Eclectic, with Craftsman, Tudor Revival and Flemish influences","criteria":["B","C"],"status_note":"Occupied and in commercial use as the Women's Commerce Club; the form notes a modern dining-hall addition, converted interior rooms, and loss of the rear garden.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:55:42.904862-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_GA/84001084.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/93208330","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":null},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/georgia/fulton-county/sciple-charles-e-house-84001084/"}
