It also illustrates a neighborhood that grew gradually as large landholdings were subdivided, and it contains the homes of representative Thomasville citizens.","narrative":"Tockwotton-Love Place is a residential district of about 45 acres in Thomasville, Georgia, formed by two neighborhoods linked by Remington Avenue. Tockwotton, to the south, holds the district's largest houses, including the ca. 1852/53 Hansell House, designed by builder John Wind, along with many imposing homes built during the late nineteenth-century winter resort boom. Love Place, subdivided from Peter Love's plantation in 1880 and 1883, filled in with more modest houses of tradesmen and middle-class residents through the 1920s. Most buildings are wood-framed and weatherboarded, in Greek Revival, Victorian Eclectic, Neoclassical and Craftsman/Bungalow styles. Informal front yards, mature shade trees, and live oaks and palms along Remington Avenue give the streets a park-like character. The district was listed for its architecture, landscape, gradual community development over about seventy years, and its association with representative local citizens such as doctors, merchants, a mayor and winter residents.","period_of_significance":"1850s-1920s","architect_builder":"multiple; John Wind is named as designer of the ca. 1852/53 Hansell House","architectural_style":"Greek Revival, Victorian Eclectic, Neoclassical, Craftsman/Bungalow","criteria":["A","B","C"],"status_note":"Occupied, mostly private residences with some religious use; condition rated good and altered.
