It retains integrity of location, design, setting, materials and workmanship. It is tied to Stoneham's major historical theme and period, meeting criterion A.","narrative":"This small house at 67 Summer Street in Stoneham was built around 1850 for David Kenney, who listed his occupation as a laborer. It is an asymmetrical, one-room-deep building under a pitched roof with a center chimney, sheathed in clapboards with simple cornerboards and fascia. Windows have simple frames with two-over-two sash, and the off-center entry is sheltered by a bracketed hood. The scroll-sawn brackets were added later. Modest Greek Revival detailing marks the house as typical of the 1840s and 1850s. It faces west onto Summer Street on a large, hilly lot, in a neighborhood of mid-to-late nineteenth century homes with modern infill. Kenney's ownership appears on maps from 1858, 1874 and 1889. The house was listed because it is a well preserved example of a worker's house, reflecting the housing of Stoneham's shoe-industry era. It retains its original location, design, setting, materials and workmanship, and has no recorded major alterations or outbuildings.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Architect unknown; original owner David Kenney","architectural_style":"No specific style given; modest Greek Revival detailing noted","criteria":["A"],"status_note":"Present use is residential; no major alterations or moves are recorded, though scroll-sawn brackets were added at the entrance at a later date.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:11:56.500755-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/4/7921/63792104/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_MA/84002725.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84002725/b03690fa30-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84002725/b03690fa30-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"User:Magicpiano","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:StonehamMA_DavidKenneyHouse.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">User:Magicpiano</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:StonehamMA_DavidKenneyHouse.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/63792104","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Kenney_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5235942"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/massachusetts/middlesex-county/kenney-david-house-84002725/"}
