It sits on a roughly one-acre triangular lot at Thad Chapin and Bristol Streets. The architect and builder are unknown.","why_significant":"The house is presented as a representative example of Federal style residential architecture in Canandaigua, even though it was built about a decade later than most of the city's Federal buildings. Its Italianate bracketed cornice and front porch show how older houses were modernized during the 1860s and 1870s. It also reflects the development of estates on the edge of town by wealthy citizens.","narrative":"Built around 1844 on a knoll overlooking Canandaigua, this two-story brick house at 274 Bristol Street has five bays, a center hall and a gable roof on a slightly raised basement. Its form, construction and delicate entrance trim, with slender pilasters, half-sidelights and a transom, give it a Federal appearance. Shouldered window trim on the first floor shows Greek Revival influence. A deep bracketed cornice with dentils and an elaborate Italianate porch across the east front were added later, probably in the Civil War period. Inside, an open-string stair with an ornate newel post, four wooden mantels, six-panel doors and random-width floors survive. A modern frame addition and a modern barn do not contribute to the property's character. The house was listed as a representative Federal style residence built later than most in the city. Its Italianate updates reflect the city's prosperity in the 1860s and 1870s, and it recalls the estates wealthy residents built on the outskirts of town.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Unknown","architectural_style":"Federal, with Greek Revival influence and later Italianate additions","criteria":[],"status_note":"Used as a residence, both originally and at the time of the form; condition rated fair.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:41.715089-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/84002869.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84002869/7bd16e6fd6-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/84002869/7bd16e6fd6-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Lvklock","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Canandaigua_017_Marshall_House.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Lvklock</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:Canandaigua_017_Marshall_House.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75314089","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marshall_House_(Canandaigua,_New_York)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6773625"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ontario-county/marshall-house-84002869/"}
