It closely resembles designs in Marcus F. Cummings's 1865 pattern book, Architecture. It is one of only three substantial residences in the city that retain the design features made popular by Cummings.","narrative":"Built around 1865 at 133 Warren Street in Glens Falls, this two and one-half story brick house was constructed by local contractor Hiram Krum as his own residence. It has a slate mansard roof, a three-bay street facade with a side entrance hall, and tall segmental-arched windows with two-over-two sash. Italianate details include bracketed porches, cast-iron sills and lintels, paired eave brackets over a modillion cornice, and a bay window. The house was subdivided into multiple apartments in the 1940s, yet it keeps a double-door entrance vestibule and a mahogany staircase with turned balusters. It was listed because it resembles designs published by regional architect Marcus F. Cummings in his 1865 pattern book. Krum is known to have built many homes and commercial buildings from Cummings's designs. The house is one of only three substantial residences in the city that retain the distinctive features associated with Cummings.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Pattern book source: Marcus F.
