It cites the design collaboration of brothers D.K. and L.V. Boyd before their national careers, the original interior woodwork and stained glass, and the high cost of construction for the period.","narrative":"Set on a prominent corner in Germantown, Philadelphia, the 2-1/2 story stone house at 100 Pelham Road was designed in 1896 by the brothers David Knickerbacker Boyd and Laurence Visscher Boyd for Robert M. Hogue, and built by Jacob Myers and Son at a reported cost of $20,000. Its Jacobethan Revival massing combines cross gables, wall dormers, stone finials and leaded diamond-paned windows, with Indiana limestone and dark Chestnut Hill ashlar. The interior has carved oak woodwork, coffered ceilings, a grand stair hall and a stained glass stair window. A 1901 stone carriage house stands to the south. The house is regarded as one of the finest residential examples in early suburban Philadelphia. It was adapted in about 1963 for the Cambs Music College, and the nomination places the designers' early work before their later national careers in architecture.","period_of_significance":"1896-1901","architect_builder":"D.K. and L.V.
