Architect and builder are unknown.","why_significant":"The house is considered architecturally significant as a distinctive example of Greek Revival residential design with a late-nineteenth-century overlay of Eastlake ornamentation. Its form and massing reflect vernacular rural building traditions of the 1830s and 1840s. The elaborate 1880s porch and new windows illustrate the common practice of updating older, plainer houses. Two intact late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century outbuildings add to its value.","narrative":"This L-shaped frame house on North Main Street in Canastota was built around 1840 and remodelled in the 1880s. It has a two-story main block, a recessed one-and-one-half-story service wing, a cross-gable roof, clapboard siding, deep cornice returns and a wide entablature, all typical of the Greek Revival style. In the 1880s a verandah with turned posts, a pierced spindle frieze, fan brackets and decorative cut-outs was added across the front, along with new two-over-two windows with miter-arched lintels. The house reflects village adaptations of rural farmhouse forms and the persistence of vernacular building traditions. It closely resembles a house at 233 James Street. The porch shows how older, modest buildings were upgraded with fashionable Victorian ornament. A late-nineteenth-century barn with a louvered cupola and a turn-of-the-century garage or shed also survive and contribute to the property. The builder and early owners are unknown.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1840s; 1880s","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Greek Revival with Eastlake style features","criteria":[],"status_note":"Private residence in excellent condition, on its original site; the form lists no known threats.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:45.579358-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/86001298.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75313462","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_at_313_North_Main_Street","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14706432"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/madison-county/house-at-313-north-main-street-86001298/"}
