It keeps distinctive enclosed cure porches on both the first and second stories. It was later adapted for commercial use as a cure cottage with relatively few alterations, and it retains exceptional integrity.","narrative":"This two and one-half story house at 33 Olive Street in Saranac Lake was built around 1910 by Orin Savage, a carpenter who lived there by 1915 and possibly designed it too. It sits on a rubble stone foundation under a hipped roof of pressed tin shingles, with clapboard on the first floor and narrow shingle above. Colonial Revival detailing appears in the Doric porch columns and simple window surrounds. A wraparound veranda has been partly enclosed with sliding glass panels to form a cure porch, and a second-story sleeping porch sits over the entrance. These features link the house to the treatment of tuberculosis in Saranac Lake, where patients rested outdoors. A 1917 health survey indicates tuberculosis in the household or among a later tenant, and in the 1930s the building operated as a commercial cure cottage called Twilight Rest Cottage. It is valued as an intact, representative cure cottage with few alterations.","period_of_significance":"c.1910-c.1930","architect_builder":"Orin Savage (builder)","architectural_style":"Late 19th & 20th Century Revivals: Colonial Revival","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Listed as a single dwelling in both historic and current function; the form describes the building as retaining an exceptionally high degree of integrity.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:46.163709-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/92001422.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/92001422/38a473f784-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/92001422/38a473f784-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Mwanner","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Orin_Savage_Cottage,_Saranac_Lake,_NY.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Mwanner</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:Orin_Savage_Cottage,_Saranac_Lake,_NY.jpg"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"93001451","name":"New York Central Railroad Adirondack Division Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/new-york/new-york-central-railroad-adirondack-division-historic-district-93001451/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75313007","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orin_Savage_Cottage","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7102694"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/franklin-county/savage-orin-cottage-92001422/"}
