It was built in 1897 as a trolley generating plant and remodeled into a residence in 1935.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is an intact local example of twentieth-century Colonial and Classical Revival residential architecture. It was redesigned in 1935 to echo the Roman Classical home of the owner's ancestor, Abraham Wagener. It also recalls the twentieth-century development of this part of Yates County.","narrative":"Overlooking the east branch of Keuka Lake in Jerusalem, Yates County, this brick building began in 1897 as a generating plant for the Penn Yan, Keuka Park & Branchport Railroad, an eight-mile trolley line that operated until about 1933. In 1935 H. Allen Wagener, a descendant of Penn Yan founder Abraham Wagener, bought the building and converted it into a seasonal home. He redesigned it to recall the Roman Classical house of his ancestor on Bluff Point. The result is a rectangular, low-gabled house with multi-light casement windows, wood shutters, and a monumental two-story portico with a full pediment and a balcony on the lake side. The entrance on the road side has a fanlight and a small gabled portico. The interior keeps its historic plan, moldings, and wood floors. The house is valued as an intact local example of twentieth-century Classical and Colonial Revival design and as a neighborhood landmark.","period_of_significance":"1935","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Early 20th Century Revivals / Classical Revival","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Listed use is single dwelling, and the form describes it as a seasonal residence that retains a 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 02:51:50.910654-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/94000961.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75315511","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._Allen_Wagener_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5628053"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/yates-county/wagener-h-allen-house-94000961/"}
