Lampman, with a matching carriage house on a 2.6 acre parcel.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is an outstanding local example of Second Empire residential architecture in Catskill. It displays cubic massing, a projecting central entrance pavilion, segmental arched windows, veranda-like porches and a mansard roof. The surviving matching carriage house and the property's high integrity add to its importance.","narrative":"Built around 1891 by lumber dealer, contractor and builder William E. Lampman, this three-story brick house at 147 Grandview Avenue sits in the part of Catskill historically known as West Catskill, on the west side of Catskill Creek. It is an L-shaped Second Empire residence on a stone foundation, topped by a slate mansard roof with round-arched dormers, bracketed cornices and cast iron window sills and lintels. A symmetrical three-bay front facade centers on a projecting entrance bay, and a single-story porch wraps the front and west sides. Inside, a center hall plan survives with decorative moldings and marble mantels, even though the house was divided into apartments in the 1940s. A matching mansard-roofed carriage house stands behind it. The nomination presents the property as one of the village's finest examples of Second Empire architecture and a prominent residential landmark that remains substantially intact.","period_of_significance":"ca.1891","architect_builder":"William E.
