It is unusual for being built of brick rather than the traditional rubblestone, and for combining brick and timber framing. It is recognized as the community's oldest structure and keeps a high degree of integrity, including Greek Revival alterations from about 1830.","narrative":"Built around 1760 in the village of Wallkill, Ulster County, this one-and-one-half story dwelling combines brick walls on its front and south sides with timber framing, brick nogging and clapboards on the west and north. A gambrel roof and end-wall chimneys top the rectangular form, and the front brick is laid in Flemish bond. About 1830 the house received a Greek Revival entrance with sidelights, along with much of its interior woodwork, including doors, mantels and the staircase. The center-hall plan, plaster-on-lath walls, wide plank floors and exposed attic framing survive. The house was listed for its architecture. It is described as a rare regional example of transitional Dutch and English design from the mid-eighteenth century, notable for brick construction at a time when rubblestone was more usual. It is regarded as the community's oldest structure and an important local landmark, set on a lot with lawns and mature trees.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1760 - ca. 1830","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Colonial","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Remains a single-family dwelling; described as largely unchanged since about 1760 and its early nineteenth century renovation, with a non-contributing ca. 1890 frame shed.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:50.37401-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/98001011.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/98001011/52f443f09b-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/98001011/52f443f09b-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Andries_DuBois_House,_Wallkill,_NY_2012.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</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:Andries_DuBois_House,_Wallkill,_NY_2012.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322596","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andries_DuBois_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4759312"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ulster-county/dubois-andries-house-98001011/"}
