Description: |
440 N. East St., Harlan-Hoffman House, Indianapolis, c. 1977, east and north facades Yes Harlan-Hoffman House440 North East Street (also 435 E. Michigan Street) 1871-75 Grocer George Harlan built this two-story brick, Italianate house in 1874-1875. The house originally included a small corner porch typical of the style, which was later replaced by an L plan classical verandah. In the course of the extensive 1977 renovation, the verandah was removed and the entablature was restored. The large two-story rear addition on the north facade was constructed around 1910 by photographer Frederick Hoffman. Features of this house, which now serves as law offices, include a large entablature with an elaborate paneled frieze, round-arch windows with sculpted springstones and keystones, a two-story bay on the north facade, and a truncated hip roof. The major feature of the 1910 addition is the large area of glass which allowed natural light into the photography studio. The exterior was restored in 1977 when the house became the Lockerbie Gallery. Lockerbie Square Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1987 single-family dwelling |
