Eden-Talbott House1336 North Delaware Street1871, 1878One of a handful of first-generation (1870s) Victorian houses remaining on Delaware Street, this house was built in two sections. The sections reflect the change in styles in the nineteenth century. The Italianate west portion has round arched windows and curvilinear brackets. The main facade, although symmetrical, has a wall dormer which almost appears to function as a pavilion with the entrance giving it more of a Second Empire look. The house is more of a hybrid sharing Italianate and Second Empire features. The bow window porte-cochere and art glass belong to a later remodeling.The original west section of the house was built by Aaron Kauffman, a real estate dealer; the east section was built by Charlton Eden, owner of a planing mill further south on Delaware Street. During the 1890s, the Rev. Nathaniel Alden Hyde, an eminent Congregational pastor, resided in the home. About 1903, Henry Morrison Talbott, partner in Dickson and Talbott, the principal theatrical management firm in the late Victorian period, took up residence there, staying until his death in the late 1920s.Old Northside Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1979
