Summit Hill House Tour #2

"The self-guided house tour has been held every other year for the past 38 years by the Summit Hill Association to promote the neighborhood as a great place to live and to help raise money for the SHA.  This one was designed by Clarence H. Johnston for Oliver T. Crosby, co-founder of American Hoist and Derrick Company, and it was built in 1900 with a Kasota stone exterior, steel beams and masonry walls."

  4. Ah, another Summit Ave beauty! I sure miss being able to walk out our front door headed for a stroll up Summit Ave!
    And yesterday's house was a scrumptious house, too!

  5. Nice but I like yesterdays more. This one is a little too dark for me.

  7. Looks like a wonderfully graceful house. I like the way the masonry work has been done. I don't see anything like that around here.
