Architectural style.
This is not a stick style, nor gothic revival, nor…. Qwirkle (talk) 02:54, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- If one follows the link to the National Register Information # 85002265 for the Southgate-Lewis House, The National Register of Historic Places specifically states that the Architectural Style is "GOTHIC."

- The "GOTHIC" is in the asset metadata there. Yes, it's sad that that asset has not been digitized. Dicklyon (talk) 03:29, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
@DGAAustin and Qwirkle: I suggest we bring the discussion from User talk:DGAAustin to here. Dicklyon (talk) 03:26, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

@DGAAustin, Qwirkle, and Dicklyon:
As per the suggestion of User:Dicklyon, I have cut and pasted this item.
I will try to organize a picture.

Hello again User:Dicklyon,
I would like to address both you and User:Qwirkle simultaneously -- and all of Wikipedia -- in a new section, but I really do not know how to accomplish such a communication.
I wonder if you might be able to find the time to look at a photograph of a house – in light of the opinion of User:Qwirkle, concerning the categorization of style.
This photograph shows a very simple Stick Style house. It is not a "fancy" version of a Stick Style House. However, it was designed by none other "than acclaimed American architect Frank Furness".
Allow me to quote from the article:
" The house shown here is an especially fine example of Victorian Stick architecture. Designed by architect Frank Furness, the house has "stickwork," or decorative half-timbering, on the exterior walls. Other features include prominent brackets, rafters, and braces. These details are not necessary structurally. They are decorations ... "
(If I knew how to include a photograph of the house here I would do so.)
Here is the Link:
https://www.thoughtco.com/house-style-guide-american-home-4065233
You will have to scroll down quite a ways. It is photograph number 17. It is the simple little two story yellow house. They use it as their **prototypical example** of "Stick Style".
" an especially fine example of Victorian Stick architecture "
More fancy versions of Stick Style (which I presume User:Qwirkle has in mind when he thinks of this style) can be found. Here is one such link:

Thank you,
