[edit]

It is entirely possible that this house - Nicholas Zabriskie House, refnum 83001599, and Seven Chimneys, refnum 71000494, are in fact the same house and that house was mistakenly listed twice, once in 1971 as an individual entry, and once in 1983 as a result of being listed on the Houses of Bergen County Thematic Resources form. Or, the data apparently used to describe the house for the Stone Houses of Bergen County Thematic Resources, http://focus.nps.gov/pdfhost/docs/NRHP/Text/83001599.pdf was incorrectly the Seven Chimneys data and there is another house that is not documented on focus. NRIS and the recent KML files give the same lat/long for both houses. Note that the built date for Nicholas Zabriskie House is 1812, based on a cornerstone, but Seven Chimneys notes that its roof was raised in 1812 and the house was built in 1750. The NPS photos for both houses are clearly the same 25 Chimney Ridge Road house. Seven Chimneys nomination form is http://focus.nps.gov/GetAsset?assetID=45cea62f-0ea0-4c27-bd47-99dc6adce718.

Are there two houses, one with faulty documentation, or is there just one house? Any thoughts? Generic1139 (talk) 03:41, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

TheSeven Chimneys nomination form is http://focus.nps.gov/GetAsset?assetID=45cea62f-0ea0-4c27-bd47-99dc6adce718 and was loading earlier, but it isn't loading at the moment. Generic1139 (talk) 03:52, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Merge this into the Seven Chimneys article and redirect there. It's the same address. In that article, the weird fact of two listings on the NRHP can be described, but it sure looks like the same house. In the photo on this article, I count six chimneys, but there's probably a seventh in the back. Jonathunder (talk) 15:55, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
