Wilkinson-Hawkinson House

The Wilkinson-Hawkinson House, at 39 Sampson Ave. in Park City, Utah, was built probably sometime between 1895 and 1910. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.It is a one-story frame house, somewhat of the pyramid house type but somewhat also a bungalow.It was deemed "architecturally significant as one of only three well preserved examples of houses that are exceptions to the standard house types that were constructed during Park City's mining boom period. The majority of Park City houses were built as hall and parlor houses, T/L cottages, pyramid houses or variants of the pyramid house. Shotgun houses and bungalows occur in fewer numbers, but were also significant types. About 2Q% of the in-period extant buildings in Park City, including 39 Sampson, did not specifically fit into any one category or were altered so dramatically that the original type was not identifiable. Of those only three well preserved examples remain, all of which are included in this nomination. This house can be visually tied with the pyramid house and the bungalow. It has the square plan, the drop siding, and the indented porch of the pyramid house, but has the horizontal three part windows and simplified boxy form of the bungalow. In addition, it has a skewed gable roof which was not characteristic of either the pyramid house or the bungalow. This house is unlike any other house in Park City, and documents the fact that although standard house types were the rule in Park City, exceptions to the standard types were also built."In 1898 Frank and Rosetta Hawkinson bought a house, probably this one, described as "'a 3 room frame house on Block 78 between the house of Alfred Lindorf on the West, J. Peterson on the East, and Philip Tobin on the South.'" Neighbors recall them living in this house for as long as they could remember. Frank, born in Sweden in 1869, immigrated to the U.S. as a boy with his parents, and worked 35 years for the Park Utah Mining Company. He died of a heart attack when repairing the roof of this house in 1939. Rosetta was born in Switzerland in 1877, and came to Midway, Utah with her parents at age 9. They had two children.

Nicholas Rowe House
Nicholas Rowe House

The Nicholas Rowe House, at 150 Main St. in Park City, Utah, was built around 1885. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. It was built as a hall and parlor plan house but later (probably between 1907 and 1910) was converted to a two-story commercial building, with the second floor projecting forward, supported by front porch pillars. In 1984 it was deemed:significant as one of three extant buildings in Park City which document the method of expanding a small mining town cottage by adding a full second story to an existing hall and parlor house. The addition of a shed extension to the rear of a house or a cross-wing to one end of a hall and parlor house were the preferred methods of expanding Park City's tiny houses. Because there are only three extant examples of houses that were expanded by the addition of a second story, it is likely that this type of expansion may have been more difficult to do, and therefore was less popular. All three houses were originally one story residences. Two of the three houses were changed to two story residences with gable roofs typical of hall and parlor houses. The flat roof of the addition on this house gives it the appearance of a commercial building. This is the only extant example in Park City of a building that was converted from a residence to a commercial building. Its first known owner was Nicholas Rowe, who with his wife Carrie sold the house in 1909. Nicholas (Nick) Rowe was born in 1850 in England in 1850 and immigrated in 1869. In Park City, he worked as a miner. Carrie Rowe, born in England c.1866, immigrated in 1887. They married less than a year later.
