Levins D. Gray House
Levins D. Gray House

The Levins D. Gray House, at 355 Ontario Ave. in Park City, Utah, was built in 1902. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.It is a single-story frame house with a truncated hip roof. It was deemed, in its Utah State Historical Society document, to be "architecturally significant as one of only five well preserved examples of a variant of the pyramid house. The pyramid house is one of the three most common house types built during the early period of Park City's mining boom era and was built with a number of variations. This one is characterized by the typical square form and a hip roof, but is distinguished from the basic pyramid house in that instead of having a porch spanning the facade, the porch is set into a recessed section of the facade."The document goes on to say: "Instead of having a porch spanning a symmetrical facade, as was the typical facade arrangement of a pyramid house, the northwest corner was recessed to form a small front porch. The porch spans half of the facade, which consists of a door and a window. It is supported on lathe turned piers which have decorative brackets at the tops, and the balustrade has a geometric design. This type of balustrade was a popular element of the Victorian period, but there are few extant examples of the type in Park City. Because porch elements are the first to deteriorate and be replaced, it is difficult to determine if indeed this type of decoration was common in the area."The house was built for Levins D. and Stella Gray, who bought the property in October, 1901. It was in an area being rebuilt, after a "great fire of 1898." It is not known if they lived there or rented it out, before they sold it in 1909.

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.

House at 555 Deer Valley Road

The House at 555 Deer Valley Road, at 555 Deer Valley Rd. in Park City, Utah, was built in 1895. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.It is a one-story frame pyramid house, one of 28 nominated for National Register listing in 1984. About this one: "Unlike a majority of Park City's pyramid houses which have truncated hip or clipped gable roofs, this house has a true pyramid roof. It is an archetypal example of the pyramid house, one of the simplest, most clearly stated examples of the pyramid house type in Park City. Its square plan, pyramid roof, and symmetrical facade with a hip roof porch spanning the width of it are the principle elements of the type. There is a second door on the west side of the building over which a simple porch was added. There is a rear shed extension attached to the north side which projects past the west side of the building. In Park City houses the projection of a rear shed extension was often made to provide space for a wood or coal shed. In-period rear extensions are part of Park City's architectural vocabulary. Although in many cases an extension represents a major alteration of the original house, it usually contributes to the significance of a house because it documents the most common and acceptable method of expansion of the small Park City house. The windows on the south and east sides of the house are the one over one double hung sash type." In 1984 the house was in good condition and its original integrity had so far been preserved.In 2019, the house appears to have been renovated since 1984 and looks, from the street, to be still in good condition.
