Foster-Redington House

The Foster-Redington House is a historic house at 8 Park Place in Waterville, Maine. Built in 1883, it is a fine example of Queen Anne architecture, supposedly the city's first example of the style. It was built by Moses Coburn Foster, a well-known builder in the state, as his private residence. Moses owned M.C. Foster & Son, general contractors and builders. An advertisement for the business lists its location as 7 Park Place, which was the home built for his son, Herbert Foster. Herbert died at 38 years old. Herbert's home is as unique as Moses' but has not been restored, but instead, turned into two apartments. Moses was born in Newry in 1827. His father, Benjamin Foster, was a Methodist minister for fifty years. His mother was Lovisa Coburn of Tyngsboro, Massachusetts. Moses married in 1849 Francina Smith of Bethel, Maine. Foster built the Grand Trunk Railroad at Island Pond; the Calvary Baptist Church in Washington, D.C.; the addition of the Maine State House; post-offices at Houlton, Skowhegan, and Bangor; the East Maine Insane Asylum and Maine Central Station at Brunswick; and many churches (Bethel, Andover, Rumford and Houlton). (American Series of Popular Biographies, pages 274–276). 8 Park Place became the home to Carrie Foster Redington, daughter of Moses and teacher before her marriage at the Mill Street Primary School (according to the 1887 Waterville Directory), and her husband, Frank Redington, a businessman, city mayor and civic leader. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014 after nomination by its current owner, Nancy J. Williams, a native of Savannah, Georgia. Nancy purchased the house July 2, 2012 while still working as the executive director of Lake George Land Conservancy in Bolton Landing, NY. She moved to the house from Queensbury, NY, around January 2016. Major projects completed by Nancy included shingling the roof, removal of knob and tube wiring, replacement with modern wiring, restoration of the front porch's steps and upper spindles, restoration of the master bedroom's ceiling, and restoration of rooms to their original condition of between 1883 and 1910. Bruce and Amy Bernard, the previous owners, had replaced rotting shingles on the lower level with accurate copies, rebuilt a rear chimney and remodeled the kitchen and bathrooms.
