Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Mary Rumsey Movius House, 255 Nottingham Terrace, Buffalo, New York, November 2022. A 1914 work of architect George Cary, this elegant home in the city's NRHP-listed Parkside West Historic District boasts an elegant Italian Renaissance aesthetic that has much in common with his roughly contemporaneous design for the Crouch-Waite Mansion in nearby Amherst: a pastel-colored stucco exterior, hipped roof (albeit of shingles rather than Spanish tile), and profusion of round-arched windows. Note also the pediment that hangs above the recessed front entrance, supported by ancone brackets. The house was built for Mary Lovering Movius née Rumsey (1851-1948), the independently wealthy daughter of one of Buffalo's most prominent families whose ex-husband, attorney Edward Hallam Movius (1848-1917), was notable in his own right as the former partner of Ansley Wilcox who moved to New Jersey after his divorce and accepted a position as general counsel for the New Jersey Central Railroad. Mrs. Movius kept her primary residence in the house until her death, which took place at her winter quarters in Pasadena, California.
