Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Roman Kaczmarek House, 2 North Parade Avenue at Northampton Street, Buffalo, New York, June 2021. The house was built in 1921, an era when it was typical to hybridize the Craftsman and Dutch Colonial Revival styles of architecture (the calling card of these so-called "Craftsman Dutch" homes is a gambrel roof with a small lunette window atop the gable and widely projecting eaves, all prominently seen here). What makes the Kaczmarek House unusual is that the roof is cross-gabled rather than front-gabled. The main entrance to the house is on the Northampton Street side, under a portico of paired Doric arched topped by a widely overhanging hip roof, while the ostensible "front" of the house, facing North Parade Avenue, is occupied by an enclosed sunroof with a second-floor balcony above. Longtime owner Roman Kaczmarek (1884-1947) was a Polish-born butcher and sausage maker whose shop was located for many years in the Broadway Market. He lived in the house with his wife Gladys until just a few years before his death.
