English: The dental offices of Dr. Thomas J. Keohane, 487 Niagara Street, Buffalo, New York, August 2021. Built in 1883, this is a good example of Queen Anne residential architecture as it was practiced toward the beginning of the style's period of popularity: by comparison with later designs, these buildings were more often made of brick, with correspondingly heavier massing, and the corner turrets which became almost de rigueur in later iterations are often absent entirely, as is the case here. Note also the keystone-studded segmental arches that top the entrance and the triple window on the ground floor (a flair reminiscent of the Second Empire style), the decorative masonry work that adorns the second floor (another hallmark of early Queen Anne architecture), and the interesting juxtaposition of a projecting dormer piercing the steeply-pitched hip roof in front (with decorative bargeboards and fishscale shingle siding) above a recessed second-floor window flanked with stylized carved pilaster strips. The house was built for Arthur Woods (1833-1904), one of the most prominent dredging contractors on Buffalo Harbor who at the time the house was built was one-half of the partnership of Hingston & Woods, but had accepted the title of vice-president of Lake Erie Dredging by the time of his retirement. Woods lived in the house until his death, and in 1910 his widow Valina sold the place to the newly founded Crippled Children's Guild. With its roots in a tradition shared by charitably-minded members of Buffalo's Gilded Age aristocracy whereby handicapped children were invited for relaxing summer sojourns at their country estates in what are now Buffalo's suburbs, the Guild was soon enough formally constituted by the New York State Department of Social Welfare and the old Woods House divided into living space for fifteen youngsters suffering from a variety of different physical disabilities. During the period when it was located here, the Guild forged productive relationships with the Joint Charities & Community Fund, the Children's Hospital of Buffalo, and the Boy Scouts of America (with whose help it founded the first scout troop in the U.S. for the disabled) as well as playing an instrumental role in innovating new treatments for disabling conditions and special educational services. The Crippled Children's Guild moved into a larger, purpose-built headquarters on Delaware Avenue in 1939. After that, the building served first as a rooming house but was in use as offices by the early 1970s. |
