William Dorsheimer House
William Dorsheimer House, Historic house on Delaware Avenue, Buffalo, United States.
The William Dorsheimer House features a brick structure with gray sandstone bands, large dormers, and a mansard roof made of slate materials.
Henry Hobson Richardson designed this residence in 1868 for William Dorsheimer, who later served as Lieutenant Governor of New York and U.S. Congressman.
The house represents French architectural influences of the post-Civil War period through its incised decorations of rosettes, triglyphs, and horizontal stone bands.
The interior of the building has been modified for commercial purposes, while maintaining the original open-well stairway connecting all three floors.
This residence marked Richardson's first architectural project in Buffalo, leading to additional commissions including the Buffalo State Hospital and New York State Capitol.
