Gibson House, Greek Revival residence in Jamestown, United States.
The Gibson House is a two-story brick building at 210 Liberty Street in Jamestown, Pennsylvania, with a hipped roof and central cupola. The exterior displays features of both Greek Revival and Renaissance Revival styles blended together in its design.
The building was constructed in 1855 and combines elements from Greek Revival and Renaissance Revival design traditions. It received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in December 1978.
The residence shows how wealthy families in the mid-1800s mixed different classical design approaches in their homes. These kinds of houses reveal how people in that era used architecture to display their social standing.
The interior is not open to visitors, but you can see the exterior architectural details and photograph the building from Liberty Street. Taking a walk around the property gives you different angles to appreciate the facade and its design features.
The property includes an original carriage house and sits on about half an acre in the center of Jamestown. These outbuildings and generous grounds reflect how wealthy families of that era designed their estates with substantial outdoor spaces.
