Description du lieu patrimonial
The Crossan Residence is a one-storey Craftsman-style Bungalow located in one of the city's oldest residential neighbourhoods, adjacent to the downtown core. The historic place is confined to the building footprint.
Valeur patrimoniale
Built in 1912, the Crossan Residence is a very good example of a Craftsman Bungalow. The building features many of the hallmarks of this style, including long and low proportions and stained-glass windows. More unusual locally is the decorative shingling in the front gable.
Located within a grouping of superior historic buildings, the Crossan Residence speaks to the development of this area, after the turn of the 20th century, as a middle- to upper-income residential neighbourhood, a comfortable distance away from the busy commercial core and adjacent mixed-use neighbourhoods.
