The HillāLassonde House was a historic house at 269 Hanover Street in Manchester, New Hampshire, United States. Built in 1850, it was a well-preserved example of Italianate styling. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985, [1] at which time it was still owned by Hill's descendants. [2] The house and carriage house were demolished in July 2016. [3]
The HillāLassonde House was located east of downtown Manchester, on the south side of Hanover Street opposite Bronstein Park. It was a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof and Italianate styling. The roof eave was deep and studded with brackets. The main facade was three bays wide, with a center entrance sheltered by a portico supported by fluted square columns and pilasters, with brackets also found in its roof eave. A series of ells extended to the rear, and the property included a period carriage house with cupola. The interior had high-quality period woodwork, with some alterations dating to the early 20th century. [2]
The house was built in 1850 for Alpheus Dwight Burgess, a machinist, on land he had purchased in 1847. The house was typical of houses built during this period, which was a boom time in the city, producing a large number of houses of this type. Burgess sold the house in 1855 to Varnum Hill, in whose family it remained at least into the 1980s. Ownership by a single family contributed to its state of preservation relative to similar houses nearby, which were often demolished or extensively altered. [2] This house was demolished in 2016. [3]
