The Sprague House is a historic house located at 412 South Albany Street in Ithaca, Tompkins County, New York.

History

The house was built in 1871 by Charles Titus. After channelling the Six Mile Creek, Titus became a real estate developer for the now buildable land located immediately south of Downtown Ithaca. Titus soon sold the house to his in-laws, Joseph and Louisa Sprague. [1] [2]

Description

The house is located at 412 South Albany Street in the Henry St. John Historic District, not far from Downtown Ithaca.

The building, occupying a corner lot, features a Second Empire style, which was popular in the United States when the house was built. With two main levels and a Mansard roof, the building has a complex floor plan. An ornate corner turret, adorned with a wrought iron crest, distinguishes the facades facing south and east. [1]
