Downing-Engel-Tzucanow House, ca. 1886

Built by John Baumgartner for Major Columbus Downing, this brick Queen Anne structure took two years to build. The porch, featuring Corinthian columns, was a later addition. The original porch, a delicate Exotic Revival design, was removed, but a section remains over the porte-cochere. As the years brought dramatically changes in tastes and styles, homeowners frequently opted for the relatively inexpensive remodeling technique of the porch replacement. Brunswick Manor Bed & Breakfast now occupies this house and several surrounding outbuildings.
