ARCHITECTURAL SIGNIFICANCE (Describe important architectural features and <br /> evaluate in terms of other buildings within the community.) <br /> This house has more complicated massing than most of the Bloomfield <br /> Street houses, with a jutting cross gable and roof carried down over the <br /> entrance porch. Patterned shingles are used extensively on the second level. <br /> The carriage house retains similar staggered-butt shingle finish on the upper <br /> level and clapboards below. The house at 43 Bloomfield Street must have <br /> looked like this one once, but has now lost its original finish and had its <br /> porch enclosed. <br /> HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE (Explain the role owners played in local or state <br /> history and how the building relates to the development of the community.) <br /> This house-was owned-in 1889 by Sampson.
