Evaluate the characteristics of this building in terms of other buildings within the community. The Maloney House began as a Shingle Style house, but with the application of vinyl siding, its fundamental stylistic character has been lost. It is a two-and-a-half story house under a side gable, slate roof that extends on the west to create a porch in bungalow fashion. The house is three bays wide and four bays deep. The porch, enclosed on north and south sides has half-length columns resting on a solid railing. In the end gables of the house there are jetties between both the attic/second story and second/first stories. There is a large front-gable dormer centered on the west roof and a small pediment marks the location of the stairs on to the porch. The house has a two-story, shed-roofed porch on the south elevation that is open at the first floor level and enclosed at the second story. It is supported on columns and set beneath the attic jetty. HISTORICAL NARRATIVE Discuss the history of the building. Explain its associations with local (or state) history. Include uses of the building, and the role(s) the owners/occupants played within the community. From the Form B of 1976, “The shingle style residence was built in 1896 for J. H. Maloney and designed by Putnam and Bayley, local architects. The first shingle style residence in Northampton was designed by Putnam and Bayley in 1893 for Judge Hammond; this was a full decade after the early shingle projects of H. H. Richardson and McKim, Mead, and White. It relates to other, earlier Queen Anne residences on Munroe and Columbus Streets as well as to Putnam’s own Shingle style residence on Columbus Avenue.” BIBLIOGRAPHY and/or REFERENCES Beers, F. W.
