Taylor, it is a finely detailed example of Adamesque Federal Revival architecture. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 for its association with the architect.[1] Description and historyThe Rockwell House stands in a residential area northeast of Norfolk's central village, on the southwest side of Laurel Way just east of its junction with Maple Avenue. Its main block is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, oriented facing south, five bays wide, with a slate roof. The main facade's bays are separated by two-story pilasters, which are also found at the corners. A full entablature extends above the pilasters just below the roof line. The main entrance is centered, with a Palladian window above. Its features are in a strongly Adamesque variant of the Federal Revival. It includes a number of Taylor quirks, including a dumbwaiter for hauling firewood. A gambrel-roofed servant wing extends north from the main block.[2] The house was designed by architect Alfredo S.G. Taylor, a New York City architect who spent many summers in Norfolk. This house is one of more than 30 buildings commissioned from Taylor in the town.[3] It is one of the most academically correct of his Norfolk designs, although it exhibits a number of characteristic flourishes, including the use of elliptical arches.[2] See also
