Buffum-Redwood House (ca. 1700) (Newport, Rhode Island)

USA / Rhode Island / Newport / Newport, Rhode Island / Spring Street, 74
 house, place with historical importance, 1700s construction (1700 - 1709)
The Buffum-Redwood House, c.1700 and 1750, was built on the present site and now stands as a two-story, five-bay building with a center chimney. It was originally constructed as a two-story, end-chimney house on the early Rhode Island one-room plan (also called the hall/chamber plan). In 1975, the Redevelopment Agency of Newport named the Newport Restoration Foundation (NRF) as the preferred developer of this property, along with the abutting property at 72 Spring Street. After purchasing the property in the same year, NRF restored the building in 1976-77. (cont.- www.newportrestoration.org/preservation/historic_houses...
