Originally  built as a 17th century 2-over-2 with carved ovolo moldings  decorating its massive summer beams. Later, in 1724, the  building was expanded to become a full center chimney.  This early structure featured original shadow molding,  pit-sawn sheathing and leaded casement windows. This building  , slated for demolition, was carefully dismantled and  the original timbers were restored using state-of-the  art epoxy recasting techniques. This building currently  resides by the ocean side on Shelter Island, LI, fully  restored to its original splendor.
