Architecture Style: American Four Square with Shinge Influences
Key Features:
The Grubb-McFarland-Cross House was built around 1898. It combines influences of the Shingle Style (a late 19th century style; note the characteristic shingles on the flat walls) with a new type which was just emerging, the American Four Square (square boxy design; popular 1910-1930).
A series of early owners held this house, including Charles and Laura Lott Cross from 1913 to 1931. Mr. Cross was a prominent real estate speculator and is thought to have built several homes in Irvington.
