Oliver Hastings House
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oliver Hastings House is a historic house in the Greek Revival style, located at 101 Brattle Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is a National Historic Landmark.
The house was constructed in 1844 for local builder Oliver Hastings adjacent to poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's house (now the Longfellow National Historic Site). It was later occupied by Bishop William Lawrence of the Episcopal Theological School, and now forms part of the Episcopal Divinity School campus.
The house consists of two main, dwelling stories topped by a much smaller, inconspicuous third floor. It is notable mainly for its front facade, with its central, rounded portico set off by a single, full-height window at either side. Iron grillwork forms accents to the second floor exterior.
