OFFICE BUILDING ARCHITECTURAL DESCRIPTION<br \/>\nThe Young Building is the only example of the Jacobean Revival style in Charlottesville. The basic form of the<br \/>\nbuilding is that of a 2-storey, 5-bay, single-pile structure with a rear addition of nearly equal size. The high<br \/>\nfoundation is covered with concrete up to the water table. The walls are veneered with brick laid in stretcher bond.<br \/>\nThere are comer quoins of rusticated brick and a projecting string-course. The main block of the building has a<br \/>\nmedium-pitched gabled roof, covered with composition shingles, with deeply projecting eaves and decoratively<br \/>\nshaped rafter ends. The great Jacobean gables at the ends of the main block and over the central bay of the facade<br \/>\nare topped with metal finials. The central gable also has metal scroll cresting. A circular attic window in each gable<br \/>\nhas been closed. There are two small interior chimneys. Widows are double-sash, 4-over-1 light, jack-arched at<br \/>\nthe first-storey level and segmental-headed at the second. Basement windows are very short 3-light hinged sash.<br \/>\nThere is no indication, either architecturally or on the Sanbom maps, that the building ever had any sort of entrance<br \/>\nporch, although there was undoubtedly something more formal than the present concrete steps that lead directly up<br \/>\nto the central entrance. The door is flanked by narrow 9-light casement windows, and all have transoms set under<br \/>\na single segmental arch. Above the entrance, the central bay of the facade projects slightly and is crowned by a<br \/>\nJacobean gable. This wide bay has two windows with a decorative brick diamond with a &#8220;Y&#8221; between them. The<br \/>\nhipped-roofed addition covering most of the rear elevation appears to be original and matches the main block in<br \/>\nall details, lacking only the Jacobean gables.&#8211;SURVEY OF 18 NATIONAL REGISTER PROPERTIES<br \/>\nAND PROPOSAL FOR LOCAL DESIGNATION Charlottesville Virginia July 1993<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>J.S.YOUNG &#038; CO.
