Description

This house located at 204 Thomas Street, was built c. 1875 for Scottish carpenter Alexander Falconer (alternatively spelled Faulkner). Falconer lived in the house with his mother Margaret and several of his brothers. Members of the Falconer family lived in the home until 1937. The house is still standing today. The large, smooth stone lintels above the windows are commonly seen on houses constructed at an early date. Note the finished quoins along the sides of the house and the return eaves on the end gables. There is a half-round window in the central gable with brick detailing above. The house also features a covered porch which was added at a later date.

In the winter and early spring of 1982-1983, Randall Speller, a colleague of Larry Pfaff from the Art Gallery of Ontario, took a series of black and white photographs of houses of architectural significance in St. Marys. Larry Pfaff and several local friends who shared this interest in architecture took some additional photographs in a subsequent summer. This photograph is one of this series.
