Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 29., The Cradock house, past and future. (search)
t for it is a building of unusual interest, having had apparently a triple casement window on each side of the front door. I suppose I could not see with the eyes of an architect, but I could see no trace of the triple casement windows, but all of us who love Medford and appreciate its old houses must feel that it would be a certain sacrilege to change the form or construction of the old brick house. It is singular that Mr. Warren, if he contemplates changing the building into a two-family house, has plenty of precedent from the former owners of the house, two of whom, at least, deliberately willed the house as a two-family residence. This was done, however, without remodelling, and with a sacrifice of privacy of family life which the modern generation is unwilling to make. If any society is to take an interest in its future, it must be our own. What shall we do about the preservation of the Peter Tufts house? From Carpentry and building, August, 1884: engraved by its artist.
