COLONIAL REVIVAL (circa 1890 – 1930)
Colonial Revival buildings returned to the simplicity and elegance of the original
Georgian architecture, but are recognizable by their much larger scale and freer use of
classical detail.
The Colonial Revival style in Hull is characterized by rectangular shapes (sometimes
with graceful bow windows), hipped or gambrel roofs, symmetrical façades, and, on the
larger buildings, elaborate doorways with columned porches, fanlights, and sidelights.
Very simple vernacular buildings in this style may be recognized by their restrained
details, symmetrical design, and spacious porches.
There is a Colonial Revival home on Andrew Avenue.
