191-193 Merrimack Street (House), 191-193 Merrimack Street, Manchester, Hillsborough County, NH
Summary
Significance: Originally built as a single-family house and subsequently enlarged to contain a storefront and four residential apartments (ca. 1890-1910), the Furber House preserves several architectural elements of its original Greek Revival style design as well as later Victorian and early 20th century alterations including an Italianate style entry hood, a basement storefront and a plain rear wing. In its scale, setting and current appearance, the building reflects the growth and development of the City of Manchester and the evolution of the city's central neighborhoods from areas of single-family houses to mixed uses by the early 20th century.
