Evaluate the characteristics
sheet
of this building in terms of other buildings
10 Hathorne Street is a somewhat altered variation on the sidehall Italianate house type
constructed in several sections of Salem during the 1870s and 1880s. This house type was less
common in the Mclntire district, where most construction occurred earlier in the nineteenth
century. Set close to the street with a driveway along the north side, it is a two-and-one-halfstory house on an L plan with a rear ell. The front wing of the house is one bay wide by two
bays deep; the side wing extends one bay to the north. It has a cross-gable roof pierced by a
chimney near the roof ridge, and another at the rear.
The entry, located on the north elevation, consists of modern door with a pedimented cap.
Windows have 1/1 sash. Other features include a cornice with paired brackets, deep eaves
and cornice returns, and a hip-roofed porch along the north elevation with chamfered posts
and a wooden railing. A one-story, hip-roofed small bay exists at the south elevation, and the
rear has a small one-bay addition. The foundation is granite at the front and brick at the sides.
A two-bay garage, clad in clapboard, and having an asphalt-shingled, front-gable roof,
stands at the northwest corner of the lot.
HISTORICAL NARRATIVE

sheet
Discuss the history of the building. Explain its associations with local (or state) history.
of the building, and the role(s) the owners/occupants played within the community.
Include uses
Probably built by Benjamin W. Sluman c. 1887-1889,10 Hathorne stands on land that was the
undeveloped back portion of a parcel at 31 Broad owned by Charles M . Richardson. The address
(originally 2 Hathorne) first appeared in the 1889 directory as the residence of Benjamin W. Sluman, a
clerk at Salem Gas Light Company. The Slumans owned and occupied the house until at least 1925,
when it was the residence of Mrs. B. W. Sluman. C. J. Thayer, a plumber, who had lived across the
street at 9 Hathorne during the 1910s and 1920s, was living at number 10 by 1929, and remained there
as late as 1950. The house remains a single-family residence.
The building footprint and its relationship to the south lot line of 10 Hathorne changed between the
1911 and 1981 maps. The 1897 and 1911 footprints show a building with a cross-shape, while the 1981
footprint shows the building as it is today with only one wing in the center of the north elevation.
There is no wing on the south elevation, and the lot line is flush with the south side of the house. It is
possible that the owners of 10 Hathorne conveyed a slice of their land to their neighbors at number
14, whose house was once on its north lot line and is now set back.
