A French Second Empire-style house, built for Henry P. Strong around 1883, can be found at 33 Court Street in New Britain. Strong, who was in the lumber and coal business, was also president of the Railroad Block Company, of which his neighbor, Frederick G. Platt, was secretary-treasurer. The house has been altered by the removal of the original front porch.
