Located on Chapel Street, in New Haven’s Wooster Square neighborhood, the Willis Bristol House was designed by New Haven architect Henry Austin. Designed with a basic Italianate shape, the house has elaborate detailing in what has been described as either the Moorish Revival style or a style influenced by the Royal Pavilion at Brighton, which was built in the Indo-Saracenic style. Yale has original plans and illustrations of the house and a there is also a HABS record. The house was built for Willis Bristol, of Bristol & Hall, boot and shoe manufacturers.

The house seems eminently suited to provide a housing for my only grandson. It has a history and so does Basie Bales Gitlin. Basie has lots of knowledge about historical matters so should appreciate and enjoy living in such a house.My only grandson should have such a house to live in.
