On the basis of lithograph of this church, he won the commission to design Trinity Church in New York City (1846). Trinity Church inspired the revival of Gothic forms in ecclesiastical design in the United States and Upjohn was its foremost practitioner. Architectural writer Robert T. Present bas called him "me of the fuses church architects of all time." In addition to his built designs, Upjohn wmte Upjohn's RuruJArchirecmre (1852), a pattern book which influenced the construction of many more Gothic Revival churches in the country. His use of the Gothic Revival in church design also influenced the prolifemtim of Gothic Revival houses throughout the United Stares. David Howard built this house in the early nineteenth century xnd Joshua W. Cart purchased it in DWl. Carr quicklyremodelal it into a Goddc Revival, the fashimadde style of the day, popularized locally by the building of St. John's Episcopal Church and nationally, to ardi tectural partner books by writers such as Alexander Jackson Davis and Andrew Jackson Downing. Carr opemlM aMaury on the site, selling and: fruit stock, ornamental iras and shrubs, and fruit Lees. Atone time his property' included ahem and stable. putting Carr squarely in the mode of gen feman farmer and upholding the mind ideal put forward by writers such as Davis and Downing In a0, no Gothic Revival houses were built in Bang in the 1940s and 1850s. The ambient were built about adecade after St. John's Episcopal was constructed; the builders of the earliest oftheas houses either had some cemection with the building of the church or were unportmr[ members of the congregation. Carr's updating of his new Muse made it the thhd Gothic Revival Muse in Bingo, after the Nathan B. Wiggin Muse an French Sheet art the Charles W. Jenkins Houree on Adams Sant. (Both Muses have been moved: the Wiggin House farther north on French Street and the Jenkins House to Pine Sheet) John Godfrey bulk Cliff Cottage on Kenduskeag Avenue, the moat significant Gothic Revival house in Beng", in 1847.3 The Can -Wing House is one offrur Gothic Revival Muses in Bang to retain their architectural integrity. With the exception of the Carr -Wing House, Cliff Cottage, the Wiggin House and the Jenkins Hnuse, the remaining Gothic Revival homes in Hargan have been demolished, severely altered, or fallen into disrepair. CliffCortage bas been well-maintained aral its exterior has been little altered since the mnetemth emtoy, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Wiggin House has tiem skaed somewhat, but it still reads as a Gothic Revival and its exterior has been well-mainamed. The Jenkins Hoare has been nfl sbilitated and is listed on the National Register. However, both Muses have base moved, so they have lost their integrity of location- Ia 1906, Wilson D. Wing a wsalthymining and lumber rn[reprenem, bought the boos¢ Earn Joshua Carr's sur and quicklymsdeseveml alterations and an addition of his own. He built a huge library wing an the west side ofthe heuse, reporting the Gothic Revival feamms of the house, but adding some Quem Arne elements that were currently, in wagon. He used rare woods fiom South America, which he probably came acrosswhile conducting his mppa mining business in Chile, for the library paneling and other interior woodwork. He had the rest of the first story redecorated in Queen Anne and Beaux -Arta 33 090 styles. After Wing dial, his daughters, Caroline and Adeline inherited the house, which they called"La Quints"Neither ofthe Wing sisters, as they were called, ever marred They lived together in the house for almost sixty years and Adeline died in 1966; they were well-known in Bangor for their gracious hospitality and leadership w area cultural institutions, each is the Bangor Cruder CNb and the Shakespeare Club. They were extremely generous art patrons, giving important works of ant ou Smith College (their than mater), Colby College and the University of Maine. They also gave generously to Eastern Maine Genem7 Hospital across the street (now Eastern Maine Medical Center).

After Caroline Wing's death, the sister's heirs sold the house to a medical practice, which occupied the building for several years and constructed amodem addition to the rear of the building, which fortunately cannot be seen from State Sheet. Eastern Maine Medical Center acquired the house in the mid -twentieth century and bas used it fm medical offices and a daycare center. The Cart -Wing House is important because of its Gothic Revival architecture and for its place in Bangor's national history: a rural retreat for Josima Can and his family and the home of the Wing sisters, whose patronage of the arts benefited not only the local area, but Maine and New England. Their philanthropy reveals Burger's important position in the arts and culture of the smm and the lingering effects of the wealth ofBmgor's lumber trade.

It is a fine example ofCmthic Revival architecture and e ofBangur'sfirs, intact remaining buildings of the type. Moreover the Con -Wing House, along with other Gothic Revival houses in Bangor, reveals the impact of architect Richard Upjohn's work in the city. In addition. early twen4ethcentury alterations to the Cart -Wing House reflect the importance ofReagan's position in the lumber trade and the lives of prominent fdawe ah patrons.I The Can -Wing is an exceptional ceample ofrhe Gothic Revival because of the prominarce of its location and its level of deciding. Furthermore, it is one of only four Gothic Revival house in the city that resume its architectural integrity. It is aures -bay, Me story residential building with many feelumm characteristic of the Gothic Revival: steeply -pitched cross -gabled roofs; scroll -sawn vergeboards (commonly called gingerbread) on its some and domras; windows extending into its gables; and a me- smryporch. One of its most handsome feahum is its quahetoil window in the fmot gable. Moreover, it sits on the crani of a bluff of land overlooking the Penobscot River, in kespiog with the picturesque ideal of the Gothic Revival. It is symmetrical in design, owing to the fact that the builthng began its life as aFdpal-style house that was updated to the newly -popular Gothic Revival in 1844 after it was purchased by a new owner. Ifaliatime nimbus, aQueea Anne library wing, and a madern addition to the rem of the house were added later. no Can -Wing House remaim a good example of Gothic Revival architecture in spite of these later changes and the fact that the exterior of the building has been compromised by the enclosure of the western half of the porch an its State Strat fagade. The Gothic Revival is a particularly important style of domestic archisomme in Scatter because. of the city's aasociatiou with Richard Upjohn- Upjohn is considered one of the most important early designers and promotes of the Gothic Revival in the United States. His earliest work in the Gothic Revival was produced in Bangor (St John's Episcopal Church on Freach Suttl, built 1835-36, burned 1911), leading to his career as one of the earliest and most aspected professional architects in America Richard Upjohn designed 33 090 HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION AGENDA Thursday, January 10, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. Third Floor Council Chambers Public Hearinas 1. 202Exchanae Street— Oliver Holding To consider a request for Certificate of Appropriateness and Design Review approval to amend previous proposal for brick facade to new wood fayade for first Floor. 2, 20Sete StreM—D V 's LLC To conaker a request for Certificate or Appropriateness and Design Review approval to install a wall sign, window sign and door lettering. 3. 4125tate She at - Sam K Mart' bah ffgf thea Histo' Pred Commies on on To considerthe application to designate 412 State Street (Care -Wing House) as a histone landmark 4. 424 State Street—Sam K Martin on bah If ofth B Historic Preservation Comms on To consider the application to designate 424 State Street (Shumway-Robinson House) as a historic IarMmark The next scheduled meeting is Thursday, February 14, 2008 at 7:00 p.m. in the third floor Council Chambers. ur3 GNo PUBLIC NOTICE A hearing by the Historic Preservation Commission of the City of Bangor, Maine, will be held in the third Floor Council Chambers, City Hell, on Thursday, January 10, 2008, at 7:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, on the application of Sara K.
