Superintendent's House
1853–1854. 70 W. Beaver St. at S. Green St.
  • (Sheila Talarico)

The brick Gothic Revival cottage on the campus of Glade Run was built to house an early superintendent of the Orphans Home and Farm School. It was the first building on the grounds, and for many years was listed as a staff house. The steeply pitched roof, intersecting gables, and decorated bargeboards in the gable ends highlight the careful construction by local craftsmen. Several additions have today provided office space for Glade Run's Resources and Development and living quarters for a Lutheran deaconess.
