John Tucker Daland House

The Italianate-style building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was built to house the Salem Athenaeum, a private library.

The three-story brick house was originally built for John Tucker Daland, a prosperous merchant.

It was then remodeled as offices by architect William Devereux Dennis (1847–1913) and in 1907 connected to the adjacent Plummer Hall (former home to the Salem Athenaeum).

Features of interest include rusticated corner quoins and foundation, fine cornices, both arched and flat-entablatured windows, and an imposing front porch supported by Corinthian columns and topped with a Palladian window.

At one time the house also featured roof and porch balustrades, as well as panelled brick chimneys.
