Title	John Adams Church House, Georgetown, Colorado
Summary	View of a house in Georgetown, Colorado, built on Rose Street in 1877 by John Adams Church, a speculator in ore processing. It was sold to Professor Albert E. Chase in 1881, who was the master of the Georgetown school until 1895. The building was designed by Colorado architect Robert Roeschlaub in the Gothic Revival style; the front of the house has a large narrow central gable with a four double-hung windows that are tall and narrow. Behind the gable the house's roof slopes to the front and back. There is a bay window and a one-story addition on the left side of the house, and the entrance is in the section that extends to the right of the central gable; it is covered by an elaborate Gothic Revival canopy, and matches one over the door of the addition. Four finials are visible on the apexes of the gables on the house. A picket fence encloses the large yard, and a girl and a boy stand in front of the central gable. Another house can be seen on the left beyond a lattice fence, and other buildings are visible beyond a fence on the right. A board sidewalk runs in front of the building, and a lamp post without its lamp fitting is on the left in the street. Republican Mountain fills the background.
