Birge House (also known as the Circle House)<br /> <br /> The Georgian Revival style mansion was built in 1896-1897 for George K. Birge. It was designed by the prestigious architectural firm of Little and Browne of Boston, Massachusetts.<br /> <br /> The house was modeled on the lines of a villa Birge had seen on the Riviera. Two pavilions, cornered with stone quoins and housing Palladian and tri-part windows, flank a center section which incorporates three arched windows supported and separated by two tiers of Tuscan columns, and fronted by faux balustrades at the second floor.<br /> <br /> The building's first nonresidential use was as the Sisters of Divine Child Convent from 1938 through 1957, followed by a nearly 20-year stint as an Elks Club. It fell into serious disrepair in the midd-1970s, becoming a flop house and a party site for drunks and junkies and the scene of several small fires.
