This report contains the Architectural Data Section of the Historic Structures Report for the Edmund Smith House in Yorktown, Virginia. The proposed project was to restore the exterior of the structure to the revolutionary period. A change in character to the structure occurred when it was extensively restored and changed in 1921 by Captain George P. Blow, and it is recommended that elements that are not in keeping with the revolutionary period should be removed. The structure would continue to be used as a residence for park personnel. This report includes the cost estimate, description, existing conditions, and recommendations for restoration. Each of these sections is further divided by feature or part of the structure. Photographs and measured drawings are included, primarily focused on the structure's exterior.
