Description of the property

The King Hooper Mansion is located in the densely developed center of Marblehead. The small lot, which slopes steeply away from the street, is almost entirely covered by the house, although there is a small garden plot to the rear. The Mansion is only a few blocks from the ocean and once an unobstructed view of the ships coming into Marblehead Harbor could be had from the upper stories. The house was built in two distinct periods, the older portion dating from 1727-1728 and the newer part from 1745. The older section, a gambrel roof, clapboard structure is set back from the street by about 20 feet and'is built parpendicular to the street with the original facade facing south. Because of the slope of the land the east gable elevation of this section of the house rises five floors.

The ground floor is'a full basement, the first floor contains a large kitchen; the second and main floor, on the same level as the street, contains the original entrance which was reached by wooden steps on the exterior; and the third and fourth floors, each one room in depth, contain bedrooms. One large center chimney sérves all ten fireplaces in this section of the house. The fenestration on the 1727-28 house has 6/9 sash with plain surrounds. Except for the striking profile of the old house as seen from the south the clapboard structure is quite plain. The interior was extensively remodeled in 1745 when a three-story, five bay by two bay Georgian structure was added to the front of the 1728 house. This alteration gave the house its present I-shaped floor plan, and 20 room mansion status.

The facade of the 1745 addition, flush with the sidewalk, is covered with wood imitation of regular ashlar stone. This wood treatment rounds the corners to the clapboard side elevations in quoins. The shuttered windows on the first and second floor are rather plain with 6/6 sash. The lintels'are flush with the fadade and are marked by short vertical boards the size of bricks, splayed at the edges. The third floor windows are smaller than those on the first two floors; , and have plain lintels: They are located just under the finely detailed cornice, marked by wide dentils with smaller scale dentils on the facia board. .5. The center entrance of the facade is flanked by slender pilasters and surmounted by a plain entablature with a wide architrave. The front door is reached by a low granite step, situated on a brick sidewalk. The house rests on a granite foundation.

The interior of the Mansion looks today much as it did after the altenations and addi- tions of 1745. The center entrance hall of the 1745 house is flanked by parlours, each containing a fireplace in the rear (east) wall. "The hall leads báck to the main floor of the older section of the house. The pine room and the borning room both contain their original 1728 paneling; the dining room or parlor contains more elegant paneling and Delft tiles dating from the 1745 renovation. An interesting feature of the 1745 9 Erom the 1145 renovatn o. house is the baliroom, which occupies the entire third floor. The room is covered by a bell ceiling, broken in the center by a recessed octagonal dome from which hangs the original chandelier. 2290 TENT3 535121

Statement of significance

/ARCHITECT STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The Hooper Mansion and family have been significant in Marblehead town history for well over two hundred years.. Once the home of presperous merchants and ship owners, the Hooper Mansion now serves as a cultural center for the town under the ownership of the Marblehead Arts Association. The Hoopers first appeared in Marblehead records in 1674, and in 1695 a Robert, Houper (sic) is listed as a generous donor to the enlarged Meeting House. In 1727 Greenfield Hooper purchased land to build the original four-story section of the house. Although somewhat simple on the exterior, its size and interior detail attest to his success as a tallow chandler. In 1745 Greenfield Hooper's son, who became a successful shipper and merchant in his own right, built the three-story Georgian addition to his father's house.

The new mansion became one of the centers of social events in Massachusetts, as well as in Marblehead. Hooper actively increased trade with his numerous ships which carried the town's cured fish to Europe, Africa, Russia and the Caribbean, returning with exotic cargoes which brought "affluence and influence". to both Hooper and Marblehead.- Hooper's prosperity was shared with his fedlow citizens.. He paid for the town teacher one year, and another year donated a silver flagon to the church.

In 1751 he presented a Iondon-made fire engine to the town and then organized a volunteer fire department under the name "Board of Firewardens." It was his generosity and concern that earned him the name "King Hooper." When the British began placing restrictions on colonial trade, Robert Hooper joined the protests and served on a committee to "petition His Majesty to disallow the Act." Al- though opposed to the trade restraints imposed by Britain, Hooper was not in favor of separation. Consequently, when the political situation moved towards independence, he was forced to mortgage his holdings, and flee to the Maritimes for the duration of the Revolution. When he returned, his wharves and valuables ahad been confiscated to pay for Marblehead's war debts, but his mansion was untouched.

Although "King Hooper" never recovered his earlier wealth, his progeny continued in the shipping ebusiness and /prospered. Robert Chamblett Hooper, a nineteenth century descendant,, owned Constitution Wharf and part of Union Wharf in Boston. The Hooper Mansion remained a residence until 1938 when the Marblehead Arts Association purchased the building and began to restore it. Since then it has served as an arts center for both the town and the North Shore. Frequent art exhibits and other public events as well as art classes for both children and adults are held in the King Hooper Mansion. The house is also open daily to visitors and townspeople.

The facade of the Hooper Mansion with its flush boards, quoins, and dentiled cornice, acts as a visual anchor for the streetscape. The Mansion also exhibits the change in architectural styles in New England between the period when the first portion of the house was built in 1727 and the contruction of the new portion of the house in 1745.

The older section of the house is a good example of vernacular Colonial architecture; the new section is an excellent provincial example of Georgian elegance.
