Houses built after 1900 with the characteristics described as follows have been designated as being Colonial Revival style. A basic characteristic feature of this style was the accentuated front door with a porch supported by slender columns. Doors often had overhead fan or transom lights with sidelights, and windows contained double hung sash with multi-pane glazing in one or both sashes. As the 20th century advanced, windows were grouped in pairs of even units of three. The Ernest L. Neville house on Hudson Lane, Monroe, figure 43, was erected as a two story house with a dominant front gable with a multi-paned Palladian window, complete with keystone. The half-porch is full height with a railed balcony and Doric columns. The circa 1914 James Harvey Trousdale house, figure 44, on Hudson Lane is Colonial Revival in detailing, but the dominant, nearly square, configuration resembles that of a 19th century Louisiana raised cottage. Note the full story height raised basement area with the broad entrance steps. [Illustration: _Fig. 44. The J. H. Trousdale House circa 1914 (Bldg. 148)._] The George Weaks House on Riverside Drive, Monroe, figure 45, was built during the first decade of the 20th century. The full two-story semicircular porch with columns and pilasters has a balustrade and broad dormer at the roofline. The front door is accentuated with square transom and sidelights. Note the elaborate expanse of entry steps at the porch floor. Windows are glazed with multiple upper sash panes and a single lower sash pane. [Illustration: _Fig. 45. Classical porch on circa 1900’s Weaks house._] Closer examination of the Weaks House in the porch detail, figure 46, reveals elaborate Colonial Revival detailing. The columns have Ionic capitals and fluting. The curved entablature with dentils is enhanced further with the application of moulded wood brackets under the roof eaves. [Illustration: _Fig. 46. Ionic column capitals on Weaks house (Bldg. 149)._] The Neville, Trousdale, and Weaks Houses were built near the river in the area expanding to the north of Monroe. They, along with the Governor Hall house which follows, are examples of the early Colonial Revival period in Monroe. The Governor Luther Hall Colonial Revival home pictured in figures 47 and 48 was erected on Jackson Street in the older section of Monroe circa 1906. It contains the characteristics of the style previously described—accentuated front door with full pedimented portico supported by slender columns, fan light and sidelights and multi-panes over single pane sashes. The Hall house also contains elaborate detailing in addition to these usual characteristics of the Colonial Revival style. [Illustration: _Fig. 47. Gov.
