The Whitehall Plantation house, figure 20, was built in 1858. Greek Revival style details include the squared transom and sidelights at the front door, low roof pitch, and pedimented window trim detail on the front gallery, figure 21. The gallery siding was flush but beaded. The windows extended to the floor allowing easy passage from interior rooms to the gallery. Operable, slatted shutters allowed sun control, ventilation, privacy. Whitehall is a 1½ story house with dormers, attic rooms, and an integral gallery. These were typical features for the Greek Revival cottages of both North and South Louisiana. The central hall plan is another characteristic of this type, which is generally associated with American settlement. [Illustration: _Fig. 19.

Circa 1910 two room house with integral gallery (Bldg. 120)._] [Illustration: _Fig. 23. Front view of a circa 1920 one room house (Bldg. 115)._] [Illustration: _Fig. 24. Side view of 1920 one room house (Bldg. 115)._] The alluvial lands east of the Ouachita contained two categories of dwellings, those of the plantation owner as previously described and the houses of the tenants and small land owners. The dwellings depicted on these and subsequent pages are typical of the latter category. The basic folk house plan types used were the one room, two room, shotgun and later the bungalow. Houses were usually constructed of wood frame with vertical board and batten siding or horizontal milled siding. A feature which the basic one room and two room plan dwellings had in common was the integral front gallery. The gallery roof framing was part of the roof structure of the core of the dwelling. One might notice in figure 22 that although two gallery columns are absent, the roof is still standing. The one room type is illustrated in figures 23 and 24. The front view of the circa 1920 house shows a side addition to the original core room. The side view, figure 24, shows that this was originally two rooms deep since the space usually occupied by the rear gallery was enclosed. The roof had wood shingles on wood lath. The shingles were later replaced with sheets of tin.
