    Realty executive Ernest Damiane builds a Tudor Revival house

    Ernest Damiane, vice-president of the A. & E. Realty Co., had this house built in 1929 under the strict design rules of the Fieldston Property Owners Association. Its architect, Robert Siering, had graduated from Cornell's architecture school in 1921, and this was his only design in Fieldston. The fieldstone main block, offset brick north wing, steep clay-tile roofs, half-timbering and paired angled chimney stacks on fieldstone bases are all still in place; the commission called the house remarkably intact.
