Description: The William T. Leitch House (1857-58) at 752 E. Gorham Street in Madison, Wisconsin. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The buff-colored sandstone for this Gothic revival house was quarried in Westport, barged across Lake Mendota, and cut on the building site. The exterior of the structure is characterized by high peaked gables, decorative barge-boards, spike finials, and a central cupola. William T. Leitch, a New York clothier, commissioned the house before coming to Madison in 1858. He served three terms as mayor beginning in 1862.
