This early Gothic Revival cottage was designed by Alexander Jackson Davis in 1845 for William J. Rotch (1819–1893), scion of New Bedford's leading whaling family. It exhibits features not found in other surviving similar works by Davis, and received wide public notice after its construction. The cottage is a private residence and is not open to the public.[146] Photo: User:Magicpiano, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NewBedfordMA_RotchCottage_Front.jpg)
