Explore the elegance of the Hawkes House, a stunning example of Federal-style architecture designed by renowned architect Samuel McIntire! 🏛️ Originally commissioned by Elias Hasket and Elizabeth Derby in 1780, the house remained unfinished until shipbuilder Benjamin Hawkes acquired it in 1800. With its beautifully carved details and classic three-story design, the Hawkes House reflects the rich architectural heritage of Salem in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
