The William G. Low House was a seaside cottage at 3 Low Lane in Bristol, Rhode Island. It was designed and built in 1886–1887 by architect Charles McKim of the New York City firm, McKim, Mead & White. With its distinctive single 140-foot-long (43 m) gable it embodied many of the tenets of Shingle Style architecture—horizontality, simplified massing and geometry, minimal ornamentation, the blending of interior and exterior spaces. Just before it was demolished in 1962, the house was documented with measured drawings and photographs by the Historic American Buildings Survey.

| - La casa William G. Low era una cabaña junto al mar en 3 Low Lane en Bristol, un pueblo situado en el estado de Rhode Island. Fue diseñado en 1886-87 por el arquitecto Charles McKim de la firma de Nueva York, McKim, Mead & White. Su distintivo y sencillo hastial de 42,7 m encarnaba muchos de los principios de la arquitectura estilo Shingle, como énfasis en la horizontalidad, la geometría y lamasa simplificadas, una ornamentación mínima, y la continuidad entre espacios interiores y exteriores. El historiador de la arquitectura Vincent Scully lo vio como "a la vez un clímax y una especie de conclusión" para McKim, ya que su "forma prototípica... fue casi inmediatamente abandonada por las columnas y frontones concebidos de manera más convencional de McKim, Mead y edificios posteriores de White". Justo antes de que fuera demolida en 1962, la casa fue documentada con dibujos medidos y fotografías por el Historic American Buildings Survey. El historiador de la arquitectura Leland Roth escribió: "Aunque poco conocida en su época, la Casa Low ha llegado a representar la marca más alta del estilo Shingle". (es)

The architectural historian Vincent Scully saw it as "at once a climax and a kind of conclusion" for McKim, since its "prototypal form ... was almost immediately to be abandoned for the more conventionally conceived columns and pediments of McKim, Mead, and White's later buildings." Just before it was demolished in 1962, the house was documented with measured drawings and photographs by the Historic American Buildings Survey. Wrote architectural historian Leland Roth, "Although little known in its own time, the Low House has come to represent the high mark of the Shingle Style." (en)
