Terry-Ketcham Inn

Terry-Ketcham Inn is a historic inn and tavern located at Center Moriches in Suffolk County, New York. It was built about 1693, expanded about 1710 and 1790, and is a two-story, nine by two bay frame structure with a rear wing and gable roof. The original structure was built as a two by three bay, single story timber frame cottage. In about 1710 a three by two bay timber frame half-house was built to the north of the original structure. A 1790 building program tripled the size of the structure.[2]

gollark: It doesn't, though; it's not actually going to be divided up neatly along the longitude lines still, so you'll have to have big tables of exceptions, only somewhat different ones now.
gollark: zoneinfo databases are fairly large, if I remember right.
gollark: I'm not sure it fixes much though. You still have to keep giant timezone databases around, and extra transitional logic, on top of the new ones.
gollark: More so than utter UTC, yes.
gollark: Oh no.
