<p>The Farwell Barn, also known as Jacobson Barn or Jacobson&#39;s Barn, is a historic property on Horsebarn Hill Road in Storrs, Connecticut, on the campus of the University of Connecticut. The property is also the site of the archaeological remains of the Farwell House. The barn "is a 19th-century post-and-beam framed clapboarded barn that was built as part of a family farm and then in 1911 was acquired by the Connecticut Agricultural College, the institution that became the University of Connecticut at Storrs." The corresponding house was burned in 1976. and</p><br>
<p>The barn was built c.1870 and a sheep barn attached portion was added during 1913-1915. The house was burned down to its foundations which today remain as an archaeological site. Archaeologists at the University of Connecticut have excavated this site through the Kids Are Scientists Too (KAST) program and have found various artifacts, including combs and coins.</p><br>
<p>The Rafael Gonzalez House is an historic house located at 835 Laguna Street in the historic center of the city of Santa Barbara, California. The Rafael Gonzales House was designated a National Historic Landmark on April 15, 1970, and added to the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The building is currently home to a bookstore, Randall House Rare Books. A plaque there says: "Built in 1825 by Rafael Gonzales, later alcalde of Santa Barbara. Owned by his daughter Salome de Ramirez from 1866 to 1923."</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was constructed in 1825 by Rafael Gonzalez, a landowner who in 1829 became an alcalde of Santa Barbara. At this time, Santa Barbara was a part of Mexican California. After his death, in 1866, the house was inherited by one of his daughters, Francisca Ventura Gonzalez de Ramires. She lived in the house until 1923, when it was sold out of the family.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The National Historic Landmark (NHL) Statement of Significance, written in 1970, reads:</p><br>
<p>"Built about 1825 by Don Rafael Gonzales, this one-story house with two one-room wings, covered verandas, and a tile roof is typical of Mexican-era adobe town houses of moderate size. Its main section is about 90 ft by 18 ft, the adobe walls at least 2 ft thick. Covered verandas extend along both long sides of the house."</p><br>
<p>The adobe house has seven rooms. It is built in the U-shape (with the longest part being parallel to Laguna Street) and stands on a hill, separated from both Laguna and Cañon Perdido Streets by garden walls.</p><br>
<p>Gourette  is a winter sports resort in the French Pyrenees. It is located in the commune of Eaux-Bonnes in the département of Pyrénées-Atlantiques, on the D 918 road which passes through the Col d&#39;Aubisque mountain pass. The closest air access is Pau Pyrénées Airport.</p><br>
<h2>Winter offerings</h2><br>
<p>In winter, the resort offers one of the largest skiable areas in the Pyrenean chain with 30 marked trails, and extending between 1,400 and 2,400 metres in altitude, covering about 90 hectares of mostly north-facing slopes. The area also hosts snowboarding and snowshoe trails. In 2005 the region spent over 50 million euros to improve its winter resort facilities, including trails, lifts, accommodation and other infrastructure.</p><br>
<h2>Summer offerings</h2><br>
<p>In summer, tourists visit the valley of the Gave d&#39;Ossau and its lakes for sightseeing, hiking, biking, rock climbing, and mountaineering, including the ascent of Pic du Midi d&#39;Ossau (2,884 metres/9,462 ft). The French GR 10 hiking trail, which covers over 800 km from one end of the Pyrenees to the other, passes through the village.</p><br>
<h2>Tour de France</h2><br>
<p>The 2007 Tour de France passed through Gourette. The road through the Col d&#39;Aubisque pass, cresting at an altitude of 1,710 metres (5,610 feet), has slopes from 7.5 to 10% and is considered a Hors Catégorie climb in Union Cycliste Internationale race classifications.</p><br>
<p>Cedar Lake is a 1,750-acre  reservoir in southern Illinois, created by the damming of Cedar Creek, a tributary of the Big Muddy River, in 1974. The lake is located in Jackson County, southwest of Carbondale, Illinois. The lake is accessible from USA Highway 51. The lake was constructed for the purpose of supplying tap water to the residents of Carbondale. In addition, the lake serves fishing, swimming, and active recreation purposes.</p><br>
<h2>Fishing and recreation</h2><br>
<p>In addition to water supply purposes, Cedar Lake is managed for bass (largemouth and striped) and crappie fishing. Fishermen can also fish for Channel catfish and bluegill. The lake was described in 2007 as receiving "moderate to heavy" fishing pressure from the recreationally active people of southern Illinois and southeast Missouri.</p><br>
<p>The city of Carbondale operates a parking lot, swimming beach, and boat dock at Cedar Lake. An admission fee is charged for the beach, but access to other sites is free of charge. The boat power limit is 10 hp or less.</p><br>
<p>There is also an extensive trail system running around the lake that is able to be hiked year-round. The Cedar Lake Trail System totals 14 miles in length, and consists of four separate trails. Though there are no developed campsites near the lake, primitive camping is allowed at least 150 ft. from the shoreline.</p><br>
<p>The nearest interstate exit is Exit 30 on Interstate 57.</p><br>
<p>Lyles Consolidated School is a historic school in Lyles Station, Indiana. The third school to be located in Lyles Station, it was opened in 1919 and used until 1958. Abandoned for nearly forty years, it had deteriorated almost to the point of total collapse by 1997. The Lyles Station Historic Preservation Corporation was founded in June 1997, to preserve and promote the history of the Lyles Station community. Its major project was restoration of the schoolhouse, intending to use it as a living history museum to educate others both about Lyles Station&#39;s history and the daily school routine in the early twentieth century. The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. Restoration of the site was completed in 2003.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Community</h3><br>
<p>The community of Lyles Station, which also includes its school, is an unincorporated community in Patoka Township, Gibson County, Indiana. Lyles Station is one of Indiana&#39;s early black rural settlements and the only one remaining. The rural settlement dates from 1849. It was formally named Lyles Station in 1886 to honor Joshua Lyles, a free African American who was one of its early settlers. Lyles migrated with his family from Tennessee to Indiana around 1837.</p><br>
<p>Lyles Station reached its peak in the years between 1880 and 1912, when major structures in the community included a school, railroad depot, a post office, a lumber mill, two general stores, and two churches. By the turn of the twentieth century, Lyles Station had fifty-five homes and a population of more than 800 people; however, the farming community never fully recovered from the Great Flood of 1913, which destroyed much of the town. Most of its residents left to find higher paying jobs and additional education in larger cities. By 1997, approximately fifteen families remained at Lyles Station, nearly all of them descended from the original settlers.</p><br>
<h3>School</h3><br>
<p>In 1864 Joshua Lyles donated the land to build a school in the community.</p><br>
<p>Lyles Consolidated School was Lyles Station&#39;s third school. Although the population of Lyles Station declined after the flood of 1913, a new school building was erected to educate the remaining children of the community; older schools at Lyles Station and nearby Sand Hill and Sugar Bluff were closed as part of a statewide trend towards school consolidation. The school opened in 1919 and was an integrated school until 1922, when it became an all-black public school. (White students were enrolled at Baldwin Heights School in Patoka Township.) In 1928, the parents of 10 children at school, including Vertus Hardiman were approached by county hospital officials. The parents were told that there was a new treatment for dermatophytosis, a fungal infection commonly known as “ringworm.” What the parents didn’t know was that the children were actually part of a human experiment on extreme radiation, probably chosen because they lived in such an isolated location, and probably because they were all Black. The children were exposed to high levels and many were left with disfiguring scalp scars and head trauma. The effects of the experiments were mostly hidden from the townspeople of Lyles Station. Many of the children wore wigs and hats to cover up the results of the experiments</p><br>
<p>Lyles Stations&#39;s school was integrated once again in the 1950s; it closed in 1958 due to declining enrollment.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The restored school building serves as a community center and local history museum.</p><br>
<p>When the National Register nomination form was prepared in 1998, the school had deteriorated but its building materials were original to the construction date. The exterior was described as a two-story brick and wood building in the Prairie School style that featured a low, flat roof. The first floor was covered with red brick; the second was sheathed in clapboard siding. A cupola with a hipped roof project from the center of the roof. A brick chimney extended above the roofline. The facade featured eight, double hung windows. A projecting entrance with concrete steps lead to double entry doors. Three fixed windows were centered above the entrance.</p><br>
<p>The National Register nomination form described the interior as it looked in 1998. Main entry doors opened onto two flights of wooden stairs and a hall. The first floor had a large auditorium space on the south side. Rooms across the hall included a classroom, utility area, and boiler room/coal storage area. A dressing room was located at the far end of the hall. The second floor included classrooms, an office, and a storage room.</p><br>
<h2>Legacy</h2><br>
<p>Although most of Indianas black rural settlements no longer exist as self-contained communities, Lyles Station continues. The restored school building and the Wayman Chapel AME Church are two remaining points of interest in Lyles Station to remind residents and visitor of its heritage as one of Indianas early rural black communities. The community hosts annual reunions and its advocacy group, the Lyles Station Historic Preservation Corporation, preserves its heritage.</p><br>
<p>Verno  is a forested mountain range in the southern part of the Florina and the northeastern part of the Kastoria regional units in northern Greece. The elevation of its highest peak, Vitsi, is 2,128 m. It stretches from the village Trivouno in the northwest to Kleisoura in the southeast, over a length of about 30 km. The nearest mountains are the Askio to the southeast, the Baba to the north and the northern Pindus to the southwest. It is drained towards the river Sakoulevas  to the northeast, and towards the Aliakmonas and Lake Kastoria to the southwest.</p><br>
<p>The nearest towns are Kastoria to the southwest and Florina to the northeast. Mountain villages in the Verno mountains include Trivouno, Polypotamo and Triantafyllia in the north, Makrochori, Vyssinia and Vasileiada in the south and Nymfaio in the east. The Greek National Road 2 (Krystallopigi - Florina - Edessa - Thessaloniki) runs north of the mountains. There is a road to the top of the mountain Vitsi.</p><br>
<p>The Cathedral of Saint Joseph of Wheeling or Saint Joseph&#39;s Cathedral is the seat of the bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston. In addition to being the seat of the bishop, the cathedral is home to the oldest congregation in the city of Wheeling, West Virginia. The cathedral is a contributing property to the East Wheeling Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by Edward Weber and in the Neo-Romanesque style. It cost about $500,000 to build in 1926, which is approximately equivalent to $5,540,000 in 2006.</p><br>
<p>The present building was dedicated by Bishop John Joseph Swint in April 1926. The building is successor to the original cathedral, which was constructed in 1847.</p><br>
<p>In 1973, the church was renovated in order to comply with the post-Vatican II liturgy. In this renovation the altar was moved forward and various other changes were made.</p><br>
<p>Currently the pastor of the cathedral is the Most Reverend Michael Bransfield, bishop of the diocese; the Rector is Monsignor Kevin Quirk.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The cathedral is a Lombardi Romanesque structure with a modified basilica floor plan that is cruciform in shape. It features a dome that rises 148 ft above the crossing. Two turrets flank a rose window on the main facade and contribute to the fortress-like character of the building.</p><br>
<p>The adjacent rectory is a three story, five bay house that was built in the Gothic revival style in 1920. It is a brick structure that is built on a stone foundation and capped with a mansard roof with dormers. Plain brackets are located under the eaves. The wood carved double entrance way is flanked by columns that are capped with decorative stone carvings. The third floor features Gothic-arched tracery windows and a balcony with decorative stonework.</p><br>
<p>Hawley Lake is a 300 acre lake and place in east-central Arizona, in the White Mountain Apache Indian Reservation, and has an elevation of 8,200 ft.</p><br>
<p>The lake is a remnant of Pliocene volcanism on the Mogollon Rim but it has been artificially extended as a reservoir for downstream irrigation plus trout and ice fishing (though an $9 tribal licence is required to fish on the reservation). Its popularity as a recreational area is enhanced by a nearby ski resort.</p><br>
<h2>Climate</h2><br>
<p>Owing to its high altitude, Hawley Lake has a humid continental climate (Köppen Dsb) and stands as one of the coldest and wettest places in Arizona. Lake-effect snow gives it much heavier snowfall than nearby towns like Alpine and in March 1973 snowfall was as high as 105 in. Rainfall from July to September is also high, though not exceptional compared to many parts of southeastern Arizona.</p><br>
<p>Hawley Lake holds the all-time record low temperature in Arizona history with −40 °F (−40 °C) recorded on January 7, 1971. It also holds the record for most precipitation in a calendar year in Arizona with 58.92 in in 1978 – much of that being snow.</p><br>
<p>The Samuel J. Tilden House was the home of Samuel J. Tilden, former governor of the USA state of New York and fierce opponent of the Tweed Ring and Tammany Hall. Originally built in 1845, Tilden lived in the brownstone from 1860 until his death in 1886. From 1881 to 1884, which has been described as "the height of Victorian Gothic in residential architecture" with Italian Renaissance style elements.</p><br>
<p>Tilden ran for president in 1876, winning the popular vote, but losing the electoral college to Rutherford B. Hayes. This was one of the end points of the Reconstruction. In those tumultuous times, he had both rolling steel doors and a secret escape tunnel.</p><br>
<p>Since 1906, the house has been occupied by the National Arts Club, a private arts club.</p><br>
<p>The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1966, and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976. It is located in the Gramercy Park Historic District.</p><br>
<p>Whiteside Mountain is a mountain in Jackson County, North Carolina between Cashiers, Highlands, North Carolina, and the Georgia border. Whiteside Mountain can boast the highest cliffs in Eastern North America. It also has a feature called Devils Courthouse, not to be confused with the Devils Courthouse 20 miles away in Transylvania County, NC.</p><br>
<p>Since the 1980s, the forest service has tried to restrict access to the Courthouse and has allowed the foot trail to it to grow over because of dangers such as strong winds. They also did not want accidents from paragliding and similar activities taking place from the mountain top or from the Courthouse. There is also an overhang, a small platform less than 7 feet in diameter, connected to Whiteside as if it were a cantilever. Similar overhangs can be found on the Appalachian Trail.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Cherokee name for Whiteside mountain is Sanigilâ&#39;gĭ.</p><br>
<h3>Legend of Spear Finger</h3><br>
<p>Cherokee myth says that Spear-finger, the powerful woman monster, built a bridge from the Hiwassee River to Whiteside Mountain.</p><br>
<h3>Legend of De Soto</h3><br>
<p>The overhanging edge has a message carved into it, which reads that Hernando de Soto was there and that it was carved by his men who allegedly threw over their sick, crippled horses there. However, it is likely a hoax carved by some boys sometime in 1926 when there was probably much more of the overhang than there is today. Since the terrain is too rough for men and horses to get through, for De Soto to have come through here at a time when there were no roads or pathways is unlikely. De Soto&#39;s route most likely took him through the Cumberland Gap from South Carolina.</p><br>
<p>Shining Rock is a mountain in western North Carolina. The mountain is one of the Great Balsam Mountains which are a part of the Blue Ridge Mountains within the Appalachian Mountains. It is the 38th tallest mountain in the eastern United States.</p><br>
<p>Shining Rock is in the Shining Rock Wilderness near milepost 420 of the Blue Ridge Parkway. The Art Loeb Trail passes just below the summit.</p><br>
<p>Shining Rock is named for the large white quartzite rock outcropping near its summit.</p><br>
<h2>Cherokee lore</h2><br>
<p>According to the Cherokee anthropologist James Mooney, the Cherokee name for Shining Rock, Datsunălâsgûñyĭ, translates to "where their tracks are this way" and refers to a rock that is said to have tracks of Tsul &#39;Kalu and his children.</p><br>
<p>This is distinct from Judaculla Rock which is discussed with Tsul Kalu, is south of the Blue Ridge Parkway and contains petroglyphs. Confusion arises because Judaculla (or Jutaculla) is a European corruption of the name Tsul Kalu; hence there appear to be two rocks of Cherokee lore named with variations of the name.</p><br>
<p>The Pollino  is a massif in the southern Apennines, on the border between Calabria and Basilicata, southern Italy. It became part of the Pollino National Park in 1992. The main peaks include Monte Pollino 2,248 m and the massif&#39;s high point, Serra Dolcedorme 2,267 m, which overlooks the plain of Sibari.</p><br>
<h2>Geology</h2><br>
<p>Formed from limestone, the Pollino is the highest area in the range and erosion of the limestone, especially on the Calabrian side, has created numerous grottoes, such as the Romito grottoes, in which Palaeolithic petroglyphs have been found. Canyons have also been carved into the limestone, such as the canyon created by the Raganello stream.</p><br>
<h2>Wildlife</h2><br>
<p>The Pollino is home to a flourishing fauna and flora. Woods dominated by chestnut, beech and the rare Bosnian pine, which is the park&#39;s symbol, cover especially the highest peaks; animal species include the Italian wolf, eagle owl, roe deer and the rare golden eagle.</p><br>
<p>Lit Brothers was a moderately-priced department store based in Philadelphia. Samuel and Jacob Lit opened the first store at North 8th and Market Streets in 1891. Lits positioned itself well as a more affordable alternate to competitors Strawbridge and Clothier, John Wanamaker, and Gimbels. The store&#39;s slogan was "A Great Store in A Great City," and it was noted for its millinery department.</p><br>
<p>The Lit Brother Store building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, and is located in the East Center City Commercial Historic District.</p><br>
<h2>History and architecture</h2><br>
<p>In 1891, Rachel P. Lit (1858-1919, later surnamed Weddel, still later Arnold) opened a woman&#39;s clothing shop on the corner of Market and N. 8th Streets. With the administration and innovative advertising techniques of her brothers, Colonel Samuel David Lit (1859-1929) and Jacob David Lit (1872-1950), their small store soon became one of the largest retail stores in Philadelphia. From 1895 to 1907, the store continued to expand, with the company taking over the remaining buildings on the block of Market between North 7th and 8th Streets &ndash; including the J. M. Maris Dry Goods Store, the Bailey Store and the J. B. Lippincott & Co. Building &ndash; and adding new buildings at either end of the block designed to blend in with the existing buildings. With alterations and additions, the Lit Brothers Store became the only full block of Victorian architecture in Philadelphia, composed of 33 buildings constructed between 1859 and 1918, with a common interior. The new buildings and the alterations were designed by Charles M. Autenrieth and Edward Collins.</p><br>
<p>Although the store on Market Street was often called the "cast-iron building", only two of original building&#39;s facades (at 719-721 Market and 714-718 Arch Street) are actually cast iron. The other buildings are brick, faced with marble or granite. The two end buildings are brick and terra-cotta, with galvanized iron trim and octagonal towers. The uniformity of the entire Renaissance Revival-style facade is supported by the use of a classical arch window in all of the buildings, which are painted the same color.</p><br>
<p>The company was purchased in 1928 by Albert M. Greenfields Bankers Securities Corporation and was eventually merged into its City Stores Company &ndash; now CSS Industries, Inc. &ndash; a retail holding company consisting of stores located in urban centers throughout the south and east, such as the W & J Sloane furniture store, and the Washington, D.C.–based department store chain Lansburghs. In 1962, they purchased the suburban locations of Snellenburg&#39;s, another Philadelphia department store chain owned by Bankers Securities Corporation, which was closed in 1963. The Lit Brothers chain subsequently closed in 1977.</p><br>
<h3>The Enchanted Colonial Village</h3><br>
<p>Lits joined its fellow Center City department stores in presenting a Christmas season exhibit when, in 1961, it opened the Enchanted Colonial Village. The Village, designed by Philadelphia display designer Thomas Comerford, cost approximately $1 million. It was built by German toy manufacturer Christian Hofmann of Bad Rodach, West Germany. This room-by-room display of a colonial-era Christmas ran each year from Thanksgiving to New Year&#39;s Eve, and remained until the final Christmas season in 1976. The exhibit itself was bought from liquidators for $35,000 by the Sun Oil Company, who later donated it to the Atwater Kent Museum. It has since been restored, and (since 2001) sections are displayed around the holiday season at the Please Touch Museum.</p><br>
<h3>Growth and competition</h3><br>
<p>Lits saw the growing demand for suburban locations, and started building stores in mall locations around the greater Philadelphia market, including southern New Jersey. Lits also operated a store in nearby downtown Camden, and Lits was the only one of Philadelphias department stores to maintain a branch along the New Jersey Shore, when it acquired the Blatt Department Store in downtown Atlantic City, and re-branded this location as Lits. Additional suburban locations were added with the acquisition of Snellenburgs in 1962.</p><br>
<p>Faced with growing competition in a changing retail landscape, Lit Brothers closed its doors in 1977. One of Lits larger competitors, Gimbels, built a new store in Center City as part of The Gallery Mall in 1977, and while Lits was only one block away from The Gallery, not being a direct part of the popular new complex hurt sales at its important flagship location.</p><br>
<h2>Repurposing of flagship store</h2><br>
<p>After the chain closed in 1977, the full-block flagship store was vacant until the late 1980s. At this point, it was redeveloped as office and commercial space by Growth Properties. The project was designed by Burt Hill Kosar Rittelmann Associates and John Milner Associates. The building reopened in 1989 as Mellon Independence Center, after its principal occupant, the regional headquarters for Mellon Bank, and featured retail stores on the street level, and a food court on the lower level. The sign reading "Hats Trimmed Free of Charge" can still be seen today on the façade of the redeveloped flagship building.</p><br>
<p>The historic 720,000 ft&sup2; building was put on the market in 2007, with an asking price of $70 million. By 2013, the main entrance to the building, addressed as 701 Market Street, carried the name "Market Place East".</p><br>
<p>Skipton Wood  is a 36 acre wood following the valley of Eller Beck to the north of Skipton behind Skipton Castle in North Yorkshire, England. The wood is owned by Skipton Castle but has been leased to the Woodland Trust.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The wood was originally used by Skipton Castle primarily for hunting and fishing, although during the 18th and 19th centuries, the wood was also used to provide timber, building stone and water. The timber and stone was moved out of the wood via Springs Canal (a small branch off the Leeds and Liverpool Canal). The water was obtained by damming Eller Beck to form Long Dam, which in turn fed a small reservoir called Round Dam, also known as Mill Dam or Mill Pond. The water was used to power the former sawmill and corn mill located by the castle. Public access to the wood was first allowed by the owners of the castle in 1971 between the hours of 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.</p><br>
<h2>Flora and fauna</h2><br>
<p>Most of the wood is native broadleaved trees such as oak and ash and is classed as "ancient semi-natural woodland" by the Woodland Trust. There are also a large number of introduced beech and sycamore trees with a smaller number of non-native trees such as hornbeam and sweet chestnut. A small four hectare area of the wood to the north-west has been replanted with a mix of oak, Scots pine, larch and Norway spruce. This area has been designated as "replanted ancient woodland". The ground flora consists of dense carpets of wild garlic, bluebells and dog&#39;s mercury.</p><br>
<p>Notable animal species in the wood include badgers, roe deer, kingfishers, spotted flycatchers, sparrowhawks, spotted and green woodpeckers, as well as Natterers, noctule, pipistrelle, brown long-eared and Daubentons bats.</p><br>
<p>Lough Tay , commonly called The Guinness Lake, is a small but scenic lake set on private property, in the Wicklow Mountains in County Wicklow, Ireland. It lies between the mountains of Djouce and Luggala, and is most easily viewed from above, from the R759 or the Wicklow Way as it descends past the J. B. Malone memorial. It is fed by the Cloghoge River, which then drains into Lough Dan to the south. It is not possible to visit Lough Tay without prior permission.</p><br>
<p>The name is believed to derive from the Proto-Indo-European root *teh₂w-, "melt", "dissolve", "flow".</p><br>
<p>The northern coastline forms part of an estate belonging to the Guinness family; it is edged with a beach of startlingly white sand, the dark peaty water and the white sand create a striking similarity to a pint (a glass) of Guinness.</p><br>
<p>The philosopher Bertrand Russell wrote in his Autobiography:</p><br>
<p>Samuel Burdsal House is a registered historic building in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, listed in the National Register on June 10, 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Historic uses</h2><br>
<p>The home was built by Samuel Burdsal in 1834 as a dwelling for his family following his marriage to Mary Ann Turner of Boston, Massachusetts. Located in the historic Pendleton district, the home is on the National Register of Historic Places. Known as the "Samuel Burdsal House" the structure was added to the National Register in 1982, number: 82003577. The home is also known as the "Mushkat-Burrow House", and is located at 1342 Broadway St., Cincinnati, Ohio.</p><br>
<p>The Cincinnati Gazette dated 29 June 1888 discusses Samuel Burdsal and states:</p><br>
<p>"Samuel Burdsal, seventy-seven years of age, the oldest druggist in Cincinnati, died at fifteen minutes past eleven yesterday morning. He was born in Newtown, January 9, 1812. When a young man of twenty he came to Cincinnati and entered into the drug house of Ashton, Cleveland and Co., on the south-west corner of Fifth and Main streets. Mr. Cleveland, who was a member of the firm, was the uncle of Grover Cleveland, the President, and came from that good old Democrat County of Clermont. When he became of age, Mr. Burdsal went into business for himself and was for a time on Main Street. Afterward he moved to No. 409 Main Street, opposite the Court House, and for fifty two years has occupied these premises consecutively. Five years ago he celebrated his golden wedding at which time Mr. Dunlap, now of Cedarville, who was one of his groomsmen, was present. In the early days of the Volunteer Fire Department Mr. Burdsal was an enthusiastic member and was for many years the Treasurer of the Sevens."</p><br>
<p>Samuel Burdsal was the son of Joshia Burdsal (Trenton, New Jersey) and Hannah Williamson of Pennsylvania. The couple had two daughters and three sons.</p><br>
<p>An unusual article titled, "Noted Loungers who used to delight to spit on Burdsal&#39;s stove" lists men such as Gen William H. Harrison (President of the US); various judges and noted lawyers, many additional generals and various governors, as well as Samuel Clemens.</p><br>
<p>The C.H. Burroughs House is a historic former house in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Constructed at the end of the nineteenth century by one of the city&#39;s most prominent architects, the house has been converted into a social club, but it retains enough of its integrity to qualify for designation as a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>C.H. Burroughs arranged for the construction of the present house in 1888, using land that had formerly been owned by the nearby Lane Theological Seminary. Its design was produced by Samuel Hannaford, a prominent Cincinnati architect. The Burroughs House is one of many surviving Hannaford houses that were built in some of Cincinnatis most prestigious neighborhoods, including Walnut Hills, Clifton, and Avondale. Many of Hannafords designs were constructed in such neighborhoods because of the architects reputation: he was known for insisting on the highest quality materials and workmanship and for his willingness to design structures in many popular architectural styles. As a result, his designs gained great favor among many of the great men of politics and business in Gilded Age Cincinnati. Located in Walnut Hills, the house is owned by the Cincinnati Federation of Colored Womens Clubs, a group of social clubs for black women. The organization purchased the property in 1925 in order to have space in which they could meet without fear of race-based exclusion; they took more than twenty years to pay the mortgage in full, but the house quickly became a subject of pride for the members. Members use the house to host community functions, including charitable events to mentor children and to bring elderly adults together with older children.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Built of brick, the C.H. Burroughs House rests on a stone foundation and is covered by a slate roof. Two and a half stories tall, its design mixes elements of the Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival architectural styles. The houses general floor plan is irregular, lacking symmetry, due partly to the presence of a prominent gable on one side of the facade and a round turret on another side. Including these two segments, the facade is divided into three bays, with a portico at the base of the middle bay, surrounding the main entrance. Even the front gable displays irregularity by the presence of a bay window solely in the first story. On all sides of the exterior, lintels of ashlar form belt courses, while lugsills combine to produce string courses. Most of the house is covered by a hip roof, although the turrets roof rises to a conical peak. The interior is divided into seventeen rooms, decorated with elements such as carven wood, brass chandeliers, multiple fireplaces with ornamental mantels, and crown molding.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>In early 1980, the Burroughs House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its distinctive historic architecture. Dozens of other properties in Cincinnati were added to the Register at the same time as part of a multiple property submission of buildings designed by Samuel Hannaford. The house was renovated in 1998 after the Cincinnati city government gave the club $230,000 for structural improvements.</p><br>
<p>The Wesley Butler Archeological District (designated 33HA249</p><br>
<p>In the late 1950s, an archaeological field survey visited the site repeatedly. Comparatively few artifacts were found: only scrapers, an axe, and tiny projectile points were found, all in tiny numbers, although numerous pieces of chert were discovered with evidence that humans had worked them. The survey found absolutely no pottery whatsoever, confusing the surveyors and leading them to suggest that the mounds and the village site had been the result of separate occupations of the same location.</p><br>
<p>The western portion of Hamilton County contains many archaeological sites, due primarily to its favorable terrain. The area is well watered by the Ohio and Miami Rivers; consequently, prior to white settlement of the region, there were large amounts of game, and edible plants could be found in large numbers. For this reason, the Wesley Butler site has been inhabited for at least six thousand years. In recognition of the district&#39;s archaeological value, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<p>The William L. Gregg House is a historic Victorian building in the Second Empire style located in Westmont, Illinois.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Following the completion of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad in 1864, shares of the land that was to become Westmont were sold to Phipps Industrial Land Trust. Following the Great Chicago Fire in late 1871, this land was again sold to several brick manufacturers to accelerate the regrowth of the city.</p><br>
<p>William L. Gregg owned the highest point of land near the railroad, allowing for easy export of brick by steam locomotive. Gregg constructed a house atop the hill to showcase the product of the Excelsior Brick Company. After the population of Chicago re-stabilized in the early 20th century, demand for brick was reduced and the house was rented and re-purposed for a variety of functions. The dilapidated house was considered for demolition in the 1970s, but a historical group restored the house. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980; The following year, it became the Westmont Historical Society museum.</p><br>
<p>It is currently located on the grounds of Lou Cimera Field in Veterans Memorial Park and is open to the public twice a week.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The one-story William L. Gregg House is rectangular brick house. The mansard roof is steep with overhanging gable dormers. Double-hung windows are decorated with arch brick heads, except for the two flanking the main entrance. The side of the house now has a frame sun-porch, which was added in the 1920s. An addition was also made to the rear of the house at this time. Although the floor plan of the interior is intact, little of its original design remains. The house was moved a short distance and placed on a new foundation in 1977.</p><br>
<p>Mount Tomanivi, previously named Mount Victoria and also known as Toamiivi, is an extinct volcano located in the northern highlands of Viti Levu. At 1,324 m, Mount Tomanivi is the highest mountain in Fiji. A trail leads to the summit of Tomanivi from the village of Navai. The main river systems, the Rewa, Navua, Sigatoka, and Ba, all have their headwaters in the central mountain area.</p><br>
<p>Tomanivi contains a significant proportion of the highest-altitude montane forest in Fiji. This is an important habitat for birds and other biodiversity. A 17,500 hectare area covering the slopes of Tomanivi is the Greater Tomaniivi Important Bird Area. The Important Bird Area combines Tomaniivi Nature Reserve and Wabu Forest Reserve with other contiguous forests to form a single forest block. It is seen as the best hope for the critically endangered Red-throated Lorikeet surviving anywhere in the world. It also supports populations of endangered Long-legged Warblers, and the vulnerable Shy Ground-dove and Pink-billed parrotfinch.</p><br>
<p>Kyparissia  is a village, former bishopric and present Latin Catholic titular see in southwestern Arcadia, Peloponnese peninsula of continental Greece.</p><br>
<p>It is part of the municipal unit of Gortyna. In 2011 Kyparissia had a population of 58. It is situated near the left bank of the river Alfeios. 1 km south of Mavria, 3 km east of Kourounios, 3 km northeast of Isoma Karyon, 3 km west of Katsimpalis, 5 km southeast of Karytaina and 8 km northwest of Megalopoli. There are lignite mines east of the village.</p><br>
<h2>History and remains</h2><br>
<p>The town lay in Achaea (Roman province) and after split in the Late Roman province of Peloponnesus Secundus.</p><br>
<p>The ancient city Trapezus was situated near the village.</p><br>
<p>To the east of the modern village lay the ancient town of Basilis (Βασιλίς), which had largely vanished by the 2nd century AD, when the geographer Pausanias recorded that only the sanctuary of hunting goddess Artemis survived. The site is now being excavated.</p><br>
<p>Ciparissia once was a (late Byzantine?) bishopric, apparently a suffragan of the Metropolis of Patras, in the sway of the Patriarchate of Constantinople, but it was suppressed without a single historically documented incumbent.</p><br>
<h2>Titular see</h2><br>
<p>It was nominally restored in 1933 as a Latin Titular bishopric.</p><br>
<p>It is vacant since decades, having had the following incumbents of the fitting episcopal (lowest) rank:</p><br>
<p>Arthur-Alfred Lepailleur, Holy Cross Fathers (C.S.C.) (1951.03.08 – death 1952.04.12) as emeritate, previously Bishop of Chittagong (Bangladesh) (1927.06.18 – 1951.03.08)</p><br>

<p>Lake Oologah is a reservoir in northeastern Oklahoma. It is located near the towns of Oologah, Nowata, and Claremore. The lake has a surface of 29,500 acre of water and</p><br>
<p>209 mi of shoreline with 11 lake-side parks. The water storage capacity is rated as 552,210 acre.ft. The lake is formed along the Verdigris River, and is a source of water for the Tulsa Metropolitan Area. The purpose of the dam and lake is flood control, water supply, navigation, recreation, and fish and wildlife.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>The dam and lake were built by the USA Army Corps of Engineers, who still administer it. The project was authorized by the Flood Control Act of 1938 and construction began in 1950. In 1951, construction was halted and resumed in 1955. In 1963, the majority of the project was complete and all facilities were in 1974. In 1976, the City of Tulsa built a pipeline connecting Oologah to the Lynn Lane Reservoir in Tulsa. Raw water supplied by this system is treated by the A. B. Jewell Water Treatment Plant, which was built in 1974 with a design capacity of 90,000,000 USgal/d. The Jewell plant capacity has since been expanded to 120,000,000 USgal/d.</p><br>
<p>The Oologah Dam is located at 36&deg;25&prime;19&Prime;N latitude, 95&deg;40&prime;49&Prime;W longitude and is an earth-fill embankment type. Its maximum height is 137 ft above the river bed and the embankment is 4,000 ft long. The dam&#39;s spillway is located 2 mi to the east and is composed of seven radial gates.</p><br>
<p>Recreation opportunities include a swimming beach, mountain biking, marina, RV and tent camping, picnic tables and a playground. On the east side of the lake, the Will Rogers Country Centennial Trail winds around the shore from the Spillway to Blue Creek Park totalling 18 miles.</p><br>
<p>Famous American actor, philosopher, cowboy and writer, Will Rogers, was born on the Dog Iron Ranch which now sits on the shores of Oologah Lake since the basin was dammed and flooded.</p><br>
<p>Old Main, constructed in 1907-1908, is a historic building at Dakota College at Bottineau , a two-year college in Bottineau, North Dakota. The building previously housed the North Dakota School of Forestry. The building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1889, the North Dakota legislature desired to build a forestry school. Bottineau was chosen as the location in 1894. The state legislative assembly raised $25,000 in 1907, then commissioned architect Joseph Shannon for the building, completed in 1908. The school was constructed in the Romanesque Revival style. The school&#39;s campus expanded over the years, but the original building kept its nickname of Old Main.</p><br>
<h2>Current status</h2><br>
<p>A new addition has been constructed at Dakota College at Bottineau (then called Minot State University-Bottineau) and Old Main will be left vacant. People at the college are looking at ways to maintain the building and put it to a new use. It will be left vacant and minimally heated after faculty have moved into the new addition in August 2007. The building is considered endangered by Preservation North Dakota.</p><br>
<p>Bogakain Lake, also called Baga Lake or Boga Lake, is a lake located in Ruma Upazila in the hill district Bandarban, Bangladesh. It is a natural sweet and deep water lake. Its height from sea level is nearly 2,400 ft. Geologists believe that it was created by collection of rain water in the crater of a dead volcano almost 2000 years ago. The lake is rectangular in shape.</p><br>
<p>A local legend tells that the lake was created after the inhabitants of a Khumi village killed and ate a deity who later reappeared to them in the form of a dragon. Instantly an earthquake occurred, the hillside caved in, and the village disappeared and formed a deep lake.The water color of the lake varies at different times at a day depending upon the sun light, humidity and clouds.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The lake is bounded on three sides by mountain peaks covered with thick bamboo bushes. The area of the lake is 18.56 acre. It is a closed lake and there is a small spring named Boga chhara, which is 153 m deep. There is no outlet for draining out water from the lake. The lake is composed of the soft rocks of the Bhuban Formation. The main source of water is the spring. The water is crystal clear and under the lake the water there are rocks and boulders all over.</p><br>
<h2>Tourism</h2><br>
<p>There are small tribal communities like the Bawm, Tripura and Khumi located around the lake. In the rainy season, it is quite difficult to stroll beside the lake. The road from Ruma to Boga Lake is still under construction.The lake attracts tourists because of its scenic beauty but it is inaccessible by any means of transport. Only those who take the trouble of walking through the hilly bushes sometimes visit the lake.</p><br>
<p>Due to the acidity of the lake, there is no immediate vegetation on its banks and no fish in its waters either.</p><br>
<p>There are around 20 cottages located in the Bogalake surrounding. The most popular cottage is Siam Didis cottage along with Larams cottage and Robert cottage. Accommodation cost is per head basis TK. 100.00 only. Foods are also arranged by the cottages. Foods are fresh and hygienic. Food menu includes plain rice, potato vorta, pulse, egg fry and vegetables pricing TK. 100.00 only. There is no need to advance reservation. Before entering Bogalake, tourists need to take permission from army camp situated there. There is also a church for the local people. Most of them are Christian. Behind the church, locally made hard drinks are found, which are also good in taste.</p><br>
<p>But visitors do not hike to Boga Lake for fishing, they come to the lake to marvel at its size, its magnificent views and to be able to enjoy a wonderful quiet moment of rest surrounded by natural beauty and wonder.</p><br>
<p>1 Hanover Square, formerly known as the New York Cotton Exchange building and as India House, is on the southern edge of Hanover Square in Lower Manhattan, New York City.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The structure was constructed as a commercial investment by the builder, developer and merchant Richard F. Carman in 1851-53. It was the headquarters of the Hanover Bank. In 1870, the New York Cotton Exchange was founded here, the second such exchange in the world and the first commodity market in the United States. After 1914, it was India House, a private club.</p><br>
<p>It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. It currently houses restaurants. It was also used in the 2001 film Kate and Leopold as Leopold&#39;s family home.</p><br>
<p>The Captain Stone House is a historic house in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. A Romanesque Revival structure built in 1890, After Stone&#39;s lifetime, the house became a center for a Cincinnati chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous, which continues to host meetings at the property.</p><br>
<p>Located on a corner lot, Hannafords design features such distinctive elements as a round turret at the houses most prominent corner and a large gable on the house&#39;s front. Built with an asymmetrical floor plan, The walls are built primarily of large ashlar blocks that form massive lintels, as well as smaller blocks that compose lug sills and string courses. Individuals may enter the house through a Romanesque entryway, which is accessed by a large front porch.</p><br>
<p>Stones house was typical of the Hannaford style; four other Hannaford houses from the same period of time remain in Cincinnati, and all five buildings feature walls of coursed ashlar. By the late nineteenth century, Hannafords name was well known both in Cincinnati and elsewhere; he had produced the grand Music Hall in the 1870s, and many of the citys richest residents commissioned houses from him in the citys most prestigious neighborhoods. Dozens of nineteenth-century Hannaford designs remain in Cincinnati, including twenty houses; many of them have been deemed as worthy of historic preservation because of their distinctive architecture. Among these houses is the Stone House, which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, due to architecture that makes it important statewide, along with most of Hannaford&#39;s remaining buildings in Cincinnati.</p><br>
<p>The John Church Company Building is a historic commercial building in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Designed by one of Cincinnatis most prominent architects, it was home to one of the countrys leading vendors of sheet music and musical instruments, and it has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<p>John Church, Jr. established the company in 1859, and after taking partners into the firm, he incorporated it in 1885. Among the companys leading ventures was the marketing of pianos produced by the Everett Piano Company of Boston, Massachusetts, which was functionally a wholly owned subsidiary. Other subsidiary companies included Cincinnatis Royal Manufacturing Company, which produced smaller musical instruments such as drums, violins, guitars, mandolins, and banjos. These firms had been separate until 1892, when they were consolidated under one management in order to expand their influence over the broader world of music business.</p><br>
<p>Besides musical instruments, the John Church Company published large amounts of sheet music; by the late 1870s, they were the largest music publishing house in Cincinnati and all of Ohio, and one of the largest in the United States. Among their titles were educational works such as the "School of Singing" and religious works such as "Choir and Congregation", in addition to other publications in all fields of contemporary music.</p><br>
<p>Built in 1885 on a foundation of limestone, the John Church Company Building is a primarily brick and stone structure in the Renaissance Revival style; its roof is rubber, and it features some elements of iron and steel. The five-story facade is divided into two sections of three bays each, with storefronts on the first floor and windows higher up, and topped with a decorative cornice. Although one of its neighbors is just three stories tall, it is substantially smaller than many of the surrounding buildings. Their building was designed by Samuel Hannaford, a leading Cincinnati architect responsible for designing many of the city&#39;s most significant buildings, including Cincinnati Music Hall. As a work of a prominent architect, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994; it is one of dozens of Hannaford designs listed on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>The Cincinnati and Whitewater Canal Tunnel is a historic yet abandoned canal tunnel in the southwestern corner of the USA state of Ohio. Located within the village of Cleves near Cincinnati, it was constructed in 1837 as part of the Whitewater Canal system. Since the canal&#39;s closure, it has largely been forgotten, but it has been designated a historic site.</p><br>
<p>After Indiana began building the Whitewater Canal in the 1830s, Ohio businessmen urged the construction of an extension from the canal to Cincinnati. The resulting Cincinnati and Whitewater Canal was completed in 1843, including a canal tunnel near the village of North Bend, which was finished six years before the canal opened for business.</p><br>
<p>Lined with brick,</p><br>
<p>Despite the efforts spent on building the Whitewater Canal, it was abandoned in 1856 after numerous floods had destroyed much of its length. This resulted in the abandonment of the canal tunnel, a period of stagnation that ended in 1863 when a railroad company began a twenty-five-year period of using it as an ordinary rail tunnel. Since the rail line ceased operation in 1888, the canal has become completely unusable, having silted up almost all the way to the ceiling. However, the tunnel has not been completely forgotten; the Ohio Historical Society and a group of private organizations placed a historical marker by the tunnel&#39;s northern portal in 2000, and it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in mid-2001. Its historic significance derives from its rarity: only a handful of canal tunnels were ever built in the United States.</p><br>
<p>Cincinnati City Hall is a registered historic building in Cincinnati, Ohio, listed in the National Register on December 11, 1972.</p><br>
<p>The main building comprises four and a half stories with a nine story clock tower. An optical trick known as forced perspective makes the building appear even larger than it actually is. As it becomes taller, its windows get smaller.</p><br>
<p>The building was constructed by the David Hummel company of Cincinnati using stone quarried in Wisconsin, Ohio, Missouri, and Indiana. Marble stairways and wainscoting originated in Italy and Tennessee, while granite columns were obtained from Vermont. Stained glass windows were installed which depict Cincinnatus and illustrate Cincinnati&#39;s early history. A granite statue of Jesus was contributed by the Archdiocese of Cincinnati in 1864 and displayed in the alcove on the south side of the building until 2003.</p><br>
<p>The first city hall was built on this site in 1852 and was demolished in 1888 to make way for the current structure. Construction costs for the building totaled $1,610,000 of which $54,000 was paid to Samuel Hannaford as architect and construction superintendent.</p><br>
<p>"Cincinnatis City Hall represents the prevailing architectural tastes at the time of its construction and the influence of H. H. Richardson on its designer, Samuel Hannaford. Richardsons winning design for the Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce building was executed in the 1880s; however, the buildings demolition in 1911 left City Hall the best remaining example of Richardson Romanesque in Cincinnati. Samuel Hannaford practiced from 1858 until 1897 and made a significant contribution to the architectural heritage of the Cincinnati area."</p><br>
<p>The building bears a striking resemblance to the city hall buildings in Minneapolis, Toronto, and Wellesley, Massachusetts, as well as the Greene County Courthouse in Xenia, Ohio.</p><br>
<p>The Cincinnati Enquirer Building is the former headquarters building for The Cincinnati Enquirer. Located on Vine Street in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, United States, the Enquirer Building was designed by the firm of Lockwood Greene and Company and completed in 1926.</p><br>
<p>Built primarily of limestone, and measuring fourteen stories tall, the Enquirer Building was built to house both commercial offices and publishing facilities. Lockwood Greene&#39;s architects designed the building in a mixture of architectural styles; among its most distinctive features include the first-floor storefronts, the recessed central main entrance, and marble stonework with a Christmas tree with bronze details.</p><br>
<p>The building is shown as the home of WKRP in the 1978-1982 television series WKRP in Cincinnati and its 1991-1993 sequel The New WKRP in Cincinnati. However, the building was referred to as the fictional Osgood R. Flimm Building.</p><br>
<p>Starting in 1975, the Enquirer Building received increased attention outside of the immediate Cincinnati area: in that year, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, due to its place in local history and due to its historically significant architecture. Four years later, the newspapers printing facilities moved to a new property at the intersection of Western Avenue and Liberty Street, and the offices moved to 312 Elm Street in 1992. Some changes had been made from the buildings original condition, but it was restored in 1982.</p><br>
<p>In 2015, the Cincinnati Enquirer Building was divided into two hotels, each containing over 100 rooms.</p><br>
<p>The Cincinnati Zoo Historic Structures are a collection of historically significant buildings at the Cincinnati Zoo in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 27, 1987.</p><br>
<p>The second oldest zoo in the United States, it opened to the public in September 1875. Significant for the antiquity and richness of its collections and for its efforts in the propagation and nurture of rare and endangered species, it was well known as the home of Martha, the last passenger pigeon.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Four zoo buildings were listed on the National Register in 1975 as the "Cincinnati Zoo District", although they were removed in 1999. This district comprised the Kemper Log Cabin (built in 1804 and moved to the zoo in 1912), the Aviary, the Monkey House, and the Elephant House. These buildings were the oldest existing structures in the Cincinnati Zoo complex at the time. Two of the buildings were separately included in the "Cincinnati Zoo Historic Structures" designation in 1987 and named a National Historic Landmark: the Monkey House and the Elephant House. Built of concrete and stone, the Monkey House had been constructed by 1880, along with the Aviary, although the Elephant House was built in 1902. Space for all of these animals has been a component of the zoo since its earliest years: when it first opened in 1875, its collection comprised the menagerie of Andrew Erkenbrecker, a prominent bird collector who desired to form the country&#39;s first zoological gardens. Besides a group of birds that he had collected, Erkenbrecker owned a group of mammals of all types, including multiple monkeys as well as an elephant that he had bought from a circus.</p><br>
<h3>Elephant House</h3><br>
<p>Equipped with minarets and a windowed dome, the Elephant House was built to evoke the Taj Mahal and a sense of contemporary India. This concrete structure measures 150 x in length and height respectively. In building such a structure, the zoo followed the pattern of many other zoos, which constructed animal houses in the styles of the countries whence the animals came, but the Elephant House was one of the last zoo buildings in the United States constructed with such a philosophy. Designed by architects Elzner and Anderson, it was placed atop the zoo&#39;s highest hill. Its original cost was $50,000, and in later years the zoo has expended further money on renovations.</p><br>
<h3>Reptile House</h3><br>
<p>Originally built as the Monkey House, the Reptile House is a round Moorish Revival building designed by James W. McLaughlin for use as the aviary. Its design centers around a large dome more than 40 ft high, with numerous windows and skylights that enable it to be lit by sunlight, in addition to Corinthian columns. Although it was expanded in 1922 by the construction of a veterinary hospital, the zoo arranged for an extensive remodelling to prepare it for the reptiles that were first placed within it in 1951. Zoo historians claim the Reptile House as the oldest zoo building anywhere in the United States. The original Aviary no longer stands, having been destroyed in the 1970s; a collection of gorilla exhibits occupies the site now. The Kemper Log Cabin is also gone, having been moved to Sharon Woods Village in Sharonville in January 1982.</p><br>
<p>The Ewenny River  is a small river in south Wales with a length of ten miles or sixteen kilometres. For most of its length it forms the border between the counties of the Vale of Glamorgan and Bridgend. It is a major tributary of the River Ogmore, which it joins over a mile upstream from the sea.</p><br>
<p>Ogmore Castle is sited on the river.</p><br>
<h2>Course</h2><br>
<p>The river rises to the north east of Bridgend town, in South Wales, where two minor rivers known as Ewenny Fach and Ewenny Fawr join. Ewenny Fach is considered a tributary of the Ewenny Fawr, which in turn is formed when three streams, Nant Canna, Nant Ciwc and Nant Crymlyn join. This branch of the river flows southeast, past the village of Pencoed and under the M4 Motorway until it is joined by the Ewenny Fach south of Junction 35 of the road. From here, the river turns southward and flows through the Ewenni Moor, past the village of Waterton. Waterton is the site of a large industrial estate, and a few miles of meandering river were straightened and diverted to prevent flooding. The river flows through the villages of Ewenny and Ogmore, before entering the River Ogmore estuary just below Ogmore Castle. One of its main tributaries is the Afon Alun, which flows west for a few miles, and converges with the Ewenny north of Ogmore.</p><br>
<h2>Fishing</h2><br>
<p>The river has very good grayling, and also sewin.</p><br>
<h2>Mouth</h2><br>
<p>The river joins the Ogmore near Ogmore Castle, which is south of the river. At the confluence, a series of stepping stones cross the river. However, these only cross the Ewenny river, and not the Ogmore.</p><br>
<p>The Žeimena River is a river in Aukštaitija, eastern Lithuania, and right tributary of Neris River. Žeimena begins in Labanoras Forest and at Lake Žeimenys. Žeimena flows to the south passing Kaltanėnai town, Švenčionėliai city, and Pabradė city. Its confluence with Neris is located near the border of Švenčionys and Vilnius districts. The main tributaries of Žeimena are Lakaja, Saria, Mera, Kiauna, Luknelė and Jusinė.</p><br>
<p>Žeimena is one of the cleanest rivers in Lithuania. Also, it is one of the main places of salmon&#39;s spawing. The length of Žeimena is an object of discussion because it originates in a large lakeland of Aukštaitija National Park. The lakeland has many lakes that are interconnected by various rivers and streams, so it is difficult to say which lake is the source of which river. Traditionally, Lake Žeimenys is considered to be the source of Žeimena.</p><br>

<p>The Clough Creek and Sand Ridge Archaeological District is a historic district composed of two archaeological sites in the southwestern part of the USA state of Ohio.</p><br>
<h2>Sites</h2><br>
<h3>Clough Creek</h3><br>
<p>The Clough Creek Site occupies an area of approximately 2 acre; although no archaeological excavation has been conducted there, it is believed to have been the site of a large prehistoric village.</p><br>
<h3>Sand Ridge</h3><br>
<p>The Sand Ridge Site lies about 0.3 mi away from the Clough Creek Site. Located along a prominent ridgeline to the west of the old Union Bridge along the road between Cincinnati and Batavia, it has long been known as a significant archaeological site. As early as the 1880s, many individuals frequently visited the ridge to collect artifacts from the surface, such as bones, pottery, and pieces of flint. The residents appear to have inhabited the site only seasonally, with autumn and winter being the most likely times of occupation. They appear to have been heavily dependent on fish for their food, as many fish bones have been discovered at Sand Ridge; among the most common types of fish were suckers, channel catfish, and freshwater drums.</p><br>
<h2>Excavation and conclusions</h2><br>
<p>On behalf of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, archaeologists investigated a midden at Sand Ridge in 1884. They were able to add a wide range of artifacts to the museum&#39;s collection, including a wide range of stone tools, bird and deer bones, and projectile points. In more recent years, Clough Creek has also attracted attention for the artifacts visible on its surface, including scrapers, blanks, and projectile points. According to archaeological estimates, some artifacts at the site may be buried as much as 5 ft below the surface.</p><br>
<p>Despite the distance between the two sites, they are believed to be closely related. This identification is based primarily on the pottery recovered, which resembles that of the Madisonville and State Line Sites. A distinctive feature of Sand Ridge is the presence of artifacts from two chronologically different cultures: the Fort Ancient village was apparently built on the site of an earlier Late Woodland occupation.</p><br>
<h2>Recognition</h2><br>
<p>In 1974, the Clough Creek and Sand Ridge Archaeological District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its information-yielding potential. In the community of Newtown to the east are several villages that have received a similar status: the Perin, Turpin, and Hahn Field Sites. Like Clough Creek and Sand Ridge, Turpin and Hahn Field were once Fort Ancient villages that were founded atop former Woodland period villages, while Perin Village and the related Odd Fellows&#39; Cemetery Mound are exclusively Woodland sites.</p><br>
<p>The Coca-Cola Bottling Plant is a historic manufacturing facility in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the 1930s in high Streamline Moderne style, it no longer produces beverages, but it has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>Bottling plant</h2><br>
<p>The Coca-Cola Company arranged for the construction of the present building in the Evanston neighborhood during the Great Depression, and construction was performed largely in 1937, although the building was not completed until the following year. The plant is constructed largely of Indiana Limestone with substantial amounts of glass block, and smaller amounts of metal are also present. Although the facade is two stories tall, the main manufacturing section is just one story; a basement underlies much of the building. Some of the architecture, including the little-changed lobby, employs Art Deco details; in conjunction with the general Streamline Moderne appearance, the Art Deco emphasizes a sense of modernism with few parallels in the Cincinnati area, especially because the style&#39;s application to an industrial facility was unusual. The company promoted its use of highly mechanized production equipment at this facility; its ability to produce 500 bottles each minute was highly touted.</p><br>
<h2>Post-bottling</h2><br>
<p>Coca-Cola no longer employs the building for beverage production; it was later converted for the use of F&W Publications, and Xavier University acquired the property in early 2002. Renovations quickly began, with extra space being used for offices and rented to Cincinnati Country Day School after one of its buildings collapsed. In June 2004, the university announced that a gift from wealthy alumni would be used to convert the building into an alumni center with space for conferences, banquets, and other types of meetings. Long before this time, the building had been granted exceptional recognition by the federal government: while still a manufacturing facility, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its historically significant architecture. Hundreds of locations in Cincinnati are listed on the National Register, but the bottling plant&#39;s status was exceptional due to its young age; it was only about forty years old when designated, and buildings younger than fifty years old can only qualify for designation in the most exceptional circumstances.</p><br>
<p>The College Hill Town Hall is a historic village hall in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built as village offices for College Hill when it was a separate community, the building was designed by a master architect, and it has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<p>Founded in 1813, College Hill incorporated in 1866. For its first twenty years, the village owned no public buildings; the present structure, built in 1886 and dedicated in January 1887, was the only such building ever owned by the village before its annexation into the city of Cincinnati. Such buildings were common in communities of the period, but as the only public building in College Hill, it is starkly different from the surrounding built environment. The architect was Samuel Hannaford, who had become famous a decade earlier as the designer of the grand Cincinnati Music Hall near downtown. In 1886, Hannaford was ending a period of sole proprietorship; just one year after the College Hill Town Hall was built, he began a partnership with two of his sons.</p><br>
<p>Built of brick on a stone foundation, the town hall is covered with an asphalt roof and features additional elements of brick and stone. A wide staircase permits entry through a large archway in the facade, which sits next to a four-story tower, within which a Belfry is placed. The building has an irregular plan, due partly to multiple locations at which elements of brick project from the walls. Rather than being of a single style, the town hall is an eclectic structure, mixing elements of the Greek Revival and Renaissance Revival styles. For example, various parts of the roof are disparate: some are hipped, while others rise to gables. A brick frieze with corbelling is placed near the top of the walls, while the cornice itself is formed of crafted metal. Indoors, the building is divided into rooms for numerous functions. In addition to the meeting room for the village council, the building has space for a community room with stage and for apartments in which the village&#39;s jailer could live.</p><br>
<p>In 1978, the College Hill Town Hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying both because of its place in the area&#39;s history and because of its historically significant architecture. It is one of dozens of Hannaford-designed buildings in Cincinnati and the suburbs to be listed on the National Register. Among the organizations using the building is a dance company, the Contemporary Dance Theater.</p><br>
<p>The Courtland Flats are an apartment building on Court Street in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. A brick building constructed in 1902, it was the first Second Renaissance Revival apartment building to be constructed in the city&#39;s downtown. Despite the presence of many Second Renaissance Revival elements, the building includes several details more typical of the First Renaissance Revival period, such as elaborate window decorations on the exterior, multi-piece pediments above the fourth-floor windows, and prominent pilasters.</p><br>
<p>The Courtlands first owner was Christopher Sandheger, one of Cincinnatis leading distillers of whiskey. During the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, Cincinnati produced more whiskey than any other city in the country, thus leading to great wealth for men such as Sandheger. In 1984, the Courtland Flats were recognized for their well-preserved historic architecture by being added to the National Register of Historic Places. Another apartment building on Court Street, known as one of the Alkemeyer Commercial Buildings, had been placed on the Register four years previously.</p><br>
<p>The George B. Cox House is a historic residence in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. An Italianate building constructed in 1894, this two-and-a-half story building was built as the home of leading Hamilton County politician George B. Cox.</p><br>
<p>Largely a self-made man, Cox began to support himself and his mother at age eight after his fathers death in 1861; within ten years, he entered politics, and at the age of twenty-four, he was elected to City Council. Before the age of thirty, he had laid the groundwork for political domination of the city, and his position as Cincinnatis political boss was firmly cemented by the late 1880s.</p><br>
<p>In 1894, Cox arranged for the construction of a new house, to be designed by leading Cincinnati architect Samuel Hannaford.</p><br>
<p>Coxs house was built near to the end of Samuel Hannafords career; in practice since 1858, he retired in 1897 at the age of sixty-two. During his career, he rose to the status of Cincinnatis leading architect, due to his responsibility for such buildings as the Cincinnati Music Hall. Many of his buildings, including the majority of the houses that he designed in Cincinnati, were constructed as the homes of wealthy or powerful members of the citys society; numerous rich and famous individuals of the Gilded Age found his style highly attractive.</p><br>
<p>Among the owners of Coxs house after his death has been a chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha, which used the building as their fraternity house, and the University of Cincinnati, which purchased the property in 1939 and converted it into a womens dormitory. In late 1973, the Cox House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, both because of its connection to Cox and because of its historically significant architecture. Seven years later, it became one of twenty houses included in a multiple property submission to the National Register of Hannaford-designed buildings in Cincinnati and surrounding portions of Hamilton County; it was one of the collection&#39;s few houses that was already listed on the Register.</p><br>
<p>In 2010, arrangements were made to transfer ownership of the property to the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, which announced plans to convert it into a branch library to serve the surrounding Clifton neighborhood. The library stated that the Cox House would replace a small storefront that previously served the Clifton branch.</p><br>
<p>The Jacob D. Cox House is a historic residence located on Gilman Avenue in the Mount Auburn neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. An Italianate structure built in 1880, His two-year service as president of the University of Cincinnati occurred during his residence at the house, which concluded upon his retirement to Oberlin, Ohio.</p><br>
<p>Cox&#39;s house is similar to many others constructed in Mount Auburn during the third quarter of the nineteenth century, at which time it was a suburban neighborhood. A two-story brick building, it features a rear gable and a hip roof over the main part of the house, plus various details of stone. Because of its historically distinctive architecture, and because of its connection to Cox, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</p><br>
<p>The Cummins School is a historic former school building in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1871 in the neighborhood of Walnut Hills, it was later used as a model for the construction of other city school buildings.</p><br>
<p>One of several Cincinnati school buildings designed by Samuel Hannaford, the Cummins School is a -story building. More than thirty years after the buildings construction, it was expanded by the addition of a small Neoclassical structure on its rear. The building as a whole was built in the Italianate style, similar to other Cincinnati schools built at the same time, such as the McKinley School on the citys east side.</p><br>
<p>The Cummins School was eventually used by Cincinnati Public Schools as a model for later construction, due to its useful and economical floor plan. Its history paralleled that of the Eighteenth District School in the Camp Washington neighborhood; also a three-story Italianate brick building designed by Hannaford, it was erected in 1882 and expanded in 1908 and 1916. Hannaford&#39;s company continued to design buildings for Cincinnati Public Schools into the early twentieth century, their strong reputation having been established by buildings such as Cummins.</p><br>
<h2>NRHP</h2><br>
<p>In 1986, the Cummins School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of its historically significant architecture. It joined dozens of other Hannaford designs in Hamilton County that had been listed on the National Register in 1980, including the Eighteenth District School. Five years later, the school was renovated at a cost of approximately $2,100,000. Today, it is used as an office building.</p><br>
<p>The Cuvier Press Club, located at 22 Garfield Place is a historic former house in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. It is also referred to locally as the Fechheimer Mansion and as of 2006 served as the headquarters location for Cincinnati-based firm LPK.</p><br>
<h2>Design and construction</h2><br>
<p>The 2-story stone mansion was originally owned by the Fechheimer family. Marcus Fechheimer commissioned Samuel Hannaford and Edwin Anderson to design the townhouse. It is reportedly the oldest surviving residence designed by Hannaford, who also designed many public facilities in the region including Music Hall, City Hall, and the Cincinnati Observatory. Two stories tall, the frontispiece possess many Neoclassical details, such as Corinthian columns and pilasters, as well as Corinthian details in the cornice, entablature, and pediment. The style is described as Italian Renaissance with a stone wall facade, Italian tile floor, and marble fireplaces. Many similar houses were built at the same time but have lost their architectural integrity; the Fechheimer House is significant partly because it retains so much of its original style and construction. When it was built, it was one of many residences on its street, but all others have since been destroyed.</p><br>
<h2>Non-residential uses</h2><br>
<p>In 1938, Cincinnati&#39;s Cuvier Press Club moved into the building from their former location on Opera Place.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on October 26, 1972. One year later, the building was acquired by the City of Cincinnati and re-opened as a Senior Citizens&#39; Center.</p><br>
<p>The building was purchased by advertising agency LPK in 2005 and a redesign was begun to conjoin the neighboring Butterfield Center into headquarters and meeting space for the agency.</p><br>
<p>The Stephen Decker Rowhouse is a historic multiple residence in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1889, Rated "outstanding" by an architectural survey in 1978, it is the only rowhouse of its type in Cincinnati, due to its well-preserved Victorian architecture.</p><br>
<p>In 1979, the Stephen Decker Rowhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its historically significant architecture, as had been recognized by the survey of the previous year. It was one of seventeen Columbia-Tusculum properties included in a multiple property submission related to that survey; most of the properties were buildings, but the Columbia Baptist and Fulton-Presbyterian Cemeteries were also included.</p><br>
<p>H. W. Derby Building is a registered historic building in Cincinnati, Ohio. The building was designed by architect Samuel Hannaford. It listed in the National Register on March 3, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The firm of H. W. Derby & Co. acted as a jobbing outlet "for such large eastern houses as Harpers and Appleton", operated the largest and most elaborate bookstore in the West, and was well known in the Ohio Valley. H. W. Derby had an extensive publishing business of law books, medical books, and "miscellaneous" publications, "his law book line being unrivaled in the West" and his works of history, biography and travels, "received a new impetus with the passage of the act establishing the Ohio School Library in 1853." This law, "which Derby had zealously promoted, provided a tax for the support of libraries in school districts throughout the state, and the books for these collections were largely supplied by Derby from the publications of Harpers (who in 1839 had secured a monopoly to supply the New York School District libraries), Appleton, Derby & Jackson, and his own house."</p><br>
<p>Hamilton & Rankin (John R. Hamiltons firm) designed the H. W. Derby Building on Third Street. H. W. Derby opened a New York gallery, the Institute of Fine Arts, at 625 Broadway, but "it is likely that this enterprise was a casualty of war" because a few years later he was exhibiting foreign paintings around the country "one of which, Dubufes "Prodigal Son," burned in Smith & Nixon&#39;s hall in Cincinnati. In the late 1870s he returned to Columbus, Ohio and after a few years again moved on to Cincinnati, where he erected an impressive business block, the Derby Building, which later burned."</p><br>
<p>The A.M. Detmer House is a historic residence in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the 1880s, it has been named a historic site as an example of the work of a prominent architect.</p><br>
<p>A.M. Detmer was a leading member of the firm of Warburg and Company, which was located at Sixth and Main Streets downtown; it did business as a "merchant tailor", serving high-end buyers of custom clothing. Detmer had the house built in 1885, choosing leading Cincinnati architect Samuel Hannaford to produce the design</p><br>
<p>Detmer&#39;s house is a brick building constructed on a stone foundation. Rather than exemplifying a single architectural style, the house is eclectic. Among its prominent components are a trio of parapets mixing the roles of gables and dormer windows, constructed in a Flemish Revival style; a porch with Doric columns underneath a pediment, constructed around the main entrance; and numerous corbelled chimneys. Two bays wide, the facade includes stringcourses of limestone as part of its Flemish Revival parapet, along with small finials; together with the chimneys and the steep hip roof, the parapets help to lend the house the appearance of height greater than its actual two and a half stories.</p><br>
<p>In 1980, the A.M. Detmer House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places; it qualified for inclusion due to its well-preserved historic architecture. Nearly 40 other properties in Cincinnati and other parts of Hamilton County, including 14 other houses, were added to the Register at the same time as part of a multiple property submission of buildings designed by Samuel Hannaford and/or his sons. The Detmer House is significantly newer than some of the houses included in this group, for the oldest of Hannaford&#39;s residential designs in the city was constructed in 1862.</p><br>
<p>The Doctors&#39; Building is a historic commercial structure in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States.</p><br>
<p>The Doctors Building was designed by the firm of Tietig and Lee, one of Cincinnatis leading architectural firms in the early twentieth century. although reinforced concrete was also employed in construction. Some additional elements are constructed of metal or marble. The building is topped with a mostly flat roof with a small penthouse.</p><br>
<p>In 1986, the Doctors Building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It qualified for the Register both because of its place in local history and because of its well-preserved historic architecture. Key to these two statuses was its place as the areas only large building constructed for physicians and as one of the most important buildings designed by Tietig and Lee.</p><br>
<p>The Domhoff Buildings are a pair of historic commercial buildings in the Northside neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Designed by architect W.W. Franklin, the two buildings are located on one corner of the junction of Hamilton and Chase Avenues, that neighborhood&#39;s most important intersection.</p><br>
<p>Charles Henry Domhoff was a manufacturing magnate in late nineteenth-century Cincinnati. After joining a firm known as Addy, Hall, and Company in 1871, a company that manufactured pig iron in the Cincinnati area, he became its senior partner in 1888. Seven years later, he branched out on his own, founding the Domhoff and Joyce Company to manufacture pig iron and coke. While a partner with the Addy Company, he purchased a lot on the corner of Hamilton and Chase Avenues and arranged for the construction of two commercial buildings on the site. Completed in 1893, the two buildings are built of brick with metal roofs and minor elements of stone and metal. The two four-story structures were erected adjacent to each other, with only a small service yard separating them; the streetside portions of the buildings have room for five businesses, while the upper floors are divided into seventeen apartments. Neither building fits clearly into any single architectural style: because they were erected at a time when the Italianate style was losing favor and the Queen Anne style was becoming more common, they display some elements of each style.</p><br>
<p>In 1980, the Domhoff Buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying for this distinction because of their well preserved historic architecture.</p><br>
<p>Eden Park Standpipe is an ornate historic standpipe standing on the high ground of Eden Park in Cincinnati, Ohio. The standpipe is a form of water tower common the late 19th century. It was listed in the National Register on March 3, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The standpipe, completed in 1894 by the firm of Cincinnati architect Samuel Hannaford, stands at 172 ft tall. It was built to provide sufficient water pressure for the neighborhood of Walnut Hills, Cincinnati. The standpipe held water pumped into it from the Ohio River by means of the neighboring Eden Park Station No. 7. Water flowed out of it into two 24 in and one 36 in mains. However, as the city grew ever outward and newer water towers were built, the old standpipe was rendered obsolete and it was discontinued from service in 1916. A public observation deck that once operated is no longer accessible to visitors.</p><br>
<p>A copper spire that adorned the turret was removed in 1943 for a war scrap drive. The structure is now used by the City as a communications tower.</p><br>
<p>The Eden Park Station No. 7 is a historic structure located in Eden Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the late nineteenth century as a significant part of the city water supply system, it was used for its original purpose for only a few decades. As a work of Cincinnati&#39;s most important architect, it has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Cincinnati city officials began to build the Eden Park Station in 1889, with construction overseen by the David Hummel Construction Company, but five years passed before it was completed. The station formed part of the city&#39;s water supply network, raising water from the nearby Ohio River and moving it into the Eden Park Standpipe, which was finished in the same year as the pumping station. When built, the station was able to move 16 e6USgal of water with Snyder and Holly pumps, but only for a few years did the network operate as designed. A new station in the East End opened in 1907 to replace the stations in Eden Park and on Front Street downtown; contamination in the nearby Deer Creek, which by this time had been converted into a sewer, was severe to the point that the nearby waters of the Ohio River were polluted to an unsafe extent. After years of little use, the station was restored to usefulness in 1939, as its tower was converted into a radio station for police purposes.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>City officials employed Samuel Hannaford as the architect for the Eden Park Station. he was favored as a residential architect by the metropolitan area&#39;s elites, and he had produced structures far from the Cincinnati metropolitan area, including the tall Vigo County Courthouse in Terre Haute, Indiana and the smaller Perry County Jail in faraway Pinckneyville, Illinois. Many of his functional buildings still standing in Cincinnati are eclectic in style; instead of insisting on a specific style or styles, Hannaford freely designed in many different styles popular in the late nineteenth century. The Eden Park Station is typical of these, exhibiting features of the Neoclassical, the Queen Anne, and the Romanesque Revival styles. Although the walls of the building and its associated chimney are brick, the building rests on a stone foundation, and the roof is tiled. Sandstone is employed for decorative arches placed underneath a Neoclassical pediment to form the frontispiece. The tallest parts of the station are four stories tall.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>In early 1980, the Eden Park Station was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture. It was one of dozens of Hannaford-designed buildings in Hamilton County listed on the Register together as a multiple property submission. Two of the buildings in the submission were related to the station: the Elsinore Arch, a castle-shaped structure near Eden Park housing valves for the water system, and the Eden Park Standpipe.</p><br>
<p>The William Edwards Farmhouse is a historic residence near Cincinnati in the village of Newtown, Ohio, United States. One of the area&#39;s leading early farmhouses, it has been designated a historic site.</p><br>
<p>In the early 19th century, New Jersey native Isaac Edwards purchased land in the Virginia Military District from other early residents; part of his new property comprised a farm in District Land Grant 427 with an extant log cabin. Here, adjacent to Isaacs own property, settled his son, William. Before long, the log cabin proved insufficient for his familys needs, so in 1840 Edwards arranged for the construction of a new brick structure. This building, the present house, was constructed with many elements of the stylish Greek Revival mode of architecture, but it also combined some non-Greek elements, such as the gambrel roof. Two and a half stories tall, the house was built of brick on a foundation of limestone.</p><br>
<p>For most of its history, the house has been a local landmark. Just forty years after it was built, the 1881 History of Hamilton County highlighted it and described it as a mansion. Nearly a century later, architectural historians praised it as being one of the best local examples of early agricultural architecture in Anderson Township. In recognition of the historic importance of its architecture, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in late 1989, along with a single outbuilding. It is one of six National Register-listed places in the vicinity of Newtown, along with the Cyrus Broadwell House, the Hahn Field Archeological District, the Harrison-Landers House, the Odd Fellows&#39; Cemetery Mound, and the Perin Village Site.</p><br>
<p>The Eighteen Mile House is a historic house near the city of Harrison in western Hamilton County, Ohio, United States. its construction date is unknown: some hold it to have been erected in 1800,</p><br>
<p>Constructed of brick, the two-and-one-half-story house is covered by a tin roof. Among its most distinctive elements are the gables on the ends, the interior chimneys that rise from above these gables, and a two-story porch on the western front. It was originally erected near a gate on the toll road between Cincinnati and Brookville, Indiana; its name is derived from its location, approximately eighteen miles from Cincinnati in the city&#39;s early years. Besides serving its purpose as a tavern and thus an inn, the Eighteen Mile House operated as a post office in its first years of existence. As time passed, the house was modified at an unknown date under the supervision of an unknown individual, being expanded on its northern side.</p><br>
<p>During the middle of the nineteenth century, the Civil War directly affected the Eighteen Mile House twice. According to local legend, Abraham Lincoln stayed in the house at least once, while Morgans Raiders attacked the property in the middle of 1863. As time passed, the house became more and more a survivor of old times, and for this reason it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. It qualified for the Register both because of its distinctive historic architecture and because of its place in Ohios history.</p><br>
