<p>Brocksford Hall is a country house about one mile  east of Doveridge village, in the south west corner of Derbyshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in 1893 for Charles William Jervis Smith and designed by the Chester architectural practice of Douglas and Fordham. From 1942-94 it was used as an independent preparatory boarding school. The headmaster of Birkdale School, Mr John Gibson Roberts, moved Birkdale pupils evacuated to Derbyshire during the Second World War into Brocksford Hall after the war. Birkdale continued at Oakbrook under another headmaster. Magfern Estates purchased the hall and 35 acre of the estate in 1994. The hall and original outbuildings were converted into private apartments and houses. The later additional outbuildings for the school were demolished.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in Jacobethan style and constructed in Ruabon red brick with much blue brick diapering and Hollington stone dressings. It was the last house designed by Douglas on such a large scale.</p><br>
<p>SM U-41&#39; was one of the 329 submarines serving in the Imperial German Navy in World War I. U-41 engaged in naval warfare and took part in the First Battle of the Atlantic.</p><br>
<h2>Design</h2><br>
<p>German Type U 31 submarines were double-hulled ocean-going submarines similar to Type 23 and Type 27 subs in dimensions and differed only slightly in propulsion and speed. They were considered very good high sea boats with average manoeuvrability and good surface steering.</p><br>
<p>U-41 had an overall length of 64.70 m, her pressure hull was 52.36 m long. The boat&#39;s beam was 6.32 m (o/a), while the pressure hull measured 4.05 m. Type 31s had a draught of 3.56 m with a total height of 7.68 -. The boats displaced a total of 971 t; 685 t when surfaced and 878 t when submerged.</p><br>
<p>U-41 was fitted with two Germania 6-cylinder two-stroke diesel engines with a total of 1,850 PS for use on the surface and two Siemens-Schuckert double-acting electric motors with a total of 1,200 PS for underwater use. These engines powered two shafts each with a 1.60 m propeller, which gave the boat a top surface speed of 16.4 kn, and 9.7 kn when submerged. Cruising range was 8,790 nmi at 8 kn on the surface, and 80 nmi at 5 kn under water. Diving depth was 50 m.</p><br>
<p>The U-boat was armed with four 50 cm torpedo tubes, two fitted in the bow and two in the stern, and carried 6 torpedoes. Additionally U-41 was equipped in 1915 with one 8.8 cm Uk L/30 deck gun.</p><br>
<p>The boat&#39;s complement was 4 officers and 31 enlisted.</p><br>
<h2>Fate</h2><br>
<p>U-41 was sunk by British Q-ship on 24 September 1915 in the Second Baralong Incident. At this stage in the war, U-boat commanders were under orders to scrupulously observe the rules of war (the "cruiser rules"). After spotting merchant targets, submarines surfaced nearby, boarded the ships, and searched for contraband. This prevented the sinking of neutral vessels, but exposed the submarines to great risk.</p><br>
<h2>SS Urbino</h2><br>
<p>After stopping merchantman Urbino, U-41 sent a boarding party aboard to inspect the cargo. After finding war material on board, the Germans put the merchant crew off the ship in the lifeboats. U-41 was in the process of sinking Urbino with gunfire when (in the guise of the American-flagged merchantman Baralong) arrived on the scene, flying an American flag. When U-41 approached, Wyandra, fired on and sank the U-boat without striking the American flag. This was a violation of the rules of war; while the use of a False Flag was allowed, it was required that a belligerent identify itself before initiating hostilities.</p><br>
<p>The event generated widespread outrage in Germany, especially among Kriegsmarine officers. The sinking was also commemorated in a propaganda medal designed by the German medallist Karl Goetz.</p><br>
<h2>Summary of raiding history</h2><br>
<p>The Gorgas–Manly Historic District is a historic district that includes 12 acre and eight buildings on the campus of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The other survivors were the President&#39;s Mansion and the Old Observatory, plus a few faculty residences.</p><br>
<p>Woods Hall was the first building constructed following the American Civil War. The remaining five buildings, Clark, Manly, Garland, Tuomey and Barnard Halls, represent campus construction during the economic recovery that followed the end of the Reconstruction era.</p><br>
<p>The construction of Manly, Clark, Garland, and other buildings was financed by the sale of a large portion of 46,800 acre of land given by the United States Congress to the University as repayment "for the fiery ruin brought by Federal troops in 1865."</p><br>
<h2>The district</h2><br>
<h3>Gorgas House</h3><br>
<p>An example of the Greek Revival style, the Gorgas House was the first building built on the campus of the university. Designed by William Nichols, designer of the original campus and Tuscaloosa&#39;s Old Alabama State Capitol, it was completed in 1829, prior to the opening of the campus. The main facade, minus the portico, reflects the continuing influence of the Federal style. Initially used as a guest house for visitors and professors and as a dining hall for students, it was converted to use as a faculty residence in 1847. The house gained its current name from Josiah Gorgas, the seventh University of Alabama president. Ill health forced him to resign as president and the trustees gave him the house to retire to with his family. The Alabama legislature designated the house as a memorial to the Gorgas family in 1944 and today it is included among the University of Alabama Museums.</p><br>
<h3>Little Round House</h3><br>
<p>This small octagonal building with crenelations originally served as the guard house of the university.</p><br>
<p>It was completed in 1860 and reflected the conversion of the university into a military campus. The conversion occurred on February 23, 1860, by an act of the Alabama legislature. As tensions between North and South escalated, the request for the transition came from the university president of the time, Landon Garland. Ironically, the Little Round House, despite its military associations, was one of the few structures that remained after Federal troops burned the campus. When the university reopened its doors in 1871 the building was used as a physician&#39;s office. A few years later, while in a deteriorated condition, the building was considered for demolition. It was saved by the university trustees and converted into a records repository. It became known as Jasons Shrine during the 1930s, while being used by the Jasons, a men’s honor society. 1990 saw the structure converted into a memorial for all of the honor societies.</p><br>
<h3>Woods Hall</h3><br>
<p>Woods Hall was the first new building on campus following the Civil War. Constructed from 1867 to 1868, the four-story brick structure was built with a Gothic Revival arcade on the ground floor, end facades in the Gothic Revival style with a crenelated roof, and cast iron galleries on the central upper floors. Initially known simply as "the barracks," it was used as a dormitory. It also had a dining hall and classrooms on the ground floor. It remained a dormitory until 1961, when it was converted for use by the Department of Art and Art History.</p><br>
<p>The area between Woods Hall on the one side and Woods, Clark, and Manly on the other side is known as Woods Quad.</p><br>
<h3>Clark Hall</h3><br>
<p>Built in 1884, the Gothic Revival-style Clark Hall was constructed on the site of the old Lyceum, destroyed during the Civil War. Clark was originally designed as an all-purpose building with a library, reading rooms, chapel, and a large public meeting room, which served as "the great public hall of the University." By 1910 the building was beginning to deteriorate and the brick walls were near collapse by the late 1940s, due to the heavy roof. The hall was saved by the erection of an interior steel frame within the building, preserving it for future generations. The building was restored again in the 1980s. It was named for Willis G. Clark, a university trustee.</p><br>
<p>Clark Hall contains the main office space for the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as a dance studio (currently overseen by Cornelius Carter).</p><br>
<h3>Manly Hall</h3><br>
<p>Manly Hall is a -story Gothic Revival structure in red brick. Similar in design to Clark Hall, it was finished in 1885. Originally built as a dormitory, it now houses the Department of Religious Studies, the Department of Women&#39;s Studies, offices of the English department, and the office of the literary magazine Black Warrior Review. It was named in honor of Basil Manly, the second university president.</p><br>
<h3>Garland Hall</h3><br>
<p>The three-story Garland Hall is another Gothic Revival–style building on campus, built in 1887 to house a dormitory and the first incarnation of the Alabama Museum of Natural History. It is the "counterpart" of Manly Hall, and today houses the Sarah Moody Gallery of Art.</p><br>
<h3>Tuomey Hall</h3><br>
<p>The -story Tuomey Hall, now known as the Blount Undergraduate Initiative Tuomey Academic House, was completed in 1889. Built as a laboratory for the Department of Chemistry, it was named in honor of Michael Tuomey, state geologist and professor. Toumey Hall was previously the home of Army ROTC at the University of Alabama.</p><br>
<h3>Barnard Hall</h3><br>
<p>The -story Barnard Hall, now known as Oliver-Barnard Hall, was completed in 1889. Built as a laboratory and gymnasium, it now houses offices and classrooms for the College of Arts and Sciences. It was named for scientist and professor, Frederick A. P. Barnard. It was rededicated as Oliver-Barnard Hall in 2000 in honor of John T. Oliver Jr., trustee emeritus. Barnard Hall was previously the home of Air Force ROTC at the University of Alabama.</p><br>
<p>Weekapaug Inn is a historic inn at 25 Spray Rock Road in Westerly, Rhode Island.</p><br>
<p>In 1899 Phoebe and Frederick C. Buffum built the original Weekapaug Inn. The inn was built on a strip of land between the Quonochontaug Pond and the Atlantic Ocean in the community of Weekapaug, Rhode Island. In 1938 the original Weekapaug Inn was destroyed by the famous hurricane of that year, however the following year they rebuilt the inn, designed by Ralph Doane, across the pond and it reopened in 1939. The Buffum family ran the inn for the next 108 years until it closed for renovations in 2007. Also that year, the Weekapaug Inn was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>In 2010 Weekapaug Rhode Island residents Langdon Wheeler and Charles Royce purchased the property with plans to restore the inn while keeping it as closely identical to the original inn as possible. The Weekapaug Inn is due to reopen on October 7, 2012.</p><br>
<p>The Weekapaug Inn originally had 67 rooms which were converted to 27 guest rooms and 4 Signature Suites and much of the furniture and furnishings from the original inn have been saved, restored, and reused. The inn will now offer seasonal recreation such as boating, fishing, bocce ball, shuffleboard, and rumored to be planning classic New England clam bakes during summer seasons. There is also a naturalist, Westerly RI resident Mark Bullinger, working with the inn leading and organizing recreation activities and information on surrounding areas and wildlife.</p><br>
<p>The Fabius Village Historic District in Fabius, New York is a 70 acre historic district that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. It includes 57 contributing buildings, 2 contributing sites, 2 contributing structures, and 4 contributing objects.</p><br>

<p>The Christopher Rhodes Greene House is a historic house at 2 Potter Court in Coventry, Rhode Island. The 2-1/2 story house, with a matching stable, was designed by the Providence firm of Stone & Carpenter, and built in 1883 for Christopher Rhodes Greene, one of the owners of the Clyde Bleach and Print Works, located about 1 mi away on the Pawtuxet River. The house features the irregular massing with numerous projections and window shapes and sizes, and a wraparaound porch with porte-cochere. The exterior is sheathed predominantly in wood clapboards on the lower level, and shingles cut in a variety of shapes on the upper levels. The main, south-facing, gable peak has more elaborate siding, along with false half-timbering and a medallion.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The Earnscliffe Woolen-Paragon Worsted Company Mill Complex  is a historic mill at 25 and 39 Manton Avenue in Providence, Rhode Island. It consists of a grouping of eleven industrial buildings on 4.4 acre in the Olneyville neighborhood of Providence, on the banks of the Woonasquatucket River. The buildings were built between 1898 and about 1939. Building 1, the oldest building, began in 1898 as a two-story rectangular brick structure with a three-story tower and a monitor roof, but was expanded over the years, obscuring both the tower and the monitor. The complex was begun by the Earnscliff Woolen Company, which failed in 1909. The Paragon Worsted Company purchased the property, and operated on the premises until 1960, when the company closed the mill.</p><br>
<p>The mill was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>Little York Pavilion, also known as Dwyer Memorial County Park, Main Pavilion, is an historic trolley park pavilion located at Preble in Cortland County, New York. It was built about 1906, with later additions and modifications, and is a two story Stick/Eastlake style structure, rectangular at the core, with surrounding verandahs and a jutting pavilion at each corner. The central hip-roofed section contains a single large room at each level.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Pavilion was originally designed as part of a resort destination by the Cortland Traction Company. Little York Lake provided the only resort area between Binghamton and Syracuse, NY. Besides the Pavilion the park housed several boathouses, an observation deck above a water tower, and amusement rides. The Pavilion itself housed a restaurant on the ground floor and a dance hall on the second floor.</p><br>
<p>In 1932, the New York Power Corporation, successor to the Cortland County Traction Company, abandoned the park. Attempted revivals met with little success. At the urging of the Little York Garden Club in the late 1930s, the County Board of Supervisors eventually purchased the property. But not until 1951, under County Highway Superintendent William Dwyer, were improvements seriously begun.</p><br>
<p>Since 1972 the Pavilion has been home to the Cortland Repertory Theatre, a summer performing company.</p><br>
<p>The building has undergone many changes over the years. The most prominent addition was in 1961, when a slate-roofed stone restroom facility was added on the north side. A large brick chimney occupies the center of the east wall; a similar one on the north was removed in 1973. Later alterations include the enclosure of the ten foot wide verandahs on the north side to accommodate kitchen facilities and dressing rooms for the theatre. The roof of the pavilion was originally surfaced with cedar shingles and was edged with white electric lights. Both roof and lighting were removed long ago, and the present roof is a combination of tin and asphalt shingles. Elsewhere, alterations have been carried out more in sympathy with the original design: stairways, porch rails and flooring have been rebuilt, fire doors installed, and wooden steps replaced with concrete.</p><br>
<p>Blue Lake  is a karst lake located near Imotski in southern Croatia. Like the nearby Red Lake, it lies in a deep sinkhole possibly formed by the collapse of an enormous underground cave. The total depth from the upper rim is around 220 meters, while water depth varies with season. In spring, when the snow from surrounding mountains melts, it can reach 90 m, and in 1914 it reached 114 m, overflowing the southern rim. The lake is a popular destination for hiking and sight-seeing.</p><br>
<p>Maximum dimensions of the lake are around 800×500 m, but they significantly vary due to big changes in the water level. At the end of the summer the lake may completely disappear.</p><br>
<p>In 1907 a road was built descending to the lake. In 1942, an earthquake caused a large landfall resulting in reduction of the lake&#39;s depth.</p><br>
<p>Eston Nab is a local landmark to those who live along the River Tees, in north-east England.</p><br>
<p>A nab is a rocky promontory, or outcrop, and Eston Nab, marking the highest point – at 242 m – on the escarpment which forms Eston Hills, appears as a clear sandstone cliff on the northernmost edge of Eston Moor. It overlooks the town of Eston, which is part of Redcar and Cleveland, and can be seen from beyond Hartlepool on the northern side of Tees Bay.</p><br>
<p>It is the site of Bronze Age burial mounds and an Iron Age hill fort. However, regardless of all its history, to local people, the name of Eston Nab is synonymous with the monument that stands there. When families went out for a walk together – the monument at Eston Nab was the destination of choice.</p><br>
<h2>Historical site</h2><br>
<p>Remains from the Bronze Age have been found, such as flint arrowheads, possibly date back to between 6000 and 4000 BC.</p><br>
<p>Frank Elgee, curator of the Dorman Museum, Middlesbrough, in 1927, uncovered parts of an earthenware cremation urn, together with burnt bone and flint. These possibly dated from 1800 BC.</p><br>
<p>There was a substantial Iron Age hill fort at Eston Nab. Boulder walls and ditches are still visible even though they were built in around 700 BC.</p><br>
<p>Eston Hills, of which it is the highest point, had a warren of cavernous tunnels carved into them, to create the ironstone mines that closed in 1949. They formed the original basis for the iron and steel industry on the River Tees and the building of Middlesbrough. Eston Nab featured in the film, A Century in Stone, a film about the Eston mines. The monument was shown as it was in the early 19th century.</p><br>
<p>In early 2014, for the sum of £15,000, Eston Nab was purchased from its private owner by a voluntary organisation known as the Friends of Eston Hills. The organisation counts as a member Craig Hornby, a local film-maker whose best-known work, A Century in Stone, tells the story of iron-stone mining in Eston Hills. The property acquired includes land around the area of the monument, between the privately owned Bauer Teesside site and Eston Moor, which is already in public hands.</p><br>
<h3>Monument</h3><br>
<p>The monument is in the form of a pillar made of sandstone bricks. It was originally built as a lookout tower and beacon to warn of invasion during the Napoleonic Wars in the early 19th century. With the advent of ironstone mining in Eston Hills, the beacon was used as a house and survived until 1956. It was then demolished and later rebuilt into its present form.</p><br>
<p>A plaque on the side of the monument reads:</p><br>
<h2>Wildlife and recreation</h2><br>
<p>At only 242 m above sea level at its highest point, Eston Nab is classed as lowland heath.</p><br>
<p>Wildlife includes, lapwing, curlew, green woodpecker and linnet. There are various butterflies and dragonflies.</p><br>
<p>The area around Eston Nab is managed – for its wildlife, archaeology and amenity. Many people use the Hills for walking, cycling and horse riding. There are several self-guided walk leaflets, which take in points of interest. These are available at the Flatts Lane Woodland Country Park Visitor Centre, Normanby.</p><br>
<p>The Eston Hills provide access to the wider countryside via the public right of way network. The land owned or managed by the Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council is mostly bordered by farmland. Eston Nab commands an excellent view of the nearby Roseberry Topping, which stands higher at 320 m.</p><br>
<h2>Bauer Teesside</h2><br>
<p>Eston Nab is also used by Bauer Teesside as a site for digital radio masts – broadcasting local radio from this convenient high spot. The advent of these communication towers was controversial when they were first installed, because the monument at Eston Nab, and the skyline that it was part of, had become such a familiar symbol of the area. As part of the mast installation a road was extended to the summit of the Nab.</p><br>
<p>The Skaneateles Historic District is a 17 acre historic district in the village of Skaneateles, New York that dates back to 1796, includes one building from the 20th century, but is otherwise composed of 19th-century residences and commercial buildings. It includes 59 contributing buildings and one contributing site &ndash; Thayer Park along Skaneateles Lake, &ndash; as well as five non-contributing structures. The district runs along both sides of East Genesee Street  from Jordan Street to Onondaga Street , and includes the core of Skaneateles&#39; historic downtown area, which was rebuilt in 1836 after being almost totally destroyed by fire in 1835. Also included are properties on Jordan Street up to the intersection of Fennell Street, and the stone mill property on Fennell Street.</p><br>
<p>Architects whose work is represented in the district include Stanford White ("The Boulders", 100 East Genesee Street, 1881) and Horatio Nelson White (St. James&#39; Episcopal Church, 94 East Genesee Street, 1873). The Greek Revival, Federal, Italianate and Romanesque Revival styles are represented within the district, which is "an intact, cohesive collection of commercial and residential buildings located on a picturesque, tree-lined street...."</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<p>The Manlius Village Historic District is a 15 acre historic district on the east side of the village of Manlius, in the town of Manlius, New York, about 9.5 miles from the downtown of Syracuse.</p><br>
<p>The village was bypassed by later transportation—Genesee Street/Route 5 which took a flatter course to the north, the Erie Canal which generated growth of Syracuse, railroads, and the NYS Thruway in the 1950s—and "thus retains much of the flavor of the turnpike era to which this small Onondaga County village owes its existence."</p><br>
<p>The historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The district includes four churches and one commercial block building on the western edge of the district. "The district does not include the downtown commercial area of Manlius because a number of fires, remodellings, and demolitions have infringed on its visual continuity."</p><br>
<p>Most of the 50 contributing buildings in the district are single family homes. Most of the buildings are on Seneca Street, part of the old Seneca Turnpike, or one block north on Pleasant Street.</p><br>
<p>The district, which comprises a three-block area, includes several buildings dating from approximately 1813, when the village of Manlius was incorporated, as well as buildings constructed later in the 19th century and a few 20th-century buildings. It includes Greek Revival and Italianate architectural styles.</p><br>
<p>A first wave of construction in the village was around its incorporation in 1813. The Christ Episcopal Church, Smith Hall, and other buildings that still survive in the district were built during that time. Smith Hall, built during 1813-16, was expanded in 1824 to include a third floor meeting room for the Masons. The "lodge room still has murals depicting symbolic Masonic scenes; these are said to have been painted early in the nineteenth century by an itinerant painter by the name of Fish. The paintings were later covered by wallpaper and were rediscovered in 1902." The buildings at 105 North Street and 112 Franklin Street, both pictured, are residential examples of structures built during the first wave of construction, and are also two of the five buildings in the district to be adorned with pilasters.</p><br>
<p>Greek Revival was a predominant architectural style in a second wave of building in the 1830s. 311 Pleasant Street, pictured, is an example of this style in a residential structure. Later construction included the bandstand in Academy Park on Seneca Street in the 1880s and First Baptist Church on North Street in 1929, both pictured.</p><br>

<p>Saighton Grange originated as a monastic grange. It was later converted into a country house and, as of 2013, the building is used as a school . It is located in Saighton, Cheshire, England. The only surviving part of the monastic grange is the gatehouse, which is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade I listed building, and is one of only two surviving monastic manorial buildings in Cheshire, the other being Ince Manor. The rest of the building is listed at Grade II, as is its chapel.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The manor of Saighton was held by the secular canons of St Werburgh in Chester before the Norman conquest. The site was given a licence to crenellate in 1399, and this was confirmed in 1410, The manor house was built about 1489 for Simon Ripley, Abbot of St Werburgh&#39;s. Following the dissolution of the monasteries the manor passed through several hands and in time the house was separated from the manor. In the 1840s the house was bought by the 2nd Marquess of Westminster.</p><br>
<p>The monastic buildings, other than the gatehouse, were demolished in 1861 and were replaced by a house designed by Edward Hodkinson for the 2nd Marquess of Westminster. Alterations were made to the house in about 1870–72 and again in 1894–96 by the Chester architect John Douglas for the 1st Duke of Westminster. In the 1880s the building was occupied by Earl Grosvenor. The buildings were converted into a school in 1977 and it now forms Abbey Gate College, which is an independent coeducational school for pupils aged 4–18.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<h3>Gatehouse</h3><br>
<p>This dates from 1490, and was built in front of an earlier wide-arched vehicular entry. It is constructed in red sandstone and has three storeys, with string courses between the storeys. It is surmounted by a crenellated parapet. The lower 1½ storeys of the front aspect are occupied by a pointed arch, above which are three narrow windows. In the upper storey are two four-light mullioned windows. On the left side is a three-light oriel window with a four-light mullioned window above, and in the merlon above this is a niche containing a statue. On the right side is a blocked arch in the ground floor, a single-light window above it and a four-light mullioned window in the top storey. In the angle between the gateway and the newer building, on the left, is a square turret that is taller than the rest of the gatehouse.</p><br>
<h3>House</h3><br>
<p>The rest of the house is also built in red sandstone and it has a tiled roof. The main wing has two storeys and flanks the gatehouse, with two bays to its left and three bays to the right. It is in Tudor style with battlements and stepped gables. The right wing also has two storeys with a three-storey cross wing.</p><br>
<h3>Chapel</h3><br>
<p>The chapel was built in about 1870 in red sandstone with a tiled roof. It is a rectangular building with gables. On one of the gables is an open bellcote with one bell under a square spire. There are four windows containing stained glass; three of these date from the late 19th century, the other from the late 20th century.</p><br>
<h2>Grounds</h2><br>
<p>In the grounds are part of the medieval boundary wall which is built of sandstone rubble. This stands on bedrock on the edge of a rock cutting and is thought to have been a form of light fortification. The walls are listed Grade II. The grounds consist of formal gardens, surrounded by informal parkland. The gardens are open occasionally under the National Garden Scheme.</p><br>
<p>The Louis Will House is a "high-style" Queen Anne style house at 714 N. McBride St. in Syracuse, New York. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 10, 2009.</p><br>
<p>It was the home of Louis Will, Progressive Party mayor of Syracuse during 1914-16. He was owner of a candle-making business.</p><br>
<p>The exterior of the house is built of brick on a sandstone foundation. Terra-cotta features decorate various parts of the house. A porch with turned wood elements wraps from the west facing front of the house around the south side. The most significant feature of the house is its stained glass windows, which are believed to be early works of the Tiffany studios in New York City.</p><br>
<p>Oddly, the architect is unknown, despite original plans for the house being available.</p><br>
<p>It faces on McBride Park and stands out as the pre-eminent home of the area.</p><br>
<p>In May 1775 the first recorded religious service took place in Fort Boonesborough. The Tates Creek Baptist Church organized in 1783 and met in a stone building around Shallow Ford until it burned down around 1850. Some of the members gave some land to the church, and the present building now occupied was completed in 1851. In January 1786, Virginia passed the first act favoring the purposed separation of Kentucky from Virginia. In September 1786, a convention was held in Danville to determine if it was expedient to constitute Kentucky as a state. Several members of this church served as delegates to this convention. Tates Creek Baptist Church is listed on the National Register of Historical Places.</p><br>
<h2>Rev. Andrew Tribble</h2><br>
<p>The founding pastor of the Tates Creek Baptist Church, now on Boonesborough Road, Tribble was a friend of Thomas Jefferson and may have helped shape his political philosophy.</p><br>
<p>The monument, placed by the North Carolina-based Baptist Church Preservation Society, highlights the persecution of Tribble and other Baptists suffered in colonial Virginia, when only members of the Anglican clergy were allowed to preach.</p><br>
<p>The Baptists&#39; petitions are said to have gained a receptive hearing from such founding fathers as George Washington, Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson, and played a role in the statute of religious freedom drafted by Jefferson and adopted by Virginia after the colonies gained independence.</p><br>
<p>While in Virginia, Tribble pastored a church near Thomas Jeffersons estate, Monticello. Records indicate that Jefferson sometimes attended the churchs services and at least once a business session. About 10 years before the Revolution, the future president invited Tribble home for Sunday dinner, after which the preacher asked Jefferson what he thought of the denomination&#39;s democratic form of government.</p><br>
<p>All church members, including men, women and children, had equal votes.</p><br>
<p>Jefferson, who later drafted the Declaration of Independence, is said to have remarked it was "the only form of pure democracy that then existed in the world" and "it would be the best plan of government for the American colonies."</p><br>
<p>According to Tates Creek church historian Edith Ratliff, Tribble came to Madison County from Virginia and helped found the church between 1783 and 1785, and organized the church in 1786.</p><br>
<p>According to stories handed down over the years, Tribble often made mention of Jefferson in his sermons, Ratliff said.</p><br>
<p>Tates Creek Baptist Church originally was located at Shallow Ford, a rural site between Tates and Jacks creeks. Among its members was Green Clay, father of Cassius Clay, James Estill and William Irvine. At least three, and possibly all, of Madison Countys five delegates to Kentuckys first constitutional convention in 1786 were members of Tates Creek Baptist Church, according to Ratliff&#39;s history of the congregation.</p><br>
<p>The church&#39;s first building burned in 1850 and was rebuilt as a brick structure at its current site on Boonesborough Road in 1851. A second wing, patterned after the original, was added in 2000.</p><br>
<p>Tates Creek Baptist&#39;s minutes indicate it was the parent church to both First Baptist churches in Richmond, as well as Baptist churches in Waco, on Red House Road and on Stoney Run Creek.</p><br>
<p>Tribble was Tates Creek Baptist&#39;s pastor until 1819. He died in 1821 and is buried off Colonel Road, south of the church.</p><br>
<p>In addition to erecting the monument, the preservation society also did restorative work on the stone wall that surrounds Tribble&#39;s grave site, said local historian James Neale, a descendant of Tribble.</p><br>

<p>The Canfield Island Site, also known as Archeological Site 36LY37, is an archaeological site in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, United States. Located on Canfield Island in the West Branch Susquehanna River, the site lies east of the city of Williamsport in Loyalsock Township. It is believed to have been inhabited by prehistoric Native Americans for thousands of years, with the oldest discoveries dating back to more than one millennium before Christ.</p><br>
<h2>Geology</h2><br>
<p>Canfield Island is an artificial island formed by the digging of a canal near the side of the West Branch Susquehanna in the early twentieth century; today, this canal forms the northern half of the island&#39;s shoreline, and the West Branch forms the southern half. Much of the island has been cultivated during the historical period, but forests today cover a significant portion of the island. It has frequently received deposits from the West Branch. The island has a total area of 21 acre.</p><br>
<h2>Archaeological investigation</h2><br>
<p>The island was first revealed to be a potential archaeological site as a result of a preliminary investigation performed by an exploratory group of members of the Society for Pennsylvania Archaeology who first visited the island in 1958. Beginning in 1960 and continuing periodically through 1980, a series of excavations yielded artifacts to a depth of 15 m below the surface,</p><br>
<p>Excavations yielded discoveries from a set of phases that was more complete than could be found at most comparable Pennsylvania sites. While ceramics are rare at the site, the presence of charcoal from a wide range of phases has provided a basis for dating charcoal found at many other sites in the state. Another significant discovery was a set of massive hearths amid large numbers of fishing nets, which has led to the proposal that Canfield Island was a major fishery.</p><br>
<h2>Conclusions</h2><br>
<p>Archaeological investigations have concluded that Canfield Island was inhabited during the Late Archaic period (approximately 3,000 years BP) and a fragment found at the lowest point of investigation, while it cannot be dated conclusively, may have originated in the Early Archaic period. Various phases of the Woodland period appear at the site, and evidence exists of occupation by the Susquehannock, who still inhabited eastern Pennsylvania after the arrival of Europeans in the region.</p><br>
<h2>Recognition</h2><br>
<p>In 1982, Canfield Island was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of the amount of information it had yielded and because of its potential to yield even more information. The site is today part of Riverfront Park, a Loyalsock Township park that includes an archaeology-themed trail on the island. Since 2003, local Native Americans have held an annual pow-wow on the island.</p><br>
<p>Eikeren or Eikern is a long and deep lake in the municipalities of Hof in the county of Vestfold and Øvre Eiker in the county of Buskerud, Norway. It is the largest lake in Vestfold.</p><br>
<p>At the eastern end of Vestfold is the village of Eidsfoss. In this area, water flows into Lake Eikeren from the Bergsvann, Vikevann, Haugestadvann and Hillestadvann. Lake Eikeren also receives waterflow from the Hakavikelva and Steinbruelva Rivers.</p><br>
<p>In the western part, Eikeren comes together with the Fiskumvannet in a narrow, strait known as Sundet. Here water flows into Lake Fiskum, located at the top of Eikernvassdraget. Through this strait, water flows at an average of 7 m3 per second. From Lake Fiskum, water runs out into Vestfosselva to Vestfossen. The river then go to Hokksund, where it splits into two river that both flow in the Drammen River.</p><br>
<p>In 2005, Lake Eikeren was developed by the Vestfold Inter Municipal Waterworks, (Vestfold Interkommunale Vannverk), in order to provide extra drinking water for Vestfold. The other source is Farrisvannet, a lake on the border between the counties of Vestfold and Telemark. Vestfold Inter Municipal Waterworks Authority is a company owned by ten municipalities in Vestfold and is responsible for water supply, water treatment, emergency power supply and the main distribution to its members.</p><br>
<p>During the summer season, Lake Eikeren is served by tourist boat M/S Eikern between Eidsfoss and Vestfossen. The original M/S Eikern steamer was commissioned in 1861. The steam vessel Cappelen was built in 1880 and was used for timber and passenger traffic. In 1903, the steamship Stadshauptmand Schwartz carried regular traffic and provided a link between the Kongsberg Railway (Kongsbergbanen) and the Tønsberg–Eidsfoss Line. The current vessel M/S Eikern has carried traffic on Lake Eikern since 1997.</p><br>
<p>The William Kenyon House is located on Fair Street in Kingston, New York, United States. It was built by William Kenyon, a member of Congress from the area, in the mid-19th century.</p><br>
<p>It is an intact example of the center-gable Italian villa-style house popular at the time. In 2001 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Property</h2><br>
<p>The house is located on the east side of Fair Street two lots north of its junction with Franklin Street. The neighborhood is residential, dominated by similar 19th-century houses. Two others just up the street, the Boice and Chichester houses, are also listed on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>Standing two and a half stories on a stone and brick foundation, the house is sided in tan-painted brick. It is topped with a low asphalt-shinged hipped roof with modillion-supported overhanging eaves at the roofline. There is one brick outbuilding in the rear, which seems to have served as a summer kitchen. It is a contributing resource to the property&#39;s historic character.</p><br>
<p>The west (front) facade is three bays wide. The northern two bays project. On both stories it has a centrally located double window with molded stone cornice and sill and original wooden louvered shutters. In the center of the gable apex is an oculus.</p><br>
<p>Two windows, also with their original shutters, are located symmetrically on the north and south profiles of the house. A modern two-story wing projects from the east elevation.</p><br>
<p>Wooden steps lead up to the main entrance in the southern bay. It is sheltered by a flat-roofed porch with plain wide frieze and cornice supported by a single turned pillar rising from a wooden railing. A double door with transom opens into a side hall with a detailed wooden stair. Pocket doors lead to parlors on the north. All the rooms on the first floor have their original plaster cornices and projecting Greek Revival moldings and architraves. The second floor&#39;s rooms are more restrained.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in 1850, when Italian-villa style houses were at the peak of their popularity. The Kenyon House is typical of the center-gable version, which does not include a tower. In 1870 it was listed as the property of Kenyon, a local lawyer and businessman who had served a single term in Congress a decade earlier. It has remained a private residence since, with little alteration save the modern addition in the rear.</p><br>
<p>Hathi Parbat,  also known as Elephant Peak, is a mountain in the Garhwal Himalayas in India. It is located in the Chamoli district of Uttarakhand state. Its summit has an elevation of 6,727 m.</p><br>
<h2>Legend</h2><br>
<p>Two huge rocks on a spur of Hathi Parbat are described as a crow (Kakabhushundi) and an eagle (Garuda). It is believed that the crow is animatedly conversing with eagle on the affairs of the universe as it&#39;s described in Ramayana. Another version has it that a learned Brahmin of Ayodhya once incurred the wrath of the sage Lomasa who lived here and was changed into the form of crow by the sage.</p><br>
<h2>Access</h2><br>
<p>Hathi Parbat can be reached from Vishnuprayag or Ghangaria, which is close to Valley of Flowers. The approach from Ghangaria is a little easier but longer. From Govindghat, there is an 18 km bridle path which runs through the Bhyundar valley and Bhyundar village up to Ghanghariya. Kakbhushundi Tal & Guari Parvat Lies in the vicinity of Hathi Parbat. Nearby places are Bhyundar, Jelam, Shyama and Juma. The Dhauliganga River flows nearby.</p><br>
<p>The Tobias Van Steenburgh House is located on Wall Street  in Kingston, New York, United States. It is a stone house built around the beginning of the 18th century.</p><br>
<p>It was one of the few buildings in Kingston not burned by the British in 1777. A large plaque on the front of the house notes this. In 1999 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The house is located on the west side of Wall Street near its junction with Franklin Street. The surrounding neighborhood is residential, with houses of more recent construction. There is a former school building to the west. In the rear of the house are a modern garage and swimming pool, neither of which are considered contributing properties to the National Register listing. An iron fence separates the property from the sidewalk.</p><br>
<p>From a full basement, the house rises one and a half stories. It is faced in limestone rubble and has a steeply pitched gabled roof with projecting eaves pierced by a large central dormer with flanking shed dormers. On the west (rear) elevation, there is a frame extension one bay wider than the house itself in either direction. Both bays end in small, gabled dependencies.</p><br>
<p>The east (front) facade is five bays wide, asymmetrical but with a centrally located front entrance. The windows are in heavy mortise and tenon frames. In the front wall near the north end is a large embedded stone tablet explaining that the house "suffered no injury" when British troops burned Kingston on October 16, 1777, and that it was home to the van Steenburgh family for two centuries.</p><br>
<p>The north and south ends are similar, with asymmetrical fenestration in both. A garret door remains in the upper gable end on the west profile.</p><br>
<p>The main entrance, a recessed Georgian-style door with transom, opens into a central hallway that runs the depth of the original stone building. A parlor is on the east and a large dining area on the west. Both rooms have exposed ceiling beams and Georgian trim. In the parlor is an intricate Federal style mantel with chip-carved sunburst motif. The dining room has a large fireplace with plain surround meant for cooking. The original rear doors lead into the rear extension; hyphens lead to other stone dependencies with office space and a modern kitchen.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The houses build date of 1700 comes from a statement by its owner in the late 1930s. He told the Daily Freeman, Kingstons newspaper, that the house had been built by that year. Its original owner, the first Van Steenburgh, was a man named Jan Janisse, later Jansen Timmerman, from the Dutch town of Amersfoort who assumed the Van Steenburgh name after he married in 1660.</p><br>
<p>His descendant Tobias Van Steenburgh was the owner of record at the time of the Revolution. Why the house was not burned in 1777 is not known. Legend has it that it was the home of a Mrs. Hammersly, a woman with Loyalist sympathies, who was in love with a British officer who spared the house. Others have it that the British began to burn the house, but the order to withdraw was sounded soon after and slaves who were hiding in the nearby woods quickly extinguished what little fire there was after the troops left. A variant on that tale says that since the house was used as an inn at the time, the slaves rolled a barrel of rum they had tapped and treated the soldiers to free drink until the order came to leave.</p><br>
<p>The house remained in the Van Steenburgh family until the mid-19th century. In 1897, on the 120th anniversary of the burning, the local Daughters of the American Revolution chapter placed the plaque in the front wall. In 1930 local architect Henry Graiser built the rear addition, carefully designed to be sympathetic and non-intrusive to the original house. There have been no significant changes to the building since.</p><br>
<p>The Longyear Hall of Pedagogy  was an academic building located on Presque Isle Avenue, on the campus of Northern Michigan University in Marquette, Michigan. It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1972 as part of the Kaye Hall Complex,</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original Longyear Hall, named for prominent Marquette real estate developer and early Northern Michigan Normal School patron John Munroe Longyear, was constructed in 1900, the year after Northern was founded. This building burned down in 1905. A second Longyear Building, a reconstruction of the original, was built in 1907, based on a design by Battle Creek architect E. W. Arnold. Longyear Hall was used to house administration offices, classrooms, and the library.</p><br>
<p>In 1915, to form a three-building complex. An addition to the Longyear Hall, housing athletic facilities, was built in 1933. In 1972, Kaye Hall and the Peter White Science Hall were demolished. Longyear Hall was abandoned in 1975 when administrative offices were moved, and the structure was never used again. Despite being listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, Longyear Hall was torn down in 1993.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Longyear Hall of Pedagogy was a rectangular two-and-one-half-story structure built with a steel frame sheathed with local Marquette brownstone, with a hipped roof and gabled dormers. The front entrance was topped by a bank of three rectangular windows and flanked by two-story bay windows. A stone beltcourse ran between the first and second stories, and a dentil cornice edged the top of the structure.</p><br>
<p>The Union Avenue Historic Commercial District is a century-old business district in Pueblo, Colorado, United States.The district comprises sixty-nine contributing properties in a total area of 27 acre including the Union Depot, Vail Hotel and Quaker Flour Mill. In 1983, the district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The historic district was originally located within South Pueblo and Central Pueblo, two small cities until incorporated into Pueblo, Colorado which combined South Pueblo, Central Pueblo, Pueblo and Bessemer into one municipality. While still South Pueblo, Bat Masterson, best known for his association with Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday was brought in as sheriff to protect a railroad that was being built.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Little is known about the early history of the area. On maps as early as 1872, the area was called 5th Street, with the first known reference to Union Avenue in 1880. The Pueblo City Hall, also on the National Historic Register of Places, had a key part in the formation of the modern city of Pueblo. In Article VI of The Articles of Consolidation, it was agreed that City hall had to be within this district "not further north then 2nd street in the present city of Pueblo and not further south then the Arkansas River."</p><br>
<p>The area has suffered several floods that have received national coverage due to the scope and the damage they had on both the local and national economies. Before the current levee was constructed, the district and most of the rest of Pueblo was devastated by the single largest flood in Pueblo history in 1921. The damage was described to The Los Angeles Times by Maj. Paul P. Newlon, who took command of the state troops sent to help recovery, as "Conditions are beyond description...Virtually every building from the postoffice to the square beyond the Union station on Union avenue was completely wiped out." almost completely destroyed the city&#39;s downtown and killed over 1,500 people. As Pueblo was the leading economic center of southern Colorado before the flood, both the city economy and the regional economy were severely set back.</p><br>
<p>Many of the existing buildings were built in the 1880s, but due to the floods many were remodeled to the standards of the time preceding the regions floods. Most notably this was an issue with the flood in 1921. With the collapse of the district economically and the decline of passenger railway use, the district soon became a notorious "Red Light District", known also for its many Taverns. Local folklore says that in the late 1930s the residents of Union Ave in the mesa junction area petitioned to have the street name changed, in order to avoid association with this element. In 1939 the upper portion of the street was renamed Colorado Ave.</p><br>
<p>Due to the impacts of negligent ownership and the age of the buildings, decay soon set in. Starting in 1996, a major voter approved project was started to renew the "unsightly" district to be a catalyst for cultural and economic growth. The Historic Arkansas River Project follows the original path of the Arkansas River, which had been rerouted after the 1921 flood. It has a special significance for Pueblo as it marks the former borders of France and Spain and later United States of America, Mexico and the Republic of Texas. By 2001 the addition of the Riverwalk was deemed a success in not only revitalizing the district, but helping the Pueblo city economy recover from a decade long recession the city had experienced after CF & I Steel laid off 3800 workers in 1982.</p><br>
<p>In November 2008, The Branch Inn, a historic building with ties to reputed mafioso Jo Jo Concialdi,</p><br>
<p>was destroyed by a sudden explosion. One woman was killed and multiple other individuals were injured in the destruction of the Branch Inn. The century old building was not only lost, but many other buildings in the area were damaged.</p><br>
<p>An investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives determined that the explosion was the result of a gas leak. However, responsibility for the accident is disputed, with multiple parties alleging that the city is responsible for neglecting possible warning signs, and the city claiming that the local utility company failed to properly maintain the leaking pipeline. The local district attorney has announced that no criminal charges will be filed.</p><br>
<p>By late 2009, plans had been laid for new construction on the vacant lot, a move welcomed by neighboring business owners.</p><br>
<p>The Union Avenue Historic Commercial District is a common location for community events. Annual events held in the district include the "B Street Bash" in June, Oktoberfest in September, and the autumn Pueblo Chile and Frioles festival.</p><br>
<p>The district has been host to several well-known politicians over its history. Pueblo Memorial Hall hosted the last public speech of then president Woodrow Wilson. The city erected a plaque commemorating his speech in support of the League of Nations.</p><br>
<p>The Union Avenue Historic Commercial District was the location of a rally for Barack Obama&#39;s presidential campaign on October 31, 2008.</p><br>
<p>Ferriter&#39;s Cove is a small bay located at the westernmost point of Dingle Peninsula, in County Kerry, Ireland. It is in the Dún Urlainn  parish and electoral division of the Dingle rural area .</p><br>
<h2>Etymology</h2><br>
<p>The cove was named after the Ferriter family name, which derives from the Norman French le Fereter. Walter le Fereter, the ancestor of many later Ferriters, is the first person known in the area with the name and probably arrived following other Normans from Dublin. He was mentioned twice in a plea roll of 1252. The parish of Dunurlin is also recorded as being in the Ferriters possession, and indeed the name also exists in the nearby village of Baile n Fhirtéaraigh (Ballyferriter).</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>At the northern limit, the bedrock around the Cove is Devonian (419.2-358.9 mya) in age, beginning with conglomerate sandstone and siltstone of the Pointagare group, then the Ballydavid sandstone formation and further south the medium-grained Farran sandstone formation. Furthest south the igneous Silurian (443.8–419.2 mya) rocks of the Foilnamahagh Formation are dominant, with lavas and pyroclastic remnants.</p><br>
<p>Between 2009 and 2017 (at Baile &#39;n Fhirtéaraigh), for January and July respectively, the mean temperatures are 8 C and 16C and the mean rainfall 207mm and 153mm; the highest and lowest mean wind speeds were 39.3 km/h (November 2009) and 14.3 km/h (July 2013) respectively, with the highest wind speeds generally in winter.</p><br>
<h2>Archaeology</h2><br>
<p>Excavations performed in the late 20th century have provided evidence that people lived there during the Mesolithic.</p><br>
<p>The excavations at Ferriter’s Cove were conducted by Peter C. Woodman. They followed a find in 1983 by an amateur archaeologist of a flint knife, believed to be from the Neolithic period.</p><br>
<p>Woodmans team found implements that dated the site to the late Mesolithic. These included a grindstone, marked sandstone pebbles, shell dumps, various hearths and five mudstone axes that had been deposited together. The site has been interpreted as following the model of ephemeral Later Mesolithic habitation of short term stays, and the dating suggests that the site was used intermittently over a millennium, with more or less three phases. While Ferriters Cove contained no formal burials, several pieces of human bone and teeth were found, one dating to 4225–3950 BC, and the other to 4250–3980 BC.</p><br>
<p>In 2012, further research was published confirming evidence of Neolithic farmers at Ferriter&#39;s cove, providing the first evidence of farming in Ireland or Great Britain. The remains of cattle and sheep, the latter not native to Ireland, were investigated; carbon dating showed that they were alive c. 4350 BC.</p><br>
<p>The Seward Depot, also known as the Seward Station, is a former rail depot in Seward, Alaska, United States.</p><br>
<p>The depot was constructed in 1917 at what is now Adams Street and Ballaine Boulevard to serve the railroad line. Seward was and remains the southern terminus of the Alaska Railroad. The Seward line was owned by the Alaska Central Railroad, the Alaska Northern Railroad, and at the time of the depot&#39;s construction, the USA government. President Warren G. Harding visited Seward and Alaska in 1923, and following completion of the Mears Memorial Bridge, drove the ceremonial golden spike at Nenana, connecting Seward with Fairbanks.</p><br>
<p>In 1928 the building was moved to its current location on Railway Avenue following a flood of Lowell Creek.</p><br>
<p>Much of the railyard in Seward and the track north along the Turnagain Arm were destroyed in the Good Friday earthquake and the subsequent tsunami that hit the town, and the depot was out of use. It served as the headquarters for the Alaska Marine Highway&#39;s M/V Tustumena for a time. In 1998 it was sold to the Chugach Alaska Corporation after the corporation completed renovations, and the building served as a native cultural center for three years. It is currently owned by the Seward Association of the Advancement of Marine Science, dba, Alaska SeaLife Center, who lease it for operation as a cafe.</p><br>
<p>Hoben Park, also listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is adjacent to the depot. Both are located at the southernmost point in Seward.</p><br>
<p>The Severnaya Sosva  is a river in Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Russia, which drains the northern Ural Mountains into the lower Ob River.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The river and its tributaries are basically T-shaped. The Khulga and Lyapin Rivers flow south for about 125 mi parallel to the Urals while the main Northern Sosva flows about 125 mi northward. The united rivers then flow east southeast about 100 mi almost to the Ob near Igrim and then flow north about 50 mi before joining the Ob at Beryozovo. Its headwaters are just east of the headwaters of the Pechora River on the other side of the Urals and somewhat north of the headwaters of the southeast-flowing Pelym River.</p><br>
<p>The Severnaya Sosva River is 754 km long, and the area of its basin is 98,300 km&sup2;. The average discharge of the river is 860 m3/s. It is frozen between November and April and floods (mostly snowmelt) from May to September. Like many rivers in the West Siberian Plain, it has an extensive flood plain with marshes and meanders. In spring the area near the Ob often floods. The channel width sometimes approaches 1 km and the flood plain 40 km. The river is navigable by ships in the lower region.</p><br>
<p>There are two Malaya Sosva rivers. The larger flows north to join the Northern Sosva near Igrim. The other joins the Bolshaya Sosva to form the Northern Sosva.</p><br>
<h2>Trade route</h2><br>
<p>There was some ill-documented Russian trade in the area before the Russian conquest of Siberia. After about 1593 the Northern Sosva was one of the main routes into Siberia (for the others, see Verkhoturye). The route ran from the Pechora River, up the Shchugor River, over either of two passes and down the Sosva to the Ob River and the fur-rich Mangazeya region. By the late 17th century the fur trade declined and most trade shifted south to Verkhoturye and some north to the Usa River.</p><br>
<p>Strandavatnet is a lake in Hol municipality, Norway. The lake covers an area of 23.75 km&sup2;, and lies 975 m above sea level.&#39;</p><br>
<p>The lake is a reservoir for the Rud hydroelectric powerstation in Hovet, Buskerud. In 1952/1953 a dam was constructed which lifted the lake level 28 meters, thus the lake varies between 950 and 978 m above sea level.</p><br>
<h2>First rock filling dam in Norway</h2><br>
<p>The dam in the Strandavatnet was the first rock filling (embankment) dam in Norway. You can see the dam on your left hand side from FV 50 at Myrland (the road to Raggsteindalen goes over the dam). The Hol 1 power station, in Hovet, Buskerud utilizes water from two watercourses, Urunda, where Strandavatnet, is the intake reservoir, and Votna where Varaldset is the intake reservoir. Stolsvatnet is the biggest and highest reservoir in the Votna watercourse. See figure below.</p><br>

<p>The Hotel Charbonneau is located at 88 Wisconsin Street  in Priest River, Idaho and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was originally constructed in 1912 by Charles and Dora Charbonneau . During the first half of the 20th century, Priest River and the Hotel Charbonneau, which is located one block away from where the train station used to be, was a popular stopping-off point for people traveling to nearby Spokane, Coeur d&#39;Alene, Sandpoint, and Priest Lake. In 1920, Dora Charbonneau added a brick addition onto the south side of the hotel to accommodate more guests. After the brick addition was built, the Hotel Charbonneau boasted 27 guest rooms with more than half of them having their own private bathrooms; an extravagant luxury at that time.</p><br>
<p>It was purchased by Bob and Lorraine Shaffer in the mid-1940s and then renamed to be the Lorraine Hotel.</p><br>
<p>The Charbonneau operated as a hotel/boarding house until the late 1980s when it was abandoned and risked being condemned. In 1991 the Priest River Restoration and Revitalization Committee (PRRRC), a local non-profit group composed entirely of volunteers, took control of the Hotel Charbonneau and saved it from complete deterioration. Among the PRRRC&#39;s accomplishments was having the Hotel Charbonneau added to the National Register of Historic Places (11/19/91), which was hoped to protect the historic structure for future generations. The hotel was purchased by the PRRRC for $50,000; the group hoped to rehab it to serve as a combination bed-and-breakfast and apartments for senior citizens.</p><br>
<p>In 2010 the Hotel Charbonneau was privately owned and undergoing restoration.</p><br>
<p>According to its website, in 2017 the hotel is under renovation and is not open.</p><br>

<p>The President&#39;s Mansion is a historic Greek Revival style mansion on the campus of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. It has served as the official residence of university presidents ever since its completion in 1841. The structure narrowly avoided destruction during the American Civil War, making it one of the oldest surviving buildings on campus today. The mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 14, 1972, due to its architectural and historical significance.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The history of the Presidents Mansion began in 1838 when the university trustees set apart funds for a residence suitable for the president of the young institution. While the plans for the university and its already completed buildings had been designed by William Nichols in the late 1820s and early 1830s, he had left the state and was busy with new projects by this time. The new house was designed by Michael Barry, in a Greek Revival style complementary to the existing Nichols-designed campus buildings. The trustees chose a site adjoining what today is the south side of The Quad, in an area which had been originally designated in the Nichols plan as the future medical school grounds. Construction on the building began in 1839 and was completed in 1841.</p><br>
<p>The first occupant of the mansion was Basil Manly, Sr., the second university president. Serving from 1837 until 1855, Manly was widely considered to be a popular president. Nevertheless, he and the trustees were criticized by members of the Alabama Legislature for the "unnecessarily lavish" structure.</p><br>
<p>On April 3, 1865, Union Brigadier General John T. Croxton and 1500 cavalrymen approached Tuscaloosa. Croxton had orders to destroy all targets of military value in the town. Tuscaloosa was captured on that day, and all of its factories and the river bridge destroyed. On April 4, Croxton sent Colonel Thomas M. Johnston and two hundred men to burn the university. In the midst of carrying out his orders, university faculty pleaded with Johnston to spare the library rotunda. Johnston sent a message via courier to Croxton, asking if he might spare the building. Croxton replied "My orders leave me no discretion... My orders are to destroy all public buildings."</p><br>
<p>Although technically a private residence, the Presidents Mansion was also set on fire that day. Tradition maintains that the presidents wife, Louisa Frances Garland, arrived at the mansion from the temporary refuge of Bryce Hospital just as soldiers were setting a pile of furniture inside the building alight. She persuaded them to douse the flames, thus sparing the house. The mansion was one of only seven buildings on the campus spared destruction; the others were the Gorgas House, Little Round House, Observatory and a few faculty residences.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The design for the three-story stuccoed brick structure features a high arcuated ground floor, with the stucco on the front of this level giving the appearance of ashlar. It is surmounted by two upper principle floors, accessed by a centrally placed double staircase at ground level. The front facade is five bays wide, with the two principal floors fronted by a monumentally scaled hexastyle portico, utilizing the Ionic order.</p><br>
<p>The mansion has been renovated on numerous occasions in the more than 160 years since it was completed. One of the largest changes came in 1908, when the exterior assumed its predominantly white appearance.</p><br>
<p>The James and Mary Forsyth House is located on Albany Avenue near uptown Kingston, New York, United States. It is a brick Italian villa-style house designed by Richard Upjohn in the mid-19th century. When it was finished it was celebrated locally for its lavish decor. James Forsyth, as well as another later resident, left the house after being accused of financial wrongdoing. It has been modified slightly since its original construction with trim in the Colonial Revival style.</p><br>
<p>Along with the Old Dutch Church by Minard Lafever, it is the only extant pre-Civil War building, and the only house from that period, in Kingston designed by a nationally prominent architect. In the 20th century it was used as a Masonic Lodge. Since 1986 it has been the offices of a local construction company that has restored some of Kingston&#39;s other historic buildings. In 2003 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The house is at the front of a 3.3 acre lot on the north side of Albany Avenue across from Academy Green Park, the triangle formed by Albany, Clinton Avenue and Maiden Lane. On the west is a four-story brick Colonial Revival apartment building, built in the mid-1920s as the Governor Clinton Hotel. To the east are other commercial properties, culminating in the eastern terminus of Interstate 587 and NY 28 at the junction of Albany and Broadway. Behind the house, north of the property, is a parking lot and a small pond.</p><br>
<p>The building itself is a two-and-a-half-story, three-bay structure of load-bearing brick walls on a raised foundation of tooled limestone in an ashlar pattern. All the exterior trim is in wood. The roof, hipped with a gable crossing the center, is shingled in asphalt, with a molded cornice with large brackets supporting the eaves.</p><br>
<h3>Exterior</h3><br>
<p>On the south (front) facade, the first story has a wooden porch covering all three openings. The porch echoes the house, with a modillioned center gable and hipped roof supported by fluted Ionic columns with turned balusters between them. Behind them the windows have been fitted with French doors.</p><br>
<p>Windows on the second story have segmental brick arches, wooden hoods and cut stone sills. Above them is a single roundel window in the center gable.</p><br>
<p>The east profile has similar window treatments to the front on a one-bay projecting gabled section with a similar porch. The two flanking bays have porches for their French doors that cantilever out with perforated woodwork railings and large wood brackets with drop pendants supporting the hoods. By contrast, the central projecting bay&#39;s porch is similar to the front one. The center-bay second-story window has a round arch and is slightly recessed, giving it a Palladian feel. On the opposite side, the west elevation is similar with a bump-out at the southwest corner.</p><br>
<p>On the north side are similar windows and another projection, with a small frame addition. A fire escape runs up the side. There are no French doors on this elevation.</p><br>
<h3>Interior</h3><br>
<p>The main entrance consists of a modern door in front of the original paired glazed doors and a round glass transom. It opens into a small vestibule, which in turn leads through another pair of doors with stained glass lights and transom, possibly depicting scenes from Forsyth family history in a Romantic medieval fashion, into the L-shaped main hall with linoleum flooring. The basement stairs are directly ahead; the main stair is off to the right. A library and parlor are on the east and west respectively. Further to the north are a dining room and drawing room. A small bedroom and dressing room are in the addition on the rear.</p><br>
<p>Both the front parlor and library retain their original parquet flooring, molded baseboards and plaster cornice. The library also has a paneled wooden door with its original silver hardware, paneled pocket shutters on the French doors to the exterior. A set of wooden cabinets have a cornice with running guilloché frieze. In the parlor is a chimney breast with marble Italianate mantelpiece. A wide opening with Corinthian columns leads into the dining room to the north.</p><br>
<p>The dining room has similar flooring and walls, as well as another mantelpiece in the same material and style. A bracketed wooden frieze runs around the room at a height of six feet (2 m). The drawing room, the largest space on the first story, has 15 ft ceilings and many of the same decorative features.</p><br>
<p>Near the stair to the second floor is a wooden settee. The staircase itself is cantilevered out, and consists of open stringers with carpet on the steps. It is decorated with a turned newel post and balusters. The round arched window on the east profile lights the landing with 19th-century stained glass.</p><br>
<p>The western half of the second floor is an open meeting room supported by steel I-beams visible from the attic, with carpeted floor and daises on the wall. The original master bedroom is in the northeast corner. It retains its marble mantelpiece in the chimney breast. It is currently carpeted, with acoustic tiles in the ceiling. The walls, baseboards and plaster cornice are original, as are the doors and silver hardware.</p><br>
<p>The attic has been extensively modified, although it is still possible to see how it was used originally as servants quarters. The northeast room still has the original door and beaded board enclosures. The basement is still in its original layout, used for storage and service functions. There is an original cast iron stove in the kitchen. The servants dining room retains its original doors and a Greek Revival wooden mantelpiece.</p><br>
<h2>Aesthetics</h2><br>
<p>A few years before the Forsyth commission, Upjohn had built his first Italian villa, the Edward King House in Newport, Rhode Island. One of the earliest uses of that form in the country, it was praised by Andrew Jackson Downing in his book The Architecture of Country Houses, as "unit beauty of form and expression with spacious accommodation, in a manner not often seen... There is dignity, refinement and elegance, all about its leading features".</p><br>
<p>For the Forsyth house, Upjohn used the center-gable variant of the Italian villa, instead of the tower variant he had used in Newport. His great-grandson, Everard Upjohn, writing about the house in the 1930s, saw similarities between the Forsyth and King houses. " shows the same tendency to break up the mass", he observed. At the same time, he felt that the interior was so tightly divided that there was little possibility of opening it up.</p><br>
<p>The Forsyth House is also similar to Upjohns J.J. Johnson House in Brooklyns Flatbush neighborhood, since demolished. It, too, was an Italian villa with a center gable and roundel, segmented-arch windows with hoods and a bracketed cornice. "While not exciting, and certainly not such as to cause one to stare", wrote Everard Upjohn, "it escaped the most obtrusive faults of its time."</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>A native of Newburgh, James Forsyth moved to Kingston in 1840 at the age of 21. He became a successful lawyer and politician, and married a local woman, Mary Bruyn. In 1847, he visited New Haven, Connecticut, then a center of contemporary architecture. He wrote his wife about the "exquisite private residences... in every respect superior to any in Kingston".</p><br>
<p>The couple decided to build such a house in their hometown. After talking to an architect in New Haven, they turned to Upjohn, then enjoying renown for the success of Trinity Church. They consulted closely with the architect on the design throughout the process, and many of his renderings have survived. They are archived in Columbia University&#39;s Avery Library, and show that the house was not substantially modified from the original design. Asphalt shingles replaced the planned metal cladding on the roof, the only significant change to the exterior before the house was built. No records have been found from the actual construction.</p><br>
<p>When the house was finished in 1851, the Forsyths threw a housewarming party, with champagne and oysters, to which they invited many of Kingstons other affluent couples. Nathaniel Booth, a local merchant, echoed the Forsyths original hope, writing that the house was "a splendid affair throwing all others in Kingston in the shade." The lavish decoration, he wondered, "would rather astonish the honest Dutch who built Old Sopus could they revisit old scenes", referring to Kingstons original 17th-century settlers.</p><br>
<p>Forsyth did not get to enjoy his sumptuous surroundings for long. He had made $200,000 ($ in contemporary dollars) through a number of fraudulent schemes, including forgery and illegal stock sales, and just before this was discovered in 1853 he left the country. After traveling through southern Europe for a while he made his way to the English city of Hereford on the Welsh border. There, under the assumed name of Edward Rashleigh, he drank heavily and died at the age of 36 in the Green Dragon Inn in 1855.</p><br>
<p>After his flight and death, his wife and children remained in the house. Sometime almost two decades later, in the 1870s, they sold it to William Fitch, a relative of Ezra Fitch. Later it was the property of county treasurer John Broadhead. During his tenure, around the turn of the century, the front porch was redone in a Colonial Revival mode and the columns at the dining room entryway were added. In the early 20th century, Broadhead moved to Connecticut after he was accused of stealing $80–200,000 from the county. At a public auction in 1907 it was sold to Samuel Gray, a grain dealer from Saugerties.</p><br>
<p>In 1939 the local Freemasons bought it. Local architect George Low supervised some large-scale changes, including the bump-out at the southwest corner and the opening of the western half of the second story to create a meeting room. A fire escape was also built on the rear of the building to comply with the building code.</p><br>
<p>After remaining vacant for years in the late 20th century when the Masons moved out, it was bought in late 2002 by Carey Construction, a local firm that has restored some city landmarks like the Persen House and City Hall. As part of its restoration, Carey said it might remove the other second floor walls to create a more open space for offices and add skylights to the roof but did not plan to make any other permanent changes.</p><br>
<p>Oswego Armory is a historic National Guard armory located at Oswego in Oswego County, New York. It is a brick and stone castle-like structure built in 1906–1908. It was designed by State architect George L. Heins. It consists of a -story administration building with an attached large, gable-roofed drill shed. The building features a 5-story octagonal tower at the northwest corner.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<h2>Oswego YMCA</h2><br>
<p>After the closing of the Armory in 2004, The Oswego YMCA purchased the Armory and now runs most of its Child and Teen activities out of the building.</p><br>

<p>Mount Warrnambool is a single large scoria cone volcano that is 216 m high. It is 16 km southwest of Terang, Victoria, Australia. It is visible from the Princes Highway on the way to Warrnambool.</p><br>
<h2>Volcano</h2><br>
<p>Mount Warrnambool is an outstanding example of complex volcanic activity featuring lava flows, a maar eruption and Strombolian-type activity. The last eruption of Mount Warrnambool was over 5,000 years ago. Lava and tuff form layers in the area. The tuff forms a partial ring around the east and north sides of the volcano. The ring of tuff could be on other sides of the volcano too, except that it is covered in lava. The tuff has been quarried on the north side of the Princes Highway. The tuff here is hardened, but was formed due to volcanic ash falling from the air. Structures visible in the quarry include a base surge and volcanic bomb sag.</p><br>
<p>The basalt below the tuff has been dated at 2.2 Ma. A basalt layer on top of the tuff was dated at 0.57 Ma.</p><br>
<p>There is a small parcel of public land at the summit. An access track to a fire tower on the summit is not open to public.</p><br>
<p>The Homestead  is a large house in Weaverham Road, Sandiway, Cheshire, England. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was designed by the Chester architect John Douglas and built in about 1906–07 on land he owned himself in Sandiway, the village of his birth. The house and stables were built for B. J. Sanby, who bought the land from Douglas. By the 1970s its name had been changed to Redwalls and it was being used as a children&#39;s home. As of 2009 it is a private nursing home.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The house is constructed in Ruabon brick and has a chipped and rendered upper storey; the roofs are in Lakeland green slate and the chimneys are brick. Its north (entrance) front has five bays. The outer bays project forwards and are gabled with finials. In the centre is a projecting porch with pilasters, over which is a balustrade including a panel containing a carved griffon and motto. The garden front has a pair of two-storey canted bay windows. Brick extensions were added to the east of the building during the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The Stillwater Overlook is a scenic overlook in Oak Park Heights, Minnesota, United States, just south of the city limits of Stillwater, near the junction of Minnesota State Highway 36 and Minnesota State Highway 95. The overlook was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007 for having state-level significance in politics/government and landscape architecture. It was nominated as a leading example of the early wayside rests developed by the Minnesota Department of Highways Roadside Development Division, as well as for its sophisticated and well-preserved National Park Service rustic architecture, and for being an important work of Minnesota landscape architect Arthur R. Nichols.</p><br>
<p>The main structure on the site is a limestone wall that overlooks the St. Croix River valley. It was built by the National Youth Administration (NYA) between 1936 and 1937. The limestone was salvaged from the old Minnesota Territorial Prison, which was demolished by the NYA beginning in 1936. The construction is an excellent example of the National Park Service Rustic style, which emphasized the use of locally indigenous materials. The labor-intensive construction techniques also reflect the need to employ many people in federal relief projects. The overlook is very well preserved.</p><br>
<p>This overlook was one of several roadside development projects in the Stillwater area designed by Minnesota Highway Department landscape architect Arthur R. Nichols and built under Depression-era relief programs. Other projects in this time included an overlook north of Stillwater, a roadside parking area at the St. Croix Boom Site, and an Indian battleground historic marker. The roadside development in the Stillwater area reflected its importance as a tourist destination.</p><br>
<p>On 2 November 1902 the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery bought 96.5 acre of land that was owned by the city of Charleston, South Carolina adjoining the northwest side of the Navy Yard.Records obtained from the Court House, City of Charleston, South Carolina, out of Records F 24, page 30 dated 21 November 1902, containing the following record of interest:</p><br>

<p>Later transfers to the Navy Yard reduced the acreage to 43.14 acre, the number of acres recorded in hospital records as of 1 November 1949.</p><br>
<h2>Early years: 1902-1922</h2><br>
<p>After establishment of the Navy Yard in 1902, the Medical Department activities occupied "hospital" tents near the site of the Marine Corps Post Exchange. In 1905 a Marine Sick Quarters was erected in the same place. During this period of time the Medical Officer of the Yard had an office in the Post Office building in Charleston, making a daily trip to the Yard by street car. In 1905, a room in one of the then existing buildings at the Yard was allotted for use as a Medical Dispensary.</p><br>
<p>On 26 June 1906, Congress appropriated $12,000 for the building of a Yard Dispensary, but no bids from outside contractors were received on the plans and specifications for the building and it was not until December 1908 that a Yard Dispensary was completed by Yard labor. This wooden building was erected on brick piers near the center of the Navy Yard. Later a basement was constructed under this building which functioned as a dispensary and as a small hospital, with many of its patients in tents. Since its beginning the building had been repeatedly enlarged by additions. In 1917 the west wing was added.</p><br>
<p>With the advent of World War I, this 28-bed dispensary, even with the addition of new buildings, was taxed beyond its capacity, and was entirely inadequate to meet the hospital needs for the Naval Base, and the increased personnel caused by the establishment of the training camp to the capacity of 5,000 men. Emergency facilities in the shape of tents, and temporary beds were established in connection with the Naval Dispensary until a total capacity was reached for 120 patients. This was a temporary expedient to meet the circumstances incident to a sudden influx of men without accommodations for the sick.</p><br>
<p>In view of the necessity for a Naval Hospital in this area, a hospital was authorized to be constructed by the NAVAL EMERGENCY FUND ACT A contract was let with the Charleston Engineering and Constructing Company to build the hospital. Work commenced on 1 June 1917, and the hospital was commissioned on 31 July 1917, in spite of many difficulties encountered in obtaining an adequate supply of labor and a strike of minor importance among the carpenters. The hospital was the original Naval Hospital built on the site located on the Medical Department Property that was purchased in 1902. The hospital consisted of 19 temporary wooden buildings with a bed capacity of 250. These buildings included one administration building, one office building, one building for women nurses, nine ward buildings, one galley, a mess hall, garage, laundry, power house, stores house, and recreation hall. These were all one-story buildings, owing to the increased patient load, additional beds were urgently required, and by September 1918 fourteen additional buildings were constructed which increased the bed capacity to 1000 beds. These additional building were of wooden construction finished in stucco and were erected south of the hospital reservation. The hospital made use of an ambulance to transport the sick from outlying stations of the Sixth Naval District and from vessels in the harbor to the hospital.</p><br>
<p>Commander W. M. Garton, MC, USN was its commanding officer during its construction and until July 1919.</p><br>
<p>In 1922, due to the increasing cost of maintenance and the decreasing number of patients, the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery decided to abandon the World War I Emergency hospital, and the then Yard Dispensary was reoccupied as a combined Naval Hospital and Dispensary. The Yard Dispensary was then designated a Naval Hospital. On 21 December 1922, the emergency hospital was officially closed and the Medical personnel transferred to the dispensary building. Certain of the buildings of the emergency hospital were moved adjacent to the Yard Dispensary and as other buildings were demolished, the materials were used to provide additional facilities at the Navy Yard Hospital. The changes had no other significance other that to return the hospital to a pre-war status.</p><br>
<h2>Middle years: 1922-1970</h2><br>
<p>This hospital/dispensary consisted of several frame buildings occupying about 4 acre of land near the center of the Navy Yard, and had a bed capacity of 57. As indicated before, the main hospital building was completed in 1908 as a Yard Dispensary building, and between 1908 and 1938 new additions were built from time to time to the original structure as the need for expansion became necessary. A new wing was added to the main hospital building and the first floor of that wing was used for office space, the second floor was used for sick officers quarters, and the basement provided additional office and storage space. The building previously used for sick officers quarters, dental office and family clinic was converted for dependents hospitalization. A covered ramp connected this building with the main building. In 1937 work was underway on construction of a new hospital corpsman quarters west of this hospital building. The hospital corps quarters was then located on the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery property. Upon completion of the new quarters, the old quarters was converted to a contagious and genitourinary ward. The building previously used for contagious and genitourinary cases was then used as a Yard Dispensary, because the space in the main hospital was inadequate to include a Yard Dispensary. On 1 May 1941, the Yard Dispensary and the Naval Hospital, which had been combined, were separated into independent medical departments units. As the dispensary was an old war-time 1917-1918 frame structure and entirely inadequate, a new location and building were urgently needed which should be located more in and to the center of the industrial section. In July 1942, the dispensary was transferred to building number 58 of the Naval Shipyard at the entrance of the Third Street gate.</p><br>
<p>The emergency hospital buildings erected in 1917 were moved or torn down during the 1930s period with the exception of the then commanding officers and executive officers quarters, and building 21 (old medical storeroom) and the old mess hall for the original hospital. These four buildings were still standing and being used in 1975. The quarters 5, 6, and 7 that were used as Medical Officers quarters which were located at the West Gate entrance on hospital property were used as a sick bay for the recruit camp during World War I.</p><br>
<p>On 17 June 1940, work was commenced on the construction of two additional wards with a capacity of 60 patients. On 4 October 1940, these wards were completed, this gave the hospital a total capacity 117 beds which was still inadequate for the patient load at that time. In September 1940, funds amounting to about one million dollars were obtained from the Works Progress Administration for the construction of a 200-bed hospital.</p><br>
<p>In the Spring of 1941 work commenced on the construction of a new naval hospital, which was located on the same site as the old World War I emergency hospital. On 13 April 1942 the new naval hospital was completed and commissioned. Originally visualized as a 200-bed hospital, permanent wards in reality had a total capacity of 380 beds. All permanent wards were completed and occupied with the exception of the psychopathic ward which was completed within the next ten days. All the 30-bed temporary wards were finished and four of the 40-bed temporary wards were about ninety per cent finished. Construction of the fifth temporary ward was soon begun and upon completion of this ward gave the hospital a bed capacity of 600. During 1942 the hospital was enlarged by the addition of ten single story wooden ward buildings as a continuation of two rows of permanent ward buildings. On 2 June 1944, 5 acre of land was transferred back to the hospital from the Marine Corps. On this ground the Sick Officers&#39; quarters annex was constructed and occupied in 1945.</p><br>
<p>In September 1944, construction began on a concrete tile walled 260 ft by 42 ft recreation building. Entering this building one will see beautiful mural adorned walls and paneled foyer. A frieze of 68 campaign ribbons in full color against a slate back-ground is found in the foyer. At the soda fountain on the north wall of the ships service is a gigantic mural of life size Navy, Marine Corps, and Red Cross figures and a Gray Lady surrounding the seal of the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery. This is the work of Quartermaster First Class Wilko H. ANDERSON, who was a civilian portrait painter prior to his naval service. In this recreation lounge on the wide expanse of the south wall, a painted map of the world approximately 14 ft by 35 ft, looks down upon many recreational activities. In addition to the murals in the ships service lounge, the walls of the Red Cross Service Room are adorned with the favorite characters of several famous cartoonists, drawn by the artists themselves when they visited the hospital. Other activities located in the Recreation Building were a first class Post Office, Barber Shop, Beauty Shop, Lounge Rooms, Telephone Booths, Library, Red Cross Offices, Recreation Office, and Movie Auditorium. The auditorium has a seating capacity of 542 and provides movies twice each evening.</p><br>
<h2>Later years: 1970-2007</h2><br>
<p>A groundbreaking ceremony was held 14 February 1970, officially marking the beginning of the new Charleston Naval Hospital, a modern 500-bed structure that will replace the hospital facilities contained in the outmoded quarters on the Charleston Naval Base.</p><br>
<p>The Naval Hospital, at the Navy Shipyard, remained in continual use until the dedication on 2 March 1973 of the Naval Regional Medical Center located at the intersection of Rivers and McMillan Avenues, North Charleston, South Carolina. The new 10-story hospital has a 500-bed capacity and 375,000 sq ft of floor space. The building has central heat and air conditioning, central dictating and transcribing system, central oxygen and vacuum system, television for patient&#39;s rooms, and vertical transport systems. It has two Intensive Care Units, seven operating rooms, three delivery rooms, and a Cardiac Care Unit, all equipped with life support systems. The new Naval Hospital serves approximately 73,000 eligible patrons.</p><br>
<p>In March 1973 this new 500-bed Naval Hospital was completed and occupied, at a cost in excess of 18.5 million dollars.</p><br>
<p>The Naval Regional Medical Center, Charleston was established 1 July 1972 to provide improved patient care through improved utilization of resources including medical personnel. The Naval Regional Medical Center commands and coordinates the various Naval medical facilities and programs available to the Charleston and Beaufort communities. In addition to the core hospital, the command includes Branch Clinics at the Naval Station, the Naval Shipyard, the Naval Weapons Station, and the Naval Hospital Beaufort with Branch Clinics at the Marine Corps Air Station and Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island. The commanding officer, Naval Regional Medical Center also serves as the District Medical Officer, Sixth Naval District.</p><br>
<p>The Sixth Naval District was disestablished on September 30, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The early 1990s ushered in the zenith of Naval Hospital Charleston’s status as a tertiary military treatment facility. At the time of the 75th anniversary ceremony in 1992, the Hospital employed over 1,200 personnel, delivered over 1,300 babies, performed more than 3,000 surgeries, admitted 9,000 patients into our wards, and treated over 365,000 beneficiaries.</p><br>
<p>In 1993, the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) began hearings at the Gaillard Auditorium in Charleston, South Carolina resulting in a significant reduction in Navy presence in the City of North Charleston. Just one year later, on 24 June 1994, the Family Practice Residency Program that had produced 185 graduating interns and 149 graduating residents since its inception in 1973 conducted its final graduation.</p><br>
<p>Personnel migrations resulting from BRAC actions reduced the number of active duty personnel and their family members in North Charleston from 77,000 in 1993 to fewer than 38,000 at the end of Fiscal Year 1995. During that same period, the total beneficiary population declined from 106,000 to 71,000. Though bed capacity had steadily declined prior to the BRAC actions, the loss of beneficiaries between 1993 and 1994 resulted in the rightsizing of Naval Hospital Charleston to 40 beds to support the population that remained in the catchment area effective 1 October 1995.</p><br>
<p>In 1996, North Charleston witnessed the final closure of its Naval Base and Shipyard and the City bid farewell to most of the mighty vessels of war that had long home ported at its piers – destroyers, frigates, cruisers, submarines, tenders and other support ships.</p><br>
<p>The Naval Hospital’s Emergency Room and Intensive Care Unit were both disestablished in February 1998 to further optimize resources. Later that year on November 1, the Hospital implemented an External Resource Sharing Agreement with Trident Health System that provided Naval Hospital physicians and their patients with a full array of quality inpatient and surgical services to include General Surgery; Obstetrics and Gynecological Surgery; Ear, Nose and Throat Surgery; and Orthopedic Surgery. This agreement is still in place today and the partnership is indeed a superb success.</p><br>
<p>April 14, 1999 marked the end of another era for the Hospital. The Medical/Surgical Unit, the last inpatient ward at this facility, closed its doors to inpatient admissions after 26 years of service.</p><br>
<p>Another historic event occurred when, in October 2006, the Operating Room and Post Anesthesia Recovery and Ambulatory Procedures Units located on the Hospital’s 10th deck were disestablished during a poignant ceremony that celebrated the numerous safe and successful procedures performed by the dedicated surgeons and support staff during the 33 years that the units were in operation.</p><br>
<h2>Current years: 2007 and beyond</h2><br>
<p>In alignment with the Chief of Naval Operation’s vision of future force shaping, the Naval Weapons Station Dental Clinic was integrated into the Naval Hospital during a Change of Charge ceremony on October 22, 2004, well ahead of the mandated deadline as a result of the hard work and team focus of both Hospital and Dental Clinic staff members.</p><br>
<p>On January 12, 2007, the Naval Hospital Charleston publicly announced the official change of name from Naval Hospital Charleston to Naval Health Clinic Charleston to accurately reflect the ambulatory care mission which they have provided since 1998.</p><br>
<p>The Naval Health Clinic Charleston will consolidate their services into a modern, two story ambulatory clinic and share the facility and some of its services with the Ralph H. Johnson Veteran’s Administration Medical Center, which will operate a Community Based Outpatient Clinic from the facility. The ground breaking for the new clinic is scheduled for March 23, 2007, with an estimated completion date and official move in date of late September 2010.</p><br>
<p>The Naval Health Clinic Charleston currently renders quality health services for approximately 12,000 enrollees from these buildings located at the Naval Weapons Station in Goose Creek to better serve our beneficiaries in that strategic location:</p><br>
<p>The Branch Medical Clinic offers family medicine and ancillary services.</p><br>
<p>At Naval Nuclear Power Training Command (NNPTC), the Naval Health Clinic Charleston provides a sick call clinic for 5000 students and 500 faculty.</p><br>
<p>The Branch Wellness clinic provides health promotion classes and health beneficiary consultation.</p><br>
<p>September 1, 2010 the long-awaited move to the new consolidated Joint VA and Naval Health Clinic commenced. The new site is a 188,000 ft&sup2, state-of-the-art layout. It offers a drive-through pharmacy and a variety of other health care upgrades for active duty service members, their family members, retirees and veterans. It is "ambulatory," or for "walk-in, walk-out" services.</p><br>
<p>With this move, the Naval Weapons Station Branch Medical Clinic and the NNPTC sick call clinic were combined with the Naval Health Clinic operations moving from the Rivers Avenue location, placing all of Naval Health Clinic Charleston at one location.</p><br>
<p>The Hay Lake School is a historic schoolhouse in Scandia, Minnesota, United States, in use from 1896 to 1963. It is now operated by the Washington County Historical Society as a museum alongside the 1868 Johannes Erickson House. The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 for having local significance in the themes of architecture, education, and social history. It was nominated as Scandia&#39;s first and only surviving early school.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Hay Lake School is a small brick building with white trim. The gable roof is topped by a belfry. The main façade on the east has a porch with a decorative lattice frieze, a typical embellishment of the period.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The school district for this part of Washington County was organized in 1855, but classes were initially held in various local homes. In 1860 the district acquired the former Elim Lutheran Church, and classes were held there until 1890. This building is now preserved at the nearby Gammelgården Museum. Local residents around Scandia worked to construct the area&#39;s first purpose-built school in 1895. One of the lead contributors was Peter Rosell. While carrying a load of bricks intended for the project, however, he broke through ice on the St. Croix River and drowned.</p><br>
<p>The Hay Lake School was completed in 1896 and served continuously until 1963, when a new school building was constructed nearby. The old building was boarded up and stood vacant for years. In 1970 a group of local residents, many graduates of the school, decided to refurbish the building and open it for tours, helping it gain National Register status in the process. The Washington County Historical Society accepted management of the schoolhouse in 1974, moving the Johannes Erickson House onto the property to form a small museum complex near a 1900 monument to the first Swedish settlers in Minnesota. Four years later the historical society gained full title to the school by purchasing it from the Forest Lake School District.</p><br>
<p>Hillsborough Historic District is a national historic district located at Hillsborough, Orange County, North Carolina. The district encompasses 529 contributing buildings, 9 contributing sites, 13 contributing structures, and 2 contributing objects in the central business district and surrounding residential sections of Hillsborough. The district includes buildings dating to the late-18th and early-20th century and includes notable examples of Federal, Greek Revival, and Italianate style architecture. Located in the district are the separately listed Burwell School, Eagle Lodge, Hazel-Nash House, Heartsease, Montrose, Nash Law Office, Nash-Hooper House, Old Orange County Courthouse, Ruffin-Roulhac House, Sans Souci, and St. Matthew&#39;s Episcopal Church and Churchyard. Other notable buildings include Seven Hearths, the Presbyterian Church , Methodist Church , First Baptist Church , Twin Chimneys, and the Berry Brick House.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1973.</p><br>
<p>The Carlowville Historic District is a historic district in the community of Carlowville, Alabama. The historic district covers 780 acre and is centered on Alabama State Route 89 and Dallas County roads 4, 47 and 417. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 18, 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Carlowville Historic District was nominated to the National Register as a "pleasant blending of nineteenth and twentieth century architecture in quiet, rural environment." The earlier buildings are predominantly wood-frame structures. They range from elegant mansions to plain folk houses. Some of the homes continue to be owned by descendants of the original builders who</p><br>
<p>came here from the Atlantic seaboard nearly 200 years ago.</p><br>
<p>Several of the more substantial houses were built atop brick basements. Two of these structures had their original brick ground floor removed and were subsequently lowered during the twentieth century. Architectural historians have attributed this to dampness and the poor quality of the local brick.</p><br>
<h2>Contributing structures</h2><br>
<p>At the time of the nomination, the Carlowville Historic District contained 21 contributing properties, built primarily in the Colonial Georgian, Federal, and Greek Revival styles. Greek Revival is the dominate style. The contributing buildings recognized by architectural historians as the most important structures to the district include: the Rumpt-Alison House (built circa 1840), a two-story Greek Revival-style house with a two-tiered portico; the Alison-Wade House (1849), a two-story Colonial Georgian-style house with a small one-story porch; St. Pauls Episcopal Church (1838), with a Greek Revival-style tetrastyle Doric portico and late nineteenth century Gothic Revival-style bell tower and windows; Carlowville Baptist Church (circa 1837), an end-gabled Federal-style building with a central entrance porch; the Lee-Wade House (1841), an end-gabled two-story Greek Revival-style house with a monumental portico that originally had a brick ground story; the Alison-Youngblood House (1833), remodeled in the Neoclassical style during the 1920s; the St. Pauls Episcopal Church Rectory (mid-nineteenth century), a one-story Greek Revival-style building that originally had a brick ground story; and the Calhoun Law Office (1840), a small Greek Revival-style professional building that was built by Judge James Martin Calhoun, a nephew of John C. Calhoun.</p><br>
<p>The Evansburg Historic District in Evansburg, Pennsylvania, United States, is a National Historic District designated by Congress with over 50 National Register properties dating from the early 18th through 19th century. Almost all of these properties are privately owned and in active use at this time. The Evansburg Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Evansburg is one of Americas earliest planned villages, being the conception of William Lane, whose will of 1732 left to the ministers that shall serve successively at St. James Church, "Forty two acres of land adjoining, which said land shall be laid out as commodious for a settlement as conveniently it may be without causing much damage to the remainder."</p><br>
<p>Evansburg is part of William Penn&#39;s Holy Experiment, where people lived in separate clusters according to their religious, cultural, and national heritage, but were linked together politically and economically in a common destiny that was to become the United States of America. Thus there were the German Lutherans in Trappe, the Welsh Baptists in Eagleville, the Scottish Presbyterians in Norriton, the English Quakers in Plymouth Meeting, the Dutch Mennonite along the Skippack, and the English Anglicans in Evansburg.</p><br>
<p>The village was at one time known as Hustletown for the "hustling" or "raffling" witnessed by two youngbloods who gave a cheer for Hustletown, according to legend. The nickname probably came from the fact that Hussel Town, an individual, owned land next to Edward Lane in 1773. Originally, the land was purchased on June 3, 1684 from Sachem Maughaugam, chief of the Lenape Native Americans. It was called "Pahkehoma" and later Anglicized to "Perkiomen", meaning "the place where grow the cranberries". "Skippack", the name of the other creek, means "a stagnant stream".</p><br>
<p>The Evans family, for whom the village is named, have written in history a record of remarkable achievement and fame. Evan Evans, the second minister at Christ Church, Philadelphia, received his Doctor of Divinity from Brasenose College, Oxford, and was sent by the Bishop of London to be the first Church of England minister in these parts. Owen Evans owned jointly with his cousin Oliver Evans the first steam-mill built in America at Pittsburgh, and later his factory in Evansburg produced large numbers of muskets for the War of 1812.</p><br>
<p>Dr. John Evans (a descendant?) was instrumental in founding Northwestern University, and the Chicago suburb in which it is located was named Evanston in his honor.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>According to the United States Census Bureau, the Census Designated Place has a total area of 1.5 square miles, all of it land. The nearby Evansburg State Park takes its name from the CDP.</p><br>
<h2>Significant contributing properties</h2><br>
<p>Some of the districts properties are architecturally or historically noteworthy in themselves. One, the Skippack Bridge, was listed on the National Register prior to the districts creation.</p><br>
<p>Heyser Homestead (Nedrow Eye Doctory and House) is located on Township Line Road, Evansburg. The nine acre property accommodates an elegant brownstone barn and several well-preserved outbuildings, including a root cellar, summer kitchen, smoke house, and well. This German farm belonged to the Hyser family for many years although title search has revealed that the house was associated with the well-know Nedrow family of Philadelphia. According to local tradition, the house contains vats that were used for the dyeing of uniforms during the Revolutionary War. The homestead is primarily significant for its excellent eighteenth century masonry and architecture and for the outstanding condition in which it remains today.</p><br>
<p>John Umstadt House, on Township Line Road, Evansburg, is a well-preserved example of eighteenth century architecture and is important for its association with famous families in the area of Evansburg. Umstat received the land from Mathias Van Bebber, who was granted it by William Penn in 1702.</p><br>
<p>Ann E. Casselberry House and Barn are located on Evansburg Road, north of the Germantown Pike. The house, built between 1798 and 1804, was sold to Ann E. Casselberry who vacated the adjacent Derrick Casselberry House to live in the new one after the death of her husband. The stone masonry of the house is notable as is the handsome barn on the property. Both are good examples of late eighteenth, early nineteenth century architecture. The property is still owned by the Casselberry family in the name of Anna Casselberry.</p><br>
<p>Paul Engle House is located on the bank of the Skippack Creek at 36 Evansburg Road, Evansburg. By the time of Paul Engle&#39;s death in 1795, the farm was well-established. In the deed received by Daniel Rees in 1795, mention of water rights indicated the importance of the Skippack Creek in the economic and technological development of the area.</p><br>
<p>Society for the Propagation of the Gospel School House (today the St. James Community Center) is situated on the northeast corner of Evansburg Road and the Germantown Pike. The small, stone-plastered building which predates 1792 was remodeled to resemble the St. James Church, Perkiomen of 1721. The building is surrounded by gravesites of Revolutionary War soldiers buried after the Battle of Germantown and colonists&#39; graves found there date from as early as 1723. Paul Engle willed money to the school to aid in the education of poor children—an unusual practice for the time. In 1838 the school was leased as a public school and may have been one of the first such schools in the nation. Other uses to which the building has been put include the housing of a printing press used in the production of an early English translation of the Bible, as well as serving as a mortuary, chapel and a library. The building today houses the Evansburg Free Library.</p><br>
<p>St. James Church, Perkiomen, located at 3768 Germantown Pike, was one of the founding churches of the Episcopal Church in America. The original stone church was erected in a cemetery in 1721, but a log structure may have occupied the property as early as 1708. In 1843 the present church was built utilizing the stones and perhaps the two windows on the facade from the old building which was torn down to make room for the expansion of the cemetery. The original datestone of the 1721 church is set in the facade of the present one and the initials of the Church wardens of the time are easily legible. According to Professor Anthony N. E. Garvan of the University of Pennsylvania, the plastered stone church represents "a very moderate and conservative adaptation of the Gothic revival in the facade and the Oxford Movement in interior furnishings." The St. James Church, Perkiomen is an example, in excellent condition, of a rural 19th century place of worship.</p><br>
<p>Funkite Cemetery located south of the Germantown Pike on a hill across from the Skippack Creek Road, serves as a memorial to Mennonite Minister Christian Funk, excommunicated from his church in 1777 for his advocacy of payment of the Revolutionary War tax. The Mennonites are a pacifist sect, but Funk argued that suppression of the colonial revolt by the British might jeopardize the religious freedom which the Mennonites had migrated to America to find he viewed payment of the tax as incumbent upon Mennonites who valued a reconciliation after they were driven from the church, but neither side would compromise its deeply held beliefs. By 1850, the last of the Funkites had died out. The cemetery contains 32 markers, the earliest dating from 1815. Although the land is overgrown, the stones remain in excellent condition.</p><br>
<p>Glebe House, 3814 Germantown Pike, part of which dates 1737, is significant for the role it played before and after the Battle of Germantown in September 1777. The term Glebe House first appears in 1764 when the building is described as "the Glebe House belonging to ye Societys Mission of Radnor and Perquihoma." The term Glebe refers to a farm on which the minister raised his own food so as to be self-supporting. On September 20, 1777, the 3-story plastered stone house (the present day rectory of St. James Church) was the scene of a war council of Washingtons troops/ Local historians assert that soldiers were quartered there after the battle. The building is representative of 18th century country architecture — typical of the early English builders of Evansburg. It is also important as one of the earliest Glebe Houses and farms in the Anglican Church in America still standing.</p><br>
<p>Samuel D. Shupe House, 136 Evansburg Road, was the home of a Philadelphia merchant. This two-story plastered stone house was built in the early 1840s and serves as an excellent example of mid-nineteenth century architecture of this region of Montgomery County.</p><br>
<p>Isaac Mester House, 138 Evansburg Road, is a two-story, two bedroom plastered fieldstone house with end chimneys. The home was built in 1869 by Mester on land that at one time belonged to St. James Church. The home is an excellent example of mid-nineteenth century architecture of this region of Montgomery County.</p><br>
<p>George Coulter House, located along Germantown Pike, is another example of early nineteenth century architecture in Montgomery County. This home, built by Coulter in 1817, is a two-story plastered fieldstone farmhouse with two end chimneys and a pent roof.</p><br>
<p>Stephen Rush House, located at 3851 Germantown Pike, is a two-story fieldstone structure that served as a center of food and drink to travelers along Germantown Pike. This Inn was built about 1803 on land purchased from St. James Church.</p><br>
<p>Evansburg Inn, located at 3833 Germantown Pike, is a large, two-story plastered fieldstone inn with end chimneys. The inn was built between 1803 and 1806 by Jacob Fronefield. Fronefield later sold the inn to George Hocker, a "yeoman" from Whitemarsh. Several owners later the property was purchased by Stephen Rush. Rush also owned an additional inn along the Germantown Pike. Rush was a descendant of Dr. Nejamin Rush, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the father of American psychiatry.</p><br>
<p>John Keyser House, located at 3847 Germantown Pike, is a two-story plastered fieldstone structure with end chimneys. Its architecture is similar to many other early homes in this region of Montgomery County. This structure was built by John Keyser between 1799 and 1804. A blacksmith shop was located to the rear of the house and was always busy due to its proximity to the Reading–Philadelphia Turnpike. The property was later owned by Ephraim Boyer, a member of the Boyer family that founded Boyertown. The house was also owned by Henry K. Boyer, an attorney and one-time Speaker of the House for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.</p><br>
<p>Owen Evans House, located at 3856 Germantown Pike, is a two-story plastered fieldstone structure that has been modernized somewhat. The structure was built by Owen Evans between 1784 and 1805. Evans was one of the most famous gunmakers in the United States. In 1797 he received a contract from Governor Mifflin and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for 1,200 guns. These arms were used in the War of 1812.</p><br>
<p>Changing House, located on the east bank of the Skippack Creek, is a country version of a Philadelphia town house. It is constructed of plastered fieldstone with the central door flanked by two windows and three windows on the second floor. Samuel bard, a Welsh stonemason, built the house on land purchased in 1811. The house was sold in 1832 to the First Regular Baptist Church for use as their first church and baptismal "changing house." The Changing House was used until 1912 when a modern pool was constructed some distance from the stream.</p><br>
<p>Keyser&#39;s Mill, located on Skippack Creek Road and Germantown Pike, is a four-story structure located adjacent to the Creek. The building is constructed of plastered fieldstone and fenestration consists of rows of three windows. The gable end faces the Skippack Creek Road. The earliest legal mention of the mill was in 1849 when Daniel Croll granted the grist mill to Jacob and Philip Croll. Prior to its purchase for the Evansburg State Park, the property belonged to Byron Keyser. The mill is important because it is larger than the typical two-story mill of the eighteenth century. This mill is the last of the water-powered mills in the area.</p><br>
<p>Peter Williams Tavern, located on Germantown Pike at Skippack Creek, is a three-story plastered stone structure. Fenestration consists of three windows across the two upper floors and two windows and an entrance door placed to the right on the first floor. In the fashion of Philadelphia houses there are no first or second story windows on the side, only one small attic window placed off center. This house is said to be the place in which the planning for the Skippack Bridge took place in 1792. Williams acquired the property in 1790 from Mary Bramwell.</p><br>
<p>Skippack Bridge, already listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is an eight-arch stone bridge that was built in 1792 to cross the Skippack Creek on Germantown Pike in Lower Providence Township. The thirty-three foot wide bridge has carried traffic since its completion in 1792. The original datestone reads, "Skippack Bridge, 1792," and bears the names of Mathew Potts, John Mann and Conrad Boyer. The bridge was repaired in 1874 and a second datestone bears among others the name of John Stevens, one of the commissioners. The bridge was funded by monies of which at least a part was collected by lottery in 1762. During the February term, 1792, a court-appointed six man jury was instructed to lay out a road and a bridge easily accessible from either the present Manatawny Road or Germantown Pike and the Norristown Road. One of the points of reference used in surveying the bridge was the Peter Williams Tavern which also became the location for the various board meetings during the construction period.</p><br>
<h2>Other notable structures</h2><br>
<p>Doctors Grigg House, thought to be constructed prior to 1813 by Jacob Fronefield, Blacksmith, who built many houses in Evansburg. He received the land between Germantown Pike and Old Baptist Church Road from Lewis Schrack in 1806 and sold the messuage in 1813 to Joseph Henry, Merchant, with the right of Daniel Croll to dig a tail race across the property. From 1842 and for nearly half a century, the stone house belonged to Dr. John Ryland Grigg, professor at the nearby Pennsylvania Female College, and his son, Dr. Jacob Grigg. Located at 3764 Germantown Pike, it is still maintained as a private residence.</p><br>
<p>Jacob Zollers House, constructed around 1844. Zollers was responsible for much of the stonework done in Evansburg.</p><br>
<p>Evansburg Methodist Church and the Church House, built some time prior to 1842, perhaps by George Coulter and was sold to trustees of the church in 1842</p><br>
<p>Abraham Harman House is a typical example of 19th-century stone masonry in the planned village of Evansburg. Located at 3865 Germantown Pike, it was sold by Abraham Harman to David Munshower in 1839.</p><br>
<p>Christian Dull House of square German styling, built late in the 18th century at 3861 Germantown Pike, is claimed significant because of early commercial activities, including a wheelwright shop and store.</p><br>
<p>Christian Rekup House, used by William Casselberry as a residence and woodworking shop in 1856, was built in the late 18th century and once owned, in 1797, by Nicholas Custer. Rekup was an early Dutch landowner in Evansburg.</p><br>
<p>Edward Evans House, built in 1806 on land partially purchased from St. James Church at 3845 Germantown Pike, was built by Edward Evans as a -story stucco house in two sections. It contains a gabled roof, exterior brick chimney, and frame shed.</p><br>
<p>Samuel D. Patterson Jr. House, built around 1856, originally had a mansard roof but was altered to give an English appearance. The land for the house was received by Patterson from Isaac Christman, keeper of the Evansburg Inn, in 1855.</p><br>
<p>Keyser Storehouse is a Victorian adaptation of an English house with the addition of a large front dormer. It was built circa 1867 and is a duplicate of Isaac Casselberry&#39;s later home in the east.</p><br>
<p>Vandersloot House, one of two residences across from the Evansburg Inn, was built by a Vandersloot before 1877 on Germantown Pike. The property was sold to Edward Green in 1899 and is currently maintained as a private residence.</p><br>
<p>Weber House contains similar architecture as the Vandersloot House, built in the latter part of the 19th century. The home belonged to John Fulton, farmer in 1805, whose property is called a plantation.</p><br>
<p>Abraham Everhart House was built on the Glebe property around 1844 and, although in poor condition, continues to be used as a residence.</p><br>
<p>William Casselberry House was built on Germantown Pike around 1872. Comparable to the A. Everhart Casselberry stone house, it was built on Glebe lands by Abraham Everhart between 1844 and 1857.</p><br>
<p>Daniel Croll Farm, built before 1835, with the house belonging to the gunsmith Daniel Croll. The property was described as 57 acres with a small stream. The land was highly cultivated and included a tenant house, barn, stable, mills, an orchard, and a springhouse. Roll had acquired the land from fellow Funkite Christian Gorwals in 1800. In 1835, Adam Slemmer described the property as situated 24 miles from Philadelphia, containing 67 acres of land, about 5 acres of excellent meadow, and a small stream passing through the same. The land is in a high state of cultivation, conveniently divided into fields and all under good fence. The improvements are a large two-story house with three rooms on each floor, a tenant house on the premises, a large barn stone stable high, the remainder frame, grist and plaster mill, an excellent apple orchard, and never failing spring water with a stone spring house over it.</p><br>
<p>Four Funkite Houses on the corners of Germantown Pike and Grange Avenue. Two homes were built prior to 1811, the third had been the Funk store with mansard roof, and the other was the Abraham Funk house. The two dwellings built before 1811 are listed on the southern side of Germantown Pike and 1811 is the date Abraham and Anna Funk granted the messuage and store to Christian Rosenberry.</p><br>
<p>Samuel Bard House, currently owned by Evansburg State Park on Old Baptist Road, was built in 1832 by stonemason Samuel Bard and modeled after a Philadelphia row home with two windows on the second floor above the central door and a third single window. The house was sold to Andrew Dewees in 1824 and the barn was burned in 1969. Samuel Bard built the stone house on the west bank of the Skippack in 1832 before turning over his former home across the creek to the Baptist Church for its changing house. Bard has purchased the land from Henry Loucks, a lawyer, in 1831, and sold it with a messuage in 1834 to Abraham Dewiest.</p><br>
<p>Letitia Penn House, again following the Philadelphia style row home prototype, was built around 1813 as the little house in the Welsh Baptist community. The earliest south wing, built around 1820, is similar to the Leticia Penn house, has interior single room, and a large fireplace. The middle section duplicates the Changing House with central hall, while the northern addition follows the German architectural style of the northern Skippack Valley.</p><br>
<p>Jesse Bean, Jr. House, built by a carpenter before 1877 on Evansburg Road and once covered with slate.</p><br>
<p>Fry Family House, constructed circa 1877, belonged to the Fry family and is still maintained as a residence in relatively poor condition.</p><br>
<p>Jacob Cope House, a blacksmith shop on Grange Avenue, was constructed circa 1785. It is the house which Catharine Haines, daughter of Dorothea Cope, who had married into that well-known Germantown family, conveyed in 1785 to her relative Jacob Cope. It is currently the Forge Antiques Shop.</p><br>
<p>Samuel and Benjamin Nutter House, built around 1835 and bought by tobacconist Samuel Nutter of Philadelphia in 1855 and sold to Benjamin Nutter a year later. It is speculated that its sale four years later for less money indicated a possible failure of an early attempt to grow tobacco in the Skippack Valley.</p><br>
<p>George Evans House, erected before 1854 on Grange Avenue, is listed as a good example of a Federal style house</p><br>
<p>William Rhoades House, built sometime after 1835 on the northwest corner of Grange Avenue and Ridge Pike, was purchased from William Pennick by William Rhoades and his wife Elizabeth. The house, typical of many Ridge Avenue homes in Eagleville, represents the later architectural and community development of the Welsh Baptists.</p><br>
<p>Christian Rosenberry Home, located on Grange Avenue, built in the late 18th century, is the home of a successful Funkite and Constable of Lower Providence Township.</p><br>
<p>Craddock Massif is a mountain massif in the Sentinel Range of the Ellsworth Mountains, in the Chilean claim of West Antarctica.</p><br>
<h2>Location and highest point</h2><br>
<p>Craddock Massif is located at the southeastern side of Vinson Massif, between Hammer Col and Karnare Col linking it to Vinson Massif and the southern Sentinel Range respectively. The highest point of Craddock Massif is Mount Rutford, a sharp peak that rises to 4,477 m. The Craddock Massif also includes (from north to south) Bugueño Pinnacle, Rada Peak and Mount Craddock.</p><br>
<h2>Discovery and naming</h2><br>
<p>Sentinel Range was first sighted and photographed from the air on November 23, 1935, by Lincoln Ellsworth. The entire range, including Craddock Massif, was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from aerial photography taken by the USA Navy, 1958–61.</p><br>
<p>This massif was originally named "Mount Craddock" by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in 1965, but subsequent maps limited the name to the massif’s southernmost peak, a modification that was adopted by US-ACAN in 2006 when it approved the name Craddock Massif. The massif is named after Professor J. Campbell Craddock (1930–2006), the leader of the 1962–63 University of Minnesota geological expedition to the Sentinel and Heritage Ranges of the Ellsworth Mountains.</p><br>

<p>The Codington County Heritage Museum  is a museum located at 27 First Avenue Southeast, Watertown, South Dakota, in the Carnegie Free Public Library building.</p><br>
<p>The Carnegie Library was built in Watertown in 1906 through a grant from the Carnegie Foundation and functioned as a library until 1967 when operations moved to a new building further east in town next to what was then the newly built Watertown Senior High School. A youth group briefly occupied the Carnegie Library building before its use by the Codington County Historical Society.</p><br>
<h2>Codington County Historical Society</h2><br>
<p>The museum is maintained by the Codington County Historical Society. The group was founded in 1970 and was officially incorporated in 1974. They put out a bi-monthly publication for paid members entitled the Codington County Courier. In the past, the publication was called Wagon Wheels.</p><br>
<p>Old Ohavi Zedek Synagogue  is a historic synagogue building at Archibald and Hyde Streets in Burlington, Vermont. It was built in 1885 for Ohavi Zedek, Vermont&#39;s oldest Jewish congregation, and is currently occupied by Congregation Ahavath Gerim. The building, a distinctive vernacular interpretation of the Gothic Revival, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The original Ohavi Zedek building stands at the corner of Archibald and Hyde Streets in Burlingtons Old North End neighborhood. It is a rectangular brick building with a gabled roof and Gothic Revival features. The front facade has arched windows flanking an arched entry, accessed by side-facing stairs. Above the entrance is a round window with a Star of David. The building sides also have arched windows, with small oculus windows interspersed above them, which provide illumination for the womens gallery.</p><br>
<p>The building was erected in 1885, and is among the oldest synagogue buildings still standing in the United States. Originally finished in wood, it was clad in brick in 1902, when it was enlarged. It was again enlarged in 1928, at which time the present Torah ark was built. It has a Classical design, with a depiction of the Ten Commandments flanked by gilded lions and pineapple finials.</p><br>
<p>Mount Champaquí, is a mountain located in the western province of Argentina, Córdoba. It is the highest peak in the province, with a height of 2884 m.</p><br>
<p>Mount Champaquí, is located in the westernmost of Sierras de Cordoba known as Sierras Grandes immediately east of this summit is the Valle de Calamuchita while extending west of the Valle de Traslasierra.</p><br>
<p>This mountain has moderately steep slopes to the west, with its eastern foothills of the softest. In the vicinity of the summit there is a small lake that freeze from about late April to early August, it is believed that this gap has given rise to the name of the hill which means, in the language of the Indian comechingón: Water-in-the-head / Water at the top of the hill</p><br>
<p>From this summit you can admire the vast landscape between mountains, pampas, forests, valleys and lakes.</p><br>
<p>The mount and its surroundings belong to Monumento Natural Champaquí.</p><br>
<p>The eastern slope of this mount is accessed as follows: From the RPN No. 5 in Santa Rosa de Calamuchita takes the RPN No. 228 until Yacanto de Calamuchita since there is a path of land reaches the base of the hill. Approximate distances: Yacanto de Calamuchita: 42 km. Santa Rosa de Calamuchita: 70 km. Embalse: 100 km.</p><br>
<p>On the western side, i.e. from the valley raslasierra access is steep and usually have the base of the town of Villa de Las Rosas.</p><br>
<p>The Davis Town Meeting House  is a historic building located in Coram, New York, United States. For most of the 19th century, it served as the town meeting place for the Town of Brookhaven.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Constructed around 1750, the original owner of the house was likely Elijah Davis (1727–1802).</p><br>
<p>In 1790, Brookhaven Town&#39;s leaders decided to move the seat of local government from Setauket to the more central location of Coram. Starting about 1800, the Davis home served as the location of the annual April town meeting, and hosted the meeting over 80 times, until 1885, when the town was divided into election districts.</p><br>
<p>Until the early 2000s, the house was owned almost continuously by direct male descendents of Foulk Davis, who came to Long Island in 1642.</p><br>
<p>The Brookhaven Town Board designated the house as an official town landmark on April 15, 1986. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 15, 2001. In the fall of 2009, much needed renovation work to the building was begun.</p><br>
<p>The Jesse Lee Home for Children is a former home for displaced children on Swetmann Avenue in Seward, Alaska, United States. It was operated by the United Methodist Church from its opening in 1926 until the building suffered damage from a 1964 earthquake and operations were relocated to a new building in Anchorage.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Prior to 1926, the Methodist Church operated children&#39;s homes in Nome and Unalaska. The facility at Unalaska, established in 1889 and also functioning as a boarding school, was called the Jesse Lee Home.</p><br>
<p>In the late 1910s and early 1920s, the Spanish flu pandemic was particularly deadly in remote native villages, leaving more displaced children. The old missions were overfilled, in disrepair, and transportation of supplies and children to these remote locations was unreliable and expensive. Seward was selected as a new location because at that point in time, it was Alaska&#39;s largest port and transportation point. Transportation costs would be lower due to regularly scheduled routes directly from Seattle.</p><br>
<p>Child residents were mainly natives from the Aleutian Islands (Aleut) and Seward Peninsula (Eskimo). In the first year after the school opened in 1926, resident Benny Benson won a competition to design the territorial flag. His design is still in use as the state flag. Benson, who was moved from the previous home in Unalaska, was from the village of Chignik. He was a 13-year-old student who won the competition out of over 700 entries. Fanny Kearns, a young Eskimo woman who was employed as a seamstress at the JLH sewed the first Alaskan flag out of left over cloth. On July 9, 1927, the Balto Building was dedicated and the new flag was raised for the first time at the Jesse Lee Home. The date is still commemorated in the state as Alaska Flag Day.</p><br>
<p>The site consisted of three main buildings connected by arcades and several smaller buildings. Original construction included two dormitories, Jewel Guard Hall and Goode Hall. The Balto Building was added between the two dormitories and provided dining space and a large kitchens. In addition to boys dormitories, Jewel Guard Hall held a shop, vocational classrooms, a darkroom, classrooms, library, and gymnasium. Goode Hall served as the girls dormitory and administrative offices. Additional buildings on the property included a superintendents house, barn, schoolhouse, residence, garage, and cold storage. During World War II, the residents were moved to other locations. The primary buildings were painted camouflage and a temporary Fort Raymond Army Base occupied part of the homes property.</p><br>
<p>The home reopened after the war but rather than attending class there, the students attended nearby Bayview Elementary and Seward High School, and government-provided food replaced the gardens and livestock that filled the 100+ acres. The number of residents declined from its high of 120 to between 30 and 40.</p><br>
<p>An earthquake in 1964 severely affected Seward and much of the complex. Goode Hall, the largest of the buildings, was heavily damaged and required demolition. The church opened a new orphanage in Anchorage and the Seward home was closed. In 1966 the property was sold to the city, then to a series of private owners before being foreclosed upon due to unpaid utility district assessments by the City of Seward again. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.</p><br>
<h2>Restoration effort</h2><br>
<p>The Friends of the Jesse Lee Home, a nonprofit organization, has been set up with the goal of restoring the site. Once restored, the Jesse Lee Home will be used as a public statewide leadership charter high school.</p><br>
<p>In 2002 the Alaska State Legislature passed House Bill No. 96 "An Act relating to acquisition and development of the Jesse Lee Home; and providing for an effective date."</p><br>
<p>In 2003 a Department of Natural Resources study found that the building was structurally sound. In 2008 the Alaska Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development awarded the Alaska Community Foundation a $1,000,000 grant to repair and stabilize the Jesse Lee Home. The Friends of the Jesse Lee Home was named the entity responsible for the ongoing operation and maintenance of the project. Since then the State of Alaska has appropriated a total of $8,000,000 towards developing how the Balto School will use the building, prosecuting A&E, and renovating the portions of the Jesse Lee Home that are still standing.</p><br>
<p>The Sukanen Ship Pioneer Village and Museum has many displays of life on the Prairies including many historic buildings that have been moved from surrounding communities, set up to mimic that of a small Farming Town from the early 1900s to 1930s. The park is located south of the City of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan on Highway 2.</p><br>
<p>The car club at Moose Jaw agreed to the restoration of Tom Sukanen&#39;s ship at their museum site. Tom Sukanen was a Finnish homesteader who settled near Birsay who hoped to travel home again on his ship he assembled near the South Saskatchewan River.</p><br>
<p>The Sukanen Ship Pioneer Village and Museum features a typical village replete with pioneer artifacts and tractors, cars and trucks, even a McCabe&#39;s Grain Co. grain elevator built in 1913 standing approximately 68 feet (21 m) tall. The elevator was moved from Mawer in 2007 to its new location, nearly 60 km southeast of its original location. The village is restored by the Moose Jaw car club, and is run by volunteers.</p><br>
<p>The John Smith House is located on Albany Avenue  in Kingston, New York, United States. It is a wood frame house in the Italianate architectural style built in the mid-19th century.</p><br>
<p>It has remained relatively intact since then. In 2002 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The house is on a deep, narrow, level lot at the corner of the busy intersection of Albany Avenue and Chandler Drive (Interstate 587/NY 28). This junction marks a boundary between the mixed-use uptown area around the Stockade District and the residential neighborhoods of Albany and neighboring streets. The George J. Smith House is to the east, with the Sharp Burial Ground about 300 ft further away on the other side of the street. Both properties are also listed on the Register.</p><br>
<p>The Smith house is a two-story, three-by-three-bay clapboard-sided frame structure on a raised brick foundation with a moderately pitched hipped roof. The roofline has broad overhanging eaves, a molded cornice and paired brackets.</p><br>
<p>A full-length porch runs along the first story of the south (front) facade. It has a similarly pitched hip roof with a molded, dentilled cornice. The roof is supported by four wooden posts on octagonal plinths. Behind all three bays have French doors, molded cornices and louvered shutters. The second-story windows have similar trim.</p><br>
<p>On the northernmost two bays of the first story on the east is a projecting bay window. The north (rear) elevation has similar windows and an enclosed porch. The west, facing what is now the end of the interstate, is the least decorated of the facades, with asymmetrical windows and an enclosed cellar stair.</p><br>
<p>The main entrance, two paneled glass and wood doors with a large transom, leads to a broad central hall with large parlors on either side. Here and on the second floor, many of the original finishings, including plaster and wood, remain.</p><br>
<p>At the end of the driveway to the east is a modern garage in concrete block. It is not considered a contributing resource to the historic character of the property.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house is first recorded in an 1870 map as the home of a Mrs. C.S. Smith. A city directory from ten years later clarifies that this is Catherine S. Smith, described as the widow of John Smith. By the early 20th century it had passed to other owners, and has remained a private residence ever since.</p><br>
<p>Originally the house had a cupola in the center of the roof. It was removed in the early 20th century after it was damaged. There have been no significant changes since.</p><br>
<p>Bethany Congregational Church is a United Church of Christ house of worship located in Thomasville, Georgia in south Georgia&#39;s Thomas County. It was founded on February 1, 1891, by the American Missionary Association as the chapel and worship center of the Allen Normal and Industrial School, an educational institution for African American students. The school operated from 1885 to 1933, and the church remained after the school property was razed in 1935.</p><br>
<p>In 1985, the church was added to the National Register of Historical Places.</p><br>
<p>Civil rights leader Andrew Young, who earned a divinity degree from Hartford Theological Seminary in Connecticut, accepted the pastorate of Bethany Congregational Church in 1955. He served as pastor of Evergreen Congregational Church in adjacent Grady County during 1957-59; Evergreen is also NRHP-listed.</p><br>
<p>Harmar is a historic neighborhood in the city of Marietta, Ohio, United States. Located at the western side of the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio Rivers, it grew up around the early Fort Harmar in the 1780s, being settled in conjunction with Marietta. After a period of forming part of Marietta, it existed separately beginning in 1837 before rejoining the mother city in 1890. Connected by bridge to the rest of the city, it retains much of its nineteenth-century architecture and landscape, and most of the neighborhood is now a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first pioneers of Marietta landed in April 1788, beginning by building cabins and planting crops along the river. They generally lived on the eastern side of the Muskingum, across from Fort Harmar, but their farms were close enough to the fort that garrison troops routinely watched their farming activities, which itself was reincorporated by an act of March 13, 1837. Believing the bills provisions to be in accord with the desires of the residents, a legislative committee found itself to have been deceived after residents resolved almost unanimously to reject many of the provisions, and five days after Mariettas incorporation bill passed, the first act was repealed and replaced by a new act drafted to reflect the resolution of Harmars electorate. This status continued until 1890, when the two municipalities were re-merged. The same year marked the end of Harmars own legal school district, separate from the districts of Marietta and Marietta Township, which had been formed in 1866.</p><br>
<h2>Landscape</h2><br>
<p>Architecturally, Harmar is a good example of Ohio communities planned in the nineteenth century. Its grid plan begins at Fort Harmar and proceeds along both rivers away from their confluence, with the wide tree-lined streets being oriented north-south and east-west rather than paralleling the rivers. Houses in the neighborhood include examples of various nineteenth-century architectural styles; the Federal, Greek Revival, and Gothic Revival styles are most significant, although the bridge has since been replaced by a newer span that opened in September 2000. State Route 7 formerly traversed the neighborhood, although the opening of the nearby Washington Street Bridge facilitated its rerouting away from the Putnam Street Bridge.</p><br>
<h2>Historic district</h2><br>
<p>In 1974, 60 acre of Harmar was designated the Harmar Historic District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Forty-two buildings, plus the fort site and one object, were included in the district as contributing properties. In 1993, the district was expanded by the addition of more than two hundred contributing properties over an area of approximately 150 acre; the original district protected areas closer to the fort, while the later designation expanded the district to the base of the bluff at the far edges of the neighborhood. Not all of the contributing properties are still in existence, as the destroyed Putnam Street Bridge was included in the district, but the replacement span was designed to be compatible with the architecture of Harmar to the west and the larger Marietta Historic District at its eastern end.</p><br>
