<p>The Manomet Mills are a historic textile mill complex on the north side of New Bedford, Massachusetts. They are located between Riverside Avenue and the Acushnet River, north of Manoment Street and the Whitman Mills. The complex consists of three Classical Revival brick buildings, built between 1903 and 1907. The main building, Mill No. 1, is a 54-bay three story structure that was built in 1903. It is attached to Mill No. 2 , of similar size, by a single story brick structure. The third building is the Mill No. 2 Department Room , a two story brick building that was originally connected to the other two via overhead bridges, now removed. The mill complex was the main operating site of the Manoment Mill Company, which produced cotton yarn until about 1928. The buildings were sold in that year to the Delaware Rayon Company, which went bankrupt in 1954. Mill No. 2 was then used by the Acushnet Process Company for the manufacture of golf balls, while Mill No. 1 continued to be used for rayon production, a chemically intensive and environmentally hazardous process.</p><br>
<p>Mills Nos. 1 and 2 were occupied by the Cliftex Corporation. They have since been redeveloped into residences. The mill complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.</p><br>
<p>Trollskogen  is a windswept, grazed pine forest and nature reserve in the northeast corner of the Baltic island Öland, Sweden . The forest is on a promontory with an exposed shingle beach on the eastern side, the side of the Baltic Sea, and a sheltered bay on the western side, of Grankullaviken bay. The 100 hectare reserve, formerly a Domänreservat,  is part of the Böda Kronopark. Its southeastern boundary is also the north border of the nature reserve Bödakusten östra.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Öland has a unique ecology containing many endemic and rare plants not found anywhere else. Trollskogen is characterized by its lichen-covered pine trees; those close to the exposed shore (a shingle beach) have been deformed by the wind. The interior of the forest contains pine trees, up to 200 years old, interspersed with old oaks, a remnant of the former grazing pastures in the Boda forests. Today, cattle still graze here, ensuring the biodiversity of the ecosystem, native grass and herb diversity. The western edge is formed by the grazed and forested areas of the Grankullaviken bay.</p><br>
<p>The old oaks and pines are a rich habitat for lichens, insects, fungi, and mosses. The rich flora of the reserve includes endangered and rare species such as Pachyphiale carneola, Calicium abietinum, and Sphinctrina. More common plants include burr chervil, Prince&#39;s pine, and Baltic wormwood.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The oldest human traces in Trollskogen are some 15 cairns and stone circles. Grankullavik, formerly called Örboviken, was a naval base in the 15th century, dominating much of the central Baltic Sea. Traces of fortifications remain to the east and west, and a stone wall (possibly used to demarcate a hunting domain), some 230 ft long and dating from the reign of King John III (1537&ndash;1592), remains to the south.</p><br>
<p>The eastern shore is the site of the wreck of the Swiks, a schooner that was wrecked on the coast on 21 December 1926; its crew of seven escaped in a lifeboat.</p><br>
<h2>Visitor information</h2><br>
<p>The area has three hiking trails, with signage, one of which is accessible for strollers. A nature center at the parking area provides information on the area and its surroundings.</p><br>
<p>Grankullaviken  is a shallow bay at the northern tip of Öland, Sweden, located in Böda socken, Borgholm Municipality. The bay is almost completely enclosed by two headlands and a few small shoal islands . Grankullavik is also the name of a village on the bay. The lighthouse Långe Erik on the Stora grundet island is officially named Ölands norra udde , even though the western headland extends a bit further north than the island upon which it stands. The eastern headland is the site of the windswept forest and nature reserve Trollskogen.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In medieval times the bay was also referred to as Örehamn, and was probably important already in prehistoric times. This part of Öland was an important landing point for merchants in northern Kalmar County, and much of the shipping toward Gotland passed through this area as well. The bay and its port were of paramount importance to the economy of Boda. In modern times; Grankullaviken was important for the shipping of timber.</p><br>
<p>The three small shoal islands (Stora grundet, Borren, and Lilla grundet) have a history of human habitation as well. Stora grundet is the location of the lighthouse, and Lilla grundet is the site of a chapel dedicated to St. Olav and an abandoned cemetery. Records from the Linköping diocese dating from 1515 mention a chapel Sancti Olaui in Böda, but there are no further details; it is likely that stones from the chapel were used in the construction of the lighthouse.</p><br>
<h3>Harbor</h3><br>
<p>Lumber was shipped from Nabbelund (a village just below Långe Erik) into the 1950s, when the mill closed down. In 2007 the harbor was prepared for ferry service to Gotland; remains of the old pier were inventoried and preparations made for new infrastructure. Ferry service since 1959 was provided intermittently by the converted cargo ship Nordpol, sailing between Nabbelund and Gotland (Klintehamn or Visby).</p><br>
<p>The marina and fishing port of Grankullaviken at Nabbelund became defunct in March 2008. After a collision in Nynashamn between two ferries operated by Destination Gotland in July 2009, the ferry service established in 2007 ended in July 23, 2009.</p><br>
<h2>Fishing</h2><br>
<p>Grankullaviken&#39;s sheltered location is attractive to fishermen who fish mainly for pike, bass, and trout, besides garfish, flatfish, sik, and ide.</p><br>
<p>The Elsasser Bakery is a building at 1802 and 1804 Vinton Street in South Omaha, Nebraska. The building was built in 1923 for the William L. Elsasser Bakery. The Elsasser name is carved into a stone panel at the top of the red brick building. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006 as part of the admission of the Vinton Street Commercial Historic District. The building&#39;s main occupant is currently the River City Saloon.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Elsasser family were bakers from the town of Vaihingen, Wurttemberg, Germany. After arriving in Omaha in the early 1880s, the family patriarch, Christian G. Elsasser, opened the first Elsasser family bakery at 709 Leavenworth Street. The bakery was appropriately named The Leavenworth Street Bakery and appears in the 1883 Wolfes Omaha City Directory. Around the late 1890s, William moved the bakery to 2416 South 19th Street. In 1904, the bakery operation was moved to its final location at 1802 Vinton Street. At the time, the building was a wood-frame structure previously occupied by another bakery. William Elsassers family conveniently moved to a two-story home behind the bakery at 2706 South 18th Street.</p><br>
<p>When William L. Elsasser died unexpectedly on July 27, 1914, his widow, Susanna, continued to run the bakery with the assistance of other family members. After Susanna Elsasser died in 1926, sons William J. and Carl L. Elsasser took over bakery operations. Currently, the main occupant of the building is the River City Saloon.</p><br>
<p>The Elsasser Bakery building is a two-story red brick commercial vernacular building. In addition to the Elsasser name carved into a stone panel at the top of the building, other decorative aspects of the building include a stone-capped parapet roof, brick banding, window hoods and stone sills. The center window on the second story is bricked in. When the Elsasser Bakery was in operation there was a large front awning imprinted with "1802 Elsasser&#39;s Bakery".</p><br>
<p>The Elsasser Bakery was a neighborhood bakery serving the residents surrounding it. The bakery&#39;s specialties were Vienna and German rye bread. The value of the plant and the equipment was estimated at $2,500.</p><br>
<p>The Elsasser family was known throughout Omaha for their large, annual family reunions. The first Elsasser reunion was held on November 1, 1913, across the street from the bakery at Miller&#39;s Hall at 1724 Vinton Street.</p><br>
<p>A stained glass window as a memorial to William L. Elsasser was installed by the Elsasser family on the south wall of the sanctuary of Cross Lutheran Church at 3101 South 20th Street.</p><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse is a heritage-listed farm house at 105 Ruffles Road, Willow Vale, City of Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1883 to 1884 by Alexander Fortune for William Doherty. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 1 December 1997.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse, a single-storeyed timber farm house with attic, was erected in 1883-1884 for Pimpama arrowroot grower and manufacturer, William Doherty. The builder was Alexander Fortune of Coomera. At the time, Laurel Hill Farmhouse was considered the finest residence in Pimpama district, and in 1897 was photographed by the Queensland Lands Department as an example of a successful Queensland selector&#39;s home.</p><br>
<p>Much of the Pimpama district had been taken up in the 1850s by William Duckett White of Beau Desert Station, who leased 20,000 acres between the Logan and Coomera Rivers, including upper Hotham Creek (a tributary of Pimpama River), as Pimpama run. A small settlement was established on Pimpama River, but the site was abandoned within a few years in preference to Hotham Creek. Much of Pimpama run was thrown open for selection from April 1869, and White forfeited his remaining leasehold on Pimpama from 1 January 1870. The private subdivision and sale in February 1870 of town and farm lots at the junction of the Pimpama River and Hotham Creek, consolidated Pimpama township and initiated a small farming community of predominantly Irish settlers.</p><br>
<p>In the 1860s, farmers along the Pimpama River experimented firstly with cotton growing, then with sugar, both of which initially were dependent on South Pacific Islands labour. By December 1876 the principal Pimpama sugar plantations (Ormeau, Malungmavel, Pimpama and Yahwulpah) had ceased production, and were devoted either to cattle or arrowroot, but some smaller farms in the district continued with sugar growing for several decades.</p><br>
<p>The Pimpama selectors of the 1870s, searching for a new commercial crop, discovered that the climate, soil, and abundance of pure water in the Pimpama district were ideal for the cultivation and manufacture of arrowroot. Arrowroot gave about the same return as maize or potatoes, but was more frost, drought and flood resistant. The first commercial arrowroot in Pimpama was grown in the late 1860s, and the Lahey family, who moved to Pimpama in 1870 and eventually took up Sunnyside, adjoining William Doherty on Hotham Creek, went into arrowroot cultivation on a large scale, inventing a mechanical processing method which revolutionised the production of arrowroot, and marketing arrowroot under their own brand. By 1884, arrowroot was widely grown in the Pimpama and Coomera districts, and a number of new manufacturing plants were being established.</p><br>
<p>Most of the selections along upper Hotham Creek were surveyed in 1871, but not proclaimed for selection until August 1874. In the interim, many farmers were "squatting" on these selections, with no guarantee that they would ultimately secure the land as leasehold.</p><br>
<p>Irish-born settlers William Doherty and his wife Eliza Fannon had arrived in Queensland by September 1867. It appears that they were resident in Brisbane until November 1869 at least, but had moved to the Pimpama district by August 1870, when William Doherty signed a local petition calling for a provisional school to be established in the area. It is not known where in Pimpama the Doherty family lived at this period, but William Doherty worked on a number of local sugar plantations and farms before taking up his own selections in the mid-1870s.</p><br>
<p>In October 1874, Doherty selected portion 21, parish of Pimpama (158 acres of second class pastoral land on Hotham Creek, on which Laurel Hill Farmhouse was later built). The block already contained some improvements, including a slab barn and a small humpy and about 12 acres of scrub cleared and partly under cultivation, for which Doherty paid £20, and was issued with a conditional lease on the property for 10 years from 1 January 1875. At the same time he selected the adjoining portion 31 with 135 acres, on which existing improvements comprised a bark-roofed barn, a small slab house, some cleared scrub and a small stockyard. It appears that the Dohertys resided on portion 31 from October 1874 until mid-1879, when they moved to portion 21. In 1879, Doherty also acquired the lease to portion 151, an 84-acre block which abutted the eastern boundary of portion 21.</p><br>
<p>In January 1884 he obtained title to portions 21 & 31, and embarked on substantial improvements to the property, which he had named Laurel Hill. A fine new house, erected for the Dohertys by Coomera builder Alexander Fortune, was completed by late January 1884. (This is understood to be the existing Laurel Hill Farmhouse.) Fortune, resident in the Coomera district by 1872, was a carpenter by trade, and had erected Coomera State School and an Anglican church at Upper Coomera.</p><br>
<p>At Laurel Hill, William Doherty raised cattle and grew various crops. By 1884 he had between 40 and 50 acres under arrowroot, and erected his own factory in the first half of the year. Remnants of this mill survive. Before the turn of the century, he purchased Pimpama Plantation at Ormeau, (approximately 1,150 acres which he used for grazing purposes), and acquired Sunnyside, the Lahey familys substantial arrowroot plantation adjacent to Laurel Hill on Hotham Creek. Following William Dohertys death in 1904, the properties were divided between his three sons: Laurel Hill went to William Alexander (Alex), Sunnyside (renamed Willowvale by the Dohertys) to Thomas, and Pimpama to Robert.</p><br>
<p>By 1908, Queensland farmers on about a dozen farms in the Yatala, Pimpama, Ormeau and Nerang districts, were supplying almost the whole of the arrowroot used in Australia. Doherty Brothers of Hotham Creek and Robert Doherty of Ormeau, with together approximately 100 acres under arrowroot (or 50% of the total 200 acres under arrowroot in these districts), were among the largest arrowroot growers/producers in Australia. The Willowvale arrowroot mill was moved further downstream on Hotham Creek, closer to the Pacific Highway at Pimpama, and continued production until the mid-1930s. Alex Doherty at Laurel Hill turned to dairying in the early 1920s before retiring to the Gold Coast. Subsequently the property was purchased by the Miles family of Pimpama, with title to Laurel Hill transferred in 1950. Members of this family resided in the house until mid-October 1997.</p><br>
<p>The Doherty family were prominent members of the local community, involved in church and civic affairs. William Doherty was a trustee of Pimpama School of Arts and served as a councillor on Coomera Divisional Board from to. His son Thomas later became chairman of Coomera Shire.</p><br>
<p>Some changes to the farmhouse were made during the Doherty family&#39;s occupation. There is evidence of minor re-arrangement of internal partition walls, and the staircase to the attic has been removed and the stairwell enclosed, possibly in the 1920s. The ceiling linings in several of the rooms may date to the 1920s also. The original kitchen wing reputedly burnt down in the late 1920s, and was replaced with the present kitchen building.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse, a single-storeyed weatherboard residence with a corrugated iron gable roof and timber stumps, is located fronting Ruffles Road to the northwest.</p><br>
<p>The residence has verandahs to four sides, with a separate kitchen wing at the rear connected via a covered landing. Original attic windows, one to each gable end, have been infilled with weatherboard.</p><br>
<p>The verandah has a corrugated iron skillion roof, with a timber-lined ceiling (partially removed) and timber posts, capitals and brackets. Sections of the verandah have deteriorated and partially collapsed, and only a few sections of balustrading, consisting of dowel balusters and timber handrail, survive. The building has weatherboard cladding to the side and rear walls, and a single-skin externally cross-braced wall to the front verandah. The main entrance, consisting of a panelled timber door and fanlight, opens off the front verandah and is flanked by two French doors with fanlights on the northern side and a French door and fanlight on the southern side. Multi-pane sash windows open to the side and rear verandahs, and a timber door opens from the living area to the south-east verandah and covered landing, and a second door with fanlight opens to the north-east verandah.</p><br>
<p>The kitchen wing consists of an unpainted weatherboard structure with a corrugated iron gable roof and timber stumps, with a corrugated iron lean-to addition at the rear. This structure has sash windows to the main section, with corrugated iron and timber batten hoods, and hopper and louvred windows to the lean-to. A timber door opens to a covered landing to the northwest, and a second door opens to the southeast with timber steps to ground level.</p><br>
<p>Internally, the residence has a large living area facing the southeast and northeast verandahs, with two bedrooms to the southwest and two bedrooms to the northwest. Ceilings and walls are unpainted, and the original attic space has been closed and the access stair removed. The ceiling of the living space has been altered and now consists of plywood sheeting with timber battens, and some internal walls may have been altered and partially re-lined. Door heads are not of a uniform height, and the main bedroom has French doors opening from the central hallway, also suggesting some alteration to internal walls. The exterior walls have wide horizontal boarding, and the internal walls have vertical boarding. The bedroom ceilings vary, with some comprising raked cornices with joists supporting floorboards for the attic above, and others finished with timber boarding.</p><br>
<p>Internally, the kitchen wing has unpainted ceilings and walls. The main section contains a dining area and bathroom, and has vertically boarded walls and a boarded ceiling. The rear lean-to addition houses the kitchen with a stove recess at the northern end.</p><br>
<p>The building&#39;s immediate surrounds include overgrown gardens to the northwest fronting Ruffles Road, with the remains of a rock garden to the north of the house. There are also a number of large trees to the north and south, and the remains of a partially demolished shed to the northeast.</p><br>
<h2>Heritage listing</h2><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse was listed on the Queensland Heritage Register on 1 December 1997 having satisfied the following criteria.</p><br>
<p>The place is important in demonstrating the evolution or pattern of Queensland&#39;s history.</p><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse survives as an important illustration of the pattern of Queenslands history, demonstrating the success of arrowroot growing and manufacturing in the Pimpama district in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when this Queensland region supplied almost the whole of the arrowroot used in Australia. As early as 1897, the house was considered illustrative of what the Queensland land selection system could achieve, and was promoted officially as the ideal type of settlers residence.</p><br>
<p>The place demonstrates rare, uncommon or endangered aspects of Queensland&#39;s cultural heritage.</p><br>
<p>It is rare to find an early 1880s farm house as intact as this on the Gold Coast hinterland, which has experienced enormous pressure for development in the last quarter of the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The place has potential to yield information that will contribute to an understanding of Queensland&#39;s history.</p><br>
<p>The place has potential to provide important information about rural timber building techniques of the early 1880s, and about the types of materials used. The s kitchen wing appears to have been constructed to much the same footprint as the earlier building it replaced, survives very intact, and in materials and form complements the 1880s building.</p><br>
<p>The place is important in demonstrating the principal characteristics of a particular class of cultural places.</p><br>
<p>Laurel Hill Farmhouse survives reasonably intact, and is important in illustrating the principal characteristics of an early 1880s settler&#39;s farm house with unpainted interior and original joinery.</p><br>
<p>The place has a strong or special association with a particular community or cultural group for social, cultural or spiritual reasons.</p><br>
<p>The place is valued by the local community for its long association with the Doherty family and their work in the local community, and for its illustration of pioneering achievement. The Willowvale/Pimpama community has a number of families descended from the first European settlers in the area, who value Laurel Hill Farmhouse as an important link with the past.</p><br>
<p>The Little River Rural Historic District encompasses a large rural landscape in northeastern Fauquier County. Covering some 23,000 acre, the district extends from near The Plains in the south to near Middleburg in the north. On the east it is bounded by the Bull Run Mountains, and on the west by Cromwells Run. The areas landscape typifies the characteristics of the Piedmont region of Virginia, and is devoid of high-density residential, commercial, or industrial activity. Land use is largely devoted to agricultural, equestrian, and hunting pursuits. There are a few places where mills historically operated, and there are three small village centers in the district. A portion of the Middleburg battlefield lies in the northern part of the district, and the district encompasses several previously listed areas, including the Burrland Farm Historic District, the Gen. William Mitchell House , the Waverly house, Old Denton, and Green Pastures.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<p>Marston Bigot Park encompasses approximately 222 hectare and includes Marston House, Marston Pond and the remains of the medieval shrunken village of Lower Marston. It is in the village of Marston Bigot within the English county of Somerset, England. The house is a Grade II* listed building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>There are several deserted medieval settlements within the park.</p><br>
<p>The earliest description of Marston House is contained in a letter from Richard Boyle, 1st Earl of Cork, in 1641, when he purchased the Manor from Sir John Hippisley. In 1714, Marston was inherited by Charles Boyle, 4th Earl of Orrery, who rebuilt it. The house later passed to John Boyle, 5th Earl of Cork, and successive generations, who each left their mark on the house and grounds, including Edmund Boyle, 7th Earl of Cork who added Marston Pond, a boathouse, and three gate lodges. However late in the 19th century the house fell into disrepair and it was sold in 1905 to the Bonham-Christie family.</p><br>
<p>Marston House and its grounds were used by the US Army during World War II, and were finally rescued from dereliction in 1984 by John and Angela Yeoman of Foster Yeoman Ltd, and used as the company headquarters. Foster Yeoman put the house on the market in 2012 at a price of £6 million.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>It is built of squared and coursed Doulting stone with a slate roof and balustraded parapet, located on a 180 m long terrace with stone urns. The house is 130 m long but generally only 20 m deep, therefore presenting a massive facade when viewed from the park. In the three-storey central block of this front are four Ionic columns, which were built by Sir Jeffry Wyattville around 1817, with two-storey wings on either side, which were added in 1776 by Samuel Wyatt.</p><br>
<h3>Gardens</h3><br>
<p>The garden at Marston House is listed Grade II in the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England.</p><br>
<p>The gardens were laid out by Stephen Switzer between 1724 and 1745. They cover an approximately rectangular area of approximately 8.5 hectare. They include a rustic, rectangular-shaped, above-ground limestone grotto dating from 1743, north-east of the house near the Frome road, which was built by James Scott.</p><br>
<p>Much of the 18th century lay out is now hidden by a lake which was created in the 1820s and 1830s, as part of a restyling in the style of Capability Brown, with advice from William Sawrey Gilpin.</p><br>
<p>The lake is now used for private fishing. The farm includes a herd of 60 Hereford cattle.</p><br>
<p>The Old Main, also known as the Livingston C. Lord Administration Building, is the oldest building at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. Construction on the building began in 1896 and was completed in 1899. Architect George H. Miller designed the building, which has a medieval style resembling a castle. The building features a central tower, multiple turrets, and a crenellated roof line. It is one of five medieval buildings built at Illinois public universities under Illinois Governor John Peter Altgelds administrations; the buildings are collectively known as Altgeld&#39;s castles. The Old Main originally housed all of the offices and classrooms for Eastern Illinois, its library, auditorium, and gymnasium; it was the only building on campus until 1909, when Pemberton Hall opened. The building is now used mainly as an administrative building, though it still contains some classrooms.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 16, 1981.</p><br>
<p>The Alton Bay Railroad Station is a historic former railroad station on New Hampshire Route 11 in Alton Bay, New Hampshire. Built in 1907 by the Boston and Maine Railroad, it is a surviving reminder of the importance of the railroad to the development of Alton Bay as a summer resort community. The building, now in use as a community center, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Alton Bay Railroad Station is located near the southern end of Alton Bay, a finger extending southward from the main body of Lake Winnipesaukee that is its southernmost extent. It is located on a narrow strip of land with the bay to the east and New Hampshire Route 11 to the west. It is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof and shingled exterior. The western facade historically faced the tracks of the Boston and Maine Railroad. The roof on this side hangs over a recessed porch, which is supported by square columns and large wooden brackets. The lower portion of the walls on this side are finished in wainscoting, and there is a projecting bay at the center where the stationmasters office was located. The north and east sides of the building are sheltered by a shed-roof porch that was added by the railroad during the stations period of active service. The interior, although it has been extensively altered, retains some original features, including beadboard ceilings and walls, and most of the features of the original restroom spaces.</p><br>
<p>Railroad service was introduced to Alton Bay by the Cocheco Railroad in 1851, introducing steamship service on the lake at the same time. This use of Alton Bay as a transfer point led to the communitys development, both for through passengers and as a destination in its own right. The Cochecos line was eventually taken over by the Boston and Maine, by lease in 1863 and by purchase in 1892. This station was the third built on the site, the first two having succumbed to fire. The station continued to be a major transit point, even after it ceased to be the railroad endpoint, with service extended to Lakeport in 1890. Train service to Alton Bay was ended in 1935, and the town purchased the building two years later. It was converted into a community center in 1957.</p><br>
<p>The Kureika  is a major right tributary of the Yenisei River. It falls from the Putorana Plateau to the vast taiga plain of Northern Siberia and flows northward passing through a series of elongated lakes, including the Yadun, Anama, and Dyupkun lakes. It is 888 km long. The river drains an area of about 44,700 km&sup2;. At the confluence, it is more than 1,000 m wide.</p><br>
<p>The Kureika basin is very sparsely populated. The village of Kureika used to have a museum dedicated to Joseph Stalin, who was exiled there in 1914–17. The Kureyskaya Hydroelectric Station was built in 1975–2002. It is served by the people from Svetlogorsk, a townlet sitting just above the Kureika Reservoir. Plans for another power station somewhere downstream are under consideration.</p><br>
<p>The Talnikovy Waterfall  is supposed to be the highest waterfall in Russia and all of continental Asia. It is located in the Putorana Nature Reserve, on the Putorana Plateau, not far from Lake Dyupkun.</p><br>
<p>A small brook falls from the flat summit of the Mount Trapetsia ("Trapeze") into the Talnikova River, a left tributary of the Kureika River. Its height was estimated in 1990 to be 482 meters, although some claim that the height of the entire cascade varies from 600 to 700 meters.</p><br>
<p>This seasonal waterfall is notoriously difficult to access and measure, since the brook is frozen each year for 10 or 11 months. Its annual reappearance is not regular, every other year the stream is not observed at all, prompting the Russian geographers to dispute whether it still exists.</p><br>
<p>The Tucker Mountain Schoolhouse is a historic one-room schoolhouse on Tucker Mountain Road in Andover, New Hampshire. The small wood frame building was built in 1837, and served as a schoolhouse until 1893, when it was closed due to declining enrollments. The classroom is 16 ft wide and 18 ft long. A small ell was added to the building to provide a weather break, a place to store firewood, and a privy area. The interior of the school has retained its furnishings: the desks are bolted to the floor, which slopes slightly to afford students in the rear a better view of the front of room.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. It is now owned by the Andover Historical Society, and is occasionally open for tours in the summer.</p><br>
<p>The Donald D. Tuttle House is a historic house at 12 Gabby Lane in Concord, New Hampshire. This modest 1.5 story Colonial Revival Cape style house was built in 1933 by Louis and Frank Blake. A single-bay garage was built at the same time. The house is most significant as the home of Donald D. Tuttle from 1935-1945. Tuttle was hired by the state in 1925 as its publicity director, heading a department that over time became the State Planning and Development Commission. He was a leader in promoting tourism in the state, in particular downhill skiing. Due in part to his efforts, the state constructed the Cannon Mountain Tramway . The house was moved to Gabby Lane in 2009 to make way for the Langley Parkway.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995, at its old address, 257 Pleasant Street.</p><br>
<p>The Ruth and Robert Hatch Jr. House is a historic house at 309 Bound Brook Way in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. It is one of a modest number of surviving houses in Wellfleet that combine elements of Modern architecture with traditional Cape Cod architecture.

<p>The Pioneer and Military Memorial Park is the official name given to seven historic cemeteries in Phoenix, Arizona. The cemeteries were founded in 1884 in what was known as "Block 32". On February 1, 2007, "Block 32" was renamed Pioneer and Military Memorial Park. The Pioneer and Military Memorial Park is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The historic Smurthwaite House, which is also listed in the National Register of Historic Places, is located on the grounds of the Pioneer and Military Memorial Park and is used as the cemetery&#39;s main office. Pioneer and Military Memorial Park is the final resting place of various notable pioneers of Phoenix, Arizona.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Prior to the establishment of the Pioneer and Military Memorial Park, there were other cemeteries already in existence as early as 1850. The citizens of the newly founded city became concerned with the "old" cemetery, which was once located between 5th and 7th Avenues and Jackson and Madison Streets, near a newly built train station. They feared that the sight of the "old" cemetery would be an unpleasant one to the railroad passengers who would visit the city in the newly established railroad system.</p><br>
<p>In 1884, the city counsel decided to purchase Block 32 in what archaeologists have now determined were the ruins of a pre-Columbian Hohokam community which they named "La Villa". The families who had their loved ones buried in the old cemetery, had them moved to the new one. The city also reburied the unclaimed bodies in a common grave in the new cemetery.</p><br>
<p>The "Block 32" cemetery is made up of seven historic cemeteries which were in use between 1884 and 1914. Each of the seven cemeteries has its own name: the "Ancient Order of United Workmen" (AOUW), "Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF)", "Knights of Pythias" (K of P), "Loosley" (also known as City Cemetery), "Masons", "Porter" and "Rosedale". In 1914, a law forbidding further burials within city limits went into effect and the seven cemeteries were declared closed. The cemeteries fell into a state of abandonment. After years of disrepair, the citizens of Phoenix rallied to restore the cemeteries. After the cemeteries were restored, they were officially designated, in May 1988, as the "Pioneer and Military Memorial Park". It is estimated that there are 3,700 burials; however, fewer than 600 of these graves have headstones.</p><br>
<p>The area which comprises the Pioneer and Military Memorial Park is bounded by 13th and 15th Avenues and Jackson and Harrison Streets. The main entrance is located at 1317 W. Jefferson Street.</p><br>
<p>In 1930, the Pioneers Cemetery Association was founded. The association began the preservation and restoration of the cemeteries in the Pioneers and Military Memorial Park. They were also in charge of researching the history behind the burials. However, their work was interrupted by the death of Thomas Hayden, the prime researcher, and by World War II. The present Pioneers Cemetery Association was formed in 1983 and has continued the work which was previously interrupted by the events previously mentioned. The association has a working relationship with the City of Phoenix.</p><br>
<h2>The Smurthwaite House</h2><br>
<p>The Smurthwaite House was designed and built in 1897 by Creighton & Millard, a local firm, for Dr. Darius M. Purman and his wife, Mary. The house, which was originally located at 602 N. 7th Street, was intended to be used as a boarding house. In 1903, the Purmans sold the house to National Bank of Arizona of Phoenix. That same year Captain Trustrim Connell, recipient of the Medal of Honor, and his wife Ann purchased the house. In 1938, it was deeded to their daughter Caroline who married Charles Smurthwaite. Later, the house was passed on to the Smurthwaites daughter, Carolann Smurthwaite, who lived there until her death in 1982. Carolann had willed the house to be jointly administered by the Phoenix Art Museum, The Museum of Northern Arizona and the Heard Museum.</p><br>
<p>In 1991, the Heritage Fund approved a grant of $50,000 to restore the Smurthwaite House and in 1994, the house was moved to its current location at 1317 W. Jefferson Street. It currently serves as the office of the historic "Pioneer and Military Cemetery".</p><br>
<p>The "Birds eye view of Phoenix, Maricopa Co., Arizona" map, created in 1885 by Czar James Dyer, is on display in the main room of the Smurthwaite House. In 1899, Dyer served as Phoenixs acting mayor.</p><br>

<p>The Conro Fiero House, also known as Woodlawn Acres and latterly as the Mon Desir restaurant, was a revival-style Tudor mansion built in 1910 by Conro Fiero. Originally listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 9, 1981, it was delisted on June 1, 2011, following its destruction by fire.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original structure was built in 1910 by Conro Fiero, an orchardist, for his wife, Grace Andrews, a Broadway actress. Also known as Woodlawn Acres, the house was the main residence on a 140 acre estate which was referred to by its original owners as Woodlawn Orchard. They lost the property during World War I when the fruit industry became unstable.</p><br>
<p>From the mid 1940s the building began to be used as a restaurant, opening a restaurant that served "Southern-style chicken dinners" in 1946 but it closed within six months. which means "my desire" in French. This restaurant remained in operation for ten years. The property was bought by Stanley and Tommie Smith in 1966 and they continued using it as a restaurant until 1979. They added a banquet room and an additional bar in the dining area. The popularity of the restaurant grew during this time as it was listed among the top 250 North American dining establishments.</p><br>
<p>"Mon Desir" then passed into the hands of Russ Walters from 1979 to the 1980s, and then to several other owners, eventually ceasing to function as a restaurant in 2002. It was purchased by the most recent owners, Edic Sliva and Lisa Tollner for $1.7 million in 2005. They bought the property along with other adjoining parcels of land, intending to turn the area into a development consisting of condominiums. Construction never got off the ground. Several other attempts to revive the structure were made. Karaokes were sometimes held there and attempts were made to film a horror movie in 2007 and 2008 but lack of funding stalled the effort. William Link also attempted to revive the old restaurant.</p><br>
<p>The house, located at 4615 Hamrick Road, Central Point, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 9, 1981. On Monday January 11, 2010, an early morning fire destroyed the structure, causing it to be delisted on June 1, 2011.</p><br>
<h2>Design</h2><br>
<p>Construction and design of the house is attributed to Whitehouse & Fouilhoux, owned by Morris H. Whitehouse and J. André Fouilhoux.</p><br>
<p>The main structure had a rectangular plan and faced Hamrick Road towards the east. It stood off some 60-100 ft from the roadway by a lawn and a driveway. On either end of the front facade there was a projecting gabled roof with overhanging eaves, faced with barge boards. The upper half of the gables was decorated with timber in horizontal and s-curve shapes. The lower half of the facade was covered with weatherboards. Wings were added on either end towards the back in 1965 and 1968, giving it a U-shape. A lounge was added on one end and an enlarged kitchen towards the other.</p><br>
<p>Two-thirds of the front facade was taken up by a veranda with a sloping roof. The portion of the roof above the veranda was further enhanced with a gable-roofed dormer, decorated with bargeboards and a multi-paned window. The veranda consisted of paired columns. The entrance to the inside was from this veranda. There were three doorsthe main door with doors on either side. Each door was hung with strapwork hinges believed to have been custom-made by Honeyman Hardware of Portland. The interior of the structure was finished with plaster and paneling. A chimney, faced with bricks, was also present.</p><br>
<p>Other features included a chimney stack in close proximity to the main structure, towards the southern end. Built of brick, the chimney also had a corbelled necking and a tapered flue liner. There are two double-hung windows. There was also a well house with a hipped roof towards the rear.</p><br>
<p>St. Mary’s Collegiate Church Gowran , also known as the Church of the Blessed Virgin of the Assumption, is located in the centre of the town of Gowran, County Kilkenny, Ireland.The Church is located close to Gowran Castle The site is a National Monument in the care of the Gowran Development Association  and the Office of Public Works . The Church and its family connections have been of huge importance to Gowran and further afield over the centuries. The Church is called a Collegiate Church. The word Collegiate means that the priests or chaplains attached to it lived in community together. i.e. collegiately. The present church was not a monastery or an abbey. However experts believe the church was built on the site of an earlier monastery. The presence of an Ogham stone on the site, which is on display in the chancel, would suggest there was a place of worship here dating back 2000 years to Celtic times and beyond.</p><br>
<h2>The Collegiate Church</h2><br>
<p>In 1312 A.D. Edmund Butler, Earl of Carrick and Lord Deputy of Ireland made a binding agreement before the Kings Justice in Dublin with the Dean and Chapter of St Canice&#39;s Cathedral in Kilkenny to financially support four priests in St. Mary’s Church Gowran to celebrate masses forever, for himself, his wife Joan, his son, James Butler, 1st Earl of Ormonde, his daughters and his ancestors living and dead.</p><br>
<h2>The Gowran Ogham Stone</h2><br>
<p>The oldest inscribed monument in the church is the Christianised Ogham Stone from the 3rd/4th century found on the site during the rebuilding of the Chancel in 1826. The Gowran Ogham Stone has survived to the present day due to the fact that it was used as a building stone in another part of the Church and lay undisturbed for centuries.</p><br>
<p>The significance of Ogham stones would not have been fully understood in olden times. Many of these Ogham stones throughout Ireland were used as building stones, gate posts and even broken up to facilitate ease of transport for building or road filling. Two such examples are the Ogham stones at nearby Tullaherin which was used as a gate post and the Dunbell Ogham stones which were found during excavation of a group of six raths between 1852 and 1855. These Ogham stones were broken with sledge hammers by workmen to facilitate removal. It is fortunate that the Gowran Ogham Stone survived to the present day.</p><br>
<p>The Ogham stones were grave stones or memorials. The one in Gowran is a freestone or grit block: c.1.5m tall, c. 380mm across the face and 30mm thick (c60"x15"x13" approximately). Canon Carrigan gives Fr. Edmund Barry&#39;s reading as:</p><br>

<p>That is, Dalach, grandson, of Mac-Eirche, who was son of Lia.</p><br>
<p>The stone was Christianised (a Christian Cross was carved on the stone) about the 6th Century.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>St. Mary’s Church as we see it today has evolved over the centuries. The Church has undergone many alterations throughout its long history. Work continues on the Church to the present day.</p><br>
<h3>Pre Christian to Medieval Period</h3><br>
<p>1st/2nd Century, foundation of the Kingdom of Osraige.</p><br>
<p>3rd/4th Century Ogham stone. The presence of this Christianised Ogham stone would suggest that this site was a site of worship in pre Christian times before St. Patrick arrived in Ireland in 432.</p><br>
<p>455 A.D. St. Patrick visits Gowran and builds Churches in the area. Rev. John Francis Shearman In his book Loca Patriciana published in 1879, detailing the travels of St. Patrick in Leinster and Ossory, makes several references to St. Patrick travelling through Belach Gabhrán (Old name for Gowran) Fr. Shearman says the first Church was connected with the saint of Gowran, Saint Lochan whose feast day is 31 December. St. Lochan was son of Congall, son of Eirce whose family history is given in Ossorian Geonology. A relation of Eirce is commemorated on the Gowran Ogham Stone.</p><br>
<p>1163 There is further evidence of a Church on this site before the Norman invasion of Ireland in 1169. Dermot O Ryan, Chief of Idrone, made a grant of land for the foundation of the Cistersian Abbey of Killenny, De Valle Dei (translated from Latin, the Valley of God). Killenny is situated about a mile and a half from Goresbridge on the Mount Loftus – Graiguenamanagh road. Laurence O Toole, Archbishop of Dublin, Dermot Mac Murrough, King of Leinster, Donagh Bishop of Leighlin, Felix O Dulaney, Abbot of the Cistersians in Ossory and many nobles of south Leinster signed the document at Gowran.</p><br>
<p>1218 Ralph (Radoulfus) was portrieve (priest) of Gowran before 1218. He was very influential in the Diocese of Ossory. He died on 12 March 1253. A monument to commemorate Ralph is on display in the chancel. He is depicted on the monument wearing his priestly vestments.</p><br>
<p>1225 An early Church was built with a square tower in the centre. This is believed to be the only known Church in Ireland from that period with a tower in the centre.</p><br>
<h3>Medieval Period to the 18th Century</h3><br>
<p>1415 Irish enemies surrounded the Church and burned it.</p><br>
<p>1421 Edward Bruce attacked the town of Gowran and further damaged the Church.</p><br>
<p>The Pope granted Indulgences to those who, for the following ten years, gave alms for the repair and conservation of the Church of St. Mary the Virgin of Ballygowran (Old name for Gowran). The height of the old tower was increased by adding the upper stories of the belfry to the tower. The tower was strengthened by building another layer of stone to the base on the north wall which now slopes outwards at the base. The wall of the old tower and that of the new addition can be seen from the inside of the tower when looking up at the north wall. Buttresses were added to the Nave</p><br>
<p>15th Century major alterations were carried out.</p><br>
<p>1502 Margaret Fitzgerald, wife of Sir Piers Butler decorated the Church.</p><br>
<p>1541 During the reign of King Henry the eight in England the religious practice in the Church changed from the practice of the Catholic religion to the Reformed Church, more commonly known as the Protestant Church or in the case of St. Mary’s Church the Church of Ireland. The Church was used for worship by the Church of Ireland community until the 1970s.</p><br>
<p>1646 Kealy Mortuary Chapel built.</p><br>
<p>1700 The second half of the 1700s saw a period of decline in the built heritage of Ireland with many of the landlords becoming absentee landlords and the aristocracy moving to England. Gowran Castle (the second castle which was built in 1713, the first castle was built by James Butler third Earl of Ormonde in 1385. This James is buried in St. Mary’s Church) which is in close proximity to the Church also fell into dereliction. A 1791 picture of the Church from the book Grose’s Antiquities of Ireland taken from a copper engraving, shows the south wall of the Nave still standing but in a poor state of repair with heavy growth of ivy covering the walls.</p><br>
<h3>18th Century to the Present Day</h3><br>
<p>1800 From the start of 1800’s, this decline was reversed. The following century saw the start of major improvements to the built heritage of Gowran. Many new houses in the town like the Shamrock Cottages and Dovers Row were built. The coming of the railway to Gowran in the 1850s and the construction of railway buildings was a significant event in the area at the time. A new Gowran Castle was built 1816-1819. The Roman Catholic Church was built during the 19c and in 1881 dedicated by Dr. Moran Bishop of Ossory who had Gowran connections. A new school was built in 1900.</p><br>
<p>1826 A new Chancel was rebuilt in St Mary’s Church to the designs of the Kilkenny architect of the period William Robertson who also designed the nearby Gowran Castle and most of the standing Kilkenny Castle we see today.</p><br>
<p>1881 Mr George Ashlin, architect modelled his plan for the Catholic Church of the Assumption Gowran on the Nave of St. Mary’s Church.</p><br>
<p>1950’s/60’s The Church of Ireland community held service in the Church each Sunday at 3-00pm.</p><br>
<p>1960’s The upper floor of the tower and the wall surrounding the top of the tower were reinstated.</p><br>
<p>1970’s Church of Ireland worship finishes. Use of the Church for service finished in the 1970s bringing to an end over 700 years of worship in the Church. The Church was taken over by the OPW. A bust of James Agar and a holy water font, known as the Gowran Holy Water Font, which were in the Church before it closed were taken to St. Laserian’s Church in Old Leighlin Co. Carlow Ireland.</p><br>
<p>1980’s The Gowran Development Association was founded in 1988 in Gowran. One of its aims was to enhance and develop St. Mary’s Church and surrounds.</p><br>
<p>1995 Restoration of the chancel roof and stabilisation of the timber structure which began in 1994 was completed. Stained glass windows were storm glazed. Representation was made by the Gowran Development Association to government ministers with a view to providing funding to the OPW for further improvements. Following these meetings the government committed a further £300 000 for improvement works on the Church.</p><br>
<p>Following stabilisation work on the roof, the interior of the Chancel was renovated. The interior walls of the Chancel were replastered in the traditional style using lime mortar and goat hair. Cracks in the tower were monitored and the tower found to be stable. Some of the monuments were rearranged in the Chancel to make the building suitable for visitors. A number of monuments were brought in from the Nave and positioned in the Chancel to prevent weather erosion.</p><br>
<p>1992-1995 Restoration of the boundary wall surrounding the graveyard was completed by the Gowran Development Association with support from the Fas (now Intreo) community employment scheme (CE Scheme).</p><br>
<p>1996 The Upper Garden and Millennium Garden between the boundary wall to the front of the Church and the main street were built by the Gowran Development Association with support from the Fas (now Intreo) community employment scheme (CE Scheme), Barrow Nore Sure Leader, (now Kilkenny Leader Partnership KLP) and Kilkenny Co. Council under the Village Renewal Scheme.</p><br>
<p>2000 Flood lighting was installed around the building.</p><br>
<p>2010-2012 110m of the wall to the rear of the graveyard was restored by the OPW using traditional skills and lime mortar mix. Parts of this wall are medieval. The wall was part of a wall surrounding the walled town of Gowran.</p><br>
<p>2013 Restoration work began on the nearby Gowran Castle. This castle and previous castles on this site had close links to St. Mary’s Church. Many of the Butlers and Agars who lived in the different castles built on the site of the present Gowran Castle are buried in St. Mary’s Church. When the castle grounds were landscaped in the 18th and 19th centuries, a walk from the castle to the Church was made. This can be seen on the 1840 and 1900 Ordnance survey maps of the area. This was called the "Rose Walk" as it was lined with different species of roses. The entrance from the castle rose walk to the Church grounds can be seen in the rear wall of the graveyard.</p><br>
<h2>Oldest Inscribed Burial Monument</h2><br>
<p>The effigy of Ralph (Radoulfus) in his priestly vestments, the portrieve (priest) of Gowran in 1218 is believed to be the oldest burial monument in Ireland with a date on it. The inscription is carved in Latin around the edge of the monument in Lombardic Lettering. The monument is dated 19 March 1253.</p><br>
<h2>Butler of Ormonde Connections</h2><br>
<p>Gowran was important to the Butlers of Ormonde for over 500 years. Following the arrival of the Normans in Ireland in 1169, Gowran and lands surrounding it were granted to Theobald Fitzwalter Chief Butler in Ireland. He was the direct Ancestor of the Butler of Ormonde Families. He incorporated the town of Gowran sometime after 1177. He died in 1206. Gowran was the chief seat of the Butlers in Co. Kilkenny until James Butler the 3rd Earl of Ormonde and also called the Earl of Gowran bought Kilkenny castle in 1391. Gowran and St. Mary’s Church were important to the Butlers from the time of Theobald Fitzwalter and his son Theobald Butler (who was the first to use the name Butler). However it was their descendant Edmund Butler, Earl of Carrick who established the Collegiate Church in Gowran, first chose to be buried there. He and his brother Thomas went on a pilgrimage to the Shrine of St. James the Apostle, at Compostella in Spain in 1321. He died in London on his return on 13 September 1321. He was buried in St. Mary’s Church on 10 November 1321.</p><br>
<h2>Other Family Names on Monuments</h2><br>
<p>Agars – following the presence of the Butlers in Gowran for 500 years, the Cromwellian wars in Ireland and the Cromwellian campaign in Gowran in 1650, Charles Agar came to Gowran from Yorkshire. Charles, his son James and many of their descendants are buried in St. Mary’s church and commemorated on various monuments.</p><br>
<p>Other family names include Kealy’s, Rothe’s Moran’s. The beautiful memorial stained glass window, to the memory of Aubrey Cecil White from Gowran who was killed in the 1914-18 war in the battle of the Somme on 1 July 1916 aged 20yrs and the monument to James Agar who died on 30 December 1733.</p><br>

<h2>Construction</h2><br>
<p>The limestone arena was built in 1926 and designed in Spanish Colonial Revival style by Atlee Ayres, his son Robert M. Ayres, and their associates George Willis and Emmett Jackson. In 1929, the American Institute of Architects awarded the architects a gold medal for the arena&#39;s design. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.</p><br>
<h2>Features</h2><br>
<p>Initially built to honor Americas World War I military dead, the 125,000 ft&sup2; structure is part of the Veterans Memorial Plaza. The white marble War Mothers Memorial honoring the mothers whose sons who fought in World War I was erected at the corner of the arena in 1938 by the San Antonio Chapter No. 2 of American War Mothers. In front of the arena, Hill 881 South by sculptor Austin Deuel was dedicated to veterans of the Vietnam War in 1986. The 1994 Night Watch, aka Korean War Memorial, by sculptor Jonas Perkins is across from the auditoriums front entrance. Near the Korean War Memorial is the 1995 50th Anniversary of the Battle of the Bulge plaque on a granite monument.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The 6 acre on which the auditorium is built was purchased from different entities, including a garden area from the Ursuline Academy. The 12-sided shape of the arena features carved stone and an arcade entrance complimented by a domed tower on each side. Red stone tile and metal are used on the roof. The original interior featured two-level horseshoe-shaped seating. The design on the 36 by 5,600 lb asbestos auditorium stage curtain was the painting Founding of San Antonio by artist Hugo D. Pohl. The painting depicted the artist&#39;s vision of the 1718 founding of Presidio San Antonio de Bexar, and also included the Battle of the Alamo defenders James Bowie, Davy Crockett, William B. Travis and James Butler Bonham.</p><br>
<h2>Restoration</h2><br>
<p>At the time of the 1981 NRHP designation, the building stood vacant due a fire that had destroyed much of the interior in 1979 and rendered the asbestos curtain beyond repair. An April 1981 voter bond referendum approved $9.1 million for restoration. The renovated auditorium was rededicated in 1985.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Arthur G. Rocheford was the son of William M. Rocheford, co-owner of the brickmaking and general contracting firm of Rocheford & Gould. The companys brickyard operation was located at Thirteenth and Frederick Streets, and the familys large red brick home was at 2423 South 18th Street. The location Arthur Rocheford chose for his plumbing business was within walking distance of both locations. Although Rocheford & Gould dissolved in 1906, William Rocheford continued his construction business with his sons, building family rental properties and a select number of larger projects. Coming from such a construction-oriented family, it is no surprise that Arthur would choose to act as the general contractor during the construction of his own building.</p><br>
<p>The Arthur G. Rocheford Building is built of red brick in the Italianate style. It retains its first floor cast-iron columns with inset double entryway with transom windows overhead. The building was built with a small tin cornice with corbelled brickwork and a raised stringer course. Interior details include oak flooring and a pressed tin ceiling on the main level.</p><br>
<p>In addition to housing Arthur G. Rocheford&#39;s plumbing business, the building has also been home over the years to a jeweler, a mail order business, a shoemaker, a dry cleaner, a painting business and a carpet dealer. The building was the headquarters of Emerging Terrain, a nonprofit organization devoted to community development and creatively informing civic and urban planning, but the organization sold the building in April 2014. The building is currently the home to DeOld Andersen Architecture, an emerging architecture and urban design practice originally founded in New York City.</p><br>

The three story brick building was built in 1877–78, and is an excellent example of Second Empire design, although its architect is unknown. Its basic plan is somewhat typical for institutional Second Empire buildings: it is roughly square, with a three-bay facade, a central projecting pavilion, and a tower, in this case a wooden structure with a belfry. The exterior is little changed from its original construction, although the interior has been subjected to period modernizations.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. The school was closed in 1990, and the town voted to demolish it in 2000. A community effort rescued the building from that fate, and it is slated to be rehabilitated for use by community organizations.</p><br>
