<p>The Kellogg-Mackay Company Buildings are two warehouses located in Kansas City, Missouri which have been used by various companies for manufacturing, transfer, storage, and administrative purposes, most significantly by the Kellogg-Mackay Company from 1919-1930. Due to their connection to historical railroad-related commerce in Kansas City, the buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 27, 2022.</p><br>
<h2>Site</h2><br>
<p>The buildings are located in the Crossroads, approximately northeast of Union Station. The buildings are privately owned, but the nominated boundary extends into the public right-of-way to include a concrete loading dock located on the east side of the buildings.</p><br>
<p>Rail spur lines used to be present on the west elevation that would have allowed for the transfer of goods from rail cars to the building, however, these are no longer visible.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The southernmost building, 2026-2030 Walnut Street, was constructed in 1892. The original architect and builder are unknown. It is three-stories tall and made of brick. It has an open floor plate and its structure is typical for the period with load-bearing brick exterior walls and a heavy timber internal structural system. The foundation is stone.</p><br>
<p>The newer northern building, 2020-2024 Walnut Street, was constructed in 1926 and abuts the side of the older building. Walter A. Besecke is the only architect that appears on the building permit, but the building is also attributed to architect James C. Sunderland. The builder was Harvey Stiver. The building is five-stories tall and made of brick and concrete. During construction, openings were cut which allow access between the two buildings. 2020-2024 Walnut Street has an open floor plate like 2026-2030 Walnut Street, however, unlike 2026-2030 Walnut, 2020-2024 Walnut has an internal concrete structural system.</p><br>
<p>The loading dock was first added in 1943, but only expanded to its current size between 1951 and 1963. The roof of the 1943 portion can be distinguished because it sits lower than the circa 1963 portion.</p><br>
<h2>Uses</h2><br>
<p>The buildings have been commercial since their original construction. The buildings were associated with the railways until 1961, when they were acquired by a tenant that did not rely on the railway to transport goods. As of May 10, 2022, the buildings were vacant.</p><br>

<p>The Florence Crittenton Home is an institution for the support of unwed mothers at 19 St. Margaret St. in Charleston, South Carolina that is on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first Florence Crittenton Home in Charleston opened on October 3, 1899, at 20 Ashton St. Later it was at 63 Washington St.</p><br>
<p>In 1925, the Florence Crittenton Home closed because its location at 63 Washington St. was condemned for fire risk. The plans for a new location had already started; L.D. Long Construction Co. was awarded the construction contract for a new building in December 1923. John D. Newcomer was the architect. Claudia Tharin was the leader of the Charleston branch and bought land on St. Margaret St. where she began having a new facility built; she lacked the money for the entire project and paid for new phases of the construction as she raised new money.</p><br>
<h2>19 St. Margaret Street location</h2><br>
<p>The building housed medical areas and residential areas for the mothers and the staff of the facility. Common rooms, a chapel, a kitchen, a laundry, and a dining room were on the first floor with residential rooms on the second floor. The building cost $65,000 when it was completed in 1932.</p><br>
<p>A chapel was dedicated a month after the opening of the Home. In 1964, a new, stand-alone chapel was added in a new building next to the main building.</p><br>
<p>In 1997, the building was nominated for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. In August 1999, a proposal was made to include the Home (along with many other National Register properties outside of the historic district) in the jurisdiction of the Board of Architectural Review. The Charleston Planning Commission approved the rezoning in October 1999. In December 1999, City Council created the Landmark Overlay Zone to protect historic buildings outside the traditional jurisdiction of the Board of Architectural Review and included the Home in the new overlay zone.</p><br>

The building, listed as the Community Hospital, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 22, 2004, for its significance in health/medicine and ethnic heritage. A museum honoring Kenney is planned for the site.</p><br>
<h2>History and description</h2><br>
<p>The National Register of Historic Places report notes that "Kenney Memorial Hospital was the first hospital in New Jersey built exclusively to train African-American doctors and nurses, who were kept from practicing elsewhere due to racial discrimination." Kenney financed the hospital with his own money, built it next to his own house, and named it after his deceased parents. The hospital, built in Italian Renaissance Revival style, officially opened on September 1, 1927. The hospital had room for 30 patients. Hospital personnel included a house physician, eight graduate nurses, a matron, and two orderlies. "Services provided by the hospital included general medicine, surgery, gynecology, obstetrics, and physiotherapy, including radium and the x-ray." The hospital also provided a free outpatient clinic. A woman&#39;s auxiliary raised money for equipment and donations.</p><br>
<p>On Christmas Day, 1934, Dr. Kenney donated the hospital to the people of Newark. After seven years as a private hospital, the hospital became a community hospital called Community Hospital. "By Christmas 1938, Community Hospital had served 4,543 bed patients, 584 free clinic patients, and conducted 1,109 operations with only 19 deaths since its founding." In 1938, Dr. Kenney was accepted on the staff of Newark Beth Israel Hospital, and in 1939 he returned to the Tuskegee Institute. Community Hospital struggled financially through the 1940s and early 1950s. The State Department of Institutions and Agencies refused to renew its license, and the hospital&#39;s trustees closed the hospital on June 15, 1953. The hospital building was purchased by the New Salem Baptist Church.</p><br>

<p>The Clark Equipment Company Administrative Complex is a collection of former manufacturing buildings located at 301-324 East Dewey Street and 204-302 North Red Bud Trail in Buchanan, Michigan. It was the original home of Clark Equipment Company, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The George R. Rich Manufacturing Company was founded in Chicago in 1902 to manufacture boring bars. It moved to Buchanan in 1904 and buildings were constructed on this site. The company initially struggled with a steel quality issue, but hired metallurgist Eugene Bradley Clark to solve the issue. By 1907 the company was growing, and had been reorganized as the Celfor Tool Company. By about 1913 construction began on Building No. 2, the oldest building still remaining in 2024. In 1916, Celfor merged with a related company to become Clark Equipment Company, named for Eugene Clark. About the same time, the company turned to making truck equipment. The campus expanded during World War I, and again during World War II as demand rose for military supplies.</p><br>
<p>After the war, the company&#39;s production shifted to axle and transmission manufacturing for automobiles. By the 1960, Clark had a global reach, and the last building constructed in the complex was built in 1966. During the recession of the 1980s, the company moved manufacturing jobs to South Carolina, and by the early, Clark closed the administrative headquarters in Buchanan.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Clark Equipment Company Administrative Complex consisted of six buildings along with the associated parking lots and a manicured park that was an original part of the complex design. The oldest building (Building No. 2) was constructed by 1916 and served as the main corporate offices with additional manufacturing space. Building number 2 was constructed in a loosely interpreted Renaissance Revival style, and the remaining buildings take their cue from its design. Three smaller buildings, used for utilities and a guard house, were constructed nearby between about 1920 and 1940). A larger, more modern building (Building No. 42) was constructed in about 1944. The last building, used as an employment office, was built in 1966.</p><br>

Works by Awa Tsireh, Julian Martinez, Muhammad Ben Ali Ribati, Sheldon Orin Parsons, Gerald Cassidy, Gustave Baumann, Benjamin Brown, Howell Chambers Brown, and many others can be found here.</p><br>
<p>The extensive and worldwide pottery collection contains works by Maria Martinez, Margaret Tafoya, Arabia, and sculptor Frank Applegate.</p><br>
<p>Another focus lies on traditional arts and crafts from New Mexico. To support local traditions, the family helped found the Spanish Colonial Arts Society in 1925 and Leonora Frances Curtin Paloheimo founded the Native Market on West Palace Avenue in Santa Fe, with branches in Tucson and New York, in 1934.</p><br>
<p>Extensive collections from their travels around the world were partly used to inspire local New Mexican arts and crafts. The Native Market archive is kept as part of the archives at Acequia Madre House.</p><br>
<p>The collections also reflect the existing networks within Santa Fe and are the result of exchange between artists, collectors, and institutions. Several objects were bought from or exchanged with the Museum of New Mexico, Margretta Dietrich, Dorothy Dunn, Olive Rush, and several others.</p><br>
<p>More than 6,000 photographs are available online in the New Mexican Digital Collections of the University of New Mexico.</p><br>
<p>Acequia Madre House is also home of the Women&#39;s International Study Center, founded in 2013. Participants in the fellowship program are encouraged to explore the collections and use them for research. Collections and archives are open by appointment.</p><br>

<p>The 66 Motel in Tulsa, Oklahoma was built on the original, two-lane USA Route 66  around 1933 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The listing included two buildings: the main or office building and a separate strip of motel rooms. The buildings are described as having "a vernacular interpretation of the Moderne style of architecture, sharing similar characteristics such as horizontal emphasis, flat roofs, asymmetrical design, and glass block windows."</p><br>
<p>According to a film with 1993 footage by Anthony Reichardt, a hobbyist who took road trips in 1992-98 and documented deteriorating places along Route 66, the motel was originally El Reposo Court at 3660 Sapulpa Road.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It was built by Isaac Burnaman. It consisted of 17 concrete block and stucco cottages, each with attached garages, providing privacy as guests could enter through the garage. A postcard advertising El Reposo Court, with mention it was owned and operated by Mrs. Nora Wilson, indicates it was on 66–75 Highway, i.e. that Route 66 and US 75 were the same there.</p><br>
<p>By 1992 the street became Southwest Boulevard and had been widened to four lanes, which cut away space in front of the motel, leaving just 15 ft from roadway to the office</p><br>
<p>building, and Interstate 244 had been built and ran behind the property. At some point US 75 was re-routed in overpasses to merge into 244.</p><br>
<p>The motel was deemed significant for National Register listing "for its association with Route 66, the most popular touring highway in the West" and as representative of "one of the most important property types associated with Route 66: the motor court. It is also architecturally significant as an excellent representative example of the Moderne style of architecture. This style was popular for roadside buildings from 1920 to 1940."</p><br>
<p>The main building, which originally had gas pumps in front and contained the motel office and a diner, is stuccoed and has a stepped parapet. Glass blocks are used in rounded corners at its entranceway. This building also included motel rooms at its rear. The motel is interesting in that it included a one-car garage unit for each motel room, with entry to the units through the garage bays. This can be considered a feature, not a deficiency, as this could provide privacy. Only the end units had door openings to the front.</p><br>
<p>In 1992 the gas pumps and diner were gone and the main building was used as a single residence, but the "66 Motel maintains a high degree of architectural integrity."</p><br>
<p>According to the hobbyist, business had declined with the widening of the highway, although the motel had continued to operate through the 1980s with weekly and monthly rentals.</p><br>
<p>According to the hobbyist, it was demolished by a wrecking ball on June 26, 2001.</p><br>
<p>In 2023, the address there is instead a document storage building of Data Management, Inc.</p><br>
<p>The Casa Loma Hotel in Tulsa, Oklahoma, also known as the Max W. Campbell Building or the Campbell Hotel, was built in 1927. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.</p><br>
<p>It was built by Max Campbell in Spanish Mission style, and was configured to have retail spaces on the first floor and hotel rooms with in-room baths on the second.</p><br>
<p>It became "the first full-service hotel" on Route 66 in Tulsa, when Route 66 was realigned to run along 11th Street in 1932.</p><br>
<p>Its listing on the National Register was consistent with two studies, in 1994 and 2003, which evaluated historic resources on Route 66 in Oklahoma.</p><br>
<p>It is located at 2630 E. Eleventh St. in Tulsa.</p><br>
<p>The City Veterinary Hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.</p><br>
<p>It has a U-shaped one-story building constructed of light-colored brick in 1942. This is of Streamline Moderne style, with curved surfaces, designed by Hungarian-American Tulsa architect Joseph R. Koberling, Jr. The building still retains many of its original features and fixtures, only undergoing three major structural changes since its original construction.</p><br>
<p>It was designed and built for Dr. William F. Irwin, a local veterinarian, and as of 2023 was still in use as a veterinary hospital. It was deemed architecturally significant "as an excellent example of the Streamline Moderne style as applied to a small animal facility."</p><br>
<p>It is located at 3550 S. Peoria Ave. on a corner property. A standalone brick sign structure close to the corner, built later than the building, was recognized as compatible but deemed non-contributing in 2008, and it remains displaying "City Veterinary Hospital" in 2023.</p><br>
<p>The Oscar Carlson House is a historic house in rural Morris County, Kansas, southwest of the community of Burdick. Carpenter Swen Johnson built the house for Oscar and Anna Carlson in 1930; Anna contributed several pieces of the design. The one-and-a-half story house has a bungalow design with a gable roof, projecting cross gabled bays, and a full-width front porch, all typical elements of the style. The house included technology that was considered modern for the time, including a windmill-powered running water system and electric wiring; the latter could not be used until 1944, when electric lines reached the area. Annas plan for the basement included a laundry room with a washing machine, a stove for cooking and heating laundry water, and chutes for laundry, garbage, and dust. As of 2000, the Carlson familys descendants still owned and lived in the house.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 26, 2000.</p><br>
<p>The Schoenfeld Building, also known as the Standard Block, the Struve Building and the Meves Building, is a historic commercial building located at 1012 1st Avenue in downtown Seattle, Washington. Originally built in 1891 by land real estate and interurban developer Fred E. Sander, it has been used for retail, light manufacturing, and office space. It was expanded and remodeled to its current appearance in the late 1890s by one of its most notable tenants, Louis Schoenfeld, to house his rapidly expanding Standard Furniture Company which in less than a decade would outgrow this and a now-demolished neighboring building and result in the construction of the Broadacres Building at 2nd and Pine streets in 1907.</p><br>
<p>Owned from 1896 onward by the Struve family and later restaurateur A.J. Meves, for the entire second half of the 20th century the building was owned by the Polishuk family, pawnbrokers who operated Central Loan, the pawn shop seen in the 1974 John Wayne film McQ, for many years. The building was sold to the Wehl family after Nettie Polishuk&#39;s death in 2000 and they began gradually modernizing the building. Central Loan continued to operate into the late 2000s, and its closure was seen as the end of an era in a quickly gentrifying city.</p><br>
<p>Designated a Seattle City landmark in 2014 as the Schoenfeld Building but officially known as The Standard, the building underwent a complete renovation and seismic retrofit in 2015. A 6th floor penthouse, not visible from the street, was added among other upgrades for prospective office tenants and the building remains fully occupied to the current day.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Fred Sander and the Struves</h3><br>
<p>Prior to the Great Seattle Fire, the lot at 1012 to 1016 First Avenue was occupied only by a small house set back towards the alley. Originally the home of pioneer John Ross, it dated to the 1860s. By the late 1880s the business district was beginning to overtake Seattle&#39;s original residential area and the rest of the block along First avenue had been filled with low-rise wooden commercial buildings. Shortly before the fire, work would begin on the massive Holyoke Building directly to the north, the excavation pit of which would prevent the fire from spreading further north. More brick buildings would rise to replace the commercial buildings burnt to the south including the 3-story Griffith Block and 2-story Maddocks Building, among the first to be completed in the aftermath.</p><br>
<p>Soon after the fire the lot was purchased by realtor Fred Everett Sander, who initially put it up for sale, where it sat unsold for over a year before he decided to improve the property himself. Sander, a native of Mississippi and a well respected businessman in Seattle since the late 1870s, was responsible for building Seattle&#39;s first cable car line in 1887 and would later be instrumental in securing the right of way for the interurban lines to both Tacoma and Everett operated by the Puget Sound Electric Railway. In March 1891 Sander commissioned architects Boone & Wilcox to design an impressive 5-story stone-clad building that would cost $50,000 but these plans were soon scaled way back. A building permit was issued to Sander on June 3, 1891, for a simple 3-story brick building to cost only $15,000.</p><br>
<p>The Sander Building was completed in less than 2 months and was ready for occupancy by August 1. It was initially divided into two spaces spanning all 3 floors, with the John Schram stove and tinware company occupying numbers 1012-14 and the Washington Rubber Company located at number 1016. The latter would move out after only a year, soon to be replaced by the Scoones & Co. auction house and later the Barnes furniture store.</p><br>
<p>In July 1896 Sander, still trying to recover from heavy losses incurred by the Panic of 1893, lost his building to foreclosure when he failed to fulfill a $20,000 promissory note made to the German Savings and Loan Society of San Francisco in October 1891. They would acquire the building for $34,414.10 to cover the judgement against Fred and his wife Nellie. The loan societys local agent was prominent attorney and ex-mayor Henry G. Struve, who happened to be a partner in the law firm handling the sheriffs sale of Sanders other foreclosed properties. He would assume ownership of the building where it would remain in his family for over 30 years, with his son Frederick Karl Struve taking over ownership after Henrys death in 1905.</p><br>
<h3>Louis Schoenfeld</h3><br>
<p>Louis Schoenfeld arrived in Seattle by steamer in 1887 from San Diego, carrying with him the name and physical signage from his business in that city, the Standard Furniture Company, which he had begun in 1864 in Virginia City, Nevada. He placed the sign on his new shop in a small false-front building at Second and Yesler, before moving into a storefront in the recently expanded Occidental Hotel in 1888. He would lose all but a single set of furniture to the great fire but his supply chain remained intact, and from a temporary store located in a tent, he quickly gained a place among Seattle&#39;s leading merchants.</p><br>
<p>After spending most of the 1890s between temporary quarters on Western Avenue and the basement of the New York Block on Second Avenue, Schoenfeld leased the Sander Building from Struve in 1896 with plans to occupy the entire 20,000 square foot space. He had the red brick façade painted a bright white and the name officially changed to the Standard Block. The new store opened in February 1897 touting itself as the largest furniture store in Washington state.</p><br>
<p>The business expanded so rapidly that in 1899 the building underwent a reconstruction that added two additional floors and replaced the upper facade with one of cream-colored brick and larger windows to let more light into the show rooms. The father and son team of Thompson & Thompson, then recent arrivals from Salt Lake City, were the architects of this reconstruction. Three years later the adjacent Griffith Block, then owned by Frank Wadsworth, underwent a similar reconstruction by the same architects and the Standard Furniture Company would expand into that building&#39;s upper floors in early 1903. Six archways were punched through the walls between the two buildings, under the direction of architect Emil De Neuf.</p><br>
<p>The 1900s were Seattles and Schoenfelds most prosperous decade, which saw him opening branch stores with his sons in Bellingham and Tacoma and before long he was again looking to expand the Seattle store in a single new building designed specifically for his needs, which was completed uptown at Second and Pine Streets in 1908. They were fully moved out of their old building by the end of March.</p><br>
<h3>The Meves, the Polishuks and Central Loan</h3><br>
<p>With the departure of Standard Furniture imminent in October 1907, Frederick Karl Struve, trustee of the Struve Estate, proposed converting the building into a 120-room hotel; architect Julian F. Everett was commissioned to design two additional floors for the building, but these plans were never carried forward. Instead the building was partitioned into 3 ground floor retail spaces with lofts above, which became home to office space, storage rooms and manufacturing firms. Over the years the ground floor was occupied by various used furniture dealers, sporting goods stores (including an early location of Warshal&#39;s) and a motion picture theater, the Crown.</p><br>
<p>In 1926 the building was purchased from the Struve family as an investment by August J. Meves, proprietor of Meves Cafeteria, one of Seattles most popular eateries of the era. The neighboring Wadsworth Building would be purchased by Meves brother Henry the following year and both buildings would become known as the Meves Buildings. In 1931 the building was acquired by Puget Sound Savings & Loan and eventually the entire block including both Meves buildings would be purchased by the Central Seattle Building Corporation, a holding company for several major local developers who proposed replacing the entire block with a massive skyscraper designed by John Graham, Sr.</p><br>
<p>The top floor of the Meves building, then occupied by the Northwest Awning Company and storage space for the Schneider art gallery was gutted by a mysterious fire on January 20, 1933, that caused $40,000 in damage and injured several firemen. Because the building to the south was also known as the Meves Building, there was initial confusion as to which businesses were actually affected. While the building&#39;s roof caved in and most floors received smoke and water damage, it was not a complete loss and was quickly rebuilt.</p><br>
<p>With plans for a mega-block skyscraper put on hold by the Great Depression and finally abandoned, the Central Seattle Building Corporation sold the building in 1945 to pawnbrokers Irman and Nettie Polishuk. Irman had opened his first pawn shop, OK Loan, in Pioneer Square in 1923 and moved his business to 1016 First Avenue in the 1950s, merging with the Central sporting goods store, opened by his in-laws shortly after World War II selling army surplus goods. The store was later renamed Central Loan and Gun Exchange and became one of the most well known in Seattle, even being used as a filming location for the 1974 John Wayne film McQ. During this period there were at least 27 pawn shops on First Avenue alone as well as numerous taverns and X-rated stores downtown, patronized by transients, dock workers and the residents of the cheap hotels that once lined the avenue.</p><br>
<h3>The Standard in the 21st Century</h3><br>
<p>The Polishuks retired in the mid-1970s, selling Central Loan to Gerson Goldman. The shop was run by him and later his son Alan and continued to have strong business into the late 1990s. After the death of Nettie Polishuk in 2000, the building was sold to the Wehl family, who began plans to refurbish it for office space. The neighboring buildings, including Warshals and the other Meves Building to the south were demolished in 2004 for the Madison Tower Condominium, leaving Central Loan and an adjacent adult video store among the last seedy businesses left along First Avenue. During demolition a ghost sign for Standard Furniture hidden for over 100 years was revealed along the buildings roofline. With luxury condos and hotels taking over the neighborhood and seeing their core clientele dying off or being pushed out by gentrification, Central Loan closed its doors in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The building was sold in June 2014 for $4,312,500.00 to the MWIC 1012 Seattle LLC, who after nominating it for city landmark status that November, would over the next several years completely refurbish the building inside and out, including removal of the fire escape and repainting of the buildings façade, seismic retrofitting of all floors and the construction of a penthouse on the rooftop level. They would also revive The Standard as the buildings official name. MWIC 1012 would sell the building in July 2017 for $15,510,000.00 to Kar Standard LLC, who continue to maintain the building as office space. The ground floor is currently occupied by a hair salon.</p><br>
<p>The Brown&#39;s Canyon Bridge near Salida, Colorado, also known as Stone Bridge, is a concrete "slab and girder" road bridge across the Arkansas River built in 1908.</p><br>
<p>According to History Colorado, "The 1908 Brown’s Canyon Bridge is significant for its engineering as an intact early example of a reinforced concrete slab and girder bridge. With a design provided by the State Engineer’s Office, the completion of the bridge preceded the formal development of the highway commission in Colorado in 1909." Historians have talked about the work of Thomas Ehrhart, Chafee County commissioner and former state legislator who lobbied for the bridge on the state level. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>It is approached by County Road 191 (CR 191) and originally brought Colorado State Primary Road 17 across the Arkansas River, connecting the mining town of Leadville to Salida and Buena Vista. It is now a link to private property. The use of CR 191 as the major north-south route in the Arkansas Valley, connecting Salida to Buena Vista, was replaced by State Highway 291 before 1963.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>It has two 40 ft spans and is 86 ft long. Its roadway is 18 ft wide. It is supported by a concrete center pier and two concrete end abutments.</p><br>
<p>Its design is credited to T.W. Jaycox, Colorado State Engineer, and it was built by the Pueblo Bridge Company.</p><br>
<p>It was documented in the Highway Bridges in Colorado multiple property submission, and although concrete slab and girder bridges are common in Colorado, the Brown&#39;s Canyon bridge and the Capulin Bridge in Conejos County are notable as the two oldest intact slab and girder bridges in the state.</p><br>
<p>The National Register nomination states, "The Highway Bridges in Colorado Multiple Property Documentation Form notes the bridge as the most architecturally sophisticated of the early reinforced concrete slab and girder bridges in Colorado. It exhibits curved springers, an articulated balustrade, and two dedication plaques."</p><br>
<p>The Ellis-Shackelford House, also known during its history as the Dr. Ellis House and the Central Arizona Museum, is located at 1242 N. Central Ave. in Phoenix, Arizona.</p><br>
<p>The house is in the Central Avenue Corridors Billionaires Row. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of the remaining unaltered North Central Avenue mansions.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in a bungalow/craftsman style 1917 and designed by architect R.A. Gray, who is best known for having designed St. Mary&#39;s Church, and was built by contractor Tom Weatherford.</p><br>
<p>It was listed as part of a study of historic resources in the Roosevelt neighborhood which compared the popularity of the Spanish Colonial Revival style with that of the Craftsman Bungalow.</p><br>
<p>William Ellis moved to Phoenix from Ohio in 1907 and worked as Chief of the Medical Staff of what was then Arizona Deaconess Hospital. He had the house built about a mile from his offices for Reba, his second wife, and his daughter Helen. Elliss daughter and her husband, J. Gordon Shackelford, for whom the house is also named, called the house home until 1964 and Shackelford added a dentists office to the property in 1947. Subsequently, the property became a boys&#39; home before becoming home to the Arizona Historical Society and its offices and the Phoenix Trolley Museum in what was the dental office.</p><br>
<p>In 2016, Amy Ellis Shackelford, great-great granddaughter of William Ellis, became the fourth generation in her family to celebrate a wedding at the house when she married Aaron Aguirre on March 12.</p><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory  is a historic National Guard armory building at 56 West 66th Street, between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue, on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City, United States. The building was constructed between 1901 and 1904 and was designed by Arthur J. Horgan and Vincent J. Slattery in multiple revival architectural styles. It is composed of a symmetrical brick-and-granite headhouse to the north and a drill hall to the south. The armory is a New York City designated landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The three-story headhouse, measuring 175 by, contains a central tower with a penthouse and is flanked by pavilions on its western and eastern ends. The facade of the headhouse, which remains largely intact, is made of granite at the first story and brick with granite trim on the upper stories. The drill hall is a three-story, gable-roofed space measuring approximately 175 by; it also has a brick facade. The First Battery Armory was initially arranged in a similar manner to other armories, with offices, horse stables, storage rooms, training rooms, and areas where soldiers could socialize. The headhouse housed most of the mechanical rooms and administrative offices, while the drill room was used for training and horse stabling. The interior layout was changed significantly over the years, and almost none of the original interior decorations remain extant.</p><br>
<p>The New York City government built the armory for the First Battery of the New York National Guard, which had occupied rented space since its founding in 1867. The armory&#39;s site was selected in 1896, but construction did not start until May 1901 due to various disagreements. The building was completed in May 1903 and formally opened on February 3, 1904. The First Battery was reorganized multiple times during the late 1900s and early 1910s, and it moved out of the armory by 1917. The First Sanitary Train of the New York National Guard, which became the 102nd Medical Regiment, occupied the armory until 1976 and sometimes rented it out for events. The building was sold at auction to the American Broadcasting Company, which converted the armory to a television studio from 1977 to 1978. After the armory was converted into an office building in 2012, sports television network ESPN, a subsidiary of ABC parent The Walt Disney Company, moved into the armory.</p><br>
<h2>Site</h2><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory is at 56 West 66th Street, in the Lincoln Square neighborhood on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in New York City. The building occupies the southern sidewalk of 66th Street between Central Park West to the east and Columbus Avenue to the west. The armory occupies a rectangular land lot of, with a frontage of 174.37 ft and a depth of 100.42 ft. The armory building is adjacent to several apartment buildings, some of which were developed as tenements. Nearby buildings include Manhattan New York Temple to the west, 50 West 66th Street and Congregation Habonim to the east, and the Holy Trinity Lutheran Church and 55 Central Park West to the southeast.</p><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory is the only building to have been developed on the site. The area was historically a farm, which had been parceled up for development in 1852. Although the Commissioners&#39; Plan of 1811 had created a street grid for Manhattan in the early 19th century, some streets in the area were not laid out until near the end of the century. The construction of Central Park in the 1860s spurred construction in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, but similar development in the Upper West Side was slower to come. Major developments on the West Side were erected after the Ninth Avenue elevated line opened in 1879, providing direct access to Lower Manhattan. By the late 19th century, the block contained five-story brick rowhouses, and St. Nicholas Rink, the first indoor ice rink in New York City, had been built across 66th Street.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory was designed by Arthur J. Horgan and Vincent J. Slattery, who designed numerous buildings for the New York City government, including the Surrogate&#39;s Courthouse in Lower Manhattan. The building is three stories tall and is composed of two sections: a symmetrical headhouse to the north, measuring 175 by, and a drill hall to the south, a large space spanned by steel trusses. This layout was based on the design of the Seventh Regiment Armory (which in turn had derived its layout from 19th-century train stations) and other early armories designed by the New York Armory Board. The armory is designed in multiple revival architectural styles; according to civic group Landmark West, the armory contains elements of the "Beaux-Arts, Georgian Revival, Medieval Revival, and Romanesque Revival" styles.</p><br>
<p>The headhouse is composed of a central tower flanked by pavilions on its western and eastern ends. The drill hall and the facade of the headhouse remain largely intact, but the building&#39;s interior have been significantly modified over the years.</p><br>
<h3>Facade</h3><br>
<p>The facade contains many castellated architectural elements, including deep openings, turrets, cornices with machicolations, and parapets with crenellations. The facade is clad in granite at ground level, while the upper stories are clad in brick with granite trim. The upper stories contain many elements of late-19th and early-20th-century architectural revival styles, including red and gray brick in Flemish bond, as well as granite window surrounds with classical details. According to the LPC, the design includes many details inspired by "medieval castles and Parisian boulevards". Although the building was patterned after old fortifications, only some design elements, such as the granite base, central tower, and recessed areaways on 66th Street, served a defensive purpose. Other elements, including the windows, crenellations, and cornice, were included for aesthetic reasons.</p><br>
<p>The headhouse and its penthouse contain a narrow flat roof, while the drill hall is topped by a wider gable roof. The penthouses roof originally contained an iron-and-glass skylight, while the drill hall originally contained 12 skylights. Half of the drill halls skylights were removed in 1936, when the headhouse and penthouse roofs were resurfaced in asphalt and the drill hall roof was resurfaced with a mineral mixture. The penthouses skylight was removed in 1960 when the roof was replaced with three-ply wood. The roof was replaced again in 1977, when mechanical equipment was installed atop both sections of the building, and the drill halls roof was replaced with asphalt shingles in 1998., the headhouse&#39;s roof contains HVAC equipment, emergency generators, a boiler flue, and stair bulkheads, while an elevator shaft and cooling tower are placed atop the penthouse.</p><br>
<h4>66th Street elevation</h4><br>
<p>On 66th Street, the central tower contains a wide granite round arch at the first story, accessed by a small granite stoop with a metal handrail. The central tower contains two stone panels with inscriptions. Directly above the entrance is a panel with the initialism "A.D. 1901 / N.G. N.Y.", referencing the year when the building&#39;s construction started and the New York National Guard. Atop the tower is a panel with the insignia of the First Battery, which consists of a shield with the year 1901, the initials N.G. N.Y., and the Latin motto semper paratus. The shield is flanked by motifs of cannons and militiamen tending cannonballs, and it is topped by motifs representing helmets, crossed axes, and flags.</p><br>
<p>The primary portions of the facade on 66th Street, between the central tower and outer pavilions, are placed behind an areaway with an iron fence and granite posts. The areaways and fence originally stretched across the entire distance between the central tower and outer pavilions. Part of the areaway to the west (right) of the main entrance was slabbed over in 1977, when the New York City government added a streetlamp. The areaway to the east (left) is covered by a wheelchair-accessible ramp, which leads to a doorway immediately east of the main entrance. The upper stories largely contained one-over-one sash windows with wood frames, inset within granite surrounds; these were replaced with aluminum replicas in 2004.</p><br>
<p>Segmental arches in each of the outer pavilions provide additional entrances to the building. The west pavilion contains a granite base and recessed metal door, which was installed in 2011 and is a replica of the original door there. The door in the western pavilion, as well as three windows directly above it, were replaced with a fire exit in 1977. The central tower and the outer pavilions contain 24 loophole windows, some of which have been replaced over the years.</p><br>
<h4>Other elevations</h4><br>
<p>The eastern and western elevations of the facade originally were clad in common brick and contained window openings. These elevations were later covered with stucco, which was scored to give the appearance of red brick. Both elevations are topped by red stucco parapets, behind which are mechanical equipment and bulkheads. Part of the western elevation can be seen from behind an apartment building, which is directly adjacent to the armory.</p><br>
<p>The eastern elevation contains several louvers, behind which are mechanical equipment. There is a slight setback about halfway up the center of the facade, which creates a small light court. There is a ladder on the south side of the setback and a stair and service door on the north side. Behind the setback, the eastern wall was originally divided vertically into three bays, each with three wooden sash windows, as well as an oculus with a hexagram near the top of the facade. The northern and southern sides of this light court contained one sash window each. All of these windows were infilled in 1977, when the louvers were installed.</p><br>
<p>The southern elevation is visible only at the third story and penthouse levels. The penthouse has a brick facade and an elevator shaft. The southern elevation of the headhouse is made of brick and is not visible from the street, but it has skylights, aluminum windows, and metal doorways which were all added in 2011. The headhouse also had 12 sash windows on the third story and two sash windows at the penthouse level; these windows were replaced in 1948 and infilled or replaced with louvers in 1977. The facade of the drill hall&#39;s southern elevation is made of red brick and contained nine bays of three windows each, which were infilled in 1977 with concrete masonry units (CMUs) and brick.</p><br>
<h3>Interior</h3><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory was initially arranged in a similar manner to other armories, with offices, horse stables, storage rooms, training rooms, and areas where soldiers could socialize. The headhouse had a basement, three stories, and a penthouse; it housed most of the mechanical rooms and administrative offices. The drill room consisted of a double-height space for training and a cellar for horse stabling. The ceilings of the first headhouse floor were originally 17 ft high, while those of the second and third headhouse floors were generally 13 ft high.</p><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory was renovated least four times: in 1936, before 1968, in 1977, and in 2011. After the American Broadcasting Company (ABC) took over in 1977, the headhouse&#39;s first and second floors contained offices and administrative areas, while the third floor and penthouse contained mechanical equipment. By the 21st century, the basement under the headhouse contained mechanical rooms, while the basement under the drill hall contained offices.</p><br>
<h4>Basement</h4><br>
<p>The basement contained a horse stable with 64 stalls, a gun lift, a shooting range, a storeroom for armor and ammunition, a harness room, bathrooms, and mechanical equipment. The headhouses basement contained bathrooms, horse feed rooms, and ammunition rooms to the east of a central stair hall, as well as harness room and mechanical equipment to the west of this hall. ABC renovated the basement further in 1977, converting the womens lockers and bathroom to chiller room; adding service and generator rooms west of the stair hall; and adding an electric service room within part of the stair hall.</p><br>
<p>The drill halls basement originally included a stable with six box stalls and 58 tie stalls; the space included cast iron columns that supported a concrete ceiling. The basements northeast corner contained a ramp to the drill hall&#39;s first-floor riding ring. A load-bearing wall separated the stables from a shooting range at the south end of the basement, which was 12 ft wide. The stables had been partitioned into offices by 1948, and storerooms were added in 1962. ABC gutted the basement in 1977 and added dressing rooms, dressing studios, and storage rooms. These spaces had vinyl-tile floors, acoustic-tile ceilings, and concrete-and-gypsum-board walls, although some of the original iron columns and plaster ceilings were retained. As of 2011, the basement includes offices, locker rooms, and a pantry. These are connected by corridors with raised concrete-tile floors, iron columns, and arched plaster ceilings; there are four "common areas" that open up to the first floor. The offices themselves are decorated with materials such as carpeted floor tiles, gypsum-board partitions, and acoustic-tile ceilings.</p><br>
<h4>First headhouse story</h4><br>
<p>The first headhouse story originally contained administrative offices, officers rooms and meeting spaces. Further changes to the layout were made in 1938, when a partition were removed, and in 1956, when an elevator was removed. The rooms east of the lobby were again divided before 1968, while those to the west of the lobby were repurposed. During the buildings 1977 renovation, the existing decorations were gutted, and ABC added carpet-tile floors, acoustic-tile ceilings, and concrete-and-gypsum-board walls.</p><br>
<p>The current layout of the first story dates to 2011. The reception area has gypsum-board walls, stone floors, and acoustic-tile ceilings. A west–east corridor on the north side of the first floor has raised concrete-tiled floors. The corridor is flanked by offices with carpeted floor tiles, movable glass-and-metal partitions, and acoustic-tile ceilings. There is a utility room at the east end of the west–east corridor, a bike storage room at the west end, and emergency-exit stairways at the northwestern and northeastern corners.</p><br>
<h4>Second headhouse story</h4><br>
<p>The second headhouse story contained utilitarian areas, namely a recreation room, kitchen, locker rooms, and non-commissioned officers rooms. There was a non-commissioned officers room, bathrooms, and locker rooms east of the stair hall, as well as a mixed-purpose recreation room, kitchen, and pantry to the west. Offices and a conference room were installed on the second headhouse story during the 1977 renovation. At the same time, a west–east corridor was built on the south end of the second floor, and a partition wall was added to the south, separating the second headhouse story from the drill hall.</p><br>
<p>The modern layout of the second story dates to 2011; it is decorated in largely the same style as the first-story corridor and offices. On the south side of the second floor, there are several openings and four stairs leading to the drill hall.</p><br>
<h4>Third headhouse story and penthouse</h4><br>
<p>The third headhouse story was devoted to a generals room, meeting room, and captains apartments. Formal rooms such as generals, clerks, and board rooms occupied the eastern half of this story, while utilitarian spaces such as janitors, captains, and storage rooms occupied the western half. The penthouse contained storage rooms. During a 1936 renovation, the boardroom became a smaller storage room; the clerks and generals rooms became locker rooms; and a space at the far east end became two storage rooms. Additionally, the janitors and captains rooms respectively became the first sergeants and quartermasters office, and the western storage room became a locker room with a toilet. Prior to 1968, the locker and storage rooms on the third floor became classrooms and offices, while the quartermaster&#39;s office became a supply room. During the 1977 renovation, the third headhouse story was demolished and rebuilt as a mechanical story with a concrete floor, steel-deck ceiling, and brick walls. In addition, a spiral staircase leading to the penthouse was replaced with a central stair, and the penthouse became mechanical space.</p><br>
<p>By 2011, the third story and penthouse had been renovated again with conference rooms, offices, and other spaces. The third headhouse story contains offices, a bathroom, storage rooms, and a west–east corridor on its the south end. These spaces are largely decorated in the same style as the first- and second-story corridors and offices. A stair leads between the third story and the penthouse, where there is a conference room with a raised concrete-tiled floor, gypsum-board ceiling, and brick walls.</p><br>
<h4>Drill hall</h4><br>
<p>The drill hall is a three-story space measuring approximately 175 by. The center of the floor originally contained a riding rink made of tanbark, which was surrounded by a scored-cement floor. The sally port was at one corner of the floor, while a runway to the basement was in another corner. The drill hall&#39;s walls were made of buff-colored brick with yellow pine kneeboards and red-brick substrate; the lower part of the wall was wainscoted in cream-colored brick. Decorative metal brackets on the walls supported a balcony with about 426 seats. There were wood-trimmed doors and windows within the walls; lighting sconces mounted onto the piers of the wall; large openings that led north to the headhouse. The ceiling contained large steel trusses that supported a beadboard ceiling; the trusses contained electric lights.</p><br>
<p>When the drill hall was converted to a television studio in 1977, ABC replaced the floor with a concrete slab, removed the gallery, created lighting-control and scenic-art rooms on the east side of the hall, and added two levels of storage space above these rooms. ABC also added a CMU partition on the north wall to conceal some of the openings on that wall, which had been sealed off, and it removed the kneeboards from the walls. ABC sealed some of the windows with CMUs, installed catwalks and acoustic panels on the ceiling, and moved the freight elevator from the northwest to the southwest corner.</p><br>
<p>The current layout of the drill hall dates from 2011, when two levels of offices and conference rooms were added above the original drill halls floor. The first story contains cubicles, conference rooms, a pantry, and a bathroom. Four openings are carved into the first-story floor slab, illuminating the basements "common areas&quot the two openings to the south contain exposed steel beams. The second and third floors contain more offices and are set back 30 feet from the south wall; these floors are connected with the headhouse&#39;s stairs to the north. The drill hall is finished in the same materials on all stories, with either carpet-tile or concrete tile floors, glass or gypsum-board walls, glass-and-metal partitions, and acoustic-tile or gypsum-board ceilings. The ceiling retains its original ceiling trusses and contains white perforated metal panels, which replaced the deteriorated beadboard planks.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Battery K of the First Regiment of Artillery was organized in April 1867 and, in its early years, was composed primarily of German-Americans. Battery K became a standalone unit in 1869 after the First Regiment of Artillery was disbanded, and it was reorganized as the First Battery in 1881. The First Batterys first known headquarters was at 334–346 West 44th Street, The 44th Street building was nicknamed Wendels Assembly Rooms after the First Batterys captain, Louis Wendel, who was closely connected to the Tammany Hall political ring. Under Wendels leadership, the battery served in active duty during the Orange Riots in 1871, the Great Railroad Strike of 1877, and a Brooklyn streetcar operators&#39; strike in 1895. Wendel first requested that the New York state government provide funding for a dedicated armory building in 1884, but no action was taken on that proposal.</p><br>
<h3>Development</h3><br>
<p>New Yorks Armory Board began studying several potential armory sites in the mid-1890s. A survey of the site was submitted to the Armory Board that June. The Armory Boards commissioners, composed of mayor Robert Anderson Van Wyck, two of his appointees, and two of the New York National Guard&#39;s appointees, next had to hire an architect. Both of the commissioners appointed by the National Guard had objected to the plans. One of the National Guard appointees, First Brigade commander McCoskry Butt, had wanted the board to be selected via a competitive bidding process, but Van Wyck replied that his commissioner of buildings should have complete discretion in choosing the architect. Butt also wanted the armory to include space for his unit, but this did not occur, as his successor relocated to the 71st Regiment Armory after Butt resigned during construction.</p><br>
<p>Meanwhile, the sites existing owners and tenants had claimed that the citys Commissioners of Appraisal had undervalued their property, but the New York Supreme Court approved the appraisals in late 1899. The next month, the Armory Board accepted the plans for the armory. At the time, the building was to occupy seven land lots and cost no more than $200,000. After the city approved the drawings the same month, Horgan and Slattery submitted plans for a three-story brick-and-granite armory to the New York City Department of Buildings in October 1900. In response to a comment criticizing the delays, Horgan and Slattery said they had created 17 pages of blueprints and 250 pages of specifications in six weeks. By then, Wendel had expressed dissatisfaction with the delays.</p><br>
<p>The Armory Board began soliciting bids for the new armorys construction in February 1901, at which point the building was to cost $120,000 and was to be completed within 250 workdays. The board received six bids for granite work and plumbing. Luke A. Burke was hired as the main contractor, having submitted a low bid of $170,000, while Michael J. OBrien was hired to furnish the plumbing. The cornerstone for the First Battery Armory was laid on September 21, 1901, when 125 members of the battery marched from their previous armory on 44th Street. Because of delays in the construction of the First Battery Armory, the unit renewed its lease for its previous building on 44th Street in 1902. Local news sources reported in April 1903 that there were difficulties in completing the armory, which was supposed to have been finished two years previously, and that the Armory Board had written "letter after letter" to the contractor. Although the general contractors had completed the armory in May 1903, it remained unused for nine months.</p><br>
<h3>Military usage</h3><br>
<h4>First Battery and successors</h4><br>
<p>The First Battery Armory opened on February 3, 1904, with a ceremony attended by mayor George B. McClellan Jr. The armory had cost about $320,000 to construct, including $116,339.58 for the site, $194,064.84 for the armory itself, and $9,249.65 for furniture. In the years after the armory was completed, the National Guard was placed under the control of the United States Army, which continued to operate the armory. He resigned in January 1907, and Major John F. ORyan took over as the First Batterys commander. In 1908, the First Battery merged with the Second Battery in the Bronx and the Third Battery in Brooklyn to form the First Battalion of Field Artillery. The battery thus became the First Battery of the First Battalion of Field Artillery. The battalion initially trained at the Second Battery Armory in Brooklyn but had moved to the Bronx by 1910.</p><br>
<p>New Yorks governor decided in September 1911 that the First Battery would become a battalion, tripling its strength from 131 to 393 men. The First Battery was mustered out, and men and equipment were reassigned to the newly created Batteries D, E, and F of the Second Battalion of Field Artillery. Each battery originally had 40 to 45 men, who trained at the 66th Street armory. New Yorks field artillery was divided into two regiments in January 1913; the First Regiment of the First Field Artillery, was headquartered at 56 West 66th Street. Battery B, part of the First Battalion of the First Regiment, was established at the 66th Street Armory in May 1913. The same year, the Armory Board decided to relocate the First Battalion to the 22nd Regiment Armory on Broadway between 67th and 68th Streets, in part because the battalion could no longer fit into the armory. The First Battalion was dissolved in 1917, and the First Battery became the 104th Field Artillery.</p><br>
<h4>102nd Medical Regiment</h4><br>
<p>The First Sanitary Train of the New York National Guard (later the First Field Ambulance Corps) moved into the First Battery Armory after the First Battalion had relocated. That December, during World War I, the First Field Hospital Armory was converted into a field hospital. The armory also hosted events such as a bazaar in 1917, The New York National Guard was once again rearranged in April 1921, upon which the sanitary units of the New York National Guard were to be headquartered at the First Field Hospital Armory. At this time, the 104th Field Artillery became the 102nd Medical Regiment. Over the years, the building served less of a defensive purpose; the turrets and horse stables became storage space, and terrazzo tiles depicting the 102nd&#39;s insignia were installed on the floor of the main lobby.</p><br>
<p>The USA federal government gave a $6 million grant to the New York City government in late 1935 through the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The grant involved $67,500 for renovations to the 102nd Medical Armory. The armory was extensively renovated in 1936 as part of a WPA project. With the onset of World War II, in 1940, the New York state government stopped renting out the armory for civilian events, and the 102nd Medical Regiment was mustered into service. During the war, the city government transferred the armory to the state government, which continued to operate the armory for three decades. By the 1950s, the building was known as the State Armory. The headhouse underwent gradual renovations between 1936 and 1968, when various rooms were rearranged. Workers added dropped ceilings within the headhouse in 1968.</p><br>
<p>In June 1975, the state&#39;s budget director recommended closing the First Battery Armory and another armory in Brooklyn, and reducing the number of staff at twelve other armories across the state, to save $376,900 per year. The following January, the 102nd moved out of the armory, and the drill room was converted to a tennis court. The New York City Board of Estimate voted to buy the First Battery Armory from the state government in March 1976 for $1. The city then placed the armory for auction.</p><br>
<h3>ABC ownership</h3><br>
<p>ABC acquired the First Battery Armory for at an auction in June 1976, with plans to convert the armory to offices. The armory was one of several buildings in the Lincoln Square neighborhood that ABC had acquired. ABC estimated that the armorys renovation would cost $3 million and create 44 long-term jobs; ABC began restoring the building in February 1977 to designs by Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF), This was the first of numerous projects that KPF designed for ABC and its future parent company, the Walt Disney Company. The work included steam-cleaning the facade, soundproofing the interior, and adding a new ceiling under the drill halls roof. The project also involved removing almost all the old finishes, relocating partitions, painting the side elevations of the facade, and modifying the front entrance.</p><br>
<p>The renovation was completed in January 1978 The New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the building as a New York City landmark on August 1, 1989, after ABC supported the designation. By the 1990s, fans of One Life to Live frequently congregated around the armory during tapings, hoping to meet the show&#39;s cast members.</p><br>
<p>The television studio was demolished in 2012 and converted to office space. as part of the Army National Guard Armories in New York State multiple-property submission. Disney sold most of its Upper West Side campus in 2018 to Silverstein Properties but retained ownership of the First Battery Armory. By then, the armory housed the offices of sports channel ESPN, a Disney subsidiary.</p><br>
<p>The Four Mile Creek Lattice is a historic bridge in rural Morris County, Kansas, located southeast of the community of Wilsey. The bridge, which was built circa 1890, carries a county road across Four Mile Creek. The single-span steel bridge is 35 ft long. It has a lattice truss design, which is typified by smaller diagonal beams that form a lattice pattern; the design is also an example of a pony truss, where the trusses are above the roadbed but not connected at the top. Ornamental iron sunflowers adorn the sides of the bridge. While the bridge&#39;s builder is not documented, the design is similar to those of the Canton Bridge Company of Canton, Ohio, which also built many other bridges in Kansas during the period.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 4, 1990.</p><br>
<p>The Jenkins Building is a historic commercial building at 101 W. Mackenzie Street in White City, Kansas. William Schilling and Son had the building built circa 1885–86 for their general store. The two-story limestone building had an Italianate design with a plate glass storefront, segmental arched windows on the second floor, and a bracketed cornice. In 1890, the Jenkins brothers bought the store; the brothers, who moved to White City from West Virginia in the early 1880s, had opened a general store in 1884 that was Schilling&#39;s only competition. The store grew along with White City over the following decades, as rail service to White City brought new settlers and grain traffic to White City; the Jenkins Brothers both imported products along the railroad and sold goods to settlers and passing farmers and businessmen. The business took advantage of contemporary advertising practices by placing regular advertisements in the local newspaper, publishing a Christmas catalog in the 1920s, and joining the Independent Grocers Alliance. The store lasted until 1939, when the Jenkins Brothers sold their business, and a local cattle rancher bought the building in 1944.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 19, 2004.</p><br>
<p>The Furney Farm is a historic farm at 649 E. USA Highway 56 east of Council Grove, Kansas. The property became a farm in 1862, when Carlos G. and Kate Akin were granted its patent; prior to that, it was the site of Fremont Spring, a stopping place on the Santa Fe Trail. After it passed through several owners, Grant Furney bought the farm in 1921 and settled there with his family. Furney built the farm&#39;s Tudor Revival farmhouse in 1925–26; while the style was popular in the early twentieth century, it was not commonly used on farms. Designed by Kansas State Agricultural College architect Walter G. Ward, the farmhouse features a projecting front entrance with a gabled portico, two gabled dormers with stucco exteriors and one curved half-timber each, and a steep shingled gable roof. The property also includes a historic barn with a gambrel roof and hay hood, five modern outbuildings, wagon ruts from the Santa Fe Trail, and the remains of Fremont Spring, which was mostly paved over during the construction of US 56.</p><br>
<p>The farm was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 12, 2006.</p><br>
<p>Hermits Cave on Belfry Hill is a public park on Belfry Hill in Council Grove, Kansas. Council Grove established the park in 1901 due to the efforts of local booster Kate Aplington, who led private development and cleanup efforts on what had been poorly maintained city land. Aplington promoted the park by spreading its alleged connections to the Santa Fe Trail through two of its landmarks, Hermits Cave and the bell tower from which Belfry Hill took its name.</p><br>
<p>According to newspaperman John Maloy, in 1863, an Italian Roman Catholic priest lived as a hermit for five months in a cave west of Council Grove. Maloys story was not published until 1890, and only one contemporary reference to the hermit has been found in local publications, shedding doubt on the historical accuracy of the story. Another local writer, Henry Inman, added to the story, and its popularity led locals to recognize the cave on Belfry Hill as the Hermits Cave site. The bell tower on the hill came to Council Grove in 1863; the city purchased it from a church in Lawrence for use as a church and school bell. Later accounts added the detail that the bell was used to warn residents of Native American raids on white settlers, though this has since been disproven. The bell tower was destroyed in a wind storm in 1884, and a local used the bell as a flower pot until Aplington rebuilt the tower in 1901; she dedicated the new tower to assassinated USA President William McKinley.</p><br>
<p>As auto tourism along historic routes like the Santa Fe Trail became popular in the early twentieth century, Council Grove began attracting tourists interested in its history as the onetime beginning of the trail. The alleged trail landmarks in the Belfry Hill park became part of local tourism efforts; for instance, when the local womens club hosted a regional meeting in 1907, it included a carriage tour of the park and other nearby trail sites. Upon the Santa Fe Trails centennial in 1921, local boosters again invested in developing the park, adding a stone stairway to make the cave more accessible. The city also added historical markers at eleven of its Santa Fe Trail landmarks, including Hermits Cave. Local tourist material, along with the Works Progress Administrations 1939 guide to Kansas, continued to bolster the park&#39;s reputation as a city landmark and tourist destination.</p><br>
<p>The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 14, 2015.</p><br>
<p>Dunlap Colored Cemetery is a historic cemetery at 2050 S. 100 Road in Dunlap, Kansas. The cemetery was established in 1880 as part of the Dunlap Colony, a community of Exodusters, or African-American former slaves who moved from the South to Kansas after emancipation. Benjamin "Pap" Singleton, an abolitionist who escaped slavery in the 1840s and an early leader of the Exoduster movement, founded the Dunlap Colony in 1878. When white settlers in Dunlap objected to sharing the preexisting local cemetery with the new black settlers, the Exodusters created their own cemetery. While the first burial at the cemetery took place in 1880, the cemetery trustees did not actually own the cemeterys land until 1893. The community held annual Emancipation Day celebrations on September 22 that included a procession to the cemetery to honor their ancestors; they also conducted Memorial Day and Veterans Day ceremonies for the veterans buried there. The Dunlap Colonys black population began to decline in the 1890s and onward as charitable support for the community ran out; the last Emancipation Day celebration took place in 1931, effectively marking the end of Dunlaps black community. Those buried in the cemetery include Columbus Johnson, one of Singletons business partners, and Ralph Maddox and A. J. Howard, both Exodusters and cofounders of the cemetery.</p><br>
<p>The cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 14, 2018.</p><br>
<p>Greenwood Cemetery is a historic cemetery on West Main Street in Council Grove, Kansas. The cemetery opened in 1862; before then, all burials in Council Grove took place at the Kaw Missions graveyard. A number of bodies were moved from the graveyard to the new cemetery once it opened. The local chapter of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows began managing the cemetery in 1870; the group platted the cemetery grounds and built a stone wall around it, the south side of which still stands. The Council Grove city government took over cemetery operations in 1911 and built the Shelter House, the cemeterys only building, in 1922. The city expanded the cemetery grounds in 1923 and 1945; in 1990, when all available plots had been sold, they opened a new cemetery. Most of Council Groves early settlers and civic leaders are buried at Greenwood Cemetery, including Seth M. Hays, the citys first white settler.</p><br>
<p>The cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 3, 2020.</p><br>
<p>The Spring Harbor Mound Group consists of two Native American mounds located north of Spring Harbor Middle School in Madison, Wisconsin. The site includes a bear-shaped effigy mound on the grounds of the school and a linear mound on private property. The mounds were constructed between roughly 800 and 1100 A.D. by Late Woodland people. White settlers first discovered the mounds in the late 19th century, and surveys done between 1905 and 1910 reported that the group had four to six mounds. By 1989, when the Wisconsin Historical Society surveyed the group, all but two of the mounds had been destroyed by development.</p><br>
<p>The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 7, 1991.</p><br>
<p>The Tarlton Theatre  is an Streamline Moderne theater built around 1925, located in Green Bay, Wisconsin. In 1999, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property in the Broadway-Walnut Historic District.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>West Theater & West Pitcher Show</h3><br>
<p>The theater was originally built as an auto dealership, and was renovated in 1941 by the Standard Theatres Management Corporation to become a single-screen cinema. American movie theater architect Perry Crosier designed the renovation, converting it into "Streamline Moderne" (a type of Art Deco) styling. The cinema was first known as the West Theater, then as the West Pitcher Show from 1987 until it closed on November 25, 2000.</p><br>
<h3>Historic West Theatre</h3><br>
<p>In 2000-2001, it was renovated, and reopened by owner Mark Mariucci on February 9, 2001 as the Historic West Theatre, which was described as "a first-run cinema showing independent and arthouse film during the week and a dance club on weekends."</p><br>
<h3>FiveSix Ultra Lounge</h3><br>
<p>From 2005-2007, Green Bay Packers player Nick Barnett converted the venue to a night club called FiveSix Ultra Lounge, which ran into legal problems with the City of Green Bay on numerous occasions, causing its doors to close for over six years.</p><br>
<h3>Funky Monkey</h3><br>
<p>In 2011, the theater was purchased by Mary Clare Vanden Boom and Joey Hawthorne, who reopened it as a "computer, pro lighting, and sound systems retail business" called Funky Monkey in November 2013. In 2015, they renovated it to a restaurant and performance venue but subsequently closed due to lack of funding.</p><br>
<h3>The Tarlton Theatre</h3><br>
<p>In 2018, it was purchased by Tarl Knight and former owner Mark Mariucci, who renamed it The Tarlton Theatre and reopened it as a cinema and performance venue with a restaurant and bar. Renovations took place over six months throughout 2018. Knight stated the theaters mission was to "bring a variety of affordable programming to the area and partner with local nonprofit organizations to support various local causes". Knight would later run for city council and also serve as director of the citys Shipyard District.</p><br>
<p>In 2022, The Tarlton Theatre announced a partnership with the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay and the Weidner Center for the Performing Arts to start the Weidner Downtown series, which would "bring a fresh and eclectic mix of arts and culture offerings to the heart of downtown Green Bay."</p><br>
<p>In 2023, the Green Bay Film Festival announced it would be relocating its festival to The Tarlton Theatre to show its films multiple times a year.</p><br>
<p>The Halvorson Mound Group is a group of Native American mounds in Yahara Heights County Park in Madison, Wisconsin. The group includes panther- and bear-shaped effigy mounds as well as an oval-shaped mound; a second panther mound and a linear mound were also once part of the site but were destroyed by farming. The remaining panther mound is a relatively large example at 228 ft long. The mounds were built by Late Woodland people roughly between 800 and 1100 A.D. Charles E. Brown and Rev. F. A. Gilmore conducted the first survey of the mounds in 1911.</p><br>
<p>The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 25, 1993.</p><br>
<p>Merrill Springs Mound Group II is a group of Native American mounds at 5030-5046 Lake Mendota Drive in Madison, Wisconsin. The group includes six to eight mounds and a nearby village site; it originally included up to 13-20 mounds, but many were destroyed by residential development in the area. It is one of four groups of mounds identified in an 1888 survey of the Merrill Springs resort area, which gives the group its name. The site includes two bear-shaped effigy mounds and an assortment of linear and conical mounds. The mounds were built by Late Woodland people between roughly 800 and 1100 A.D. The village site was also inhabited during the Late Woodland period, and projectile points and bones have been found there.</p><br>
<p>The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 7, 1991.</p><br>
<p>The Observatory Hill Mound Group is a group of Native American mounds on Observatory Hill on the campus of the University of Wisconsin–Madison. The group consists of two effigy mounds, one in the shape of a bird and the other in the shape of a double-tailed turtle or water spirit. A panther effigy and a linear mound were once part of the group as well, but these were destroyed in the twentieth century. The mounds were built between 650 and 1200 A.D. by the Late Woodland people, who were responsible for building effigy mounds throughout Wisconsin.</p><br>
<p>The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 31, 2004.</p><br>
<p>The Blackhawk Country Club Mound Group is a group of Native American mounds on the grounds of Blackhawk Country Club in Madison, Wisconsin. The group includes an effigy mound shaped like a flying goose, three bear-shaped effigy mounds, a panther-shaped effigy, and an assortment of linear and conical mounds. The mounds were built by Late Woodland people between 650 and 1200 A.D. these people were part of Wisconsin&#39;s Effigy Mound Culture, which was responsible for building the many mounds that can be found throughout the state. Country club member L. J. Markwardt convinced the club to preserve the mounds and restore a damaged section of the goose in the 1970s.</p><br>
<p>The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 1, 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Green Tree Tavern, also known as the Janis-Ziegler House, is a poteaux-sur-sol French colonial style house that was built circa 1790-1791 in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. It is the oldest verified house in Missouri by dendrochronology. The house is listed in the National Register of Historic Places as a part of the Ste. Genevieve Historic District. It is a component of the Ste. Genevieve National Historical Park, a unit of the National Park Service.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1789 Nicolas Janis, a former resident of Kaskaskia, Illinois, purchased a plot of land from Jean Baptiste LaBreche known as "LaBreche&#39;s Cow Pasture." Nicolas started construction of the house in 1790 after he and his family had moved to Ste. Genevieve the prior year. In 1796 he transferred the property to his son, Francois Janis. Around 1803 Francois opened up a tavern in his home. It was in this tavern that on November 14, 1807 the first Masonic Lodge in Missouri, Louisiana Lodge 109, met for the first time. This lodge was the first Masonic lodge west of the Mississippi River having been chartered on June 6, 1806. They ran the tavern and shop until the 1850s when the family closed them down and converted the building back into a house. The Ziegler family continued to live in the house until the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The 20th century was a time of recognition and disaster for what was one of the oldest houses in Ste. Genevieve. In 1938 a survey of the Janis-Ziegler House was undertaken by the Historic American Buildings Survey under the direction of Alexander Piaget and Charles van Ravenswaay. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a part of the National Historic Landmark Ste. Genevieve Historic District in 1966. In 1976 Norbert and Frankye Donze, a local couple involved in many historic preservation efforts in Ste. Genevieve, purchased the Janis-Ziegler House which they operated as a house museum until 1992. During the Great Flood of 1993 the house was inundated with water damaging it. The flood also covered the 1803 stone retaining wall, built by Francois Janis, which is today uncovered once again for visitors to behold. Subsequently, in 1996 it was purchased by Hilliard J. Goldman, who began an extensive restoration of the house.</p><br>
<p>The Janis-Ziegler House was acquired by the state of Missouri in 2017, but after only a few years of state ownership it was given to the National Park Service in 2020. It is currently a part of the Ste. Genevieve National Historical Park, which was authorized in 2018 and established in 2020.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The Janis-Ziegler House is an excellent example of French poteaux-sur-sol construction and contains one of the least altered interiors of a French Creole house in the area. This French poteaux-sur-sol method of construction uses a type of infill between the logs called bousillage, a mud and debris mix (straw, grass, and hair typically). The house is not purely French though as it is actually an Anglo-French transitional house with Federal style details. Notably, it has pegged Anglo-American rafters instead of a Norman truss system traditionally used in French houses around the area. In the basement, a very unique feature of the house is found. Dividing the basement into two sections is a piece-sur-piece wall which is found nowhere else in Ste. Genevieve. Another unique feature of this house is that the chimneys have triangular bases. There was a major renovation of the house in the 1860s which removed one of these two unique triangular chimneys in the house.</p><br>
<p>During the restoration of the house starting in 1996 under Hilliard J. Goldmans ownership, many important discoveries and restorations were made. One of the most important discoveries is of one of the largest collections of historical Ste. Genevieve graffiti to date, found on the north gallerys original columns. These columns were removed as the flood waters of 1993 had damaged them. On two of the columns are masonic symbols and on other columns are the initials of Francois Ziegler, Henri Janis, and an "N.J." An important part of the restoration that occurred was the reconstruction of the second triangular fireplace and a missing staircase both of which had been removed in a 1860s renovation of the house.</p><br>
<p>The Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company Detroit Warehouse is a warehouse located at 6045 John C. Lodge Service Drive in Detroit. It is the only known building in Michigan designed by architect Francis W. Fitzpatrick. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company had a presence in Detroit in the late 19th century, with offices located on Jefferson Avenue. In 1907, the company moved to Larned Street, staying there until this warehouse building was constructed. In 1920, the company chose a site on what was then Greenwood Street (now the John C. Lodge Freeway) to construct a new warehouse and office building. The site was convenient to the multiple railroads crossing Detroit, as well as the automobile factories in the nearby Piquette Avenue Industrial Historic District. The company commissioned Francis W. Fitzpatrick to design the building. He specifically designed the building to be fireproof.</p><br>
<p>In 1954, Albert Kahn Associates designed a fifth floor addition to the building. The Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company operated from this building until 1971.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company Detroit Warehouse is a five-story, multi-tone red brick clad Commercial Style warehouse building with stone trim and details. The façade facing the Lodge Service Drive is seven bays wide, with windows that are predominantly double-hung one-over-one units. The bays are separated by brick piers, decorated with limestone diamonds and shield shapes. There are wide limestone bands at the tops of the second, third, and fourth floor windows, and another narrow limestone band at the second-floor windowsill line. The façade facing Holden Street is similar.</p><br>
<p>The Tandy Community Center is a historic building dating from 1938, at 4206 West Kennerly Avenue in The Ville neighborhood of St. Louis, Missouri, USA. It is also known as the Tandy Recreation Center and PWA Project No. 8483. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1999.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Tandy Community Center building was constructed in 1937 to 1938 near Tandy Park, under the funding and guidance of the Public Works Administration (PWA). The neighborhood of The Ville is a center of many important African American institutions and history.</p><br>
<p>The building was designed by architect Albert A. Osburg and engineer William C. E. Becker. It is an Art Deco-style building has a T-shaped plan with a buff brick exterior, decorative limestone and terracotta details. The interior layout of the building has some Classical Revival design aspects. Most of the stem of the "T" shape is a gymnasium space for sports, with community services at the far south end.</p><br>
<p>The Sunset Hills Historic District is a residential historic district encompassing the Sunset Hills subdivision on the near west side of Madison, Wisconsin. The district includes 93 houses developed between 1955 and 1978, all designed by professional architects in the Modern style. Developer Willis E. Gifford, who also developed the Pilgrim Village subdivision in 1939, planned Sunset Hills; the idea for a single-family neighborhood of professionally designed houses came after Pilgrim Village residents rejected his original plan for apartments. Madison was growing rapidly at the time, and the new subdivision catered to affluent professionals who came to the city for work, including many professors and administrators at the University of Wisconsin. The district includes several designs by Herb Fritz Jr., a Madison architect who worked under Frank Lloyd Wright at Taliesin, and William V. Kaeser, who worked for Frank M. Riley and was heavily influenced by Wright. It also has three houses designed by Elizabeth Mackay Ranney, the only practicing female architect in Madison in the 1960s.</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 15, 2015.</p><br>
<p>The Klueter and Company Wholesale Grocery Warehouse is a historic building at 901 East Washington Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin. Hotel Indigo Madison Downtown now operates out of renovated structure.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Klueter family, who had operated a grocery business in Madison since 1870 and entered the wholesale market in 1907, built the warehouse in 1915–16. At the time, Madisons east side was designated as the citys factory district to separate industry from residential areas on the west side.</p><br>
<p>The Klueter family sold the warehouse to the Simon Bros. grocery business, who owned it until the 1960s; the Mautz Paint Company used the warehouse for the rest of the twentieth century. After sitting vacant for over a decade, the building was redeveloped into a Hotel Indigo in the late 2010s.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Architect Alvan Small designed the warehouse in the Prairie School style, as well-designed buildings both helped appease anti-industry residents and could be promoted as clean and modern facilities. The brick building features belt courses and banding in order to emphasize the horizontal, as was traditional in Prairie School architecture; it also has a tower at each corner with brick detailing at the top. The hotel renovation added a new wing and the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 19, 2018.</p><br>
<p>The Nicholas Haight Farmstead is a historic farm at 4926 Lacy Road in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. Edwin Spooner of Massachusetts established the farm in the 1850s after purchasing the land from speculator John Catlin. Spooner built the original section of the farm&#39;s farmhouse in 1854–55; the two-story farmhouse is a vernacular gabled ell structure with Greek Revival elements, such as frieze boards and cornice returns on the front-facing gable. Nicholas Haight purchased the farm from Spooner in 1867, and he and his family owned the property well into the twentieth century. Haight ran a diverse farm, as was typical in Dane County at the time, growing wheat and raising dairy cattle, horses, sheep, and pigs. Haight added wings to the farmhouse four times, twice before 1880, and twice between 1880 and 1900. The farm also includes a nineteenth-century barn with an early twentieth-century silo, a smokehouse, a granary, and a corn crib.</p><br>
<p>The farm was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 29, 1993.</p><br>
<p>The Dunroven House is a historic house at 7801 Dunroven Road northeast of the village of Dane, Wisconsin. The house was built in 1870 by Abram Asa Boyce, a farmer and politician who served in the Wisconsin State Legislature and chaired the Dane County Board of Supervisors. Boyces original house, which he named Walnut Hill, was a two-story sandstone building. E. W. de Bower purchased the house in 1909 and expanded it into a Colonial Revival home that was much larger than others in the area. The houses design features a full portico on the front facade supported by four two-story Corinthian columns and hipped dormers projecting from the roof. de Bower, who lived in Chicago and hired locals to raise cattle on the property, named the new house Mont-Joy in honor of his wife.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 28, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Hubecky House in Florissant, Missouri is a historic house located at 917 Lafayette.</p><br>
<p>It was built in 1922.</p><br>
<p>In the 1970s the area of St. Ferdinand was assessed for its historic resources, leading to the listing in 1979 of the Hubecky House and many other houses, buildings, and historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The Hubecky House was deemed "Significant as an example of the continuity of the Missouri French style of architecture,</p><br>
<p>which helps make this Multiple Resource Area a cohesive entity."</p><br>
<p>Also the MRA document describes: "This frame Missouri French example helps define the type and represents the renaissance of this style in this town</p><br>
<p>in the 1920s and 1930s."</p><br>
<p>The Missouri French style was "a trademark of Florissant&#39;s residential architecture since 1790", and 16 examples including the Hubecky House were assessed to be "of considerable local architectural importance in spite of their simple designs."</p><br>
<p>It was a home of William F. Hubecky (1930-2004), a postman.</p><br>
<p>Rev. Thomas James, Jr.  was a Puritan minister in East Hampton, Long Island, during the late 17th century. In 1648, the first inhabitants of East Hampton arrived, having mostly migrated from Maidstone, a town in Kent, England. Prior to reaching eastern Long Island, they made a stopover in Lynn, Massachusetts, and then moved on to Connecticut. Their journey to America was primarily driven by religious persecution and oppressive governmental regulations. These settlers sought not just religious freedom, but also civil liberties.</p><br>
<h2>Early years</h2><br>
<p>Rev. Thomas James Jr. was the son of a minister with the same name who had emigrated from Lincolnshire, England with his family. The senior James (1595 - 1683) had first settled in Boston in 1632 before moving to the Charlestown church for years and then later to New Haven, Connecticut. However, Rev. James Sr. was not well-liked by his congregation in New Haven and eventually returned to England, while his son remained in America. Approximately 7 to 10 percent of the settlers went back to England after 1640, which included roughly one-third of the clergymen.</p><br>
<p>He was born in 1620 in Newbury, Massachusetts, and received his education at Harvard College, where he graduated in 1643. After completing his studies, he served as a schoolteacher in Ipswich and Rowley before moving to East Hampton in 1650 to become the minister of the town&#39;s Congregational Church (Later 1st. Presbyterian).</p><br>
<p>The East Hampton Town Trustees felt comfortable with Governor Winthrop of Connecticut and had gone to see him about finding a minister. Rev. Thomas James Jr. was eventually hired for the position in August 1651, having also been invited to be a chaplain on Gardiner&#39;s Island by Lion Gardiner.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James Jr. was highly regarded by Judge Henry P. Hedges, who described him as "learned, resolutely just, sincere, fearless, active, and had a powerful personality." He was also considered a "feisty Puritan" and was well-versed in public affairs, in addition to his role as a guide in politics, laws, morals, and religion.</p><br>
<p>In those times, attending church on Sunday mornings was mandatory, and those who did not attend were fined one shilling. Additionally, a fine of 10 shillings was imposed on anyone caught working on the Sabbath, and those who refused to pray were sent to the stockade.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James Jr. was also expected to give two-hour sermons on Sunday mornings. Sunday was considered a day of rest, so there was little else for people to do. These strict rules and expectations reflect the Puritan emphasis on strict religious and moral codes, which were enforced by both social pressure and legal consequences.</p><br>
<h2>Home life</h2><br>
<p>It is probable that Rev. Thomas James got married for the first time in Connecticut to an unknown person. On September 2, 1669, he married Katherine Blux from Southampton for his second marriage. Although there is information that he had ten children, it is unclear which wife was the mother of all of them, and the birth dates of the children are also unknown. Some of his children married into nearby families. Peregrine Stansborough of Sagaponack married Rev. Thomas James&#39;s daughter, Sarah, on December 15, 1664, suggesting that Sarah was likely from his first marriage.</p><br>
<p>When Rev. James was hired, his salary was 45 English pounds per year ( £6,600.00), which was twice what Lion Gardiner had offered him to be the minister on Gardiner&#39;s Island. The following year, his salary went up to 50 pounds. His salary was paid from the taxes collected from the citizens, and he was exempt from paying taxes himself.</p><br>
<p>As part of his compensation, Rev. James was given a home and 12 acres of land, some of which was used for fuel and the rest for farming. He was also given the privilege of being the first person to grind grain at the mill on Monday, which was the second day of the week.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James&#39;s house was located next to the Gardiner house on what is now James Lane. The Meeting House, where Rev. James preached, was also located on the same property, which is now the South End Cemetery. The cemetery was originally the South End Burying Ground, and it was connected to the church or Meeting House. The whole area was fenced in for protection.Boulder Found, “Thomas James Dwelt Here 1652-1692” was found inscribed on a boulder unearthed on the site of Rev. James Home in 1955.East Hampton Star, September 29, 1955, front page.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James also interacted with the local Native American population, the Montauks. He learned the Indian language and taught them the English language. The Indians sometimes even worshiped with him. The friendly relationship between the colonists and the Native Americans is in part what led the Sachem Wyandanch to consider an alliance with the town.</p><br>
<h2>Town Trustee</h2><br>
<p>Rev. James served as the minister of the East Hampton church for almost 50 years, from 1650 until his death in 1698. During his tenure, he was highly respected by his parishioners and was known for his dedication to their rights and interests.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James was not only the Town minister but also a member of the Town Trustees, and he was elected repeatedly. He also served as the Clerk of the Trustees, likely due to his writing skills, and was responsible for keeping the Town Records. However, he did not keep good records of births, deaths, and marriages for the church or the town, and these dates are missing from the records. The reason for this is unclear, with some speculating that he was too busy with other duties or that there had been a fire that destroyed the records.</p><br>
<p>The Town Trustees had various responsibilities, including hiring someone to ring the church bell, renting church pews, and finding a leader for psalm singing. They also enacted laws against slander and personal violence, which were based on the laws in Connecticut.</p><br>
<h2>Arrest</h2><br>
<p>In 1686, Rev. James became involved in a dispute with the government of New York, which had jurisdiction over East Hampton. He and several other East Hampton citizens were arrested for protesting against being part of New York and for selling whale oil in Connecticut without paying taxes. Rev. James preached a fiery sermon in support of his parishioners, which led to a warrant being issued for his arrest. He spent three weeks in jail before being released on the grounds that he was a loyal subject of King James II.</p><br>
<p>Rev. James was not alone in his opposition to the state government. Many other towns and villages in what is now known as Long Island were also unhappy with the way they were being governed by the New York colony. In fact, in 1683, a number of towns including East Hampton, Southampton, and Southold banded together to form the Duke of York&#39;s Laws. These laws allowed for a greater degree of local self-governance, and were seen as a way for the colonists to protect their rights.</p><br>
<p>Despite these efforts, the state government continued to exert its influence over East Hampton and other towns. In 1691, the New York colony passed a new law that revoked the Duke of York&#39;s Laws and brought all of Long Island under the control of the state government. This move was deeply unpopular with many of the colonists, who saw it as a violation of their rights and freedoms.</p><br>
<h2>Writings</h2><br>
<p>Rev. James was a prolific writer and is known for his publication, "The Book of Common Prayer Reformed According to the Plan of the Late Dr. Samuel Clarke," which was printed in 1690. He also wrote extensively on theological subjects and was a respected scholar.</p><br>
<p>During the mid-1690s, Rev. James was unable to perform all of his duties, prompting the Trustees to appoint Rev. Nathaniel Huntting as his assistant. Despite this, Rev. James still carried out some of his responsibilities. Rev. Huntting owned the property where the Huntting Inn, also known as The Palm, is located today.</p><br>
<h2>Passing</h2><br>
<p>Rev. Thomas James died on June 16, 1698, and was buried in the South End Burying Ground in East Hampton. He was remembered by his parishioners as a dedicated minister who always had their interests at heart. His final wishes were that he be buried in a manner that would allow him to face his congregation on the day of resurrection. His gravestone bears the inscription, "MR. THOMAS JAMES DYED THE 16 DAY OF JUNE IN THE YEARE 1698 HE WAS MINISTAR OF THE GOSPELL AND PASTUR OF THE CHURCH OF CHRIST."</p><br>
<p>The Meyer House in Florissant, Missouri is a historic house located at 915 Lafayette.</p><br>
<p>Meyer House was built in 1922. It is described as "Bungalow with French Affinities". In 1978, its exterior was weatherboard and its roof was asphalt shingles.</p><br>
<p>In the 1970s the area of St. Ferdinand was assessed for its historic resources, leading to the listing in 1979 of the Hubecky House and many other houses, buildings, and historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>As was the adjacent Hubecky House, the Meyer House was deemed "Significant as an example of the continuity of the Missouri French style of architecture,</p><br>
<p>which helps make this Multiple Resource Area a cohesive entity."</p><br>
<p>Also the MRA document describes the Meyer House: "This frame Missouri French example illustrates the temporal continuity of this style and helps define its Florissant manifestations. It represents the renaissance of this style here in the 1920s and 1930s."</p><br>
<p>The Missouri French style was "a trademark of Florissant&#39;s residential architecture since 1790", and 16 examples including the Meyer House were assessed to be "of considerable local architectural importance in spite of their simple designs."</p><br>
