<p>The Tabor-Wing House is located on NY 22 in Dover Plains, New York, United States. It is a frame house built in 1810 by a prominent family in the area, relatively intact today.</p><br>
<p>It has an unusual amount of decoration for a Federal-style building. Because of that, and its importance in local history, the Tabor-Wing House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 by founding member and current Town Historian, Caroline Reichenberg. Between 1979 and 2003 it was also the home of the Dover Plains Library.</p><br>
<p>After the library moved out, the Dover Historical Society donated the building to the Town of Dover, which began a restoration that finished in 2006. Today it is used for some municipal government offices and as a local history museum.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The house sits on a half-acre 0.5 acre triangular lot at the junction of NY 22 and North Nellie Hill Road, which becomes Cemetery Road south of the house. It has a two-story, five-bay main block with a smaller wing, both supported by a full stone basement. The main block is sided in clapboard, while the wing uses flush boards. The gabled asphalt-shingled roofs have chimneys at all three ends</p><br>
<p>The western (front) facade is heavily ornamented. A small porch with pedimented roof shelters a centrally-located main entrance topped by a leaded glass transom and flanked by sidelights and fluted pilasters rising to a dentilled entablature with modillioned cornice. Above the entrance is a tripartite Palladian window. The other windows&#39; trim echoes the main entrance, as do the paired rounded-arch windows in the attic on the north and south profiles. The smaller kitchen wing has no decoration. Its roof covers a porch on the south.</p><br>
<p>Inside, the entrance hallway divides two large parlors with much original finishing, including carved moldings and mantels, original wall and ceiling plaster and flooring. The original fireplace and bake oven are still in the kitchen wing.</p><br>
<h2>Aesthetics</h2><br>
<p>The house&#39;s ornamentation is unusual for Federal style homes in general, not just in the Hudson Valley. That quality is balanced by the overall form, very much in keeping with regional building traditions. These reflect the aspirations and tastes of its builders at that time in history.</p><br>
<p>Wakefield Worcester, who visited the house for the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1937, wondered if the builder might have been a cabinetmaker due to the high level of exterior detail. He found it a stark contrast to the relatively bare interior.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Thomas Tabor, the builder of the house, had come to the future Town of Dover as a young boy with his father from Rhode Island in 1748, when it was largely uninhabited by European settlers. His father willed him his landholdings, including all of present-day Dover Plains, upon his death in 1782. After building the house around 1810, shortly after the town was established, he in turn willed it to his daughter Sally. She was married to Mahlon Wing, another of the area&#39;s prominent landowners for whom the hamlet of Wingdale is named.</p><br>
<p>Wing descendants would occupy the house for over 75 years, from 1839 until 1926 until Theodore Wing&#39;s widow Mary died in 1926. In 1928 the house was sold to Frank and Mae Connell. Shortly afterwards, modern oil heating was installed. It was acquired in May, 1977 by the Dover Historical Society, which made many improvements to its infrastructure before it was put into service as a library.</p><br>
<p>In 2003 the library moved out to larger quarters and the Historical Society donated it to the town. It began making improvements to the interior, restoring it to its original appearance and appropriate period furnishings. After it completed those restorations in 2006, it moved some of its offices in.</p><br>
<p>The John Clark House in Clarksdale, Mississippi was built in 1859 with elements of Greek Revival style. It was moved approximately 100 yd in 1916 to make way for a grand house, the Italian Renaissance style Cutrer Mansion, to be built in its place. The John Clark House was then remodeled, including that its "two-tiered one-bay porch supported with turned posts was replaced with a then-stylish Colonial Revival porch."</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. It now operates as an 8-guest room house, each of which have private baths.</p><br>

<p>The Downtown North Historic District is a 19 acre historic district in Hartford, Connecticut. It is a predominantly residential area located around Main Street and High Street north of I-84 and south of the Amtrak railroad tracks. Its apartment blocks, houses, schools and churches, built up mainly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as part of an expansion of the city&#39;s urban core. It includes the 130 ft Keney Tower. The area was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Hartford&#39;s Downtown North Historic District is a roughly butterfly-shaped area, bounded on north by the Amtrak railroad tracks and centered on the junction of Albany Avenue with Main, High, Ely, and Ann Uccello Streets. The wings of the butterfly are located on either side of this junction, the left wing bounded on the south by Interstate 84 and Walnut Street, and the right wing bounded on the south by Winthrop Street. The eastern wing is dominated in size by the grounds of the former Barnard School, built in 1927 and now home to the Capital Preparatory Magnet School, with the Keney Tower park just to its north. The tower, a freestanding Gothic Revival structure designed by Charles C. Haight and built in 1898, is a memorial to the locally prominent Keney family, whose home and business were here. North of the tower is the Sacred Heart Church, a brick Gothic Revival church built in 1892. Across Main Street from the school are a row of Italianate duplex residences, built in the 1890s.</p><br>
<p>At the triangular junction between Ann Uccello and High Streets is a "Flatiron" building, 105 ft in height, built in 1896 to a design by Frederick Comstock. South of that building on Ann Uccello Street are a series of residential buildings, some single-family and some multiunit. The most elaborate is the Arthur G. Pomeroy House, a fine Queen Anne Victorian built in 1882. On the west side of High Street stands the Isham-Terry House, a c. 1854 Italianate villa that is now a historic house museum, and the Classical Revival Second North District School, built in 1891 and now housing the citys board of education. The area just to its south was a residential area when the district was listed in 2004, but that has been razed and is now occupied by the citys police headquarters.</p><br>

<p>The Basílica of the Black Virgin of Monserrat  is a historic Catholic shrine built in the town of Hormigueros, Puerto Rico, dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary as a Black Madonna under the Marian title of “Virgin of Montserrat”.</p><br>
<p>Pope John Paul II granted a pontifical decree of canonical coronation titled Omnibus Manifestum towards its venerated Marian image on 18 July 1994. The Archbishop of San Juan, Cardinal Luis Aponte Martínez, executed the rite of coronation on 12 February 1995. The same Pontiff issued a decree titled Celeberrimum in Civitate that raised the sanctuary to the status of a minor basilica on 19 May 1998.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The foundation of the basilica is on the site of a rural chapel built by the Catalan estate owner Don Gerardo González, who was the owner of the valleys of the region. Although the specific date when the original chapel was constructed is not known, some records date it as far as 1590. Also, radiocarbon dating tests done to pieces of wood from a coffin found in the basilica point to the existence of the chapel as far back as 1570.</p><br>
<p>The structure combines romantic elements and styles in its architecture, including a bell tower with Mozarabic elements.</p><br>
<p>In 1696, the chapel acquired a guest house called Casa de Peligrinos (Pilgrims House). In 1814, Juan Alejo de Arizmendi, the first native Puerto Rican bishop, fell ill in this house after traveling around the island in his second pastoral visit.</p><br>
<p>He desired to be buried in his beloved chapel. He died in Arecibo the following October 12, but his wishes were not followed, burial instead taking place in his cathedral. The house is now the rectory of the basilica.</p><br>
<p>The basilica and its rectory were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 as the Santuario de la Monserate de Hormigueros and Casa de Peregrinos.</p><br>
<p>On 19 May 1998, Pope John Paul II issued a pontifical decree that raised the status of the structure to a minor basilica, a distinction held previously on the island only by the Cathedral of San Juan Bautista in the capital.</p><br>
<p>On 24 October 1999, the Archbishop of San Juan, Roberto González Nieves, Roberto González Nieves read the papal decree before the public in commemoration of the shrines 400th centennial anniversary.</p><br>
<h2>Folklore</h2><br>
<p>There is folklore about the towns founder, an explanation of why the church in the town, Basílica Menor de la Virgen de Monserrate, became so important. The legend has to do with the townspeople aiding Geraldo in finding his eight-year-old daughter, "with eyes as blue as the turquoise skies", when she disappeared. When his daughter was found 15 days later she was unharmed, not hungry, and unafraid and happily explained that a beautiful, black woman had helped her, caressed her face and given her fruit. Geraldo reported it was the Virgin of Montserrat and Geraldo said that for having helped his daughter she would be venerated for all ages. Many people heard of the tale but it had not been the first tale from Geraldo. Some versions of the story state the bulls legs actually broke rendering the bull immobile and unable to charge at him. Since then, many Catholics perform penitence by walking the steps to the church on their knees. Many pilgrimages have been made to the church, even as early as in the 17th century.</p><br>
<p>The Wye River plantation, or Wye Hall was the Eastern Shore of Maryland home of William Paca, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, constructed in 1765, and extensively renovated in 1790 by John Paca, with Joseph Clark as architect, at a cost of $20,000. He gained ownership of the property in Queen Anne&#39;s County, Maryland, through his wife, Mary Chew. John Beale Bordley and Margaret Chew inherited the other half of Wye Island.</p><br>
<p>William Paca is buried at the family cemetery there. The Paca residence burned down in 1879. The University of Maryland, College Park conducted archeological work there.</p><br>
<p>Wye Hall was built in the 1930s on the site of the estate of William Paca. In 1999, it was purchased by Leland C. Brendsel. A mechanic&#39;s lien was filed for work done there.</p><br>
<p>Lonetree  is a ghost town in Chouteau County, Montana, United States. Founded circa 1885, it is located at {{coord|47|32|30|N|110|17|03|W|type:city}} , at an altitude of 3,123 feet . For nearly thirty years Lonetree possessed a post office, which was opened under the name of Steele on March 9, 1888; its name was changed to Lonetree on May 15, 1914. It bore this name for less than a year before closing on March 31, 1915.</p><br>
<p>The entire community of Lonetree was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Knapp Farm, is a historic farmhouse located at the corner of Dekalb Pike and Knapp Road in Montgomery Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It is also the only township property on the National Register of Historic Places. The farm, which occupies property originally settled just after 1700 by English immigrants, now sits adjacent to busy Montgomery Mall. The earliest section of the farmhouse was erected around 1760. It is a 2-story, four-bay, stuccoed stone Germanic house. A brick kitchen wing was added in the mid-19th century.</p><br>
<p>The property was continuously occupied and farmed until the late 1990s. In 2005, the farmhouse became the property of the Montgomery Township Historical Society (MTHS). The house along with seven acres of open space was donated to the society as part of a development agreement that allowed residential development on the remaining acreage. MTHS is working to restore the property and plans to use it as the society&#39;s headquarters as well as an education center to interpret the rural history of the North Penn area.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<p>The Mamakating Park Historic District is located on the ridge north of Masten Lake on the highest ground in the Town of Mamakating, New York, United States. It is a Catskill vacation community, originally intended to be the much larger Sullivan County Club, built in the 1890s.</p><br>
<p>It includes several dozen Late Victorian cottages, most of which are as they were originally built, arranged around the site of a former hotel building, and some other buildings from the mid-20th century. These few elements show the essential ideas of the much larger original resort plan. In 1998 it was recognized as a historic district and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Geography and properties</h2><br>
<p>The district is a 40 acre area around the horseshoe-shaped junctions of Columbian Road, Mamakating Avenue and Park Road, extending to the north from its northeast corner to include the houses along Park there. It is mostly wooded, with the middle of the horseshoe, where the former hotel was located along with its still-extant tennis courts, the only open space. A small rise near the south end of the horseshoe is, at 1,648 ft above sea level, the highest point in the Town of Mamakating.</p><br>
<p>It includes 48 buildings, all but three of which date to the time of the community&#39;s original construction and are thus considered contributing properties to its historic character. The site of the former hotel, and some of its dependencies such as a chapel and casino, are also contributing. Some of the original landscaping is still in place as well.</p><br>
<p>Most of the houses are frame, built in styles typical of their fin-de-siècle era, such as the Shingle style, after the main hotel. They are characterized by Late Victorian touches such as large verandas, cross-gabling and eclectic use of decorative elements.</p><br>
<h3>Aesthetics</h3><br>
<p>The plan for what became Mamakating Park was laid out by William Henry Baldwin, an engineer from Yonkers. Its scale may have been inspired by Tuxedo Park, America&#39;s first gated community, in neighboring Orange County. It had some curving streets and rustic, forest-inspired names like Fox Trail and Maplewood Lane (never built), but mostly follows a grid layout more typical of wilderness religious camp meetings of the era, which tend to cluster groups of cottages around structures of communal function and importance, rather than curving and winding as streets in Tuxedo Park and similar communities do.</p><br>
<p>Like other mountain resort communities, the homes in the original plan were sited to take advantage of their natural location. The grid extended north and south along the ridge, with many houses to have been built close to the street where the land dropped off sharply. That would have allowed them to take in the view to the Shawangunks over Wurtsboro in that direction, or the Catskills to the north and west.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Mamakating Park began as the Sullivan County Club, a group of New York City businessmen who planned a Catskill vacation community similar in design to Elka Park and Onteora Park in Greene County, but much larger in scale. For much of the 19th century, Masten Lake to the south had been owned by the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company and reserved for use as a fedder reservoir, but with traffic on the canal declining to a minimum as railroads displaced it, it had started to become a summer resort destination for city residents looking for fresh air.</p><br>
<p>In 1893, the club bought 4,600 acre, including the lake and the ridge north of it, from a Yonkers family with the intent of developing it into a summer cottage community surrounding a large hotel., taking advantage of the views of the Shawangunk Ridge to the southeast. Recent extensions of the Orange & Western Railroad into Sullivan County made the area accessible within a day&#39;s travel to city residents, and after the subdivision of the land, 2,000 half-acre (2,000 m) lots were put on sale the next year at an initial price of $100 ($ in 2009 dollars) each. Demand was such that the club members were soon able to increase their asking price to $125 ($).</p><br>
<p>With 359 lots sold by 1894, the club contracted the New York firm of Delhi & Lawrence to design the main hotel and considered building a cable railroad to improve access to the club from the nearby village of Wurtsboro. But in 1897, delayed economic fallout from the Panic of 1893 finally led to the original plans being shelved after the hotel and 20 lots near it had been developed.</p><br>
<p>In 1902, after the Sullivan County Club was foreclosed on, a new group of investors calling itself the Mamakating Park Company bought the hotel and the remaining undeveloped lots. They promoted the resort aggressively in New York newspapers, with the added bonus of many of the cottage owners renting them out for periods of time, and slowly added amenities such as a multicar garage that reflected the rise of automobile travel. In 1913 they were successful enough to run ads noting that "temperance principles will be adhered to" and that tuberculosis patients were restricted.</p><br>
<p>Another economic downturn, the Great Depression of the 1930s, led the Mamakating Park Company to fold, and the hotel and its properties were leased to different operators. Late in the decade, newly affluent Jews began moving in (leading some other residents to move out).</p><br>
<p>The Sullivan mansion became the main building of Camp Lakota.</p><br>
<p>The Mamakating Park Inn effected the construction of the casino, barber shop and some other buildings in the hotel complex, and was part of the "borscht belt," featuring entertainers like Red Buttons. Relations between the hotel owners and the surrounding property owners were cordial, and residents were invited to attend the Friday and Saturday evening events at the casino.</p><br>
<p>The owners of the homes surrounding the Inn, led by Evelyn Jablons, organized as the Mamakating Park Property Owners Civic Association after World War II bought a section of lakefront property for members to use and created a beachfront, cabanas, and swimming area. The hotel and Camp Lakota had their own, separate beachfronts.</p><br>
<p>After the hotel finally shut down in the 1950s, Camp Lakota bought the property and used the buildings. The hotel itself was destroyed in a 1970s fire. During the 1980s, a few new houses were built on the remaining vacant lots. In the late 1990s, the camp began restoring some of the other buildings.</p><br>
<p>The Lewis and Clark Bridge is a historic bridge in Wolf Point, Montana, which once carried Montana Highway 13 across the Missouri River between McCone and Roosevelt counties. It is also known as Wolf Point Bridge, Missouri River Bridge, or Site No. 24RV438. The bridge is a five-span Pennsylvania through truss; its longest span is the longest through truss span in the state at 400 ft. Completed in 1930 by the Missouri Valley Bridge and Iron Company, the bridge was the first bridge across the Missouri River at Wolf Point and the only bridge along the river for a 350 mi stretch. The bridges opening ceremony, which took place on July 9, drew over 10,000 visitors and included five bands and a fireworks display. After its completion, the bridge became a popular tourist attraction for motorists in northeastern Montana and a point of civic pride for Wolf Points residents.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 24, 1997.</p><br>
<p>It spans between McCone and Roosevelt counties.</p><br>
<p>The Water Tower was built in 1897 by Challenge Wind and Feed mill Company of Batavia, Illinois. This is a rare wooden tank atop a brick tower type of water tower. Built on a limestone foundation, it is 140 ft tall and about 20 ft in diameter. The brick walls are 2 ft thick.</p><br>
<p>The original tank was replaced by the Challenge Company in 1924. The tank is made of horizontal battens of cypress, held in place by metal binder rings. The Water Tower and Town Hall, constructed in 1897. Remington, the largest community in Carpenter Township. The town has of approximately 1250 people, founded in 1860. The area is predominantly agricultural. The early stimulus for the growth was the Toledo, Logansport & Burlington Railroad line, established in 1859. The water tower was in use until 1984 when a new water tower was built.</p><br>
<p>The Challenge Wind Mill & Feed Mill Company of Batavia, Illinois constructed the water tower and town hall. Built with a limestone foundation, common bond brick tower and cypress wood tank measure 104 ft high and 20 ft in diameter. The brick walls are 2 ft thick. The water tank holds 66,000 gal. The double semicircular header bond arched opening holds two ledged batten doors that open out. A dedication plaque from the Challenge Wind Mill and Feed Mill Company is affixed above the door. Spiraling up the water tower are a series of eight arched wood frame windows with limestone sills. There are two windows on each "side" facing the cardinal points.</p><br>
<p>The water tank is constructed of horizontally curved cypress battens and dates to 1927. The roof of the water tank was originally cedar shingles but it was replaced in 2003 with plywood and rolled shingles. The 18 by single story brick structure on the east side may have housed the town hall. It sits on a limestone foundation and is constructed of painted common bond brick. The low pitched gable roof is covered with asphalt shingles and conforms on the west end to the curve of the water tower.</p><br>
<h2>Interior</h2><br>
<p>The interiors of the tower and the town hall are covered with parging. The semicircular arch connecting the two has been altered to accommodate a rectangular door. Several pipes encumber the first floor of the water tower. There is a wood staircase leading up to the second floor. The floor itself was constructed of wood and repaired after a 1905 fire. From the second floor a narrow staircase spirals through the tower along the interior wall for about 70 ft. The staircase and floors were constructed from the scaffolding the</p><br>
<p>workers used to build the tower. Then the exterior metal ladder and walkway must be used to access the tank. The town hall retains the pressed metal ceiling and cornice.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The small farming community of Remington dates its founding to 1860. By 1870, the population reached 390. The needs of the town were growing and soon after there were three churches, a school, and several commercial buildings. Around 1887, a forty-foot tower was built near the town jail to house the fire bell. By 1890 when the town government had outgrown its jail building, the jail was sold to purchase a lot and school.</p><br>
<p>It was in the 1870s–80s that water systems spread rapidly across the country. The city of Rensselaer, the county seat of Jasper County, had a population of 4000 before it had the infrastructure to provide regular city water in 1900. In 1897 the Remington water tower made wells and cisterns obsolete for firefighting and drinking water.</p><br>

<p>The Cumberland Covered Bridge, also known as the Matthews Covered Bridge, is a historic covered bridge spanning the Mississinewa River at Jefferson Township and Matthews, Grant County, Indiana. It was originally called the New Cumberland Covered Bridge, it was built in 1877 by William Parks of Marion, Indiana. This Howe Truss bridge is 181 ft long. It is the only remaining covered bridge in Grant County.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Floods</h2><br>
<p>The bridge was floated 0.5 mi downstream during the 1913 flood. It was returned upstream on rollers dragged by horses. The foundations were raised an additional 3 ft at that time. The 1958 flood only loosened a few boards.</p><br>
<p>The Medora Covered Bridge was the longest covered bridge in the United states with the entire original historic truss still in place with some repairs but no structural changes. Measuring the clear span  of 431 ft, the Medora Covered Bridge is the longest historic covered bridge in the United States. The roof length of 461 ft and the siding at the floor length of 459 ft are also the longest historic covered bridge measurements in the USA</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>The Medora Covered Bridge is located in Carr Township in Jackson County, Indiana, and crosses the East Fork of the White River running parallel to State Road 235. It is approximately 1 mi east of Medora and 9 mi southwest of Brownstown.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Medora Covered Bridge was built in 1875 by J. J. Daniels at a cost of $18,142.00 and took nine months to build. The bridge was covered to protect the truss from the elements. Before the bridge was built people crossed the river by ferry.</p><br>
<p>It has been reported but not verified that at one time there was wooden railing down the middle of the bridge separating the two-way traffic. As the vehicles became wider, the railing was removed and it was then one-way.</p><br>
<p>Until 1935 the bridge carried USA Route 50 when it (US 50) was moved four miles to the north.</p><br>
<p>In 1968 the bridge was scheduled for demolition when the new modern parallel bridge was to be opened, but was saved by an order from then Governor Whitcomb in 1971.</p><br>
<p>A modern parallel bridge was opened in 1973. The covered bridge was closed to vehicular traffic at that time.</p><br>
<p>In 2007, the bridge was added to the.</p><br>
<p>In June 2011 a rehabilitation of the bridge was completed. The original truss remained in place with a few repairs. The cedar shake shingles, siding (seven of the original boards, identified by square nail holes, were placed on the north side of the far west end), pylons, and some of the rafters were replaced. Except for the shingles, most of these items were original but badly deteriorated. Much of the flooring was replaced but was not original.</p><br>

<p>The Virginia City Historic District is a National Historic Landmark District encompassing Virginia City, Montana, United States. Designated in 1966, the district includes over two hundred nineteenth-century buildings, representing the site of a major gold strike and the capital of Montana for ten years.</p><br>
<p>Virginia City was founded in the early 1860s, in the wake of a major gold find in Alder Gulch, which ascends into the mountains to the south. It grew rapidly with the influx of gold seekers, and was by 1865 so large and prosperous that it was made the capital of the Montana Territory. Alder Gulch was lined with mining communities of all sizes, with an estimated total population of 10,000 in 1865. Of these, Virginia City was the largest, and is the only major community to survive later declines in the mining economy. By the 1930s large mining operations had either demolished or buried most of the other communities. In the 1940s Charles and Sue Bovey began to buy up abandoned buildings and restoring them, in effect creating an open-air museum.</p><br>
<p>The landmark district encompasses an area of about 20,000 acres (81 square kilometers), including the entire city limits of Virginia City and a significant portion of Alder Gulch where mining operations took place. Many of the citys buildings were built before the turn of the 20th century, and a significant number date to its heyday in the 1860s. Many of the commercial buildings are of wood-frame construction, and have traditional false front facades. The single most prominent building is the Madison County Courthouse, built in 1875. A few of the surviving 19th-century buildings have log construction, and harken back to the citys earliest days.</p><br>
<p>Billy Simpsons House of Seafood and Steaks, also known as The Ebony Table, Kushners Sea Food Grill, Minoux Bakery, Harry C. Johnson & Son, or The Kaieteur, was a restaurant on Georgia Avenue in the Northwest area of Washington, D.C. The restaurant offered fine dining to the citys black middle and upper classes. Many notable people in politics, government, and entertainment frequented the establishment. The owner, William W. "Billy" Simpson, was a supporter of the eras civil rights and anti-war causes.</p><br>
<p>The building that housed the restaurant is located at 3815 Georgia Avenue NW and was constructed in 1923 as one in a row of four attached brick buildings.</p><br>
<p>In April 2012, the French Bistro Chez Billy was opened on the site.</p><br>

<p>The 1897 Poe House&#39; is a historic home located at Fayetteville, Cumberland County, North Carolina.</p><br>
<p>It was built between 1896 and 1898, and is a two-story, three-bay frame house with Eastlake movement / Stick Style decorative elements. It features a wraparound porch which is double-tiered in the central bay and graced by delicate sawnwork and turned posts.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. It is located in the Haymount Historic District.</p><br>
<p>It is named after the successful businessman, politician, and civic leader who built it; not the well-known American author Edgar Allan Poe. To avoid confusion, the Fayetteville native is generally referenced as "E. A." in the local area and the historic house museum is known simply as Poe House. It is also referenced as the 1897 Poe House and part of the Museum of the Cape Fear Historical Complex.</p><br>
<p>The Edgar Allan Poe House is a historic home located in Caldwell County at 506 Main Street NW in Lenoir, North Carolina.</p><br>
<p>The two-story Dutch Colonial Revival style house with wraparound porch and gambrel roof was built in 1905 by Edgar Allan Poe, who was not the famous Boston poet born 1809. After finishing law school, Poe moved to Asheville in 1890 and worked as a carpenter with local architecture firm Alfonse, building structures in Hickory. Additionally Poe contributed to the beginning construction of Vanderbilts Biltmore Estate in Asheville. The business district in the town of Lenoir was founded in 1841. Growth was slow until the arrival of Chester & Lenoir Railroad in 1884, which boosted trade and industrial development. During this local industrial boom, Poe moved from his native home of Dallas, North Carolina, to Lenoir in 1893. Poe constructed several commercial buildings in Lenoir including the Courtney Building (1907) and the Lenoir Furniture and Hardware Building (1908). The largest contract attributed to Poe was the construction of the Caldwell County Courthouse (1903). In 1897 on October 28 Edgar Allan Poe married Eugenia Maude Miller, daughter of a pioneering family who moved to Caldwell County in the early 1890s. The Miller family owned property on North Main Street and built a house where Eugenia Maude lived until marriage. Poe built his first house in the neighborhood of his in-laws, on Scroggs Street. Poes two children, Eugene Allan (1898-1964) and Carolyn Ransom (1903-1979), were born in the house on Scroggs Street. In 1905, the Poe family bought a half acre on North Main Street and began constructing their second home. This second house on North Main Street remained in ownership of the Poe family until August 1999. Poe was an active member of the community as an architect, a prolific builder, a lawyer, and the mayor of Lenoir for four years.</p><br>
<p>The home was restored by Joel Kincaid and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in March 2001.</p><br>
<p>The Museum of Sonoma County, commonly known as the Sonoma County Museum, is a non-profit organization located in downtown Santa Rosa, California. Its 7th St. campus comprises the historic 1910 Santa Rosa Post Office, a contemporary art gallery, and a sculpture garden. Between the two buildings, the Museum presents 10-12 rotating exhibitions per year and maintains a permanent collection of over 18,000 objects that document the region&#39;s rich history and celebrate local artists. The historic post office is on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Santa Rosa’s Historic 1910 Post Office and Federal Building</h3><br>
<p>Originally housed in the old adobe home on Maria Carrillo&#39;s Rancho Cabeza de Santa Rosa, the Santa Rosa Post Office was later relocated in the Atheneum Theatre building on Fifth and D Streets. It was finally slated to be given a permanent home through a bill introduced in the House of Representatives on March 8, 1906. The legislation called for “the purchase of a site and erection of a public building at Santa Rosa, California... a suitable building with fireproof vaults therein, for the accommodation of the post-office and other government offices... ” with the entire amount of funding not to exceed “the sum of one hundred thousand dollars.” A month after the legislation was introduced, the 1906 earthquake destroyed most of downtown Santa Rosa. As a result, the Santa Rosa Post Office operated temporarily out of Jenkins Grocery, surrounded by wreckage and debris.</p><br>
<p>Local hop dealer, C.C. Donovan, wrote to James Knox Taylor, Supervising Architect of Federal Buildings, asking him to give priority to the construction of the new Post Office slated for Santa Rosa. Taylor (known as the national architect) designed a structure that linked architectural design to the history, environment, and culture of the community and its surroundings. The new Santa Rosa Post Office building was an example of Classic Federal Architecture in California, a design style greatly influenced by the World&#39;s Columbian Exposition of 1893.</p><br>
<p>Construction of the new Post Office located at Fifth and A Streets began in 1908. The building process was a community effort, exemplified by determination and superior craftsmanship. The Santa Rosa-based contracting firm of Hoyt Bros. hired local firms to complete the majority of the interior and exterior work. Henry Kroncke of the Santa Rosa Planing Mills did the interior woodwork. J. C. Mailer Hardware installed the building&#39;s plumbing. Stone contractor, George Reilly, was responsible for the Bedford stone columns and marble terrazzo floors.</p><br>
<p>Technologically, the building was ahead of its time. Ray Oil Burner Company of San Francisco installed a new automatic oil burning system, which was not shown publicly in the Bay Area until the 1915 Panama Pacific Exposition in San Francisco. In addition to heating the building, the system provided hot showers for the mail carriers. On March 9, 1910, Post Master H. L. Tripp and his postal staff moved into the newly completed Santa Rosa Post Office.</p><br>
<h3>Moving the Museum</h3><br>
<p>The Santa Rosa Main Post Office was eventually relocated to 2nd Street and following the 1969 earthquake that ravaged much of downtown Santa Rosa, the historic post office was slated to be razed to make way for a mall. Architect Dan Peterson led the campaign to save the post office by proposing that it be moved out of the path of urban renewal. Starting in April 1979, workmen raised the great structure and lay before it a bed of rails and a network of pulleys and cables. The building moved, but almost imperceptibly — an average of 36 feet a day. The building was moved over 750 feet to its new home on 7th street, between A and B streets. Architect Dan Petersen restored it as a museum and placed the building onto the National Register of Historic Places. It reopened in 1985 as the Sonoma County Museum.</p><br>
<h3>Sculpture Garden</h3><br>
<p>The Sculpture Garden was designed by Frederic Warnecke, a landscape architect, son of renown architect John Carl Warnecke. It opened in the summer of 2011 and was dedicated to Evert B. and Norma Person.</p><br>
<h3>Contemporary art, expansion, and name change</h3><br>
<p>In 2001, Tom Golden of Freestone donated his collection of some 125 drawings, sculptures, collages and photographs by world-famous conceptual artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, remembered in Sonoma and Marin counties for their ‘70s project “Running Fence,” with white nylon fabric stretching more than 20 miles cross-country to Bodega Bay. In 2005, the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) merged with the Sonoma County Museum, when that organization scrapped plans for a $5.5 million facility at the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts. In 2015, the Museum expanded east into the remodeled back half of former Conklin Brothers flooring company warehouse at Seventh and B streets. The expansion came with a rebranding and the Sonoma County Museum was reborn as twins, with one museum for art (Art Museum of Sonoma County) and one for history (History Museum of Sonoma County), under the parent organization of the Museums of Sonoma County.</p><br>
<p>In 2018, the museum underwent a final name change to Museum of Sonoma County. The change from plural to singular reflects the Museum’s vision of being recognized as one organization with two buildings, multiple galleries, and a sculpture garden on its Seventh Street campus, rather than two separate entities (“Art Museum of Sonoma County” and “History Museum of Sonoma County”) under the umbrella of a parent organization ("Museums of Sonoma County"). “With our new name change, the Museum aims to bring art and history in alignment to allow for a more synergistic relationship between the two,” said Jeff Nathanson, executive director. “We are reimagining the Museum as a major cultural destination for the region, with a wide range of art and history programs for people of all ages and backgrounds.”</p><br>
<h2>Collection</h2><br>
<p>The museum maintains a permanent collection of over 18,000 objects that document the region&#39;s rich history and celebrate artists who have lived or worked in the North Bay. It includes extensive collections of historic paintings, sculpture, photographs, prints, costumes, textiles, ceramics, glass, industrial tools, machinery, wood sculpture, furniture, objects, documents, and graphics relative to the local communities, commerce, technologies, and lifestyles. Notable collections include:</p><br>
<p>Tom Golden&#39;s Christo and Jeanne-Claude collection, which the museum offers as a traveling exhibition. It includes 125 drawings, sculptures, collages, and photographs by world-famous conceptual artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, remembered in Sonoma and Marin counties for their ‘70s project “Running Fence,”</p><br>
<p>Marguerite Wildenhain ceramics</p><br>
<p>Carroll Barnes sculptures</p><br>
<p>19th century California landscapes by artists such as Thomas Hill, Frederick Farina Schafer, and Frederick Butman</p><br>
<p>Objects and artifacts related to the utopian community of Fountaingrove, Thomas Lake Harris, and Kanaye Nagasawa</p><br>
<p>Song Wong Bourbeau (1909-1996), a third-generation Santa Rosan, was known throughout Santa Rosa not only as an astute businesswoman, but for her tireless dedication as a community activist and philanthropist. Over two hundred photographs and artifacts make up this extensive collection, representing the rich and significant history and culture of Santa Rosa&#39;s Chinatown and Chinese community.</p><br>
<p>Boylan Heights is one of eight historic neighborhoods surrounding downtown Raleigh, North Carolina. Developed in the early 20th century it was one of the earliest planned suburbs in the city. From its apex at Montfort Hall, the neighborhood slops gradually south-east towards Western Boulevard. After petitions from residents, the neighborhood was added to the National Register of Historic Places as a historic district on July 29, 1985.</p><br>
<p>The national historic district encompasses 252 contributing buildings and was developed between 1907 and about 1935. It includes notable examples of Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, and Bungalow / American Craftsman style architecture.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Boylan Family 1818-1907</h3><br>
<p>Boylan Heights is named after the Boylan family who first moved to Raleigh in 1799. Originally from a prominent family in New Jersey, William M. Boylan Sr. moved to Halifax, North Carolina to work for his uncle sometime before 1797. After a short relocation to Fayetteville in 1797 the pair moved to the newly created state capital to publish Federalist Party newspapers, the North Carolina Minerva and Raleigh Advisor.</p><br>
<p>In 1818 Boylan Sr. purchased 197 acres of land for $3,000, which included what was the mainhouse of Wakefield Plantation, formerly owned by Raleigh and Wake County founding father Joel Lane. Along with his first wife Elizabeth Stokes McCulloch, who died in 1825 and his second wife Jane Elliot, he would live in the Joel Lane House until his death in 1861.</p><br>
<p>Boylan Sr. deeded his son William M. Boylan Jr. 100 acres in 1855. The boundary for the newly divided track was less than a quarter mile away from the Joel Lane House.Three years later Boylan Jr. hired English architect, William Percival and Raleigh builder Thomas H. Briggs Sr. Construction of Montfort Hall started shortly thereafter and was completed by 1858.</p><br>
<p>When Union Army soldiers set up camp at Dorothea Dix Hospital in Raleigh during April 1865 as many as 30,000 soldiers scattered across the hospitals campus, with some spilling over onto Boylan Jrs land. Montfort Hall was of the few surviving grand mansions left in Raleigh from the pre-Civil War era.</p><br>
<p>Following William Boylan Jr&#39;s death in 1899 the property passed to his wife Mary along with the majority of his holdings. When she passed two years later she bequeathed Montfort Hall to her children. She stated in her will that it was her wish that her own son William would purchase the home from his siblings and take care of it for the rest of his life.</p><br>
<p>William Boylan Jr&#39;s heirs sold the house and its surrounding land totaling 180 acres to the Greater Raleigh Land Company for $48,000 on June 15, 1907. Fourteen heirs had claim to a share of the property, including four minors who were represented by their guardian.</p><br>
<h3>Greater Raleigh Land Company 1907-1915</h3><br>
<p>The early 20th Century saw rapid expansion for Raleigh. Struggling farmers abandoned their land, moving to urban areas including Ashville, Durham, Charlotte, Burlington, High Point, and Raleigh. Industries in these cities provided them with new opportunities and the excitement of city life. Inturn creating a housing crisis that inspired real estate firms across the state to plot suburban developments. William Boylans 100+ acre plantation was a perfect location. Only a ten-minute walk from North Carolinas Capital Building, a short distance from Pullen Park, and just outside of the then-city limits to ensure privacy and tranquility.</p><br>
<p>Raleigh Real Estate & Trust Company oversaw a handful of these developments on the outskirts of the city. Cameron Park, and Historic Glenwood near Five Points were developed at the same time. For the Boylan Heights project, twelve partners came together to form the Greater Raleigh Land Company, including Thomas Henery Briggs Jr. whose father helped build Montfort Hall in the 1850s. According to the company&#39;s certification of incorporation, their object was "to buy land in large quantity and subdivide the land into lots and sell them." Many members of the group had either familiar or political connections to civic leaders. In practice, the company worked as a subsidiary of the Raleigh Real Estate & Trust Co.</p><br>
<p>Frank K. Ellington who served as the president of both companies and his partner J. Stanhope Wynne carefully planned Boylan Heights with a vision of its future character and social composition. Utilizing restrictive covenants they set a minimum construction value for each lot, with the highest value required on Boylan Avenue alongside the renamed Boylan Mansion.</p><br>
<p>Lot 72 to the immediate left of the mansion was sold to A.I. Kaplan for $900 in 1909, requiring at least a $3,000 home to be constructed. Lot 150, further down Boylan Ave. between Cabarrus Street & South Street was sold to J.A. Scott in the same year for $450. Mr. Scott was obligated to spend at least $2,000 constructing his home. Both houses need to sit at least twenty feet back from the front of their lots. Further away from the top of the neighborhood lot 215 was sold to Albert Finnell in 1913 for "$100 and other valuable consideration." He agreed to spend at least $1,000 in constructing his house.</p><br>
<p>As a result of the restrictions, lots on Boylan Ave. have large front lawns, many featuring wide porches. The rest of the development is a collection of smaller lots with little if any yard space.</p><br>
<p>Also included in the deed restrictions was an attempt to keep the neighborhood segregated. Every deed included a clause that barred black people from becoming residents. "The premises shall not be occupied by negros or a person of mixed or negro blood; Provided, that this shall not be construed to prevent the living upon the premises of any negro servant whose time is employed for domestic purposes by the occupants of the dwelling-home."</p><br>
<p>Boylan Heights was marketed as the highest point in Raleigh.</p><br>
<p>Perfect for builders, investors, or families. A large lot was set aside for Boylan Spring Park, though it would later be developed as a school for the neighborhoods children. An advertisement from 1909 instructed citizens to "let the pennies pay for a beautiful lot Boylan Heights." It further claimed that if you could save just fifty cents a day for a few months youd be able to afford one of the desirable lots.</p><br>
<p>As part of their marketing for the new development Greater Raleigh Land Company donated a lot valued at $700 to be actioned off at the 1908 Masonic Carnival. G.N. Walters was reported as the winner of the action, though there is no evidence the lot was ever deeded to him.</p><br>
<p>Once all of the development&#39;s lots were sold in 1915 The Greater Raleigh Land Company dissolved. Two remaining lots, one intended to be Boylan Spring Park and the other a triangular lot at the corner of Kinsey Street and Boylan Avenue were deeded to The Boylan Heights Improvement Association for $10. The association was given the lots to hold in trust for the use and benefit of all property owners within Boylan Heights.</p><br>
<h3>Pre-war Era 1917 - Great Depression</h3><br>
<p>For the first decade of development, the original vision of an economically diverse community looked to be a reality. Property records show Frank M. Jolly, owner and operator of Jolly Jeweler which closed after 130 years in 2011 lived across the street from Montfort Hall. Descending down Boylan Avenue where many other self-employed white-collar workers living in the homes. In contrast, residents of Cutler and Stokes worked blue-collar jobs.</p><br>
<p>Enough families moved in to justify the construction of a local school in the mid-1920s. On April 28, 1926 a meeting of the Boylan Heights Improvement Association voted in favor of selling the lot reserved for Boylan Spring Park to the then-town of Raleigh for the sum of $1 with the requirement that the land only be used as a school. If the City of Raleigh, now Wake County Public Schools ever stops using the land as a school it would return to the Improvement Association. On the 20th of the same month Raleigh voters approved a school bond that called for a six-grade school house with an auditorium to be built in the lot.</p><br>
<p>Raleigh was not immune to the Great Depression. As manufacturing output dropped along with textile wages, unemployment rose and many of Boylan Heights&#39; blue-collar residents became unable to afford their homes. Others turned their homes into apartments in an effort to save their land.</p><br>
<p>When economic trends started looking up white-collar voters flocked out of the neighborhood allowing their homes to become apartments or leaving them vacant.</p><br>
<h3>Post-war Era - Current</h3><br>
<p>According to residents at the time who were interviewed for the 1980 application for historical designation, by the 1940s absent landlords and vacant homes became common within Boylan Heights. Once the grandest home in Boylan Height, Montfort Hall itself was turned into apartments from 1948 to 1953 until eventually being left vacant.</p><br>
<p>Entering the 1960s Boylan Heights transitioned into a wholly working-class neighborhood. Flanked by Norfolk South railroad tracks to the North, Central Prison to the East, and Dorothea Dix Hospital to the South a disconnect formed between the neighborhood and the rest of the city.</p><br>
<p>It wasn&#39;t until the late 1970s that revitalization efforts within the community took hold. Lead by the owners of Montfort Hall, then operating as Boylan Heights Baptist Church, who applied for registration as a National Historic Landmark. Five years before the neighborhood submitted an application of its own.</p><br>
<p>Today, Boylan Heights is celebrated community. Hosting an annual art walk showcasing local artiest.</p><br>
<h2>In Media</h2><br>
<p>Boylan Heights was explored in the book Everything Sings: Maps for a Narrative Atlas which maps the neighborhood in unusual ways. Maps include the location of jack-o&#39;-lanterns on porches, radio waves permeating the air, the light from street lamps, and other attributes of Boylan Heights that cannot be mapped in a traditional way. The book was written by resident and critical cartographer Denis Wood.</p><br>
<p>Indy pop/rock band and Raleigh nativities, The Connells named their second album Boylan Heights after the neighborhood in 1987.</p><br>

Despite opposition from local preservationists, the house was demolished in 1975 and replaced with an office building.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 27, 1971. It was deemed significant as a "splendid example of substantial homes built on the Hill as Macons residential section moved to the higher elevation" from the citys business center. While the house was the first built on its block, by 1971 it was compressed between other houses. One of its few changes since construction was loss of a projecting bay window because an adjacent building was so close.</p><br>
<p>The nearby Judge Clifford Anderson House, built in the same era, was also outstanding and well-preserved, as of 1971.</p><br>
<p>In the city directories for Macon, the house is shown as being rented to two or three people in 1972 and 1973, but vacant in 1974. In 1975 the building was slated for demolition, which was opposed by the members of the Middle Georgia Historical Society (MGHS). But that organization did not have resources to rescue the house, and it was replaced by a modern medical office building. This loss spurred the creation of the Macon Heritage Foundation to effect such rescues. (That group eventually merged with MGHS to form the Historic Macon Foundation).</p><br>

<p>The Lassiter House, also known as the Treadwell House, is a historic residence in Autaugaville, Alabama, United States. The house was built in 1825 in the vernacular I-house style. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 17, 1997. It is also listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first owners of the house are recorded to be Jeremiah and Nancy Lassiter. Nancy was born in 1799 and Jeremiah was a stockholder with the Real Estate Banking Company of South Alabama in 1838. Curiously, the original land grants signed by J.Q. Adams in 1825 are to people who are not recorded as part of the Lassiter family, that being one “Mills Harrod” and an “(unintelligible) Guff”. Nevertheless, the house was subsequently owned by Peyton and Elizabeth (Betty) Anne Whetstone, then Joseph Baker Parker, Jr. and Mary “Minnie” Anna Parker, followed by Tilly (Bates) Park, Annie Lee (Parker) and Carlton Clyde (C.C.) Jones, and finally Minnie Evelyn (Jones) and George Treadwell. As of 1988, the property is in possession of George E. Treadwell of Emory, Virginia.</p><br>
<p>The Small House in Macon, Georgia, also known as Ralph Small House, Napier-Small House, or McMullan-Napier-Small House, is a "distinguished" example of high-style Greek Revival architecture that was built in 1846 by Skelton Napier.</p><br>
<p>Among Greek Revival works, it has two extraordinary features. One is that the Doric columns of its portico are in antis, i.e. set in between square columns (antae), at the two front corners. There is no known precedent in original Greece or in the Greek Revival style, for columns used in antis for a "pro-style temple type portico". The four fluted Doric columns and the antae support the entablature of the portico.</p><br>
<p>The second is that it has a low wooden parapet with carved acroteria above the entablature, serving as a gallery or corona, that is exceptionally well executed. This ornamentation is "a satisfying response to the theme set by the laurel wreaths of the frieze and at the same time a kind of counter-point to the baldness of the antae which terminate the colonade."</p><br>
<p>It was built facing Vineville Avenue and was approached along a long driveway lined with cedar trees. However, when the area was broken up into smaller lots it was moved and turned and no longer has a spacious and stately setting.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.</p><br>
<h2>Photos</h2><br>
<p>The house was photographically documented repeatedly in USA Federal Government projects, by Frances Benjamin Johnston, Carol Highsmith, and others.</p><br>
<p>Millwood is the site and ruins of an antebellum plantation house at 6100 Garner&#39;s Ferry Road , Columbia, South Carolina. Owned by Colonel Wade Hampton II and his wife Ann Fitzsimmons Hampton, it was the boyhood home of their first son Wade Hampton III and other children. He later became a Confederate general and later, South Carolina governor, and USA Senator.</p><br>
<p>After the death of Wade Hampton II in 1858, the house was inherited by his four unmarried daughters. On February 17, 1865, it was burned by General Sherman&#39;s troops the same time the city of Columbia was burned. On March 18, 1971, the ruins were named to the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Hampton family</h2><br>
<p>Wade Hampton I (1752–1835) was a lieutenant colonel in the American Revolutionary War, brigadier general in the War of 1812, a congressman, and a wealthy planter. When he died in 1835, he was considered one of the wealthiest men in America with plantations in Mississippi, Louisiana, and South Carolina; he was the wealthiest planter in the Southern United States.</p><br>
<p>Wade Hampton II (1791–1858) was called Colonel due to a commission in the South Carolina Militia. He served two terms in the South Carolina Senate. Although he never sought another political office, he played a major role in South Carolina politics. He was an avid sportsmen, hunter, and horse breeder.</p><br>
<p>Wade Hampton III (1818–1902) was the first son of Wade Hampton II. He served in the Confederate Army by leading Hampton&#39;s Legion rising to the rank of lieutenant general. After the war, near the end of Reconstruction, he was elected as the first Democratic, was after the Civil War a governor in the South since before the Civil War. He later was elected as a USA Senator from South Carolina.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Various sources indicate that Millwood was constructed in 1817, 1830, or after 1815 and probably in the 1830s, Since many early houses were expanded over the years, it is possible that there is truth in all the statements.</p><br>
<p>Wade Hampton II married his first wife, Ann Fitzsimons, in 1817. His father had given him his Mill Tract north of the present Garners Ferry Road. His fathers home was the original Woodlands south of the Garner&#39;s Ferry Road. Wade Hampton II built a raised, two-story cottage prior to the birth of Wade Hampton III in 1818. In 1837 or 1838, Millwood was remodeled in Greek Revival style by the architect Nathaniel Potter from Rhode Island. His plan had a wing on each side, six two-story columns at the center, and three smaller columns on each wing. The renovations took about two years. During this time, the family lived away including a resort near White Sulphur Springs.</p><br>
<p>An artistic rendition of the house has been published. It shows the central, two-story section with the prostyle, hexastyle portico. There were matching one-story wings fronted by three columns on either side. The central section of the sketch resembled the extant Millford Plantation house, which was built by Hampton&#39;s youngest sister and brother-in-law in Sumter County, South Carolina. Millford and the renovations of Millwood had the same architect, Nathaniel Porter.</p><br>
<p>A conjectural floor plan of Millwood&#39;s first floor was published based on Hampton family accounts. This shows that there was a central hall with two rooms on each side of the front of the house. With wide folding doors between these rooms, the entire width of the house could be open for entertaining and dancing. There was a cross hall behind these rooms that connected to the wings. There was a curving staircase to the second floor at the end of the main hall. The wings extended beyond the back of the central section.</p><br>
<h2>Millwood&#39;s role in South Carolina</h2><br>
<p>Because of the elegant entertaining and powerful guests, Millwood has been called the "social center of South Carolina" in the antebellum period. In addition to major South Carolina politicians, planters, and "aristocracy," national guests included Henry Clay and Daniel Webster.</p><br>
<p>The inaugural party for Governor William Aiken, Jr. in 1844 was held at Millwood.</p><br>
<h2>Destruction in 1865</h2><br>
<p>All that remained of the original Millwood were the twelve columns, the smoke house, the wing house, and a portion of the stable. Sometime later, the six shorter columns that were in front of the wings were torn down. Around 1930, one of the round columns toppled. Its base remains along with the three other round columns and two square columns.</p><br>
<p>The Miss Hamptons built a nearby cottage after the war. This was burned by arsonists after the bitterly contested gubernatorial election that Wade Hampton III won in 1876. They rebuilt a new two-story house around the old kitchen and laundry near the ruins of the original Millwood.</p><br>
<p>The Bray House is a historic house at 100 Pepperell Road in Kittery Point, Maine, United States. It is one of the oldest surviving buildings in the state. Long thought to be a 17th-century structure, the architectural evidence indicates the home was probably not built before 1720. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Bray House is set on the south side of Pepperell Road (Maine State Route 103), on a site overlooking the mouth of the Piscataqua River. It is a -story wood-frame residential structure, whose main block is five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, large central chimney, clapboard siding, and granite foundation. The entrance, centered on the river-facing south facade, is flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters and topped by an entablature. A former two-story extension to the east added two bays, and a narrow connecting segment joined the main house to a second -story house, oriented perpendicular to the main block, that was moved to this property in the early 20th century. All but the original central structure were demolished in 2017.</p><br>
<p>While this location is known to be the place where John Bray built a house in about 1662, the construction methods and styling of the house are consistent with a mid-18th century construction date.</p><br>
<p>Daryl Hall of Hall & Oates fame purchased the house at auction in 2008 and undertook a partial restoration. He sold the restored property for $2.0 million; the new owners have demolished all but the original structure, which is now flanked by modernist angular new construction.</p><br>
<p>Bellair, in Albemarle County, Virginia, is a historic farm.

Alford, was one of the founders of the organization. The church building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.</p><br>
<p>The congregation relocated to a Graymont Avenue in 1975, but a remnant of the members founded Old Sardis Baptist Church the next year to continue ministry at the historic site.</p><br>
<p>Cook County Courthouse in Grand Marais, Minnesota, United States, was built in 1911 and designed by architects Anton Werner Lignell and Clyde Wetmore Kelly. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>When Cook County was first organized, county business was conducted in a trading post on a spit of land that extended into Lake Superior. The first real courthouse building was built in 1889 and was a 24 by two-story frame building. It later received a one-story 20 by addition. The original frame courthouse was seen as "obsolete, limited in space, and far too modest an expression of the county&#39;s future," so in 1910, voters authorized the sale of bonds to build a new courthouse. The new building, completed in 1912, was built in the Classical Revival style and features Ionic columns supporting a cornice. It stands on a hill overlooking the city of Grand Marais and Lake Superior.</p><br>
<p>Briarcliff was the mansion and estate of Asa Griggs "Buddy" Candler Jr. , and is now the Briarcliff Campus of Emory University. The estate was built in 1922 on 42 acres on Williams Mill Road, now Briarcliff Road in Druid Hills near Atlanta. Williams Mill Road would be renamed Briarcliff Road in the 1920s after the estate that Asa Jr. would build there. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>Asa Jr. was the eccentric son of Asa Griggs Candler, co-founder of Coca-Cola. Candler Jr. helped build his fathers business into an empire. He later became a real-estate developer, opening the Briarcliff Hotel at the corner of Ponce de Leon Avenue and N. Highland Ave. in Atlantas Virginia Highland neighborhood.</p><br>
<h2>Beginnings as Briarcliff Farm</h2><br>
<p>In 1910, Asa Jr. moved from the fashionable Inman Park neighborhood where his father also had a mansion, to a "ramshackle" farmhouse on Briarcliff Farm, 42 acres. The farm was just north of Callanwolde, his brother Charles&#39; estate. Asa Jr. managed a huge agricultural operation which provided meat and produce to local retailers. Cows, sheep, pigs and chickens were raised on the farm. During World War I, Briarcliff Farm supplied milk to Fort Gordon.</p><br>
<p>The farm was lauded for its use of electric lights and fans, even individual drinking fountains for the cows, its cleanliness, air and light, resulting in sanitary conditions that led to higher yields and quality.</p><br>
<h2>Construction</h2><br>
<p>Briarcliff was built between 1920 and 1922, and featured a Georgian Revival exterior. Architect Dan Bodin assisted Frazier in overseeing the completion. In 1925, Candler had the mansion enlarged, including the music room.</p><br>
<h2>Features of the estate</h2><br>

<h3>Aeolian organ</h3><br>
<p>His father and older brother owned Aeolian organs, and to outdo them, in 1925 Candler had a $94,000, 88-rank, 187-stop, cathedral-sized Aeolian installed in the music room. It was the largest privately owned organ in Georgia at the time, and the 8th largest that Aeolian had ever built for a private residence. It was inaugurated in November 1925 in a recital by family friend Palmer Christian, which was broadcast over radio station WSB. In 1952 the organ was given to Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia. It was renovated in 2008 and is now known as the Goodwyn-Candler-Panoz organ.</p><br>
<h3>Menagerie of exotic animals</h3><br>
<p>Candler collected exotic birds and animals in a menagerie held at his estate with cages designed by architect Bodin. The collection included a Bengal tiger, four lions, a black leopard, a gorilla, baboons, and six elephants: Coca, Cola, Pause, Refreshes, Refreshing and Delicious. In 1935, Candler, in financial trouble, put up his pipe organ for sale. A neighbor sued and won a $10,000 settlement because "a baboon jumped over the wall of the zoo and devoured $60 in currency out of her purse". He gave away his entire menagerie of animals to the Grant Park Zoo, now Zoo Atlanta.</p><br>
<p>The mansion also included two swimming pools, one open to the public for 25 cents per person. The pool had a neon-lighted fountain that was lit at night. The pool area was landscaped with flowers and shrubs. There was a stand to buy Coca-Cola and snacks.</p><br>
<h2>Sale of estate and later uses</h2><br>
<p>The Candlers sold their estate to the General Services Administration in 1948. The planned veterans&#39; hospital never emerged, and the estate was used to house the Georgian Clinic (later the DeKalb County Addiction Center), which opened in 1953 as the first alcohol treatment facility in Georgia. The clinic kept the pool open for its patients until the late 1950s, then closed it for lack of funds.</p><br>
<p>From 1965 to 1997, the estate housed the Georgia Mental Health Institute in a multi-story tower surrounded by multiple cottages connected by tunnels.</p><br>
<p>There are reports of hauntings at the estate.</p><br>
<p>The complex is now the Briarcliff Campus of Emory University, but the mansion remains empty and in disrepair.</p><br>
<p>The mansion is a location for the TV show Doom Patrol according to a making-of extra on the season one Blu-ray.</p><br>
