<p>Palace Theatre, formerly Orpheum Theatre, Orpheum-Palace Theatre, Broadway Palace, Fox Palace, and New Palace Theatre, is a historic five-story theater and office building located at 636 S. Broadway in the Broadway Theater District in the historic core of downtown Los Angeles. It is the oldest theater that remains on Broadway and the oldest remaining original Orpheum theater in the United States.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Beginnings</h3><br>
<p>Downtown Los Angeless Palace Theatre was originally built as the third home of Los Angeless Orpheum Circuit. Opened in 1911, the building was designed by G. Albert Lansburgh and Robert Brown Young, the former of whom would later design the nearby Orpheum Theatre, Hollywood Pacific Theatre, and many other theaters across the United States. The theater&#39;s seating capacity at opening was slightly less than 2,000.</p><br>
<p>As the home of Los Angeless Orpheum Circuit, many notable performers performed here during its early years, including Harry Houdini, Will Rogers, Fred Astaire, and Rita Hayworth. This continued until 1926, when the Orpheum Circuits fourth home opened a couple blocks away.</p><br>
<h3>Conversion to movies</h3><br>
<p>In 1926, Palace Theater was converted to a silent movie theater Anthony Heinsbergen led an interior remodel, with the original box seats removed and the interior walls plastered and covered with Candelario Rivas-painted murals. These and other alterations lowered the theaters capacity to around 1,000. Fox West Coast Theatres also added an exterior marquee and they opened the theaters upper balcony to all patrons, as previously the theater was segregated, with the upper balcony only available to African Americans.</p><br>
<p>In the early-1940’s, the theater was briefly operated by Sol Lesser’s Principal Theaters Corporation, and by 1943 it was known as the New Palace Theatre. The theater was renamed again on January 24, 1947, to Palace Theatre.</p><br>
<p>Metropolitan Theatres took over the theater in August 1978, after which it began showing Spanish language and grindhouse movies, then mainstream movies with Spanish subtitles. The theater shut down as a movie theater in late-2000.</p><br>
<h3>Historic designation</h3><br>
<p>In 1979, Los Angeles&#39;s Broadway Theater and Commercial District was added to the National Register of Historic Places, with Palace Theater listed as a contributing property in the district. In 1989, the building was designated Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument #449.</p><br>
<h3>Return to live events</h3><br>
<p>After Palace Theater, closed as a movie theater, it remained available for private and special events. Broadway Theatre Group then took over, and in 2010 they began a $1 million restoration effort. The theater reopened as a live venue in June 2011, although it does still show the occasional movie.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture and design</h2><br>
<p>Palace Theater was designed after an early Renaissance palazzo in Florence, Italy.), swags, flowers, fairies, and theater masks, all meant to illustrate the spirit of entertainment. The facade also features four sculpted panels that depict song, dance, music, and drama, all done by Domingo Mora, while the building itself features arched windows and polychrome cornices, spandrels, keys, and friezes that include an array of ornamentation in the form of bells, harps, grape clusters, and masks.</p><br>
<p>Palace Theatres interior design is French and features garland-draped columns and pale pastel colors. The buildings upper-floors, designed for offices, feature large window openings and long and open floorprints.</p><br>
<h2>Filming location</h2><br>
<p>Many movies have shot at Palace Theatre, including The Frank Sinatra Story, Gypsy, The Glimmer Man, and Dreamgirls.</p><br>
<p>The Henry County Sheriffs Residence and Jail is a government building in Napoleon, Ohio, United States. Built in 1882 to a design by architect D.W. Gibbs, the residence-and-jail is located adjacent to the Henry County Courthouse in the citys downtown.</p><br>
<h2>Structure</h2><br>
<p>On November 9, 1879, a fire destroyed the previous Henry County Courthouse. Within three months, the county had secured the approval of the Ohio General Assembly to issue bonds to pay for the construction of a new courthouse, sheriff&#39;s house, and jail. The jail side of the resulting brick building, designed to be fireproof, was built to separate male prisoners from female prisoners and young inmates from elderly inmates. Its twelve iron cells are connected by sixty feet of concrete-floored corridors. A report prepared by a state humanitarian board in 1913 observed that the building was equipped with electricity and hot and cold running water; maintenance of the jail and provision of food for its inmates was the responsibility of the sheriff. Some prisoners in Henry County were housed separately: many smaller jails, ranging in capacity from one cell to four cells, were maintained by the villages of the county.</p><br>
<h2>End of the jail</h2><br>
<p>Into the 1980s, the sheriffs house and jail retained a great degree of integrity; it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 24, 1981, in recognition of its architectural significance. The late 1980s saw a conversion in the buildings purpose: by this time, increasing crime rates had led to overcrowding at many jails in northwestern Ohio. In early 1989, officials from five northwestern Ohio counties and the city of Toledo agreed to create a single regional jail complex. Because Henry County was part of this consortium, the 1882 building ceased to be used for detention purposes; instead, it was converted into offices for the sheriffs department, a call center for the countys 9-1-1 system, and office space for other county agencies. Today, the jail remains the location of the sheriff&#39;s office.</p><br>

<p>St. John the Baptist Catholic Church is a historic Roman Catholic church in Marion Township, Mercer County, Ohio, United States. Located in the unincorporated community of Maria Stein, it is the home of an active congregation and has been recognized as a historic site because of its well-preserved late nineteenth-century Romanesque Revival architecture.</p><br>
<h2>Parish history</h2><br>
<p>The community of St. Johns was established in 1833. When the Cincinnati, Hamilton, and Dayton Railway expanded through Mercer County some years later, its surveyors chose a path through the small community of Maria Stein, to the west of St. Johns. As these two communities were separated by only 0.5 mi, business interests migrated to the vicinity of the railroad, and the two communities eventually merged under the name of Maria Stein.</p><br>
<p>Large numbers of Catholics from northern Europe settled in southern Mercer County and surrounding regions in the early nineteenth century because of the activities of the Society of the Precious Blood in the region. The center of the society&#39;s activities was the Maria Stein Convent, located less than 1 mi north of St. Johns. From this convent was derived the name of the community.</p><br>
<p>St. John the Baptist Parish was founded in St. Johns in 1837 by priests of the Society from the village of Minster to the east; at that time, it was dedicated to John the Baptist. A small log church was erected to house the congregation, but the number of parishioners soon grew to the point that it was inadequate to house the congregation. Accordingly, a brick church was built to replace the log structure. As the membership continued to grow, multiple additions were built onto the original structure. By the 1880s, the parish had decided to replace the old brick church entirely with a yet larger building. The new and current church was built between 1888-1894 using 135,000 bricks and at a total cost of $43,354.19 paid from a building fund and special collections (Approx. $1.5 Million in 2022 dollars).</p><br>
<p>Today, St. John&#39;s remains an active parish of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. It is part of the Marion Catholic Community cluster, along with Precious Blood parish in Chickasaw, Nativity of the Blessed Virgin parish in Cassella, St. Rose parish in St. Rose, and St. Sebastian parish in Sebastian. The entire cluster is a part of the St. Marys Deanery.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The current St. Johns Church was completed in 1888 at a cost of $40,145. Its architecture, which has been ranked among the leading churches of Mercer County, features a massive tower that was designed to house four tower clocks. Large amounts of sandstone are used to trim the corners of the brick church, which can be entered through three doors at the base of the tower. The church is built on a stone foundation and is topped with a gabled roof of asphalt. Many rounded lancet windows of stained glass illuminate the interior; among the most prominent of its windows are those of the sacristy, which feature deep blue stained glass. The churchs heavily decorated interior includes elaborate altars and a reredos built in the Romanesque Revival style.</p><br>
<p>A renovation project in the 1960s removed many of the exterior decorative features, including tops of the side pilasters, trim on the rounded windows and tower, and border around the upper exterior nave. The church interior has not been renovated as extensively.</p><br>
<p>Architectural historians have divided the Precious Blood-related churches of western Ohio into four generations. St. John&#39;s is typical of the churches of the third generation, which are generally Gothic Revival structures with a single central tower. It was designed by German-born architect, Adolphus Druiding (1838-1899) of Chicago and built by Anton DeCurtins (1829-1895) of nearby, Carthagena.</p><br>
<h2>Related buildings</h2><br>
<p>Two different Catholic schools have been operated by the parish. Its high school building (now demolished), erected in 1930, was built on the opposite side of State Route 119 from the church; after some years as a high school, it was converted into an elementary school. An earlier school, established and closed on unknown dates, was formerly operated in association with St. Johns Church. In 1907, this schools 200 students were taught by the Sisters of the Precious Blood.</p><br>
<p>Located immediately to the east of the church is a rectory, built in 1906. Designed by the DeCurtins Brothers in a combination of architectural styles, its walls are built of brick, laid in a stretcher bond; the square structure rests on a stone foundation and is covered by a slate roof that is pierced by multiple dormer windows. In addition to its buildings, the parish maintains a cemetery adjacent to the church.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>In 1977, St. Johns Church and its associated rectory were recorded by the Ohio Historic Inventory, a historic preservation program of the Ohio State Historic Preservation Office. This architectural survey ranked both buildings in good condition with no threats to their historic integrity. Two years later, the church and rectory were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places because of their architectural significance. More than thirty other buildings in western Ohio related to the Society of the Precious Blood were listed on the National Register at the same time as part of a multiple property submission. These historic buildings, both churches and other church-related structures, are the namesake of the region of rural western Ohio known as the "Land of the Cross-Tipped Churches." St. Johns Church lies in the middle of this heavily Catholic area, just 1/2 mi away from its center at the Maria Stein Convent.</p><br>
<p>The United States Post Office in Astoria, Oregon, United States, is a historic building constructed in 1933. It is a two-story building on a raised basement. Its exterior dimensions are 79 x. Its 11-bay front facade is divided by flat fluted pilasters with Corinthian capitals supporting a full entablature, with a balustraded parapet above, and a red-tiled hipped roof rising behind that. Its foundations had to be blasted by dynamite.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 under its historic name USA Post Office and Custom House.</p><br>
<p>St. Joseph Catholic Church is a former Catholic parish in the Diocese of Davenport. Its former parish church is located in the west end of Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. The church and the rectory were listed together on the Davenport Register of Historic Properties in 1999. After serving as the location of a Reformed Baptist congregation and a private elementary school named Marquette Academy, the parish property now houses an evangelical Christian ministry named One Eighty.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>St. Joseph Parish</h3><br>
<p>St. Joseph Parish was originally established as St. Kunigundas in 1855 in the Diocese of Dubuque. It was named for St. Kunigunda, and served the German immigrants who settled in the western part of the city. Judge C.G.R. Mitchell donated the property for the church. A stone building was dedicated May 25, 1856 by the parishs pastor Father Flammang, who conducted the services in Latin and German. He was succeeded in 1857 by Rev. John Baumgarten who stayed for a year, and then the parish was without a pastor for six months. The Rt. Rev. Msgr. Anton Niermann became the pastor on April 2, 1859. Rev. Frank Kottenstette was named assistant pastor in 1900. He was followed by the Revs. Albers P. Stahl, P. Herbst, J. Snyder, and B. Kueppenbender. Msgr. Niermann was succeeded as pastor by the Rev. N.J. Peiffer in 1905.</p><br>
<p>As the parish continued to grow it was decided to build a new church. The cornerstone was laid in 1881, the same year as the Diocese of Davenport was established. It was at this time that the parish name was changed to St. Joseph, probably because if its proximity to St. Mary&#39;s Church which was built two blocks to the west in 1867. The new church was dedicated on September 16, 1883. The former church building was converted into a school. It is possible that this building was converted into the convent and continues to stand, radically modified, behind the church. St. Joseph School was served by the School Sisters of St. Francis from Milwaukee.</p><br>
<p>Significant changes occurred starting in the 1960s. The ethnic makeup of the neighborhood around St. Joseph changed. The original German immigrant community was gone and the people who replaced them were largely not Catholic. Changes were made in the liturgy to accommodate the reforms of the Second Vatican Council. The liturgies were now celebrated in English. The communion rail was removed and a new altar, which allowed the priest to face the congregation, was put in place. The old altars and statues, however, remained in the church. By the 1970s sizeable numbers of Mexican Americans began moving into the area, and a liturgy in Spanish was added. The Spanish speaking community stayed until the late 1980s when they moved to St. Mary&#39;s.</p><br>
<h3>Post-St. Joseph&#39;s</h3><br>
<p>The school continued until 1968 when it was merged with St. Marys School and renamed Holy Trinity. The merger lasted into the 1990s when St. Marys ended its participation. Because of declining numbers, the diocese decided to close the school in 1999. An independent group of people bought the school that year and it reopened as Holy Trinity Mission School. A few years later it was renamed Marquette Academy. The parish, which never had defined territorial boundaries because it was established as a German ethnic parish, continued to decline in numbers and it was also closed in 1999. The building became a part of Holy Trinity Mission School. In 2008 the church and rectory were purchased by a non-denominational congregation and it became Legacy Church. The church later became Grace Fellowship Church, a Reformed Baptist congregation. The One Eighty ministry acquired the entire St. Joseph Parish property in 2016 as their headquarters. The ministry serves people on the margins in a variety of programs.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Davenport architect Victor Huot designed St. Josephs in the High Victorian Gothic style. Huot had previously designed St. Marys Church.</p><br>
<p>The building is a Basilica-plan church with its main entrance at the base of the gable-end tower. It is constructed in brick on a stone foundation. The decorative brickwork, especially the corbel table at the eaves, is one of its most distinguished features. Its verticality is achieved by way of the exaggerated pendant corbelling and the tall, pointed-arch windows. The windows on the main facade, along the side walls and in the apse are all paired lancet windows that are filled with stained glass. There is also a tracery rose window in the tower. The tower itself features a tall, slender spire that rises above sharply-drawn gables on the bell-chamber.</p><br>
<p>Trinity Episcopal Church is a historic Episcopal congregation and church, designed by Toledo, Ohio architect Charles Crosby Miller and constructed ca. 1865 in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The congregation was organized in 1839 as Christ Church and the name changed in 1844 to Trinity Church. The first church was built on the southeast corner of Berry and Harrison Streets in 1848. It is an example of Gothic Revival architecture.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<p>HISTORY</p><br>
<p>The Rt. Rev. Jackson Kemper, Bishop of the Northwest, visited Fort Wayne for the first time in 1837 in an effort to organize a church. Two years later, he set the Rev. Benjamin Hutchins, formerly of Philadelphia, to organize a church, and Christ Episcopal Church was formally established on May 26, 1839. The congregation languished when Hutchins departed soon after, and in 1844, Peter P. Bailey, a businessman from New York City, began offering lay readings from the Book of Common Prayer. Bishop Kemper sent another missionary, the Rev. Benjamin Halsted, and on May 25, 1844, Trinity Episcopal Church was formally organized. After meeting initially in the Allen County Courthouse, the church raised funds for a wood framed chapel at the southeast corner of Berry and Harrison. (The present historical marker is inaccurate about its location).</p><br>
<p>In 1863, the vestry called the Rev. Joseph S. Large to lead an effort to build a new Gothic Revival Church under a design by Charles Crosby Miller of Toledo, Ohio. After many delays and financial shortfalls, the building was completed in the fall of 1866 and consecrated two years later by the Rt. Rev. Joseph C. Talbot, Bishop Coadjutor of Indiana.</p><br>

<p>Holy Family Catholic Church is a historic Roman Catholic church in Wayne Township, Darke County, Ohio, United States. Located in the unincorporated community of Frenchtown, it houses an active congregation, and it has been accorded historic site status because of its well-preserved Gothic Revival architecture.</p><br>
<h2>Parish history</h2><br>
<p>The first settlers of northeastern Darke County and southwestern Shelby County were predominantly French. The first parish in the region encompassed the areas now divided between St. Denis Parish in Versailles, St. Remy Parish in Russia, and Holy Family Parish. it was a mother church of the Missionaries of the Precious Blood, who were beginning to minister to the Catholic population of the region at this time. In 1846, St. Remy and Holy Family parishes were created as separate parishes, while St. Valbert relocated to Versailles and was rededicated to St. Denis in 1864.</p><br>
<p>Members of Holy Family Church quickly began to organize their congregation, completing a log church by the end of 1846; after it burned in 1848, another log church was built. As more French settlers continued to arrive in the 1850s and early 1860s, the church became too small, and the members decided to erect a larger brick structure.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The present Holy Family Church was completed in 1866 in the Gothic Revival style. Its gabled roof is topped with a bell tower; the walls are of brick painted white, and the building rests on a stone foundation without a basement. Most of the exterior remains little changed from its original format, although the entrance has been hidden by the addition of a small structure in 1964. The interior has been changed more substantially than the exterior; the original elaborate altars and statues have been removed, and the original baptistery and sacristy have been replaced by a new baptistery and sacristy in the 1964 addition. Still present is the interior lighting from the original lancet windows of stained glass, each inscribed with the name of the individuals who paid for the window.</p><br>
<p>Architectural historians have divided the Precious Blood-related churches of western Ohio into multiple generations. Only a few buildings remain from the first generation, which consisted primarily of small wooden churches, and only St. Johns Church in Fryburg remains essentially unchanged. Replacing these wooden buildings were the churches of the second generation, which were generally small brick buildings without tall spires. Holy Familys simple rectangular plan and small bell tower makes it a fine example of the churches of the second generation.</p><br>
<h2>Related properties</h2><br>
<p>Located on the southwestern corner of Frenchtown&#39;s primary intersection, that of Burns Road and State Route 185, the church is partially surrounded by other properties associated with the parish. Members of Holy Family Church first built a rectory for their pastor in 1850. It was replaced by a larger brick structure in the 1880s; it lies on the northern side of Burns Road, directly across from the church. A more recent parish hall is located on the southern side of the road to the west of the church. A church cemetery, small but heavily used, lies immediately to the south and east of the church. Founded before the establishment of the parish, the cemetery includes burials as old as 1842; it is officially known as the "Frenchtown Cemetery," although it has also been known as the "Holy Family Cemetery."</p><br>
<h2>Recent history</h2><br>
<p>A 1977 architectural survey ranked the churchs exterior in good condition; its interior was only noted as "modified." In 1979, Holy Family Catholic Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Thirty-two other properties, including twenty-five other churches, were listed on the National Register at the same time as part of a multiple property submission of properties in western Ohio related to the Missionaries of the Precious Blood. Among these thirty-two other buildings were St. Remys Church in Russia and two other churches in northeastern Darke County. The tall towers and Gothic Revival architecture of many of these churches has caused this region of western Ohio to be nicknamed the "Land of the Cross-Tipped Churches."</p><br>
<p>Today, Holy Family is an active parish of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati. It is clustered with Immaculate Conception Parish in Bradford, St. Denis Parish in Versailles, and St. Mary Parish in Greenville. The entire cluster is a part of the Sidney Deanery.</p><br>
<p>Big Duck Ranch, also known as the Maurer Duck Farm, is a historic ranch located in Flanders, Suffolk County, New York. It operated as a duck ranch and retail store that sold duck products from 1936 to 1984. The principal building on the site is the separately listed Big Duck.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008 as part of plans to build a heritage park, picnic area, museum and rest stop. The Big Duck Ranch hosts various events, such as historic car shows, and is open year-round.</p><br>
<p>The Admiral Apartments, originally the Wheeldon Apartments and also known as the Admiral Hotel Apartments, is a five-story brick Tudor Revival apartment building in downtown Portland, Oregon, United States, that was built in 1909. It has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1990.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by Emil Schacht and Son and built in 1909.</p><br>
<p>The apartments were upscale with two to five bedrooms, hardwood floors, and an electric dumbwaiter service. By 1913, the neighborhood was changing and the building was home to at least three "sporting girls" (prostitutes). In October 1929, a two-alarm fire on the first floor quickly spread up to the attic and roof. Half of the structure was completely undamaged, but the fire caused $10,000–$15,000 in damage. The damage did not spread to the neighboring Heathman Hotel.</p><br>
<p>In 1921, Alice W. Nelson started a trust with the Portland Trust & Savings Bank after her husband died, and one investment in the trust was a loan to the owners of the Admiral Apartments. During the Great Depression, income in Nelsons trust account declined due in part to the trustees (the bank) difficulty in collecting the mortgage payments from the owner of the apartments, which were also sold at a loss by the owners. Nelson sued the bank, claiming they mismanaged her trust account, but she lost the trial and on appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court.</p><br>
<p>By the 1970s, the building was a flophouse.</p><br>
<p>Starting in 2009, the apartments were completely renovated by Walsh Construction using a SERA Architects design. The remodeling was paid for by the Portland Development Commission and Oregon Housing and Community Services Department. Portland&#39;s REACH Community Development Corporation was listed as the owner.</p><br>
<p>The Taylor Memorial Library, also known as Taylor Library or Old Library, is a historic former library building at 5 Broad Street in Milford, Connecticut. Built in 1894, it is a Richardsonian Romanesque building designed by Joseph W. Northrop. It follows, but departs from, H. H. Richardson&#39;s design of the Crane Memorial Library in Massachusetts. It now houses the offices of the Milford Chamber of Commerce.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Taylor Library building stands at the eastern end of Milfords city center green, on the north side of Broad Street at River Street. It is a 1-1/2 story roughly rectangular masonry structure, built out of a combination of local fieldstone, red sandstone, and yellow brick. It was originally covered by a tile roof, but is now covered by tile-colored shingles. The main entrance is off-center on the south-facing main facade, set in a large half-round arch topped by three-part round-arch window and projecting roof gable. At the front right corner is a projecting rounded area, capped by a bell-shaped roof. The interior retains a number of period features, but others have been lost due to the buildings conversion to non-library use.</p><br>
<p>The library was designed by Bridgeport architect Joseph W. Northrop, and was completed in 1894. Northrop was an eclectic architect conversant in all of the popular styles of the time, and he clearly based this design on the landmark Crane Memorial Library of H. H. Richardson. Construction of the building was funded by Henry Augustus Taylor, a railroad executive who moved to Milford in 1890. The library is one of several buildings Taylor sponsored in memory of his mother Mary. It was used as a library until 1976, when the new Milford Public Library building opened. The building has since been adapted to house the local chambers of commerce.</p><br>
<p>The Maplewood School, also known as Grammar School No. 5, is a historic school building at 434 Maplewood Avenue in Bridgeport, Connecticut. It was built in 1893, and was designed by Longstaff & Hurd. It was built as part of a major program to improve the city&#39;s schools and provide for a rapidly growing population. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Maplewood School building is located in a residential area on Bridgeport&#39;s West Side, occupying part of a block between Linwood and Maplewood Avenues. It is a large two-story brick building, with a flat roof and modest Renaissance Revival styling. Second-story windows on its oldest portion have rounded tops, and the main entrance is set recessed within a rounded-arch opening. The original building had eight classrooms around a central hall, which was doubled with the first addition and doubled again with construction of the annex.</p><br>
<p>The city of Bridgeport grew rapidly between 1880 and 1920, and undertook a massive building program to replace its aging one and two-room schoolhouses with modern schools. Built in 1892, Maplewood School replaced a one-room schoolhouse, and exemplifies thinking of the period for educational facilities, including graded classrooms, indoor plumbing, and heating. The building was designed by Longstaff & Hurd, a local architectural firm. As a result of overcrowding, in 1903 architect Henry A. Howe, Jr. designed additions, which were built onto both fronts of the school. In 1908, the school was once again enlarged with an annex designed by Joseph W. Northrop. The school was closed in 1980.</p><br>
<p>Vol Walker Hall  is a building on the University of Arkansas campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas. It contains the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design. The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>
<h2>Eponym</h2><br>
<p>The University of Arkansas Board of Trustees changed the name to honor James Volney "Vol" Walker in the spring of 1934. An 1877 University of Arkansas alumnus, respected lawyer, and member of the Arkansas legislature, Walker was instrumental in keeping the University in Fayetteville despite efforts to move it.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Vol Walker Hall was born when University President John C. Futrall decided to utilize Public Works Administration funds available to the University of Arkansas to build a new library. Planning for the new library (and also a new science building) began in March 1931. A similar library at the University of Rochester was used as a blueprint, and eventually Futrall brought in the original designers of the Rochester library, Gordon and Kaehler.</p><br>
<p>The hall contained the University library from 1935 until 1968, when it was supplanted by Mullins Library. It was at this time that the name was changed to Vol Walker Hall.</p><br>
<h2>Expansion</h2><br>
<p>A two-year renovation and expansion of Vol Walker Hall was completed in 2013, culminating in the new Steven L. Anderson Design Center being attached to the historic structure. The design center added 37,000 ft&sup2; of studio, faculty, and classroom space and allows the Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design to be entirely housed under one roof for the first time. Designed by the School of Architectures Distinguished Professor Marlon Blackwell, the expansion has received several awards in the architecture community, including a 2018 American Institute of Architects Honor Award for Architecture, a 2014 American Institute of Architects (AIA) Gulf States Honor Award and Architects Newspapers Building of the Year.</p><br>

<p>The Atwater–Ciampolini House, also known as the Charles Atwater House, is located at 321 Whitney Avenue in New Haven, Connecticut, at the southwest corner of intersection with Edwards Street. It is an important example of Shingle style architecture. It was designed by New York City-based architects Babb, Cook and Willard and was built during 1890-92. For many years the property had served as offices for Thompson and Peck, an insurance agency.</p><br>
<p>The house was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey with photographs taken in 1964, 1967, and 1970, and it is a contributing property in the Whitney Avenue Historic District that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.

<p>Woolsey Bridge  was a truss bridge built in 1925, formerly located near West Fork, Arkansas. It carried County Route 35 over the West Fork of the White River for 303 ft. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The bridge is historic as the only surviving bridge in the area built in the camelback style. Engineered in a distinct way, the camelback truss is uncommon and this well-preserved example was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 9, 2000.</p><br>
<h2>Design</h2><br>
<p>Bridge designers and engineers of the early 20th century had seen the Pratt truss prove itself as a durable and economically feasible bridge. The Woolsey Bridge was designed as a camelback through truss design. The camelback is a modification of the Pratt truss by Charles H. Parker that features a top chord that is not parallel to the bottom chord. Although stronger in the center than parallel bridges, the style is less common due to its complexity. The Woolsey Bridge was likely built by a county workforce in 1925, possibly consisting of area residents.</p><br>
<h2>Status</h2><br>
<p>The bridge was closed to traffic in January, 2015 and a replacement bridge opened in 2018. The old bridge was disassembled and given to the town of West Fork with the intention it would be repurposed into a pedestrian bridge.</p><br>

<p>The Charles G. Curtiss Sr. House is a private home at 168 S. Union St. in Plymouth, Michigan in the United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1994.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This house was built c. 1890 for Charles G. Curtiss Sr., a builder from Plymouth. Curtiss was born in Connecticut in 1823; he eventually moved to Plymouth and was involved in moving and building houses. It is likely, although not certain, that Curtiss designed and built this house. Curtiss died only a few years later in 1893, and his wife Caroline continued to live in the house until 1901. The mix of architectural features in the house is unique in Plymouth.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Charles G. Curtiss Sr. House is a two-story wood-framed house sitting on a fieldstone foundation. It is built in a cross-gabled ell shape, with a three-story square tower within the ell. A shed-roof verandah is attached to the front of the house and a single-story hipped-roof addition is in the rear. The exterior of the house is sheathed in clapboard, patterned shingling, and, beneath the veranda, wood panels.</p><br>
<p>The house is distinctive because of its decorative elements, including the shingling, turned posts on the verandah, and stickwork under the gables. The form of the house (a gabled ell with tower) had been popular regionally and nationally since the 1850s, but by the time this house was built, c. 1890, was much out of fashion.</p><br>
<p>The Harlan Log House, also known as "The Log House," was built about 1715 by Joshua Harlan, is a well-preserved example of an English-style log cabin near Kennett Square, in Kennett Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is about a half mile west of the hamlet of Fairville. Joshua Harlan was the son of George Harlan, who arrived in Pennsylvania in 1687. Joshua was born in 1696 and was the cousin of the George Harlan, who built the Harlan House, about 12 miles north about 1724. Both houses are listed in the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The core of the house was built about 1715 as a two-story square (26 feet by 26 feet) cabin. Although English settlers modelled their log cabins on the examples of Swedish settlers, the English versions were square rather than rectangular. An 1815 stone addition measures 19 feet by 15 feet, with a modern addition attached to the stone addition.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>

<p>The Bovill Opera House in Bovill, Latah County, Idaho, is a theatre believed to have been built in the first decade of the 20th century. It is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>According to the National Park Service:</p><br>
<p>Believed to have been built in the first decade of the 20th century, the Bovill Opera House served for five decades as the entertainment and social center for the town of Bovill and its surrounding communities. Although used primarily as a "moving picture hall", the Bovill Opera House hosted dances, performances, as well as public hearings and gatherings. In the 1930s the upstairs was transformed into a miniature golf course and later used as a roller skating-rink. While there is a metal sign reading "Bovill Historical Museum" it was apparently never used as a museum on a consistent basis.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the USA National Register of Historic Places on January 27, 2010.</p><br>
<p>The Old New York Evening Post Building is the former office and printing plant of the New York Evening Post newspaper located at 20 Vesey Street between Church Street and Broadway in the Financial District of Manhattan, New York City. It was built in 1906-07 and was designed by architect Robert D. Kohn for Oswald Garrison Villard, who owned the Post at the time, and is considered to be "one of the few outstanding Art Nouveau buildings" ever constructed in the United States.</p><br>
<p>The fourteen-story, stone-veneer building is "reminiscent of the buildings that line the boulevards of Paris", and was not copied from an existing building. It features three tall bays of cast-iron framed bow windows, separated by pale limestone piers. There is an elaborate copper-covered mansard roof, two stories high and four elaborate sculpted figures. The statues depict the Four Periods of Publicity; two are by Gutzon Borglum, sculptor of Mount Rushmore, and two by the architect&#39;s wife, Estelle Rumbold Kohn.</p><br>
<p>The New York Evening Post occupied the building until moving to the New York Evening Post Building in 1926.</p><br>
<p>The building, which was later called the Garrison Building, was designated a New York City landmark in 1965, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. The New York Landmarks Preservation Commission was headquartered in the building from 1980 to 1987.</p><br>

It is on the south side of the road, a short way west of its junction with Commonwealth Avenue. It is a -story brick building, with a gabled roof, interior end chimneys, and a stone foundation. It is five bays wide, with a late 19th-century porch extending across three bays and around to the left side. Windows have splayed stone lintels, and the roof cornice is modillioned. The main entrance is at the center of the front facade, topped by a semicircular fanlight. The porch has Queen Anne style turned posts, decorative brackets, and latticework skirting. The interior retains many original period features, including woodwork and plaster walls.</p><br>
<p>The Butler&#39;s Corner area was purchased in 1822 by Roswell Butler, who soon thereafter built this house and a store. His brother also built a house here, giving the area its name. It was until 1830 a center of civic activity, until it was supplanted by Essex Center, where the town hall, school, and churches were built. Butler was involved in a variety of businesses, lumber being the primary good, which was shipped to communities on the Hudson River via the Champlain Canal. He also established a hemp mill at Essex Junction, which was destroyed by a spring freshet in 1830.</p><br>
