<p>City Market is a historic building located in downtown Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The idea behind the City Market was to bring the city&#39;s merchants and their goods together in a single location. However, the merchants had to vacate their individual stores in order to occupy a stall in the City Market. To that end the city hired Thomas W. McClelland to build the public market on Fifth Street in 1872. The facility was damaged in a fire in 1873, and some of the walls still show burn marks.</p><br>
<p>The market idea, however, did not last long because there was little interest from merchants. The west end of the building, whose address is 130 West Fifth Street, became the police station in 1877. At any rate, the east section no longer exists. Starting in 1925 the police department and the citys ambulance service started sharing the building starting in 1925. Bridewell House of Detention and Patrol Station No. 1 remained until about 1940 and the ambulance service left sometime in the 1940s. The citys Parking Division was also headquartered here.</p><br>
<p>The building was vacant for a number of years. In 2008, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Mississippi Valley moved into the building. They raised $650,000 to renovate the building and teamed with the Tri-City Building Trades Council who used the renovation as an educational project.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The City Market is a single-story, brick building constructed on a stone foundation. The structure is rectangular in shape and is topped by a gable roof, which faces Main Street. It contains a mixture of Romanesque Revival and Greek Revival elements. The Romanesque may be found in the rounded arches and decorative brickwork on the façade fronting Main Street. It also features brick pilasters and a stepped frieze that organizes the facade into three bays.</p><br>
<p>The north and south elevations are more functional and less decorative. Both elevations contain windows, garage doors, and a pedestrian entrance. Window openings feature segmentally arched headers, stone sills, and double-hung windows with 6/6 light configurations. The pedestrian entrances are similar in form, while the garage doors have flat span lintels, with glass transoms above the door. As mentioned above, the eastern end of the original building has been removed. The corbiestep parapet wall of the roofline and ghost marks indicate the existence of the former space.</p><br>

<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The New Hampton Town House stands in what is now a relatively rural context, on the north side of Town House Road at its junction with Dana Hill Road. It is a vernacular single-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. It is covered by a side gable roof, with brick chimneys at either end. The main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance sheltered by a gabled portico supported by square posts. The entry is flanked by paired Greek Revival pilasters, with simpler pilasters found at the building corners. A series of small ells extend to the rear of the main block. The interior of the main block is principally occupied by a large chamber, with the additions providing space for a stage, kitchen, and other facilities. The stage curtain has been painted with a depiction of the building.</p><br>
<p>New Hampton was incorporated in 1777, and its early town meetings were apparently held in local homes or barns. The town voted in 1798 to appropriate funds for the construction of a meeting house, which was also to be funded by the sale of pews. By 1799 the building was sufficiently complete to house town meetings. As built, it was a typical late-18th century meeting house, with a second story gallery space and outside stairs.</p><br>
<p>The building was used for religious services by a declining Congregationalist group that finally disbanded in 1842. There is some evidence that a Baptist congregation also used the building for a time, but there was repeated discussion within the town over the need to update the building beginning in the 1840s. These discussions were finally acted upon in 1872, when the gallery level was removed along with the outside stairs, and the roof was lowered to its present height. The building was electrified in the 1930s, and the stage and kitchen were added in 1940.</p><br>

<h2>Architecture and history</h2><br>
<p>The Gordon-Nash Library is located in the village center of New Hampton, on the south side of Main Street opposite the New Hampton School. The building consists of the original 1895 building, to which several additions have been made to the rear. The original building is a single-story masonry structure, built out of gold-colored bricks and covered by a hip roof. It has a three-part front facade, whose defining element is a central projecting hip-roof section. It has a central arched entrance, with a brownstone surround including pilasters and an entablature above the keystoned arch. The outer left section has three sash windows sharing a brownstone lintel, which are separated from transom-like windows by a similar header. The outer right section only has square windows in the transom positions.</p><br>
<p>The library was established on paper in 1887 by Stephen Gordon Nash, whose childhood home had been home for a time to a private subscription library founded in 1818. Nash died in 1894, having purchased land for the library building, but made no further steps toward creating the institution. In his will, he dedicated $10,000 for the construction of a building, and left the residue of his estate as an endowment for its maintenance. The building was erected in 1895 to a design by James E. Fuller of Fuller & Delano, architects based in Worcester, Massachusetts. It was the first purpose-built library building in Belknap County.</p><br>

<p>Allen Island or Allens Island is a 450 acre private island which is part of St. George, Knox County, Maine, United States. it is located near the southeastern end of Muscongus Bay, roughly midway between the southernmost parts of the St. Georges mainland, and Monhegan Island.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The island is the largest of a small cluster of islands marking the southeastern extent of Muscongus Bay. To its northwest is Benner Island, from which it is separated by a relatively narrow channel, and to the east, across a wider channel, is Burnt Island (not to be confused with Burnt Island in Boothbay Harbor, where Burnt Island Light is located). The geographic features match those described in James Rosier&#39;s account of the 1605 exploratory expedition of George Waymouth, in which landing and exploration of an island is made.</p><br>
<p>In 1979, the island was purchased by Betsy Wyeth, wife of painter Andrew Wyeth. The island had lost its full-time residents when it was purchased by Wyeth and had become "a seasonal home for two fishing families living in decaying houses on the fringe of the fast-encroaching spruce forest".</p><br>
<p>Betsy Wyeth died in 2020 and the island (and its neighbor Benner Island) were acquired by Colby College in 2022 as "an interdisciplinary study center."</p><br>
<h2>Archaeological site</h2><br>

<p>The Odd Fellows Hall is one of the oldest non-residential buildings in the city of Hilliard, Ohio, United States. Located in the center of the city, it was constructed long before Hilliard&#39;s rapid growth of the twentieth-century. It has been named a historic site.</p><br>
<p>Hilliard&#39;s Odd Fellows built the present hall in 1883. At the time, Hilliard was just a small farming community, radically different from its present condition as a city within the Columbus metropolitan area. Typical of small commercial structures erected at the time, the hall is a simple Italianate building. It is one of just two nineteenth-century brick commercial buildings in the city that survive in anything close to their original condition.</p><br>
<p>Built of brick on a foundation of limestone, the hall is covered with a metal roof, and it features exterior elements of brick and wood. Two stories tall, it features a cornice with paired brackets at the base of the roof. The design takes advantage of the buildings location at a street corner: although the first-story windows and entrances are concentrated on one side, both street sides are divided into four bays with four tall arched windows on the second story. Inside, the first story is divided into a pair of shop spaces, while the Odd Fellows second-story meeting room has experienced minimal modification. Still remaining are the original hoodmolds over the doors and windows, wainscoting, wooden floor, lights, and ornamental metalwork covering the ceiling.</p><br>
<p>On May 6, 1988, the Odd Fellows Hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture. On the same day, the National Park Service gave the same designation to three other Hilliard buildings, the Hilliard United Methodist Church, the Dr. James Merryman House, and the Winterringer Building and House.</p><br>

<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Cummings Shoe Factory is located at the northern corner of Railroad Avenue and Norton Street, just north of the village center of South Berwick. The area it is set in is predominantly residential. It is an imposing five-story brick structure, now roughly U-shaped. Its oldest portion is an L-shaped structure facing the corner, with a square tower rising an additional story from the crook of the L. A large addition to the west made it into a rough U shape, and this was further extended to the north in the 1930s.</p><br>
<p>The factory was established in 1871, and became an economic mainstay of the community for more than 120 years, closing its doors in 1993. It was an exception to the typical model for shoe factories in Maine, which were often built by public subscription and leased out to out-of-state firms. This factory was founded by David Cummings of Worcester, Massachusetts, partly in response to increasing labor organization in Massachusetts. In addition to the main factory building, the complex included a large number of ancillary buildings for related operations such as tanning; all of these have since been demolished. The Cummingses, a family operation, ran the factory until 1929, after which it was operated for a time on the more common leasing model. Its last industrial owner was foreclosed in 1993, and the town acquired the property in 1995. It now contains 48 housing units.</p><br>

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Holmes house is located on the west side of Main Street at the northern end of Alfred Village. It is a two-story wood-frame structure with a hip roof and clapboard siding. The roof was originally encircled by a balustrade that included a bow and arrow motif, but that has since been removed. The house has a number of features that are unusual for the location and period, including a two-story wraparound porch, supported by a colonnade of slender columns. The five-bay front facade faces east, and is symmetrically arranged, with the main entrance centered in an enclosed vestibule, above which is a balcony accessed by a doorway on the second floor. The first floor interior features high-quality Federal period woodwork. The house originally had an enclosed court. The kitchen, which held a fireplace with ovens and a copper vat for water, has been removed. An L-shaped addition has been added to the northwest section of the house.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1802 for Senator John Holmes, one of western Maines leading politicians and a major proponent of statehood for what was then the District of Maine in Massachusetts. The bow-and-arrow balustrade, now removed, is said to have been a nod to Holmes Native American ancestry on his mothers side. The railing was said to have been made by the Griffins, who had a blacksmithing shop nearby. The house remained in the Holmes family until 1849, when it was purchased by the Sayward family. The Sayward family owned the house until the early 1900s. The Marshall family inhabited the house after the Saywards. Dr. Sumner Marshall and his wife Elizabeth York Marshall, who was a nurse, raised three children here. They hosted re-enactments of Senator Holmes return at the house that were attended by thousands of locals. It now serves as both a home and a dance studio.</p><br>

It has three elaborately decorated chimneys, an iron-crested slate roof with balustraded widow&#39;s walk, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. The main entrance is located near the center of the east-facing front facade, sheltered by a porch that extends to the southern corner on the first floor, and is topped by a smaller porch on the second floor. Both porches are supported by groups of turned columns, with latticework valances and turned balustrades. To the right of the entrance a window bay, squared on the first floor and polygonal on the second, projects slightly.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1894 by Mary R. Hurd, at the time of her second marriage, to David Hurd. Born in 1839 to William Hill, she inherited the North Berwick Woolen Mill upon his death in 1873, and ran the business until her own death in 1933 at age 94. She was a major philanthropic force in the town, funding construction of a fire station and purchase of a fire truck, and funding the construction and endowment of the D. A. Hurd Library. She also notably kept the mills running in the early years of the Great Depression, despite the poor business conditions. The property is now operated as The Lady Mary Inn at Hurd Manor.</p><br>

<h2>Architecture and history</h2><br>
<p>The Fogg Library is set at the northwest corner of Old and State Roads (Old Road being designated Maine State Route 103), near the northern end of Eliots linear village center. It is a -story structure fashioned out of fieldstone, with a flared hip roof, set on a low hill on a triangular lot. Its distinctive exterior and elevated position adjacent to the main road make it a prominent local landmark. Its main facade is three bays wide, with a center entrance portico supported by four Ionic columns, with an entablature and fully pedimented gable above. The roof has three gabled dormers, and there are granite string courses above the foundation and below the windows. The interior has a central hall, with a reading room on one side and childrens room on the other, and stacks located in an ell to the rear. The interior is relatively little altered since its construction.</p><br>
<p>The first library established in the town Eliot was a private lending library established by William Fogg and housed at his home on Old Road. Foggs son, Dr. John H. S. Fogg, a Harvard-educated doctor, continued his fathers interest in education, amassing a collection of books. Upon his death he gave most of his book collection to the town, and bequested $10,000 to the town for construction of a library on land he donated. The new library was built in 1907, to a design by Boston architect C. Howard Walker, and supposedly used stone materials gathered from the walls lining the Fogg property. Fogg also established a trust fund for maintenance of the building.</p><br>
