<p>The Gully Homestead is a former homestead located at 200 S. Chambers Road in Aurora, Colorado.</p><br>
<p>Thomas Gully, his wife Temperance, and their four children came to Colorado in 1862. Thomas, an Irish immigrant, moved to the Colorado Territory to work in the mines, but decided to try his hand at farming shortly after.</p><br>
<p>The Gullys claimed 11,000 acres near the Toll Gate Creek and built a small log home.</p><br>
<p>It operated as a ranch by his descendants until the 1950s. The home also served as a community center and a polling place.</p><br>
<p>The farm house, believed to be the oldest home in Aurora, consists of two parts; the kitchen (ca. 1866), and the main house, believed to be built in 1870. The two sections are connected.</p><br>
<p>The home sat vacant from the early 1950s until 1978. It was determined to be sitting in a floodplain. The developer who owned the house donated it to the city with the stipulation the house would be moved.</p><br>
<p>It was relocated to its current site, in the DeLaney Farm Historic District, along with a chicken coop in 1982, and restored the home in 1983. The City of Aurora established the area as a park.</p><br>
<p>The house came into ownership by the city of Aurora in 1978. The City restored the home and it is open for tours and school trips.</p><br>
<p>Several structures stand on the property, including the 1902 Round Barn, a 1949 shed, a privy and the Delaney house, ca. 1890. The Coal Creek School House (1920) sits on the edge of the site.</p><br>
<p>The Delaney Barn is the barn of a former homestead located at 170 S. Chambers Road in Aurora, Colorado. It seems to be the only historic round barn surviving in Colorado today. Horses, dairy cattle and other livestock were raised on this farm. It serves as an important piece of early twentieth century architecture. Now part of the 160 acre DeLaney Historic District with restored farm buildings.</p><br>
<p>It was built c.1900.</p><br>
<p>The William Smith House is a home located at 412 Oswego Ct. in Aurora, Colorado. William Smith arrived in Aurora, Colorado in 1882. The house was built in 1910. William Smith was the founder of the Aurora Public school system. He once raised sheep on the property and former owner of land donated for Del Mar Park. He served on the school board for over 50 years and Aurora&#39;s first high school was named after him. The house remained in the family until 1983 when his daughter Margaret died. The house remains as a private residence.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<p>It has some features of American Foursquare styling in that the body of the house is square in plan, and two stories tall, and has a hipped roof, although it does not have the dormers through its roof that is usually part of the pure style. A second contributing building on the property is a one-car brick garage, built in about 1915 after the house owner purchased a car.</p><br>
<p>William Smith was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1860.</p><br>

<p>The Seventeen Mile House is a historic site and open space located at 8181 S. Parker Rd. in Centennial, Colorado. It is a 33-acre former stagecoach stop with a square log structure covered with clapboard. It was a stopping place during the 1800s along the Smoky Hill Trail. It is one of the last two remaining trail houses left on the trail. Mary Hightower was the original owner of the house, having moved there in 1866. It was almost torn down in 1977 until negative publicity stopped it from happening. The site was zoned for commercial development until the County of Arapahoe acquired the land in 2001.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first Colorado Gold Rush in 1858-1859 began an influx of horse and wagon traffic to Denver, and two of the routes were the historic Smoky Hill Trail from Kansas and Cherokee Trail from Oklahoma. Six way stations sprang up along Cherry Creek, serving travelers in the final stretch into Denver after the two trails merged.</p><br>
<p>Railroad service reached Denver in 1870, and the wagon trails gradually fell into disuse. Seventeen Mile House closed and became a working farm alongside the Cherry Creek River by the 1880s. It is one of two surviving Way Stations. The stations were named according to how many miles each site is from downtown Denver&#39;s intersection of Colfax and Broadway. Four Mile House is the other way station still standing.</p><br>
<h2>Current Site and Future Plans</h2><br>
<p>In 2001, local historic and preservation groups worked together to acquire the property for Arapahoe County. Arapahoe County has a 2007 Master Plan for Seventeen Mile House serving as vision and roadmap.</p><br>
<p>Today the site is an Open Space park administered by Arapahoe County, Colorado, with the Cherry Creek Valley Historical Society giving monthly open house tours, and involved in preservation and development. An annual Fall Festival has been held in recent years.</p><br>
<p>This Open Space borders two other Open Spaces, thus contributing to a regional corridor for wildlife areas and biking/hiking trails along the Cherry Creek Valley, which includes Denver&#39;s extensive Cherry Creek Reservoir State Park.</p><br>
<p>The Arctic Point Fire Lookout is a 72 ft tall fire tower located near Big Creek, Idaho. It was listed on the USA National Register of Historic Places  in 1994.

The cabin was added as a residence for the lookouts in 1939. It remained in use for its intended purpose until 1997, when it was decommissioned.</p><br>
<p>The Timothy J. McCarthy Building  located at 24 3rd Street NW in Faribault, Minnesota.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The building was built in 1884 in the Italianate style. Owner T. J. McCarthy had immigrated from Ireland to Faribault, where he attended Shattuck School. McCarthy was the part-owner of a brickyard, and he later purchased the Faribault Marble Works with partner J. H. Nightengale.

<p>The Thomas and Bridget Shanahan McMahon House, located at 603 Division St., E., in Faribault, Minnesota was built in 1870–1871, and was listed for its Faribault stone architecture on the National Register of Historic Places on July 19, 1990. It was built by Thomas McMahon, a local quarry owner.</p><br>
<p>Thomas McMahon married Bridget Shanahan in 1849, while they lived in Iowa. The McMahons had 12 children. Three died in infancy. They moved to Faribault in 1856, where Thomas became a quarry owner. He spent $1200 on their house in 1870, and $1000 more finishing it in 1871. The house has a great room and kitchen on floor one and two bedrooms and a bath on floor two. The house originally did not have dormers or an external chimney. It had two internal fireplaces at each east west side. The small porch by the back door is also not original. It originally had a magnificent wooden, hand painted porch on the front. Sometime after 1940, that was lost. Current owners are making an effort to replicate the porch and put it back on.</p><br>
<p>The Elliott R. Corbett House is a historic home built in the Colonial Revival style in 1915, and located in the Dunthorpe neighborhood south of Portland, Oregon, United States. This house, along with its nearly-identical sister project , are the finest examples of the residential work of Whitehouse and Fouilhoux, one of Portlands leading architecture firms in the second decade of the 20th century. It also represents the early stages of the development of Dunthorpe as a country-style suburb for Portland&#39;s elite. Elliott R. Corbett was a scion of the prominent Corbett family, which made its fortune in banking and inland shipping.</p><br>
<p>The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The William Gedamke House is a historic residence in Gresham, Oregon, United States. Prominently located near Gresham&#39;s original business core, it is one of the finest expressions of the Queen Anne style in the city. It was constructed circa 1900, about the time the first interurban trains reached Gresham from Portland. The design was based on a widely circulated 1891 mail-order plan book by George F. Barber.</p><br>
<p>The house was adapted for commercial use starting in 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Andreas Graf House is a historic residence in Corbett, Oregon, United States. It stands out as one of the very few Queen Anne style structures in its rural community. German immigrant Andreas Graf arrived in Oregon and staked his homestead claim in 1883, building his house in around 1885 using lumber he milled himself on the homestead. Originally designed in the Carpenter Gothic style, the house was expanded and transformed into the more fashionable Queen Anne style around 1891. Also in 1891, Graf received one of the areas earliest federal land patents for his homestead. Graf worked as a farmer and machinist, and as a homebuilder in Portland and Corbett. He also operated a threshing business and established one of Corbetts earliest schools on his land. He died in 1903.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The house remained in the Graf (later "Graff") family at least until 2014.</p><br>
<p>The Charles and Fae Olson House is a historic house in Gresham, Oregon, United States. Designed and hand-built by the novice owner-occupant as his version of the "dream house" that sustained many men and women overseas during World War II, its modern styling embodies the breaks with tradition embraced by the generation returning from the war. The main outlines of the plan were developed during mail correspondence between Charles Olson and his wife Fae while he was serving in the Pacific, and many features are patterned on the books and magazines available to him. The Olsons&#39; willingness to devote their own labor to its construction allowed them to avoid the constraints of commercial and government financing, which favored standardized suburban tract construction during the immediate postwar period, and to flexibly adapt to the material shortages of the time.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The View Point Inn, located in Corbett, Oregon, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>In 2008, the inn was used in filming of prom scenes in the first film of the Twilight Saga film series. The exposure generated by the film was credited with giving the hotel and its restaurant a boost in business.</p><br>
<p>In July 2011, the building&#39;s second floor was gutted by a fire, and its owners, Geoff Thompson and Angelo Simione, faced financial difficulties, as the insurance on the building had lapsed. In October 2013, plans were made to rebuild and reopen the historic structure, with work slated to begin the winter of 2013–2014. Restore Oregon listed the inn on its 2012 list of Endangered Places; in December 2014 it reported that restoration was unlikely.</p><br>
<p>In 2016, Heiner and Sheron Fruehauf purchased the Inn and began restoration. According to the owners, they anticipate reopening the Inn as a holistic health retreat in 2024.</p><br>
<p>The Whidden–Kerr House and Garden, also known as High Hatch Estate, is a historic property located in the unincorporated communities of Riverwood and Dunthorpe in Multnomah County, Oregon, south of Portland and north of Lake Oswego, Oregon. William M. Whidden of Whidden & Lewis designed the house in 1901, to be his own residence, and it was built the same year. Whidden and his family lived in the house until 1911, when he sold it to businessman Thomas Kerr, Sr. . It later passed to Kerr&#39;s son, Thomas Kerr, Jr., and ultimately remained with the Kerr family until 1987.</p><br>
<p>The house is the "best expression" of Prairie School architecture by Whidden & Lewis, one of Portland&#39;s most prominent architectural firms of the period. A separate carriage house, now in use as a garage, is included as a contributing feature in the historic designation. The property includes a formal garden, which was "further developed by Kerr and his wife, the former Mabel Macleay", after Kerr acquired the estate in 1911. The site overlooks the Willamette River.</p><br>
<p>The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>

<h2>Significance in Rustic Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The Newton County American Legion Post No. 89 Hut is a prime example of Rustic style architecture in Mississippi. The building&#39;s use of log construction, exposed rafters, and natural materials is characteristic of the Rustic style, which emphasizes harmony with the natural environment. This style was popularized in park lodges and recreational facilities in the United States during the early 20th century. The hut maintains an organic relationship with its hilltop setting and remains largely unchanged since its construction in 1934.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>Despite some alterations, such as the addition of vertical cladding and replacement of the lower portions of the log columns with brick pedestals, the hut retains its original character and architectural integrity. These changes do not detract from the building&#39;s historic value, and it remains a well-preserved example of Rustic architecture in the state.</p><br>

This one was the only one located with the American Legion Forest; the other three, which have not survived, were located in Peoples State Forest, located across the West Branch Farmington River to the east. It is similar in form to the Cream Hill Shelter and Red Mountain Shelter, two other surviving shelters built by other CCC crews on what was then the route of the Appalachian Trail.</p><br>
<p>The Southern Union Gas Company Building is a historic building in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico, which is notable as one of the earliest International style buildings in the city. Built in 1951, it was the largest of several Southern Union offices around the state designed by southwestern architect John Gaw Meem. Meem was much better known for working in the Pueblo Revival style but did design a handful of other modernist buildings, such as the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center.</p><br>
<p>Meem completed the design for the Southern Union building in 1949, intending to "project the image of a progressive, public-spirited company". The building has two stories, with the former appliance showroom on the ground floor and a multipurpose "hospitality room" upstairs. The main showroom space is 17 ft high, with a sweeping staircase to the upper level and expansive plate-glass windows on the south and west sides.</p><br>
<p>The Southern Union Building was added to the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties in 2003 and the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.

The Flying Star location closed in October 2015 as part of the chain&#39;s bankruptcy proceedings. Just two months later, it was announced that the building would house the Albuquerque offices of Rural Sourcing, Inc., an Atlanta-based tech company. The building was renovated a second time in order to convert the restaurant space to offices, costing over $1 million.</p><br>
<p>The Metuchen Municipal Building, located at 500 Main Street, is the town hall for the borough of Metuchen in Middlesex County, New Jersey. The two-story concrete building, with brick facade, was built in 2003 and dedicated on September 1, 2005.</p><br>
<h2>Historic building</h2><br>
<p>The building replaced an earlier structure, the Metuchen Borough Hall, that had been built during the City Beautiful movement in 1924. It was demolished soon after its listing on the New Jersey Register of Historic Places and National Register of Historic Places in 2001. It had been listed due to its significance in architecture and politics/government.</p><br>
<p>The listing of the original Borough Hall as a historic site was controversial as it was unilaterally submitted by a small community activist group called the "Fairweather Friends" As a result of this listing, lawmakers made changes so that any public building could not be listed on a historic places list unless the governing body of that public building agrees to such a listing. The intent of this legal change was to insure that the entire public and not just one particular group seeking a historic designation is represented when these decisions are made on public buildings.</p><br>
<p>It was designed by Metuchen architect Clement W. Fairweather and included space for borough offices, a library, and a police station. The two-story building was built of brick using Flemish bond and featured Classical Revival architecture with columns, pilasters, and a decorative stone cartouche with a Classical shield.</p><br>

The exterior includes porches and a shed-roofed dormer.</p><br>
<p>The Walker Naylor Historic District, also referred to as Walkers and Naylors Additions Historic District, located in Forest Grove, Oregon, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places . The district is bounded by Gayles Way on the west, Covey Run Drive on the north, A Street on the east, and 21st Avenue on the south, which is west of Pacific University and north of the city&#39;s downtown area. The district has 145 properties covering 32 acre, and includes three houses listed on the National Register.</p><br>
<h2>Background</h2><br>
<p>Part of the area that became the neighborhood was settled in 1844 by Thomas G. and Sarah Naylor, while the other portion was claimed by Elkanah Walker in 1849. In 1858, the first house in the district was built. Forest Grove was incorporated in 1872, and the next year it was platted, listing the Walker and Naylor additions. The neighborhood continued to grow with landowners building a house, and then subdividing the property to sell of lots. After slow growth, the number of houses increased greatly in the first two decades of the 1900s, before slowing in the 1920s and 1930s. As of 1912 there were 68 homes in the district, which grew to 145 by 1959. Walker Naylor then experienced a housing boom following World War II.</p><br>
<h2>Details</h2><br>
<p>The area was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 3, 2011.

The estate has eight buildings, including the main home and a farmhouse built in 1880.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Ralph and Belle Jenkins purchased the property for $7,000 in 1912 for what was intended to be their summer home. Belle was the daughter of John C. Ainsworth, a founder of the Oregon Steam Navigation Company, while Ralph had been a teacher. The Jenkins began construction on a large estate that year as an escape from the city. The English hunting lodge-style main home took three years to complete, and was in addition to the original farmhouse on the property. Other facilities on the estate included fine equestrian facilities, as well as gardens, a greenhouse, an ornamental pool, a tea house, a carriage house, and a water tower.</p><br>
<p>Ralph Jenkins died in the 1950s; Belle died in 1963. In 1978, the estate was added to the National Register of Historic Places as the Belle Ainsworth Jenkins Estate.</p><br>

It is adjacent to the Clark Historic District.</p><br>
<p>North Star House  is a house located roughly a mile south of Grass Valley, Nevada County, northern California. The building served as the superintendent&#39;s house for the North Star Mine. Commissioned by Superintendent Arthur De Wint Foote and his wife, Mary Hallock Foote , an author and illustrator, it was designed in 1905 by the architect Julia Morgan. This was her first significant, large-scale, residential project. The house is notable for its relationship to the literary career of Molly Foote and the master architect, Morgan.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The house is located at 12075 Old Auburn Road, near the Nevada County Fairgrounds. Situated on a 14 acres site, the property is on a hillside that overlooks foothills and a valley. To the south is Quail Valley Golf Club.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The North Star Mine was the second largest producer of gold during the California Gold Rush. When Foote and his wife decided they needed a home to entertain the investors, dignitaries and celebrities that were coming to the Gold Country, they hired Morgan to design it. Built in 1905, it was one of her first projects. While living in the house Mary Foote wrote her lifetime reminiscences which form her published memoirs, A Victorian Gentlewoman in the Far West. From the time of construction to 1968, the residence was occupied by the Foote family.</p><br>
<p>In 1968, the property was purchased and served as a private religious school for boarding students during the 1970s, and as a school for troubled youths from 1970 through the early 1980s. It attracted youths as far away as Michigan after it became known as a non traditional Christian church. It was operated by a renegade Baptist preacher called Rev. Bill. By the late 70s rumors were circulating about unorthodox dealings with the youths at the school. The school eventually closed. Rev Bill was never heard from again. Local legend says that there was ritualistic practices going on, locking up children and brainwashing them into occult practices. To the locals this place is known as The Devils Mansion. Now operated as an event center by a non-profit organization, it is currently the home of the weekly Nevada County Growers Market. The North Star House was the setting for Wallace Stegner’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, Angle of Repose.</p><br>
<p>The house eventually became derelict. From the mid-1980s until April 2002, it was owned by Terra Alta Development. During this time Penelope Curtis founded the Julia Morgan Conservancy which began restoration plans for the house. By November 2002, Sandy Sanderson, an Oregon developer, obtained a binding contract on the property. Restoration was begun by the North Star Historic Conservancy after the Nevada County Land Trust hired Bruce Conklin to oversee the site&#39;s restoration in 2003. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 1, 2011, it is still undergoing restoration.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture and fittings</h2><br>
<p>The 10,000 ft&sup2; mansion, with 22 rooms, is an early example of the California Arts and Crafts style. Exemplifying Morgan&#39;s style, the house features exposed beams, strong horizontal lines, the use of shingles, and earth-toned colors.</p><br>
<p>The building is oriented west and u-shaped in plan. An entry courtyard is situated on the east side, while a sprawling stone terrace is on the west side. Framed in wood, the walls are of stone masonry at the first level, and redwood shingle sheathing at the second level. The low pitch gable roof features wide overhangs and eyebrow vents, the original wood shingle replaced in 2004 with fireproof composite shingles. The foundation is of quarry stone and cement, while the chimneys are of brick. There are several entry doors which access the living room, library, study, and dining room. Original features, such as doorknobs and light fixtures, are no longer on the property.</p><br>
<p>A courtyard is situated between the building&#39;s two wings. A small garage, which was added at the northeast corner of the building ca. 1968, is being removed.</p><br>
<h2>Grounds</h2><br>
<p>The grounds feature a Great Lawn and other distinct areas for community events. There are giant ponderosa pines, sloping lawns, and plantings that date to the late 1800s. The hybridized fruit trees that resulted from Foote&#39;s collaboration with Luther Burbank are evidenced in the surrounding heritage orchard.</p><br>
<p>Historically, the property included hydrangeas, magnolias, and crepe myrtle. There was a fern grove to the south and landscaping to the north included Japanese quince, peonies, cedar, and tulip trees.</p><br>
<p>The Tennille Baptist Church in Tennille, Georgia is a Southern Baptist church that was built in 1903. It was designed by architect Charles E. Choate in Gothic architecture. Choate was an architect and Methodist minister who lived in Tennille for many years and designed several buildings in the community.</p><br>
<p>The church was nominated for National Register of Historic Places listing as part of a multiple property listing, and was itself listed on the USA National Register of Historic Places in 1994.</p><br>
<p>The Benton County Courthouse is a courthouse building located in Corvallis, Benton County, in the USA state of Oregon. Built in 1888, the facility is regarded as the oldest county courthouse in Oregon still being used for its original purpose. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Construction</h3><br>
<p>The Benton Country Courthouse building includes a basement and four stories of functional rooms, housing county government offices and functioning court rooms.</p><br>
<p>From the time of its construction in 1888, the spire of the courthouse has housed a gigantic clock, visible from four sides. Until 1953 the clock had to be wound by hand twice a week by a building custodian who climbed into the tower to manually raise the 650 pounds of weights which kept the device in operation.</p><br>
<h3>Building purposes</h3><br>
<p>The basement of the courthouse has long housed the Benton County Elections Department, which under state law retained and stored ballot boxes and original ballots between one local election and the next.</p><br>
<h3>1918 heating reconstruction</h3><br>
<p>By 1918 the original steam heating system had begun to fail after 30 years of use. Bids were taken and in August 1918 a contract was signed with a local plumbing firm for the installation of a completely new hot water heating system was installed based on the what was then new Durham system of threaded pipe and cast iron fittings. Only the original boiler was retained as part of the heating modification, which was completed that same fall.</p><br>
<h3>1954 building remodel</h3><br>
<p>In 1954 the courthouse underwent a major remodeling, in which the large circuit courtroom was split in half, to form a new district courtroom, a judges&#39; office, and a 182-square foot conference room. The orientation of the circuit courtroom was changed from east and west to north and south in its remodeled form and the ceiling was lowered by one-third, to a height of 16 feet. The newly remodeled 35-by-50 foot room is said to have retained much of its large feel, making use of mahogany plywood and a light green color scheme.</p><br>
<p>The 1954 makeover was also used to eliminate some 20 brass spittoons which had adorned the courthouse&#39;s hallways and offices since its original construction. These were replaced with four modern sand urns for the disposal of cigarette butts.</p><br>
<p>The Hotel Benton, or Benton Hotel, is a historic former hotel in Corvallis, Oregon, United States. Constructed from 1924 to 1925, the building represents a distinctive example of the Italian Renaissance style by Portland architects Houghtaling and Dougan. It is one of several Oregon buildings the firm designed in the revival styles popular in the 1920s and 1930s.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Background</h3><br>
<p>After the decline of the Julian Hotel and other earlier establishments during the first years of the 20th Century, the small college town of Corvallis, Oregon found itself without a suitable modern hotel for visiting guests. Several proposals were floated by community leaders for construction of a new "first class, modern, fireproof" hotel during the first half of the 1920s, without success. In the spring of 1924 the development of a modern downtown hotel was undertaken as a project by the local Kiwanis club, headed by President Ralph Lyman Bosworth, in the effort to establish an important public asset for the growing community.</p><br>
<p>A committee of 7, headed by Bosworth and including bankers, an attorney, and newspaper publisher Claude Ingalls, was established as the Benton Hotel Corporation as a legal coordinating body for the project. These worked together with other local business and community leaders doing the initial planning work to get the project off the ground.</p><br>
<p>Reflecting the progressive spirit of the early 1920s, this proposal was largely financed through public subscription and carried out by local contractors with a stake in the success of the project. Some 167 members of the community committed to the loan of $90,000 at 5 percent interest to provide half the financing for the project, with a like amount generated by a 6.5 percent bond floated in Portland by financiers there.</p><br>
<p>This funding allowed for the construction of the planned 7 story concrete and steel edifice, complete with 120 rooms, over half of which contained either a shower or a bath. Floors were laid in concrete and partition walls covered with tile, making the building quiet and relatively safe from the danger of fire.</p><br>
<p>Construction of the building began in 1924 and was completed during the first half of 1925. Approximately 95 percent of the work on the building was carried out by Corvallis contractors and construction workers.</p><br>
<h3>Opening</h3><br>
<p>The hotel opened to the public on June 1, 1925. The opening was promoted with the printing of 50,000 letters of announcement, which were systematically mailed out to business leaders around the state, including a mailing by the dean of the Pharmacy department of Oregon Agricultural College to the state&#39;s pharmacists and another sent to every banker in Oregon in conjunction with a planned meeting there.</p><br>
<p>Salem hotelery operator A.N. Pierce, previously a manager of the Seward Hotel in Portland, was selected as the manager of the new facility.</p><br>
<p>With its prominent location across the street from the Benton County Courthouse and one block from the train station, its easy visibility, and its sophisticated design, the Hotel Benton became a social and business hub of Corvallis for more than 30 years.</p><br>
<h3>Decline and repurposing</h3><br>
<p>The hotel&#39;s fortunes began to suffer after the termination of passenger rail service in the 1940s, and especially with the later rise of auto-oriented motels outside the downtown core. By the 1980s, the building was in use for low-income public housing.</p><br>
<h3>National Register of Historic Places listing</h3><br>
<p>The hotel building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Castolon, also known as La Harmonia Ranch and Campo Santa Helena, was a small community in southwestern Texas, United States, located in what is now Big Bend National Park along the Rio Grande. The location was first settled in 1901 by Cipriano Hernandez, who farmed the area and built the original Castolon Store, now known as the Alvino House.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The area began to attract refugees from nearby Mexico who were fleeing the Mexican Revolution of 1910. The Castolon area was the site on a USA Army encampment, called Campo Santa Helena, to house units patrolling the Mexican–American border. However, by the time the camp was complete in 1920 the border was quiet and the camp buildings were never used by the Army. In 1921 the La Harmonia Company was established in the barracks, operating a trading post and farming cotton. The La Harmonia Company was established in 1918 by Howard Perry, who owned the Chisos Mining Company in Terlingua, in partnership with Wayne Cartledge. Cartledge and his son Eugene chose the name and managed the company. The La Harmonia Company lasted until 1961, when it was sold to the National Park Service. The store was heavily damaged in a fire in May 2019.</p><br>
<h3>2019 Fire</h3><br>
<p>On May 22, 2019, a fire started a day earlier in Mexico jumped the Rio Grande. Due to strong winds, temperatures around 110 °F, and low humidity, the fire spread rapidly.</p><br>
<p>A sudden wind direction change with strong gusts "showered embers across the Castolon Historic District, igniting the latrine building and barracks (which housed the La Harmonia Store and Visitor Center)". This resulted in widespread damage to both buildings.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Castolon is divided into two areas. "Old Castolon" comprises the Old Castolon Store, a cafe-residence and a shed. The Army Compound includes a barracks, now the Castolon Store, a recreation hall, latrine, two officers&#39; residences, a granary and tack room, and the Magdalena, Garlick and Alvino residences. The Magdalena and Garlick houses post-date the Army construction and are associated with La Harmonia Ranch, while the Alvino house pre-dates the Army. All of the buildings are built with adobe walls, and most are roofed with corrugated metal roofing. A few use traditional vigas, latillas and a soil roof covering.</p><br>
<p>Castolon was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 6, 1974.</p><br>

<p>Crystal Lake Cemetery, located in Corvallis, Benton County, Oregon, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in June 2004. It is a burial ground that provides Corvallis residents with funeral and burial services. Although the tombs found at Crystal Lake Cemetery are not the oldest ones in Benton County, it is said that Crystal Lake Cemetery is one of the oldest cemetery in continuous use. Memorial Day services have been offered by it for about 60 years. The Corvallis American Legion Post 11 and the Corvallis Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 640 now sponsored the activity near the Civil War monument.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The predecessor of Corvallis, Marysville, was a brand new town when Joseph Alexander buried his first wife Sarah on their Donation Land Claim in 1850. Designed by Joseph Avery, Marysville is a small town on the Oregon-California trail. In 1851, Joseph Avery renamed this town Corvallis to avoid confusion with another town, Marysville, California. In 1860, Joseph Alexander and his second wife designated the cemetery to Corvallis Masonic Lodge NO. 14. Before the Willamette River was inundated by dams, a small lake was formed by a meandering stream on the east side of the cemetery, which probably be the origin of the name of Crystal Lake Cemetery. It was officially adopted by Lodge on January 20, 1866. The operation and management of the cemetery was handed over to Benton County in 2001.</p><br>
<p>Crystal Lake Cemetery witnesses the evolution of cemeteries in the United States. Around 1831, a revolution began throughout the country, from churchyard cemetery to "rural" or "garden" cemetery. Built outside of towns in park-like settings, these cemeteries became places where people could stroll and enjoy nature, as well as visiting the graves of their friends and relatives. Since 1855, the park movement has inspired the "lawn" cemetery. People imagined an open green lawn as an ideal cemetery. Now, instead of walking down the path to the cemetery, visitors walk through a green lawn. The road is more straight and the tomb is divided into blocks. The newest section of Crystal Lake Cemetery influenced by the memorial park movement began in 1920s. This movement had many characteristics of lawn cemeteries, but required imbedded markers instead of traditional upright headstones. Promoters claimed that this type of cemetery would be easier to maintain.</p><br>

<p>The Julian Hotel, located in Corvallis, Oregon, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The building was first constructed in 1892 , before a major remodel in 1911 changed the name and style of the building as well as added a fourth floor.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Hotel Corvallis</h3><br>
<p>Construction of the original three story hotel was completed in 1892, on the corner of what is now Monroe Avenue and 2nd Street. The original name for the hotel was Hotel Corvallis. The original architect of the Hotel Corvallis is unknown. Hotel Corvallis was a wooden framed structure with a brick facade. The exterior of the hotel was a very ornate Queen Anne style structure, with many Victorian details. The most prominent feature was a corner entrance with a tower bay on second and third floors topped by open cupola, extending a full floor above the roofline of the hotel. This turret was used as a viewing platform for guests. An elaborate pediment on the Second Street side of the hotel bore the name "Hotel / Corvallis".</p><br>
<h3>Major Remodel and Renaming</h3><br>
<p>In 1910, a major overhaul of the existing structure began under direction of architect Elmer E. McClaran, a Portland, Oregon base architect. The remodel to the structure was completed in 1911, with the hotel being transformed in the Colonial style. This overhaul of the structure removed almost all of the Victorian details of the original hotel, most notably the corner bump-out and turret. A fourth floor was added during this major overhaul. This addition brought the room count of the hotel to 100. The remodel also brought with it a large dining hall, that seated up to 300 patrons. This dining hall was advertised at its grand re-opening as having “13 waitresses and 1 Chinese servant”. Once completed, the hotel was renamed after its owner, State Senator Julian N. McFadden.</p><br>
<h3>National Register of Historic Places listing</h3><br>
<p>The hotel building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in March of 1984.</p><br>
<p>The William Sturgis House was built by cattle baron William Sturgis in Cheyenne, Wyoming in 1884. The Shingle Style house was designed by architect George D. Rainsford, a New York architect who moved to Wyoming to raise Morgan horses and Clydesdales. While horse breeding was his principal occupation, Rainsford continued to practice architecture, designing many of the houses in the neighborhood surrounding the Sturgis residence.</p><br>
<p>Sturgis was another New Yorker, who moved to Cheyenne in 1873, joining forces with his brother Thomas to form the Northwestern Cattle Company and the Union Cattle Company, becoming one of the most prominent cattle ranchers in Wyoming. The Sturgises were instrumental in the founding of the Wyoming Stock Growers Association. William held interests in mines, the Stockgrower&#39;s National Bank and the Cheyenne Electric Light Company. Sturgis took heavy losses in his cattle holdings as a result of the hard winter of 1886-87 and sold the house to another rancher, John Whitaker.</p><br>
<p>The -story L-shaped house originally had brick on the first floor and shingles above. The brick was covered with stucco. A complex roofline features multiple dormers, including an eyelid dormer over the front door. The interior features a large living hall, featuring fishscale-pattern shingles as a wall treatment.</p><br>
<p>The house was published in American Architect, attributed to William A. Bates. Vincent Scully, who repeats the Bates attribution, notes that the house is significant as an example of the westward spread of the Shingle Style. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 8, 1982.</p><br>
<p>The house was the headquarters of GreenArrays, Inc. - a company founded by Charles Moore, the creator of Forth, until 2024.</p><br>
