<p>The Carnegie Public Library at Huntington, West Virginia, formerly also known as the Cabell County Public Library, is a historic library building located on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and Ninth Street. It was the first public library in the county. It served the community as a library until 1980, when a new library opened across the street. The building currently houses the Huntington Junior College.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>At the time of the library&#39;s construction, there were no public libraries in Huntington or Cabell County, and the only existing library was located in the First Congregational Church. In 1901, industrialist Andrew Carnegie offered $25,000 for the construction of a public library, on the condition that the city would supply the land and maintain the building. A lot of ninety feet square was conveyed by the city to the Board of Education for this purpose, and plans were drawn up by local architect James B. Stewart. Construction began in the spring of 1902, and Carnegie donated an additional $10,000 for the building. The library was one of three thousand constructed across the country by Carnegie between 1885 and 1919.</p><br>
<p>The cornerstone was laid on November 14, 1902, by W. H. H. Holswade, President of the Board of Education, and H. C. Gordon, the mayor of Huntington. The original plans called for stone veneer only on the south and west sides, facing Fifth Avenue and Ninth Street, while the other sides would be brick cemented into imitation stone. However, in December, 1902 it was decided to continue the stone veneer along the librarys north side, and forty feet of the east side. Construction was finished a year later, and the library opened to the public on January 1, 1904. The librarys initial collection included only 750 books, and the building also housed the offices of the Board of Education.</p><br>
<p>The first librarian was Miss Adrianne Burns, who served from 1904 to 1908, and enlarged the collection to 6,000 volumes. Miss Lewis Harvey served as librarian from 1908 to 1943. During the library&#39;s second decade of operation, the Board of Education vacated its offices, and the library came to occupy the entire building. The interior was renovated in the 1930s under the supervision of architect Albert F. Tucker. The Carnegie library served the city of Huntington until 1980, when a new public library opened across Ninth Street. At the same time, the Carnegie library was added to the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The Cabell County Library Board sold the building for $185,000. A group of investors from Columbus, Ohio then renovated the interior for use as a restaurant, known appropriately as "The Old Library". Serving lunch and dinner, the restaurant featured a lounge with a square island bar on the first floor, and dining tables on the mezzanine. There was a game room, and the restaurant was decorated with books and shelves, alluding to the building&#39;s original purpose. The restaurant had a capacity of one hundred eighty, and did well initially, but it closed within a few years. In 1985, the Huntington Junior College moved into the building, where it remains in 2023.</p><br>
<p>Until 1915, a statue of a Union soldier stood in front of the library&#39;s southwest corner. Pictured in various postcards showing the library and its environs, the monument was probably erected by the Grand Army of the Republic in the 1890s. It vanished in mysterious circumstances in 1915, amid controversy over plans to construct a Confederate monument at Ritter Park. Witnesses reported seeing the statue loaded into a wagon, believing that it would be relocated to the park, but the statue was never seen again.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The structure is built in the Beaux-Arts style. It features two stories with a raised basement, with smooth gray ashlar walls. The building&#39;s design is distinctly neoclassical, and follows the Ionic order. The portico features paired columns supporting a pediment, with smaller pediments on the west and south sides. The east side is the plainest, and lacks a gable end or pediment.</p><br>
<p>On the frieze are inscribed the names of various authors and philosophers from classical antiquity to modern times. On the library&#39;s south side, facing Fifth Avenue, Socrates has pride of place directly above the portico, flanked by Homer to the left, and Plato on the right. On the west side of the building, facing Ninth Street, are Shakespeare (spelled "Shakspere"), Macaulay, Schiller, and Longfellow. The frieze is partially hidden by neighboring buildings on the north and east sides, but Franklin appears in the northwest corner, while Virgil and Goethe are inscribed on the east side, nearest Fifth Avenue. There may be as many as three additional names on the north frieze, but the entire east side is visible, due to the lack of a gable end on that side of the building, and it seems to be blank following Goethe. A similar list of names is inscribed above the windows of the Carnegie Library at Binghamton, New York, which also opened in 1904: Shakespeare, Homer, Plato, Virgil, Dante, Bacon, Hugo, Emerson, Lowell, Goethe, Schiller, Longfellow, and Hawthorne.</p><br>

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 but was demolished in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original institution was founded in 1899 by the Rev. Charles E. McGhee as the West Virginia Normal and Industrial School for Colored Children in Bluefield, West Virginia. McGhee moved the institution to Huntington, West Virginia in March 1900, but was forced to move to Blue Sulphur Springs (near Ona, West Virginia) due to lack of funds. However, the school reportedly faced local hostility there. The school moved back to Huntington in 1903 following the purchase of 210 acres by Reverend McGhee on the city outskirts overlooking the Guyandotte River. The state began to subsidize teacher salaries in 1903. The original three-story building, which had been built in 1904 in part by the children&#39;s labor, experienced a fire on November 5, 1909. A building within the complex under construction at the time of the fire escaped damage. It is not clear whether the original building had to be entirely rebuilt or was simply remodeled.</p><br>
<p>In 1911, the private institution, which functioned as an orphanage and school, came under state control. It was then renamed the West Virginia Colored Orphans Home. The school building burned down on April 5, 1920 and a new building was constructed between 1922 and 1923. A separate institution, the State Industrial Home for Colored Girls, was established in a building constructed on the property between 1924 and 1926, also of three stories. In 1931, the original institutions name was changed to the West Virginia Colored Childrens Home. By 1951, residents of the Children&#39;s Home were no longer educated on site, but were bused to segregated public schools.</p><br>
<p>The West Virginia Colored Children&#39;s Home was closed in 1956 and the building was used as a nursing home, the West Virginia Home for Aged and Infirm Colored Men and Women.</p><br>
<p>The property was purchased by a mental health and addiction treatment group in 2008 and transferred to Cabell County Board of Education in 2009. The building was demolished beginning on May 5, 2011, over the objections of preservationists, in preparation for the construction of Huntington East Middle School.</p><br>
<p>Reverend McGhee served as superintendent until 1915. Under his supervision, the average number of residents reached its height between 1912 and 1913 of 74 children. Howard H. Railey later served as a superintendent. He was also the third African American to serve in West Virginia’s legislature.</p><br>
<p>The building faced north. The east half of the building housed the boys, and the west half the girls. Originally the building had extensive two-story porticos that were later enclosed leaving only a central bay.</p><br>
<p>The property included a farm worked by the residents and, at times, an employed farmer and assistant farmer who lived in a cottage outbuilding. The property was improved by the Civil Works Administration during the Great Depression.</p><br>

<p>The Marquette City Hall is a former government building located at 204 Washington Street in Marquette, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975 and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1974.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Up until 1893, the city of Marquette had no designated City Hall, and was indeed using, rent-free, a building owned by Peter White. However, when White informed the city that their lease had run out, civic pride prodded the government to plan the construction of a new city hall. Contractor Emil Bruce constructed the building at a cost of slightly under $50,000. Part of the contract gave preference to locally sourced building material, and the demand for bricks and sandstone was great enough that the local economy was bolstered through the depression that lingered through the early 1890s. The cornerstone was laid in May 1894, and the building was completed later in the year and dedicated in early 1895.</p><br>
<p>The city used the building until 1975, and it was then sold to a private developer who refurbished it into professional offices.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
