<p>The Woodland Place Historic District is located on the west side of Des Moines, Iowa, United States. The houses in the district are primarily bungalows and square houses. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2000.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Percival-Porter and Company had Woodland Place platted in June 1907 and Ellen F. Whitman, the landowner, had it officially recorded on July 5, 1907. The plat was composed of six rectangular blocks with 138 numbered lots that measured 50 ft by 132 ft. There was little in the way of development in the plat until 1910 when Des Moines real estate developer Henry H. Pharmer secured 19 lots in 1910 and 1911 in the northwest quarter of the plat. He also had a dozen showcase bungalows built in 1910. Percival and Porter offered 27 newly built houses for sale during the first half of June 1910, although records indicate only ten were built. Some of these houses could have been those built by Pharmer. What makes this situation unique in Des Moines is that the developers were offering completed houses for sale, rather than empty lots. The houses were being offered for $3,500. It required a down payment of $350 and a monthly payment of $35. The houses that Percival-Porter offered were seven room, square houses. Many of the people who bought land and had their own homes built chose to build bungalows. Harry Taylor was responsible for the houses that were built around 1920. He purchased the lots from the United Investment Company and several realtors. These lots were also in the northern part of the plat, right below Pharmers’.</p><br>
<p>The residents of Woodland Place organized early on in its existence. Mrs. Raymond A. Bullard organized the "Woodland Neighbors" in early 1911. It was a woman&#39;s group who goals were social interaction in order to develop lasting friendships. Around the same time the "Woodland Boosters" were organized to promote "sidewalk, paving, and other improvements and in a general way to enlist the interest of the people of that section in the city beautiful movement." The "Woodland Place Improvement Club" was organized in mid-1912. Its accomplishments included having 27th Street lowered by as much as 12 ft, as well as ensuring the safety of the residents.</p><br>

<p>Freitag&#39;s Pure Oil Service Station is an automobile service station styled like an English cottage and built in Monroe, Wisconsin in 1935 by the Pure Oil Company. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Many early gas stations were rough, simple shacks along the road. The Pure Oil Company decided to defy that stereotype with its widespread brand. In the 1920s, their chief engineer Carl August Peterson designed a steep-roofed, brick-walled station in a Tudor Revival style. It had tall chimneys on each end, flower boxes and fancy ironwork, suggesting a picturesque English cottage. Pure Oil built hundreds of cottage-style stations like this across the USA from 1927 through the 1930s. The standard look suggested predictable quality to the passing motorist, prefiguring today&#39;s chain restaurants. The "cottage" styling allowed the station to blend in - even into residential neighborhoods.</p><br>
<p>Freitag&#39;s service station in Monroe is one of these cottage-style stations. Along with the standard office section it has a "lubridome" section, where cars were serviced. This station was built by C. W. (Slim) Freitag, a big band trombonist and pilot. He built it for his father to operate. The original cost for the building and the land was $16,000. After Pure Oil, by then owned by the Union Oil Company of California, merged with Union 76, the service station became affiliated with that brand.</p><br>
<p>The Jacob Regez Sr. House is a historic house built in 1901 by an important local cheesemaker in Monroe, Wisconsin, United States. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 17, 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Jacob Regez was born in 1849 in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland. His father made cheese, and Jacob learned cheesemaking at a factory scale. In 1872 he emigrated and in 1875 set up a cheesemaking business in Monroe. Soon he had an interest in twenty local cheese factories and operated the large Legler Cheese Factory. Later he was involved in the Monroe Milk Condensing Company.</p><br>
<p>In 1884 Regez had a Queen Anne-styled house built on the site of the current house, but it was hit by lightning and burned in 1901. Within a week of the fire, Regez hired Fridolin Heer & Son, Swiss architects of Dubuque, to design a replacement. It was finished within six months.</p><br>
<p>The 1901 house sits on the same limestone foundation as the 1884 house, but the frame structure is a different Queen Anne style design, 2.5 stories with bay windows, broad eaves, pedimented dormers, and a complex roof. On the southeast corner is a large one-story round veranda with its roof supported by seven Doric columns. The walls are clad in narrow clapboard, with bands of sawtooth shingles. Inside are parquet floors, a built-in china cabinet, a tiled fireplace, a mural, stenciling, and an ornate main staircase.</p><br>
<p>The NRHP considers the house significant as one of the finest historic houses in Monroe, and as an intact example of late Queen Anne architecture. Regez himself was "one of the dominant figures in the development of Monroe&#39;s Swiss cheese industry." And the design is an important work of Fridolin Heer. The house has also been listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places and designated a Monroe Landmark.</p><br>

<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>History and architectural features</h2><br>
<p>The property on which this historic two-story, stuccoed stone structure was erected dates to 1717 when William Penn awarded a land grant of 1,000 acres near the Little Conestoga Creek in what would later become Lancaster County, Pennsylvania to Hans Brubaker and Christian Hershey. The original residence was built on the southern portion of this land between 1755 and 1756 by Christian Stoneman or John Stoner. Initially measuring twenty by seventeen feet, its original ceilings and fireplace were still visible at the time that this property was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. In 1790, John Stoner, a successful miller, enlarged the home by erecting a large -story, five bay by three bay Georgian style dwelling in front of the earlier section.</p><br>
<p>The residence and property were then acquired circa 1825 by William Coleman, a prominent, 19th-century ironmaster whose daughter Ann Caroline Coleman (1796-1819) had been the fiancée of future USA President James Buchanan prior to her death in 1819. A smokehouse, which is one of the contributing structures to this historic property, was also added sometime around 1825. Advertised for sale in the Lancaster Journal on November 2, 1825, as a "beautiful country seat and farm called Mount Pleasant," it was purchased in 1826 by Langdon Cheves, who had served as the ninth Speaker of the USA House of Representatives from January 19, 1814, to March 3, 1815. Cheves subsequently added two side wings to each side of the 1790 section, and renamed the property as "Abbeville" in honor of his birthplace, Abbeville, South Carolina.</p><br>
<p>When Cheves chose to return to South Carolina circa 1830, Coleman reacquired the property, and held it until 1835 when it was converted into the Abbeville Institute. Inspired by the educational methods of Dr. William Augustus Muhlenberg, co-rector of St. James Episcopal Church and the father of church schools in America, it subsequently became a prominent school for boys. Muhlenberg departed Lancaster in 1826 and founded his famous Church Institute at Flushing, Long Island, in 1828, but he had left a lasting scholastic legacy as founder of the Second Public School District in Pennsylvania.</p><br>
<p>The school and land were then sold to businessman Christopher Hager in 1851, who owned Hager&#39;s department store and was responsible for building the Fulton Opera House.</p><br>
<p>A stable and carriage house were built circa 1875; both are now considered contributing structures.</p><br>
<p>In 1926, C. Dudley Armstrong, vice president of Armstrong World Industries, purchased the home, which remained in the Armstrong family through at least the late 1940s. It was also later owned by Dr. John Farmer, and his wife, who were responsible for nominating the historic property for placement on the National Register of Historic Places on February 17, 1978. The property was then officially listed on the NRHP later that same year.</p><br>
<p>Abbeville was then purchased by Robert and Ruth Ecklin in 1995.</p><br>

<p>Conestoga Town is an historic archaeological site memorializing the Native American tribal village which stood on the site from the late 17th into the mid-18th-century; it is located at what is now Manor Township in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The town is a settlement at the southern end of the once vast range of the Susquehannock nation or Conestoga Indian nation, which once extended from the northern reaches of Maryland to the along the southern width of southern New York State and southern Catskills where a related people, the Five Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy held western settlement in check for 200 years. Their territory encompassed the entire drainage basin of the Susquehanna River which shares the tribe&#39;s root name and extended to the drainage divides of the flanking mountains both to the East to the Delaware nation and to the West to Shawnee lands. The town is the earliest established known surviving settlement of the tribe, and it is known that William Penn himself visited to negotiate with the tribal leaders. The site is also one known to be among the last occupied of the Susquehannock town sites in Pennsylvania as they faded into obscurity.</p><br>
<p>Throughout the majority of the seventeenth century, the Susquehannock-Conestoga were a strong fierce Indian people who also came to be known locally as the Conestogas (meaning "Buried Pole Place" or "town," much like "Can-ah Da" means "Buried Pole Place" or "town" in other Iroquois languages). Excavations revealed log-cabin like structures and cemeteries. The village was occupied from the 1690s to about 1725&mdash;well after the collapse of the Susquehannock nation in the 1670s, after which the village moved to different sites within a 414-acre tract. It was an important meeting place between various Native American tribes and Pennsylvania government officials, including William Penn.</p><br>
<p>Of the early neighbors of Conestoga we find that thirty eight of them were signers of the petition in 1728 to create the county of Lancaster, out of 188 signers from the entire county. The Jones the Hendrickes, Postlethwaites, Gales, Swifts, Linvills, Worleys, Pattersons, McCurrys, Bakers, Middletons, and Wilkinses, Hughs, Willises, Mitchells, Brians, Powells, and Ludford representing the English. Stoneman, Steh, man, Ferr, Barr, Punk, Lemon, Hans, packer, Miller and others representing the German-Swiss. All signed it.</p><br>
<p>The Court records in Chester county as to Conestoga township in those days show that both the English and the Swiss took part in public affairs.</p><br>
<p>The beginning of the little group of houses called Conestoga town started in 1715 by James Hendricks, who in that year secured the right to 1,166 acres of land, reaching from Rock Hill up the Conestoga River, eight miles— almost to Wabank and east along and south of "Stehman&#39;s run," nearly to New Danville Old Mennonite Church. This settlement differed from the Pequea settlement to the east. While the Pequea colony, at Willow Street, were all Swiss Mennonites, the settlement along the Conestoga consisted of a Scotch-Irish and English core, bordering on both sides of that river, surrounded by scores of German-Swiss on all sides.</p><br>
<p>In 1763, the Paxton Boys raided a later Conestoga Town village.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
