<p>The Hoham-Klinghammer-Weckerle House and Brewery Site, located in Plymouth, Marshall County, Indiana is connected to three German families, all related through marriage, that settled in the area in 1844–1865. The Hoham, Klinghammer, and Weckerle families established and operated the Plymouth Brewery from 1857 to 1888. Among several buildings that existed at brewery site was a Stick/Queen Anne style house, now the only remaining building at the site.</p><br>
<p>The exact date and builder of the house is not known, construction started prior to 1882, probably by the Klinghammers. The largely brick house has two full floors and a half story top floor. A partially exposed full basement adds to the overall height of the house. Two brick vaults are buried fifty feet west of the house and were a part of the original brewery building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>John Hoham was born in Strasburg, Germany on June 17, 1820. He came to the United States in 1840 and settled in Marshall County near Lake Maxinkuckee in 1844. In 1857 Hoham and Klinghammer purchased three acres for $75, located a mile southwest of Plymouth at that time. They constructed the first brewery in the county on this property.</p><br>
<p>John Hoham and John Klinghammer constructed the large brick vaults existing on the property. The vats located in one of the vaults are believed to have been used to ferment the beer. Hoham sold his interest in the brewery to Klinghammer in 1867. The abstract refers to the lands as "brewery property".</p><br>
<p>A linen map dating to about 1882 shows proposed routes for the Vandalia Railroad; one route passes by the south side of the brewery property. The property is marked "brewery" with six buildings drawn including a larger building along the east edge of the property with a footprint in a shape similar to the existing house. The construction of the house probably occurred prior to 1887 and assuming the building on the linen map is the house, the construction date would be about 1880.</p><br>
<p>It was reported that the "Old Plymouth Brewery" had been sitting idle for one year in 1889. The brewery was then used for egg storage during the 1890s. It was while Beldon was using it for storage that the main brewery building was destroyed by fire.</p><br>
<p>The house gained local fame in the Prohibition era when was used as for illegal gambling and liquor sales. Purchased for use as a road house in 1923, by 1928 what one local newspaper noted as the "County&#39;s greatest raid" had occurred there, and the business, known as the Pine Tree Inn, was padlocked for a year. It is unclear if it ever reopened as legitimate roadhouse.</p><br>
<p>The Central Police Station, also known as the National Military Heritage Museum, is a historic police station located at 701 Messanie in St. Joseph, Missouri. It was designed by Eckel & Mann and built in 1891 with an addition in 1909. It is a three-story, "L"-plan brick building in the Richardsonian Romanesque style. It has a hipped roof, limestone ornamentation and details, and a round corner tower.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<p>Villa Verde, located at 800 S. San Rafael in Pasadena, California, is a historic estate built in 1927. The estate was designed by Marston, Van Pelt & Maybury and is representative of their Spanish Colonial Revival designs. The design features extensive wrought iron ornamentation and a terra cotta roof. F. A. Hardy, former chairman of the Goodrich Corporation and a renowned horticulturist, first inhabited the house and planted its still-surviving garden.</p><br>
<p>The estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. The listing included two contributing buildings on 1.8 acre.</p><br>
<p>Jackson Park Town Site Addition Brick Row is a group of three historic houses and two frame garages located on the west side of the 300 block of South Third Street in Lander, Wyoming. Two of the homes were built in 1917, and the third in 1919. The properties were added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 27, 2003.</p><br>
<h2>615 South Third Street</h2><br>
<p>The -story brick house at 615 South Third Street was built for Alexander (Scotty) Johnston, a successful sheep rancher, in 1917. The structure is situated on three lots lined with large cottonwood trees. Red brick covers the building on all sides, with a partial foundation visible at the bottom of the exterior walls and a water table of brown brick runs around the entire structure about two feet above grade. The roof is gable-fronted, with two projecting side dormers. A full-length porch built on the front of the building features a hipped roof supported by boxed columns. The porch railings and all the home&#39;s windowsills (with the exception of two on the back porch) are sandstone. A second porch on the back of the house was originally screened in but was winterized with the addition of two casement windows in 1999. A detached garage is set slightly behind the structure.</p><br>
<p>The front porch, accessible via concrete steps, leads to the paneled oak front door with beveled glass. The screen door, of white aluminum, was installed in 2001. To the right of the front door is a bay window with decorative brickwork. A similar bay window with a hipped roof is located on the right (north) side of the home, next to a tall brick chimney. Towards the rear of the building, also on the right side, is a single-hung window. On the rear of the house, wooden steps (reconstructed in 1999) lead onto the enclosed back porch through a wooden screen door and a wooden paneled door. A single double-hung window is the only one on the first-floor rear of the house. On the left (south) side of the structure is a pair of double-hung windows next to a door leading to the basement.</p><br>
<p>Both second-floor gables of the home and both dormers sport double-hung windows. Wood shingles cover the dormer walls from the tops of these windows to the roof. The roof itself originally utilized wood shingles as well, but these have been replaced with asphalt shingles.</p><br>
<p>Inside the building are oak woodwork and wooden flooring. Separating the parlor, living room, and dining room from each other are two colonnaded bookcases. The dining room features a large Craftsman-style china cabinet with leaded glass. The kitchen, family room, and a small bathroom sit in the rear of the home. The second floor, accessed by a bracketed oak staircase at the front entry, contains four bedrooms and another bathroom, this one sporting the original cast-iron bathtub and pedestal sink.</p><br>
<h2>635 South Third Street</h2><br>
<p>The -story Arts and Crafts bungalow at 635 South Third Street, sandwiched between the other two houses of the Jackson Park Town Site Addition Brick Row, was constructed in 1919 for Leslie Read (grandson of pioneer Lander businessman Major Noyes Baldwin) by carpenter Dan Packard. The roof is side-gabled, with a dormer on the front and another dating from 1989 on the back. The house shares three tree-lined lots with a detached two-car garage accessible from the alley running along the propertys south (left) border. The houses foundation is visible for about two feet over ground level and is covered in stucco. The first story is covered in blonde brick, while the porch railings and the flat arches and sills of all but one of the first-floor windows utilize brown brick.</p><br>
<p>Fronting the house are three double-hung windows, to the right of which is situated a "cutaway" front porch with a single tapering brick column at the structures northeast corner. A pair of double-hung windows look into the house from the back wall of the porch, and the Craftsman-style front door with stained glass is in the porchs east wall. A pair of double-hung windows and a single-double hung window are on the houses right (north) side. Another double-hung window is on the rear of the building, next to a small window that once utilized a double-hung sash but has been changed to glass block for privacy, as the window looks into a bathroom. Also on the rear of the house is a 1989 addition on a concrete block foundation, with exterior walls finished in wood shingles, a picture window and a gable roof. The addition was built in a manner that complements the buildings original styling. A bay window with three double-hung windows and a shed roof is on the structure&#39;s south (left) side, toward the rear of the house; toward the front is a chimney flanked by single double-hung windows. Also on the left side of the house, a wooden storm door and a paneled door lead into the basement.</p><br>
<p>The gabled second-floor ends of the building are covered in wood shingles and feature triple-ganged double-hung windows. The roofs gabled front dormer is finished in wood lap siding, although the actual gable in covered with wood shingles. A pair of double-hung windows are centered in the front of the dormer, flanked by single double-hung windows. The rear dormer, added after the original construction, sports triple-ganged double-hung windows and wood shingles. The homes roof is covered in asphalt shingles, and features the exposed rafter tails and knee braces.</p><br>
<p>The inside of the house echoes the Arts and Crafts styling of the exterior, with oak flooring and pine woodwork. A living room, dining room, kitchen, den, bathroom, and bedroom are on the first floor, while three bedrooms and an additional bathroom dating from 1989 are upstairs.</p><br>
<h2>677 South Third Street</h2><br>
<p>The third house of the Jackson Park Town Site Addition Brick Row is a large -story Arts & Crafts home occupying three lots at the northwest corner of 3rd and Cascade Streets, with several large blue spruce trees and gardens. The home was built in 1919 for Frank S. Bower, a local lumberyard owner and sheep rancher. Fronted by a partially enclosed wraparound porch, the house is topped by an intersecting gable roof. A two-car garage built to match the house is attached on a rear corner. The house&#39;s exterior is covered in brown brick, with the concrete foundation visible for approximately one foot above grade.</p><br>
<p>Concrete and brick stairs lead onto the porch, the roof of which is supported by six brick columns with decorative arches in between. Large cottage windows with stained glass headers are on either side of a Craftsman-style front door with a stained glass insert. Part of the porch was enclosed with eight-light casement windows in 1935. The most prominent feature on the structure&#39;s left (north) side is a large window bay, sharing the wall with a chimney flanked by three double-hung windows and two more double-hung windows next to a side entry, with a wooden storm door and a wooden paneled door. Sharing the back of the structure with the attached garage, a large enclosed porch sports six double-hung windows and a hipped roof. The left (north) side of the house includes more windows, with a window bay matching the one on the right side of the house and a set of triple-ganged double-hung windows flanked by two single double-hung windows.</p><br>
<p>The roofs front gable, clipped in the front to form a jerkinhead like the houses other three gables, has a pair of double-hung windows flanked by two small triangular windows; the gable end is finished in stucco. The gables on the left and right sides of the roof are built similarly. The rear gable, however, features two double-hung windows flanking a picture window; the picture window replaced a set of French doors opening onto an upper-level porch that was later removed.</p><br>
<p>A spacious living room, dining room, sitting room, bathroom, bedroom, and kitchen are located on the first floor. The woodwork, central staircase, and floors are all oak. The home also sports a built-in buffet, pocket doors, and ten-foot ceilings with ornate crown molding. On the second floor are a large reading room, three bedrooms, and three bathrooms.</p><br>
<p>The Bullard House is an historic house at 4 Woodward Avenue in the center of Berlin, Massachusetts, United States.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The -story wood-frame house has a complex construction history, having been modified or extended numerous times since its oldest portion was built c. 1780. This old portion was probably three bays wide and two stories high, with an entrance near the east present facade corner. In the early 1790s the building&#39;s size was greatly expanded, with additions to the west and rear, giving it a saltbox appearance. In the 1850s the west side of the rear leanto was further extended to add a new kitchen space. A shed was added to this kitchen space in the 1920s and enlarged in 1956, and a shed dormer was added to the east rear of the building.</p><br>
<p>The house has seen a variety of uses. When first built, it was used as a shop by John Pollard, Jr. At some point in the 1790s a tavern business was added, either by Pollard or one of the subsequent owners. It continued in use as a tavern until 1813, when Solomon Howe moved that business to a new building across the street. This house was then divided into two housing units, which were sold separately. The east side was mostly occupied by tenants for the next 150 years. The west side would be principally occupied by members of the Bullard family, who operated a smithy on the site for about 120 years. The two sides came under a single owner in 1941, but the units remained separate. The property was sold to the town in 1996, and now serves as a local history museum.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>In popular culture</h2><br>
<p>The house featured as a location in the 1979 film The Europeans, a Merchant Ivory adaptation of the Henry James novel of the same name.</p><br>
<p>The Berlin Town Hall is a historic town hall at 12 Woodward Avenue in Berlin, Massachusetts. Built in 1870 and enlarged in 1904, it served as the town hall until 1999, and continues to serve as a local community meeting space. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Berlin Town Hall is located in the village center of Berlin, facing the triangular green across Woodward Avenue. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, covered by a gabled roof and finished in wooden clapboards. Its facade has Greek Revival features, including corner pilasters and a portico sheltering a front entry that is flanked by pilasters and topped by a two-light transom window. The portico, built in 1875, is supported by pillars that match the pilasters in detailing, and is topped by a flat roof surrounded by a low balustrade. Its interior is reflective of substantial alterations made in 1909, but retains a number of features of its 1870 construction date.</p><br>
<p>Berlin was incorporated in 1806, taking parts of several adjacent towns. Its early town meetings were held in the local meetinghouse, which was taken down in 1822, and then in a rotating collection of private and public buildings, including district schoolhouses and taverns. Its first town house, essentially an oversized district school, was built in 1831. By the end of the Civil War, the town&#39;s growth had made it evident that a larger building was needed. This structure was built in 1870 to meet that need. The building was used not just for town offices and town meetings, but served as a civic center and meeting place for a variety of community organizations. In 1999 the town moved out of the building, which lacked its growing demand for additional office space. The building was turned over to a local community group, which is now responsible for its maintenance.</p><br>
<p>Schellbourne, formerly known as Fort Schellbourne and Schell Creek Station is a ghost town located in the Schell Creek Range in White Pine County in Nevada, United States, located 43 mi north of Ely. The town was a stopover along the Central Overland Route, Pony Express and original routing of the Lincoln Highway. It is today Nevada Historical Marker number 51. The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. Its boundaries were increased in 1977.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Schellbourne is named for Major A. J. Schell, who was in charge of troops responsible for protecting the Butterfield Overland Mail. The location was once a Shoshone Indian village. It became an Overland Stage and Mail stop in 1859, and a Pony Express station in 1860 as Schell Creek station. The Overland Telegraph came through in 1861. It was briefly known as Fort Schellbourne in 1862 when troops camped here to counter Indian harassment of the stages and mails.</p><br>
<p>In the 1870s, Schellbourne became a mining town, with about 500 inhabitants. The Schellbourne post office was in operation from December 1871 until October 1925.</p><br>
<p>It declined after the Central Pacific Railroad was completed in 1869, to the north. Then it revived as a mining camp in 1871 after gold discoveries nearby.</p><br>
<p>Nowadays it is well preserved ghost town on a private ranch. It is listed as Nevada Historical Marker 51.</p><br>
<p>The Yturri–Edmunds Historic Site is a historic site in San Antonio, Texas. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Bexar County, Texas. The homestead and mill were designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1966.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In the early 19th century during the era of Mexico&#39;s General Colonization Law, Manuel Yturri de Castillo was given a land grant on property once owned by Mission Concepcion. He was thought to have been born in Spain, but immigrated to Mexico. There, he was employed by Spanish merchants who transferred him to San Antonio. In 1821, he married Maria Josefa Rodriguez, whose family were among the first Canary Islanders to arrive in the area in 1731. Upon his death, his property passed to his heirs. His granddaughter Ernestine Edmunds bequeathed the property in the historic site to the San Antonio Conservation Society (SACS), which took possession of it in 1961.</p><br>
<h2>Historic site</h2><br>
<p>The adobe-block house, which is thought to have been built by Yturri de Castillo 1840–1860, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Bexar County, Texas, in 1996. SACS began major restoration in 1964, which included repairs, rebuilding of the porch area, re-plastering, and complete interior restoration.</p><br>
<p>Also on the site is an operational grist mill thought to have existed when Yturri de Castillo bought the property. Former Pioneer Flour Mills executive Ernst Schuchard and architect Marvin Eickenroht oversaw the complete restoration of the mill in 1964. An 1881 two-story carriage house originally on the Oge property was purchased by SACS in 1964, restored and moved to the Yturri–Edmunds site. A caliche and stone home built by Cristof Postert on South Flores was donated to SACS in 1984 and also moved to the Yturri–Edmunds site.</p><br>
<p>The site is operated as a museum by SACS, on a by-appointment basis, and admission fees apply. With a 2-week notice, visitors are able to see the mill in operation.</p><br>

<p>Clay Hall is a mid-twentieth century womens dormitory located on the campus of Northern Oklahoma College in Enid, Oklahoma that has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2012. Architect Roy W. Shaw designed it for Phillips University in 1941. The building was named after Robert Henry Clay, the husband of Sadie Clay, who had given a $25,000 donation to the project. A cornerstone ceremony was held on October 9, 1941. Mefford construction had completed the exterior by 1942, and the interior was completed in 1946, having been delayed by the onset of World War II. The dormitory cost $175,000 to build, and the University held a dedication ceremony on October 11, 1946. In 1951 and 1959, a north and a south wing were added to the building in order to accommodate an expanding student population. These additional wings increased Clay Halls residential space from 150 women to 258, and its building size to 59,000 square feet. Phillips Universitys enrollment peaked in the 1970s, and the dormitory closed briefly in 1985, was reopened in 1986, and then permanently shut down in 1987. Clay Hall is the oldest dormitory on the campus. Its predecessor, Athenian Hall, was demolished in 1952, and a mens dormitory, Earl Butts Hall, was completed in 1955.</p><br>
<p>California Hall is one of the original "classical core" Beaux-Arts-style Classical Revival buildings on the UC Berkeley campus. Construction began in 1903 under the lead of University Architect John Galen Howard after the university&#39;s adoption of the Phoebe Hearst master architectural plan for the Berkeley campus. The building opened in August, 1905. In 1982, it was named to the National Register of Historic Places, and is designated as an architectural feature of California Historic Landmark no. 946. In 1991, the Landmarks Preservation Committee of the City of Berkeley designated it Berkeley City Landmark no. 147.</p><br>
<p>It currently houses the University of California Berkeley Chancellor&#39;s Office and the Graduate Division.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>California Hall was one of the first buildings to be constructed upon adoption of the Hearst architectural plan. Opened in 1905, it was built with a state appropriation of $250,000 and university funds of $19,000.</p><br>
<p>It originally housed the universitys central administration and the History, Political Economy and Commerce departments. After a 1941 remodel it housed classrooms and the Institute of Industrial Relations and classrooms; in 1968 the classrooms were removed and it became the home of the Chancellors Office and the Graduate Division. In 1982, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. In 1990 it was seismic renovated.</p><br>
<h3>Exterior design</h3><br>
<p>The building&#39;s frame is steel sheathed in reinforced concrete. The exterior is granite from the nearby Raymond quarries, chosen for its hardness and uniform color. The granite was then lined with brick. Granite is not fireproof, but campus plan at the time called for large spacing between buildings to reduce the threat of fire, and California Hall was the first campus building incorporating fire-proofing techniques such as metal studs, wire lath and fireproof plaster.</p><br>
<p>"If there is a building in the State that is perfectly fireproof, in which a fire cannot start, or could find nothing to make headway on if possibly started, it is California Hall", claimed the University Chronicle. The roof is concrete-sheathed steel covered in Spanish mission tiles (tejas), reflecting Howard&#39;s desire to create a uniquely "Californian" architectural style. The rooftop features skylights studded by copper finials.</p><br>
<h3>Original interior features</h3><br>
<p>The original doors, window-casings and other wooden features of the buildings interior architecture were made of solid oak, and the buildings original furniture was of solid oak and mahogany. The floors were originally made of metal and concrete, and carpeted in cork. The entire building was wired for electric lighting, which was intended for use in the evenings. Light during the day was provided by ample windows (one in each room) and the skylights dotting the rooftop. Similar to the Hearst Memorial Mining Building being built on the university campus by Howard at the same time, the interior was made to be architecturally "elastic"—these same subdivisions could be cheaply and easily removed without compromising the structure&#39;s exterior steel shell.</p><br>
<p>The lecture room had tiered seating that could hold 500 people, and was originally equipped with a stereopticon. The room was intended for the universitys large History, English and Botany classes, which were difficult to accommodate previously due to a lack of adequate indoor space on the campus. Behind the speakers platform was a door that allowed the speaker and the audience direct access between the lecture room and the outside of the building. To the south of the large lecture hall were classrooms and faculty offices, uniformly painted ivory in color.</p><br>
<p>The second-floor corridor, lit by skylights, was inspired by the plan of an atrium of an ancient Roman house. The corridor served as a central lobby connecting together the universitys administrative offices, including the recently founded Recorders Office and Secretarys Office. The universitys information bureau and a private telephone exchange were located across from the stairwell that lead up into the lobby. From the south end of the central lobby, one could enter into the Faculty Room, where meetings and conferences were held. Connected to the Faculty Room were the private office of the President, the Presidents Secretarys office, and the office of the President&#39;s stenographer. The furniture in these rooms was made of mahogany. Located to the north of the central lobby were a lecture room and the offices of the Department of Education. To the northeast and east were the offices of the Appointment Secretary, the Advisor, Assistant Advisor, Medical Examiner and Professor of Hygiene, and the Director of the University Extension at that time, Professor H. Morse Stephens.</p><br>
<p>On the top floor of the building were the headquarters of the University Press and Editorial Committee, and the Botanical Museum (herbarium), which was brought there to protect it from fire. The attic was fitted with steel bookshelves in 1906, becoming the first on-campus location of the recently acquired Bancroft Library, which had previously been housed in San Francisco.</p><br>
<p>In the basement, one could find the mailing room for University Extension, storage for the Department of Paleontologys collections, and restrooms. The basement is also where the heating and ventilation chambers could be found. This system drew in outside air, filtering it through a fine cloth mesh to remove dust, and was warmed after being passed across the surface of steam coils. The steam was supplied from the universitys central power plant, and was used instead of gas as a fire safety precaution. A large revolving fan pushed the heated air through the ventilation system, with units installed in each of the rooms throughout the entire building. This heating and ventilation system was unique on the campus at that time to California Hall.</p><br>
<h2>Architect</h2><br>
<p>Howard was member to an architectural trend of his time of a search for an authentic, modern "California" style. Previous architects had drawn heavily from Spanish California mission architecture, Stanford University being a prime example of this Mission Revival style. Howard said of California Hall that it was a:</p><br>
<p>free study of modified classic forms without recourse to... columnar orders. An attempt has been made to realize in this building a type of architecture characteristic to Central California.</p><br>
<p>The University Chronicle alluded to the building&#39;s strength and elements of Classical Revival explored by Howard through a parallel with the Greek Parthenon:</p><br>
<p>It can safely be said that no building in the State better represents the most modern and advanced ideas of durable construction. It has been built to be permanent, and will be permanent as the Parthenon has been permanent, and will be used by generations of students hundreds of years hence.</p><br>
<p>Oakley Farm, located at 11865 Sam Snead Highway  in Warm Springs, Virginia, includes the brick house named Oakley that was built starting in 1834, and completed before 1837, as a two-story side-passage form dwelling with a one-story front porch with transitional Federal / Greek Revival detail. It was later expanded and modified to a one-room-deep center passage plan dwelling with a two-story ell.</p><br>
<p>The house was expanded and remodeled to Colonial Revival style during 1921–22, "according to a design apparently conceived by the Staunton architectural firm T. J. Collins and Sons." A two-story kitchen and service wing was added. Also on the property are a contributing laundry and wood house and a garage, both built in 1922; a 19th-century log cabin that may originally have served as a slave cabin; a Long Barn and a machinery shed (ca. 1905); two stables of Colonial Revival</p><br>
<p>design dating to the 1920s or early 1930s; and a fieldstone wall. It includes Federal and Greek Revival architecture. Oakley Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. The listing included ten contributing buildings and five other contributing structures on 60 acre.</p><br>

<p>The Stevens Building is located in San Antonio, Texas. Completed in 1891, architect James Riely Gordon designed the building for local businessman John J. Stevens. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Bexar County, Texas. The structure was designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>Building</h2><br>
<p>The three-story Richardsonian Romanesque Stevens Building at 315 E. Commerce was designed by architect James Riely Gordon for San Antonio businessman John J. Stevens and completed in 1891. The Wagner & Chabot bicycle wholesaler occupied the building for 45 years. Bledsoe Furniture Company was a tenant for 33 years. The University of San Antonio held the lease on the entire third floor for more than half a century.</p><br>
<p>In 1979, a local hospital bought both the Stevens and the Staacke buildings with the intent of razing the structures to convert the property to a hospital parking lot. The San Antonio Conservation Society stepped in to preserve architectural history and purchased both buildings. In 1982, a group of investors bought and restored the two structures. The building&#39;s interior was remodeled for contemporary tenants. Historic photographs were used to restore the exterior as authentically accurate to the original as possible. The facade is detailed with oriel windows, and brick and red granite, finished with carved limestone.</p><br>
<p>Stoney-Baynard Plantation on Hilton Head Island, SC was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. The listing included one contributing site on 6 acre.</p><br>
<p>It has also been known as Baynard Ruins and as Braddocks Point Plantation. The historic site and ruins are located in between Baynard Park Road and Plantation Drive within present day Sea Pines Plantation, a private gated community on the south end of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The site consists of below ground archaeological remains covering an area just under six acres and a series of four ruins. A main house, an overseers house, and a slave house are associated with the Stoney-Baynard Plantation, dating from the first decade of the nineteenth century. A fourth structure was associated with the site&#39;s occupation by Union pickets after the Battle of Port Royal during the Civil War.</p><br>
<p>The archaeological remains are well preserved, with archaeological testing documenting intact sub-surface features and clear horizontal patterning of artifacts. Standing architectural ruins include 2-story portions of the main house, a chimney footing for the overseer&#39;s house, and footings for a tent for the Union Troops.</p><br>
<p>The structures were built in the Georgian Architectural style with tabby foundations and exterior walls.</p><br>
<p>Today the site is incorporated into green spaced land owned by the Sea Pines Community Services Administration Association and is consequently preserved.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1793, Captain Jack Stoney, a Revolutionary War hero, built the Baynard Plantation as part of Braddock&#39;s Point Plantation. Since the Stoney family were the first residents, the home is often referred to as the Stoney-Baynard ruins. It was 1,885 square feet, built of timber and a mixture of oyster shells, lime, and sand, and overlooked the Calibogue Sound.</p><br>
<p>It is unsure exactly how the plantation home was acquired by the Baynard family in 1837, but there are two most likely ways. It is believed that a Stoney heir bet the home during a late-night poker game and lost, or the Stoneys declared bankruptcy and William Baynard acquired the estate from the bank. William Baynard was a very successful cotton planter who occupied the home from 1840 to 1849. After William Baynard&#39;s death, the plantation was raided by Union forces and housed many soldiers during the Civil War. Shortly after the war ended, the home was burned to the ground.</p><br>

<p>The Franklin School is a historic former school building at 7 Stedman Rd. in Lexington, Massachusetts. Built in 1931, it is the only school built by the town in the period of the Great Depression. The Georgian Revival structure was designed by architects Kilham, Hopkins & Greeley. It served as a public school until 1985, when it was converted to the Franklin School Apartments. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Franklin School is set on the east side of Stedman Road, a short road in a residential area of southern Lexington. The school stands at the front of a complex that includes five modern apartment buildings. It is a 2-1/2 story Georgian Revival structure, built out of load-bearing red brick, with a central section flanked on each side by matching 1-1/2 story wings. The roof of the main section is gambreled, with a center gable section that has an octagonal louvered opening at its center. Windows on both levels are groups of sash, organized 5-4-5, separated by the piers that support the gable. The projecting wing sections have groups of three windows facing to the front. The basic layout of the school&#39;s interior has been retained despite its conversion into apartments, which have been carefully fitted into classroom, office, and other spaces, retaining the brick-walled hallways. In the basement the utility areas of the building retain their original function.</p><br>
<p>The school was built in 1931, in response to growth in the town&#39;s population during the 1920s, and was one of the last major construction projects in the town until the 1960s. In 1958 additions were made to this school, but they were removed as part of its apartment conversion.</p><br>
<p>The Schick–Ostolasa Farmstead in Boise, Idaho is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Schick family were German-Russian immigrants to the United States.</p><br>
<p>The listing includes seven contributing buildings: the Schick/Ostolasa farmhouse, Red House, a root cellar, a wood shed, a saddle barn, a horse barn, and a chicken house, and a non-contributing utility shed. A community barn built in 1997 on the location of former lambing sheds is not included in the listed area. The Schick/Ostolasa Farmhouse was built c.1864-1868, and was extended in 1870 and at other times.</p><br>
<p>The farmstead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.</p><br>
<p>The Park Addition School at 1100 Richardson Court in Cheyenne, Wyoming was built in 1921. It was designed by architect Frederick Hutchinson Porter. Due to population growth, an addition was built during the 1947–1949 school year, and the school was renamed "Chaplin School" in the honor of Miss Ruth Chaplin who served as principal from its inception until the 1952–1953 school year. At this point, and due to further growth, the city of Cheyenne made available a portion of Pioneer Park, two blocks from the school, for expansion. The new "Chaplin Annex" was finished in 1953, with another addition built in 1956. Since the new separate annex had grown to at least twice the size of the Park addition, it was renamed "Pioneer Park" school, and an effort to consolidate both schools into the new larger facility ensued. The original Park Addition building was henceforth used for school administrative offices. In 1977 the building and land was sold by the school district to a private owner, and eventually became a day care establishment called "Children&#39;s Choice Childcare Center" in the early 1980s. The Park Addition structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.</p><br>
<p>The African American Military History Museum, also known as East Sixth Street USO Building, located in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, United States, opened to the public on May 23, 2009.

The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004 and was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 2010.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The East Sixth Street USO building was unique in that it was constructed specifically to house an African American USO, shortly after the United States entered World War II, and had support of both Blacks and Whites in Hattiesburg. The structure is a T-shaped wood-frame building. The interior contained an auditorium, stage, lobby, mens and womens restrooms, dressing rooms, meeting rooms, and a central brick chimney. The auditorium measured 34 by. The stage in the auditorium was raised 3 ft above the floor and measured 20 by with dressing rooms on either side.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>USO club</h3><br>
<p>Between 1942 and 1946, the East Sixth Street USO Club served as a home away from home for African American soldiers who were stationed at Camp Shelby. The facility was a place where soldiers could come for recreation, relaxation, and socialization. Examples of services provided at the USO included a library, darkroom, lounge, counseling, music, mail service, religious literature, and sewing service.</p><br>
<h3>Museum</h3><br>
<p>Prior to becoming the African American Military History Museum, the former USO building housed the N.R. Burger Center which served as a museum and community space to commemorate the allegiance of African-American soldiers through displays of historical documents, artifacts, and photographs.</p><br>
<p>Renovation of the USO Building as the African American Military History Museum was completed in 2009. The original USO auditorium was subdivided into venues for historical military exhibits, to include the following:</p><br>
<p>Revolutionary War, Buffalo Soldiers, World War I, World War II, Korean War, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Global War on Terrorism, and Hattiesburg Hall of Honor. Between 2009 and 2012, approximately 13,000 visitors had toured the museum.</p><br>
<h2>Tornado damage</h2><br>
<p>On February 10, 2013, an EF-4 tornado passed through Hattiesburg. During the storm, the roof of the Museum was severely damaged, causing exhibits and artifacts to be soaked by rain. Museum personnel estimated that the structure would be closed for at least one year for restoration and announced that museum artifacts had been relocated to another facility for storage.</p><br>
<p>Following a year of reconstruction, the museum officially reopened on February 6, 2014. Estimates of damage from the tornado were $450,000 to the building and $600,000 to the museum contents.</p><br>
<p>The Odd Fellow Building or Odd Fellows Building, now known as Wolcott Galleria, is a historic building in Casper, Wyoming. It was built in 1952 and designed by architect Jan Wilking of local architectural firm Goodrich & Wilking.

<p>The East Putney Brook Stone Arch Bridge is a historic stone arch bridge in eastern Putney, Vermont. Built in 1902, it is a rare statewide example of a 20th-century stone bridge, and one of a number of such area bridges built by Townshend farmer and mason James Otis Follett. It was listed on the USA National Register of Historic Places in 1976. The bridge is located just west  of the present alignment of River Road, which it formerly carried.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The East Putney Brook Stone Arch Bridge is located in far eastern Putney, about 4 mi northeast of Putney&#39;s village center. East Putney Brook flows from west to east, draining into the Connecticut River about 0.25 mi east of the River Road crossing. The stone bridge stands a short way upstream of the current road alignment, having been bypassed about 1965. The modern road crosses the stream on a metal culvert whose profile resembles the old stone bridge, and a short way downstream the Boston and Maine Railroad crosses the stream on a 19th-century stone arch bridge.</p><br>
<p>The bridge is a single-span arch with a span of about 30 ft, rising 11 ft above the typical water level of the stream. It has a roadbed about 16.5 ft wide, sufficient for only a single modern travel lane. Stone wing walls flare out from all ends of the arch. The arch and other bridge elements are fashioned out of irregular granite blocks and slabs that have been mortared together in irregular courses. The arch spandrels are filled with granite blocks and rubble, with a gravel road surface laid on top.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was built in 1902 by Townshend resident James Otis Follett, and was the first of seven documented bridges and culverts built by Follett for the town of Putney. This bridge, and other surviving bridges built by Follett in Putney and Townshend, represent an unusual concentration of stone craftsmanship in an era when most bridges were being built out of iron and steel.</p><br>
<p>The Humble Oil Building, is a historic office building, designed in the Italian Renaissance architecture style, located at 1212 Main Street in Houston, Texas and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The building complex served as the company headquarters for Humble Oil and Refining Company from 1921 until 1963, when the company moved into what is now the ExxonMobil Building at 800 Bell Street. In 2003, the building complex was renovated for use as a combination hotel and apartments, the apartment section was converted to additional hotel rooms in 2015.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original 9-story structure occupied half of a city block between Main Street and Travis Street, with the front facing Polk Street. This original structure was designed by prominent New York architects Clinton and Russell and cost approximately $1.2 million. It was the largest office building in Houston at the time, containing approximately 196,000 ft&sup2; of space. A 1932 renovation added a central air conditioning system to the building, the first in any Houston office building.</p><br>
<p>Humble Oil and Refining Company expanded the building in 1936 with an adjacent 17-story tower. This expansion was designed by John F. Staub and Kenneth Franzheim. Additional expansions were made in 1940 and 1947; and the complex now contains 529,809 ft&sup2;.</p><br>
<p>In 1997, the building complex was purchased by Historic Restoration Inc., with plans to adapt the buildings into a mixed-use hotel, apartments, and retail space. The plans moved forward in 1999 with a loan from the City of Houston in the amount of $4.6 million in order to encourage the development. The plans were completed in 2003 and the building opened as a Courtyard by Marriott hotel, a Residence Inn hotel, and the Humble Tower apartments.

<p>The Gately Building is a historic commercial building at 337–353 Main Street  in downtown Pawtucket, Rhode Island The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012. In 2015, the property was renovated into a 13-unit apartment building.</p><br>
<h2>Style</h2><br>
<p>The three-story flatiron building was built in 1914 to fill in a triangular lot on the fringe of the city&#39;s central business district. It has a flat roof, a steel frame, and is clad in brick with granite and marble trim, with a granite foundation and cast iron fronts on the first floor. Its Colonial Revival styling dates to alterations in the 1930s converting its ground-floor retail spaces into a single banking center. The floor space is about 5,000 square feet on each floor. Large windows surround the building on all sides.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was commissioned by Anne E. Gately (b. 1854), heiress to the Gately furniture and clothing store. She purchased the building which previously stood on this lot, had it demolished, and the current building constructed. Architect Albert H. Humes was superintendent of construction, although it is not known if he also designed the building. Pawtucket Architect Samuel B Fuller designed the building.</p><br>
<p>When it was opened in 1914, the ground floor was home to four street-level storefronts. By 1935, the Old Colony Cooperative Bank occupied the entire first floor. The building also contained offices of The Providence Journal newspaper and a dental office; the latter being the building&#39;s longest tenant, from 1941 to 1986.</p><br>
<p>The building stood vacant and neglected from 1993 to 2015, slowly deteriorating and becoming a detriment to neighborhood development.</p><br>
<h3>Conversion to residences</h3><br>
<p>In 2015, money from the state&#39;s 2012 affordable housing bond was used to convert the building to a housing complex with 13 rental units and community space. The renovation restored the building to its original historic appearance. In September 2016, the building was praised by Governor Gina Raimondo and Mayor Donald Grebien as a successful example of how affordable housing bonds can revitalize neighborhoods and create jobs.</p><br>

<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>According to Phoebe L. Hopkins of the Berks County Conservancy, who was involved in preparing the June 1984 application to the National Register for creation of the Tulpehocken Creek Historic District, this district "is significant as the original settlement area of Western Berks County. Not only was it the destination of the German community that transplanted itself from Schoharie, New York to Pennsylvania in the 1720s, but it was the pathway they followed, the last leg of their water route via the Susquehanna and Swatara and Tulpehocken to their ultimate home."</p><br>
<p>"It has been written that the Tulpehocken Settlement of 1723-1729 marked the beginning of one of the great population movements in Colonial America - the German migration to Pennsylvania. The original Tulpehocken settlers had formerly been part of a group of some 4000 Palatine Germans who colonized New York State under Governor Hunter in 1710. Unable to carry out the impractical plan of producing tar for the Queen&#39;s Navy to pay their passage, or later to acquire land titles to farmland in the Schoharie Valley, a good portion of the Schoharie Community traveled to Tulpehocken in groups of fifteen to fifty families."</p><br>
<p>Many were led to the Tulpehocken by Conrad Weiser, a Pennsylvania Dutch pioneer, interpreter and diplomat between the Pennsylvania Colony and Native Americans. Also according to Hopkins, the boundaries of the district were decided upon by planners for several reasons:</p><br>
<p>"The Berks/Lebanon County line was chosen as the western border because it reflects the limit of the Berks County Conservancy survey and is an easily understood historical boundary established in 1752.... The Blue Marsh Lake was designated as the eastern edge of the district because this also is easily identified and because the damming of the creek greatly changed the area, flooding many historic sites which bordered the stream."</p><br>
<p>The Tulpehocken Creek Historic District was subsequently listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>Notable buildings</h2><br>
<p>The Tulpehocken Historic District is made up of 152 contributing buildings, one contributing site, and four contributing structures related to development along upper Tulpehocken Creek, including:</p><br>
<p>Log cabins from the early settlement period (1723-1750), such as the -story center chimney cabins built by Godfrey Fidler and Frederick Reed</p><br>
<p>Reed&#39;s Cemetery (1723)</p><br>
<p>Christ Little Tulpehocken Church (original log church built in 1730, present church built in 1809)</p><br>
<p>Charming Forge (1749-1895), an iron-making community which became the most important industrial site along the Tulpehocken, which includes a Georgian mansion built by George Ege (1784)</p><br>
<p>Christ Lutheran Church (original log church built in 1743, present church built in 1786)</p><br>
<p>18th and 19th century farm complexes built in the Germanic style, including five stone and five log houses (1753-1797), one log and nine stone barns, and gristmills; and</p><br>
<p>Buildings related to the development and operation of the Union Canal (1827-1884).</p><br>

<p>The Charnwood Residential Historic District is a 59.5 acre historic district in Tyler, Texas that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. It includes works dating from 1870. It includes works designed by Barber & Klutz, James Hubbell and Herbert M. Greene of the firm Hubbell & Greene, and other architects in Tudor Revival , Colonial Revival , and other styles.</p><br>
<p>The listed area covers about 15 blocks of Tyler. The NRHP listing included 166 contributing buildings and 42 contributing structures.</p><br>
<p>In 1999, the district was deemed to be:worthy of preservation as the largest concentration of the widest range of mid-19th to mid-20 century resources in Tyler, developed through a complex network of family, business and neighbor relationships as well as by investor and speculator efforts. Representative of local community development patterns over a 110 year period, the district forms the core of a larger area, to the north, west and south that share similar patterns, but include less diverse resources dating from the 1880s to the early 1940s. As such the Chamwood Residential Historic District is a highly visual and important local landmark that documents the relationship between changing economics and development patterns and provides interpretation of social, and architectural trends in Tyler between c. 1870 and 1950 linking the city&#39;s heritage with the present.</p><br>
<p>Houses in the district include ones designed by Barber & Kluttz (although the NRHP register does not indicate which were its works), Hubbell & Greene, and other architects.</p><br>
<h2>Hand-Mayfield-Hunt House and Servants&#39; Quarters</h2><br>
<p>One of the contributing properties is the Hand-Mayfield-Hunt House and Servants&#39; Quarters, at 223 East Charnwood. The house, probably built in 1861, is one of the oldest houses in the historic district. It was originally built as a private school plus a residence, in one frame building. In 1899 it was remodelled extensively into Classical Revival style, with a painted brick veneer, a two-story projecting portico supported by square columns, a balustrade, and a hipped roof. A portion of the structure was used by the 1853-founded Eastern Texas Female College, also known as Tyler Female Seminary, and later used by the Charnwood Institute. In 1999 the house was in operation as a bed and breakfast named Charnwood Hill Inn.</p><br>
<p>The property includes a servants&#39; quarters duplex, built perhaps around 1875, which "probably housed domestic employees during the 19th and early</p><br>
<p>20th century. In 1932 Isabel Mayfield, a daughter of J. B. and Hattie Mayfield, occupied it. No occupants are shown in 1934-35, when it was likely used again as servants quarters. This dwelling is the only surviving 19th century example of a servants quarters in the district, and because of its duplex form is a locally rare type. It is significant for those reasons and for its place in providing auxiliary housing in the district to working class residents whose work and lives are somewhat invisible.</p><br>
<p>In 2021 the property was known as Hand-Mayfield-Hunt House and was the location of Historic Tyler Inc.&#39;s annual Candlelight Party.</p><br>
<p>The Harshaville Covered Bridge is a historic covered bridge spanning the Cherry Fork Creek at Harshaville, Adams County, Ohio, United States. Built in 1855, it is a Burr truss bridge with a 110-foot span. It has sheet metal siding, a metal roof and stone abutments. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<p>The Ohio Historic Places Dictionary has described it as "an outstanding example" of a Burr truss bridge. The name reflects the community, which was named for the Harsha family that built a mill there. In the summer of 1863, in a campaign known as Morgan&#39;s Raid, raiders from the Confederate States Army led by John Hunt Morgan ransacked the Harshaville general store and burned many bridges, but spared the Harshaville Covered Bridge.</p><br>
<p>In June 2010, the Ohio Department of Transportation received a $100,000 grant from the Federal Highway Administration to rehabilitate the bridge. The County planned to replace the bridges metal siding with historically correct wood siding and to replace the metal roof and failed backwall. Tom Cross, executive director of the Adams County Travel and Visitors Bureau, noted, "Once this work is completed, this bridge will look like new."</p><br>
<p>The Walnut Hill Plantation cotton gin house was built in the mid to late 1840s by Alonzo T. Mial, a prominent planter and commission merchant in 19th century North Carolina. It is one of a few surviving cotton gin houses in the state, and is likely the only one to have retained the majority of its original ginning equipment.</p><br>
<p>The gin house is a -story-tall, hand-hewn timber frame structure, approximately 36 ft wide and 56 ft deep. The frontmost two-thirds of the structure is supported by tall, 2 ft thick granite ashlar pillars that form a square, open-air space on the ground floor in which the mule track and power shaft were located. The rear third of the gin house rests on short, granite rubble piers, and housed the ground-floor pressing and packaging rooms. Most of the ginning equipment resided on the second floor of the gin house. The third floor was used for storage of baled cotton.</p><br>
<p>The gin was originally powered by two to four mules hitched to horizontal sweeps that turned the vertical power shaft. The power shaft was connected to a series of cog wheels that ultimately transferred power to the leather belt that drove the gin. In 1875, Mial replaced the mules with a 15-horsepower steam engine, which considerably increased the gins production capacity. The gin house received a number of other upgrades as ginning technology progressed over the following fifty years. The Walnut Hill cotton gin ceased operation in the mid-1930s, shortly after the death of Millard Mial, Alonzo T. Mials oldest son.</p><br>
<h2>Renovation</h2><br>
<p>Architect Jim Smith, of HagerSmith Design, PA in Raleigh, and his wife purchased the gin house in 1992 and spent the following decade stabilizing the structure to halt its deterioration. Between 2003 and 2005, they renovated the gin house and converted it to a private residence, where they have lived since. Their work won them an AIA North Carolina Design Merit award in 2011.</p><br>

<h2>Oaky Grove Methodist Church</h2><br>
<p>Oaky Grove Methodist Church was founded in the 1830s and was originally located on land belonging to the Oaky Grove Plantation about a mile to the north of the present structure. The church building that survives today was constructed in 1876 by contractor W. S. Walden using materials from Thomas A. Briggs&#39;s store in Raleigh. The pointed-arch frames of the windows and front door make it one of the earliest gothic revival churches in the county.</p><br>
<p>The small cemetery situated directly behind the church was not the official burial ground for church members. Instead, it hold the remains of several people who relocated to the area from Wilkes County, North Carolina in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.</p><br>
<h2>Frog Pond Academy</h2><br>
<p>Frog Pond Academy was the name given to the small plantation school by the children who studied there, in honor of the multitude of frogs that are said to have inhabited the puddles around the school after a heavy rain. Located a few hundred yards west of Grove Methodist Church and immediately south of the Mial-Williamson Farm house, the school consists of two rooms, each with its own front door, with a large granite chimney anchoring the east end of the structure. Alonzo T. Mial built the school in the 1860s for his own children, as well as others in the surrounding community, but it is unknown for how long the school was actually in use. With the exception of a twelve-year period during which it served as an office for the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station, the schoolhouse has been used as a tenant dwelling for most of the past century.</p><br>
<h2>Joseph Blake House</h2><br>
<p>The Joseph Blake House is situated in an open grove of large hardwood trees on the southwest corner of the intersection of Mial Plantation and Smithfield Roads. It was originally built in the 1860s by Joseph Blake, son of the founding pastor of Oaky Grove Methodist Church and half-brother of Alonzo T. Mial. All but one room of the original house burned in the late 1800s; the house seen today was constructed soon thereafter on the same foundation. The Doric columns on the front porch and the ornate front door are said to have been salvaged from older homes in Raleigh that were being demolished.</p><br>
<p>In addition to farming, Joseph Blake also served several terms as county surveyor starting in 1884. His office, a one-room wood frame building, sits to the northwest of the main house. It was constructed around 1870 and features a hip roof, brick chimney, and a single door and window.</p><br>
