<p>Eau Claire Town Hall and Survey Publishing Company Building is a building that was built for the Survey Publishing Company. Later it was the Eau Claire Town Hall. In 1979, it was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was started in 1912 and completed in 1914. It was first occupied by the Survey Publishing Company that published the American Lutheran Survey. The editor was Walton H. Greever, who was also a faculty member at the nearby Lutheran seminary. After the Survey folded, the building became the Eau Claire Town Hall from 1928 to 1955. In 1955, Eau Claire merged with the City of Columbia.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by J. Carroll Johnson of Urquhart and Johnson in Columbia. The building is a two-story brick building with asymmetrical plan. It is decorated with tile and decorative concrete. It features a four-story tower on the southeast corner. The building has five arched bays on the east and west sides and two on the south side. There is also a one-story, brick building that was used for the printing plant.</p><br>
<p>The Evans-Russell House is a Neo-Classical Revival house in Spartanburg, South Carolina that was built for Governor John Gary Evans in 1901. Later, it was the home of Senator Donald S. Russell. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in 1901 for former Governor Evans. It remained his home until his death in 1942. It was purchased by a Spartanburg judge, Jennings L. Thompson. He sold the house to Donald Russell, who was governor of South Carolina from 1963 to 1965 and USA senator from 1965 to 1966. It remained his home until his death in 1998.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>

<p>The Fountain Fox Beattie House, the home of Greenville Woman&#39;s Club from 1950 to 2014, is a historic house in Greenville, South Carolina. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built c. 1834 on East North Street by merchant and banker Fountain Fox Beattie for his bride, Emily Edgeworth. Originally the house had a simple design, two rooms on each floor with a separate kitchen behind the house. Beattie prospered even during Reconstruction, and generations of his family continued to live in the house well into the 20th century. Probably in the 1880s, the Beatties added one-story wings and an elaborately columned porch with Italianate brackets. After the death of Mrs. John Beattie in 1938, the family rented out the house. In 1946, when the house stood in the way of street widening and was slated for demolition, Greenville club women asked the city to buy and preserve the house as their meeting place. The house was moved to a new street, named Beattie Place, and rented to the Woman&#39;s Club for a dollar a year. When Beattie Place also became a busy thoroughfare, the house was moved once again in 1983 to a site off Bennett Street.</p><br>
<p>In 2014, citing declining membership, the Greenville Woman&#39;s Club disbanded, and ownership of the historic house reverted to the city of Greenville. The city negotiated with Black Knight International, a development group owned by Marc Player, son of professional golfer Gary Player, which planned to repurpose the building into office space. After Black Knight declined to buy the house, the city agreed to sell the house (with a preservation easement) to Greenvillians Ryan and Jori Magg, who reconvert meeting and event space back into living area.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The two-story structure has one-story wings. The roof on the central portion is flat except for a small central gable. The wings have a flat, balustraded roof. There is a one-story piazza supported by six pairs of columns. These form three large and two smaller arches. The main entrance is a set of double doors.</p><br>
<p>The Eddleman–McFarland House, sometimes known as the Ball–Eddleman–McFarland House or just the McFarland House, is a historic residence built in 1899 in the Quality Hill section of Fort Worth, Texas.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house on the bluff above the Trinity River was built in 1899 in the area then known as Quality Hill. This neighborhood contained many of the large Victorian homes of the "Cattle Baron Families", few of which are still standing. Howard Messer designed the house for Sarah Ball, who died within five years of the houses construction. William Eddleman, founder of the Western National Bank, then bought the house. His daughter, Carrie McFarland, lived in the house until her death in 1978. Eddlemans bank was founded in 1906 and failed in 1913.</p><br>
<p>The Junior League of Fort Worth bought the house in 1979 and it was later acquired by Historic Fort Worth, Inc. It is open for tours and available for rentals.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The exterior of the house is constructed of brick, sandstone, and marble in the Victorian and Queen Anne styles. In the interior are mainly mahogany and oak mantles, cornices, coffered ceilings, paneling and parquet floors.</p><br>
<p>The San Miguel Chapel Site is an archeological site in Ventura, California, United States, at the location of the first outpost and center of operations that was established while the first Mission San Buenaventura was being constructed. The San Miguel Chapel was located just outside the southwest corner of the walled garden that was constructed as part of the ultimate layout of the mission complex. The open space park is located at the southwest corner of Thompson Boulevard and Palm Street in downtown Ventura. Interpretative signs and public art have been added to the site, which is protected and managed as a natural environment by the city parks department.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The site was excavated, beginning in 1974, by students from Moorpark College who uncovered rock foundations, the aqueduct that served the mission compound, and portions of a painted wall. As the city began to acquire the site in 1975, the City Council endorsed the application for the site to be placed on the national register and designated this site "Historic Point of Interest Number 16." The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. In 1997, the Historic Preservation Alliance of San Buenaventura put the site on a list of the top ten most endangered historical sites, stating it "sits locked up, fenced off and overgrown".</p><br>
<p>A nearby 2007 archaeological dig, uncovered a portion of the wall foundation as expected from historical surveys and maps. The mission orchard wall was built with large stones, some 40 to 50 pounds. The dig, performed before new apartments were built, found artifacts from many periods including Ventura County&#39;s first courthouse and jail, and its first hospital. The dig also revealed signs of the long history of human settlement in the area around the mission such as beads made of shells harvested from the nearby ocean.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Archaeological discoveries in the area suggest that humans have populated the region for at least 10,000-12,000 years. Nearby Shisholop Village was the site of a Chumash village believed to have been a provincial capital. Archaeological records show that the village was settled sometime around 1000 A.D. They launched plank-built boats called Tomols that sailed to the Channel Islands. The village site, located where Figueroa Street meets the ocean at Seaside Park, was designated Historic Point of Interest #18 by the city.</p><br>
<p>"Coast Live Oak Tree, Historic Landmark Number 96," is a mature Quercus agrifolia designated by City Council resolution on March 27, 2006. Located at the southwest corner of the chapel site, the tree is the largest of its species within the City of Ventura and estimated to be 160 to 200 years old. Lying along the commemorative route connecting the California missions, El Camino Real, a mission bell marker has been erected here.</p><br>
<p>Hagood Mill is an operational water-powered gristmill built  in 1845 by James Hagood near Pickens, South Carolina. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Hagood Mill is located on Hagood Branch, earlier known as Jennings Creek, a tributary of the Twelve Mile River. Although mills had existed on the site as early as the 1790s, the current mill was built in 1845 by James Hagood; and it remained in the Hagood family and continued to operate until 1966 when federal regulations requiring the testing of corn before grinding effectively ended the operations of commercial grist mills in Pickens County. During the historic period the mill and the neighboring (non-extant) store were a gathering place for county residents.</p><br>
<p>The mill and surrounding property were donated to the Pickens Country Museum in 1973. The water wheel and mechanical components of the mill were rebuilt in the mid-1970s using much of the surviving fabric, and they were restored again by local historian and miller Alan Warner in the 1990s.</p><br>
<p>The 1845 mill is an unpainted, two-story building constructed of hand hewn logs and covered with clapboard siding. Its original dam site is 1,650 feet above it, where water from the creek was diverted to an earthen headrace (essentially a ditch). Today, water is pumped underground from the creek to the headrace, the last 80 feet of which is wooden. The overshot wooden water wheel, which produces 22 horsepower, is 20 ft in diameter and 4 feet wide. The ring gear is 18 feet in diameter, and the two granite millstones weigh approximately 1,600 pounds each.</p><br>
<h2>Hagood Mill Historic Site & Folklife Center</h2><br>
<p>The mill is the centerpiece of the Hagood Mill Historic Site & Folklife Center, which also includes two historic cabins, a blacksmith shop, a moonshine still, and a cotton gin. The site also includes the Hagood Creek Petroglyph Site, which preserves significant Native American rock carvings, and the 64-foot (20 m) steel Prater&#39;s Creek Bridge, built by the Greenville Steel and Foundry Company in 1930 and brought to the site in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The Green Bay Road Bridge is a Pratt pony truss bridge across the Manitowoc River in Manitowoc Rapids.

<p>The Nathan Cooper Gristmill is a historic gristmill on the Black River located at 66 NJ Route 24 in Chester Township, Morris County, New Jersey. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 21, 1976 for its significance in industry.</p><br>
<p>Since 1973, the Morris County Park Commission has owned and operated the mill and its 14 surrounding acres as a historic site.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>18th century</h3><br>
<p>Circa the 1760s, county judge Isaiah Younglove constructed a no-longer-extant mill on the Black River. Youngloves mill began flour milling production on the site. Images of America: Chester claims Youngloves mill burned down in an unspecified year, while the Morris County Park Commission describes his endeavor as having shut down in 1788. The mill then went through several owners before 1825. The last owner prior to the Coopers was Elias Howell.</p><br>
<h3>19th century heyday</h3><br>
<p>In 1825, retired general Nathan Cooper (1751–1834) purchased the 4.5 acres of land for $750. This included "a milldam, sawmill, an old gristmill, and water wheel." This was an addition to his wealth, as he too had the ownership of over 1600 acres of land including multiple mines under Cooper, Hewitt, & Co.</p><br>
<p>The following year, Cooper rebuilt the mill, constructing a four-story random fieldstone gristmill to replace the 1760s structure. The new building employed the use of "four sets of millstones connected by elevators to grain cleaners and flour sifters." These incorporated the designs of American inventor Oliver Evans. The mill could grind up to 10 tons per day of wheat, corn, and other grains. Also in 1826, Nathan Cooper gave the property to his adult nephew, Nathan A. Cooper, who had become a NJ cavalry general 2 years before.</p><br>
<p>In 1827 and 1829, Nathan Cooper "raised the height of the dam as it stood."</p><br>
<p>Nathan A. Cooper commissioned a house to be constructed nearby for his son, Abram W. Cooper (1848–1933) as a wedding present.</p><br>
<p>In the 1870s, the Coopers installed modern turbines to replace the original wooden waterwheels.</p><br>
<p>Upon Nathan A. Cooper&#39;s 1879 death, Abram W. Cooper (one of his nine children) inherited ownership of the mill. Abram W. Cooper was described contemporaneously as a man whose "life had been quiet and uneventful, but upright and honorable...devoted to his business interests and the requirements of citizenship."</p><br>
<p>Later, Nathan A. Cooper (1802–1879) inherited this mill when his uncle Nathan died.</p><br>
<p>In the 1880s, Milltown experienced bustling economic success, and the Cooper mill "played a key role in the community and the region&#39;s industrial development." The mill shared Main Street with "a blacksmith shop, a general store, a tavern...and the Mountain Spring Distillery, a cider mill." The Coopers used their growing wealth to build family mansions in nearby Chester.</p><br>
<p>The mill continued to grind grain into flour until 1913.</p><br>
<h3>20th century</h3><br>
<p>On January 31, 1913, the Milltown general store across the street burned down in a fire. The same year, the mill ceased to operate. In an unknown year, the Old Mill Tavern pub was built atop the site of the Milltown general store.</p><br>
<h3>Museum conversion</h3><br>
<p>In 1973, the Morris County Park Commission acquired the mill. After the acquisition, the mill was restored and Abram Coopers home was converted into a Visitors Center. The site opened to the public in October 1978. Visitors of the mill museum take home "stone-ground flour and cornmeal produced at the Gristmill."</p><br>
<p>After its acquisition in 1973, the Morris County Park Commission converted the Abram Cooper home into a Visitors&#39; Center. The mill has since been kept in operating condition, being preserved as it was in the 1880s "with some updates" including the addition of electricity and a new water wheel. Its current wheel is an "all-steel-Fitz Company waterwheel" from 1927.</p><br>
<p>During Hurricane Irene in 2011, multiple local rivers flooded including the Black River. However, the mill was left undamaged due to its strategic elevated placement to avoid flooding, a feature of most historic mills.</p><br>
<p>In 2010, it was New Jersey&#39;s only restored water-powered mill. This claim was falsified by the 2020 restoration of the Red Mill in Clinton, New Jersey.</p><br>
<p>The Friends of Fosterfields and Cooper Gristmill, a non-profit organization, contributes money and expertise to run the mill. It is open April through October and offers several educational programs and summer camps.</p><br>
<p>The Baker Building, also known as Baker&#39;s Opera House, in Dover, Morris County, New Jersey, United States, is a historic theater built of brick in the mid-1880s. Built in the Eclectic style, it has three stories plus a tower. On the north side facing Blackwell Street, there are recessed brick panels, granite lintels and window sills, and a granite panel reading "Baker Building." A Mail Pouch Tobacco sign covers the south side of the building.</p><br>
<p>The "Opera House" was built by William Henry Baker as a vaudeville theater. The grand opening was on April 5, 1886, with the Alfa Norman English Opera Company performing The Bobetuian Girl. On April 6 the same company performed The Mikado. Tickets cost $1.00 to $1.50. Later fare included other Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas, magic shows and minstrel shows featuring Arthur Deming. In 1906 the theater was thoroughly reconstructed and started showing silent films along with vaudeville performances after it reopened on December 5, 1906.</p><br>
<p>The renovation cost $75,000 and included many plaster ornaments and friezes. Movies started at 7 P.M. with five vaudeville acts started at 8 P.M. with both shows accompanied by a seven piece orchestra. After W. H. Baker died in 1910 his son Henry O. Baker took over the business closing it for another reconstruction and fireproofing in 1924. It reopened with 1,600 seats on December 22, 1924. Stanley Fabian later took over the theater, which showed its first talking picture, On Trial on March 18, 1929.</p><br>
<p>Stars who have visited the theater or appeared on the stage include Al St. John, Buster Keaton, Pearl White, DeWolf Hopper, Helen Hayes, Lillian Russell, Ethel Barrymore and Abbott and Costello.</p><br>
<p>The building was nearly demolished in 1977 before its purchase by the Morris County Trust for Historic Preservation. It was then listed on the New Jersey registry of historic sites and in 1981 on the National Register of Historic Places for its significance in architecture, commerce, and theater.</p><br>
<p>The Presidio Chapel of San Elizario  was built in 1877 at the same place where an earlier Mexican chapel stood. The building is located in the central square of San Elizario, 17.5 miles south-southeast of El Paso. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. It is an example of the Spanish Colonial style.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The chapel provided the religious needs of a presidio or an outpost of military personnel. The presidio was moved to the present site in 1790, to protect travelers and settlers along the Camino Real (Royal Highway) which ran from Mexico City through Paso del Norte to Santa Fe. Its close proximity to the Ysleta and Socorro missions also provided protection for them.</p><br>
<p>When Mexico became independent from Spain in 1821, the military presence at the presidio decreased. In 1829, the chapel was destroyed by the flood of the Rio Grande. Another chapel was built to replace the lost one. During the Mexican–American War, after San Elizario was occupied by the United States, volunteers from California were stationed at the presidio to prevent the re-occupation. Since 1850, American troops were stationed. By the 1870s, the old chapel proved inadequate, and the present structure was completed in 1877. The exterior appearance has changed very little since then. In 1935, the chapel was badly damaged by fire and subsequently rebuilt.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The church is one of the late examples of the adobe architecture in West Texas and reflects European influences on the Spanish Colonial style. It has plastered adobe walls and is painted white.</p><br>

In 1907, the first fire station was torn down to make room for the second station built in the same location in 1908. When the Terry St./11th firehouse was designed (currently Longmont Fire Station #1), the front was designed to mimic the front of the fire house on 4th/Coffman. Because of this design, the new fire house was able to house the early 1900 fire pole and bell once used to get early firefighters from the second floor to the street level.</p><br>
