<p>The United States Highway 61 Arch is an arch which crosses USA Route 61  at the Arkansas–Missouri state line, between Blytheville, Arkansas and Steele. The concrete horseshoe arch reads "Entering Arkansas" on one side and "Entering Missouri" on the other. The Mississippi County, Arkansas Road Improvement District built the arch in 1924 after paving the highway; it erected a similar arch over the highway at the Crittenden County line, but the other arch was removed in the 1950s. At the time, the highway was called the North–South Road, and it was already a major route between St. Louis, Missouri and Memphis, Tennessee; the next year, it was designated as part of US 61. The arch is the only archway over a USA Highway in Arkansas.</p><br>
<p>The arch was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 28, 2001.</p><br>

The house and garden were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Felsengarten is located south of the village center of Bethlehem, at the southern end of Lewis Hill Road. It occupies a parcel about 15 acre in size on a southeast-facing hillside. The house stands on a level area carved out of the hillside with a retaining wall behind it. It is a wood-frame structure, with an exterior finished in wooden shingles and a foundation of local rubblestone. Stylistically the exterior is reminiscent of Dutch Colonial Revival architecture, with hip-roofed dormers on each roof face. The interior has only been modestly altered, mainly to add some electrical service and plumbing. It now houses an extensive collection of books and papers of Theodore Thomas, and the gardens laid out by him and his wife are still to be discerned in the landscape.</p><br>
<p>The property was developed by Theodore and Rose Thomas between 1896 and 1900 as a summer retreat. Thomas, a German immigrant, founded the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and introduced a wide swath of the classical music repertoire to the American public. His wife, well known in Chicago society before their marriage, wrote two books about the couple&#39;s time at Felsengarten.</p><br>
<p>The Goodall-Woods Law Office is an historic former office building on United States Route 302 in Bath, New Hampshire. The modest two-story brick building, now a private residence, was built in 1816 by Ira Goodall, and is an unusual local example of Federal architecture. It is particularly distinctive for its two-story rounded bay, which projects from the front . The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former Goodall-Woods Law Office building is located in Bath&#39;s Upper Village, on the east side of US 302. It is a small 2-1/2 story brick structure, with a gabled roof set perpendicular to the road. Its street facade is a single bay wide, consisting of a rounded projection housing two windows on each floor. It is topped by a semi-conical roof that has a wooden balustrade, and there is a brick chimney sandwiched between the projection and the main block. The main block is three bays deep, with the main entrance in the rightmost bay on the north side, slightly askew from a symmetrical placement. It is topped by a half-round transom window with a granite keystone at the top. Ground-floor windows are set in rectangular openings with stone lintels, while the upper-floor windows are butted against the roof eave at the top.</p><br>
<p>The structure was built in 1816 by Ira Goodall. At the time of its National Register listing in 1980, most of the distinctive front bay&#39;s brickwork and mortar were original, as were the decorative woodwork elements, which were carved to fit its curve. The bricks for the house were locally made, and those for the rounded section were custom-moulded for the purpose.</p><br>
<p>The James River Steam Brewery Cellars are a historic series of brewery-related tunnels near the Rocketts Landing development on the James River in Henrico County, Virginia. The stone-lined barrel-vaulted tunnels were built c. 1866, and are the only surviving remains of the James River Steam Brewery, which operated on the site between 1866 and 1879. The brewery was owned by David G. Yuengling, Jr., son of David Yuengling, the founder of the Yuengling brewery in Pennsylvania, and two business partners. At its height, the brewery complex included a beer garden and park that remained popular even after the brewery closed in 1879. Most of the brewery&#39;s buildings were destroyed by fire in 1891. The walls of the surviving tunnels are lined with dressed ashlar granite. The west walls, which have tunnel openings, are overgrown; only small portions of the north and south walls are visible above ground.</p><br>
<p>The tunnels were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>

<p>The Administration Building at Randolph Air Force Base is headquarters for the 12th Flying Training Wing and located at Universal City, northeast of San Antonio, county of Bexar, in the USA state of Texas. The building is referred to as the Taj Mahal, or simply the Taj. It is Building 100 on the base, and was erected in 1931 at a cost of $252,027.50. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>Design and construction</h2><br>
<p>Basic design and layout of Randolph Field (renamed Randolph Air Force Base in 1948), Clark&#39;s draft for the central building combined all administrative functions under one roof, including the water tower with a rotating beacon on the top. He later donated his drawings to the Library of Congress. Atlee B. Ayres and his son Robert M. Ayres were hired to draft the construction plans. The $252,027.50 facility designated as Building 100 was completed on July 15, 1931, and opened on October 5, 1931. Its iconic design is one of the great early Art Deco efforts in the United States.</p><br>
<h2>Features</h2><br>
<p>Building 100 has been headquarters for the 12th Flying Training Wing since 1972. The two-story facility, with one-story wings on both sides, was designed with space for 22 offices on the ground floor, nine offices in the basement, and 18 offices on the second story. Floors and stairways were constructed of granite terrazzo. The base printing and photography needs were handled out of the building, and it also served as the mail processing center. Courtroom facilities were incorporated into the original design, and legal proceedings continue to be part of the building&#39;s usage. The 902nd Mission Support Group Office of the Staff Judge Advocate operates on the first floor of the Taj.</p><br>
<p>The building was nicknamed the Taj Mahal in its early years, due to what some thought was an architectural similarity to the Taj Mahal in India, and is commonly referred to as "the Taj". It has been featured in movies such as West Point of the Air, Air Cadet and I Wanted Wings. A detailed 15 by replica of the Taj has sometimes been shown at military conventions. Carved from a block of wood in 1984 by base military retirees, the replica has a working electrical light beacon.</p><br>
<h3>Water tank tower</h3><br>
<p>The facility encompasses its most notable feature, a 170 ft enclosed water tank. Clarks concept of incorporating the water tank into the buildings architecture was aesthetically pleasing, but also was designed to eliminate its possibility of being the aviation hazard it might have been were it a stand-alone structure. Radio antennas and a climate detector on the dome supported the communications office headquartered in the building. The base water system is contained within the 500,000 USgal tank which rests on an independent foundation inside the central octagon tower. The removable concrete walls of the tower are designed for tank maintenance. Topping the tower is a light beacon resting on a dome with a mosaic chevron design of blue and gold. An interior elevator leads to an observation deck at the bottom of the dome. Beneath the water tank is the Clark Rotunda, which features four murals painted by William Dean Fausett in 1942–1944 to represent the training cadets of that era.</p><br>
<h3>Theater and memorial monument</h3><br>
<p>The base theater is located in the rear of the building and was designed to seat 1,200 people. It hosted the world premiere of I Wanted Wings, which had been filmed at Randolph. Its original design had an orchestra pit below the stage. In 2012, the theater was operating at a loss and stopped showing 35 mm film. At that time it underwent a renovation as a 772-seat auditorium, and in 2013 was renamed in honor of Brigadier General Kenneth Raymond Fleenor who had been held captive and tortured for over 5 years in North Vietnam. After his repatriation, he spent the remaining years of his military service at Randolph as Base Commander and in other positions of authority.</p><br>
<p>On March 4, 1977, the Missing Man Monument by sculptor Mark Pritchett was installed in front of Building 100 by the San Antonio chapter of the Red River Valley Fighter Pilots to commemorate combat fatalities in Southeast Asia. Both the monument and the theater are part of events related to veterans, combat fatalities, prisoners of war and those missing in action.</p><br>

<p>The Brackett House is an historic house on High Ridge Road, a private road off Valley Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. Erected in 1915 for a prominent academic sociologist and his philanthropist wife, it is an architecturally eclectic Colonial Revival summer house. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Brackett House is located in a rural area of eastern Dublin, occupying a spot at the top of a north–south ridge that affords fine views of Mount Monadnock to the west and the hills of Peterborough to the east. It is located on the west side of High Ridge Road, a private lane providing access to the ridge. It is a wood-frame structure, presenting 1½ stories to the road, and 2½ to the west because of the steeply sloping terrain. Its form is that of an L-shaped Colonial Revival house, but it is covered by a roof that is hipped on the main block and gabled on the ell, that extends further than normal for the form. The eaves are supported by large decoratively cut brackets, giving the building the flavor of an alpine chateau. A side porch has balustrades with a square pattern suggestive of Japanese design influence.</p><br>
<p>The architecturally eclectic house was built in 1915 as the summer residence of Jeffrey Richardson Brackett and Susan K. Brackett. Jeffrey Brackett was a sociologist who taught at Johns Hopkins University and at Simmons College. Susan Brackett left the nearby MacDowell Colony a major endowment in 1931. The family also owned the Ivory Perry Homestead, located in the valley to the west, and occupied both properties until about 1959.</p><br>
<p>The Osgood Ditch is a 9.2 mi section of mining ditch located in southern Josephine County, Oregon, and northern Del Norte County, California. The ditch supplied water from the East Fork of the Illinois River to the High Gravel and Cameron mines, two hydraulic mines that conducted placer gold mining operations in the Upper Illinois Valley. The ditch was dug around 1900, at the same time that the High Gravel Mine was built. It took its name from F.H. Osgood, who purchased the mine shortly after its construction and expanded the ditch. When the Cameron Mine began hydraulic operations in the 1910s, the ditch brought water to that mine as well. The ditch was last used in 1942, after which point both mines had shut down.</p><br>
<p>The ditch was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 4, 2001.</p><br>

<p>The Deweyville Swing Bridge, also known as Deweyville-Starks Swing Bridge and Sabine River Bridge, is a swing bridge which carries Texas State Highway 12 and Louisiana Highway 12 across the Sabine River at the Texas-Louisiana border. The bridge connects Deweyville, Texas to rural Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, near the community of Starks. The Texas Highway Department and Louisiana Highway Commission built the bridge as a joint effort in 1936–38; the two highway departments used federal funding from Depression-era relief programs to complete the project. The bridge was one of four federally funded bridges between Texas and Louisiana built during the Great Depression. The swing bridge design, in which the center section of the bridge can rotate, allowed a variety of boats to pass by on the swift river. The bridge is the oldest surviving swing bridge of its design in Texas and one of three such bridges in the state.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 8, 2011.</p><br>

<p>The Citizens State Bank is a historic bank building at 1402 Odenton Road in Odenton, Maryland. It is now a local history museum operated by the Odenton Heritage Society. The single story Classical Revival masonry building was built in 1917 to serve the military population of nearby Camp Meade, which had been established as a cantonment for the First World War. The bank provided many soldiers with financial services, as Odenton was an off-base destination for social activities, and the bank was located near the train station. It only operated until February 8, 1918, when it was closed due to lack of funds. The building was next used as a shop, and was moved in 1945 to make room for a new train station . After the war it was converted for use as a parcel post service office, which closed in 1966. The Odenton Heritage Society acquired the building in 1989 and restored it.</p><br>

<p>The Hurricane Canal is a hand-excavated irrigation canal that diverted water from the Virgin River to the east side of Hurricane, Utah, United States.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The 7.5 mi canal was built starting in 1891 and completed in 1904. The work included a diversion dam on the Virgin River, the 12 ft wide canal grade with an 8 ft wide by 4 ft deep channel, and a series of flumes and trestles. Work was done by local men, mainly between November and May. The work was paid for by the canal&#39;s shareholders, whose lands on the Hurricane Bench were to be irrigated by the canal. Allotments were limited to 20 acre for shareholder. The 2,000 acre of new agricultural lands allowed the settlement of Hurricane after 1906.</p><br>
<p>The work and the shareholder system were organized by James Jepson, Jr. and John Steele. The superintendent of construction was J.T. Willis. Work was hampered by the failure of the first two diversion dams at the Narrows section of the Virgin River. The final dam was a timber crib and boulder structure, later augmented with concrete. From the dam the canal runs westerly 3.5 mi along the wall of the Virgin River Canyon, then south for 3 mi along the Hurricane Cliffs to the Hurricane Bench. It passes through twelve tunnels and six flumes. Wood flumes have been replaced with metal, and ten cisterns for drinking water have been abandoned.</p><br>
<p>The Hurricane Canal was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 26, 1977. Eleven of the twelve tunnels remain accessible to hikers.</p><br>

<p>The Buckminster-Kingsbury Farm is a historic farmhouse at 80 Houghton Ledge Road in Roxbury, New Hampshire. The brick house was built c. 1825, and is a well-preserved example of vernacular Federal and Greek Revival styling. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Buckminster-Kingsbury Farm is located in a rural setting of northwestern Roxbury, at the northern end of Houghton Ledge Road, a dirt road running north from near the Granite Gorge Ski Area. The farm occupies about 13 acre of land, which is mostly wooded except for a cleared area where the cluster of farm buildings is found. The c. 1825 farmhouse is the dominant element of the property, with a 19th-century barn standing nearby; other elements of historic interest on the property include foundation remnants of older buildings, and a 19th-century wellhead. The farmhouse is a brick building, stories in height, with a gabled roof. Attached to it are two single-story wood frame ells, which are believed to predate the construction of the main block by several years.</p><br>
<p>The town of Roxbury was incorporated in 1813 out of portions of neighboring communities. Its early settlement had been in the 18th century, mainly by veterans of the French and Indian War who had received land grants in the area. William Stoddard Buckminster, the son of one of Roxburys first selectmen, purchased land in this area from his father Solomon in 1820. It is believed that one of the ells, a post & beam wooden cape, of the house was the first structure built on the property in the 1790s. Buckminsters son David operated the farm until the 1860s, when he moved to Keene, and sold it in 1878 to Elbridge Kingsbury. The Kingsburys were also from a family of early settlers, and operated the farm until 1919. In the 1920s and 1930s they rented the property for use as a summer camp, and it was sold out of that family in 1946.</p><br>
