<p>The R. W. Lindholm Service Station is a service station designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and located in Cloquet, Minnesota, United States. Built in 1958 and still in use, it is the only station built to a Wright design during his lifetime. It was originally part of Wright&#39;s utopian Broadacre City plan and is one of the few designs from that plan that was actually implemented. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Wright had designed station owner Ray Lindholm&#39;s house in 1952 and, knowing Lindholm worked in the oil business, presented him with a proposal to design the gas station envisioned as part of Broadacre City. Lindholm seized the opportunity to beautify gas station design, and Wright completed his design in 1956. The station ultimately cost $20,000 – roughly four times the cost of the average filling station at the time.</p><br>
<p>The station opened in 1958 under Lindholm&#39;s name; it later became a Phillips 66 station.</p><br>
<p>Its construction was only a partial success for Wright, as his vision of the gas station as a social center never took hold. However, Phillips 66 incorporated several of the gas station&#39;s design elements, particularly the triangular cantilevered canopy, in later gas stations.</p><br>
<p>The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 1985, for its architectural significance.</p><br>
<p>As of 2014, it operates under the Spur brand.</p><br>
<p>In 2018, the grandchildren of Ray Lindholm sold the gas station to Minneapolis real estate developer and entrepreneur Andrew Volna.</p><br>
<h2>Design</h2><br>
<p>In his original plans for Broadacre City, Wright designed his service stations to be community social centers and an integral part of his utopian ideas. His design of the Lindholm Service Station reflects these plans and represents a then-unconventional approach to filling station design. A cantilevered copper canopy extends over the gas pumps; the angular end of the canopy points to the St. Louis River, a feature Wright intended to symbolically connect river transport to the automobile. While Wright had planned to install overhead gas pumps suspended from the canopy to add space, local safety regulations compelled him to install conventional ground-based pumps. Beneath the canopy is an observation lounge with glass walls, originally intended to be the social center envisioned in the Broadacre City plans. The station&#39;s service bays are built from stepped cement blocks; the stepping, as well as the recessed mortar between the rows of blocks, provides a horizontal element to the building. Skylights allow sunlight into the service bays.</p><br>
<p>Despite the importance of gas stations to the Broadacre City concept, the building was the only Wright-designed service station built in his lifetime. Another service station designed by Wright is part of the Pierce-Arrow Museum in Buffalo, New York; while he designed the station in 1927, it was not built until 2013.</p><br>
<p>The Giffin House is a historic house on New Hampshire Route 10 in Goshen, New Hampshire. Built in 1835, it served as a schoolhouse until 1957, and is one of three surviving 19th century schoolhouses in Goshen. It is also part of a cluster of plank-frame houses built in the community. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Giffin House is located a short way south of the village center of Goshen, on the west side of New Hampshire Route 10, about 0.2 mi south of its junction with Brook Road. It is a single-story wooden structure, measuring just 18 x, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior, set on a granite foundation. Its walls are framed using three inch wooden planks arranged vertically, with lateral stability provided by wooden dowels. The main facade is oriented to the south, with a band of sash windows to the left of the main entrance. The entrance is sheltered by an enclosed gable-roofed vestibule. An ell extends to the west, set at a recess to the main block.</p><br>
<p>This building was built as the Mill Village District Schoolhouse in 1835, a role it played until 1957, after which it was converted to residential use. The plank-frame construction method is found in a cluster of houses in Goshen that is believed to be unique in the state for its concentration.</p><br>
<p>The Capt. John Gunnison House is a historic house on Goshen Center Road in Goshen, New Hampshire. Built in 1812, it is one of the town&#39;s finer examples of Federal architecture. It was the childhood home and likely birthplace of John Williams Gunnison, a military officer who led exploratory expeditions in Colorado. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Captain John Gunnison House is located in a rural setting of central Goshen, on the north side of Goshen Center Road about 1 mi east of New Hampshire Route 31. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof and clapboarded exterior. Its main facade has five bays, with the door centered, with flanking sidelight windows and a false fanlight above. A single-story porch extends across the center three bays, supported by round columns. Two interior chimneys rise behind the main roof ridge, and only one of its original four fireplaces survives. The interior includes a number of 19th-century features, including stencilwork and feather painting.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1812 on an 80 acre parcel that was one of the first to be granted in the town, to Samuel Gunnison. Explorer John Williams Gunnison was born in 1812, so this may have been the place of his birth. Gunnison was killed by Native Americans in 1853 during an exploratory expedition in what is now Utah. Geographic features in Colorado, where he also led expeditions, bear his name. The house was sold out of the Gunnison family by 1890.</p><br>

<p>The Kildare–McCormick House is a historic residence in Huntsville, Alabama. The highly ornate, Queen Anne-style mansion was built in 1886–87. Its early owners contributed to the development of Huntsville, both through industrial projects and philanthropic efforts. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built by industrialist Michael OShaugnessey, who had come to Huntsville from Nashville in 1881 with his brother to open a cottonseed oil factory. He also was a member of the North Alabama Improvement Company, which invested in infrastructure and industry and were the main backers of Dallas Mill. OShaugnessey built his mansion in 1886 on 71 acres (29 ha), naming it Kildare, after the county in Ireland where he was born.</p><br>
<p>OShaugnessey returned to Nashville in 1900, and sold the house to Mary Virginia McCormick, daughter of Cyrus McCormick, another industrial magnate who invented the mechanical reaper. Virginia McCormick lived in the house as a winter residence with her caretaker Grace Walker. McCormick and Walker were heavily involved in philanthropic efforts in the city. McCormick funded several YMCAs in the mill villages surrounding town, an African-American wing for the then-segregated Huntsville Hospital, and a hospital at Alabama A&M University; Virginias relative, Robert R. McCormick also funded A&Ms Domestic Science Building. The house was used for many social events, including Christmas parties for children, Easter egg hunts, and a celebration for Virginias birthday in May. During McCormick&#39;s tenure, a conservatory was added to the side of the ballroom and a porch added to the rear of the house.</p><br>
<p>McCormick moved out of the house in 1931, and the family subdivided and sold the property the next year. Over the next 40 years, the house had no fewer than 10 owners who repurposed the house as a hotel, boarding house, health spa, antique shop, and brothel. After years of neglect, the house was purchased in 1975 by James Reeves, who restored the house over the next 20 years. The current owners purchased the house in 2007 and constructed a protective barrier around it.</p><br>

<p>first free man of color to own property in Livingston Parish. He and his enslaved laborers managed the land and planted crops. The ownership changed over the</p><br>
<p>years, but the property continued to operate as a plantation until the Civil War.</p><br>
<p>The plantation&#39;s cypress swamp was a major timber source for the surrounding</p><br>
<p>area. The timber harvesting was the plantation&#39;s main source of income and the</p><br>
<p>Blood River was the main source of transportation and access to the site.</p><br>
<p>Historically the river was used to transport the timber mainly south to New</p><br>
<p>Orleans. The journey by boat to New Orleans used to take 2-3 days. With the</p><br>
<p>arrival of the railroads, the river became less important for transport, and the</p><br>
<p>plantation began to slowly lose business.</p><br>
<p>There were two school houses on the site. One of the school houses was used to</p><br>
<p>educate the owner’s children and cousins, and the other was a separate school</p><br>
<p>house hidden in the woods for the slave children to secretly learn. The main land</p><br>
<p>entry to the site was via the road that approached from the east. Crops grown on</p><br>
<p>the site included many common southern fruits and vegetables including mainly</p><br>
<p>corn; however the typical southern cotton crop was never grown on the site."</p><br>
<p>In March 1865, late in the Civil War, the plantation hosted a small Confederate naval squadron which launched a successful expedition against a Union Navy-protected contraband operation on the lower Amite River. The leader of the Mobile-based force, Lt. Edward J. McDermott, and a local man who served as a guide, Louis Bernard, were killed in the battle and their bodies brought back for burial at the Springfield Cemetery.</p><br>

<p>The Carter Plantation house is currently the real estate center for "The Villas and the Carter Plantation Golf Resort".</p><br>
<p>There is a large cemetery on the property.</p><br>
<p>The Steger–Nance House  is a historic residence in Maysville, Alabama. It was built in 1854 by physician Francis Epps Harris Steger. Later owners included another physician, Issac William Howard, and local cotton gin owner and farmer Harry F. Nance. The house is built in a Federal style of brick laid in common bond. The house originally had a central hall flanked by a drawing room and parlor, with a dining room behind the parlor in an ell. A kitchen, bathroom, center hall, sitting room, and patio were added to the rear of the house in 1950. The house has three chimneys in each of the gable ends. Windows on the façade are nine-over-nine sashes flanked by narrow three-over-three sashes. A shed roofed porch stretches across the front, supported by six pairs of square columns on brick pillars. A narrow balcony, accessed from the upstairs hall, is centered above the front door. The house was listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 1981 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The South Oakdale Historic District comprises a primarily residential area along South Oakdale Avenue in Medford, Oregon, United States. Development of this well-preserved residential neighborhood began in 1890, soon after Medfords founding in 1883, and continued until around 1940. It became one of the citys grand neighborhoods, with many residents prominent in land development, business, agriculture, law, medicine, education, politics, and the arts. The district exhibits a wide range of architectural styles from its period of development, notably including several works by Frank Chamberlain Clark, southern Oregon&#39;s preeminent architect of the early 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Yarbrough Hotel is a historic building in Huntsville, Alabama. The four-story structure was built of brick and reinforced concrete in 1922–25. The top three floors contain 75 rooms, while the ground floor features the hotel lobby and storefronts; as it did not have a ballroom or party rooms, it catered to businessmen. It faced competition from the Twickenham Hotel one block away, and the Russel Erskine Hotel . Yarbrough operated as a residential hotel until the late 1950s, and was renovated in the 1980s.</p><br>
<p>The building stretches 70 feet (21 m) along Washington Street and 152 feet (46 m) on Holmes Avenue. The ground floor is separated from the upper floors by two string courses of stone. Flat brick pilasters divide the façade into bays. Double brackets at the top of each pilaster support a deep pressed metal cornice, with a row of dentils below. Windows on the upper floors are one-over-one sashes, each topped with a row of soldier course brick with a stone block at each corner. Each bay is two windows wide, except for the two end bays on the Holmes side, which are one window wide. The lobby entrance is on the Holmes side, which is covered by an elaborate metal awning. Several storefronts line the Holmes façade at irregular intervals. The Washington Street side is divided into three bays, each with an identical recessed door flanked by large display windows. Shallow awnings stretch across each opening, under a block of small window panes.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Hart-Rice House is a historic house at 408 The Hill in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. It is located on The Hill, a cluster of closely spaced historic buildings southeast of Deer Street, some of which were moved to the site as part of a road widening project. Built sometime between 1749 and 1756, it is a little-altered example of Georgian architecture with only modest Federal period alterations. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Hart-Rice House stands in The Hill, a cluster of closely spaced historic houses bounded on the north by Deer Street and the east by High Street at the northern edge of downtown Portsmouth. This grouping was created by a road widening project from houses originally located on or near Deer Street. It is set in the central cluster, south of the Jeremiah Hart House and west of the Simeon P. Smith House. It is a -story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof and clapboarded exterior. It has two chimneys, and three original gable dormers piercing the roof on the main facade. The main entry is flanked by pilasters and topped by a triangular pediment. The interior retains many original Georgian period features, including paneling around all of its fireplaces.</p><br>
<p>The house was built facing Deer Street sometime between 1749, when Samuel Hart mortgaged the land, and 1756, when it was inventoried for his estate. In the early 19th century it was owner by William Hart, a ship&#39;s captain, who made modest alterations to the interior trim. Rice was locally prominent as a privateer during the War of 1812.</p><br>
<p>The Haven-White House is a historic house at 229 Pleasant Street in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Built about 1800 for a prosperous merchant, it is an important early example of the city&#39;s Federal architecture, with numerous high-quality interior features, and a rare surviving period stable. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Haven-White House is located south of central Portsmouth, on the north side of Pleasant Street at its junction with Richmond Street. It is a three-story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof, interior chimneys, and a clapboarded exterior. A three-story ell projects to the left rear, giving it a facade of similar length facing Richmond Street as its main facade, which faces Pleasant. The main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance flanked by slender Federal-style engaged columns and topped by a gabled pediment. Windows are topped by shouldered surrounds with slightly projecting caps, and the main eave has dentil moulding encircling the building. The interior retains many high-quality examples of Federal period woodwork, including an extremely rare in situ bust of the poet John Milton. The second-floor southwest bedchamber contains one of the city&#39;s most complete expressions of high-style Federal woodwork.</p><br>
<p>The house was built about 1799 or 1800 for Joseph Haven, a prosperous merchant. The stable at the rear of the property is a two-story building dating to the same period, which includes keystoned arches over its major openings, and a period oculus window.</p><br>
<p>The Highland Road Historic District is a historic district encompassing a rural neighborhood in South Hampton, Rockingham County, New Hampshire. The historic farm estates which characterize the neighborhood date to the turn of the 18th century. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places  in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The boundary of the district (according to the map included in the official NRHP nomination) extends from the junction of the Back River and Woodman Road northward along Woodman to the historic Brown Estate on Highland Road, then continues north to the Kensington border (the properties on the north side of Highland Road actually extend into Kensington). From here the boundary runs east to the northern boundaries of the historic Towle Estate, then south again to Towle&#39;s Corner on to the Back River again. From here the boundary runs along the river (roughly) westward, back to Woodman Road.</p><br>
<p>The district encompasses eight farm properties, including well-preserved farmhouses dating from c. 1730 to c. 1800. Several of these houses are located on lots that are substantially similar to their 18th-century outlines, providing a significant link to the areas past. Three of the eight farmhouses were built before 1740, and most predate South Hamptons incorporation as a separate community. There is also a small stone foundation on the south side of Highland Road said to belong to an old schoolhouse, which does not appear in the NRHP nomination.</p><br>
<p>The present-day neighborhood within and immediately surrounding the district is colloquially called High Town.</p><br>
<p>Oak Place  is a historic residence in Huntsville, Alabama. It was built by renowned Huntsville architect George Steele in 1840 on 320 acres . Steele designed a number of buildings across the South, including the First National Bank building in Huntsville, and the second Madison County Courthouse, which stood from 1840 until 1914. Similar to many of his buildings, Steele designed the Oak Place house in a Greek Revival style, although much more restrained in detail.</p><br>
<p>The house has a low hipped roof, and is three stories, although it appears as two stories with a basement due to its unusual interior layout. The façade has three steps leading to a one-story, flat-roofed portico supported by two square Doric columns on the corners and two fluted Doric columns in the middle. The entablature is the most decorated part of the house, although it is limited to groups of vertical strakes. Windows flanking the portico are six-over-nine sashes surrounded by square pilasters and Doric capitals with plain entablature and cornice. The interior layout was different than the standard home of the day. It features a central entrance hall, with a large ballroom with 14-foot (4.2-m) ceilings to one side, and two smaller rooms several steps above on the other. In the basement below the two smaller rooms is a dining room, taking advantage of the higher ceiling. There are four bedrooms on the second floor. Like the exterior, the interior was restrained.</p><br>
<p>Many details were lost when it was converted from a house to a church school building by the East Huntsville Baptist Church. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<p>Desire plantation, also known as Alcidesire, is an historic Perique tobacco plantation built circa 1835, and located in Vacherie, Louisiana, St. James Parish. The plantation house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Desire LeBlanc was born in 1831, the son of Dominique LeBlanc and Perosine Bourgeois. He married Aglaé Bourgeois in 1854 and had a daughter, Alcidie LeBlanc, in the same year.</p><br>
<p>In April 1885, Alcidie married Louis S. Webre, who bought the Bellevue (Belleview) Plantation located on Bayou Grosse Tete in Iberville Parish. They had a son, Joseph M. Webre, in 1888.</p><br>
<p>The Benjamin James House is a historic house museum at 186 Towle Farm Road in Hampton, New Hampshire. Built in 1723, it is believed to be the oldest surviving example in New Hampshire of the traditional five-bay Georgian Colonial house, with a possibly older building attached as an ell. Now owned by a local nonprofit organization, it is open selected days between May and October, or by appointment. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Benjamin James House is located in a rural setting on the south side of Towle Farm Road, just west of Interstate 95. The house is oriented facing south (away from the street), toward an old road alignment. It is a -story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof, central chimney, and clapboarded exterior. A two-story ell projects north from the back of the house. The main house is built with a heavy timber frame consisting of four bents running front-to-back, joined by horizontal timber beams. Each bent has three posts, which support the roof framing and the summer beams defining the partition between the front and rear chambers. The ell exhibits similar First Period construction techniques, whose forms are consistent with the idea that it was all or part of the first house built on the property, c. 1707. The main house timbers have been dated by dendrochronology to 1723.</p><br>
<p>The land on which the house stands was purchased in 1705 by Benjamin James, a weaver. By 1722 James owned 30 acre, and had eight children, prompting construction of this larger house the following year. The house remained in the James family until 1931, undergoing a number of alterations, mainly to its interior features and finishes. The largest-scale alterations were the removal of the original central chimney late in the 19th century, at which time the house also received new windows (although at least one of its original window sashes was found in the attic). Vacant and in deteriorating condition, it was purchased in 1995 by the James House Association, a local non-profit dedicated to its preservation.</p><br>
<p>The Jewell Town District of South Hampton, New Hampshire, encompasses a colonial-era industrial village with a history dating to 1687. It is centered at the junction of West Whitehall and Jewell Streets, which is just south of a bend in the Powwow River, the source of the power for the mills that were built here. The area was settled in 1687 by Thomas Jewell, and by the early 19th century included a variety of mills as well as a bog iron works. The district now includes only remnants of its industrial past, and features a collection of 18th and early-19th century residential architecture. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Jewell Town is located in central southern South Hampton, hugging the state line with Massachusetts. It is now a largely rural residential area, with farmland and former farmland and woodlands predominating the landscape. The historic district is about 79 acre in size, and extends along West Whitehall Road from crossing point of the state line in the west, to a triangular junction with Jewell Street and Whitehall Road in the east. This junction is between two bridges across the Powwow River, and is the most densely built part of the district. West Whitehall Road is sparsely lined with houses ranging in age from about 1740 to the 20th century. All are wood frame structure, 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 stories in height, and the majority were built before about 1850 in Colonial, Federal and Greek Revival styles. Later constructions are in more vernacular forms, although there is one early 20th-century Colonial Revival house.</p><br>
<p>The area was first settled in 1687 by Thomas Jewell. The waters of the Powwow River were recognized from an early date as a useful source of power, and the bend on the Powwow River was the site of most of South Hampton&#39;s 18th-century industry. Industries in the area included several sawmills, a gristmill, fulling mill, and an iron works. In the 19th century more specialized businesses arose, included manufacturers of pails, matches, and axles. Water-based industry was effectively killed when the Salisbury Mill Company, located just to the south in Amesbury, Massachusetts, bought up all of the water rights and reserved them for its own use.</p><br>
<p>The Reuben Lamprey Homestead is a historic house at 416 Winnacunnet Road in Hampton, New Hampshire. Built in the 1770s, the property is the best-preserved colonial-era farm complex in the town. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Reuben Lamprey Homestead is located on the north side of Winnacunnet Road, a busy east–west through road, between Presidential Circle and Nathaniel Way. The main house is a -story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof, center chimney, and clapboarded exterior. The main facade is symmetrical, with five bays, and is simply trimmed except for the centered entrance. That is flanked by sidelight windows and recessed paneled pilasters, and is topped by a seven-light transom window and entablature. Extending to the rear of the main block are two ells, both now of 20th-century origin. A timber-framed barn stands beyond and to the right of the house.</p><br>
<p>The main house was built in the 1770s by Reuben Lamprey, descendant of one of the area&#39;s early settlers. The house, and the accompanying period barn, have seen only relatively modest alterations since their construction. The principal alterations have been the replacement of the ells, and repair work on the barn, which partially collapsed due to neglect in the 20th century. It was restored and used for a time as a well-known local antique shop. The property was sold out of the Lamprey family in 1881.</p><br>
<p>The Camayo Arcade is a historic shopping arcade located along Winchester Avenue in downtown Ashland, Kentucky. It opened in July 1926 and was the first indoor shopping mall built in the state of Kentucky. The building is part of the Ashland Commercial Historic District.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>On September 22, 1925, a construction contract was awarded to C. Harrison Smith, a general contractor from Huntington, West Virginia. Demolition of the Josselson Brothers Furniture Store began the following week on the site where the arcade would be constructed. Electrical fixtures were installed beginning in June 1925 by the Beardslee Chandelier Manufacturing Company of Chicago. The arcade opened under the management of John C. C. Mayo Jr. and Alexander Cameron in July 1926.</p><br>
<p>On October 9, 1926, the 15,000 ft&sup2; Camayo Arcade Recreation Center opened in basement of the building. The recreation center featured billiards tables and a bowling alley. Once completed, the Camayo Arcade had 68,190 ft&sup2; of total floor space.</p><br>
<p>The building underwent significant renovations in 2012 after being purchased by resident Perry Madden.</p><br>
