<p>Fort Johnson is a state-owned historic site of military and political significance located on the northeast point of James Island in Charleston County, South Carolina.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Fort Johnson was strategically important during the colonial era, as it was located on the banks of the Ashley River. The fort was named after Sir Nathaniel Johnson, who served as the Governor of Carolina from 1703 to 1709. It was the site of the first raising of the South Carolina state flag in 1775. The magazine was built in 1765 and is a brick structure that measures 27 feet long and 20 feet wide.</p><br>
<p>In 1861 the guns of Fort Johnson were within firing range of nearby Fort Sumter. These guns were heavily relied upon during the initial Confederate capture of Fort Sumter on April 13, 1861. Later on in the American Civil War the fort was buried by Confederate soldiers. In 1931 it was uncovered. Fort Johnson and the magazine were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.</p><br>

<p>The Cocheco Mills comprise a historic mill complex in the heart of Dover, New Hampshire. The mills occupy a bend in the Cochecho River that has been site of cotton textile manufacturing since at least 1823, when the Dover Manufacturing Company supplanted earlier sawmills and gristmills. The present mill buildings were built between the 1880s and the early 20th century, and were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The surviving elements of the mill complex are six major manufacturing buildings, the dam and wheel house which diverted water to the mills, a steel bridge, and the smokestack and remains of the boiler house of the complex.</p><br>
<h3>Dam, wheel house and bridge</h3><br>
<p>The dam stretches across the Cochecho River in a broad arc roughly west of mills #2 and #3. It is made of rough-cut granite ashlar, and stands between 9 and 150 feet in height. It has a modern concrete spillway. The dam was built sometime between 1905 and 1925, replacing an earlier dam. The wheel house stands east of mill #2, and is a small single-story brick structure built on a concrete arch which spans the space between mill #2 and the river. The bridge is a steel truss structure spanning the river west of mill #3. Probably built in the 1880s, it has wooden decking and a decorative balustrade.</p><br>
<h3>Mills</h3><br>
<p>There are four main mill buildings in the complex. The #1 mill is a five-story brick building located south of Washington Street. It was built in 1908 after the previous #1 mill was destroyed by fire; portions of the older structure that survived the fire were supposedly reused in its construction. The 1880 #2 mill marks the northern end of the complex, and is located between Main Street and Central Avenue. It is a four-story brick structure, and is joined at the south end to mill #3, which was built in 1881 and actually spans the river. An L-shaped extension added in 1909 replaced the old #4 mill. The #5 mill, built in 1825, is the oldest surviving element in the complex. Originally 25 bays in length, a portion of the building was demolished in the mid-20th century, leaving the present 10 bays. It has a distinctive Gothic Revival tower to which a belfry was added in the 1850s.</p><br>
<h3>Picker houses</h3><br>
<p>There are two picker houses, both built between 1905 and 1925. The #1 house is adjacent to the #1 mill at the south end of the complex. It is a brick structure three stories tall and roughly 12 bays long and 8 wide. It is joined to the #1 mill by a pair of two-story enclosed bridges. The #2 house is at the north end of the complex; it is a brick structure three stories tall, although because of the site topography one facade only shows two stories. Also 12 by 8 bays in dimension, it was once connected by an enclosed bridge to mill #2, but this has been removed.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Cotton textile manufacturing began on the Cochecho River with the Dover Cotton Factory, built in 1815 about two miles upstream at "Upper Factory" village. In 1823 it was renamed the Dover Manufacturing Company and reestablished at Cochecho Falls, but was not successful. In 1827 a new company, the Cocheco Manufacturing Company, was established with a capital of $1,500,000, but as historian Caroline Harwood Garland writes in 1897, "By an error of the engrossing clerk in the act of incorporation, the old Indian name, Cochecho, became Cocheco." Another historian, Alonzo Hall Quint, would comment, "The chief fault of the present Company is their barbarous spelling of Cocheco instead of Cochecho, for which no possible excuse exists.". Here in 1834 was one of the first textile mill strikes "in which women participated virtually alone." It lasted three days, prompted by a reduction in their pay.</p><br>
<p>By 1898, the Cocheco Manufacturing Company covered over 30-acres of floor pace, operated 130,000 spindles in 2,800 looms, and employed 2000 workers earning an average wage of 53 cents a day, six days a week. Housed in 15 buildings, the Cocheco Print Works produced over 65,000,000 yards of finished cloth a year. "Work in the mills was dirty, monotonous and loud," writes author Mark A. Leno, Jr. Then in 1909 the plant was purchased by Pacific Mill Works of Lawrence, Massachusetts, which in 1911 petitioned the US Board on Geographic Names to drop the rivers historic spelling Cochecho and substitute the mills spelling Cocheco. The manufacture of cotton textiles continued as before, but Pacific removed the Print Works machinery to its headquarters in Lawrence, and the buildings of the Print Works, built in 1842–1843, were torn down in 1913. Where they stood is now Henry Law Park.</p><br>
<p>Competition from textile processors in the American South, unburdened by the North&#39;s heating costs, combined with the effects of the Great Depression, led Pacific to shutter the complex in 1937. The city purchased the complex at auction in 1941. The buildings have since been home to a succession of smaller enterprises, primarily engaged in manufacturing. The buildings also house offices, restaurants, breweries and bars.</p><br>
<p>Unnamed Battery No. 1 is an historic artillery battery located at Clark&#39;s Point, James Island, Charleston County, South Carolina.

<p>The Durham Historic District encompasses a portion of the original historic settlement area of Durham, New Hampshire. It extends along Newmarket Road  from its northern junction with Laurel Lane to a three-way junction with Main Street and Dover Road . From there it extends along Main Street to Madbury Road. This area, known in early colonial days as the Oyster River Plantation, for the Oyster River which bisects it, was first settled in 1649. It was developed in the 18th century as a significant shipbuilding center. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Buildings</h2><br>
<p>Prominent buildings in the district include Durham&#39;s town hall (a c. 1825 brick building) and town office building (a c. 1860 vernacular house), and the Durham Community Church, built in 1848–49, which is the focal point of the Main Street section of the district. Along Newmarket Street stand a row of 18th and 19th-century houses just south of the Oyster River. Notable among these are the John Sullivan House, a National Historic Landmark that was home to American Revolutionary War General and Governor of New Hampshire John Sullivan, and the Hill-Woodman-Ffrost House, which has an ell that is believed to date to 1649, and has been in the Ffrost family since the late 18th century; it may be one of the oldest buildings in New Hampshire. The Newmarket section also includes the Red School House, originally built as a school c. 1796, and a monument to John Sullivan placed by the state in 1894 at the site of the 1716 meeting house.</p><br>

<p>The Madison Station Historic District is a historic district in Madison, Alabama. Madison was first settled around 1818 as a farming community, but significant growth began in 1858, when the first depot was built along the Memphis and Charleston Railroad line. Madison Station became an important loading point for the shipment of cotton, supplanting the Tennessee River as the preferred means of shipment. Merchants and other businesses soon followed, with many people moving from the river port of Triana. After a lull during the Civil War, the town&#39;s growth continued; Madison was incorporated in 1869. The town grew steadily until the 1950s, when industry spurred by the expansion of Redstone Arsenal replaced cotton as the primary economic force in Madison County.</p><br>
<p>The historic district contains the commercial strip along Main Street, running along the railroad tracks; cotton warehouses a few blocks from the depot; and numerous houses from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mostly to the north of the tracks. The commercial buildings are grouped in two blocks on the eastern end of main street. Most date from after 1900, with the exception of the Robert P. Cain Mercantile store (built 1859) and the building that housed Madison&#39;s first drug store (built 1871). The houses in the district represent popular styles of the late 1800s and early 1900s, including Queen Anne, Folk Victorian, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, and American Craftsman. The oldest houses are on Front Street, paralleling the tracks on the north, most of which are in Queen Anne style. The majority of houses are on Church Street, and show the full range of architectural styles. Between Front Street and the railroad tracks is the Village Green, a public, open space that contains a gazebo and a replica of the Roundhouse, the first town hall. The Madison Station depot was housed in four buildings during its existence: the first, built in 1858, was destroyed in a Civil War battle in 1864; the second served from 1866 until 1885; the third from 1885 until 1901; and the final, a combined passenger and freight depot, closed in 1961 and has since been demolished.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.</p><br>
<p>The Leech–Hauer House was a historic residence in Huntsville, Alabama. It was built circa 1830 by professional carpenter William Leech.

<p>Tolstoy Park  is a historic residence in Montrose, Alabama, United States. The house was built by Henry Stuart, an Englishman who had emigrated to the United States as a child. Stuart was living in Nampa, Idaho, when he was diagnosed with tuberculosis and advised to move to a warmer climate to live out his days. In 1923, he purchased 10 acres  outside Fairhope, Alabama, which he named Tolstoy Park.</p><br>
<p>Stuart began building a circular, domed hut in 1925, pouring each concrete block himself. Construction was completed in less than a year, although delayed by a hurricane in September 1926. The house is about 14 feet (4.2 m) in diameter and sunk 2 feet (61 cm) into the ground. Six top-hinged windows circle the building, and there were two skylights in the roof that are now permanently closed. Stuart sought to live a simple life, growing much of his own food and weaving rugs on a loom he brought from Idaho. He kept a guestbook for visitors to sign; notably, lawyer Clarence Darrow visited the hut six times. Stuart left Alabama in 1944, moving to Oregon to live with his son, where he died in 1946.</p><br>
<p>Today, the hut and a large oak tree are all that remain of Stuarts estate; a parking lot for a real estate office surrounds the hut. A novel based on Stuarts life, The Poet of Tolstoy Park, was published in 2005. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.</p><br>

<p>The Wiswall Falls Mill Site  is a historic archaeological industrial site in Durham, New Hampshire. It is located in John Hatch Park, a small public park just south of Wiswall Road on the eastern bank of the Lamprey River. The 3 acre site encompasses the remains of a small 19th-century mill complex that was one of Durham&#39;s major industrial sites of the 19th century until it burned in 1883. The site, which includes remains of the waterworks and foundations, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Wiswall Falls Mill Site is set in what is now a remote rural setting in western Durham. The main features of the site are the foundational remnants of a sawmill, paper mill, dam, power canal, and a variety of ancillary structures. Its most prominent features are a concrete dam, built in 1912 across the Lamprey River, and a stone-lined power canal, now partially filled in, that created a small island on the east side of the river. Just north of the present dam are the submerged remnants of a timber crib dam dating to 1835. Visible on either side of the former power canal are foundational remains of various structures.</p><br>
<p>Significant industrial activity began here in 1835, when Moses Wiggin built the timber crib dam and erected a sawmill. The power canal and paper mill were built in 1854 by Thomas Wiswall. The paper mill burned in 1883, and the sawmill was abandoned and eventually demolished after flooding breached the dam in the 1890s. The Wiswall Mill was Durhams major industrial site, other mills operating on a significantly smaller scale. The towns economy suffered generally during the second half of the 19th century, due in part to the routing of railroad infrastructure away from the village center and other potential industrial sites.</p><br>
<p>The site was adapted in 1900 for the production of hydroelectric power. This included the construction in 1912 of the present concrete dam, which was done to increase the site&#39;s generating capacity. The hydropower facility was abandoned in the 1940s, and the impoundment created by the dam was later used by the town as part of its water supply. The town acquired the property in 1967, and has landscaped it to present some of the architectural remnants of the mills which operated here.</p><br>
<p>The Woodbury Mill is a historic mill building at 1 Dover Street in Dover, New Hampshire. This five-story utilitarian brick mill building was built in 1885 by the Dover Improvement Association as a factory space for small footwear manufacturers to operate in, representing an organized effort by city businessmen to attract this type of business. It was used for shoe manufacturing until 1979, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Woodbury Mill building is located just north of downtown Dover, on the south side of Dover Street in what is essentially a residential area. It is five stories in height, 29 bays long and five wide, with a central brick firewall dividing the building into two roughly equal-size parts. Each part had an entrance near the center, one of which has since been filled in. Windows are set in segmented-arch openings and have wooden sills. The interior as originally built features exposed brick walls, wooden floors, and heavy post-and-beam construction.</p><br>
<p>Dover&#39;s 19th-century economic success was primarily due to the development of textile mills along the Cocheco River, with shoemaking little more than a cottage industry. The Dover Improvement Association was formed in 1885 by local businessmen to capitalize on improvements in shoemaking technology and bring a more organized approach to that industry into the city. This mill was built in the same year, on six house lots previously subdivided by John Ham, and was one of two mills the association would build. The Woodbury Brothers were one of its first tenants, occupying about half the space in the building. They would operate on the premises, employing as many as 250 workers, until 1894. The building continued to be used for shoe-related manufacturing, under a variety of owners and occupants, until 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Alaska Steam Laundry is a historic commercial building at 174 South Franklin Street in Juneau, Alaska. It is a Late Victorian wood-frame structure, with a prominent turret that has a conical roof. Built in 1901, it is a well-preserved element of the transition of Juneau from a mining camp to a more cosmopolitan city . It was built by E. R. Jaeger, who envisioned the laundry as a profitable business serving single miners working the nearby gold mines. The laundry facilities were housed on the ground floor, with residences and office space above. The laundry operated here until 1929, when it was moved to new premises in the city, and this building was converted to other commercial uses.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978</p><br>

<p>The District No. 9 Schoolhouse is a historic school building at 358 Hoyt Road in Gilford, New Hampshire. Built in 1815 and repeatedly altered to accommodated changing trends in school design, it is the best-preserved of Gilford&#39;s surviving district schoolhouses. Now a private summer residence, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Gilford&#39;s former District 9 Schoolhouse is located in a rural setting southeast of the town center, on the north side of Hoyt Road west of its junction with Belknap Mountain Road. It is a -story wood-frame structure, whose main block measures 24 ft in length and 22 ft in width. It has a shed-roof projection at one end which houses the main entrance and a vestibule area (dated to the 1830s), and a second shed-roof addition behind that, dating to the early 20th century. The interior space was historically divided into a classroom space and a wood storage area, later converted into a kitchen. The property includes a c. 1924 outhouse.</p><br>
<p>The school was built in 1815, and was originally covered by a hip roof. This was replaced by the present gable roof around 1835, at the same time the vestibule was added. Additional windows were added in the 1850s, probably in response to state-issued recommendations. Benches were replaced by individual desks and chairs in 1892, around which time blackboards were also installed. The building was used as a school until the mid-1920s, and was converted into a summer residence in 1938.</p><br>
<p>The Harrington–Birchett House is a former residence in downtown Tempe, Arizona. Originally built in 1895, the house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in 1895 as part of the J.W. Harrington homestead. It was built by the Goodwin brothers, who were then operating a brick-making business in Tempe. In 1904, the house was acquired by Mattie Birchett, in the same year that her son, Joseph T. Birchett, married. Mattie, her husband Joseph and their family lived in the home until circa 1920, when Joseph retired from the Birchett Brothers mercantile store for health reasons.</p><br>
<p>After Matties death in 1925, the house became a rental property until Joseph T. and Guess Birchett reoccupied it in the early 1930s. Joseph T. was a partner in the mercantile store with his brother John, in addition to owning considerable real estate in the area; he was also a director of the Tempe National Bank and served as mayor of Tempe from 1912 to 1914. Guess was known locally as the "bird-lady" for her research on birds and nature; the United States Fish and Wildlife Service even designated her home as a federally protected bird sanctuary from 1940 to 1970. She was the sister of Honor Anderson Moeur, wife of Governor Benjamin B. Moeur. The family occupied the Harrington–Birchett home because of its proximity to her sisters family&#39;s house. She also participated in beautification efforts in the city of Tempe and was named its Centennial Queen in 1971. Guess died in 1979.</p><br>
<p>Ownership of the house passed to Arizona State University when it purchased the property in 1989. As part of improvements to the property related to the development of the College Avenue Commons building to the east, a non-contributing slump block garage built in 1937 was demolished.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The Harrington–Birchett House was built as a brick Victorian cottage; however, a 1931 remodeling changed it into a Period Revival-style home with Tudor elements, including the enclosure of the house&#39;s porches. The house has an exterior coating of stucco over its brick face.</p><br>
<p>The house features an irregular plan with a steeply pitched hip roof. The front facade has a setback for the central entryway and again on the east end. The doorway is framed by two concrete steps and set into a semi-elliptical arch made of decorative brick. Wood-framed windows are either in double-hung or casement arrangements. A double garage at the rear of the house has two car doors.</p><br>
<p>Stylistically, the complete transformation of the home&#39;s architectural style is "unusual".</p><br>
<p>The Maricopa County Courthouse and Old Phoenix City Hall, also known as the County-City Administration Building, is a historic structure in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. The structure consists of two buildings in a conjoined layout sharing the same architecture.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>The need for a new courthouse and city hall</h3><br>
<p>The Maricopa County Courthouse and Phoenix City Hall was a joint effort of Maricopa County and the City of Phoenix, a "monumentally scaled" building taking up a full city block downtown. As city and county government matured, officials realized that a building of sufficient size was necessary to house county and city functions in an expanding Phoenix and Maricopa County. Maricopa County&#39;s facilities were an imposing two-story brick building in Block 76 of the townsite, completed in 1884; meanwhile, the original 1889 Phoenix city hall, which was designed by James M. Creighton and doubled as territorial capital until 1901, was also becoming too cramped for continued use.</p><br>
<p>On April 28, 1927, the county board of supervisors passed a resolution stating that the current courthouse and jail were no longer adequate for their needs. Additional space was needed for county departments, and adding to the 1884 structure would result in significant fire hazards. The board of supervisors called an election on May 21, 1927, to issue $750,000 in bonds to construct a new building on the Block 76 site; the citizens of Maricopa County approved the bonds by a margin of 3,489 to 780. On June 15, the board proceeded to begin the process of selecting an architect. When the bonds went to bid on July 18, nine investment firms and banks sought them, with Valley Bank and Trust of Phoenix being the winner.</p><br>
<p>Meanwhile, Phoenix, whose growth in the 1920s had led to at least eight new high-rise buildings downtown, saw an opportunity in the new county courthouse project to get a city hall. A group of reform-minded citizens led the charge to combine the two projects; in early 1927, Judge Frank O. Smith spoke twice to the city commission on behalf of a group in the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce. Days after his second speech, the board of supervisors sent the city a letter expressing a desire to collaborate on a shared building. With approval from both the board and the mayor and continued pressure from Judge Smith and the chamber of commerce, the ball began to roll. In June, the property was assessed, and after that, the board of supervisors accepted a bid from the city to acquire the western third of the property for Phoenix&#39;s city hall. On July 8, the city commission passed an ordinance calling for a special bond election to raise $450,000 to acquire the western third (valued at $150,000) and to build the new city hall. The election, held on August 16, saw Phoenicians vote 460 to 164 in favor of the proposal.</p><br>
<h3>Design and construction</h3><br>
<p>Early on, both sides began scouting architects. The board of supervisors traveled to various eastern and southern states in the summer of 1927 to evaluate the latest in new courthouses. They consulted other boards and commissions, and in September, they began to analyze the seven bids that had been received.</p><br>
<p>Prominent architects and firms figured among the contenders to build the county courthouse. Three of them were local: V. O. Wallingford of Phoenix, recognized for his architectural activities throughout the state; Fitzhugh & Byron, also of Phoenix; and Lescher & Mahoney, known for constructing schools and other public buildings. Four additional architects put in bids: William N. Bowman of Denver, designer of the Yavapai County Courthouse; Henry T. Phelps of San Antonio, who designed several courthouses in Texas; Trost & Trost of El Paso had designed many buildings in Tucson and the Luhrs Building downtown; and Shreveport architect Edward Neild, whose Caddo Parish Courthouse favorably impressed the supervisors. On September 19, 1927, the board of supervisors voted 2–1 to select Neild, with A. G. Austin voting instead for Bowman&#39;s proposal.</p><br>
<p>However, the decision did not meet well with the city of Phoenix, which had backed Lescher & Mahoney. Board and city officials worked to reach a compromise, and both sides expressed a desire to put their differences behind them. An official contract was signed in October, and in November, Phoenix signed a contract with Lescher & Mahoney to design its portion of the project. The contract called for Neild to be in charge of general exterior appearance, but Lescher & Mahoney added several elements to the exterior of the City Hall area and was largely in control of the design of its interiors. In April 1928, the board called for bids for the general contractor; the winning firm was Los Angeles-based Edwards, Wildey and Dixon, who had just completed the Security Building, with which the board was particularly impressed.</p><br>
<p>The contract process hit a snag when a contract specifying the highest quality furniture for the sum of $47,000 was contested by Berryhill Office Equipment Company. Berryhill sued in Maricopa County Superior Court, alleging that the county, by not providing specifications or calling for a lowest and best bid, did not follow prescribed bidding practices. The Superior Court ruled in favor of the county, but Berryhill appealed to the Arizona Supreme Court, which sided with Berryhill on June 14, 1929. The county was forced to redo the bidding process.</p><br>
<p>With the building half completed, the city and county hosted a dedication ceremony conducted by the Arizona Grand Lodge of Masons. Among the dignitaries present were Senator Carl Hayden, the acting Grand Orator, and Col. John Philip Sousa, conducting the Marine Corps Band. At the ceremony, the cornerstone of Arizona granite was laid, and a time capsule, coated in copper and containing documents, emblems and other ephemera, was mortared inside with a silver trowel.</p><br>
<p>The Berryhill lawsuit and normal construction delays pushed back occupancy from the scheduled date of April 1, 1929, to June 23, when the city and county formally took possession of the building, constructed at a total cost of $1,200,000.</p><br>
<h3>Occupancy</h3><br>
<p>The city and county each had portions of the building serving their own offices, with a jail on the fifth and sixth floors. The building housed the City Justice of the Peace and the Maricopa County Superior Court, making it an important hub of legal activity in the Phoenix area. Among the major county cases tried in the courthouse was the first trial of Ernesto Miranda, which eventually led to the landmark Miranda v. Arizona case of the Supreme Court of the United States in 1966</p><br>
<p>and, consequently, the ubiquitous "Miranda warning" issued by police.</p><br>
<p>In addition, Winnie Ruth Judd was once jailed inside the courthouse.</p><br>
<h3>Outgrowth and city relocation</h3><br>
<p>With Phoenix and Maricopa County both continuing with explosive growth after World War II, the joint city-county building, which represented a vastly different era in state history, now was as inadequate as the structures it had replaced. As early as 1949, Phoenix officials began to explore the possibility of building a new city hall; the city needed so much space that it desired a building for its exclusive use. With this need growing ever more urgent, voters approved $4.3 million in bonds in April 1957 to build a new city hall. The modernist ten-story Phoenix Municipal Building (now the Calvin C. Goode Building) at 251 West Washington Street, designed by a consortium of Ralph Haver and Associates and Edward L. Varney and Associates, represented not only the increased size and stature of Phoenix but also the rapid evolution in architectural styles. At the same time, many Maricopa County functions moved to new facilities in the $11 million Maricopa County Governmental Complex, completed in 1964 and designed by the firm of Stephens Walsh Emmons Shanks.</p><br>
<p>The Superior Court still uses the building. In 2012, the opened in a sixth-floor cell block inside the Old Courthouse.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<h3>Designers</h3><br>
<p>The courthouse was designed by Shreveport architect Edward Neild in conjunction with the influential Phoenix firm of Lescher & Mahoney. At the time, Lescher & Mahoney dominated the design of public buildings in the state; their work included the county courthouses in Graham and Mohave counties, and while the courthouse was under construction the Orpheum Theater and Brophy College Chapel, also designs from Lescher & Mahoney, were under construction. Neild, meanwhile, had built the Shreveport Municipal Building in his hometown in 1924 and also designed several structures at Louisiana Tech University. The Maricopa County Courthouse is Neild&#39;s only known work in the state of Arizona.</p><br>
<h3>Exterior</h3><br>
<p>The Maricopa County Courthouse is designed in an H shape with overall dimensions of 230 ft by 130 ft. The six-story central tower dominates the composition, with seven pronounced vertical bays. Two four-story projecting wings with three bays flank the east and west sides; as a whole, the building presents a "wide and imposing" façade to both Washington Street, which contains the entrance to the county portion, and to Jefferson Street.</p><br>
<p>The building is made of poured-in-place concrete using a conventional concrete frame. The structure itself sits on a raised foundation story made of evenly coursed terra cotta panels, with unornamented window openings. The exterior is clad in rusticated terra cotta panels of various colors that simulate yellow sandstone and also lend the building an appearance similar to that of masonry. The entry to the courthouse is set within a rounded arch, above which is inscribed "MARICOPA COUNTY COURT HOUSE". The entry is a pair of bronze doors with full glass panels topped with ornamental ironwork. The side wings on the second level have windows framed in cast iron, the one element that gives the courthouse a Southwestern flavor.</p><br>
<p>The most ornamentation is to be found on the building&#39;s upper two stories, used as the jail with a third masonry expression utilizing terra cotta panels. The windows on these levels have honeycomb patterns of tiles framed in cast iron, while the sixth floor has conventional steel frame windows. The bays rise to a segmented arch with radiating elements echoing those in the entryways, creating a Neoclassical, form-based appearance. The hipped, clay tile roof was originally coated in seven different colors of tiles, a detail no longer visible due to soiling.</p><br>
<p>The Second Avenue façade is the third primary elevation of the building, featuring the main entrance to the city portion. This entrance is also set inside an arch, which is flanked by terra cotta sculptures of the mythological phoenix. The wall adjacent to the entry is entirely made of polished granite, while the bronze doors are multi-paneled.</p><br>
<h3>Interior</h3><br>
<p>The interior is "equally as elaborate in detail" as the exterior, with numerous materials. Circulation centers around a longitudinal east-west corridor through the building. Behind the county entrance is a grand entrance foyer utilizing four types of marble; even the restrooms feature gray Alaskan marble wainscoting. Paneling and woodwork in the offices and courtrooms features Philippine mahogany. The interior breaks with the exterior stylistically, relying on Spanish Colonial Revival ornamentation on the first floor.</p><br>
<p>Several renovations were made prior to the building being listed, all minor reconfigurations of the interior. Some finishes and ceilings were obscured, fire-rated doors were added, and several rooms were divided, but the courtrooms were still predominantly intact in the late 1980s.</p><br>

<p>The Columbia Hotel is a European-style hotel in Ashland, Oregon, and has been in continuous operation since its construction in 1910. The hotel occupied the second floor of the Enders Building, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>Designed by architect Frank Chamberlain Clark, the Enders Building was the first concrete commercial structure in Ashland. The Ashland Tidings, December 12, 1910, called it "the largest structure of its kind in Southern Oregon." Featuring characteristics of the Chicago style, it is also significant as an early example of a department store. Hotel accommodations on the second level were constructed to make it possible for shoppers from Northern California as well as from Oregon towns as far north as Grants Pass to travel to the mercantile shops in downtown Ashland by wagon, train, or car to shop and then stay the night at the hotel, and return home the next day.</p><br>
<p>For decades, under the direction of local businessman H.G. Enders, the building was the largest mercantile establishment between Sacramento and Portland. The Columbia Hotel, the only surviving Ashland hotel from this period, remained true to its original construction with much of the original fixtures, furniture, and all of the original millwork. Its interior featured an antique tin-lined wooden telephone booth, believed to be the oldest booth in Oregon still serving callers.</p><br>
<p>The same year the Enders Building brought its shops, restaurant, and Columbia Hotel to Ashland the Citizens Banking and Trust Co. Building went up next door (with a bank, grocery, and professional offices), while a four-story Elks Lodge (BPOE #944) was constructed directly across the street—all part of the 1909–1913 building boom On October 10, 2010, Ashland temporarily closed a stretch of Main Street for a centennial celebration in which re-dedication ceremonies were held at both the Columbia Hotel and Elks Lodge.</p><br>
<p>The Columbia Hotel closed permanently on November 1, 2021, after 111 years in operation, the longest of any continuously operating hotel in Oregon. In May 2024, after two and a half years of vacancy, the Columbia Hotel was reopened with a redesigned interior. While many of the historical elements, such as the radiators and original floors, were kept intact, the hotel lobby and each room were decorated with unique art fixtures. Live musical performances are now held at the Columbia Hotel, and several beers on tap are served to hotel guests and the general public.</p><br>
