<p>The Merrill-Poor House is a historic house and estate on Maine State Route 120 northeast of the village center of Andover, Maine. With construction dating to the late 1780s, the main house exemplifies the evolution of a frontier property. It is also significant as the birthplace of financier John A. Poor  and financial analyst Henry Varnum Poor , the latter of whom was responsible for its transformation into a summer estate in the late 19th century. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The main portion of the Merrill-Poor House is a large -story wood-frame structure, resting on a granite foundation, with a hip roof and a large central chimney. This structure was built between 1788 and 1792 by Ezekiel Merrill, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War who had been granted the land for his service. The main facade is a five-bay center-entry configuration typical of the period, although it has been embellished with a Queen Anne portico. Merrill&#39;s construction originally had symmetrically placed twin chimneys; the change to a central chimney was part of the 1890s alterations.</p><br>
<p>Ezekiel Merrills daughter Mary married Sylvanus Poor, and this couple inherited his property. Their children included Henry Varnum Poor (1812-1905), who started a firm that continues today as part of Standard and Poors, and John A. Poor (1808-1871), a lawyer and businessman who was instrumental in the development of the railroad in Maine, particularly the Grand Trunk Railway. Henry purchased the family homestead from relatives in 1890, and transformed the property into a summer estate, working in consultation with architect Edward Clarke Cabot and landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted. Cabots alterations to the main house included creation of a large dining room running the width of the rear of the house, and the construction of a maze of bedrooms in the second story, as well as the relocation of a service ell. The largest addition, however, was the construction of a great hall in 1896, a massive two-story structure built on the site of the old barn. Its interior feature Gothic woodwork in an open "lodge" space 30 ft high at its apex.</p><br>

<p>The Rumford Municipal Building is located on Congress Street in the central business district of Rumford, Maine. Built in 1915 to a design by Lewiston architect Harry S. Coombs, it continues to house the towns municipal offices today. It is a fine example of Colonial Revival architecture, representing the towns growth in the early decades of the 20th century, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The town of Rumford, Maine experienced rapid growth with the arrival in the 1880s of industrialist Hugh J. Chisholm and the railroad in the 1890s. Chisholm in 1893 established the paper processing industry that still dominates the town, and its population and central business district grew rapidly in the following decades. This growth prompted the need for a new town hall, and in 1915 the town retained Harry S. Coombs, a Maine architect based in Lewiston, to design a new municipal building, with a projected cost of $25,000. The building Coombs designed ended up costing $95,000 to complete.</p><br>
<p>The building Coombs designed is a 2-1/2 story Colonial Revival structure, faced in brick with granite trim. The main block is five bays wide, set on a raised foundation, with a hip roof topped by a clocktower with a coppered cupola. The main entrance, centered on the front facade, is accessed via a small flight of stairs, and is sheltered by a portico supported by Doric columns. The portico has an entablature topped by an extended dentillated cornice. First floor windows are rectangular sash windows with a decorative granite keystone. The second floor window above the entry is a Palladian window, its sections separated by engaged columns, with a swag decoration above. The remaining second floor windows are rectangular, with a recessed round-arch section above. There is a cornice line separating the second floor from the attic level, which has groups of smaller windows just below the roof.</p><br>
<p>The Modern News Building is a historic commercial building at 216 North Main Street in downtown Harrisburg, Arkansas. It is a single-story rectangular brick building, with a flat roof and simple styling. A tall front steps down toward the rear of the building, with the side walls capped in ceramic tile. The original building measured only 40 feet deep, in 1910 an addition of 15 feet was added, then as additional 20 feet was added in 1952. The facade is three bays wide, with a center entry flanked by recessed windows. The brick facade was changed from the original design in 1953 as an attempt to modernize the building. Included in the gallery of this article, are a couple photos showing the original facade. A canvas awning extends across the facade. The building was built in 1896, and is significant as the home of The Modern News, which has been Harrisburg&#39;s newspaper until 2018. An account in an 1896 Modern News paper, revealed the correct date of construction to be 1896, rather than the more commonly believed date of 1888. Prior to 1896, it is believed the newspaper was run from the courthouse. L.D. Freeman purchased the newspaper in Harrisburg and changed its name in 1888. Before Freeman bought the business, the newspaper was called The Arkansas Tribune, and it is unclear of what date that started, though it would have been around 1873. It is local folklore that the original printing press that was being replaced was too large and heavy to remove from the structure, so someone went under the building, dug a hole deep enough for the press to fit, cut the floor out from underneath it, and buried it, sealing it with a new concrete floor throughout. It is a great pride the people of Harrisburg, Arkansas have that we possess most all of the original prints of the Modern News Paper in their original binding. Poinsett County Historical Society has worked with the Poinsett County Library to document these fragile historical documents by use of a scanner to help digitize them so they are more accessible to the public. The scans can be seen and studied at the local library just around the corner from the newspaper building. In addition to the collection of Modern News papers, several dozen original copies of The Arkansas Tribune from the 1870s are also still in existence. The building was sold in 2019 from an heir of the original founders. The building is now used as an event venue operating under the same name. The space is used to host parties, weddings, gatherings, etc. This building remains a local landmark, despite the newspaper closing its doors.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<p>The Poinsett County Courthouse is located on a city block of downtown Harrisburg, Arkansas, bounded by Court, North Main, Market, and East Streets. It is a two-story granite and concrete structure, set on a raised foundation. The central block is topped by a tiled hip roof, with an octagonal tower set on a square base at its center. The front facade has a Classical Revival tetrastyle Corinthian portico with a fully enclosed gable pediment. Wings on either side of the main block are lower in height, but project beyond the main block&#39;s front and back. They are capped by low balustrade surrounding a flat roof. The courthouse was designed by Mitchell Seligman of Pine Bluff. Construction began in 1918 and it was completed in 1920. This courthouse was built to replace an earlier courthouse which had been destroyed by fire on May 4, 1917.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<p>This courthouse continues to be used for County government offices. The Poinsett County website can be found at</p><br>
<p>Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington , historically known as the Unitarian Church of Arlington, is a Unitarian Universalist church located at 4444 Arlington Boulevard  in Arlington County, Virginia. Founded in 1948, UUCA was the first Unitarian church in Washington, D.C.s suburbs. Throughout its history, UUCA has taken part in progressive causes from the Civil Rights Movement to the legalization of same-sex marriage in Virginia. During the Civil Rights Movement, UUCA was the only Virginia church to speak out in favor of racial integration. UUCAs sanctuary building, designed by local architect Charles M. Goodman in 1964, is a concrete Brutalist structure that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and Virginia Landmarks Register in 2014. It is one of only three church buildings designed by Goodman and the only one in Virginia.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In the early 1940s, leaders from All Souls Church, established in 1821 as the first Unitarian church in Washington, D.C., encouraged its suburban members to start new Unitarian communities in their respective areas. The first one established in the suburbs was the Unitarian Church of Arlington with support and funds from the "mother church," All Souls. The first meeting was held in George A. Colliers home, located at 832 South Courthouse Road, on September 16, 1943. The following services were held in various spaces on Sunday afternoons so members could still attend the morning services at All Souls. Meeting spaces included the Buckingham Community Room, Ashton Heights Womens Club, and Kate Waller Barrett School. Gilbert A. Phillips, an associate pastor at All Souls, became the Arlington church&#39;s minister in 1946. Membership of the Arlington congregation reached 117 by 1948 while the church school had an enrollment of 103. That same year members voted to establish their own independent church. Their approved resolution stated: "Be it therefore resolved that the Board of Trustees be petitioned to terminate the Fellowship as an instrumentality of All Souls Church as of March 31, 1948, and be it further resolved that this Fellowship then be organized as a Unitarian Church affiliated with the American Unitarian Association."</p><br>
<p>As membership continued to grow, the congregation needed to find a permanent meeting place. The church purchased a 1.07 acre (0.43 ha) lot at the intersection of present-day Arlington Boulevard and South George Mason Drive. The original building was designed by architect and church member Earl B. Bailey. It was a brick Colonial Revival building containing an auditorium, a kitchen, an office for the minister, and a few meeting rooms. By 1950, church membership had reached almost 250. The success of the Arlington church convinced All Souls minister Arthur Powell Davies to establish the Greater Washington Association for Unitarian Advance (later renamed the Greater Washington Association for Unitarian Universalist Churches) in 1950. The organization was founded to assist with establishing additional Unitarian congregations in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area, and All Souls and the Arlington church were its first members.</p><br>
<p>In 1953 a religious education wing, also designed by Bailey, was added to the church building, increasing the size of the auditorium and adding classrooms and offices. By the following year the church building had already reached its capacity and the congregation began holding two services on Sundays. The church school, with an enrollment of over 500, also began holding two services on Sundays. The church purchased adjoining property and in 1958 constructed the parsonage, a -story brick Colonial Revival building. According to one UUCA minister, "Charles Goodman spent a lot of time with the congregation and incorporating the values and theology of the congregation into the design of the building." UUCA&#39;s sanctuary is one of only three churches designed by Goodman and his only church building in Virginia. His other two church designs are Bethesda United Church of Christ in Bethesda, Maryland, and Christ Church of Washington (now called Embassy Church) in Washington, D.C.</p><br>
<p>In the mid-to-late 1960s, attendance at church services and enrollment at the church school experienced dramatic decreases. The congregation replaced their minister and began a campaign to attract new members. Attendance gradually increased over the next several years and by 1974, membership had reached 724. The church continued to thrive throughout the next decade and by the late 1980s, church members decided more space was needed. The congregation held meetings regarding the church expansion throughout the next several years. Finally, in 1993, members approved the construction of an addition to the sanctuary. The new wing, designed by Kerns Group Architects of Washington, D.C., and built by Dustin Construction, Inc. of Gaithersburg, Maryland, was dedicated on October 2, 1994. The addition included classrooms and office space, a chapel, and meetings rooms. The design of the new wing was praised by architectural critics and Kerns Group Architects received an Excellence in Architecture award from the American Institute of Architectss Virginia chapter. An additional expansion, designed by Intec Group of Fairfax, Virginia, and built by Sully Construction of Sterling, Virginia, was added in 2013 and includes a hall space and multipurpose activity room. Prominent members, past and present, at UUCA include Representative William R. Ratchford of Connecticut and Arlington County Board Member Jay Fisette, Virginias first openly gay elected official.</p><br>
<h3>Activism</h3><br>
<p>Like other Unitarian congregations, UUCA is a liberal church that has been active in social justice causes and interfaith dialogue throughout its history. When UUCA was founded, church leaders wrote "Our Church like all Unitarian Churches, is dedicated to the progressive</p><br>
<p>transformation and ennoblement of individual and social life through religion, in accordance with the advancing knowledge and the growing vision of mankind." In 1949, a time when most local organizations were segregated, the church operated a children&#39;s summer camp open to all races. During the 1950s, the church was one of the few places in Northern Virginia where black and white individuals met to discuss race relations and ways to improve society. In 1951, UUCA minister Ross Allen Weston founded the Community Council for Social Progress, an interracial, interfaith group that promoted "full development of</p><br>
<p>democratic principles in human relationship". In June 1956, UUCA minister Weston, who was also president of the Unitarian Fellowship for Social Justice, received a letter of gratitude from Martin Luther King Jr. Following the landmark 1954 Supreme Court decision, Bolling v. Sharpe, which made segregation in Washington, D.C.s public schools illegal, Virginia Governor Thomas B. Stanley sought input from the states citizens. UUCA was the only Virginia church that spoke out in favor of integration.</p><br>
<p>In October 1958, the church received a bomb threat the morning of a sermon by Rabbi Emmet A. Frank of Temple Beth-El. This was part of a larger effort by the American Nazi Party, headquartered in Arlington, to intimidate synagogues and other institutions affiliated with or friendly towards Judaism. The bomb threat was widely condemned by area churches and the Arlington congregation released a statement saying it would not be intimidated, harassed, or coerced to change the way it practiced religion. The church continued to support civil rights causes in the 1960s, registering black voters from Arlington County, and renaming its 1949 building (now demolished) Reeb Hall in honor of James Reeb, an All Souls minister who was killed by segregationists while protesting in Selma, Alabama. Since the 1970s, church members have continued to advocate social justice causes including, but not limited to, environmentalism, womens rights, LGBT rights, and affordable housing. From the 1990s until it was demolished in 2011, Reeb Hall was rented out to nonprofit groups including the Northern Virginia chapter of Habitat for Humanity and Arlington Street Peoples Assistance Network. Since the 1990s, Kol Ami, a Reconstructionist Jewish community, has met at UUCA in the library and fellowship rooms.</p><br>
<h2>Design and location</h2><br>
<p>The church is located on a 3.97 acre (1.61 ha) lot on the southwest corner of Arlington Boulevard (USA 50) and South George Mason Drive near the Arlington Forest neighborhood. The property extends south to First Place South, a residential street where the church parsonage is located. A large parking lot, where Reeb Hall once stood, is on the south and west sides of the property. Church attendees access the building&#39;s 1994 wing from the parking lot via concrete walkways and a concrete pedestrian bridge beneath a steel canopy. South of the church is the Memorial Wall and Garden, dedicated in 1996. The landscaped garden includes concrete walls, paths, and benches. Concrete blocks inscribed with the names of church members are also found throughout the garden. South of the garden is a playground, built in 2007, that is enclosed by a wooden fence. The 1964 sanctuary, which faces the road intersection, is on the northeast corner of the property on a wooded knoll.</p><br>
<p>UUCA is composed of three sections: the 1964 sanctuary is a rectangular-shaped, two-story reinforced concrete building; the 1994 addition is a two-story rectangular-shaped concrete structure on the south side of the sanctuary; the 2013 addition is a two-story square-shaped concrete structure on the east side of the 1994 addition and southeast corner of the sanctuary. The two additions "complement the original building in their scale, style, material, and fenestration pattern, and fulfill Goodman’s original plans to expand the church with additional space for educational, administrative, and social functions." They are set back and at a lower height in deference to the sanctuary.</p><br>
<p>The sanctuary is a precast concrete building designed in the brutalist style. It features an overhanging concrete flat roof, concrete block foundation, and corrugated concrete wall panels. Square clerestory windows are on the north, east, and west sides of the building&#39;s top level and narrow fixed-light windows are on the first floor. The east and west sides of the sanctuary are five bays wide while the north and south sides feature three bays, a large central bay with a smaller bay on each side. The bays are defined by tall concrete columns, spaced 16 ft apart, that stand from the ground to the underside of the roof. Pale blue wooden doors flanked by black wooden frames provide access to the sanctuary while there are two narrow doors on the north side. The main entrance to the sanctuary is on the south side where the 1994 addition is sited. The 1994 addition runs along the entire south side of the sanctuary and extends west past the building. It is a 26,000 ft&sup2; building that includes a social hall, classrooms, and office space. Like the sanctuary, the 1994 addition features a flat roof and concrete foundation. The concrete walls are a lighter color than the sanctuary and are also smoother. A one-story terrace was originally on the southeast corner of the 1994 addition, but this was replaced by the 2013 addition, named the Celebration Center. The Celebration Center is also faced with light-colored concrete and has a random-coursed stone facing on its east side. Similar to the sanctuary, it features an overhanging roof and wrapping clerestory windows.</p><br>
<p>The sanctuarys meeting space measures 62 ft by 62 feet and features a polished reinforced concrete floor set in a large grid pattern. The north, east, and west walls are faced with beige brick while the ceiling is exposed concrete. The sanctuarys design allows for the meeting space to have natural lighting which is complemented by patterned rows of light fixtures along the ceiling. The fixtures are the original black-painted, metal cylinders designed by Goodman. A 2.5 foot (0.76 m) high concrete platform stage, now covered with wood, is on the north wall. It features a wheelchair ramp obscured by a decorative wood screen. Seating in the meeting space is composed of padded, moveable pews and chairs. There are two staircase lobbies on the south side of the meeting space that lead to the first floor. The east staircase provides access to the choir balcony via concrete dogleg stairs and an elevator installed in 1974. Goodman chose to place the choir on the south side of the space because he considered it "the most desirable location for a choir." The balcony features stepped stairs for choir members and a large pipe organ. The ground floor is a north-south corridor plan with an east-west corridor on the south side giving access to the staircases. The lower floor, which includes meeting and storage spaces, features concrete floors in most areas, concrete block dividing walls, and concrete ceilings.</p><br>
<p>The Frys Spring Historic District encompasses a residential neighborhood of Charlottesville, Virginia, which was developed between 1890 and 1963. Prior to its development, it was a largely wooded area owned for much of the 19th century by the Fry family. The 150 acre district is centered on the private Frys Spring Beach Club, whose property includes the eponymous spring, and includes 300 mainly residential buildings with historic character. The architectural styles that predominate in the district are Craftsman and Colonial Revival, although other revival styles such as the Spanish and Tudor Revival are represented by smaller numbers of buildings. There are also four churches in the district. The district extends southward along Jefferson Park Avenue, south of the railroad tracks, and radiates out along Stribling, Todd, Robert, and Raymond Avenues as far as Highland Avenue. Another cluster of streets at the southern end of the district includes Jefferson Park Circle, and portions of Eton Road and Monte Vista Avenue.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. It includes the previously-listed White Cross–Huntley Hall.</p><br>
<p>The Ambajejus Boom House is an historic logging facility in remote central Maine. Built in 1907 on a small island in Ambajejus Lake, it is the only surviving structure associated with the great logging drives that drove the economy of inland Maine for decades. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. The building has been rehabilitated and can be visited by boat from various launch points on the lake.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The boom house is a single-story wood frame structure, set on an island in the northwest corner of Ambajejus Lake, just south of where the West Branch Penobscot River enters the lake. It is about 100 ft long and 15 ft wide, and is divided into three sections. The central portion, which is the oldest part, has a gable roof with an attic area; the other two sections were likely added not long after the first section was built in 1907. The building is on a site where there has been a documented boom house since the 1830s, which was likely a facility mentioned by Henry David Thoreau in his writings about a trip to the area.</p><br>
<p>The house is built at a strategic point in the movement of logs down river toward the paper mills of Millinocket. The island, along with a second one to the north, forms a choke point where a containment boom can be stretched across the river. The booms would be used to collect logs in large numbers, which would then be towed down the chain of lakes to North Twin Dam, where they would be released and sent further downriver. Log drives of this sort took place on the West Branch Penobscot until 1971.</p><br>
<p>The Three States Lumber Company Mill Powerhouse, also known as the Burdette Plantation Company Store, is a historic industrial site on Old Mill Road in Burdette, Arkansas. The only surviving element of what was once a much larger sawmill, the powerhouse is a two-part structure built in 1909 to provide electrical power to the Three States Lumber Company. The northern part of the building is a two-story brick structure with a gable roof, while the southern part is a single-story shed-roof concrete structure, which includes the remnants of a smokestack. The Three States Lumber Company ran a large sawmill on this site between 1906 and 1922, removing most of the structures when its operations shut down. The property was converted into a plantation when the company moved out, and this building became the company store.</p><br>
<p>The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.</p><br>
<p>The Chris Tompkins House is a historic house at 144 South Oak Drive in Burdette, Arkansas. It is a single story wood-frame structure, with a broadly overhanging hip roof and dormer. A porch with wrought iron railing extends across the front of the house, and a carport, added in 1938, is on the north side. The house was built in 1903 by the Three States Lumber Company, a major lumber operator in the early decades of the 20th century in Mississippi County, as a residence for mid-level managers. Burdette was essentially a company town at the time, and this is one of two houses from the period to survive.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.</p><br>
<p>The Leopold David House is a historical building located at 605 West Second Avenue in Anchorage, Alaska. It is a -story bungalow-style house with a wooden frame structure. It features a front-gable roof and dormers. The front facade is divided into two sections: the left with a projecting bay section, and the right with a gabled porch. The roofs have deep eaves with Craftsman-style brackets. The house was built about 1917 for Leopold David , an early resident of Anchorage and its first mayor, elected in 1920. It is one of the best-preserved houses of the period in the city.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>The Norway Historic District encompasses most of the historic village center of Norway, Maine, and is reflective of the town&#39;s growth over 150 years. Although significant early-to-mid 19th century buildings survive in the village, it was significantly damaged by a major fire in 1894, resulting in the construction of a number of new brick and wood-frame buildings. The district, which is 44 acre in size, includes 64 historically significant residential, civic, social, and commercial buildings, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The town of Norway, Maine, was incorporated in 1797, having been settled in the late 1780s. The village center grew on the north side of Pennesseewassee Stream, and is arrayed along Main Street, now designated Maine State Routes 117 and 118, east of a crossing of that stream. Side streets running perpendicular to Main Street are populated with housing, while Main Street is the focus of civic, commercial, and social activity. The major focal points of the district are the Universalist Church, at 45 Main Street, and the Norway Opera House, a brick structure with tower at 219 Main Street. The church was built in 1829, and renovated in the 1860s, giving it its present Italianate styling. The Opera House was built in 1894 in the wake of a devastating fire in May 1894, and became an anchor of the village.</p><br>
<p>In addition to the Opera House, the village was home to a significant number of fraternal social organizations. The Knights of Pythias and International Order of Odd Fellows both built meeting halls in the village, as did the locally unique Weary Club, a social organization for the elderly. The principal civic buildings in the district are a small c. 1866 schoolhouse, the post office, and the library, the latter two being the two main representatives of Depression-era architecture.</p><br>
<p>The residential architecture of the district is mainly 19th century in age. Notable houses include the Asa Danforth House (1830) at 136 Main Street, which is one of the finest brick Federal period houses in western Maine, the James Crooker House (c. 1860–65) at 19 Deering Street, which is a late example of Greek Revival architecture, and the Stephen and Edward Collins House (c. 1886), an architect designed Queen Anne Victorian at 9 Whitman Street. A notable 20th-century house is the Colonial Revival Edward Cummings House at 54 Deering Street, built in 1924 for a member of Norway&#39;s leading industrialists.</p><br>
<p>The Wilkins House is a historic house in Greenville, South Carolina, built in 1878 by Jacob W. Cagle  for merchant and capitalist William T. Wilkins . It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 19, 2016.</p><br>
<p>Wilkins, a native of Spartanburg, South Carolina, engaged in the hardware business in Charleston and New York City prior to the Civil War, though he returned to South Carolina to fight for the Confederacy. By his death in 1895, Wilkins was "a large stockholder in nearly every manufacturing enterprise in Greenville."</p><br>
<p>In 1867, Wilkins married Harriet Dawkins Cleveland (1843–1930) of Greenville, a woman wealthy in her own right; and in 1875 they settled in her hometown. On 93 acres Wilkins built a two-story brick mansion in the Italianate style, reflecting their prominence in the business and social life of the community. An 1898 publication described the house as "the finest home of any man in northern South Carolina." The elegant interior, decorated in high Victorian style, included large crystal chandeliers, bas-relief carvings, and an impressive curved staircase. A conservatory on the north side was crowded with plants and flowers. Even after the death of her husband and only son, Mrs. Wilkins (thereafter always dressed in black) continued to play the grand lady, hosting luxurious dinner parties and being driven to social appointments in an enclosed carriage.</p><br>
<p>On her death in 1930, the house passed to a nephew who leased it to a funeral home, Jones Mortuary, which made superficial modifications to the interior but (among other exterior alterations, including painting the brick white) added a 1,200-square-foot chapel—enough change to make the structure ineligible for inclusion on the National Register. The funeral home closed in 1999, and for ten years the building was used for antique and specialty shops and as a wedding venue.</p><br>
<p>When the now four-acre property was sold to a buyer who wished to demolish the house and build a nursing home and assisted living center, real estate developer Neil Wilson bought the house, intending to preserve and restore it. With assistance from the Palmetto Trust for Historic Preservation and members of the Greenville community, the necessary $720,000 to move the house was raised in 2014. The funeral home additions were demolished, and on September 6, 2014, the approximately 750-ton house was moved a few blocks from Augusta Street to Mills Avenue—probably becoming in the process the heaviest structure ever moved in South Carolina.</p><br>
<p>Although buildings that have been moved are typically ineligible for the National Register, the Wilkins house was considered eligible on the basis of its architecture ("an excellent example of a high-style Italianate residence") and because it was a rare residential construction by Jacob Cagle. In 2017 the Wilkins House earned a State Preservation Award from the South Carolina Department of Archives and History.</p><br>
<p>Murray Hill is an estate at 42910 Edwards Ferry Road, in Loudoun County, Virginia near Leesburg. Just shy of 57 acre, the property includes a 1938 Colonial Revival house, as well as an early 19th-century log dwelling and a number of agricultural outbuildings dating mostly to the 19th century. The main house was built by Stirling Murray Rust, and is a conscious emulation of his familys homestead Rockland, located a few miles away. The estate is within the bounds of the theater of the American Civil War Battle of Balls Bluff; artifacts related to military movements around the battle have been found on the property, as is a portion of a roadway used by Union forces.</p><br>
<p>The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<p>Red Hill is a historic plantation house located near Bullock, Granville County, North Carolina, United States.

<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.</p><br>
<p>Abrams Plains is a historic plantation house located near Stovall, Granville County, North Carolina. The house was built by the forced labor of enslaved people to be the main living quarters of an agricultural estate owned by Samuel Smith, a prominent member of the Granville Count community before, during, and after the Revolutionary War.</p><br>
<p>Named for a battle of the French and Indian Wars, the house consists of parts of a dwelling built about 1766, connected to transitional Federal / Greek Revival style house built in 1830. The main section is a two-story, three-bay by two bay, central hall plan frame dwelling. The 1766 sections are stories and extend from the main house in a "C"-shape. The Abrams Plains plantation also contains a family graveyard for the Smith family which goes back to the original owner of the plantation, Samuel Smith, as well as the graves of enslaved people who worked the plantation.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>Hill Airy is a historic plantation house located near Stovall, Granville County, North Carolina. It was built about 1841, and is a -story, five-bay, vernacular Greek Revival style frame dwelling. It has a central hall plan and exterior double shouldered end chimneys. It also has a large garden on the grounds in the shape of a Maltese cross.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<p>The Osgood Family House is a historic house on Main Street in Fryeburg, Maine. Built c. 1810, this two-story structure is one of the town&#39;s least-altered and best-preserved Federal style houses. It was probably built by Henry Young Brown Osgood, and remained in the Osgood family until 1940. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. It presently houses a law office.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The main block of the Osgood House is a two-story wood-frame structure, five bays in width and depth, with a hip roof and a granite foundation. A two-story gable-roofed ell extends to the west, ending in a small shed which replicates an earlier, similar structure. The main entrance, facing east, is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a louvered fan. A secondary entrance is centered on the south facade, framed by pilasters and a transom window and entablature. The interior follows a fairly typical Federal period central hall plan, with turned newel post and balusters, and applied sawn ornamentation. Federal style paneling, door and window molding, and chair rails decorate the public rooms.</p><br>
<p>The house was probably built by Henry Young Brown Osgood, who was named for one Fryeburg&#39;s early proprietors, although the land was bought, and may have been settled by, his father before him. The house remained in the Osgood family until 1940. Unlike other late-18th and early-19th century houses in Fryeburg, the Osgood House has not had later stylistic alterations made. It underwent a restoration around the time of its listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.</p><br>
<p>The Eklutna Power Plant, also referred to as Old Eklutna Power Plant, is a historic hydroelectric power plant on the Eklutna River in Anchorage, Alaska. Located about 5 mi downstream of the more modern new Eklutna Power Plant, it was built in 1928–29 to provide electrical power to the growing city, and served as its primary power source until 1956. The facilities include two dams, a tunnel and penstock, and a powerhouse. The main dam, Eklutna Dam, located at the northwestern end of Eklutna Lake, was built in 1941 to replace a series of temporary structures built after an earthen dam failed before the plant began operation. The diversion dam, a concrete arch dam, is located 7 mi downstream from the lake, and provides facilities for diverting water into the tunnel. The tunnel is 1,900 ft long, and is terminated in a penstock, a structure designed to raise the water pressure. The powerhouse is a concrete-and-steel structure completed in 1929. The diversion dam removal was completed in 2018 to allow for the passage of salmon.</p><br>
<p>The power plant was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Edward L. Westbrooke Building is a historic commercial building at 505 Union Street in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It is a two-story brick structure, located across the street from the Craighead County Courthouse on a prominent street corner in downtown Jonesboro. It has pronounced Romanesque styling, with arched windows, a recessed entry at the corner below an engaged rounded tower section. It was built in 1899 to house professional offices on the first level and the local Masonic lodge upstairs.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.</p><br>
<p>The C.A. Stuck and Sons Lumber Mill is a historic industrial complex at 215 Union Street in Jonesboro, Arkansas. It consists of four buildings: an office building, a lumber mill, and two storage sheds. All four buildings are brick structures built c. 1890, although the office building was enlarged and given a new facade in 1905. The Stuck mill, which was established in 1889, is one of the oldest properties associated with the early efforts to deforest Craighead County. C.A. Stuck was an Illinois-based furniture builder who moved to Jonesboro to facilitate the production of lumber for his products.</p><br>
<p>The complex was originally listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. In 2018 it was simultaneously delisted and relisted. It was again delisted in 2019.</p><br>
<p>The Doyle Florist Inc.-H.R. Schenkel Inc. Greenhouse Range is a historic commercial garden property at 1339 Englewood Street in Lynchburg, Virginia. Developed beginning in 1920, it is a complex of nine greenhouses, five of which were built in 1920, with the other four added in later years beginning c. 1955. The complex is representative of the rise and fall of the cut flower industry in the nation, which reached its height in the 1950s and has since declined due to strong international competition. The complex also includes a root cellar for plant storage, a packing shed, a farmhouse, and a small brick power plant, on about 7 acre of land. The facility was used for the production and distribution of cut flowers from 1920 to 1999.</p><br>
<p>The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<p>The Security Storage and Safe Deposit Company Warehouse is a historic storage facility at 517-523 Front Street in Norfolk, Virginia. It is a large concrete structure with four levels of storage, and was built in 1916. It is a rare survivor in an area that once had many warehouses, and is distinctive for its subdued decorations, which differentiate it from otherwise nondescript brick or concrete warehouses.</p><br>
<p>The warehouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
