<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Johnson Mill is located on the north side of Maine State Route 5, just south of North Waterboro village. The mill pond is located on the south side of the highway, which crosses over Johnson Stream on a concrete bridge built by mill owner Dennis Johnson in 1920. The mill dam, now breached, lies nearly underneath the bridge. The main mill building, dating to 1902, is a three-part structure, whose largest section is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure with a gabled roof, with a shed-roofed extension along its western side. Attached to the southeastern corner, and extending over the streambed, is a single-story wing with a gable roof oriented parallel to the highway. The main building is set on a concrete foundation, as is most of the wing; the part over the stream is supported by concrete pylons.</p><br>
<p>The building has no obvious main entrance. Its south (street-facing) facade has a pedestrian door and a cargo bay with loading ramp, while the west side has a large sliding door at the southern end, and hinged sections to the north that provide additional illumination and ventilation to the interior. The north side also has two utility entrances. The buildings interior has exposed wall framing and wood plank flooring. A large bandsaw, built by the Berlin Machine Works, is located in the eastern part of the building, and there is also a crosscut saw for trimming ends, an edger/jointer, and planer. A winch provides additional power for moving large pieces of lumber around. The southeast wing houses the "file room", where saw blades were stored and sharpened. The basement of the building houses the remains of a large steam boiler.</p><br>
<p>The mill was established in 1869 by Dennis Johnson, then 23, and was documented to produce 40,000 pine shingles in 1870, operating for four months. The mill was one of six mills operating in Waterboro, typically processing locally harvested lumber. Its output increased around the turn of the 20th century with the introduction of steam power, and employed as many as twelve workers. Johnson built the present structure to replace the earlier mill, which was depicted in 1890 as being somewhat dilapidated. The mill was the only one in town to survive a devastating fire in 1947, which swept through the community and its forests. Dennis Johnson&#39;s grandson Donald closed the mill in 1963. It was acquired by the Waterboro Historic Society in 1974.</p><br>

<p>Wilson District No. 7 School, also known as the O&#39;Meara Schoolhouse, is an historic structure located in rural Clinton County, Iowa, United States near the town of Delmar. The one-room school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. The listing includes three structures: the former school building and two outhouses.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first known school in Clinton County dates to around 1847 in the town of Lyons, which is now the north side of the city of Clinton. Bloomfield Township was established in 1855. The townships first school was a log structure built in 1859 in the town of Bloomfield, which became Delmar in 1871. The town established its own school district in 1874 and built its first school the following year. The township outside of Delmar was served by the Wilson District. It had nine country schools, and each was built to serve the educational needs of four sections of the township. Wilson #7 was built in the early 1880s on land owned by James and Ellen OMeara, and is the only school building that remains of the original nine. It also has its original outhouses, eight of its original school desks, the original teachers&#39; desk and chair, and some of the school books that date from the late 1800s. Electricity and an oil stove were installed in the building in the 1930s.</p><br>
<p>Consolidation of rural schools began during the administration of Theodore Roosevelt who established the National Commission on Country Life in 1908 to find solutions to rural problems, including education. The process of rural school consolidation continued into the 1960s. Wilson #7 closed in 1956 and ended its nearly 75 years of service as a school. The Wilson District itself merged with the Elwood and Delmar school districts in 1962. The building now sits in a dilapidated state, although there are plans to rehabilitate it.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The vernacular-style building is a 18 by frame structure with a vestibule. The side elevations feature three windows each. A brick chimney rises from the center of the west elevation. The school room itself has hardwood wooden floors and plaster walls. On both sides of the vestibule door are eight cupboards with metal latches. A raised platform of 10 in on the west side extends about 9 ft into the room. The oil-burning stove is still extant. The vestibule extends from the main facade on the east. Its interior also has wooden floors and plaster walls. A window is located on the east wall, and hooks with a shelf above them are located on the north wall. The door on the south wall opened unto a porch that is no longer extant.</p><br>
<p>The two outhouses, no longer extant, were built at the same time as the school building. The frame structures were located on the west side of the property, approximately 20 ft from the school. The outhouse to the north was a three-hole privy, with one hole built for an adult. The one to the south was a two-hole privy built for children. The gender of the teacher determined which outhouse was used by which gender.</p><br>

<p>The original dam for the mill, on Dog Creek, was wholly constructed of dry-stacked stone with a single sluice and single gate. Several attempts were made over the years to remove or demolish the dam, but it proved very sturdy, even to dynamite. The center of the dam top was dislodged by dynamite in the mid 1900s and in the late 80s was concreted over to allow large debris flows over the dam and lessen possible damage.</p><br>
<p>The mill was one of the first homes in the area to have electricity, powered by the dam itself and provided milling services for much of the valley.</p><br>
<p>The mill has undergone several attempts to maintain the structure after several, very destructive storm seasons. The original corner column of dry-stacked river rocks was cement encased in 1984 to prevent further damage from debris impacts from floods. Later, additional support beams were added under the main structure in 2004 to prevent collapse of the mill.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Peter Dierks, Sr. immigrated from Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) to the United States in 1848. He made the ocean voyage with other members of his family and landed in New York City. He went to stay with his brother John in Lyons, Iowa, now the north side of the city of Clinton. He rented a farm until he could afford to buy 800 acre of his own land. He lived in a frame dwelling until he built this house in 1865 where he raised his family. He was engaged in general farming until he cleared more land and started a livestock operation. Dierks&#39; became prosperous as he sold off some of his property to other settlers. He died in 1897 and his son, Peter Dierks, Jr., took over the farm and raised his ten children in the house. He added the wood-frame kitchen, with a Queen Anne style porch and pantry wing in 1899. Peter Jr. lost the house during the Great Depression in 1931 to Preston Creveling and his family. A bathroom was added into the house only in 1970. The Creveling family owned the house for almost 60 years when they sold it to Leif and Barbara Solheim in 1990. They sold it to Arlene Rose Considine in March 1996.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>

A two-story porch with square columns, corbels and turned spindles extended the length of the main house. Its possible it was added at the same time as the porch on the addition as the turnings appear to be similar. However, the exact date of its construction is unknown and it has subsequently been removed.</p><br>

<p>John Paul Jones Memorial Park is a municipal park in the town of Kittery, Maine. The trapezoidal park, flanked by the lanes of United States Route 1 approaching the Memorial Bridge across the Piscataqua River, was established in 1926 and named for American Revolutionary War naval hero John Paul Jones. Its centerpiece is a memorial commemorating the soldiers and sailors of the state of Maine, designed by Bashka Paeff. The park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>John Paul Jones Memorial Park is located between Hunter and Newmarch Streets in southern Kittery, just north of the Piscataqua River. The two roadways carry one-way traffic in opposite directions, to and from the Memorial Bridge to Badger&#39;s Island and Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The park is roughly 2 acre, in size, and trapezoidal in shape. It is mostly a flat grassy area, with trees fringing the border and a few specimen trees dotting the park. The southern end of the park is dominated by the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial sculpture of Bashka Paeff, a gold bronze relief sculpture set in a granite frame mounted on a stone plaza.</p><br>
<p>The park is home to three other memorial, all placed in the park after its establishment. The Sloop Ranger monument, originally placed on Badgers Island in 1905, was moved to the park in 1963; it is a bronze tablet mounted in granite, commemorating USS Ranger, Jones first command. The Province of Maine Monument is a bronze tablet mounted in a circular granite pedestal, placed in 1931; it memorializes the chartering of the English Province of Maine to Sir Ferdinando Gorges in 1635. The third memorial is to the United States Marine Corps, and was placed in 1984.</p><br>
<p>The parks construction is intimately bound to the construction of the original Memorial Bridge, which is a war memorial to the military of both Maine and New Hampshire who served in World War I. The bridge was completed in 1923, and Governor Percival Baxter held a design competition for a suitable memorial. Paeffs initial design was acceptable to Baxter, but not his successor, Ralph Owen Brewster, and the memorial was consequently not placed until 1926, after Paeff made alterations to its design. The park was officially named for John Paul Jones by an act of the state legislature in 1927, somewhat obscuring the intent that it be a memorial to World War I soldiers.</p><br>
<p>The S. H. Kress Building is a historic commercial building in downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico. Built in 1925 by the S. H. Kress & Co. department store chain, it is notable as a well-preserved early 20th century retail building.

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>S. H. Kress & Co. purchased land for an Albuquerque store around 1909 but did not build until 1925, when market conditions were judged to be more favorable. The building design was completed in 1924 by architect T. J. T. Hoffman, and construction began in January the following year. The Kress store operated until 1981, when the parent company went out of business. Only minor changes to the building exterior have taken place. Though it’s been vacant for many years, as of 2020 it is currently being renovated by local, Victoria Van Dame. It’s intended to be “a gallery that draws in creatives across all fields – visual, music, performance arts and the culinary arts.”</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The building is similar to many of the other Kress stores built in smaller cities during the 1910s and 1920s. It is a two-story, flat-roofed building occupying a double lot between the old J. C. Penney store and the McCanna-Hubbell Building. The ground floor storefront is cast iron, with large, plate glass display windows under a prism glass clerestory. The display windows curve inward toward the two recessed entrances, which each have aluminum-framed double doors under a glass transom painted with the name of the company.</p><br>
<p>The second floor facade is brown brick highlighted by horizontal bands of white stone molding between the first and second floors, near the top of the building, and along the parapet. There are four pairs of wood-framed sash windows set off by decorative brickwork over a flat horizontal panel which was originally a sign. The building is crowned with a white, blue, and gold terra cotta tile "Kress" logo. The interior of the building is mostly original with large, open retail areas on the first and second floors.</p><br>
<p>The Arthur and Edith Lee House is a historic place located in the Field neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It was originally constructed in 1923. In the early 1930s, Arthur Lee and Edith Lee, an African-American couple, acquired ownership of the home, which came during a period of racial discrimination in housing deeds, and the house was located in a predominately White neighborhood. The Lee family endured violent threats from White neighbors and eventually moved out of the house in 1934 after several years of unrest. The home had renewed interest in the 2000s from scholars of racial discrimination in housing and it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The home was built in 1923 and has similarities to kit houses common to the era.</p><br>
<p>In 1927 hundreds of property owners in the area had created the Eugene Field Neighborhood Association and signed a "gentleman&#39;s agreement" with the neighborhood association pledging to not sell or rent their property to non-Whites. This group had success purging much of the blocks around 46th and Columbus of non-whites. It was only by one neighbor with an unsettled grudge that the Lees were allowed any chance to buy into the neighborhood.</p><br>
<p>In June 1931 Arthur and Edith Lee, an African-American couple, purchased the home with a down payment and a mortgage. The Lees moved in July and shortly the neighborhood association formed a committee to offer them $5000 for the house they had just paid $4700 for. Lee asked for $7500 and negotiations ended.</p><br>
<p>Around July 8 neighbors began to harass them with shouted insults and violent threats. By Saturday July 11 the crowd numbered about 150. The Lees kept their house darkened, stones pelted the siding as the porch and garage were splashed with a black paint or similar substance.</p><br>
<p>The unrest escalated over the next several days as crowds growing into the hundreds and later thousands continued their campaign of harassment. The yard was littered with signs bearing racial slurs as garbage and excrement joined the hurled objects.</p><br>
<p>Local police, including captain A. C. Jensen were sent to maintain the peace but offered little additional support to the Lees. It was only on Sunday the 12th that arrests were even threatened, citing this to be an unlawful gathering. This night was only quelled by the captain suggesting the neighborhood association meet with the mayor and a committee of colored leaders to seek a solution.</p><br>
<p>Mayor Anderson claimed he could not interfere and implied the situation did not beg his responsibility to uphold law and order.</p><br>
<p>On July 15 the Minneapolis Tribune broke a media blackout The publicity from the article generated even larger crowds as well as onlookers. All available police in the city were called to form a cordon around the house and ensure nearby streets were not blocked by the mob.</p><br>
<p>Discussions with the neighborhood and community leaders during this unrest had been unproductive with the Lees attorney advising them to say they were planning to leave to quell the unrest. The Lees were members of the local NAACP chapter and reached out to them for assistance. Lena O. Smith, the chapters president, offered legal assistance and argued the Lees should remain as a statement that they would not be intimidated. The Lees accepted Smith&#39;s counsel and she drafted a statement published in all of the local newspapers noting that " has no intention of moving now or later, even after we are assured the feeling in the district has subsided."</p><br>
<p>The police presence remained at the Lees house for more than a year thereafter; the Lees daughter was escorted to and from school by police.</p><br>
<h2>Legacy</h2><br>
<p>Interest in the homes history was renewed in 2001 when a law professor published an article on the Lees second attorney, Lena O. Smith, including her role in the event. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2014 on the basis of its significance to the social history of African Americans and housing discrimination in Minneapolis. There is now a plaque and effigy prominently displayed on the corner of the lot.</p><br>
<p>The Old City Hall is a five-story building in Tacoma, Washington that served as the city hall in the early 20th century. The building features a ten-story clocktower on the southeast corner, facing the intersection of Pacific Avenue and S 7th Street.</p><br>
<p>The building uses masonry bearing walls combined with numerous windows. The windows on the second and third floors are of equal size. The fourth story windows are arched at the top. The fifth story windows are smaller and narrower.</p><br>
<p>The foundation is a local Wilkeson stone, which is light gray. The walls are eight feet thick at the base and taper to six feet at street level. They are covered with a façade of red brick faced with yellow Roman brick. These bricks are believed to have been ballast from China or Belgium or to have been imported from Italy. The tower is a freestanding masonry with a clock on each face.</p><br>
<p>The building is a trapezoid in plan and reflects the Italian Villa style. Small round windows appear below the corner line; three large round windows occur below the corner on the tower.</p><br>
<p>The tower&#39;s base has heavy brackets above the corner of the main structure and narrow rectangular windows on the tower body. A group of three arched windows are at the top on each side. A row of small round windows circles the tower between the arched windows and the eave line. Terra cotta decorations embellish the tower and areas of the entablature. The tower has a clock and a set of four bells. The clock and the bells were cast by the McShane Bell Foundry in Baltimore, the same company that cast the Liberty Bell. The bells is 8,000 lb of silver bell metal. Hugh Campbell Wallace of Tacoma, who would later become the United States ambassador to France, gave the bells and chimes in memory of his daughter on Christmas Day, 1904. The bells were removed during the 2023 restoration due to being a seismic hazard and conflicting with current building codes. The pendulum of the clock, 12 ft in length, is suspended on a single wire, 40 ft in length. The mechanism is gravity run and the motors are wound electrically.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Tacoma was a railroad town, acting as the western terminus of the Northern Pacific Railroad. Attracted by the potential of financial success, businessmen from the Midwest came to the city. They brought with them a culture and the Old City Hall is an example of those tastes. The old Tacoma City Hall was completed April 23, 1893 at a cost of $257,965 and was used by the city until 1957. The structure is representative of the ebullience of spirit that characterized the city of Tacoma in the late 19th century; it "...seems to combine a romantic feeling for the spirit of fifteenth century Florence with the mercantile spirit of nineteenth century America."</p><br>
<h2>Edward Hatherton</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by the San Francisco firm, Hatherton and Mclntosh. Edward Hatherton (b. 1836 d. 1896) had established a private architecture practice in San Francisco in the 1870s, and was hired in 1877 as a draftsman and assistant to prominent architect August Laver in 1877. Laver, an English architect who moved San Francisco from Canada 1871 when he won a design competition for San Franciscos new City Hall, resigned soon thereafter due to health complications and problems with the City Hall construction project, and Hatherton assumed Lavers role on the project. Hatherton established his own practice with John Cotter Pelton in 1879, before assuming the position of City Architect of San Francisco in 1888.</p><br>
<p>Hatherton resigned his position in 1891 to relocate to Tacoma, WA. That same year, Hatherton formed a new firm in Tacoma with Australian-born architect Colin McIntosh, and together they designed numerous commercial and residential buildings in Tacoma, including the new City Hall Building and the Chamber of Commerce Building (1892).</p><br>
<p>On March 1, 1896, Hatherton was reported missing from his home in San Francisco. He had last been seen at his office the day before, on February 29. On March 20, newspapers reported that it was suspected that Hatherton, despondent over the financial losses incurred in Tacoma during the recent financial panic, had committed suicide. A week later those suspicions were confirmed.</p><br>
<h2>Redevelopment</h2><br>
<p>In March 2019, after three rounds of competitive bidding, the Tacoma City Council announced that it had awarded Surge Tacoma the right to purchase and redevelop Old City Hall. The purchase price was $2 million plus $2 million in kind donations over the next 10 years. Surge Tacoma has a budget of $15 million for the project, which will include 40 micro apartments, two restaurants, retail space on the first two levels, a basement "speakeasy" in the old jail, and office and co-working space. They have also launched a national competition for the restoration of the clock tower. They plan on opening for business on New Year&#39;s Eve 2021 by "ringing in the new year" on the old clock tower.</p><br>

<p>The Jean E. Hooker School-Berlin High School, most recently the Kensington Grammar School, was a historic school complex at 462 Alling Street in Berlin, Connecticut. Built in 1910, the building served as both the town&#39;s first high school, and as a private school before being converted to an elementary school and finally closing in 1975. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012; it was demolished in 2014.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The site of the former Jean E. Hooker School-Berlin High School was at the southeast corner of Alling and Grove Hill Streets, about 1/2 mile from the commercial center of Kensington. The building had two sections: the original 1910 block, and the 1931 addition. The 1910 block was a two-story brick structure, nine bays wide and seven deep, with brownstone trim. The bricks were sourced from local brickyards (a major 19th-century industry in Berlin), and its brickwork was of unusually high quality. It had terra cotta frieze panels depicting a variety of subjects, including St. George slaying the dragon. The 1931 addition was built with similar styling, but also included some Art Deco motifs.</p><br>
<p>The 1910 school was Berlins first centralized elementary school. It was designed by Unkelbach and Perry of New Britain, and was built by Thomas Crowe, also of New Britain. By 1919 the school was already over capacity due to the towns growth. That growth also prompted the town to consider building a high school for its older students, who were being educated in the high schools of neighboring communities. In 1931, the Jean E. Hooker School was built as an addition to the grammar school, designed by Hartford architect Frederic Teich.</p><br>
<p>The school close in 1975, and the building was sold to a developer in 1999. After several failed redevelopment proposals, it was sold to St. Paul Roman Catholic Church in 2013.</p><br>
