<p>The Medburyville Bridge is a historic bridge in Wilmington, Vermont. It is a steel Warren through bridge, built in 1896 across the Deerfield River, just south of Vermont Route 9 roughly midway between the centers of Wilmington and Searsburg. It stands just upstream of the Woods Road bridge, which functionally replaced it in 1985. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Medburyville Bridge is a double-intersection steel Warren through truss bridge, a variant of the standard Warren patent in which two sets of triangular elements provide increased rigidity to the trusses. It was, at the time of its listing on the National Register, one of two such bridges in Vermont. It is 97 ft long and has a nominal roadway width of 14.1 ft, although its decking has been taken up and only the supporting substructure is visible. Its portals have a clearance height of 14.8 ft, and the bridge deck is nominally about 17.5 ft above the river. The bridge rests on uncoursed rubblestone abutments.</p><br>
<p>According to town records, just over $1500 was spent on a bridge in Medburyville in 1896. The builder was the Vermont Construction Company, the states first fabricator of metal truss bridges. At the time, the state had not yet standardized on bridge designs, so the choice of design was probably made by the town. The bridge survived the states massive 1927 floods, and continued in active service until 1985, when the bridge just downstream was built. The town turned ownership of the bridge over to the state, whose historic preservation commission is responsible for its maintenance.</p><br>

<p>Milldean and the Alexander-Davis House, also known as Eaglebrook and the Eagle Hotel, are a pair of historic houses on Main Street in the village center of Grafton, Vermont. Built c. 1826 and c. 1831, the two houses are statewide rare examples of a transitional Federal-Greek Revival style executed in brick. They are also historically significant for their association with Grafton&#39;s textile trade, which was economically important in the mid-19th century. The houses were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Milldean and Alexander-Davis Houses stand in the center of Grafton Village, opposite the Grafton Grocery Market. The two houses each stand with a gable facing the street, and additions extending northward, toward the Saxtons River. They were built for Peter Dean and Lucius Alexander, co-owners of a textile mill that stood on the river bank north of Milldean (the left house of the pair). Both originally presented an early example of the Greek Revival side-hall plan, executed with predominantly Federal details.</p><br>
<h3>Alexander-Davis House</h3><br>
<p>The Alexander-Davis House was the first of the two houses to be built (c. 1826), and is also the most-altered of the pair. It is now five bays wide, with a two-story front porch, both alterations the result of its conversion in 1840 into a hotel. The original part of the house is the left three bays, whose brick is laid in six-course American bond, while the right two bays are laid in seven-course American bond. The entrance is in what is now the center bay, set in a slightly recessed semi-oval arch, with flanking sidelight windows and a transom below the blind arch. A distinguishing feature of the interior of this house is artwork on its walls that is attributable to the itinerant artist Moses Eaton, Jr.</p><br>
<h3>Milldean</h3><br>
<p>Milldean was built c. 1831, and was originally nearly identical in appearance to the Alexander-Davis House. It has a three-bay facade, with the entrance in the rightmost bay (as that of the other house would originally have been set), with identical styling. The interior has retained most of its original finish, having undergone some alteration and renovation in the 1980s. Wood-frame ells extend to the rear, connecting the house to a modern carriage barn.</p><br>

<p>The Dulcito Plantation is a historic house built c. 1850, and formally was a Southern sugar plantation, located at 5918 West Old Spanish Trail  near New Iberia, Louisiana. This is one of the few remaining buildings of the area that highlights the pre-Civil War architectural heritage, despite having some alterations. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 22, 1994.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Settlement of what would later become the Iberia Parish began in the mid-eighteenth century, and by the end of the century the area was well-populated around Spanish Lake and Bayou Teche. In June 1797, Jacques Fontenette petitioned the Spanish governmental authorities to acquire the tract of land where Dulcito is now located.</p><br>
<p>The exact date of the structure is unknown, and there had been rumors of it being built in the late 18th century. The current estimated built date of this house is c. 1850, and is based on the architectural evidence of the use of circular sawn timbers and bond brick basement. The plantation house is a -story frame structure, built mainly in French Creole style.</p><br>
<p>In April and May 1863 during the Bayou Teche campaign, and again in October of the same year during the Great Texas Overland Expedition, the house remained in possession of the Federal authorities. It was also used as a temporary field hospital for Confederate soldiers. After the American Civil War, the land and house were owned by James L. Burke. Later it was owned by Elias A.Pharr (starting in October 1882), and B.F. Trappey and Sons, Inc. (starting in 1949). In 1954, the Trappey family started the process of modernizing the structure.</p><br>
<p>For many years, Bernard Trappey and his sons hosted a hot pepper eating contest at Dulcito Plantation; and he often surprising locals with his Habanero peppers (at a time when jalapeño peppers were more common).</p><br>
<h2>Modern day</h2><br>
<p>Despite some alterations, the house still maintain its historical relevance. It is one of the remaining buildings that represents Iberia Parish&#39;s pre-Civil War architectural heritage.</p><br>
<p>In 2017, the house and 54 acres of land were put on sale for $3,200,000 USD. The landscaping around the house includes old Magnolia trees and ancient oak trees.</p><br>
<p>The Darby Plantation was a Southern plantation located in what is now part of New Iberia, Louisiana 2.1 mi northwest of downtown, but what was once a rural landscape. After the historic plantation housed burned down, a replica was built in its place.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Darby Plantation was founded by Jonathan Darby, an Englishman who immigrated from France in 1719. Francois inherited the Darby plantation from his father, Jean-Baptiste St. Marc Darby. It remained in family ownership for more than 150 years.</p><br>
<p>The house c. 1813 had two stories, with a central hall plan. The first story was solid brick; the second story was briquette-entre-poteaux, with full or broken brick filling spaces between heavy cypress posts. It was built between 1813 and 1820 for Francois St. Marc Darby and his wife, Felicite de St. Amant.</p><br>
<p>During mid 1970s, the already abandoned house, at that time it was property of Attakapas Historical Society, was completely destroyed by fire.</p><br>
<p>Around 2002, architect Perry Segura started building a replica of the mansion at its original place, while modifying its original appearance. The water cistern near the house was replaced by a three-car garage, the exterior stairs were moved inside the house, the porch which wrapped the house on three sides is present only on the front and the back, and dormers were added to the roof in order to let light enter attic space. The inside is also quite differently organized as living quarters are now located downstair.</p><br>
<p>The mansion was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 26, 1973. The house was removed from the National Register of Historic Places list in January 2019.</p><br>

<p>Corinth Village, also known as the Skinner Settlement Historic District and West Corinth, is an early 19th-century rural crossroads village in the small town of Corinth, Maine. Centered at the junction of Ledge Hill and West Corinth Roads, the village includes a number of buildings constructed before 1850, one of which may have been the first frame structure built in the area. The village was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The town of Corinth is a rural community northwest of Bangor in the interior of Maine. The town&#39;s first settler, Daniel Skinner, arrived in what is now called West Corinth, and built a log cabin in 1793. C. 1810–15 Skinner built the Cape style frame house that now stands on West Corinth Road, east of its junction with Ledge Hill Road in the northwestern portion of the town. From this modest beginning a small village grew around the crossroads, with a general store, district schoolhouse, and a handful of other farmhouses, stretched mainly along Ledge Hill Road between West Corinth and Mccard Roads. The settlement, one of four early settlements in the town, was eclipsed by East Corinth in civic importance when the town hall and first church were located in the latter village in the 1830s.</p><br>
<p>The village was economically successful until roughly the period of the American Civil War. Services included two general stores (both with meeting halls on the second floor, a tavern, blacksmith, and cooper. Industry was always at a low scale, including brief periods in which oars, carriages, and sleds for the transport of lumber were manufactured. The village in the 1840s received the town&#39;s second church, a clapboarded Greek Revival building dedicated in 1849 and little altered since. Of the commercial and industrial facilities, only one of the stores remains standing. Most of the houses are modest 1–1/2 story Cape style wood frame structures, sometimes with ells connecting them to a barn.</p><br>
<p>The Nathaniel Hawthorne Boyhood Home is a historic house at Raymond Cape Road and Hawthorne Road in Raymond, Maine.

Its interior, now much altered, serves as a function space for a community organization dedicated to its preservation. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Hawthorne Boyhood Home is located in northern Raymond, near the border with Casco to the north, at the southeast corner of Hawthorne Road and Raymond Cape Road. It is a rectangular -story wood-frame structure, with a side gable roof, brick end chimneys, and clapboard siding. Its main façade faces north toward Hawthorne Road, and is five bays wide, with an elaborate center entrance that has flanking sidelight windows and pilasters, and is topped by a wide Federal-period fan. Its windows and corners are otherwise trimmed modestly. The interior is reflective of the building&#39;s later 19th-century uses as a dance school, tavern, and church, and consists of three large rooms.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built about 1812 by Dr. Richard Manning, who was an uncle to Nathaniel Hawthorne. Hawthorne is known to have lived for some years with his uncle in this house, and probably continued to visit it during his years at Bowdoin College (1822–25). The house was known in its early years as "Mannings Folly", because of Mannings extravagant wallpaper, large fireplaces, and expensive Belgian glass windows. Manning eventually moved back to Salem, Massachusetts, and the house was converted into a tavern. Manning left a bequest to the town for the construction of a church in South Casco, which was used, instead of building a new church, to convert his old house into one in 1839. The house has been owned by the Hawthorne Community Association, a local group dedicated to the building&#39;s preservation.</p><br>
<p>The Houghtonville Historic District encompasses a cluster of residential properties that are all that remain of one of the early industrial areas of Grafton, Vermont. Located west of Grafton Village on Houghtonville Road , it includes ten well-preserved 19th-century houses, some located on properties where early mills once stood. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The area that is now Grafton was first chartered in 1754, but only began to see permanent settlement in the late 1770s, in the town&#39;s Middletown section. Grafton Village developed around the confluence of two branches of the Saxtons River, a tributary of the Connecticut River. Houghtonville, located about 3 mi up the North Branch Saxtons River from Grafton Village, developed around a mill and homesteads established on the river by the Houghton family. The mills operated through the 19th century, closing in the early 20th century. The village grew to include a post office and schoolhouse, both buildings still standing. In the 1910s and 1920s some of the older houses were rehabilitated for use as summer residences.</p><br>
<p>The historic district extends westward along Houghtonville Road, from its junction with Cabell Road past the junction with Stagecoach Road. It includes properties a short way up Stagecoach Road, as well as the bridge across the River on Cabell Road, which is an early concrete bridge built about 1921 (or possibly after the New England Hurricane of 1938; there is some disagreement in available documentation). The district includes three large farm properties, whose acreage contributes to the rural feel of the area; most of the other buildings are set on small lots close to the road. Also included are the archaeological remains of two of the mills that once powered the village economy.</p><br>

<p>Sharon Cemetery Historic District is located in rural Harrison Township, Lee County, Iowa, United States near the town of Farmington. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<p>The buildings in the district belong to Sharon Presbyterian Church and the cemetery in the churchyard. They include the church itself (1885), the manse (1918), the sexton&#39;s house (1899), and the toilet rooms and lavatory (c. 1902). The buildings are all of frame construction. The cemetery itself is the contributing site. It was divided into two sections. The oldest section is 4 acre and was established in the 1860s. The newer section, also four acres, surrounds the older section and was added in 1899. O.C. Simonds was a landscape architect who laid out the rural cemetery and created a plan for plantings on the property, but it is unclear how closely the plan was followed. An American Revolutionary War soldier who died in Lee County was reburied in the cemetery and a grave marker for him was erected in 1907 by an act of the Iowa General Assembly. The contributing object is a water fountain with a galvanized iron basin that is located at the junction of the entry-drive and the loop driveway. Other contributing structures include the driveways, entry gate, walkways, drainage system, stone curbs, hitching posts, and the coping, fence, and pedestrian gates.</p><br>

An open arch shelters stairs that rise to the front door, which also features a lancet-arch window, and is flanked by sidelight windows. The interior of the house retains significant early original features, including wide pine flooring and woodwork in its front parlors.</p><br>
<p>The house was built about 1842 for John Plummer, an Addison native and ship&#39;s captain, who later engaged in merchant business, lumbering, and politics, serving in the state senate during the American Civil War. It is unclear exactly when the Gothic Revival vestibule was added; it may have been around the time Plummer became politically active. The house remained in the Plummer family until about the turn of the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The Hunnewell House is one of the oldest surviving structures in the United States state of Maine. Located on Old County Road near Black Point Road in Scarborough, Maine, this modest single-story building was probably built in 1702-03 by Richard Hunnewell, who had first settled in Scarborough in 1684. Although, the exact year of construction is in doubt, with some accounts listing it as 1673. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. It is now owned and maintained by the town.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Hunnewell House is located in central Scarborough, in a triangular wooded island formed by Black Point Road (Maine State Route 207), Old County Road, and Winnocks Neck Road. It is a -story Cape style wood-frame structure, three bays wide, with clapboard siding and a stone foundation. Its windows are 19th-century sash windows, and the main door is topped by a four-light transom window. The interior of the house follows a typical central-chimney plan, with a small entry vestibule with a winding staircase to the attic, and rooms to either side. Trim and decoration are minimal.</p><br>
<p>Although Maine was settled by European colonists in the 17th century, most of its settlements were abandoned as a result of either King Philips War (1675–78) or King Williams War (1688-97). Richard Hunnewell, a veteran of King Philips War, was one of the signatories to Scarboroughs incorporation in 1684. His wife and child were killed in an Indian raid, he was a leader of the local militia and supposedly carried an implacable hatred of Native Americans. The small community was abandoned in 1690 due to continuing Native raids and was reoccupied in 1702. It is believed that the present Hunnewell House was built early in this reoccupation; Hunnewell was killed in a major raid on Maine coastal communities in 1703, early in Queen Annes War. The community survived, and Hunnewells widow (who survived the raid) lived here until her death in 1732.</p><br>
<p>The house was originally located in a field off Old County Road. It sat abandoned for many years, until its historical significance was established in 1971 by the local Rotary Club. The house was given to the town, and moved to its present location in 1973, where it has since undergone restorative work.</p><br>
<h2>The Other Hunnewell Houses</h2><br>
<p>On Hunnewell Road at the peak of the hill, there are two Hunnewell houses that are said to have been built in the 1670s by Richard and Roger Hunnewell and their families. The larger, built by Richard, was said to have been built in 1671 and later burned down. It was rebuilt in 1731 and stands today. At the intersection of the high ridge behind Rogers house and the old Douphinette property, there is a Hunnewell family cemetery identifiable today only by the depressions in the ground. The gravestones for Richard and Roger were in a closet at Richards house last I knew. According to a neighbor, the rest of the headstones were discarded long ago at the rear of the 71 acre property. We never did find them.</p><br>
<p>It was said that the Hunnewell barn was a stop for the Concord to Portland Stagecoach. In conjunction with that story, it was said that a stage carrying a shipment of gold headed to Concord was attacked and captured on the trail between the Nonesuch and the Richard Hunnewell homestead, and the gold was never recovered. Allegedly the Natives buried the gold box under a large boulder somewhere on the Hunnewell property. It had not been recovered by the time I was left there in 1968.</p><br>
<p>There was at least one murder in the history of the property; and one suicide in which a depressed lady drowned herself in the well near the rear entry of Richards house. Richards homestead included an excellent apple orchard, a large blueberry patch, a large vegetable garden, a gravel/sand pit or two, lots of forest and bordered the Nonesuch River on one side.</p><br>
<p>Based on the personal experiences of Kenneth A. Capron who lived there 1956 - 1968, spending his entire childhood digging under boulders!</p><br>

Its grandstand has a capacity of about 1800, with another 600 in the bleachers. The field is 315 ft down the foul lines and 390 ft to center field.</p><br>
<p>The Temple House is a historic house at 1702 South Oak Street in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. It is a two-story brown brick structure, with a low-pitch hip roof and broad eaves typical of the Prairie School of architecture. A single-story flat-roof porch extends across the front, continuing to a form a porte-cochere to the left, with brick piers and low brick wall with stone coping. The house was built c. 1910 to a design by the architectural firm of Theo Sanders.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Primrose Mill is a historic structure located in the unincorporated community of Primrose, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The mill itself is a three-story, rectangular, brick structure capped with a combination gambrel-jerkinhead roof. It is built on a limestone foundation. A corbelled brick frieze with a dentil pattern and a corbelled cornice follows the eaves line around the building. The cornice is partly returned at each corner. A Gothic gable dormer with a tall arched window is centered on each side of the roof. Its founding and operation is associated with the German population of the village, which may also explain the high degree of craftsmanship and the attention to decorative details found on the building.</p><br>
<p>John McGreer Barn and Crib are a historic building  and structure  located in rural Harrison Township, Lee County, Iowa, United States. They are located on a farm northwest of the town of Donnellson. The agricultural buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.</p><br>
<p>The barn was built in 1884 in the Pennsylvania barn style. It measures 76 by, and features a cupola on top. While the basement level, composed of rubble limestone walls, is banked into a slight slope, it is largely exposed all-around. The upper portions of the barn are covered with vertical board-and-batten siding. A pole shed has been added off of the back of the building. The corn crib is located west of the barn. The 32 by structure was built around the same time as the barn. It is also banked into the same slope. Like the barn, it has a rubble limestone basement, board-and-batten siding on the upper level, and a round arch window in its front gable end. The barn and corn crib were two of 13 extant buildings at the time of their nomination on the former John and Julia McGreer farmstead. The farm itself had been established in 1837 by Johns parents Alexander and Jane McGreer. The extant farm buildings are largely from John McGreers ownership. They are historically significant for their association with his "large and prosperous livestock operation."</p><br>
<p>Christian and Katharina Herschler House, Barn, and Outbuildings Historic District are historic buildings located in Franklin, Iowa, United States. The historic district, now known as the Christian Herschler Winery, is located on the edge of town. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. It also includes two noncontributing buildings: a two-room brick structure and a cement foundation. The Herschlers raised their own grapes and operated the town&#39;s only winery.</p><br>
<p>The house is a two-story limestone structure. The 44 by structure was built over a walk-in basement. The Herschler&#39;s extended the house to the west in 1871, and the dormers and porch were added to the south side of the house at that time. The L-shaped barn was also built in 1865. The main part of the barn measures 40 by. It too was enlarged to the west in 1871. The project enclosed the well and connected the outhouse and the lean-to to the barn. The wooden shed to the south of the house is thought to be the summer kitchen.</p><br>
<p>The Herschlers overextended themselves. A year after they expanded their buildings they were forced to sell their property and its contents at a Sheriff&#39;s sale. They moved to California in 1874.</p><br>

<p>The Philler Cottage, previously the Dark Harbor House Inn, is a historic house at Pendleton Point and Jetty Roads in Islesboro, Maine. Built in 1894 for a wealthy Philadelphia banker, it is a high-quality regional example of a Georgian Revival summer house. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The town of Islesboro occupies an eponymous island in Penobscot Bay, on the central Maine coast. The island is roughly shaped as two lobes joined by a narrow isthmus. The Philler Cottage is located close to the village of Dark Harbor, at the northern end of a peninsula that juts south from the southern lobe of the island. It is set on a roughly triangular property bounded on the north by Pendleton Point Road (the main north–south road on that part of the island) and on the south by Jetty Road. The house is a -story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof, clapboard siding, and a two-story servants wing extending to one side. The roof is pierced by two brick chimneys and several dormers with gable roofs, and is topped by a widow&#39;s walk railing. The long sides of the house each have an entrance sheltered by a porch with Tuscan columns, and an upper-level balustrade with posts topped by urns. A two-story porch, also supported by Tuscan columns, adorns the west side.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1894–96 to a design by architect Fred Savage of Bar Harbor, Maine, for George Philler, a wealthy banker from Philadelphia. Philler was one of a number of Philadelphia businessmen who organized an exclusive resort development in the Dark Harbor area, which was anchored by the now-lost Islesboro Inn. The house had served as the Dark Harbor House Inn, which is now closed.</p><br>
<p>Intervale Farm is a historic farm property at 1047 Intervale Road in New Gloucester, Maine, United States. Its brick farmhouse, built early in the 19th century, is one of the few Federal style brick houses in the rural community, and the connected farmstead is one of the area&#39;s early examples of the type. A portion of the farm (34 acre was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. It is an active operation, raising vegetables and beef.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Intervale Farm is located in southern New Gloucester, on the west side of Intervale Road (Maine State Route 231). It consists of 118 acre (down from a maximum of 275 acre once associated with the farm), of which 34 acre around the main farmhouse are under active cultivation, producing a variety of crops. The main house is a two-story brick structure, with a hip roof and a series of wood-frame additions connecting it to a barn. The main facade faces east, toward the street, and is symmetrical, five bays wide, with a center entrance flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a Federal style wooden fan. The interior follows a traditional center-hall plan, somewhat altered by the addition of bathrooms and the repurposing of the original kitchen to serve as bedrooms. It retains modest original Federal period woodwork.</p><br>
<p>The early history of the house lacks clear documentation, but may well have been built by Jabez Cushman, an early owner of the land who was quite wealthy, and active in local civic affairs. It has been assigned a construction date of about 1811 based on an inscription on one of its attic beams. The relatively large size and sophisticated style of the house (built when most houses in the area were single-story Capes) suggest it was built by a person of some stature. The connected farmstead seen today reached its approximate configuration sometime before 1870, when it is documented in a photograph.</p><br>
<p>The Middletown Rural Historic District encompasses an area that was once the town center of Grafton, Vermont. Located northwest of Grafton Village along Middletown Road and adjacent roads, it includes nine well-preserved 19th-century properties, as well as the town&#39;s first cemetery and animal pound. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The area that is now Grafton was first chartered in 1754, but only began to see permanent settlement in the late 1770s. The town&#39;s first civic center was located on a hill near the geographic center of town, which is now at the center of the Middletown Rural Historic District. This area would by 1830 be economically eclipsed by Grafton Village and other areas along the Saxtons River. The area is now largely rural, with a small cluster of buildings at the corner of Middletown and Woodchuck Hill Road.</p><br>
<p>The district extends along most of the length of Middletown Road, between Grafton Village and its northern end at Vermont Route 121. Several dead-end spur roads radiate from Middletown Road, which also have contributing properties. The oldest resources in the district are the cemetery and the Hall House, both dating to about 1790. Most of the houses in the district are wood-frame structures, in either Federal or Greek Revival style, with three examples of brick construction. The old town pound, its stone walls dating to about 1808, is near the cemetery, and an 1856 schoolhouse stands at the junction of Middletown Road with Route 121, marking the northernmost end of the district.</p><br>
<p>The Little Rock Confederate Memorial is a stone memorial marker in Little Rock National Cemetery, Little Rock, Arkansas. Set in an overflow area of the cemetery on 21st and Barber Streets, it is a granite obelisk, mounted in a concrete base, measuring 18 ft in height and a square base 67 in per side. Midway up the west side of the obelisk "U.D.C." is inscribed, with "1913" at the base of that side. Inscriptions on the sides of the base commemorate fallen Confederate Army soldiers. It was placed in 1913, paid for by the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. The ceremony marked the first time that the federal government formally took charge of a former Confederate military cemetery.</p><br>
<p>The memorial was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.</p><br>
<p>The former Little Rock YMCA is a historic building in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a large four-story brick building, with Mission Revival styling that includes a tower rising to an arcaded open top story. It was built in 1928, and was one of the largest projects of Little Rock&#39;s leading architectural firm of the period, Mann and Stern. The building has since been converted to commercial uses.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The "Little Rock" is the eponym of Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a now-reduced stone outcrop, projecting into the Arkansas River from its south bank, in the city&#39;s waterfront area, adjacent to the Junction Bridge, whose foundations include a portion of the rock. A portion of the rock outcrop has had a bronze plaque mounted on it. The rock, originally estimated to rise about 18 ft above the river, was first identified as a significant river landmark in 1722 by French explorer Jean-Baptiste Bénard de la Harpe. In 1818 the rock was used as a survey marker, and formed the starting point for land surveys in the region south of the river.</p><br>
<p>The Little Rock was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970.</p><br>
<p>The Park-to-Park Residential Historic District in Fort Madison, Iowa, United States, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. The historic district is located to the north of the Downtown Commercial Historic District, generally between Central Park on the west and Old Settler&#39;s Park on the east. Both parks are contributing sites. For the most part the district is made up of single family homes built in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Some of these homes were built as rental properties, while others became so in later years. The Albright House and the Chief Justice Joseph M. Beck House are contributing properties, and they are also individually listed on the National Register. There are also duplexes and a few small scale apartment buildings in the district.</p><br>
<p>The Historic Park to Park District is a seven-block-long, three block wide section of homes that represent the Gothic, Victorian, and Tudor era. With a rich variety of architectural styles like Gothic Revival, Italianate, Second Empire, Eastlake Stick, Richardson Romanesque, Queen Anne, and Tudor. With two of the six parks within the District.</p><br>
<p>Given its location adjacent to the central business district there are no historic commercial buildings located in its boundaries. Institutions in the district include buildings erected by local governments and churches. The Lee County Courthouse (1842) and jail (c. 1850) are located across the street from the downtown area. A combination building houses the Fort Madison City Hall and a fire station (1873). The former St. Josephs Catholic Church complex (various buildings from the 1850s to the 1920s) is located near Old Settlers Park, while St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church (1871), rectory (1876) and convent (1911) are located just west of Central Park. First United Methodist Church is associated with two sets of buildings in the district. Its original church built in 1888 now houses Joy Baptist Church. Their present church building was built in 1923. The present First Christian Church (1958) replaced an earlier church (1903) on the same property. Other denominations are represented by Union Presbyterian Church (1885) and Parsonage (c. 1890), St. Johns Evangelical Church (1864) and Parsonage (1893), and St. Lukes Episcopal Church that was built as Hope Episcopal in 1857.</p><br>
<p>Cattermole Memorial Library is a historic building located in Fort Madison, Iowa, United States. It was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. In 2007 it was included as a contributing property in the Fort Madison Downtown Commercial Historic District.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first library in Fort Madison was a reading room established in the late 1870s by the White Ribbon Society, a local temperance group. It grew to such an extent that by 1884 the City Circulation Library was founded. This collection formed the nucleus of what would become the Cattermole Memorial Library in the next decade. Elizabeth Cattermole funded the construction of the building as a memorial for her husband Henry. He had made his fortune in pork packing and banking. Henry had stipulated in his will that $10,000 be used to build a training school. It was an insufficient amount of money to build the school so the money was set aside. Elizabeth recognized the need for a public library in Fort Madison and contributed $30,000 towards the effort to build a new building. She also contributed $500 towards the purchase of new books. This is the earliest extant example of local philanthropic support in Iowa for the construction of a building dedicated for use as a public library. Elizabeth died before the project was completed.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Architecturally, the building is a combination of the Loire chateau and Richardsonian Romanesque styles. The exterior of the 2½-story structure is composed of brick with terracotta and stone trim. It is capped with a hipped roof. Roof dormers are located on the north and west elevations. The dominant feature of the building is a corner tower with a conical roof. An addition was added to the rear of the building in 1954.</p><br>
