<p>The South Londonderry Village Historic District encompasses a significant portion of the historic developed area of the village of South Londonderry, Vermont. The village has a well-preserved mid-19th century core, with most of its major development history taking place between about 1806 and 1860. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>South Londonderry Village is located in south-central Londonderry, and is built along both sides of the West River, which flows roughly southeast toward the Connecticut River. Vermont Route 100 runs through the village, paralleling the river to the north and running more directly south on the south side of the river. Main Street flanks the river on it northern bank, while Winhall Hollow Road and West River Road flank it on the south side. Running perpendicular to the single bridge spanning the river in the village center are Melendy Hill Road to the south and Middletown Road to the north.</p><br>
<p>The village grew in the early 19th century around this area because the drop in elevation of the river provided water power for early industrial works. Most of these industrial sites are now little more than foundations, including ones from early in the 20th century. Three dams were built across the river at various points, the largest directly upstream of the bridge. Residential construction was hemmed in by the steep hillsides, resulting in a generally linear pattern of development on either side of the river. Most of the houses are wood frame structures 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 stories in height, and most have modest decorative styling from popular 19th-century architectural styles. There are two 19th-century church buildings, two former school buildings, and the 1860 Londonderry Town House, which houses municipal offices and auditorium and meeting spaces.</p><br>

<p>The Danish West India and Guinea Company Warehouse is a historic building located at Church and Company Streets in Christiansted, USA Virgin Islands. Built in 1749 for the Danish West India and Guinea Company, the building served as the center of Danish commerce on Saint Croix during the 18th and early 19th centuries. At the time, the USA Virgin Islands were known as the Danish West Indies, and Saint Croix had the most successful economy of the three islands. The building is representative of Danish colonial architecture and features stucco walls made of yellow brick imported from Denmark, an inner courtyard, and several cisterns. After its use as a warehouse ended in the 19th century, the building served as a telegraph office; it became a post office and customs house after the United States purchased the islands in 1917.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 9, 1974. It is part of the Christiansted National Historic Site.</p><br>
<p>The Louis I. Bussey School is a historic school building on United States Route 202 in Dixmont, Maine. Built about 1808, it is the only surviving schoolhouse from the period of the town&#39;s early settlement. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Bussey School is located in the rural village center of Dixmont, on the south side of US 202/Maine State Route 9, east of its junction with Maine State Route 7. It stands just west of the Dixmont Corner Church. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a gable roof and clapboard siding. The front-facing gable extends over a porch supported by chamfered square posts, with pilasters at the building corners. There are two identical entrances, each framed by sidelight windows and a simple architrave.</p><br>
<p>The township that became Dixmont was granted in 1794 to Bowdoin College, which sold it in 1801 to Dr. Elijah Dix. In 1808 Dix gave the budding town funds for the construction of five district schools, of which this is the only one to survive. It was probably built with only modest vernacular styling of that period, its Greek Revival exterior probably the result of 1836 alterations. The school is named in honor of another community supporter. When it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, it was owned by the Dixmont Ladies Club, and was used as a community meeting place.</p><br>
<p>The Manor House is a historic house on United States Route 302 in Naples, Maine. Built in 1796 by one of the area&#39;s first settlers, it is a rare high-quality example of Federal period architecture in the rural interior of the state. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Manor House is located on the south side of United States Route 302, several miles north of the town center of Naples, at a location that would have historically had a view of Long Lake to the north. The house is a -story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a low-pitch hip roof, brick side walls, clapboarded front and back walls, and a stone foundation. The main entrance is centrally located, with flanking pilasters and sidelight windows, and a semi-oval transom window above. A Palladian window with a half-round central window and narrow side windows is set on the second floor above the entrance, also articulated by pilasters. A single-story wood-frame ell extends to the rear.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1796 by George Peirce, one of Naples first settlers. Peirce arrived in the area (then part of Otisfield) in 1775 as the land agent for an absentee proprietor, and established the areas first gristmill and sawmill. He was Naples&#39; first town clerk, and served as its constable in 1798. The house he built is of unusually high quality for the period in interior Maine (29 mi from the coast).</p><br>
<p>The South Windham Village Historic District encompasses a small rural village in southern Windham, Vermont. Located at the junction of Windham Hill and Chase Roads, it has been little altered since the late 19th century. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>South Windham is a rural hill village, nestled in a now-forested valley in southernmost Windham, just across the town line with Jamaica on Windham Hill Road. The settlement consists of eleven main structures, the most notable of which is the Valley Bible Church, built in 1825 and distinguished by its brick sides and rear wall as well as its Federal architecture. Most of the buildings in the village are houses, wood frame structures 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 stories in height, with vernacular Greek Revival features. The other notable exception is the c. 1887 district schoolhouse, now a private residence. The village once had a store, built c. 1855; it was demolished in 1987.</p><br>
<p>The villages economic history is typical of similar villages in Vermonts hill towns, rising in the early 19th century on an agricultural base, but later declining due to the difficulty of working the land. Consequences of this decline, and a lack of later development, include the relatively large number of surviving agricultural buildings in the center, including several mid-19th century barns, and a number of chicken coops. The most stylish of the houses is the Harrington-Brown House, built c. 1860 at the southern end of the village; it has pedimented windows on the first floor and an entablature on the main facade below the roof.</p><br>
<p>The former Castleberry Hotel is a historic commercial building at 61 Main Street  in De Valls Bluff, Arkansas. It is a two-story masonry structure, built out of brick and capped by a hip roof whose eaves have exposed rafter tails. A porch extends across the sidewalk in front of the building, supported by brick piers. Built in 1925, it is a good local example of Craftsman architecture. It was the town&#39;s principal hotel, serving through travelers until the 1960s, when the town was bypassed by interstate highways.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The Frith-Plunkett House is a historic house at 8th and Main Streets in Des Arc, Arkansas. It is a well-proportioned two story wood-frame structure, with a gable roof, weatherboard siding, and a foundation of brick piers. A Neoclassical two-story porch projects from the center of what is otherwise a typical I-house, giving it a distinctive Greek Revival character. Built in 1858, it is the oldest standing residence in the city.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Lakewood Park is a private park located at the northern end of Lake Number Three in North Little Rock, Arkansas. It is roughly bounded on the east by Edgemere Drive, the south by the lake, and the west by Lakeshore Drive, although a portion of the park lies west of Lakeshore Drive. Use of most of the park&#39;s athletic and recreational facilities are limited to members of the Lakewood Property Owners Association, which owns and manages the park. The park includes seven artworks by the Mexican artist Dionicio Rodriguez, which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Hopewell School, also known as the Hopewell Rosenwald School, is a former African American school in Bastrop County, Texas, United States. that was built in 1921–1922, a time of racial segregation in the United States. The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 15, 2015 and designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 2022.</p><br>
<p>The school was initially funded by a land grant of 1.5 acres and a monetary grant from Martin and Sophia MacDonald of Bastrop County, who were enslaved as children. The school was also paid for through public funds, money raised from the African American community, and a monetary grant from the Rosenwald Fund. The school opened in 1922 and closed in the late 1950s, when the United States Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education found that state laws establishing racial segregation in public schools were unconstitutional, rendering the school obsolete.</p><br>
<h2>Restoration</h2><br>
<p>After the school closed, the building fell into disrepair. In 2015, Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative awarded a $50,000 capital grant to the Hopewell Rosenwald School Project to help convert the building into a community center. The project to restore the school was under the fiscal umbrella of American YouthWorks</p><br>
<p>The Lord Stirling Manor Site is a historic site located at 96 Lord Stirling Road in the Basking Ridge section of Bernards Township in Somerset County, New Jersey. It was the property of the American General William Alexander, Lord Stirling. It is now part of Lord Stirling Park. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 22, 1978, for its significance in military and social history.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Lord Stirling acquired the land from his father in 1761 and constructed the manor complex in 1763. It was one of the finest homes in the region, and local residents referred to his estate as "The Buildings." After his death in 1783, the property was sold, and the structures fell into disrepair. The house was rebuilt in 1825, though not according to the original design, and destroyed by fire in 1919. At the time of its nomination to the National Register, the only structures remaining from the original 1763 construction were the cisterns, slave quarters, various outbuildings, and the foundation of the mansion. The slave quarters were the only known surviving slave quarters in New Jersey and thus constitute a significant record of the History of slavery in New Jersey.</p><br>
<p>The manor site is currently occupied by a 1920s Montgomery Ward mail order house that was situated on the foundation of the original structure.</p><br>
<p>An archaeological excavation sponsored by Somerset County Parks unearthed thousands artifacts dating from Lord Stirling&#39;s occupation through the 20th century.</p><br>

Built in 1938, it is the only known structure with this type of construction in White County.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It is probable this building has either been moved or demolished; satellite views indicate a church now stands where the farm was located.</p><br>
<p>The George S. Tiffany Cottage is a historic summer house on Aldrich Road in Islesboro, Maine. Built 1911-12 for a businessman from St. Louis, Missouri, it is a rare example in the state of the Prairie School of architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</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. A peninsula extends south from the southern lobe, ending at Pendleton Point, the southernmost tip of the island. Roughly midway on this peninsula, a smaller one named Shattuck Point juts west. The Tiffany Cottage is set on a waterfront lot on the southwest side of the Shattuck Point peninsula, accessed via Aldrich Road. It is a large two story V-shaped structure, with a hip roof and shingled exterior. At the point of the V, a bracketed gabled section projects toward the water, flanked by single-story entry porches. Windows are arrayed somewhat irregularly, with an emphasis on horizontal lines. One end of the building has a two-level porch under the roof, supported by Colonial Revival groups of posts. The interior of the house is predominantly Colonial Revival, with paneled wainscoting and a pilastered central hall.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1911-12 for George S. Tiffany, a businessman in the cotton industry from St. Louis, Missouri. Tiffanys father had been an early purchaser (1891) of land developed in the area by the Islesboro Land and Improvement Company, which promoted the community as a summer resort area. His fathers house burned in 1910. This house was designed by the St. Louis firm of Mauran, Russell & Crowell, and represents a melding of the distinctive styles of the Colonial Revival as well as the Prairie School.</p><br>
<p>The Tontine Building is a historic mixed-use commercial and residential building at 500 Coolidge Highway  in Guilford, Vermont. Built in 1819, it is a rare example of a Federal period commercial building in southeastern Vermont, and is one of only three buildings in the state known to have been financed by a tontine, a subscription-based investment model. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008. It has been rehabilitated and converted entirely into housing units.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Tontine Building occupies a prominent location in the village center of Guilford, at the southwestern corner of Guilford Center Road and US 5, the latter a major regional north-south artery. The building sits on a roughly triangular lot, resulting in a somewhat unusual building configuration, with a typical Federal period main block facing US 5, and a long ell extending at an angle along Guilford Center Road, with a "flatiron" angled corner section. The building is two stories in height, with a gabled roof, clapboard siding, and foundation of mixed materials, including dry-laid rubblestone, brick, and concrete. The main facade has a typical 5-bay Federal appearance, with a center entrance framed by pilasters and topped by an entablature with projecting cornice. The angled corner section is two bays wide, continuing the sash windows found on the main facade. The ell is ten bays long, of which six are original to the building, and four represent a mid 19th-century conversion of what had been an attached barn. The interior of the building has some original features, including its original front staircase, but has otherwise been converted into seven modern residential units.</p><br>
<p>The building was constructed in 1819, by a group of local investors organized into a tontine. This form of subscription-based investment was popular in the 18th century, with investment payouts distributed to the surviving investors. This building was owned by its tontine group until 1869, and was operated primarily with a drugstore in the commercial space, with tenement units behind. The investment group that owned the building was responsible for significant development of the village of East Guilford in the mid 19th century. This building saw a variety of commercial and residential uses prior to its conversion in 2008-10 to an exclusive residential use.</p><br>

<p>The Beaver Dam Plantation, also known as the William Cannon Houston House, is a historic mansion on a Southern plantation in Woodbury, Tennessee, United States.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>A log building was first built c. 1810. The plantation was acquired and expanded by politician William C. Houston in 1873. His son, Frank K. Houston, later Chairman of Chemical Bank (now known as CITIBANK), was born on the plantation. A formal dining-room was added circa 1880, and a rear porch circa 1930. The home is well known in rock hunting circles for its spectacular geode pillars. They were constructed with the help of farmhands, by the six brothers of the family. They were built as an anniversary present for Judge Houston and his wife Lizzie Minor McLemore Houston.</p><br>
<p>Beaver Dam began as a trading post. The name is born of the frustration of a fur trader named McFerrin, who disputed the claims of an unknown trapper, that one of his pelts was indeed, that of a beaver. Beaver Dam was also a stopping point along the infamous "Trail of Tears" along which the Cherokee Nation was forced to move to Oklahoma by then-President Andrew Jackson.</p><br>
<p>Beaver Dam was the Civil War encampment site of General Nathan Bedford Forrest&#39;s 4th Tennessee Cavalry, before its raid on Murfreesboro. Family lore speculates that Judge W.C. Houston met his future father-in-law, Col. William S. McLemore of the Starnes-McLemore Unit (TN 4th Cavalry). However, in keeping with other family lore, it is more probable that young Houston, then ten or eleven years old, was kept hidden in the caves of Doolittle, the home of his mother Elizabeth Morgan Houston Fugitt, in order to avoid conscription into the Confederate Army.</p><br>
<p>Beaver Dam was always a center of life in Cannon County, this included serving as the site where prospective soldiers signed their enlistment papers to join the USA and Confederate Armies. It served in this capacity from the War of 1812 until World War I.</p><br>
<p>Beaver Dam sits along the route of the first state highway in Tennessee, known as "State Route One", "The Memphis to Bristol Highway." The historic home has played host to many politicians, including Sam Rayburn, Jimmy Byrnes, John Nance Garner and Cordell Hull. Houston served in the USA House of Representatives as Chairman of the House Committees and Chairman of the House Committee on the Census. Judge Houston, as he was commonly known, was also a Presidential Elector.</p><br>
<p>Houston was also an agricultural innovator and among other achievements, he built the first grain silo in the County. The Plantations crops included tobacco and wheat. Tennessee Walking Horses and cattle made up the rest of the plantations farming activities. Until 1973, the Plantation comprised 800 acres.</p><br>
<h2>Architectural significance</h2><br>
<p>The mansion was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since June 16, 1989.</p><br>
<p>The Congregational Church in Exeter is a parish of the United Church of Christ located on Front Street in Exeter, New Hampshire.</p><br>
<p>The congregation was first gathered in 1638 by the Rev. John Wheelwright following his expulsion from the Massachusetts Bay Colony.</p><br>
<p>The current congregation is a merger of the former First Parish and Second Parish of Exeter. Second Parish split from First Parish in the 1700s during the Great Awakening over theological differences. The two congregations then reunited in 1920.</p><br>
<p>Nicholas Gilman, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, was a member of the church. During the schism of the two congregations, Phillips Exeter Academy was founded by John Phillips and other members of the Second Parish. The current Phillips Exeter Academy chapel now occupies the building of the former Second Parish. Church member Amos Tuck was keenly involved in early efforts to address the abolition of slavery, and held meetings on the subject at the church.</p><br>
<p>Today, the church has an active membership, a Sunday School, and various mission and outreach programs. The current Senior Pastor is author and minister the Rev. Dr. E. Carrington Heath. The congregation is a member of the United Church of Christ. It has been an Open and Affirming (actively welcoming LGBTQ people) congregation since 1996. They are also partnered with a church in Pfizda, Zimbabwe, and work to help prepare housing for refugees settling in New Hampshire, and give to a number of local non-profits.</p><br>
<p>The current building, located at 21 Front Street in Exeter, New Hampshire, was built in 1798 and can seat 400 people. It is the fifth meeting house built by the congregation, and was designed by Ebenezer Clifford, a local builder. The building has a number of distinctive features. Its hip roof is believed to be the earliest such roof built on a church in the state, and its only entrances were through the projecting entrance bay (unlike earlier traditional meeting houses, which had entrances on three sides). In 1838 the interior of the building was remodeled, removing box pews, and converting the gallery to a full second floor. The sanctuary is now located on the upper level, with meeting rooms and other facilities below. An addition was made to the rear of the church in 1930, giving it a more square footprint.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971 as The Congregational Church (United Church of Christ) and alternately The First Church. There is a small, working memorial garden at the side of the church, in which are also buried town fathers Folsom and Gilman.</p><br>
<p>In literature, the church building figures in John Irving&#39;s 1989 novel A Prayer for Owen Meany. Irving grew up in the congregation.</p><br>
<p>The Building at 84–96 Hammond Street in Bangor, Maine, is a historically significant commercial and residential structure. Actually an amalgamation of three buildings constructed between 1834 and c. 1875, it is a rare surviving element of Bangor&#39;s once-significant furniture manufacturing industry, having seen use in that endeavor from the 1830s until the 1980s. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Hammond Street, designated United States Route 2 and Maine State Route 100, is a major roadway leading west from downtown Bangor. The rambling structure at 84–96 Hammond is located two blocks west of West Market Square, on the south side of the street between Columbia and North High Streets. As viewed facing south from the street, the building has two sections, each five stories in height, a courtyard area now enclosed by a single-story structure with a recessed doorway, and a -story mansard-roofed clapboarded section.</p><br>

<p>The Vernon District Schoolhouse No. 4 is a historic school building at 4201 Fort Bridgman Road  in Vernon, Vermont. Built 1848, it is a well-preserved mid-19th century brick district school, which now serves as a local historical museum. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Vernon District Schoolhouse No. 4 is located in rural southern Vernon, on the east side of Fort Bridgman Road, just south of its junction with Pond Road. It is set on a lot overlooking the Connecticut River, which flows just to the east. It is a single-story brick structure, with a gabled roof and brick foundation. The street-facing facade is three bays wide, each occupied by a sash window. The south facade has a bank of six sash windows, while the north side has none. A wood-frame addition extends to the rear, with the main entrance in its southern facade, sheltered by a shed-roofed hood. Decorative detailing includes a band of corbeled brickwork in the cornices.</p><br>
<p>The main brick block of the school was built in 1848. One portion of the wood-frame addition was added in 1924, at which time the school&#39;s interior was probably also remodeled, to bring the building in line with new state standards. The addition was enlarged in 1941, adding inside chemical toilets to the building, again in response to new state requirements for indoor bathroom facilities. The school remained in use until 1954, when the town consolidated its districts into a single elementary school. The school sat vacant until 1972, when it was adapted for use as a local history museum by Vernon Historians, the local historical society. It is one of three surviving district school buildings in the town.</p><br>

<p>Merriconegan Farm, or Merrucoonegan Farm, is a historic farm property on Maine State Route 123 in North Harpswell, Maine. The farmstead, most of which dates to the 1830s, is a remarkably well preserved and extensive example of a connected farm complex. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Merriconegan Farm is located on the northern portion of the Harpswell Neck, a long and narrow peninsula extending southward from Brunswick, Maine. It is set on the west side of the peninsula&#39;s main road, Harpswell Neck Road, also designated Maine State Route 123. The farmstead is set between fields and the wooded areas of the Skolfield Shores Preserve, which is privately held conservation land open to the public. The farmstead is a long series of connected wood-frame structures, most stories in height. As viewed from the south (the main approach) it consists of a barn, an ell, a house, an ell, another house, two ells, and a second barn. Most of these structures date to the 1830s; the ell and barn at the right end date to 1885 and 1897, respectively.</p><br>
<p>The land that became Merriconegan Farm was acquired in the late 18th century by Thomas Skolfield, an Irish immigrant from a wealthy landed family. His son and grandson, Clement and George Roger Skolfield, built the oldest portion of the complex (the right house and ell immediately to its right) sometime before 1834. The remaining elements (except the rightmost sections) were built about 1834 by George Roger&#39;s son and grandson. The assemblage is one of the most impressive and well-preserved examples of the connected 19th-century farmstead to be found anywhere in New England.</p><br>
<p>The West Brattleboro Green Historic Districts encompasses the historic core of the village of West Brattleboro, Vermont. Centered in the triangular green at South Street and Western Avenue, it includes a modest collection of buildings constructed between about 1800 and 1910. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The village of West Brattleboro is located about 2 mi west of downtown Brattleboro, roughly centered on the junction of Western Avenue (Vermont Route 9), Bonnyvale Road, and South Street. Western Avenue is the major east-west route across southern Vermont, while Bonnyvale Road and South Street provide through access to the rural southern and western parts of the town. Western Avenue runs roughly parallel and south of Whetstone Brook, and is the road along which most of the village is located. The junction with South Street creates a triangular island, which is where the village common is located. The historic district consists of the buildings that face the common, from Bonnyvale Road south on Western Avenue to George F. Miller Drive, and to a point just south of the common on South Street.</p><br>
<p>West Brattleboro was the site of the town&#39;s second church (built in 1785), and the area soon grew to become a wayside stop for travelers heading east or west. In 1818 the roads were realigned, creating the triangular common, and the church was moved to the site of the present First Congregational Church. That church built in 1845, with Italianate styling added in the 1880s, is the most substantial and prominent building in the village. Although there are a few older buildings, most of them date to the time period 1840–1910, and are wood frame buildings that have architectural styling popular in the mid-to-late 19th century. The other most prominent buildings are a -story former hotel, and a two-story commercial block, both on the north side of Western Avenue.</p><br>
<p>The Emmett McDonald House is a historic house in rural White County, Arkansas. It is located southeast of McRae, east of the junction of South Grand Avenue and Gammill Road. It is a -story vernacular wood-frame structure, with a tall gabled roof and novelty siding. A gabled porch extends across the front, supported by box columns on brick piers. It was built about 1935, and is one of the few surviving houses from that time period in the county.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>
<p>The McRae Jail is a former local jail on East First Street in McRae, Arkansas. It is a small single-story masonry structure, built out of cast concrete. It has a single door with a barred opening, and small openings on the sides, also barred. Built about 1934 with funding from the Works Progress Administration , it is one of three jails built in White County by the WPA, and is of those three the best preserved.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>
<p>The Hormel Historic Home, also known the Cook-Hormel House or simply The Hormel Home, is a historic Italianate style home with Classical Revival facade located in Austin, Minnesota. The home was built in 1871 and was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Completed in 1871 by local businessman and politician John Cook, the red brick house was originally built in Italianate style. The home was purchased by George A. Hormel in 1901 and an extensive remodeling project began in 1902. As part of the renovation, the brick was covered with stucco and Classical Revival details were added to the homes interior and exterior. Many of the homes interior furnishings were imported from Europe and Quezal and Tiffany art glass are used on fixtures throughout the home.</p><br>
<p>Following his retirement in 1927, Hormel and his wife Lillian moved to California, donating the home to the local YWCA chapter.</p><br>
<h2>Current use</h2><br>
<p>In the early 1990s the home was made into a museum dedicated to the history and preservation of the Hormel family. The home is open to the public for tours. The HHH also offers a variety of educational and arts-related programming including the History Happy Hour, Hearth & Home series, the Harris Piano Contest, and the Peace Garden concerts.</p><br>
<p>Carriage House Event Center</p><br>
<p>In 2009, the Carriage House Event Center was added onto the original mansion. This addition is connected to the HHH and includes a large lobby, 200-seat banquet room, and kitchen. The facility is also available for group rentals, and a popular venue for weddings and receptions.</p><br>
<p>The Emmett Miller House was a historic house in rural White County, Arkansas. It was located on the west side of Arkansas Highway 13, north of Judsonia and east of Plainview. It was a single-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof that had exposed rafters and Craftsman brackets in the end gables. Its front porch, also gabled, had similar features. It was built in 1938, and was the best example of Craftsman architecture in the Plainview area.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It has been listed as demolished in the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program database.</p><br>
<p>The D.V. Adams Co.-Bussell and Weston Building is a historic commercial building at 190 Water Street in downtown Augusta, Maine. Built in 1909, it is one of the state&#39;s best early examples of a department store building. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The D.V.Adams Co.-Bussell and Weston Building is located on the west side of Water Street, Augusta&#39;s principal business thoroughfare, on the block south of Bridge Street. It is a three-story brick structure, with a flat roof adorned by an ornate projecting cornice. It is five bays wide, with the bays articulated by pilasters, and the first-floor display windows separated from the upper floors by a stylized entablature. The central bay is wider than the others, housing the recessed building entrance on the ground floor, and three-part windows on the upper floors with slender pilasters dividing the sections. The interior retains original decorative features, including iron columns, a wooden staircase, and pressed metal ceilings.</p><br>
<p>The building was designed by the Boston, Massachusetts firm of Freeman, Funk and Wilcox, and was built in 1909 for Bussell & Weston, a dry goods retailer. The building is a notable departure from the commercial Italianate architecture that predominates on Water Street. It originally had a stepped parapet, which was replaced c. 1919-1926 with the present Italianate cornice, bringing it more in sympathy with its neighbors. The building housed a department store until 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Larwood Bridge is a covered bridge near Lacomb in Linn County in the USA state of Oregon. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The bridge crosses Crabtree Creek at Larwood Wayside Park, where the Roaring River empties into the creek, about 3 mi north of Lacomb. The 105 ft bridge carries Fish Hatchery Road over the creek.</p><br>
<p>Built in 1939, the bridge was repaired in 2002. It was named after William Larwood, who settled here in 1888, built a store and blacksmith shop, and operated a post office. The bridge had two predecessors, one over the creek and another over the river, adjacent to one another. Both no longer exist.</p><br>
<p>The Charles G. Bryant Double House is a historic residential duplex at 16-18 Division Street in Bangor, Maine. Built in 1836 as a speculative venture by architect Charles G. Bryant, it has, unlike many similar local buildings of the period, retained most of its original Greek Revival styling. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Bryant Double House is located in a densely built residential area north of downtown Bangor, standing on the north side of Division Street midway between Kenduskeag Avenue and Prentiss Street. It is a -story wood-frame structure, with a front-facing gabled roof and clapboard siding. The building corners have fluted pilasters, with entablatures running down the sides. A single-story hip-roof porch-and-vestibule section projects from the front, with an open porch area at the center, with side-facing entrances to vestibules whose fronts are defined by fluted pilasters topped by an entablature with garlands.</p><br>
<p>This house was built in 1836 to a design by Bangor architect Charles G. Bryant. It was built by Bryant as a speculative venture at a time when the city was experiencing significant growth, and a housing boom was taking place. He is known to have built a number of them, of which this is the only one to retain most of it original styling. The amount of Greek Revival detail is unusual for such a modest residence, and was only normally found on the city&#39;s larger-scale houses.</p><br>
<p>The Pleasant Grove School is a historic school building located in Logan Township, Peoria County, Illinois, near the community of Eden. The one-room schoolhouse was built in 1856 to educate the children of Pleasant Grove, the name for the surrounding community at the time. The school was built on the same property as the communitys church, which has since been demolished, and its cemetery. Local stonemason Joel Lobaugh built the school from locally quarried, rough coursed limestone; his design was utilitarian, with limestone window sills and lintels being the only decorative elements. The school served students until 1945, when all of Logan Townships schools consolidated into a single school in Eden.</p><br>
<p>The school was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 19, 1994.</p><br>
<p>The Missouri Pacific Depot is a historic railroad station at Market and Ramey Streets in Bald Knob, Arkansas.

<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>
<p>The Missouri Pacific Railway Caboose No. 928 is a historic caboose, located near Market and Vine Streets in Bald Knob, Arkansas, near the former Missouri Pacific Depot. It is a cupola caboose, measuring 34 ft in length and 10 ft in width, with a height of 14 ft. It was built in 1937 by the Magor Car Corporation, and was used by the Missouri Pacific Railroad until it was retired in 1986. It was one of the first generation of steel-framed cupola cabooses built, a form that later became commonplace. It was then given to the city of Searcy, where it was displayed until 2009. It was transferred to the White County Historical Society, and was then moved to Bald Knob.</p><br>
<p>The caboose was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<p>The Illinois Waterway Project Office is a maintenance shop and project office for the Illinois Waterway, the system of rivers and canals through Illinois which connect the Mississippi River to Lake Michigan. The complex, which is also a national historic district, is located at 257 Grant Street in Peoria, Illinois, on the west bank of the Illinois River. The USA Army Corps of Engineers established the office in 1913 to house and maintain its boats; it developed into its current role in the 1920s and 1930s. The maintenance buildings at the complex were mainly built during this later period of development; five of these buildings are considered contributing buildings to the historic district. The 1913 harbor and marine ways are also part of the historic district, as are three of the boats stationed in the harbor.</p><br>
<p>The office was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 10, 2004.</p><br>
<p>White Hall is a historic mansion in Spring Hill, Tennessee, USA.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The two-story mansion was completed in 1844. It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style. It was built for Dr. Aaron C. White, a physician and planter, by his brother Henry White. Dr. White&#39;s father was General William C. White who was once in a duel with Sam Houston.</p><br>
<p>During the American Civil War, the mansion was used as military headquarters for General Earl Van Dorn of the Confederate States Army. By 1863, General Van Dorn moved to the Martin Cheairs House, where he was murdered by the jealous Dr. James Bodie Peters a week later for an alleged affair with Dr. Peters wife. Some historians speculate that Earls murder by Peters was a ruse in order to gain favor of the North which occupied Peters family land in Arkansas. Supporting arguments include the fact that Peters was able to flee unimpeded and gates through fields were left open beforehand. Meanwhile, in the aftermath of the Battle of Franklin in 1864, soldiers serving under Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest were treated by Dr. White at White Hall.</p><br>
<h2>Architectural significance</h2><br>
<p>It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 5, 1984.</p><br>
