<p>The Wabasha Commercial Historic District is a designation applied to the historic downtown of Wabasha, Minnesota, United States. It comprises 52 contributing properties built from 1856 to 1928. It was listed as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 for having local significance in the theme of commerce. It was nominated for the integrity of its cohesive design and its continuity of use as a commercial district since the mid-19th century.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Wabasha Commercial Historic District is situated on a fluvial terrace parallel to the Mississippi River. Encompassing about 10 acre, it stretches three and a half blocks along Wabasha&#39;s Main Street to the width of one block on either side, with a slight extension to the southwest along Pembroke Avenue. Of the 59 buildings included in the district upon its designation in 1982, all but 15 dated to the latter half of the 19th century. The district primarily comprises commercial buildings, though the western end includes several residential houses.</p><br>
<p>The commercial buildings are largely consistent in design. Nearly all stand two stories tall, with brick walls or façades, and featuring a commercial adaptation of Italianate architecture. Their ornamentation is largely restrained to simple brick cornices, stone window sills and keystones, and a modest variety of window styles.</p><br>
<p>One contributing property, the Hurd House–Anderson Hotel, had been individually listed on the National Register in 1978. Eight buildings were considered non-contributing properties because they were constructed or significantly altered outside the period or style of the rest of the district.</p><br>
<p>The Grant Commercial Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located in Grant, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. The historic district covers the town&#39;s central business district. Grant is a small town located in northeast Montgomery County in the southwest quadrant of the state. It was plated in 1858, and it was known as Milford until the early 20th century even though its post office was Grant. While not on a railroad, the town was still able to maintain a viable commercial district.</p><br>
<p>The district contains a mix of commercial buildings, a fraternal club, a Methodist church, residential and industrial structures. The lone civic building is the non-contributing fire station. There are an unusual number of frame commercial structures, and brick buildings that primarily house automobile-related businesses. Because of this, the district "reflects the growing importance of the automobile as a mode of</p><br>
<p>transportation and its impact on Iowa&#39;s Main Streets." Second Street and U Avenue are the contributing structures in the historic district. The period of significance is from 1871 to 1952, and the buildings are constructed during that time frame. Late 19th and early 20th-century revival styles and the Italianate style are dominant.</p><br>
<p>The William and Amanda J. Ellis Farmstead Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located near Elliott, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015. William and Amanda Jane Ellis owned this farm from 1882 to 1919. During that time the Queen Anne style house with Stick influences and the heavy timber frame barn were built. Both were constructed around 1900. Two garages are the non-contributing buildings.</p><br>
<p>The two-story, frame house is a T-plan structure with five gables. Four of the gables are decorated with knob-like beads and rosettes. The barn is three bays wide with a broken gable type roof with shed-gables. The central section is taller than its flanking sheds. The style was popular from 1900 into the 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The Gooden Grant House is a historic house at Head Harbor in Isle au Haut, Maine. Built in 1911, it is a fine vernacular Queen Anne house, home to one of the islands most colorful characters of the 20th century. Gooden Grant  was one of the islands most successful lobstermen, and the subject of local folkloric oral history. His house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Isle au Haut marks the eastern end of Penobscot Bay on the central coast of Maine. The island is roughly 7 mi long and 3 mi wide, oriented roughly north–south. About half the island is preserved as part of Acadia National Park; the rest of the island is a small rural community now dominated by its summer population, with a small town center on the northwest side. Head Harbor is located at the southeastern corner of the island, opening to the south between Eastern Head and Bungee Head.</p><br>
<p>The house of Gooden Grant stands at the head of Head Harbor, on the east side of the island&#39;s main loop road. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof, clapboard siding, and granite block foundation. An octagonal tower with turreted roof projects at the southwest corner, and a partially-enclosed single-story porch wraps around the west and south sides, supported by turned bracketed posts. A short way southwest of the house stands an outbuilding, which is treated as a barn.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1911 by a local builder named Turner, and was at the time comparable to the finest of the island&#39;s year-round residences. Gooden Grant, for whom it was built, was one of the leading fishermen and lobstermen of the small Head Harbor community. Grant was regarded by his peers as one of the most successful lobstermen of the time, regularly making larger hauls and gaining better prices for his goods than others. As the island became more of a target for tourists in the mid-20th century, Gooden was featured in an iconic postcard as one of its "old salts", surrounded by lobster traps.</p><br>
<p>The Fair Haven Green Historic District encompasses the village green of Fair Haven, Vermont, and the heterogeneous collection of civic, commercial, and residential buildings that line it and adjacent streets. The area was developed mainly following the arrival of the railroad in 1848 and the subsequent expansion of marble and slate quarries in the area. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The town of Fair Haven is located in western Rutland County, Vermont, on the border with New York. Its town center is located on the north side of the Castleton River. The town green is roughly oval in shape, and is a grassy area dotted with shade trees. It is bounded by Main Street and Park Place, and historically significant roadways radiate away to the north, east, and south. The streets flanking the green are lined with a combination of civic, residential, and commercial buildings, most dating to the second half of the 19th century and the early decades of the 20th. A cluster of brick commercial buildings extend along Main Street just south of the green, and are also included in the historic district.</p><br>
<p>The town was chartered in 1779 and settled in 1783 by Matthew Lyon, who established the town&#39;s first mills, and gave the land that now forms the green. The town was rural and generally agrarian in character until 1848, when the Rutland and Whitehall Railroad was built through the town on the south side of the Castleton River. The marble cutting industry was subsequently a major influence in the development of the town, and is partially exemplified by the presence of two marble houses facing the green. Prominent civic buildings facing the green including the neoclassical public library building (1906), the Gothic Methodist church (1877), ornate with slate roof and trim, and the Romanesque Baptist church (1870–73). Many of the residences and commercial buildings are Italianate in style.</p><br>
<p>The Womack House is a historic house at 1867 South Ringo Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, with a low-pitch gable roof, weatherboard siding, and a brick foundation. A cross-gabled porch extends across the front, supported by sloping square columns. The gable ends are supported by knee brackets, and the eaves have exposed rafter ends in the Craftsman style. The house was built in 1922 for Dr. A. A. Womack, a prominent African-American doctor of the period.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>
<p>The William Woodruff House is a historic house at 1017 East 8th Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a -story brick structure, with a gabled roof. A single-story porch extends across the central portion of the front, supported by Doric columns, and there is a large gable dormer projecting from the roof, housing a pair of round-arch windows and a small half-round window in the gable. The core of the house was built in 1853 for William E. Woodruff, publisher of the first newspaper west of the Mississippi River.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Woodruff was an early advocate, newspaper publisher, and politician in Arkansaw Territory and Little Rock. During the height of his career, he moved from his apartment above the newspaper office to a 25 acre urban farmstead of orchards, livestock, and gardens. The home was built of on-site cypress and bricks, likely using slave labor and was overseen by local builder John Robins. Originally facing Ninth Street, the two-and-a-half story home contained ten rooms, with outbuildings for laundry and slave quarters.</p><br>
<p>During the American Civil War, Union troops intercepted a letter in which Woodruff was voicing support for the Confederacy. He was expelled from Little Rock; the Union took over the home, but allowed Woodruff&#39;s wife and daughters to stay for a few months before expelling them as well. It was used as a Union headquarters and military hospital until the end of the war, when the Woodruff family returned.</p><br>
<p>Woodruff passed away in 1885, and it remained in the family until 1891. It later became a boarding house for women, and was later modified into 14 apartment units. A fire in 2005 made the home uninhabitable. It was vacant and subject to vandalism until the Quapaw Quarter Association bought it in 2016.</p><br>
<p>The Worthen Bank Building is a historic commercial building at 401 Main Street in downtown Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a two-story masonry structure with neoclassical and Art Deco lines. It has a steel frame and is faced in limestone. Three bays of three-part windows stand on the second floor, and two flank the center entry. The building was constructed in 1928 for the Worthen Bank, founded in 1877 , and was designed by George R. Mann, a prominent local architect otherwise known for his design of the Arkansas State Capitol. Annexes and a parking garage were added in 1952 and 1962, along with some modernization of the 1928 building.</p><br>
<p>In 1969, the complex was acquired by local ABC television network affiliate KATV (channel 7), which converted it into studios, as Worthern relocated to a new skyscraper nearby; the complex then became the KATV Building, with the monicker applied on the facade of the 1954 annex and other details denoting the buildings new use, including decorative iron grating in the entryway of the 1928 building formed in the stations Circle 7 logo.</p><br>
<p>KATV vacated the Worthen complex in January 2023 for a newer building in the Riverdale section, as it had become too large and outdated for a modern television station and exterior maintenance had been deferred for years, even before the station&#39;s acquisition by Sinclair Broadcasting Group, which saw a modern and streamlined broadcast facility for the station as a priority. The 1928 portion of the building is expected to be restored to its original state, with the newer 1950s addition and attached parking garage to be torn down as part a new technology park development.</p><br>
<p>The original 1928 building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<p>Danish Lutheran Church is located in Alta, Iowa, United States. The first meeting of the Danish Lutheran church society was held on February 22, 1880, with 42 people as charter members.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>The Forest Dale Iron Furnace was a 19th-century iron smelting facility in Brandon, Vermont. Located off Vermont Route 73 east of the village of Forest Dale, it operated between 1810 and 1855, closing due to competition from higher quality and more efficient furnaces. Now reduced to archaeological ruins and the remains of its main furnace stack, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. The site is marked by a historic marker on Vermont 73.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Forest Dale Iron Furnace is located in eastern Brandon, on the north side of Vermont 73 just east of Furnace Road. The site now consists of a generally level area, much of it grassy, with the principal visible portion, the furnace stack, set in the woods just north of the field, accessible via a trail off Furnace Road. The stack is a square stone and brick structure, about 60 ft tall, 32 ft square at the base, tapering as it rises. Three sides have arched openings with stone voussoirs at ground level, about 8 ft wide at the mouth, that taper as the recede into the structure. A central chamber is lined with brick. Other features of the site include a raceway and wheelpit, originally fed by waters from the nearby Neshobe River, and some stone retaining walls. The area is littered with stone, and there are several stone foundations of other structures that once stood on the site.</p><br>
<p>The furnace was established in 1810 by John Smith of Leicester, Vermont, and was in operation, under a variety of names and owners, until 1855. Brown hematite ore from nearby beds was processed with local charcoal to produce iron, which was formed into utilitarian implements such as stoves, agricultural implements, and hardware. The works was not particularly efficient, and its sales were hampered by a poor transportation network. More advanced and better-connected works, particularly in Troy, New York, contributed to its downfall, and the site was abandoned in 1855. It was given to the state in 1974.</p><br>
<p>The Old Allamakee County Courthouse, located on 2nd Street in Lansing, is a short-lived former county courthouse of Allamakee County, Iowa. The courthouse was completed in 1861 amid a fight between Lansing and Waukon over which community deserved to be the county seat. Lansing had lost a vote on the county seat to Waukon in 1859, but they won another vote in 1861 after teaming up with the community of Columbus. Waukon built its own courthouse in the meantime, but it failed to win back the county seat in yet another vote in 1864. The county sheriff, a Waukon resident, attempted to seize the county&#39;s records from the Lansing courthouse in 1866; however, a posse from Lansing stopped him before he could return to Waukon. The Iowa Supreme Court decided the county seat battle in favor of Waukon the following year; it has remained there since.</p><br>
<p>The Lansing courthouse is now one of the only Greek Revival courthouses remaining in Iowa. The building features a recessed portico at the front entrance and curved stairways in its front corners, features not seen in any other Iowa courthouse.</p><br>
<p>The courthouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places of February 24, 1983.</p><br>
<p>Illinois Central Passenger Depot-Storm Lake, also known as the Storm Lake Depot, was an historic building located in Storm Lake, Iowa, United States. The Iowa Falls & Sioux City Railroad, an Illinois Central Railroad  subsidiary, built the first tracks through town in 1870. They also built a two-story frame combination freight and passenger depot the same year. The present depot is a second generation IC structure built of brick. The buildings architectural style is Prairie School with Tudor Revival elements in the dormer and canopy ends. It was designed by IC architect E.E. Bihl, and it is similar to the railroads depots in Flossmoor, Illinois and Fort Dodge, Iowa. The new passenger depot was completed in August, 1915, and the old depot was re-purposed for a dedicated freight depot. It was torn down sometime before 1948. Passenger service remained high during the 1910s and 1920s, with the decline accelerating after World War II, and it ended all together in the late 1960s. While freight trains continue to use the IC&#39;s tracks, the depot has been abandoned. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. The Storm Lake Illinois Central depot was demolished on February 25, 2013.</p><br>
<p>The Harker House is a historic building located in Storm Lake, Iowa, United States. This two-story Second Empire house is attributed to Fort Dodge, Iowa architect James Harker.

<p>The William T. Donnell House is a historic house museum, part of the Maine Maritime Museum on Washington Street in Bath, Maine. It was built in 1868 for one of the city&#39;s leading shipbuilders of the late 19th century, and has remained relatively unaltered since his occupancy. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Donnell House stands on the east side of Washington Street, at roughly the northwestern corner of the campus of the Maine Maritime Museum, the former Percy and Small Shipyard. The house is a -story wood-frame structure, with a hip roof and a combination of clapboard and shiplap siding. The front (street-facing) facade is three bays wide, with a clipped-gable dormer at the center, and a single-story porch extending across the front, supported by square posts set on paneled blocks. Windows are topped by decorative hoods, and the roofline is bracketed and dentillated. The interior is reflective of a late 19th-century remodeling.</p><br>
<p>The house was most likely built in 1868, one year after the property was purchased (without house) by William T. Donnell. Donnell was a shipwright who married Clara Hitchcock, the daughter of Henry Hitchcock, owner of the shipyard located northeast of the house. That shipyard, which Donnell came to own, was one of the most active of Bath&#39;s shipyards in the 1870s and 1880s, producing more than 20 schooners in the years between 1866 and 1901. Donnell also owned and operated some of those ships as a merchant, and served in the state legislature. He sold the land that eventually became the Percy & Small Shipyard, founded in 1896. His house was acquired by the Maine Maritime Museum in 1974, and restored to its late 19th-century appearance. Its interior is viewable with museum admission.</p><br>
<p>The Henry W. Miller House is a historic house located at 11672 West Norris Lane in Galena, Illinois. Henry W. Miller, a flour wholesaler and dealer who played an important role in Galena&#39;s large flour-producing industry, had the house built between 1847 and 1850. The house was built on a plot of land overlooking the plank toll road that connected Galena to Dubuque, Iowa and Mineral Point, Wisconsin; the route, which is now part of USA Route 20, eventually became known for its collection of large, elaborate homes. Miller chose the popular Greek Revival style for his house; its design features sidelights and a transom around the front door, a door surround with pilasters and dentillation, and a symmetrical front with six-over-six windows. Richard Barrett, who owned the house in the 1870s, added its Italianate bay window.</p><br>
<p>The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 13, 2010.</p><br>

<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>During the American Revolution in 1777 British General John Burgoyne came south from Montreal with a large force to attack Fort Ticonderoga and Fort Crown Point on Lake Champlain, and ultimately to meet British forces from New York City and divide the Colonies in half. The British campaign relied upon Native Americans to raid settlers and towns along the lake and inland. After a series of such raids, in which settlers&#39; farms were plundered and burned, and male settlers were taken captive, in early 1780 Fort Vengeance was built to protect the area. Major Ebenezer Allen was placed in command with a garrison of one hundred and fifty men. After Caleb Houghton, aged 30, one of the soldiers comprising the garrison under Major Allen, was found a half-mile from the fort shot, tomahawked and scalped, Major Allen named the new fort "Fort Vengeance." The best known British instigated raid in the fall of 1780 was the Royalton raid, in which the towns of Royalton, Sharon and Tunbridge along the White River in eastern Vermont were burned. The Fort Vengeance archaeological site is located on northern Pittsford, about 0.5 mi south of the town line with Brandon in northern Rutland County. It is marked by a squat marble obelisk adjacent to a roadside pullout on the west side of United States Route 7. The site occupies about 2 acre, most of which is west of the highway, but including a portion of US 7 which is believed to have been built over part of the site.</p><br>
<p>The site includes the archaeological remains of two houses. The older of the two was the farmstead of Caleb Hendee, who moved to the area and built his house here in 1774. At the time of the propertys listing on the National Register, it was the oldest known farmstead site in the state, with no known sites predating 1770 (the states colonial settlement history begins in the 1740s). In 1780 Hendee&#39;s farmstead became the site of Fort Vengeance, a palisaded fortification whose construction was ordered by the independent government of the Vermont Republic as part of its northern line of defense. The fort included a barracks, powder magazine, and other features, and was in use until 1782. It was one of three forts ordered by the state, all in the Pittsford-Brandon area, and is the only one whose location is both known and amenable to archaeological investigation. It is suspected that a portion of the modern road prism of US 7 encroaches on the site; construction of the road necessitated movement of the marker some 25 ft west of its original placement.</p><br>
<p>Caleb Hendee&#39;s house was probably abandoned in the mid-19th century by his son Samuel, who built a Greek Revival farmhouse further south, and probably tore down the remains of the old house and fort. In 1858, Samuel sold most of the property to a future in-law, Chester Thomas. Thomas built the house that made the second homesite in 1860; this building was demolished about 1900.</p><br>

<p>Yellow Smoke Park Bridge is located on the eastern edge of Denison, Iowa, United States. Steel was in short supply during World War II as a part of the war effort. Many bridges built across the state were built in this era with timber, especially small-scale bridges. Heavy flooding washed out 27 bridges and culverts in Crawford County in May 1945. The county board of supervisors used emergency funds to build new bridges. They bought several steel superstructures from the Des Moines Steel Company to replace the washed-out spans. The bowstring arch-truss structures appear to have been designed by H. Gene McKeown, a civil engineer from Council Bluffs. This bridge is one several similar structures built in the county, and one of five that still remain. It was moved to serve a pedestrian path in a county park around 1986.

<p>The Gushee Family House is a historic house at 2868 Sennebec Road in Appleton, Maine. Built about 1833 and remodeled in 1891, it is a well-preserved early rural Maine farmstead, with a well-preserved main entry surround that is unusually elaborate for the house&#39;s scale, but is also common to other period houses in the region. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Gushee House stands on the southwest side of Sennebec Road in the village of Appleton, just south of the local public library. It is a -story Cape style wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. It is connected via a series of single-story ells to a 19th-century barn, which has been set on a concrete foundation. The main block of the house is five bays wide, with two sash windows set on either side of an unusually elaborate main entrance. The entry consists of a six-panel door, flanked by half-length sidelight windows and topped by a half-oval fanlight louver. This assembly is framed by pilasters set on plinths, rising to support a broad entablature and cornice. The interior of the house has a typical center-chimney plan, with well-preserved Federal and Greek Revival styling.</p><br>
<p>The house is generally believed to have been built in 1833, the year in which Almond Gushee, Jr., part owner of a local mill, married Elvira Drake. The house remained in the Gushee family into the 1960s, and was enlarged and updated in the 1890s by Francis Gushee. The front entry, which bears some resemblance to Plate 27 in Asher Benjamin&#39;s 1848 The Rudiments of Architecture, is one of several nearly identical entries found in other period houses in Appleton and some neighboring communities. The designer/builder is not known.</p><br>
