The house features a cylindrical tower topped by a conical roof, a one-story entrance portico with Ionic order columns, and a porte cochere. The building housed school administration offices after 1928.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.</p><br>
<p>Also known as the Limestone Castle, the limestone came from Mr. Norton&#39;s quarry. He enjoyed a large amount of success due to the limestone in his quarry having a light blue hue to it. The school district used the home for offices and storage for many years until a private owner purchased it in the 1970s. The last known family to live in the house was the Groff family from 1982 to 1984. They were Tom and Barbara with their three sons Daniel, James and Timothy who were in grade school at the time. Tom built the surrounding wood fence in the backyard where there was none. It still stands today. The red building at the rear of the property was living quarters for the builders. It has a wood-burning stove inside and is a two-story building with stairs.</p><br>
<p>Over the last 40+ years, not much has changed about the property. One large evergreen tree located at the beginning of the driveway was taken down. The only visible improvements or updating that has been done in that time is the carpet (unknown date) and the tar shingle roof in 1983. The front limestone facade at the sidewalk has been repaired to keep it from toppling over.</p><br>
<p>The house has a full-size attic with interior stairs for access. The basement covers about 3/4 of the house. The home is heated by a boiler in the basement that circulates the hot water through radiators throughout the home. Interior ceilings are approximately twelve to fourteen feet high. Four of the five bedrooms upstairs each have a fireplace. The master bedroom enjoys the quaint area of the tower. The bedroom over the side entrance affords views all the way to main highway. The house has two side-by-side full bathrooms upstairs off the hallway, a full bathroom in the master and a half bath placed in an odd position between the room at the side entrance and the rear staircase. There is still an intercom system to all of the upstairs bedroom from the kitchen. A convenient laundry chute from the second story to the laundry/pantry room was a modern touch at the time. This room is behind the kitchen and accessible to the dining room. Beautiful stained glass windows let in the western light to the main staircase. Three other staircases allow access from the basement to the attic. A wood-burning fireplace warms the rear room. The property is located across the street from Bedford Junior High School.</p><br>

<p>The Lamb Block is a historic commercial building at 10 Depot Street in Livermore Falls, Maine. Built in 1895 to a design by George M. Coombs, it was the town&#39;s first masonry commercial block, and acted as a prototype for later commercial buildings in the town center. The block was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>

It was the first substantial brick building to be built Livermore Falls&#39; downtown area, and notably survived an 1898 fire that destroyed much of its downtown. Some of the buildings put up after the fire are similar to this one in style.</p><br>

Porter Company of Ottawa, Illinois, which manufactured the playground equipment and held those rights. The playground apparatus exemplifies the company&#39;s growth in the 1920s. Most of the schools in Fairfield had playground equipment manufactured by Louden. The object was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>

Most of the complex was built in 1904 north of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad tracks. The company produced malleable iron castings for agricultural implement manufacturers, including Fairfield&#39;s Louden Machinery Company. For the most part it was established by the officers of the Louden Company, and it is thought to be the first foundry of its kind between the Mississippi River and Pueblo, Colorado. The two companies maintained a close association throughout their histories. The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>

<p>The town of Argos lies in Walnut Township, Marshall County, Indiana, along the Michigan Road where it intersects with State Road 10, formerly known as the Wabash Road and now known within the town limits as Walnut Street. The district comprises three blocks lining Michigan Street. Historically, these blocks were primarily commercial in nature with development radiating from the intersection of Michigan and Walnut Streets (primarily eastward on Walnut to the railroad and the plat of Fremont). The Michigan Road was main road between Indianapolis and Lake Michigan. The district&#39;s remains the commercial center of the surrounding community. Examples of 19th and early 20th century architecture characterize district. The district is an example the small midwestern downtowns from 1867 through 1942.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The architecture of the district is varied in styles, with a near full range of those styles typical to Midwestern towns during the period of significance from 1867 to 1942. This concentration of structures in a commercial section of a town plat reflects the character of typical Michigan Road towns.</p><br>
<p>There are four notable buildings of different styles that best exemplify the range of architecture during the period of significance. The earliest is the Schoonover Building, a 19th-century building. It is a rare example of early frame ‘commercial’ building. These usually are replaced during the business’ life with a brick buildings.</p><br>
<p>A second example is the old Argos Opera House-Huff Building which is ‘railroad town’ Italianate architecture of the late 1800s. The Masonic Lodge-Grossman Building is Romanesque Revival style. The Farmers State Bank is in the Neo-Classical style.</p><br>
<h2>Significant structures</h2><br>
<p>117-119 North Michigan Street 1901IOOF” and "263", the lodge number, in raised lettering in the center. A stairwell entry to the upper lodge floors is located on the street front at the north corner of the building.</p><br>
<p>116-118 South Michigan Street 1887&lt;1892 Old Argos Opera House / Huff Block is an Italianate, two-story, brick building, two bay in width. It dominates the 100 block of South Michigan in its height and design. The street level facade has been modernized with aluminum and glass. The upper facade remains unchanged. On the second floor are six masonry openings with half-round brick arches. The northern window has a lower sill, which would have provided access to a porch along the front over the sidewalk. The sills are smooth-faced limestone and the brick arches form hoods slightly raised from the face of the facade. The building is topped with a brick parapet of a simple corbelled design with stepped horizontal courses and vertical "brackets". The center of the parapet is a brick half-round approximately 6 by high. Access to the Opera hall on the second floor is from a stairwell at the south end (left) of the building.</p><br>
<p>102 North Michigan Street 1917 Farmers State Bank Block is a Neo-Classical, two-story, masonry building. Located on the Corner of Walnut and Michigan Streets, it has two complete limestone facades. Its height is accentuated by using elongated pilasters rising from the foundation to the pediment. This creates artificial bays. This is one of the few buildings that retains it original architecture at the street level. It is faced with smooth-faced cut limestone. Two horizontal rows of large blocks form a base, which is capped with a continuous water table. The water table acts as a plinth for the pilasters. Each pilaster has a simple base and is topped with a squared Doric capitals. The Walnut Street façade is separated into six two-story bays. A single two-story bay is angled toward the intersecting streets. On Michigan Street, the south half of the facade is the original c. 1915. It is separated into three two-story bays. The main entrance is in the center bay. The north half was added about 1960 and duplicates the original, but it is only a single story.</p><br>
<p>In each bay of the bank, are window openings using a recessed limestone panel and a raised rectangular frame. The northern section (1960 addition) is only one story, but the roof line has been maintained with a limestone screen. Where window openings exist in the original part, there is patterned stone block. The window and entrances have been modernized. A cornice marks the roof line on both street fronts. The cornice is topped with a limestone parapet.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>When Center Township was organized in February 1836, Plymouth was chosen as the county seat. It consisted of a few log houses. Growth was slow until the railroads arrived in the 1850s. Center Township&#39;s economy was based on agriculture which expanded with the railroads, and Plymouth developed as a commercial center. The Downtown Historic District reflects that development and growth.</p><br>
<p>The Michigan Road was built from the Ohio River at Madison, through Indianapolis through Plymouth and South Bend to Lake Michigan in the 1800s. It had a right-of-way of 100 ft. In Plymouth, main commercial blocks formed along the line of the right-of-way. Michigan Street was and remains the principal commercial corridor.</p><br>
<h2>Location and description</h2><br>
<p>The district extends along the Michigan Road, now Michigan Street. The cross street at the southern end of the district is the LaPorte Trail or LaPorte Street, which runs between the Pennsylvania Railroad Depot on the west and the East Laporte Street Footbridge (National Register) on the east, over the Yellow River. Garro Street bi-sects the district. Just east of the district, Garro Street ends at the Yellow River, across from Lincoln High School, noted for its landscaping by Jens Jensen. The north end of the district is along Washington Street.</p><br>
<p>The width of Michigan Street allowed for wide sidewalks and angled parking. Over 90% of the buildings are two story structures, of 30 to 40 ft in height. The facades are continuous, without a gap within the district. The eastern boundary (Water Street) and the western boundary (Central Street) have 60 ft right-of-ways. Water Street consists principally of one story, twentieth century functional structures and is primarily commercial in nature.</p><br>

<p>The Rockland Breakwater is a breakwater sheltering the harbor of Rockland, Maine. More than 4,000 ft long, it was built in the 1890s by the United States Army Corps of Engineers out of locally quarried granite to improve the harbor&#39;s ability to shelter ships from coastal storms. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The city of Rockland is located on the west side of Penobscot Bay in the Mid Coast region of Maine. Its harbor, long regarded as one of the finest east of Portland, was frequently used in the 19th century as a safe harbor during bad weather. It was less than ideally suited to this task, because its large east-facing opening would still subject ships at anchor to storms with winds from the northeast. Major storms in the 1850s highlighted the need for improved harbor protection, but federal appropriations for a project were not approved until 1880. Between 1880 and 1900 the United States Army Corps of Engineers, under a series of Congressional appropriations, built the breakwater. The lighthouse standing at its end was added in 1902.</p><br>
<p>The breakwater extends south from Jameson Point (marking the northern point of the harbor mouth), and has a total length of 4,364 ft. It is built out of locally quarried granite, and has a roughly trapezoidal cross-section, its seaward face sloping more gradually than the harbor side, in order to better take the battering of sea waves. The top of the breakwater is about 43 ft wide, while its underwater base is an estimated 175 ft wide. The visible top is formed out of coursed granite blocks. About 700,000 tons of rock were used in its construction. The breakwater is believed to be unique among Army Corps 19th-century breakwaters in its exclusive use of local materials.</p><br>
