<p>The Capts. Louis and Philomene Daniels House is a historic house at 50 Macdonough Drive in Vergennes, Vermont. Built in 1868, this vernacular waterfront house was home to Philomene Daniels, believed to be the first woman to be given a steamship captain&#39;s license. She, her husband Louis, and their two sons operated the Daniels Boat Line, providing freight and passenger service between Vergennes and Westport, New York. Their house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Daniels House stands northwest of downtown Vergennes, on the north side of Macdonough Drive opposite Macdonough Park and the Vergennes city dock. The house is a modest vernacular -story wood-frame structure. It is L-shaped, with a front-facing gabled main block, an ell extending to the west, and a shed-roof section extending across the rear. A shed-roof porch extends across the front, and there are entrances in both the front of the ell and the side of the main block. The interior retains original flooring and trim elements.</p><br>
<p>Philomene Daniels was a native of Quebec whose family moved to Vergennes in the 1850s. In 1862 she married Louis Daniels, a native of Panton who was also of French-Canadian extraction. In 1869 he began working aboard the Water Lily, a small steamboat which he purchased in 1880. By 1877 he had acquired both pilot and engineering licenses for operating the ship, which carried freight and passengers down Otter Creek to Lake Champlain and across to Westport, New York. The couples two sons began assisting their father in the operation of the service, and Philomene also joined the family business. Seeking to become "as good a pilot as any man", she secured a pilots license in 1887, a feat which garnered international headlines. The family eventually acquired or built three more steamships, which plied the lake until 1916, when other forms of transport rendered it unprofitable.</p><br>
<p>Wildwood Hall is a historic house on Moore&#39;s Hill Road in Newbury, Vermont. Also known locally as The Castle, it is a distinctive example of Shingle style architecture, designed as a country house by William M. Butterfield and completed in 1895. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Wildwood Hall stands in southeastern Newbury, on a hillside overlooking the Connecticut River valley to the east and south. It is set on the north side of Moore&#39;s Hill Road, on an 11 acre parcel that is formally landscaped in the immediate vicinity of the house. The house is a -story, its first floor built out of uncoursed fieldstone, and its upper levels framed in wood and clad in wooden shingles. The main block is covered by a gabled roof, while the crossing ell has a gambrel roof. At the crook of the ell, a round tower with conical roof rises above a squared porch supported by fieldstone columns. The interior retains original Queen Anne woodwork, and a mosaic marble floor in its main floor.</p><br>
<p>The house was built between 1893 and 1895, for George Moore, on a site that was documented as early as 1799 for its magnificent views of the river valley. It was designed by William M. Butterfield of Manchester, New Hampshire, who had a reputation for high-quality Queen Anne and Shingle style designs. Moore lived here until his death in 1905.</p><br>
<p>The Burlington Bay Horse Ferry is a shipwreck in Lake Champlain off Burlington, Vermont, United States. It is the only known example of a turntable horse ferry, a ship type that was common on United States waterways in the mid-19th century. The wreck is a Vermont State Historic Site, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. Its location is marked by buoys in Burlington Bay between the northern end of the Burlington Breakwater and Lone Rock Point, and it is visitable by certified divers.</p><br>
<h2>Archaeological history</h2><br>
<p>The remains of the horse ferry were discovered in 1983 during a side-scan sonar survey of Burlington Bay. Through the 1980s it was subjected to several investigations, including a National Geographic expedition that was published in 1988. Between 1989 and 1992 divers visited the site, in which test areas were excavated in order to document the structure of the vessel and its propulsion mechanism. The forward third of the ferry is missing, although there is evidence it was still attached at the time the ferry sank or was scuttled.</p><br>
<p>Based on analysis of the wreck, the ferry was 62 ft long, and had a beam of 15 ft. It had a maximum height of 4 ft, with a hold depth of 3 ft. The hull was double-ended, with a curved stempost and straight sternpost. Its propulsion mechanism followed a design patented in 1819 by Barnabas Langdon of Whitehall, New York. A central turntable, mounted at a level below the main deck, was connected by a gearing system to a sidewheel. Horses walked on the turntable, whose resulting rotation moved the sidewheel, providing forward motion through the water.</p><br>

<p>Rossiter-Little House is generally considered the oldest house in Sparta, Georgia. The present structure was built onto and around a log cabin . The structure was built on the highest point in Sparta and used initially as a fort. Beneath the crawlspace of the present house, the original structure of the log foundation is still in place. The Rossiter-Little House was probably built about 1798 when Timothy Wells Rossiter, a Revolutionary War surgeon from Connecticut, bought the northeast corner lot at Broad and Miles Streets or the year after that when he bought the adjoining lot to the east. It is a contributing property of the Sparta Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. It is also part of the Historic American Buildings Survey.</p><br>
<p>The main part of the house is built on a classic New England saltbox design typical of the 17th and 18th centuries. Dr. Rossiter displays his ancestral ties by building a house in a form distinct to that region. This style of house became used infrequently at the close of the eighteenth century for large home construction as the more popular Georgian and Federal styles were used throughout the region and may offer an insight into the house design he had been familiar with (or lived in) prior to emigrating to Georgia from Connecticut.</p><br>
<p>The Rossiter-Little House has been modified, however, from the archetypical New England form by having two front projecting wings or ells with an inset front porch or gallery between them. This is an atypical design for New England, but it does appear infrequently in some late 18th and early 19th century Southern plantations, such as the Kingsley Plantation (c. 1798) in Duval County, Florida, just below the Georgia border.</p><br>
<h2>Architectural description</h2><br>
<p>A 1983 description of the house from The Georgia Catalog, Historic American Buildings Survey: "Frame with clapboarding, flush siding under porch, Central block 30 4" (three bay front) with projecting wings 18 2" (one-bay front). One and one-half stories, central block with spraddle roof and dormer windows, the wings with gable roofs. Two exposed end chimneys, two end chimneys within exterior walls, one interior chimney. Three bay front porch across central block, terminating at wings. Columns and frieze with Chinese lattice-design insets. Full length windows on porch. Six panel entrance door with transom. Central hall plan. Original part built before 1812, possible late 18th Century. Wings and front porch built before 1860, windows on porch probably enlarged at same time. Rear ell added later. Dormer windows in front enlarged and changed before 1937. Porch probably had balustrade, probably sheaf of wheat design. This removed before 1937. 3 exterior photos (1937), 1 interior photo (1936), 1 data page (1936). Illustrated on p, 157"</p><br>

<p>Shadyside is a historic house in Natchez, Mississippi, USA</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built on land from the Concord Plantation. Ralph North, a Jefferson College alumnus, judge and slaveholder, purchased 14 acres in 1849 and built the house in 1850.

<p>Point of Rocks is a geologically significant outcropping located along USA Route 12  in the Town of Baraboo in Sauk County, Wisconsin, United States, southwest of the city of Baraboo. The formation is made up of Baraboo Quartzite and is part of the Baraboo Range; it dates from the Precambrian and is roughly 1.7 billion years old. Along with the nearby Van Hise Rock, the formation was instrumental in the University of Wisconsin–Madison&#39;s development of the field of geology in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The formation is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Point of Rocks is located along the east side of a curve in US 12, 0.25 mi south of its intersection with Wisconsin Highway 159. The outcropping itself is around 4,000 ft thick and consists of maroon, pink, and purple quartzite, while the surrounding area is covered by trees. The formation was created roughly 1.7 billion years ago and, as part of the Baraboo Range, is a remnant of a Precambrian mountain range. The rocks feature ripple patterns created by waves and tides, indicating that the surrounding area was once flooded by a sea. Geological concepts exhibited by the outcropping include stratification and structural deformation; the formation is often used as an illustrative example of the latter for geology students.</p><br>
<h2>Modern history</h2><br>
<p>Point of Rocks, Van Hise Rock, and a number of other nearby geological features played an important role in the development of the field of geology by the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Prior to the late 19th century, geology was largely considered a descriptive field and focused primarily on surveys used to locate mineral resources. UW–Madison geologist Roland Irving was the first to focus his studies on the Baraboo Range, beginning through his work on an 1873 survey of the area. His student and eventual fellow faculty member Charles Van Hise continued his work, in which he was later joined by Charles Leith and Warren Mead. These geologists&#39; studies of the exposed rock formations in the Baraboo Range led to advancements in the theory of how rock behaves when stressed, pioneering the field of structural geology. In addition, their work helped transform geology from a descriptive science to a theoretical one.</p><br>
<p>The formation was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 11, 2010.</p><br>

<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The harbor of Burlington, Vermont is located near the center of Burlington Bay, which extends from Appletree Point in the north to Shelburne Point in the south. Set off from the city&#39;s port area, the Burlington Breakwater shelters that area from the broad waters of Lake Champlain to west. The breakwater consists of a main section 3,793 ft in length, with a 364 ft section to the north, separated by a channel 200 ft wide. The structure has seven legs laid out in a zig-zag pattern, laid out to roughly follow the contour of the shoreline. Its visible portions are covered by a variety of stone materials. Its underwater structure consists of timber cribs, most laid on a rubble foundation, that are filled with rubblestone. The cribs are hemlock at the lower levels and white pine at the upper levels, and are joined by notched corners. Most of the upper levels of the cribbing have been replaced by stone because of subsequent rotting. The lake-facing side of the breakwater was largely faced in riprap in 1961. The ends of the breakwater are marked by modern lights.</p><br>
<p>The oldest portion of the breakwater, about 1,000 ft long, was built between 1836 and 1854, and consists of the middle sections of the present structure. It was built as part of a program by the federal War Department to improve shelter for the major port facilities on Lake Champlain.</p><br>
<p>Near the breakwater&#39;s southern end lies the shipwrecked General Butler, which struck the breakwater during a storm in 1876 and sank, its passengers and crew reaching safety on the breakwater before she sank. It is now a popular dive site.</p><br>

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Cornwall&#39;s town hall stands in its small village center, on the east side of Vermont Route 30, just north of its junction with Vermont Route 74. It is a -story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof, clapboarded exterior, and a foundation of stone and concrete. The eaves are studded with Italianate brackets, and the upper floor windows of the front section have peaked lintels. The front entrance is framed by sidelights and pilasters, and is also topped by a peaked gable. The interior is divided into town offices on the ground floor, with an auditorium space on the second floor. A single-story shed-roof addition extends to the rear.</p><br>
<p>The town hall was built in 1880, a period of prosperity in the town occasioned by its success as a merino sheep farming community. The rear addition, housing kitchen facilities, was added during alterations in 1905 to accommodate the town&#39;s Grange chapter, which was founded in 1903. The Grange funded a number of other improvements, including an updated heating plant, and the eventual electrification of the building. Its exterior architectural elements resemble designs of Middlebury architect Clinton G. Smith, although the designer of this building is not known with certainty.</p><br>
<p>The Old Chittenden County Courthouse was a historic government building at 180 Church Street in downtown Burlington, the county seat of Chittenden County, Vermont. Built in 1872, it was a richly decorated example of Second Empire architecture, occupying a prominent position in the city&#39;s civic nucleus, which also included Burlington City Hall and the United States Post Office and Custom House. It served as the county courthouse until it was destroyed by fire on February 9, 1982. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and removed from the register in 2016.</p><br>
<p>Rogers Clark Ballard Memorial School is a historic building in Glenview, Kentucky, part of the Louisville metropolitan area.</p><br>
<p>It was built in 1914 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>John Bacon Hutchings (1859–1916) was the architect for the Arts and Crafts-style building. The school was named after Rogers Clark Ballard, a boy who died in 1909. He was from a prominent family in Louisville, and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. Thruston Ballard, donated the site for the school from their land and gave $6,000 toward the building. The school began as a result of a joint effort by parents and the county board of education. When it opened in 1914, the school replaced four one-room schools in eastern Jefferson County.</p><br>
<p>The school was known as Ballard School. It originally accepted students from different areas, but that changed in 1949, when the county board adopted a resolution that students had to attend school in the district where they lived. This school eventually closed in 1959. It was superseded by Wilder Elementary School in the Jefferson County Public School system. Ballard High School, which opened nearby in 1968, was named for this previous school.</p><br>
<p>The building is now the home of a private school, Virginia Chance School, for students age 2 through fifth grade. The school is situated on 26 acres on a bluff overlooking the Ohio River, surrounded by woods and fields. The two-story main building has had extensive renovation that was designed to remain sensitive to the history of the building as the former Rogers Clark Ballard Memorial School.</p><br>
<p>Bellevoir is a historic home in Lyndon, Kentucky, a part of the Louisville metropolitan area.</p><br>
<p>The house was built ca. 1867 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>The Italianate-style home was built by Hamilton Ormsby, a member of a prominent family in Jefferson County. It is a -story brick house.</p><br>
<p>The property was later used as a childrens home with its own school. The childrens home began in 1912 as the Parental Home and School. It later merged with the Louisville Industrial School of Reform (formerly the Louisville House of Refuge) and was known as the Louisville and Jefferson County Children&#39;s Home. When it moved to the old Ormsby family farm, the home became Ormsby Village, serving dependent and delinquent children. The site originally had a separate home and school, Ridgewood, for African-American children. Segregation was ended in the early 1960s, and the homes were merged into Ormsby Village. The home was changed to the Ormsby Village Treatment Center in 1968, serving only delinquent children. It closed in 1979. The buildings were used by Jefferson County government for offices during the 1980s until the property was developed as an office park. Although the institutional buildings were razed, the Ormsby family home, Bellevoir, was preserved.</p><br>
<p>The office park development plan called for preservation of 14 acres surrounding the Bellevoir mansion, with the historic building serving as a center for meetings and receptions.</p><br>
<p>The Cornwall General Store, also known as the LaValley General Store, was a historic commercial building at 2635 Vermont Route 30 in the center of Cornwall, Vermont. Built in 1880 and in retail use for more than half a century, it was a well-preserved example of a dwindling business type, the rural general store with attached residence, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005. Sold to the town for preservation in 2000, it was demolished about 2013.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Cornwall General Store was located in the small village center of Cornwall, on the east side of Vermont Route 30, immediately south of Cornwall Town Hall. It was a rambling -story wood-frame structure, with a gable-roofed main section that has additions to both sides and the rear. It was finished in wooden clapboards, and the main block and left addition had a Victorian porch extending across them. The interior of the store had retained many original features, including store fixtures and oil lamps on the wall.</p><br>
<p>The store was built about 1880 by Conrad Frost, at a time when the towns village center was just beginning to take shape. The Congregational Church and village common had been a focal point since 1803, and the town hall had just been built. Frosts choice of location was well made, for he drove a well-established store a short way north of the center out of business by 1890. The store was bought in 1918 by William LaValley, and was operated by his family until 1940. May LaValley occupied the residential portion of the building until 1997, and in 2000 it was sold by her heirs to the town in the hopes that it would be preserved. In 2012, the town voted to either demolish or sell the dilapidated structure. Funds for its demolition were appropriated in 2013, and in 2014 the town was considering other uses of the parcel, including for a potential expansion of town hall.</p><br>
<p>The Burlington Traction Company is a historic trolley maintenance facility at Riverside Avenue and North Winooski Avenue in Burlington, Vermont. The property includes two brick trolley barns, built c. 1900 and c. 1910 respectively, that were used as public transit maintenance facilities until 1999, after which they were adaptively repurposed to other residential and commercial uses. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The former maintenance facility of the Burlington Traction Company is located in Burlington&#39;s Old North End neighborhood, on a triangular parcel bounded on the north by Riverside Avenue and the southeast by North Winooski Avenue. The property includes three historic buildings and a modern apartment house, as well as a small public park at the intersection of the two roadways. Abutting Riverside Avenue is a long and narrow single-story gable-roofed brick building, built as a trolley barn about 1910, with an adjoining battery house dating to about 1905. Facing North Winooski Avenue is a larger brick barn, built about 1900. Its main facade consists of four large bays that have finished in small-pane glass and adapted to commercial use. Between this building and the triangular park stands the modern apartment house.</p><br>
<p>The property was used as a transit maintenance facility since at least 1885 when the Winooski and Burlington Horse Railway Corporation built a maintenance building for its horsecars. Its successors, the Burlington Traction Company and Burlington Rapid Transit, built and expanded the surviving facilities, which were used first for streetcars and then buses until 1999. The last tenant of the maintenance facility was Vermont Transit Lines.</p><br>
<p>Chipman&#39;s Point is a historic 19th-century ferry complex on Chipman Point Road in Orwell, Vermont. The complex includes two early 19th-century stone warehouses, a former Lake Champlain ferry landing site , and the foundational remains of the Chipman Point Hotel. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Chipman&#39;s Point is located on the eastern shore of Lake Champlain, in its narrow southern reach opposite Wright, New York. Chipman Point Road leads to the area from Vermont Route 73A, and ends at a former ferry landing slip, now used as a local boat launch and fishing site. To the south of the landing, in an area now occupied by a local marina, stand two large four-story stone warehouses, built on limestone outcrops directly on the lakeshore. On a terraced rise above the two warehouses are the foundational remnants of the Chipman Point Hotel. The warehouses and hotel ruins are composed mainly of local limestone, which probably came from quarry sites on nearby stone outcrops.</p><br>
<p>At the middle of the 19th century, Chipmans Point was one of Orwells largest and busiest economic and commercial centers, with a church, post office, hotel, and residences, all oriented toward the ferry and shipping business. The warehouses were built to store goods awaiting passage by ship or to be picked up for local delivery, and the hotel (which burned in 1952) served travelers. The importance of the lake for transportation declined after the arrival of the railroad in the region in 1849, and even the ferry service across the lake was discontinued in 1975.</p><br>
<p>The Allenwood Farm is a historic farm property on United States Route 2 in Plainfield, Vermont. Developed in 1827 by Allen Martin, the son of an early settler, it is a well-preserved example of a transitional Federal-Greek Revival detached farmstead. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Allenwood Farm is located at the western edge of Plainfield village, on the north side of United States Route 2 just east of its junction with Vermont Route 214. The farm property, spanning over 50 acres, consists of rolling fields arrayed on three sides of the farm complex. Included in that complex are a renovated farmhouse, a year-round cottage, an 8600 square foot insulated riding arena, two barns, and several smaller outbuildings. The farmhouse, set close to the road but screened by a dense growth of hedge-like trees, is a 1-1/2 story brick Cape style structure, five bays wide and three deep, with a side gable roof. It has Greek Revival window treatments, and a Greek Revival door topped by a Federal style frieze and flanked by sidelight windows. The interior retains a similar combination of original woodwork. To the house&#39;s northwest are two barns of 19th-century construction, one of which may be older than the house.</p><br>
<p>The farm property is part of land acquired around the turn of the 19th century by Jesse Martin, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War. The brick house was built in 1827 by his son Allen, and has remained since then in the hands of his descendants. A wing of the house, of log construction, may have been built by Jesse Martin; it was known in the family as Allens Cottage, and was where Jesse Martin lived the last few years of his life. Allen Martins grandnephew, Willard S. Martin, Jr., was a successful businessman who developed the opulent Greatwood estate on land west of the farmstead; it is now the Goddard College Greatwood Campus.</p><br>
