<p>The Tallulah Coca-Cola Bottling Plant in Tallulah, Louisiana, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 23, 2013.</p><br>
<p>The building was a Coca-Cola bottling plant until 1962, when it was converted to use as a Coca-Cola distribution warehouse. The facility was operated by Joe Biedenharn, "the first person to bottle Coca-Cola."</p><br>
<p>The plant is a brick industrial building built on a poured concrete foundation in about 1930 and expanded, almost doubling its size, in about 1940. A partial second story at the front is supported by steel columns. The building has a Classical Revival front facade.</p><br>
<p>The M.E. Beebe Historic District. in Fargo, North Dakota, is a.48 acre historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.</p><br>
<p>It consists of six contributing buildings on three lots. All were built between about 1881 and 1906. One was moved and reoriented on the property. Two were moved from elsewhere to this location.</p><br>
<p>It includes an office of architect Milton Earl Beebe and four buildings designed by him, including at least one of his own residences while he lived in Fargo. Beebe lived in Fargo from about 1900 to 1911.</p><br>
<p>"The proposed historic district was the site of Beebe’s office, for about six years, as well as his place of residence for nine years. As speculative rental properties, the district’s other five contributing buildings—three of which were also designed by him—constitute Beebe’s own participation in the Boom’s economic potential. The length of his residence in North Dakota coincides almost exactly with the Boom’s duration and intensity. And his architectural output during the years 1898-1912 reflect the architectural aspirations of the period and compares favorably with contemporary work by the Hancock Brothers and W. C. Albrant (Fargo), Joseph B. DeRemer (Grand Forks) and Arthur Van Horn (Bismarck), his principal competitors."</p><br>
<p>Pritchard&#39;s Outlook Historic District is a primarily residential historic district, roughly bounded by Park Drive, Walnut Street, Crescent Street, and Davis Street, in Allegan, Michigan. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first houses built in Allegan were constructed for the Allegan Company in what is now the mill area in the heart of the city in 1836. As the commercial district there grew, at least four of these houses were moved to new locations within what is now the Pritchard&#39;s Outlook Historic District. These four houses still exist, located at 220 Pine, 500 Cedar, 334 Cutler, and 416 Cutler. A short time after the Allegan Company houses were built, John Askins, a carpenter and millwright from Rochester, New York, built his private home downtown. In 1863, it was moved to 417 Monroe.</p><br>
<p>In 1838 and 1839, some of the first houses with in the district were built at 409 and 415 Monroe. Reflecting the influx of residents into Allegan, more houses were constructed through the 1860s and 1870s, representing a broad range of building and architectural types, and housing many of Allegan&#39;s prominent early settlers. Early residents include foundry owner Alby Rossman, O. T. Booth, merchant Albert Stegeman, Colonel Elisha Mix, Colonel William Williams, and General</p><br>
<p>Benjamin Pritchard. Allegan grew slowly in the 1880s, and few houses date to this period. However, growth restarted in the late 1890s and early 1900s, and later structures in the neighborhood date to the first portion of the 20th century.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Pritchards Outlook Historic District is a large residential historic district located near Allegans central business district. The district contains 223 structures, including 204 residences, eleven carriage houses, six churches, three office buildings, a fire station, and a school. Of these 223 structures, 206 contribute to the historic character of the neighborhood. The streets are narrow and lined with large trees, with predominantly frame houses in a range of sizes and styles. The bulk of the houses within the district date from 1850 to 1900, and primarily include Italianate, Queen Anne, and Colonial Revival architectural styles. However, the district also contains Greek Revival, and Gothic Revival, and Craftsman buildings, as well as a smattering of other styles.</p><br>
<p>The district includes the oldest houses still extant in Allegan, which were moved from their original location near downtown. It also includes the oldest houses in the city still located on their original foundations. Particularly significant are four of the churches in the district:</p><br>
<p>Seventh-Day Adventist Church (229 Cutler) The oldest church in Allegan is a frame Greek Revival and Italianate structure built in 1863. It has an octagonal belfry, twelve-over-twelve windows, corner pilasters and a fanlight above the pilastered entry.</p><br>
<p>First Presbyterian Church (200 Cutler) This brick Romanesque Revival structure, with a tall spire was built in 1875.</p><br>
<p>First Congregational Church (323 Cutler) This frame Gothic structure, built in 1882, has a pair of towers in the front.</p><br>
<p>Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church (439 Trowbridge) This idiosyncratic Romanesque church was built in 1935.</p><br>
<p>The Brownell School and Annex are three historic former public school buildings located on Sumner Street in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. The Queen Anne-style main building was designed by prominent local architect John Eisenmann, and erected from 1884 to 1885. The first annex was designed by noted local architect Frank Seymour Barnum, and completed in 1905. The second annex, also by Barnum, was finished in 1909. Several individuals of local and national importance were educated there or taught school there, and the building served as the first campus of Cuyahoga Community College in 1962. The building was sold to private owners in 1979, and the complex underwent a major renovation from 1983 to 1985.</p><br>
<p>The buildings are a contributing property to the Lower Prospect-Huron Historic District, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 19, 1995. The buildings themselves were added to the National Register on February 1, 2006.</p><br>
<h2>About the buildings</h2><br>
<h3>First school (demolished circa 1865)</h3><br>
<p>On July 30, 1850, the city of Cleveland purchased for $600 ($ in dollars) lot number 10 on Clinton Street (later known as Brownell Street, and still later as E. 14th Street). This 100 by lot (known today as 2261 E. 14th Street) was purchased for the purpose of erecting a public school. Construction of a 44 by, two-story brick structure began in the fall of 1851. Local builder John Gill constructed the school at a cost of $3,500 ($ in dollars). The school opened in January 1852.</p><br>
<p>The Clinton School, as it was originally known, proved immensely popular with area residents. It became so overcrowded after just a single semester that in July 1852 the school board ordered that a third floor be added to the structure. This was built by Josiah Chase during the summer, at a cost of $175 ($ in dollars). A 24 by, one-story wooden addition was added in 1856, again to alleviate overcrowding.</p><br>
<h3>Second school (demolished 1930)</h3><br>
<p>In May 1863, the Cleveland Board of Education determined that a new, larger school was needed to replace the 1851 structure. The city purchased lots 17, 18, and 19 on the southern corner of the intersection of Sumner Street and Brownell avenue in September 1863. Noted local architect Simeon Porter designed the structure. With the American Civil War proving a drain on city finances, it was not until August 1864 that local builder Levi Aust was given a contract to build the new school. The 25-room brick grammar school, was completed in May 1865. It was named the Brownell Street School. The original school and its addition were demolished, and the original lot sold.</p><br>
<p>By at least 1874, the structures name had been shortened to "Brownell School". With Clevelands population rising rapidly, the Brownell School once more became overcrowded. Six temporary buildings had been moved onto the Brownell Street School lot or erected there by 1880, and two rooms rented in a nearby church, to provide room for the expanded student population.</p><br>
<h3>Third school (completed 1885)</h3><br>
<p>Rapidly expanding student populations led the Cleveland Board of Education to approve construction of a large annex to the Brownell School in December 1883. Two lots (22 and 23), totaling 88 by, were purchased for $3,048 ($ in dollars). Temporary school structures, recently condemned by the Cleveland Health Board, were demolished.</p><br>
<p>A two-story, eight room building, in the Queen Anne architectural style, designed by prominent local architect John Eisenmann, was built. This $19,397 ($ in dollars) edifice was nearing completion in March 1885, and opened in September 1885. This annex was known as the Sumner School, or "Brownell Relief" building.</p><br>
<h3>Fourth school (completed 1905)</h3><br>
<p>In January 1903, the Board of Education approved the construction of a six-room annex building for the Brownell School. The land, constituting the remainder of the block, was purchased in 1903, at a cost of about $3,000 ($ in dollars).</p><br>
<p>Prominent local architect Frank Seymour Barnum, who had served as the school district&#39;s staff architect since 1895, designed the structure. Although only six rooms, each of the rooms was 35 percent larger than in the other buildings. The structure cost $29,561 ($ in dollars), for a total cost (building, land, and improvements) of $33,475 ($ in dollars).</p><br>
<h3>Fifth school (completed 1909)</h3><br>
<p>The 1905 building proved only to be a stop-gap measure. In June 1908, the school district approved construction of a new wing, to cost $10,000, to connect the Brownell and Sumner schools. The work included adding a third floor (containing an auditorium) to the Sumner School, and building a 19 by pool in the basement of the addition. Also designed by Barnum, construction began in November 1908 with general contractor D.C. Griese & Walker overseeing the work.</p><br>
<p>The connecting wing opened in mid-March 1909.</p><br>
<h2>Post-construction history of the structures</h2><br>
<h3>Historicity of the structures</h3><br>
<p>By 1909, Brownell School was one of the most advanced in the city. It was believed to be one of the first schools in the United States to have a swimming pool, According to the United States Bureau of the Census, the school was the most ethnically diverse in the nation, with 41 nationalities represented among its 1,436 pupils.</p><br>
<p>Changing demographics led the school board to transform Brownell from an elementary school to a junior high school in 1918.</p><br>
<p>In February 1930, the decrepit 1884 Brownell School (the "second school") was demolished.</p><br>
<p>Beginning in 1933, a rapidly declining school-age population in the neighborhood led the Cleveland Board of Education to propose that Brownell School be closed. Construction of the Cedar-Central Apartments, erected in 1937 one of the first three public housing projects in the nation, gave brought new students to Brownell and prevented its closure for a time. Calls for the school to close were still made repeatedly over the next 25 years. However, every proposal was met with strong resistance by residents who called Brownell "possibly Cleveland&#39;s most historic school". Laura Spelman, the future wife of John D. Rockefeller, was a teacher and assistant principal there for a time between 1963 and 1968. Alumni included Winfred G. Leutner, president of Western Reserve University; Anthony J. Celebrezze, 49th mayor of Cleveland, fifth Secretary of Health and Human Services, and judge on the Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit; Frank D. Celebrezze, Cleveland municipal court judge; George J. Matowitz, Chief of the Cleveland Division of Police from 1931 to 1951; James Metzenbaum, prominent local attorney and former Ohio state senator (1935 to 1936 and 1941 to 1942); Mary B. Grossman, Cleveland municipal court judge and the first female municipal court judge in the nation. and Samuel E. Kramer, a Cleveland municipal court judge for six years and Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas judge for 35 years.</p><br>
<h3>1958 closure</h3><br>
<p>The construction of the Willow Freeway (begun in 1938 and later designated Interstate 77) and Interstate 90 (which began in 1954, and is also known as the Inner Belt Freeway) caused rapid depopulation of the neighborhoods around the Brownell School. After attendance dropped by more than half (to under 200) in the spring of 1958,</p><br>
<p>The Board of Education initially attempted to sell the buildings. The first attempt, which ended in February 1961, brought only a single bid of $100,000 ($ in dollars). This bid, made by nearby Saint Maron Maronite Catholic Church, was far below</p><br>
<h3>Tri-C use</h3><br>
<p>In July 1961, the state of Ohio adopted legislation allowing counties to establish community colleges, technical institutes, and branches of state universities. The law into effect on October 20, 1961, and three days later the Cuyahoga County Commission established the Cuyahoga Community College (Tri-C). Local community leaders first suggested that Tri-C use the closed Brownell School as a temporary campus just two days after the Ohio legislature passed the bill. Local health and safety officials approved reused of the building, so long as some fire safety improvements were made. The interior of the Brownell School was heavily remodeled over the next nine months, and Tri-C opened its doors on September 23, 1963.</p><br>
<p>Tri-Co occupied the Brownell School (and other buildings) until the fall of 1968, when the first structure on its new Metropolitan Campus opened. It largely vacated the old school in 1969, when the remainder of the new campus opened. A few Tri-C administrative offices remained in the Brownell School until 1973.</p><br>
<h3>Private ownership</h3><br>
<p>The Tri-C having vacated the Brownell School, the school district had the structure reappraised in anticipation of selling it again. The new appraisal but the value of the building and land at $165,000 ($ in dollars). In January 1979, the Cleveland Postal Employees Credit Union successfully bid $145,000 ($ in dollars) for the structure, placing it in private hands.</p><br>
<p>The Brownell School complex changed hands a second time in 1983, when local Irrigation Supply Inc. president Dave Vanderwist and his investment partners acquired the property. The three buildings underwent a $1.85 million ($ in dollars) restoration. court, and the showers and steam room updated. A small fitness center was added as well. The schools auditorium was renovated into open plan office space (first used by a law firm), and the building skylight repaired and reopened. Reporter Lou Mio of The Plain Dealer newspaper called the renovated structure "a restored jewel" and "one of Clevelands best-kept secrets".</p><br>

<p>The Downtown Allegan Historic District is a primarily commercial historic district, roughly bounded by Trowbridge, Locust, Hubbard, Brady, and Water Streets, in Allegan, Michigan. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The central portion of Allegan was platted in 1835. What is now the central business district began to developed in the late 1830s and 1840s, and was greatly enhanced by the opening of railroad lines in 1868–71. An 1869 fire cleared a large portion of Brady Street, allowing the 1870 construction of the Chaffee House, a three-story hotel. However, a devastating fire in March 1884 wiped out nearly the entire business district, leaving only a few buildings standing on Brady, including the Chaffee House. Nearly the entire business district was rebuilt in 1884–85.</p><br>
<p>A fire in 1902 destroyed the Chaffee block, and some of the other structures have been renovated of replaced in the years since the 1880s. However, the late 19th century character of the district remains largely intact.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Downtown Allegan Historic District contains sixty-nine structures, fifty-seven of which contribute to the historic character of the district. A handful of the buildings pre-date the 1884 fire. These include a simple false-front structure at 422 Water Street, built in 1855, and the string of stores at 135, 145, 149, and 155 Brady, all constructed in 1874.</p><br>
<p>The bulk of the buildings in the district were built in the 1880s. These are typically two-story late Victorian brick commercial structures. Many of these have original upper facades, but store entrance levels have been remodeled. A last group of buildings in the district were built in the very early 1900s.</p><br>

<p>The Griswold Civic Center Historic District is a small historic district containing eight civic and religious buildings, roughly bounded by Hubbard, Walnut, and Trowbridge Streets, in Allegan, Michigan. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original 1837 Allegan Company platting of the community provided a large plat of land as a public square. In 1839–41, the county constructed a jail and associated residence on the square, and added a brick county office building in 1847. A larger jail was built in 1861, and larger office building in 1871. In 1889, the county built a large courthouse in the center of the square. The jail was replaced one more time in 1905–06 with the present structure.</p><br>
<p>In the meantime, three church congregations constructed their churches surrounding the square. The United Methodist Church was founded in 1836, and in 1905 constructed the present building, the third on the same site. The First Baptist Church was established in 1841 and built the current structure in 1892–93. The Church of the Good Shepherd was founded in 1859 and still uses their original church building, constructed in 1867–69.</p><br>
<p>In the early twentieth century, Allegan&#39;s population increased, growing 20% between 1911 and 1917. IN 1913, community leaders obtained a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Foundation to construct a new library. Plans were prepared by Grant Miller, a Chicago architect, and the library was constructed in 1914. Later, in 1981, local philanthropist Marilla Griswold left $100,000 to the city to build an auditorium and general meeting place. Despite delays, the Griswold Memorial Auditorium was completed until 1929.</p><br>
<p>The county replaced the courthouse with a modern structure in 1960–61. In 1962, a new jail was built, and the old jail used for other things.</p><br>

<p>The Marshall Street Historic District is a primarily residential historic district located at 231-237, 335-705, and 232-630 Marshall Street in Allegan, Michigan. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Marshall Street Historic District is located on approximately seven city blocks along Marshall Street. It contains 57 structures, 56 of which contribute to the historic character of the district. Houses in the district are built in a range of architectural styles, including bungalows, Queen Anne, Italianate, and Colonial Revival houses, with some Dutch Colonial Revival, American Foursquare, and Greek Revival included. Most of the houses are wood frame covered with clapboard, although there are some houses built of brick or other construction.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Marshall Street was originally an Indian trail, and when Allegan was founded in the 1830s the trail was surveyed and improved. By 1852, the increasing traffic necessitated improvement, and a plank road was installed. As Allegan grew, residents began to build homes along Marshall, and the earliest buildings in the district were constructed (or moved to their current site) in the 1860s. In 1869, Alby Rossman constructed his home at 524 Marshall, and platted the surrounding area as the "Rossman Addition." Rossmans house anchors the center of the district. Rossmans construction precipitated a boom in house building along Marshall Street, with a number of both well-to-do and middle-class families building houses in the area after the Civil War.</p><br>
<p>Allegan&#39;s growth slowed in the latter part of the 19th century, and few of the hoses in the district date from the 1880s or 1890s. After the turn of the century, construction again picked up, with more houses built. Significantly, in 1890 the "John Robinson Hospital" (now the Elks Club) was built at the southern end of the district. A number of bungalows were built in the district in the 1910s and 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The Shady Point School, located on the northeastern edge of the community of Shady Point in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, was built in 1936 as a Works Progress Administration project. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>

<p>It was one of 48 buildings and 11 structures reviewed in a 1985 study of WPA works in southeastern Oklahoma, which led to almost all of them being listed on the National Register in 1988.</p><br>
<p>The Poteau School Gymnasium-Auditorium, located at Walter and Parker Sts. in Poteau in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, was built in 1937. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>It was a project of the Works Progress Administration.</p><br>
<p>It is a two-story 100 x building built of coursed cream-colored native sandstone, with a roof that is flat and gabled and has parapets.</p><br>
<p>Its NRHP nomination describes its importance:The gym/auditorium is significant because is provided space for school and community activities, especially basketball, which fostered a sense of identity and pride lacking in the depression era. Construction of it also provided work opportunities for unskilled and unemployed laborers in the Poteau area where few had existed previously. As a WPA building, the structure is notable for its size/scale. Within the community it is unique architecturally because of its type, style, scale, materials and workmanship.</p><br>

<p>The North Patterson Street Historic District is a historic district of 14 "grand homes" on North Patterson Street in Valdosta, Georgia. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<p>The district is 8.3 acre in size and has 14 contributing buildings, all one-story or two-story residences, along 1003 to 1111 N. Patterson Street. All but one of the homes were probably built during 1899 to 1909. The known exception is 1106 North Patterson which was designed by architect Lloyd Greer in 1919 to replace the 1902 J.C. Fender house which was moved and turned to face Mary Street instead (and is still included in the district). The expansion of downtown commercial area has destroyed grand homes which previously were located to the south of this section of Patterson Street.</p><br>
<p>It includes Classical Revival, Stick/Eastlake, and Victorian Eclectic architecture. Classical Revival is represented by 1007 North Patterson Street, which has a monumental portico with Corinthian columns.</p><br>

<p>It includes work by local architect Lloyd Greer and it includes Queen Anne and Colonial Revival architecture.</p><br>
<p>The John and Isabella Hooker House is a historic house at 140 Hawthorn Street in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in the 1850s and twice enlarged, it is a distinctive and large example of Italianate country villa architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Hooker House is located in Hartford&#39;s Asylum Hill neighborhood, near the southern end of a block bounded by Forest, Hawthorn, and South Marshall Streets. It is set back from each of these roads, and its location is obscured by apartment buildings that have been built on its former estate grounds. It is a large -story brick building trimmed in brownstone, with a roughly L-shaped plan. It has a gabled roof encrusted with a variety of projecting dormers and gable sections. All of these are adorned with carved vergeboard, which effectively encircles the building. Windows in these projections are Gothic lancet-style pointed arch windows.</p><br>
<p>The land for the house, then farmland, was bought in 1853 by John and Isabella Hooker, and construction of the house took place afterward. It was designed in the Italian villa style popularized by Andrew Jackson Downing and Calvert Vaux. In the 1860s it was enlarged to a plan by Octavius Jordan, a local builder also credited with construction of the Harriet Beecher Stowe House. It was the first house to be built in the Nook Farm part of Hartford, where a number of similar fine country villas were built, including the Stowe house and the Mark Twain House. Originally stories in height, the roof was raised in 1906 to add a stylistically sympathetic second story.</p><br>
<p>The Crescent, at 904 N. Patterson St. in Valdosta in Lowndes County, Georgia, is a Neoclassical house built in 1898. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>It is a three-story building with a monumental two-story semi-circular portico. It was designed by Atlanta architects Bleckley & Tyler and has also been known as the Colonel William S. West House.</p><br>
<p>The Skullyville County Jail, located west of Panama in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, was built in 1907. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.</p><br>
<p>It is a small building with two-foot-thick sandstone walls, and was built by contractor Elija W. Fannin. Its only ventilation is by its doorway and by a small window, 12 x in size, which has two sets of iron bars in it. Its door is a lattice of iron bars, which cost $55.65 from the firm of Sengel and Shulte. The jail has its original dirt floor, but has a newer roof, now covered in corrugated tin. It is significant as the only remaining artifact of the Skullyville County Government in the Choctaw Nation; a courthouse located to the north of the jail was burned in 1949.</p><br>
<p>It has also been known as Skullyville County Jail, Choctaw Nation.</p><br>
<p>The Sam Rayburn Library and Museum is a public research center, library, and museum at 800 West Sam Rayburn Drive in Bonham, Texas. It was built in 1957 as a working library and research center for Sam Rayburn , the influential United States Congressman who holds the record as the longest-serving Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. The building, designed by Roscoe DeWitt, is the most prominent example of Classical Revival architecture in Fannin County, expressly evoking the Classical architecture of Washington, DC. The library is now operated as part of the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History, part of the University of Texas at Austin.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.</p><br>
<h2>Overview</h2><br>
<p>In 1957 Rayburn dedicated the library in the style of a presidential library to preserve his memory, library collection, honors, and mementos. Former president Harry Truman was the guest of honor at the dedication ceremony. While other Speakers of the House have public or university libraries named in dedication to them this library is unique in that the library is solely dedicated to being a library about Rayburn&#39;s life as well as being an archival library about Congress from the 1770s to the present day.</p><br>
<p>The library building has a steel and concrete framework with solid brick walls and is faced with gleaming white Georgia marble and looks like many Classical-style buildings in Washington, D.C. such as the White House and the Lincoln Memorial. It is set on a base of Texas red granite.</p><br>
<p>In its original 1957 configuration the main lobby, made of black Italian marble, featured the original white marble rostrum that stood in the House of Representatives from 1857 until 1950 with a bronze statue of Rayburn standing behind it. The rostrum was moved to the main exhibit room in the 2012 renovation of the library. An exact replica of Rayburns office is in the library. The furniture in this office was actually in the Speakers Office in Washington, D.C. from 1907 to 1957. The fireplace immediately behind the speakers desk was originally installed in the House of Representatives in 1857, where it remained for ninety-two years until its removal during the USA Capitol renovation project in 1949-50. This office served as Rayburns official office from 1957 to 1961 whenever he returned home to Bonham to serve his constituents. The chandelier in Rayburn&#39;s office was originally installed in the White House during the Grant administration but was later transferred to the USA Capitol on the orders of Theodore Roosevelt who complained about the noise that the chandelier caused.</p><br>
<p>In the west wing are two galleries, the H.G. Dulaney Gallery and the Rostrum Gallery. These galleries feature items from Rayburns life, from his early childhood to his days as Speaker. The Dulaney Gallerys centerpiece is a white fireplace mantle that was installed originally in the Adams Room of the White House but removed during the White House renovation in the late 1940s. The Rostrum Gallery contains the white marble Speaker&#39;s rostrum that stood on the dais of the House of Representatives from 1857 until 1950. When the House was renovated in 1950, the rostrum was removed from the Capitol Building. It was presented to Sam Rayburn by his colleagues in the House of Representatives for permanent display in this museum.</p><br>
<p>The east wing is composed of the reading room where researchers and locals can read Rayburns personal books and access the complete run of the published proceedings of the United States Congress from the First Continental Congress of 1774 to the present. Rayburns gifts and honors are also displayed in the reading room, including a 2,500 year old Grecian urn given by the Greek Palace Guard to Rayburn for assisting the Kingdom of Greece during the Greek Civil War.</p><br>
<p>Outside of the building is a bronze statue of Rayburn that was dedicated in 1990.</p><br>
<p>The Old Military Road site near Carey, Ohio is a segment of the historic military road built in 1832 from Fort Smith, Arkansas to Fort Towson, Oklahoma. The road facilitated commerce and development in the region, particularly in the Oklahoma Territory.</p><br>
<p>The War Department and the Bureau of Indian Affairs collaborated on the development of the road, with Captain John Stuart overseeing the project. The route was laid out by frontiersman Robert Bean, who was assisted by a young Jesse Chisholm.</p><br>
<p>The J. F. Eesley Milling Co. Flour Mill–Elevator  was built as a flour mill located at 717 East Bridge Street in Plainwell, Michigan. The building has been renovated and houses a brewpub. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building which houses the flour mill at this site was originally built in about 1869 at a site on the south side of Bridge Street, purportedly to house a roller rink. The elevator was built at this site in about 1870-73 by an original owner who has not been identified. In 1891, John F. Eesley (then the operator of the nearby D. B. Merrill flour mill) partnered with three other local entrepreneurs to establish the Sunshine Flour mill at the Bridge Street site. In 1903, Eesley moved the mill building from its original site to the current site, joining it to the elevator which was already at this location. He renovated both buildings to create a single structure.</p><br>
<p>At its height, the mill produced 600 barrels of buckwheat flour per day, making it the second largest producer of buckwheat flour in the nation. Eesley operated the mill at this site until his death in 1929. Shortly after, the mill was taken over by the Plainwell Elevator Company. The Plainwell Elevator Company operated the building until at least the 1990s. The building has been renovated and houses a brewpub.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Eesley Mill and Elevator consists of two structures built separately and joined in 1903. The entire structure is a three-story building with a broad fronted and a massive timber frame. The mill section has a gable roof, the elevator part a gambrel roof. An addition that has a slightly sloping roofline connects the two portions of the structure. The exterior is covered with clapboard siding, and has double-hung, square-head, sash windows. A cinder block loading platform sheltered with an overhang runs the length of the building on one side. There is a single-story extension at the back of the elevator building.</p><br>
<p>140 and 144 Retreat Avenue is a historic conjoined pair of houses in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1844 and 1851, the two houses are the only surviving reminders of the street&#39;s 19th-century streetscape. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Retreat Avenue is a historically old road, connecting Hartford and Farmington in the 17th century. Its name derives from a facility for treatment of the insane that opened in the 1820s, that now operates as The Institute of Living, just southwest of numbers 140 and 144 on the south side of the road. The institute is now part of Hartford Hospital, whose main campus stands across the street. The pair of Greek Revival houses present a marked contrast to this institutional setting. They occupy adjacent lots just east of the junction of Retreat Avenue and Essex Street. Both houses are stories in height, and of wood-frame construction finished in clapboards. Number 140 is the more easterly of the two: it has a hip roof, and its main entrance is sheltered by a flat-roof portico with fluted Doric columns. A two-story ell extends to its rear. Number 144 stands at the street corner, and has a gabled roof with an oblong multipane window in the gable pediment. The main entrance is on the four-bay side facing Essex Street, in the center-right bay, and lacks adornment. The two buildings are joined by a single-story wood-frame hyphen near the rear of the main blocks.</p><br>
<p>144 Retreat Avenue was built in 1845 on land owned by Joseph Barnes, and was apparently built by members of the Camp family, local builders and joiners. 140 Retreat Avenue was built sometime between 1851 and 1856, when it was owned by Bogardus Beardslee, a clothier who worked downtown. Although both of the adjacent medical institutions existed at the time, the blocks of Retreat Avenue and Essex Avenue were basically residential until after World War II, when expansion pressures from the hospitals resulted in the demolition of most of the housing there for commercial hospital-related uses.</p><br>
<p>The Hyde-St. John House is a historic house at 25 Charter Oak Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1858, it is one of the city&#39;s least-altered examples of Italianate architecture, and it was home to prominent local attorney and city mayor William Waldo Hyde. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977, and is presently in commercial use.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Hyde-St. John House is located in Hartford&#39;s Sheldon-Charter Oak neighborhood, on the south side of Charter Oak Avenue, between the former Temple Beth Israel (now the Charter Oak Cultural Center), and the location of the historic Charter Oak tree. It is a three-story brick structure, basically square in shape, with a flat roof that has a prominent projecting eave supported by brackets placed on either side of the three window bays. Windows on the first two floors are set in rectangular openings with brownstone sills and lintels, while the shorter third-floor windows have rounded tops. A single-story porch extends across the front, with rounded projections in the side bays, and clustered columns mounted on moulded blocks for support. The main entrance is flanked by pilasters and sidelight windows, and toppedy by a decorative rounded fanlight; there are carved wooden oak leaves in the spandrels above the fanlight. The interior features relatively unaltered original woodwork and plaster. A period two-story ell extends to the rear of the main block.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1858. It was home to William Waldo Hyde from 1881 to 1896. Hyde was from a prominent local family, and was a principal in one of the city&#39;s oldest law firms. From 1892 to 1894 he served as Mayor of Hartford. The Waldo and Hyde families also owned other adjacent properties during this time, essentially creating a small family compound. The building underwent restoration in the 1970s, and now houses a commercial business.</p><br>
<p>The Cherry DeLefebvre House is a private house located at 115 West Chart Street in Plainwell, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Cherry Delefebvre was born in Paris in 1835, and graduated from the École Polytechnique in 1856. He emigrated to the United States in 1859, taught French in New York City and later fought in the Civil War. After the war, he moved to Chicago and worked in the hotel business, eventually buying his own hotel. In 1873, he married Hannah Crispe, the sister of successful Plainwell businessman and politician John Crispe. Delefebvre sold his hotel in 1891, and he and his wife went on an extended voyage. The couple settled in Plainwell in 1893, and constructed this house the same year.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Cherry DeLefebvre House is a two-story frame structure with a stone foundation and a gable-roof main section and a gabled rear wing. The front gable has a small circular-shaped window below the vergeboard, and is clad with patterned shingling. The main body of the house is clad with clapboard, with a narrow apron of shingling below the second story. A front porch is recessed into one end, and features lathe-turned columns and turned spindles. The windows are double-hung.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the house features the original wood parquet floors in the living room and dining room, as well as original wood doors, molding, door surroundings, and stairway.</p><br>
<p>The Sons of Jacob Cemetery in rural Ramsey County, North Dakota was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. It was the cemetery of the Garske Colony, a farming community of Jewish immigrant homesteaders which was founded in 1883 and operated until about 1925.</p><br>
<p>Jewish homesteaders came from Russia, where they were not allowed to own land, and tried to survive in harsh conditions in North Dakota. Many built sod houses or tarpaper shacks to live in while attempting to prove their land claims for 160 acre under the Homestead Act.</p><br>
<p>There once were nine rural Jewish cemeteries in North Dakota. The cemetery of the largest Jewish farming community in the state, the Ashley Jewish Homesteaders Cemetery, was listed on the National Register in May 2015. The Garske one, the Ashley one, and one in Regan are the only three that are "not entirely overgrown" by 2017.</p><br>
<p>The St. Olaf Lutheran Church in Devils Lake, North Dakota was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in March 2015.</p><br>
<p>It was designed by Devils Lake architect Joseph A. Shannon in Late Gothic Style and was built in 1930.</p><br>
<p>The St. Olaf Congregation was organized in 1885, and another congregation merged in 1887. A wood-frame church was built by 1888 at Sixth St. and Sixth Ave. in Devils Lake. In 1929 the lot diagonally across was purchased for a new, larger church, and despite the onset of the Great Depression the present church was built during 1930. An education unit was added in the 1950s and there was another addition in 1987.</p><br>
<p>The St. Michaels Parochial School at 504 N. 5th Ave. in Grand Forks, North Dakota, USA, also known as St. Michaels School, is a school complex which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.</p><br>
<p>Its original building was designed by Grand Forks architect William J. Edwards and was built in 1916 by the Dinnie Brothers contractors. Two additions to the complex in 1949 and 1953 were designed by South Dakota architect Ursa L. Freed.</p><br>
<p>William J. Edwards also designed the Washington School in Grand Forks, which is also NRHP-listed.</p><br>

Harrison operated it as a boarding house from 1942 to her death in 1957, then it was operated by her sister until 1960. It is notable for having served African-American entertainers in Las Vegas, as well as other African-Americans.</p><br>
<p>The Island Historic District is a mixed commercial and residential historic district located in Plainwell, Michigan. It is roughly bounded by Bannister Street to the north, Hill Street to the south, the Kalamazoo River to the east, and Park Street to the west, as well as including properties along Main Street south of the mill race and along Bridge Street west to the mill race. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Plainwell was first settled in the 1830s, and the first frame house built in what is now the Island Historic District was constructed in 1846. In the early 1850s, two plank toll roads were built through the area along what are now Main and Allegan Streets, leading to an increase in development around "The Junction" between the two. In 1856, the Plainwell Water Power Company was formed, and the company dug a mill race across a bend in the Kalamazoo River, creating the island which encompasses this district. In 1857, a saw mill was constructed at the outlet of the race, and soon a rake factory, grist mill, and paper mill were all established along the race, using the water power available.</p><br>
<p>The settlement of Plainwell was platted in 1863 by Ira Chichester, a prominent Allegan businessman, and was incorporated as a village in 1869. By 1873, the central business district of the village had expanded to encompass much of the space it does now, extending along Bridge and Main Streets a block in each direction from The Junction. These buildings were primarily two-story frame structures, but a smattering of brick buildings were already extant in the district; these include the three-story block at the corner of Main and Bridge which dates from at least 1866, and the 1867 Ives Block at 1120 N. Main.</p><br>
<p>Plainwell grew rapidly in the 1870s and 80s. As the 1890s arrived, many of the older frame commercial buildings gave way to newer brick buildings. Most of the business districts was rebuilt in the 1890s and early 1900s.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Island Historic District contains the historic central business district of the city, primarily located along Main Street, and the adjacent historic</p><br>
<p>residential areas. The district contains 35 commercial buildings, 137 residences; 139 of the 172 buildings contribute to the historic character of the district. Most of the commercial buildings are one- and two-story brick structures dating from the late 1800s and early 1900s. However, a few earlier commercial buildings of frame construction exist in the district, and two of the buildings are three stories in height.</p><br>
<p>The grandest residences in the district, and in the village as a whole, are located along East and West Bridge Streets and South Main Street. These include outstanding examples of Eastlake, Italianate, and Queen Anne architecture. The houses in the district east of Main Street and south of Bridge Street are generally more modest, but also display a range of architectural styles.</p><br>
<p>The Imlay and Laurel Streets District is a residential historic district on portions of Imlay, Laurel, Hawthorn and Sigourney Streets in Hartford, Connecticut. The area is a densely built residential neighborhood developed between about 1870 and 1895, with predominantly brick Italianate and Queen Anne construction. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Imlay and Laurel Streets in the early 19th century part of the Imlay Farm, which was developed beginning in 1853 as a residential area. The best-known portion of Imlay Farm is the Nook Farm, which became home to the citys business and cultural elites. Imlay and Laurel Streets are located between Nook Farm and the American Asylum for the Deaf, which gave Hartfords Asylum Hill neighborhood its name. They were developed as a more dense middle-class residential area, in part to provide housing for workers at the asylum. The streets were laid out in 1869, and experienced rapid development between 1880 and 1896, by which time 83 buildings had been erected. Later redevelopment has resulted in the destruction of most of these, and now fewer than 30 remain.</p><br>
<p>The historic district is bordered on the west by properties on the west side of Imlay Street, and on the east by a few properties on the west side of Sigourney Street. Its northern boundary is marked by transitions away from historic buildings on Imlay, Laurel, and Sigourney Streets, and its southern boundary includes two houses on Hawthorn Street. Most of the buildings in this area are one and two-family residences, two stories in height, and are built at least partly out of brick. There are two examples of Italianate architecture on Imlay Street, which were probably built in the 1850s, not long after development began in the area. Most of the houses have Queen Anne features, including asymmetrical facades, decorative brickwork, and porches with turned posts and other period woodwork details.</p><br>
<p>The Douglass-Frey Ranch in Churchill County, Nevada was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.</p><br>
<p>The main feature of the property is the Douglass Mansion, built during 1918–1920, which is a rare Prairie School work by architect Frederick J. DeLongchamps.</p><br>
<p>A bunk house built in 1916 is also included. It is a two-story, stucco house with a low-pitch hipped roof.</p><br>
<p>Barns and sheds from c.1920 are also included, as well as a pavilion built in 1995.</p><br>
<p>The Isham-Terry House is a historic house museum at 211 High Street in Hartford, Connecticut. Built around 1854, from 1896 it was home to members of the Isham family, who restored it in the early 20th century. The family donated the property to Connecticut Landmarks in the 1970s, which now operates it has a museum, offering guided tours and facility event rentals. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Isham-Terry House occupies a prominent and highly visible location just north of Interstate 84 outside downtown Hartford, at the northwest corner of High and Walnut Streets, and adjacent to the city&#39;s police department headquarters. It is a roughly cubical painted brick structure, two stories in height, with a low-pitch roof. A three-story tower projecting from its southwest corner adds visual prominence. The roof eaves are deep, with decorative Italianate brackets for support. Windows are on the two main floors are set in rectangular openings, with narrow oblong windows in the attic level of the main block. On the street-facing facades, the second-floor windows are topped by gabled or segmented-arch pediments with brackets on either side. The first floor of the facade facing Walnut Street is sheltered by a porch supported by slender clustered columns, with round-arch openings that have carved woodwork in the spandrels, and a low spindled balustrade. A similar porch shelters the main entrance facing High Street, and balconies on the tower share similar features. The building interior is well preserved, with lincrusta wall covering, ornate woodwork, and glass chandeliers.</p><br>
<p>The house was built sometime between the 1852 purchase of land by Ebenezer Roberts, and his listing as the buildings first occupant in 1856. Roberts was a directory of the Hartford National Bank, Travelers Insurance Company, and other local businesses. Construction of this house contributed to the development of Asylum Hill as a desirable and fashionable neighborhood for the citys elites, although urban renewal has resulted in demolition of nearly all of the other similar houses that once lined High Street. The house was purchased in 1896 by Dr. Oliver Isham, a descendant of the locally prominent Isham and Terry families. He lived here and operated a medical practice. In the 1970s his surviving descendants gave the property to Connecticut Landmarks for preservation.</p><br>
<p>The Newlands Historic District in Reno, Nevada is a historic district on the bluffs south of the Truckee River which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.</p><br>
<p>It is a residential district bounded by the Truckee River on the north, Arlington Avenue on the east, Monroe Street on the south and Keystone Avenue, California Avenue and Sharon Way on the west.</p><br>
<p>According to the Nevada State Historic Preservation Office:The Newlands Historic District was also recognized for its importance to Reno’s historic architecture, possessing a stylistic diversity and level of design quality rare in northwest Nevada. Many of the region’s best known architects of the early twentieth century completed some of their most significant residential commissions in Nevada in the Newlands neighborhood, creating several of Reno’s most outstanding examples of Period Revival and Craftsman homes. The Newlands neighborhood includes a broad but carefully selected mix of residential architecture planned by the community’s developers under the umbrella of the Newlands Company, who intended the buildings to blend with the neighborhood’s broader City Beautiful aesthetic. The landscape and architecture of the Newlands neighborhood defined the architectural and landscape development of future neighborhoods in the city and remains among the best preserved early-twentieth century residential areas in Reno.</p><br>
<p>The Bryant Building is a historic retail building located in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. The building, designed by the prominent local architectural firm of Christian, Schwarzenburg and Gaede, was constructed by Mall Motor Co. as their new salesroom and service center, and was completed in 1921. The structure was purchased by Bryant Motor Co. in 1922.</p><br>
<p>The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on December 11, 2014.</p><br>
<h2>Construction of the building</h2><br>
<p>The Mall Motor Co. was an automobile dealership located in Cleveland, Ohio. In the fall of 1920, Mall Motor Co. purchased a long on the north side of Superior Avenue between E. 12th and E. 13th Streets. Located at what is now 1261 Superior Avenue, the lot had a frontage of 120 ft on Superior Avenue, and extended 160 ft into the heart of the block. By December, Mall Motor Co. had hired the locally prominent architectural firm of Christian, Schwarzenburg and Gaede to design a $250,000 ($ in dollars) structure consisting of a basement and two above-ground stories. Construction would include a brick foundation, steel frame, reinforced concrete walls and floors, and brick interior walls. The structure would also have steam heat.</p><br>
<p>The $250,000 ($ in dollars) contract for the building was let in April 1921. The building rose swiftly, and was completed by the end of April 1921.</p><br>
<p>The finished building extended from Superior Avenue to Rockwell Avenue. A mezzanine with offices overlooked the sales room. The sales area also featured restrooms specifically set aside for female patrons. Behind the salesroom was a 46,000 ft&sup2; service area and garage. This area featured a lounge and showers for employee use.</p><br>
<p>Mall Motor Co. formally opened the structure on July 24, 1921.</p><br>
<h2>History of the building</h2><br>
<p>Mall Motor Co. sold the building to the Bryant Motor Co. in September 1922.</p><br>
<p>At some point in the 20th century, 17,700 ft&sup2; of garage at the rear of the building was demolished.</p><br>
<p>Cuyahoga County purchased the building some time before 1990, and used as the headquarters of the county title agency.</p><br>
<p>Cuyahoga County began attempting to sell the 32,000 ft&sup2; building to a private owner about 2012. The structure finally sold for an undisclosed sum in 2016 to Masthead Brewing, a brew pub. The new owner renovated 16,000 ft&sup2; of the front of the building into restaurant space, removing the dropped ceiling to expose the original ceiling height and adding seating for 250 customers. A sidewalk cafe was added to the Superior Avenue side of the building. The renovation retained the garage doors, which (when raised) allowed the interior to be open to the street during warm weather. Masthead Brewing opened in January 2017.</p><br>
<p>The Shelby Town Hall in Shelby, Montana is a former town hall building which was built in 1923. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006. It is used by the Shelby Chamber of Commerce and as a Visitor Information Center.</p><br>
<p>The building was built in just two months in 1923, with expectation it would be the media headquarters for coverage of the 4th of July "World Heavyweight Championship Fight" between Jack Dempsey and Tommy Gibbons.</p><br>
<p>Kevin station, in Kevin, Montana, was built by the Great Northern Railroad in Kevin, Montana in 1903. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 as the Kevin Depot.</p><br>
<p>It was deemed to be "architecturally significant because it is typical of small town stations of turn-of-the-century Montana. The Great Northern Railroad created the Kevin site for steam locomotives to take on water half-way on their journey from the high-line to the Canadian border. Rainwater was collected in a pit behind the station. These small stations have all but disappeared; Kevin is one of the few left."</p><br>
<p>It is a 24 x structure with a square bay on one side and an addition built in 1925. It was moved two blocks from its railroad right-of-way location in 1979, with intention that the moved building would be used as a senior citizens center.</p><br>

<p>The Warner P. Sutton House, also known as The Beeches or Beechwood Manor, is a private house located at 736 Pleasant Street in Saugatuck, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. It now operates as the Beechwood Manor Inn Bed & Breakfast.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Warner P. Sutton House was constructed in 1874 by Roland Barnard. It is named after Warner P. Sutton, who served as a United States diplomat in Mexico and an attorney specializing in the field of international law.</p><br>
<p>Warner Perrin Sutton was born on October 16, 1849, the son of Luther Sutton and Priscilla Jane Bancroft. Warner Sutton began his career as a school teacher and journalist, and married Lois Andrus in 1874. The Suttons moved to Saugatuck in 1875, where Warner Sutton assumed the position of principal of the union school. In 1877, Sutton purchased this house for his family.</p><br>
<p>In 1878, Sutton was appointed USA Commercial Agent at Matamoros, Mexico upon the recommendation of his friend Senator Thomas W. Ferry. In 1883 he was appointed consul general for northern Mexico, and in 1889 was transferred to Nuevo Laredo, where he served until 1893. From 1893 to 1900 he operated an international law practice in Washington DC. In 1900, he had a stroke which left him an invalid until his death in 1913.</p><br>
<p>Sutton continued to own this home until his death, naming it "The Beeches." His family used it as a summer home during the years they lived in Mexico and in Washington DC. Several alterations were made to the house around 1900, including the installation of the front porch.</p><br>
<p>In 1986, the house was saved from demolition and had an addition constructed, as well as other renovation. In 1990 it opened as the Beechwood Manor Inn Bed & Breakfast.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Warner P. Sutton house is a two-story wood frame cross-gabled L-plan dwelling. It stands on a concrete block foundation and is clad with clapboards. A Tuscan-column, wraparound veranda runs across the front of the house. Windows are double-hung one-over-one units in plain wooden frames; the front door has a hood and transom. A 1986 single-story addition extends to the rear.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the main floor contains the foyer, two parlors, a sitting room, and a dining room in the original section of the house. The 1986 addition contains a kitchen, laundry room, bathroom, and recreation room. The second story contains four bedrooms and two bathrooms.</p><br>
<p>The James Pratt Funeral Service was a historic house at 69 Farmington Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1860, it was one of the few surviving mid-19th-century houses on a once-residential stretch of that street. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. and the property is now part of the Aetna campus.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>69 Farmington Avenue was located on the south side of Farmington Avenue, between Flower Street and the main building of Aetna&#39;s corporate campus, an area now occupied by parking lots that are part of that campus. The house was two stories in height, built of brick and covered by a flat roof with an extended eave in the Italianate style. Second-floor windows were framed by Italianate hoods with drip moulding brackets supporting gabled pediments, an echo of decorations that probably also originally adorned other windows. A modern single-story porch extended across the front facade, sheltering ground-floor windows that were elongated in the Greek Revival style.</p><br>
<p>The house was built about 1860, and was at the time of its listing on the National Register one of only two houses to survive from that period on Farmington Avenue, which was at one time lined by many such houses. The building was converted to non-residential uses as the area became increasingly commercial. It was subsequently demolished as part of an expansion of the Aetna campus.</p><br>
<p>Main Building is the central administration building of St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas, and formerly also of St. Edwards High School . First completed in 1888 and rebuilt after a fire in 1903, Main Building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1973, along with adjacent Holy Cross Hall.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>St. Edward&#39;s University was founded in 1877 by Edward Sorin, a Roman Catholic priest who also founded the University of Notre Dame. The school was established on farmland atop a promontory to the south of Austin. As the institution grew in the early 1880s, its leaders decided to commission an administration building on that hilltop, hiring architect Nicholas J. Clayton of Galveston, Texas to design the structure.</p><br>
<p>Clayton produced a large Gothic Revival design, four stories high with tall Gothic windows; this first Main Building was begun in 1887 and completed in 1888. On April 9, 1903, the first building was destroyed in a fire; the university then commissioned Clayton, the original architect, to design a replacement for the structure, on essentially the same plan, upgraded to include modern fireproofing features. Main Building was rebuilt over the spring and summer, ready for use by the beginning of the fall 1903 semester. At the same time, another new building, Holy Cross Hall, was built alongside the new Main Building, sharing its overall design on a smaller scale.</p><br>
<p>Since its first opening, Main Building has housed the administrative offices of St. Edwards College (as the school was known in its first decades) and St. Edwards University (since the university was charted in 1925); it also formerly held the administration of St. Edward&#39;s High School from 1921, when the secondary school was separated from the college, until 1967, when the high school was closed. During World War II the facility housed a military academy and flight school. Holy Cross Hall has been used as a dormitory and has held classrooms, offices and meeting space.</p><br>
<h3>Repairs and renovations</h3><br>
<p>In 1922 a tornado struck the campus, tearing a hole through the south face of Main Building that required extensive repairs. The building underwent substantial renovations in 1986 to bring it into compliance with modern building codes and reinforce the exterior walls. Repairs to the exterior stonework, roofing and windows were undertaken in 2014, along with the restoration of the bell tower&#39;s original bell. Another round of exterior restorations and interior renovations began in 2016, while similar work was underway at Holy Cross Hall.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Main Building is a roughly rectangular four-story hall, clad with local white limestone on its northern facade, with a central bell tower projecting several stories higher from the rear. The building is divided into three sections: two taller and bulkier wings on the east and west, and a more narrow central segment joining them, totaling a 12,300 ft2 footprint. Main Building exemplifies the Collegiate Gothic architecture that was popular among educational institutions in late-nineteenth-century America, with its protruding one-story church porch, tall lancet windows with hood molding, and turreted buttresses.</p><br>
<h3>Main facade</h3><br>
<p>The main entry is in the center of the north facade, where a flared staircase leads up to the porch and red double doors framed by a Gothic arch with hood mold and pointed gable. Above the entrance the facade is marked by a central bay, which projects slightly forward and frames three columns of windows with another hood mold and gable, matching those on the facing of the porch. Each level of the central segment has its own style of windows: the first floor has trios of pointed-arch windows with hood molding, while the second has trios of simple rectangles, and the third has a series of small lancet windows with hood molds. A line of dentils follows the roofline, including under the high gable of the central bay.</p><br>
<p>The east and west wings of the building project forward relative to the central portion, and their steeply pitched rooflines extend upward another story above the center. The north face of each wing is divided into three vertical bays by four buttresses, two on the face of the structure and two at the corners; the corner buttresses extend above the roofline to form cylindrical turrets topped with conical spires. Each bay on the wings duplicates the pattern of windows from the central facade, but the wings&#39; central bays and gables extend higher than the corresponding bay above the main entrance.</p><br>
<h3>Other features</h3><br>
<p>The central tower rises from the rear of the building, its lower levels protruding from the south face. The first four stories of the tower are round and embedded in the building, supported by two heavy limestone buttresses. Near the roofline, a ring of blind arches forms a transition to a freestanding octagonal upper section; only this upper portion is visible from the front of the building. The walls of the upper section are pierced by an octagonal open arcade of Gothic arches, topped with an encircling corbelled cornice. Above the cornice, the roof forms a steep octagonal pyramid, pierced by four small gabled windows, and topped by a cross-shaped finial.</p><br>
<p>The sides and rear of the building are faced with brick rather than limestone, excepting the lower portion of the tower and its buttresses. The windows and gables on the other faces are similar but simplified versions of those found on the main facade.</p><br>
<h3>Holy Cross Hall</h3><br>
<p>Built adjacent to Main Building while that structure was reconstructed after the 1903 fire, Holy Cross Hall shares a simplified version of its larger neighbors architectural design. The smaller hall shares the same overall center-and-wings floorplan, but on a considerably smaller footprint and only three stories high. The entire exterior is faced with the same bricks used on the sides and rear of Main Building, and it lacks the larger structures high gabled bays, except above the main entrance on the north side. In place of Main Building&#39;s bell tower, Holy Cross Hall has a modest one-story turret.</p><br>
<p>The Jefferson-Seymour District is a historic district encompassing a residential area on the south side of Hartford, Connecticut. Covering portions of Cedar, Wadsworth, Seymour and Jefferson Streets, it contains a well-preserved collection of late 19th and early 20th-century middle-class residential architecture, primarily executed in brick. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The area south of downtown Hartford between Washington and Main Streets was developed as a residential area beginning in the mid-19th century. It was bounded by estates on Washington Street that extended east to Cedar Street, and the south by the institutional campuses of the Hartford Hospital and Hartford Orphan Asylum, both established in the 1860s. This area became an enclave of middle-class residential housing, with densely built one and two-family houses, housing people who worked either in downtown, at one of the two institutions, or a short way east at the Colt Armory. In the early 20th century, some of the area was redeveloped to include a number of apartment blocks. The area is now hemmed in by encroaching state and municipal offices to the north and west, and the growing medical institutions to the south.</p><br>
<p>The historic district is bounded on the south by Jefferson Street, and extends north along Seymour Street to Park Street. Including two short blocks of Park Street, it then extends further north along back-to-back sides of Cedar and Wadsworth Streets nearly to Buckingham Street. Most of the residences in this area are built out of brick, and are two stories in height. Early construction exhibits a combination of Italianate and Greek Revival elements, with later buildings in modestly decorated versions of the Second Empire and Queen Anne. The later apartment blocks are typically in the Colonial Revival style, which is also reflected in a few single-family houses built in the 1920s.</p><br>
<p>The Rainbow Conoco at 400 Main St. in Shelby, Montana, also known as Joe&#39;s, was built in 1936. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.</p><br>
<p>It was a gas and car repair station designed by Continental Oil Co. architects as an "English cottage-type station". The design included a steeply pitched gable roof with dark green asphalt shingles, contrasting to the off-white glazed brick exterior. It was built in 1936 and expanded in the same style, to add a second service bay, in 1941. A 29 x flat roof expansion which does not match was added in 1975 when Joe Kincaid took over operation. Twenty-eight years later in 1993, Kincaid still operated the station.</p><br>
<p>It was deemed significant as "one of finest examples of 1930s era gas station design in Montana" and as "the best original domestic, English cottage design remaining in the State. The styling reflected the desire to avoid conflict with nearby residential environments and blend effectively with adjacent commercial structures. The beautifully maintained glazed brick exterior is accentuated with natural brick trim around windows and doors in the classic 1930s style. The high-pitched gable roof and distinctive white and green color scheme made the station a familiar and recognizable landmark."</p><br>
<p>The Wilfred X. Johnson House is a historic house at 206 Tower Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1928, it was the home from 1966 until his death the home of Wilfred X. Johnson , the state&#39;s first African-American state representative. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Wilfred X. Johnson House is located on Hartfords north side, on the north side of Tower Avenue between Barbour and Hampton Streets. The propertys rear abuts the city&#39;s Keney Park. The house is stories in height, built out of brick with wooden trim. It is covered by a hip roof that is pierced on the front by a shed-roof dormer. Single-story wings extend to either side of the main block. The front facade is three bays wide, with a center entrance sheltered by a gabled porch with cove ceiling. The entrance is flanked by pilasters that match the posts supporting the porch. The bays on either side of the entrance have tripled sash windows, while the upper floor bays have a 2-1-2 pattern of window grouping. The flanking wings each have tripled sash windows. Some of the windows retain their original diamond-pane sashes. The interior of the house follows a center hall plan.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1928, and is a fairly typical example of Colonial Revival architecture built at that time. In 1966 it was purchased by Wilfred and Gertrude Johnson.</p><br>
<h2>Wilfred Johnson</h2><br>
<p>Wilfred X. Johnson, a native of Georgia, came to Hartford as a child with his parents, and was locally educated. He took a position as a messenger boy at the Hartford National Bank, rising to become the states first African-American bank teller in 1955. He was active in the local Democratic Party, and won election to the state legislature in 1958, the first African-American to do so. Gertrude Johnson was also active the party, working to achieve racial balance in the citys schools.</p><br>
<p>Keney Tower is a memorial tower located in a small public park at Main and Ely Streets north of downtown Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1898 as a memorial to family members by the locally prominent Keney family, it is a distinctive local example of Collegiate Gothic architecture, and is the city&#39;s only free-standing tower. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Keney Tower is located on the northern fringe of downtown Hartford, from which it is now separated by Interstate 84. It is located in a park 1.5 acre in size at the southeast corner of Main and Ely Streets, in an area dominated by traffic and commercial development. The tower stands near the center of the roughly square park. Its base is 30 ft square, and it rises to a height of 130 ft. It is built out of ashlar-cut red sandstone quarried in Longmeadow, Massachusetts. Its verticality is heightened by corner buttresses, and pinnacles that rise above its roof to finial crosses. There are clock faces on all four sides, above which are lancet-arched louvers around the chamber housing chiming bells that sound every quarter hour.</p><br>
<p>The tower was built in 1898 on land that belonged at the time to the locally prominent Keney family. Its construction was done by the family under the terms of the will of Henry Keney, who sought to memorialize his wholesale grocery business, H. & W. Keney. The family, however, instead placed a plaque on the tower reading "This tower erected to the memory of my mother is designed to preserve from other occupancy the ground sacred to me as her home and to stand in perpetual honor to the wisdom, goodness and womanly nobility of her to whose guidance I owe my success in life and its chief joy ~ Henry Keney". The tower was designed by New York City architect Charles C. Haight, whose specialty was Collegiate Gothic architecture. The family trust deeded the tower and park to the city in 1924.</p><br>
<p>The James Noble Sherwood House is a private house located at 768 Riverview Drive in Plainwell, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1831, Hull Sherwood, originally from Brighton, New York moved to this area and purchased land along the Kalamazoo River, where he established a grist and sawmill. Lebbeus Sherwood, one of Hull&#39;s sons, also arrived in the area in 1831 with his family, and two years later he purchased this plot of land along the Kalamazoo River, where he constructed a frame house. With Lebbeus was his son, James Noble Sherwood, who was born in 1820. Lebbeus died of pneumonia in 1835 and the land passed to James.</p><br>
<p>James Noble Sherwood constructed this house in 1863-64, using local laborers. When James died in 1903, he passed the house and property to his own son, Edward Jay Sherwood. Upon Edward&#39;s death in 1934, the house was passed to his son Marion Sherwood. The house was sold by the Sherwood family in 1964.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The James Noble Sherwood House is a two-story brick Greek Revival house built in a gabled Upright and Wing form, with a single-story kitchen addition in the rear. A wide entablature extends around the house, with cornice returns at the gable ends. A wooden shed roof entrance porch runs along the front of the wing section, sheltering three six-over-six windows and a door. The gable end of the upright section has two six-over-six windows in each story, set in segmental-arch-head opening. Similar windows are set in the sides of the house.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the first story contains a large parlor, a kitchen, dining room, and two small rooms which were likely originally bedrooms. A former pantry is now a bathroom. The second floor contains three bedrooms. The upper portion of the wing was originally a single room; it has been remodeled into a bedroom, bathroom, and storage space. The house contains The original white pine flooring throughout.</p><br>
