<p>The Building at 257 East Delaware is a historic apartment building located at 257 East Delaware Place in the Near North Side neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. The building was built in 1917 during a wave of luxury apartment construction on the Near North Side. Architect John Nyden designed the Renaissance Revival building, which was one of Chicago&#39;s first luxury apartments designed in the style. Like most skyscrapers of the area, the ten-story building is split into three parts visually; the upper two and lower two floors are faced with terra cotta and are connected by a brick shaft. The building is topped with a cornice and balustrade. Terra cotta lintels and decorations add an Adamesque influence to the building.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 26, 1987.</p><br>
<p>The A. M. Rothschild & Company Store, also known as the Goldblatt&#39;s Building, is a historic department store building located at 333 South State Street in the Loop neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois.</p><br>
<p>The store was built in 1912 for the Rothschild & Company department store, which was founded in the late 1800s by Abram M. Rothschild. Prominent Chicago School architects Holabird & Roche designed the store; while the firm had also designed the companys previous, smaller store, the 1912 building was their first and only full-block department store design. The buildings skeletal frame and large windows are typical of Chicago School buildings, while its extensive terra cotta ornamentation reflects the then-popular Beaux-Arts style. Rothschild & Company occupied the building until 1923, when Marshall Field & Company purchased it; it was sold again in 1936 to Goldblatt&#39;s, who ran their flagship store in the building until 1981.</p><br>
<p>As of 2022, the building is owned by DePaul University and is primarily used for classrooms, though the building also contains the university&#39;s downtown library, cafeteria, and student union. A Barnes & Noble store uses most of the first-level retail space.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 27, 1989.</p><br>
<p>Hotel St. Benedict Flats is a historic apartment building located at the northeast corner of Chicago Avenue and Wabash Avenue in the Near North Side neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. Built in 1882, the building was one of the "French flat" luxury apartments constructed after the Great Chicago Fire; named for their resemblance to Parisian apartments, these new buildings brought apartment living to Chicagos upper class. Architect James J. Egan, an Irish Catholic better known for his church designs, designed the Victorian Gothic building. The buildings decorative features, such as its lintels, art glass windows, and use of pressed metal, were common features of contemporary upper-class homes, while its mansard roofs evoked French architecture. Egan named the building for the property&#39;s previous owners, the Order of Saint Benedict; the "Hotel" portion of the name was added to exploit a legal loophole, as the building never served as a hotel.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 1, 1995.</p><br>
<p>Wooden Alley is a historic wood block paved alley connecting Astor Street and State Street in the Near North Side neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. The alley is 530 ft long and composed of wooden blocks roughly 6 to 10 in long and 4 in wide. This wood block technique is a derivative of Nicholson paving, a more durable method of wooden paving which replaced plank paving in many USA cities in the nineteenth century. First paved in 1909, the alley is one of only two wooden alleys remaining in Chicago. Wooden paving was common in the late nineteenth century in Chicago, as the city&#39;s large lumber market made wood much cheaper than other paving materials. By 1909, however, a decline in the lumber market combined with the increased durability of other paving materials had caused the city to turn away from wooden paving, making the alley an unusually late example of the method.</p><br>
<p>The alley was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 22, 2002.</p><br>
<p>The Warren-Crowell House is a historic house in Terrell, Texas, USA. It was designed in the Prairie School style with a Colonial Revival porch by architect James E. Flanders, and completed in 1903. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since May 23, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The house was purchased in January 2023 by a couple who love old houses. The Mansion had fallen on hard times, this grand home was in need of restoration. An eleven-month extensive restoration project was completed in December 2023. The property is once again a credit to the Historical homes of Terrel, Texas and the state.</p><br>
<p>Texas Hall is a historic building on the former campus of Trinity University in Tehuacana, Texas, USA. The land was donated by John Boyd. It was first designed in the Gothic Revival style by Joseph Schuster, and completed in 1871. It was subsequently redesigned by architect James E. Flanders in the Second Empire style between 1886 and 1892. Trinity University relocated to Waxahachie, Texas in 1902, and Westminster College moved into the building, up until 1942. The building is now known as the Trinity Institute.</p><br>
<p>The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 12, 1978.</p><br>
<p>Hofmann Apiaries is a historic former apiary in Janesville, Minnesota, United States. It was established in 1907 as owner Emil Hofmann began developing beekeeping facilities on his existing farm. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016 for its state-level significance in the theme of agriculture. The listing consists of 10 contributing properties, including the 1884 farmhouse and nine beekeeping facilities built 1907–1933. Hofmann Apiaries was nominated for achieving regional and national prominence in beekeeping for its innovative and influential practices.</p><br>
<p>The Maxwell-Briscoe Automobile Company Showroom is a historic automobile showroom located at 1737 S. Michigan Avenue in Chicagos Motor Row District. The showroom was built in 1909 for the Maxwell-Briscoe Motor Company, which was founded in 1904 by Jonathan D. Maxwell and Benjamin Briscoe. William Ernest Walker, a Chicago architect who specialized in large-scale commercial buildings, designed the showroom. The four-story building is divided by brick piers; the ground floor features large plate-glass windows designed to showcase the companys automobiles, while the upper floors feature banks of double-hung and triple-hung windows between the piers. The building uses terra cotta extensively for decoration; a terra cotta stringcourse encircles the building above the first floor, terra cotta pediments and sills frame the window banks, and a terra cotta frieze runs below the roof line. Maxwell and Briscoe used the building as a showroom until 1915; it is one of the oldest surviving auto showrooms on Motor Row.</p><br>
<p>The showroom was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 18, 2002.</p><br>
<p>The Third Presbyterian Church was a historic Presbyterian Church founded in 1872 in Chester, Pennsylvania. It was located at 9th and Potter Streets. The church was the location of the first summer bible school in 1912. The congregation closed in 1986 and was thereafter owned by the Chester Historical Preservation Committee. It was a stone Gothic Revival building designed by the noted Philadelphia architect Isaac Pursell. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in November 2019 but severely damaged by a five-alarm fire on May 28, 2020.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Third Presbyterian Church was built as a memorial to commemorate the reunion of the Old and New School Churches. It was originally located on the southwest corner of Twelfth and Upland Streets. The lot was purchased in 1871 and a brick building was erected as a mission Sunday school of the now defunct First Presbyterian Church. A division in the congregation occurred and 42 members broke off from the First Presbyterian Church and formed the Third Presbyterian Church on October 16, 1872. In July 1873, the western end of the church was removed, twenty-five feet added in length and a recess pulpit added.</p><br>
<p>Dr. Abraham L. Latham, the minister of the Third Presbyterian Church, was concerned about declining church enrollment numbers and the lethargy of the congregation. He designed the first bible summer school with a five-week program for four hours each day for young people on summer vacation. The first school opened in 1912. At its peak, approximately 650 to 700 students participated in the summer bible school.</p><br>
<p>Mel Trotter, the American fundamentalism leader, held a two-week church campaign at the Third Presbyterian Church in the 1920s which resulted in 400 conversions.</p><br>
<p>The congregation peaked in the middle of the 20th century but began to decline as Chester experienced economic and demographic shifts in the 1970s and 1980s. The Third Presbyterian Church was unable to survive this difficult period and closed their doors in 1986.</p><br>
<p>The Chester Eastside Ministries, a social service organization affiliated with the Presbytery of Philadelphia occupied the building next until 2013 when the building was found structurally unsound and too expensive to maintain. The Chester Eastside Ministries organization moved to St. Paul&#39;s Church across the street. A permit was submitted to the city for demolition, however the Chester Historical Preservation Committee intervened and in 2015 purchased the building for $1. The committee hoped to rent the Sunday school rooms as office space and use the sanctuary as a theater.</p><br>
<p>The Chester Historical Preservation Committee worked with Partners for Sacred Places, the national, non-sectarian, non-profit organization whose mission is to support older and historic sacred places, to restore the Third Presbyterian Church.</p><br>
<h2>May 2020 Fire</h2><br>
<p>The church was severely damaged by a five-alarm fire during the early hours of May 28, 2020. There were no injuries or fatalities reported and The Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives was called to investigate the fire. Due to its vacancy and lack of electricity hookup, members of the Chester Historic Preservation Committee considered it to be a suspicious fire.</p><br>
<h2>Notable members</h2><br>
<p>Everett F. Harrison, was pastor at the Third Presbyterian Church from 1940 to 1944</p><br>
<p>John B. Hinkson, lawyer, businessman and 6th mayor of Chester, was a member of the church and served as an elder and trustee</p><br>
<p>The Henry S. and Magdalena Schwedes House is a historic house in Wabasha, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1882, part of a unique trend among the citys merchant class for brick houses. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 for its local significance in the theme of architecture. It was nominated for typifying Italianate architecture in its peak year of popularity in Wabasha, and for inaugurating a second generation of the towns merchants living in brick homes.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Schwedes House is a brick building originally consisting of a cubical two-story front section and a one-and-a-half-story section at the rear. A remodeling around 1910 added a one-story wing to the back of the house and a bay window to the southeast corner of the main section. The house exhibits classic elements of Italianate architecture in its cubic massing, the shallow hip roofs of each section, the widely overhanging eaves, and the tall windows with hood molds. The circa-1910 additions maintained the style of the original sections, even matching the distinctive window hoods. The ornamental brackets that once decorated the eaves have been removed since the house&#39;s National Register nomination.</p><br>
<p>The front door is set into a projecting brick entry with a gable roof. The south corner of the house has a wraparound veranda off the kitchen. At the rear of the lot is a 20th-century detached garage, which is considered noncontributory to the historic listing.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Henry S. Schwedes was born in Wisconsin to German immigrant parents. In 1882 he married the daughter of Lucas Kuehn, Wabashas leading merchant, and joined Kuehns business as a bookkeeper, the profession in which hed trained. Kuehn had this house built for the newlyweds next door to his own residence. Henry Schwedes soon achieved the role of secretary-treasurer in his father-in-laws prosperous company, and ultimately rose to general manager.</p><br>
<p>The Schwedes House is among the more intact examples of some 20 brick residences surviving from the 19th century in Wabasha. All were built by the first two generations of the city&#39;s merchant class, forming a distinctive architectural stock that contrasts with the elaborate wood-frame Victorian architecture that characterized most other communities in Minnesota. As time went on the choice of building material appears to have been a matter of local taste rather than accessibility, as Wabasha was not a major brick manufacturer compared to Lake City and Red Wing upriver.</p><br>
<p>The Fletcher Site, also designated 20BY28, is a Native American cemetery and archaeological site, located on the west bank of the Saginaw River in Bay City, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It is likely that occupation of the area around the Fletcher Site dates back to the Early Woodland period. However, trade goods found in the cemetery portion of the site date the burials to the mid-1700s. Manuscripts from this time indicate that the area around Saginaw Bay was inhabited at the time by Odawa and Ojibwe people. Maps indicate the presence of a village at the site of this burial ground, and trade goods found in the site date the cemetery to about this time period. There is no record of this village after 1765, and it seems likely that the settlement was disbanded around this time.</p><br>
<p>The Fletcher Site was discovered in modern times during construction activities in 1967. Archaeologists from Michigan State University excavated the site in 1967, 1968, and 1970.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Fletcher Site is located on the outer bank at a bend in the Saginaw River only a few miles upstream from Saginaw Bay. The elevation of the site is only a few feet above that of Lake Huron. When occupied, the site was likely directly on the shore of the river.</p><br>
<p>Remains of 93 individuals from 85 grave sites were recovered during archaeological excavations. At least two dozen other graves were completely destroyed. Graves were laid out in at least five rows, with bodies interred in wooden boxes apparently aligned with the direction of the rising sun. European trade goods, including beads, knives, and silver, were placed with the bodies.</p><br>
<p>The Heard-Craig House is a historic house in McKinney, Texas, USA. It was built for Stephen and Lillian Heard in 1900. The house has 7,000 square feet and four floors. In 1970, Kathryn Heard-Craig gifted the house to multiple arts organizations as a place to convene and educate. In addition to an education hub, the center is also a Regional Art Museum boasting a large collection of Texas Regional Art. Notable artists include Frank Earl Klepper, Allie Tenant, Thomas Stell, Guy Wiggins, Bruce Crane, and more. The center also showcases the work of local McKinney artists including Nancy Alexander, Kim Guthrie, Don Chesser, Judy Osentowski, and Mecha Via. Each April, the center hosts a stunning exhibit called, ART MEETS FLORAL, that showcases floral arrangements that replicate paintings. Tickets for all Heard-Craig Center events can be found at www.heardcraig.org</p><br>
<p>The house was designed in the Queen Anne style by architect James E. Flanders. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since October 8, 1987. The front lobby has beautiful fretwork and there is a One-Of-A-Kind China Cabinet in the dining room. The china cabinet has two concave doors and three convex doors and is built under the staircase. Most all of the rooms in the house have stained glass windows. The Garden leads to a two-story Carriage House used for weddings, parties, bridal showers, and club meetings.</p><br>
<p>It is a two-story frame building with a hipped roof.</p><br>
<p>Friendship Cemetery is a cemetery located in Columbus, Mississippi. In 1849, the cemetery was established on 5 acres by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. The original layout consisted of three interlocking circles, signifying the Odd Fellows emblem. By 1957, Friendship Cemetery had increased in size to 35 acres, and was acquired by the City of Columbus. The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and was designated a Mississippi Landmark in 1989. As of 2015, the cemetery contained some 22,000 graves within an area of 70 acres and was still in use. The Mississippi School for Mathematics and Science hosts a public event every April at night in the cemetery. Students complete a research project on someone buried at the cemetery, before dressing up and doing a performance as the person they researched.</p><br>
<h2>Memorial Day connection</h2><br>
<p>During the American Civil War, Columbus served as a military hospital center for the wounded, particularly after the Battle of Shiloh. More than 2,000 Confederate soldiers were interred in Friendship Cemetery, along with 40 to 150 Union soldiers.</p><br>
<p>In 1866, four women, who became known as the Decoration Day Ladies, organized a formal procession and ceremony to be held at Friendship Cemetery on April 26 so that a large group of Columbus women, both young and old, could place flowers atop the graves of these fallen Confederate and Union soldiers. The women&#39;s tribute – treating the soldiers as equals – inspired poet Francis Miles Finch to write the poem, The Blue and the Gray, which was published in an 1867 edition of The Atlantic Monthly. In 1867, the remains of all Union soldiers were exhumed and reinterred in Corinth National Cemetery. Over time, these grave decoration days – honoring those who died in military service – eventually morphed into Memorial Day.</p><br>
<h3>Monuments</h3><br>
<p>The cemetery contains two Confederate monuments:</p><br>
<h2>Notable interments</h2><br>
<p>William Edwin Baldwin (1827–1864), Confederate brigadier general during the American Civil War.</p><br>

<p>The Lucas Kuehn House is a historic house in Wabasha, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1878 for Lucas Kuehn , the citys leading merchant of the 19th century. The house was the citys first to be designed in the Italianate style. It was also part of a unique trend among Wabasha&#39;s merchant class for houses constructed of brick. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 for its local significance in the themes of architecture and commerce. It was nominated for its associations with Kuehn and for its exemplary Italianate architecture.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Lucas Kuehn House is a two-story brick building with two main sections slightly offset from each other. A large back porch, now enclosed, fills the rear angle between the sections. In the 1920s a one-story wing extending from the rear of the house was replaced with an attached garage, while a one-story sunroom was added to the side of the front section. Both additions were matched to the style of the original sections. The front of the house once had a full-width veranda. This has been replaced with a small canopy over the main entrance, though it sports an elaborate pair of brackets. The original sections&#39; windows are topped with wooden hoods with exaggerated limestone keystones.</p><br>
<p>The wide eaves are characteristic of Italianate architecture, though they lack the bracketing common to the style. Other solidly Italianate elements include the boxy two-story massing and tall, narrow windows.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Lucas Kuehn was born in the Grand Duchy of Baden in 1834 and emigrated to the United States with his family when he was 18. The Kuehns settled in Ohio for three years, where they worked as miners. Lucas showed such leadership talent that he was promoted to foreman over a crew that included his own father and brothers. In 1855 the family decided to move to Saint Paul, Minnesota. While journeying up the Mississippi River by steamboat from Dubuque, Iowa, however, they heard discouraging news about the availability of housing there and instead disembarked at Reads Landing, Minnesota. Lucas immediately found employment working the river and parted from his family.</p><br>
<p>In 1858 Kuehn settled in Wabasha. Later that year he married Clara Guenthner, a fellow native of Baden whom hed met when they were children. In 1862 he opened a bakery, but two years later he changed direction and entered the dry goods and grocery business. In this he prospered, commissioning his own building in downtown Wabasha in 1868 and expanding it threefold into the citys largest store six years later. This building still stands as a contributing property to the Wabasha Commercial Historic District.</p><br>
<p>Kuehn&#39;s business expansion was propelled by the railroad, which had reached Wabasha in 1871. He owned 640 acre across the river in Buffalo County, Wisconsin, which he logged to provide the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad with railroad ties.</p><br>
<p>In 1878, Kuehn had this house built, introducing Italianate architecture to Wabasha&#39;s housing stock. Within a few years he also commissioned two other brick Italianate houses nearby for his newlywed daughters, including the Henry S. and Magdalena Schwedes House next door.</p><br>
<p>Henry Schwedes, Kuehn&#39;s son-in-law, became his right-hand-man in the grocery business. Kuehn also branched out, opening a hotel in the early 1880s since Wabasha lacked any first-class accommodations. He was elected president of a local bank, but resigned after two years because he was so busy with other interests.</p><br>
<p>Lucas and Clara Kuehn had eight children, though one died in childhood. Clara died in 1917, leaving Lucas widowed after 58 years. The only source giving a death date for Lucas Kuehn claims 1943, which would be an implausible 107-year lifespan.</p><br>
<p>The Kuehn House is among the more intact examples of some 20 brick residences surviving from the 19th century in Wabasha. All were built by the first two generations of the city&#39;s merchant class, forming a distinctive architectural stock that contrasts with the elaborate wood-frame Victorian architecture that characterized most other communities in Minnesota. As time went on the choice of building material appears to have been a matter of local taste rather than accessibility, as Wabasha was not a major brick manufacturer compared to Lake City and Red Wing upriver. With this house and the two he built for his daughters, Kuehn steered the later years of this trend firmly toward the Italianate style.</p><br>
<p>The South Willington Historic District is a historic district encompassing the historic village of South Willington in the town of Willington, Connecticut. The village, mostly stretched along Connecticut Route 32, developed as a 19th-century industrial mill village associated with the Gardiner Hall Jr. Company. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>South Willingtons industrial history began in 1840, when Origen Hall and two partners founded the Willington Thread Company. Hall and his brother Gardner founded a second company in 1848 for the production of cotton wadding and batting. After several failed business ventures, Gardiner Hall founded the Hall Thread Company in 1860, building what is now the oldest surviving industrial building in the village. This venture also failed due to a lack of cotton occasioned by the American Civil War, but Hall restarted the business in 1867. This business flourished, operating at the site until 1954. The Halls practiced a paternalistic form of management and care of the mill workers, building a school and church, as well as housing for their workers. The companys success was instrumental in the village&#39;s growth during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.</p><br>
<p>The historic district is roughly linear, extending along River Road (Connecticut Route 32), from Fisher Hill Road in the north to the southern junction with Battye Road in the south. It widens to include Village Street, which runs parallel to River Road and is mostly lined with worker housing. The visual centerpieces of the district are the mill complex and Hall&#39;s Pond, the Colonial Revival Hall Memorial School, and the Gothic Revival Clara Hall Elliott Memorial Church (1911). Several high-quality homes, built mainly by the mill owners in the mid-to-late 19th century, line a portion of River Road. At the corner with Depot Street is a large bank barn with cupola, built by the company about 1885.</p><br>
<p>The Bay City Hall is a government building located at 301 Washington Street in Bay City, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The original settlers in what now is Bay City arrived in the 1830s. By 1857, fourteen sawmills were located along the Saginaw River, and after the Civil War both lumbering and shipbuilding continued strongly. In 1889, voters approved the construction of a new city hall. In 1892, local architects Leverett A. Pratt and Walter Koeppe were hired to design the structure, and the cornerstone was laid in 1894. The building was completed by the summer of 1897 at a cost of $175,000.</p><br>
<p>The building was used by the city through the 20th century, with a major renovation in 1975. In 2010, a major re-tiling of the roof was undertaken, but a construction incident caused a large fire.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Bay City Hall is a Richardsonian Romanesque building constructed of Indiana limestone, sandstone, and granite, measuring approximately 120 feet by 200 feet. The multi-gabled roof is tiled, and a large sandstone tower, nearly 180 feet high, is located at the southeast corner. The tower is topped with a gable roof with spires, and contains a large clock with separate dial faces on each of its four sides. The windows in the building are flat-headed units set in round arches, and are divided by heavy stone mullions. The entrance is through a huge double Romanesque arch, decorated with an elaborate stucco bas-relief, and sheltered with an arched porch supported by polished stone columns.</p><br>
<p>The interior is dominated by a large central stairwell, illuminated by skylights, with an elaborately scrolled cast iron banister.</p><br>
<p>Mercy Hospital and the Elizabeth McDowell Bialy Memorial House are two associated buildings located at 15th and Water Streets in Bay City, Michigan. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. As of 2018, the structures are operated as the Bradley House, a low income apartment complex.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Nathan B. Bradley was a lumber baron living in Bay City. In about 1880, he constructed a large brick house at this location, which was at the time near the lumber mills on the waterfront. However, by the late 1890s, his prominence in the community meant that the home&#39;s location no longer served his social needs. In 1898, Sister Mary Hilda of the Sisters of Mercy came to Bay City to establish a hospital, beginning a program of public subscription to fund the venture. In 1899, Bradley offered the order his home at a greatly reduced price to house the hospital. Sister Mary Hilda accepted, and spent one-and-one-half years equipping the hospital, opening it on September 20, 1900.</p><br>
<p>In 1905, the Sisters raised $17000 to construct a new three-story addition to the hospital. Soon afterward, another $75,000 was raised for a new four-story addition, which opened in 1911. An even larger wing was added in 1917, and featured a variety of progressive new medical facilities, such as a diet kitchen and a pediatric section.</p><br>
<p>In 1927, Mendel J. Bialy, a wealthy local Bay City manufacturer, offered the Sisters $350,000 for construction of a nurses residence in memory of his wife, Elizabeth McDowell Bialy. The two story brick structure opened in mid-1927, as housing for the students in Mercys nursing program. In 1948, a large new five story multi-colored brick addition was opened. This brought the hospitals bed total to 335, the largest in the state outside of Detroit. By this time, the original Bradley residence was in seriously bad repair. Patients were moved out in 1948, leaving the chapel as the only occupant. In 1957, the building was razed to make room for the ambulance entrance.</p><br>
<p>However, despite the progressive programs and fine medical care provided, by the mid-1960s the hospital started to face a number of serious problems. Municipal hospitals in Bay City were competing for patients, and the debts incurred for the 1948 addition were problematic. The Mercy School of Nursing closed in 1965 because it was unable to attract students. In 1972, the State Board of Hospital Licensing placed Mercy Hospital on probation. The hospital was never able to overcome these problems and closed in 1977. In 1978, the Hospital merged with the Bay City Medical Center.</p><br>
<p>Both the hospital and the Bialy house were renovated into a housing complex in 1980-81.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Mercy Hospital and Elizabeth McDowell Bialy Memorial House consists of two brick structures located near each other. The hospital is composed of four major, connected building segments dating from 1905, 1911, 1917, and 1948, ranging in height from two-and-one-half to five stories. Each building segment is separately symmetrical in massing and fenestration, but as connected presents an asymmetrical roofline and floorplan. The 1905 section is a 2-1/2 story brick structure, two bays wide, with a hipped roof.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by architect Charles Sumner Sedgwick. It was previously called the Arkansas City High School. and was home to Arkansas City High School (Kansas).</p><br>
<p>The marble and stonemasons of the building were Charles Fredrick Rothfus and Antonio and Joseph Buzzi. Construction began on July 10, 1890, and it was occupied beginning September 7, 1892, with all work done by 1893. In 1922 the high school moved to a new building, and so it served as a sixth-grade center until elementary schools absorbed the sixth grade in 1941.</p><br>
<p>Area citizens protested against district plans to raze the building. Cowley Community College took possession of the building in 1971.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture and features</h2><br>
<p>The main entrance has lion figures created by M. E. Roderick. There was a fountain, garnished with plants, in the center of the ground floor foyer. Fireplaces were installed in the board room and superintendent&#39;s office. When the school first opened, Brussels carpet was used to furnish them.</p><br>
<p>It is a three-story-with-full-basement Romanesque Revival-style building which is 90x55 ft in plan. Its NRHP nomination explains its coloration:It was constructed of white Silverdale limestone set in red mortar. At the time of construction the only red color available for mortar was vermillion, which was not waterproof. As a result of rain and weather, pink streaks soon appeared on the white stone, and the stone absorbed the color. With the passage of time and continual weathering, the entire structure has acquired a rosy hue. The color has led many viewers to the mistaken conclusion that the building was made of pink Colorado sandstone.</p><br>
<p>The building was deemed notable asan outstanding example of the stonecutters art. The fine detail and workmanship evident on the exterior make it one of the citys architectural landmarks. The building is also significant to the educational development of Arkansas City, having served the community since 1890.</p><br>

<p>Bay County was founded in 1858. The first courthouse was a small clapboard structure at the foot of Fourth Street in Bay City. In 1867, this had grown too small, and a new courthouse was erected at this location, opening in 1868. By the late 1920s, however, Judge Samuel G. Houghton was campaigning for a new courthouse. In 1931, voters approved, and in 1932 the county Board of Supervisors selected local architect Joseph C. Goddeyne to design the building and Bay City Stone Company to construct it. The project began in 1932 with the clearing of the site and the demolition of the old courthouse. The cornerstone for the new courthouse was laid on April 13, 1933.

<p>The Bay City Station of the Pere Marquette Railway, also known as The Depot Building, is a former railroad depot located at 919 Boutell Place in Bay City, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Pere Marquette Railway was established in 1863, and ran its first line between Flint and Saginaw. They extended the line to Ludington, and then looked to extend further into the Saginaw Valley. Meanwhile, investors in Bay City had formed the Bay City and East Saginaw Railroad Company to lay a separate line. Seeing the potential, the Pere Marquette purchased the Bay City and East Saginaw line in 1867. The first train pulled into Bay City on November 23, 1867.</p><br>
<p>By 1899, the Pere Marquette had merged with other railways and was the largest in Michigan. They built several new passenger and freight depots over the next few years.</p><br>
<p>The building remained in use for both passenger and freight service until about 1951, after which it was abandoned. In 1953, the Depot was renovated for use by the Greyhound Bus Company, who removed the tower above the roofline, as well as the porte cochere. The bus company vacated the building in 1969, and it remained vacant until 2003. At that time, the Great Lakes Center Foundation purchased the Depot and began plans to restore it. Restoration work got underway in 2007, and the tower and porte cohere were replaced. Tenants moved in the following year.</p><br>

Above is a limestone bandcourse separating the first and second floors, and pairs of one-over-one double-hung windows are on the second floor.</p><br>
<p>The Center Avenue Neighborhood Residential District is a residential historic district located in Bay City, Michigan, running primarily along Center, Fifth, and Sixth Avenues between Monroe and Green Avenues, with additional portions of the district along Fourth between Madison and Johnson, down to Tenth Avenue between Madison and Lincoln, along Green to Ridge, and around Carroll Park. The original section, along Center and portions of Fifth and Sixth, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first sawmill in Bay City was built in 1837; by 1854, a dozen mills were operating; and by 1860, over eight hundred people lived in the city. The city boomed during the next decade, and by 1870, 7000 people lived in Bay City. The influx of people created a housing shortage for rich and poor alike, and wealthy citizens chose to build along Center Avenue. Although the area had first been platted in 1837, development did not occur until the 1870s and 1880s. Wealthy families, mostly in the lumber and salt trade, found that the area was convenient to bay City&#39;s commercial district, while still maintaining a quiet residential feel.</p><br>
<p>After the turn of the century, lumbering went into decline, and new industry and trades took its place, including agriculture, iron, and textiles. Newer wealthy businessmen followed their predecessors and built houses along Center Avenue, both in among the earlier houses and farther eastward. The district continued to expand until the Great Depression. In the subsequent years, the district has maintained the residences and streetscapes that made it a fashionable place to build early in its history.</p><br>
<p>In 2005, a group of neighbors began meeting in the area to promote historical preservation in the neighborhood. From this, the Center Avenue Neighborhood Association (CANA) was born. The Association has helped promote the neighborhood and support the City of Bay City in the administration of a National Scenic Byways grant.</p><br>

Third level has arched windows formed by pilasters springing from the top of the ground floor. The windows are 1/1 double hung with retro-fitted solar shades. There are relief panels below the windows. There has been a large addition on the east side of the building (1936); however, the entrance on the west side of the building and the two ends of the building have been kept in original condition. Goddard Hall was built in 1913. The architect was Otto H. Thorman, and the historical and current use is as classrooms. The original building has a rectangular shape."</p><br>
<p>"Goddard Hall is one of two buildings constructed in the California Mission Revival Style and one of four buildings on the New Mexico State University campus included in this nomination. Goddard Hall is significant because it is one of the original campus buildings built on the "Horseshoe" as part of Trost and Trosts campus plan from 1906. Although a "Spanish Renaissance" style was adopted by the Regents, Trost and Trost used more of an "eclectic Mission Style" under their plan. In keeping with this style, Thorman used a more traditional California Mission Style when he designed Goddard Hall, including a bell tower.

<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The city of Fitchburg has an industrial history extending to the 18th century, when saw and grist mills were erected along the Nashua River.

Moran Square developed as a commercial and industrial hub just east of the citys Union Station, flourishing during the height of the citys prosperity. The major industrial development was spearheaded by Sylvanus Sawyer, who in 1860 built the districts oldest factory building, at 64 Main Street.
