<p>The Orton Park Historic District is a residential historic district on the near east side of Madison, Wisconsin. The district is centered on Orton Park, the first public park in Madison, and includes 56 houses facing or near to the park. The first houses in the area were built in the 1850s during a local housing boom; however, after the Panic of 1857 ended the boom, development in the area halted. When Orton Park was developed out of a former cemetery in the 1880s, more houses were built near the park; construction in the district continued through the 1950s. Many houses in the district were designed in the Queen Anne, Prairie School, and Craftsman styles, and local architects Claude and Starck designed at least seven houses in the district. The district also includes examples of Greek Revival, Italianate, and Colonial Revival architecture.</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 31, 1988. Three houses in the district, the Bascom B. Clarke House, the Curtis-Kittleson House and the George A. Lougee House are listed individually on the National Register, as is Orton Park itself.</p><br>
<p>These are good examples of different architecture styles within the district, in roughly the order built.</p><br>
<p>The John and Harriet Martin house at 1033 Spaight St. is a 2.5-story Italianate-styled house built in 1855. The shallow hip roof and double brackets supporting the eaves are typical of the style. This example has short windows tucked into the frieze and is clad in local sandstone. The dormers were added after 1947 and the entry porch is a later replacement for the original wraparound veranda. John Martin was a businessman who moved from Cincinnati to co-publish the Madison Patriot.</p><br>
<p>The William Collinson house at 1139 Rutledge St is a 2-story cottage built in 1856. Its style is Greek Revival, which is seen in the rather low-pitched roof, the cornice returns, and the lack of decoration in the window sills and lintels. The entry porch is fancier than typical Greek Revival - perhaps more in the direction of Eastlake. The structure of the older part of the house is hewn timbers, whereas newer parts are balloon framed. From 1892 to 1969 the family of Edward Appleby, an accountant at Fuller and Johnson, lived here.</p><br>
<p>The Curtis-Kittleson House at 1102 Spaight Street is a 2.5-story mansion built in 1901. Designed by Gordon and Panauck, it displays most of the features of Queen Anne style: an asymmetric façade with a corner tower and wraparound porch, a complex roof, tall chimneys, and stained glass windows. The walls are a pink-orange brick. The Palladian window in the gable end and the columns of the porch are drawn from Neoclassical style - common in later Queen Annes. The house was built for Dexter Curtis, whose father sold saddlery equipment, but who succeeded on his own trading agricultural implements.</p><br>
<p>The Wynne house at 1047 Rutledge Street is a 2-story house designed by Claude and Starck and built in 1905. The style is Prairie School, evident in the horizontal emphasis of the façade and the bands of windows. The stucco walls are also common for that style. Not typical of the style are the arch-topped windows, and the second gable peak behind and parallel to the front one. Frank Wynne was an attorney and real estate developer.</p><br>
<p>The Miller house at 1125 Rutledge Street is another house designed by Claude and Starck - this one built in 1907. Its style is Tudor Revival, with the typical steep roof and the common false half-timbering in the second story, but as is common with Claude and Stark, the Revival style is leavened with modern touches: the half-timbering is all vertical lines rather than more interesting shapes; the windows are broad and convenient; the no-drama chimneys do not dominate the façade. And the first floor is clad in horizontal board and batten - an unusual choice. George Miller was president of the G.P. Miller Lumber Company.</p><br>
<p>The Lougee house at 620 S. Ingersoll is a 2-story Prairie Style house designed by Claude and Starck and built in 1907. The design shows a strong horizontal emphasis in the belt course and the broad eaves. The exterior is stucco and the roof is covered in slate. The house resembles Frank Lloyd Wright&#39;s Harley Bradley house in Kankakee, Illinois. George Lougee was a hotelier, operating the Park Hotel and University Club in Madison and the Palmer House in Chicago.</p><br>
<p>The Mason house at 1115 Rutledge Street is a 2.5-story house designed by Claude and Starck and built in 1913. Its massing is Prairie Style (hip roof, broad windows, strong horizontal lines), but the details are Colonial Revival (the pediments in the dormers, the corner quoins, the columns framing the front door, the keystone ornament above windows, and the denticulated cornice under the eaves. George Mason was president of the Mason Donaldson Lumber Company.</p><br>
<p>The Plough Inn is a stone and brick structure built in 1853 southwest of what was then Madison, Wisconsin. The building served as an inn for travelers on the road heading southwest for the lead-mining region. In 1980 the inn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Frederick and Amelia Paunack were immigrants from Saxony in what is now Germany. Frederick arrived in America in 1849, lived in Baltimore for two years, then moved to Madison in 1851. He was a stonecutter, worked on university buildings, and bought a business that produced construction stone. In 1853 Paunack built a house that is the uphill end of the inn described by this article. That first section was two stories tall, clad in locally quarried sandstone. The low-pitched roof with cornice returns were elements from the Greek Revival style that was popular at the time. One corner is clipped because thats where the property line lay at the time it was built. The Paunacks house was on an important road leading out of Madison toward southwest Wisconsin, and they soon began hosting travellers there.</p><br>
<p>But the Paunacks sold the inn after a couple years to a Thomas Griffiths, and he quickly sold it to John Whare, Whare&#39;s inn hosted travelling salesmen, farmers, legislatures, and Union soldiers during the Civil War. Whare operated the inn until 1865.</p><br>
<p>Since then the inn has been called Halfway House, Swain House, and Frey House. Professor Roland Stebbins lived there with his family. The house served as writer&#39;s studio, an antique and art shop, and B&B. The original sandstone and brick have been covered with stucco.</p><br>
<p>IN 1980 the inn was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and the State Register of Historic Places in 1989, as an unusual "significant remnant of Madison&#39;s early development."</p><br>
<p>The Union Block is a commercial building located at 100-110 East Michigan Avenue in Saline, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>It is unclear when the Union Block was constructed, but it was almost certainly between 1872 and 1882. The building appears to have been constructed in two parts: The western two bays (on the corner) and the eastern four bays. Land speculator Henry J. Miller purchased the western, corner lot in 1871. By 1880 he had constructed two buildings: the current two-bay portion of the Union Block, and another brick building around the corner on Ann Arbor Street (which was destroyed by fire in 1881). The eastern section of the building was purchased by Sherman Hinckley in 1877; Hinckley likely constructed the eastern section shortly thereafter.</p><br>
<p>By 1879, Miller and Hinckley co-owned a store in one bay of the building, and Hinckley apparently purchased the entire building at some point. He owned it until his death in 1891. Throughout the years, the Union Block has housed a variety of commercial stores on the ground floor and offices on the second. Stores in the building have included a harness shop, jewelry store, drug store, post office, general store, meat market, and Salvation Army.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Union Block is a two-story, six-bay, rectangular red brick Italianate commercial building. It measures 132 feet by 60 feet, and occupies a corner lot, fronting directly onto the sidewalk. Bays are divided by brick pilasters topped by decorative capitals. The two sections of the building have slightly different windows and differing secondary cornice line. Three rectangular windows topped by brick hoodmolds and keystones are in each of the west two bays, while two rectangular windows topped by brick hoodmolds without keystones are in each of the east four bays. Dentillated brickwork and an ornamental bracketed cornice top the structure; the original secondary cornice has been removed.</p><br>
<p>The western facade, along Ann Arbor Street, contains a fire escape, more windows, and entrances on both stories. In the rear is a two-story wooden porch running along the length of the building.</p><br>
<p>The Samuel D. Van Duzer House was built as a single family home, and is located at 205 South Ann Arbor Street in Saline, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This house was constructed in 1858; newspaper reports indicate it was constructed for merchant Caleb Van Husan, although tax records indicate that Samuel D. Van Duzer was the original owner. In either case, Van Duzer was living in the house by the early 1860s, and remained living there for over 50 years. Samuel Van Duzer came to Saline in 1834 from New York state, when he was 14. He eventually went in to the dry goods business, but then spent most of his career as a clerk and bookkeeper. He also served on the village&#39;s board of trustees, and was twice elected president.</p><br>
<p>Van Duzen lived in the house until his death in 1908. In 1912, the property was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. George Cook. Cook owned a livery business in Saline, and also served as president of the Village of Saline, as well as a Justice of the Peace. The Cooks Cook did the stucco work which now covers the building.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Samuel D. Van Duzer House is a -story frame structure with a stucco veneer and a steeply pitched gabled roof. It has a one-story rear addition and a stucco front porch. A central dormer in the roof, facing the street, contains a Gothic-arched window and pointed-arch eaves trim. The gable ends are half-timbered.</p><br>
<p>The Wallace Block is a commercial building located at 101-113 South Ann Arbor Street in Saline, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1881, the structures previously located at this site were destroyed by fire. In 1887, the village of Saline purchased a plot of land on which to build a fire house. The combined fire house and village hall, which is now the northern one-and-a-half bays of the Wallace Block, was erected later that year. Also in 1887, Edwin Wallace constructed an adjoining six-bay building known then as the Wallace Block. This building had six ground-level storefronts and a second-story hall where the Saline Opera House was located. Early stores located in the building included a barber shop, clothing store, tailor, and a machine shop, and later a grocer, candy store, print shop, and hardware.</p><br>
<p>The Opera House was located for a number of years in the Wallace Block. A dance floor was installed in 1912, and the space later served as a meeting hall and basketball court. The tower above the fire house was removed in 1931, and the original upper floor windows were bricked over in the 1960s. However, the building was later remodelled for commercial use, and the facade rehabilitated.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Wallace Block is a two-story Italianate red brick structure measuring 116 feet by 70 feet, fronting directly on the sidewalk. It is seven-and-a-half bays wide, with the northern one-and-a-half bays the site of the former village hall. A one-story brick and two-story tile-sheathed addition are located in the rear. The building has recessed second-story panels in each bay, which each contain two rectangular window openings with hoodmolds. A dentillated cornice with brackets and a secondary wooden cornice top the structure. The street level contains central recessed entryways in each storefront, flanked by large display windows which sit on a raised foundation.</p><br>
<p>The Henry R. Watson House is a single-family home located at 7215 North Ann Arbor-Saline Road in Saline, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Dr. Henry R. Watson studied and practiced medicine with his father in the early nineteenth century, and set up his own practice around 1851. In 1882, he purchased the property this house sits on. A previous house was already located here, but in 1883 Watson hired builder Henry Rentchler to construct this house. He raised sheep on the surrounding farm.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Watson house is a two-and-one-half story frame cross-gable Stick Style house on a stone foundation. It has a wraparound Eastlake front porch and an overhanging side porch. Decorative details include corner posts, shingled beltcourses, and sunburst panels above windows and in the gable ends. There are multiple projecting bays having diagonal brackets at the eavesline.</p><br>

After Church&#39;s death in 1880, the house passed to his daughter, Mary Church Eaton. Eaton was the wife of prominent lawyer Peter M. Eaton, although it is unknown whether he ever occupied the house.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Zalmon Church House is a two-story painted brick Italianate structure. It has a hipped roof with a single-story gabled wing. It has paired eaves brackets and segmental-arched lintels which are typical Italianate details. A front porch and small side porch are of more recent construction, but complement the architecture.</p><br>

<p>Forother places of a similar nameSmith Hall </p><br>
<p>The Hiram Smith Hall and Annex is part of the University of Wisconsin-Madison College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. The Hall was built in 1891 to house the first permanent dairy school in the western hemisphere, which had been established the year before. The annex was added in 1909 as the dairy school grew. In 1985 the pair were listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The University of Wisconsin was created in 1848, with its early buildings on the east side of Bascom Hill, facing the state capitol. Early on, the UW taught a classical curriculum, focusing on geography, English grammar, Latin and Greek. As years passed, that curriculum shifted to more practical subjects like the mechanical arts and agriculture.</p><br>
<p>At first the whole UW was housed in North Hall. South Hall was the next added. As more buildings were added, departments moved to them and in 1884 South Hall became Agriculture Hall.</p><br>
<p>In 1886 the UW initiated its Short Course in Agriculture - twelve weeks of practical instruction for farmers, held in the winter when they werent busy with crops. The UWs College of Agriculture was founded in 1889. The UW Dairy School was started the following year - a twelve-week practical course in butter and cheesemaking - the first permanent dairy school in the USA</p><br>
<p>But also in 1890 Stephen Babcock developed his test to determine the fat content in a sample of milk. This quick and simple test let creameries pay individual farmers more for better-quality milk, encouraging improvement of herds and cattle care, and helped the dairy industry grow.</p><br>
<p>The Babcock tester and the UWs short courses were economically valuable to the state and brought publicity, producing support for the UWs dairy endeavors. On this wave of good will, Dean Henry and farmer, legislator and UW Regent Hiram Smith persuaded the state legislature to approve funds to build a dairy instruction building on the UW campus. (One of Dean Henry&#39;s tactics was to have legislators observe students making butter and cheese in that first dairy building, to see how crowded it was.) It was good that the new building was approved, because enrollment in the dairy school leaped from two in 1890 to 75 in January 1891.</p><br>
<p>The new building was designed by George Ferry of Milwaukee. The lowest bid for construction was from T.C. McCarthy, who had previously supervised building of the 1885 Science Hall and the 1885 UW-Chemistry building, among other projects. Construction of Hiram Smith Hall began in the fall of 1891, with the contract specifying that the first floor be ready for students by January 1, 1892. McCarthy&#39;s firm achieved that ambitious goal, with 100 dairy students starting classes there in January. Construction of the upper floors continued for months into mid-1892.</p><br>
<p>Ferry designed the building&#39;s exterior in the Queen Anne style that was popular at the time. Typical of the style are the complex roof, the asymmetric facade and tower, the prominent chimneys, and the various surface textures. The half-timbering adds a Tudor Revival flavor. The picturesque building stands 3.5 stories tall, with its roof clad in red tile.</p><br>
<p>The building was full from the start. In 1901 a two-story north section was added to hold cheese and butter rooms. In 1909 another wing was added on the north for bottling equipment. The annex and additions harmonized with the original building&#39;s style. The dairy department stayed in the building until 1951, when it moved to the new Babcock Hall. Agricultural journalism and poultry science occupied Smith Hall after. The Annex was occupied by veterinary science, then the poultry department, then the soils department. As of 2024 King Hall houses the Department of Life Sciences Communications.</p><br>
<p>In 1985 Smith Hall and the Annex were listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Smith Hall is considered significant at a national level as housing the first permanent dairy school in the USA, and for its association with scientists Stephen Babcock and Harry Luman Russell. It is considered significant at a local level as a rare Queen Anne design for an education building on the UW campus. It is also the only education building on campus designed by Ferry and Clas. Both buildings were added to the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<p>The Emanuel D. Adler House is a historic 1888 residence built in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1888. It was designed by Milkwaukee architect Alfred Charles Clas. Clas partnered with George Bowman Ferry in 1890 and they formed Ferry & Clas. The partnership continued until Ferry&#39;s death.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Emanuel D. Adler was a successful manufacturer of clothing. The house was added to the State and the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>

<p>The L. D. Fargo Public Library is a historic public library at 120 E. Madison Street in Lake Mills, Wisconsin.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Businessman Lorenzo Dow Fargo donated funds for the library to Lake Mills in 1899; the building was completed in 1902. Prolific Milwaukee architects George Ferry and Alfred Clas, who also designed several other Wisconsin libraries, designed the library; Ferry went on to serve on the librarys board. The librarys design incorporates elements of Gothic Revival and Tudor Revival architecture. The two-story building has a rough fieldstone exterior, a projecting entrance block with a bargeboard roof above the entrance, four steep dormers with matching bargeboard on the front facade, and a steeple atop the gable roof. When it opened, the library became a local community center as well, and both the local womens club and the citys branch of the Women&#39;s Christian Temperance Union used it as their headquarters.</p><br>
<p>The library was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989. It is still in use as the city&#39;s public library.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The library was built in 1936 using funds and land from the estate of Mary L. Morris. Previously, Randolph had had a circulating library, hosted by several local stores, which had over 3,000 books before the permanent library was completed. The architecture firm Clas & Clas, founded by the prominent Milwaukee architect Alfred Clas, designed the library in the Classical Moderne style which was popular during the Great Depression, particularly in buildings funded by New Deal programs. The one-story library&#39;s design includes an ashlar limestone exterior, a classical entrance with pilasters and an entablature, a course of grouped square metal tiles, large spandrels beneath the sash windows and a hip roof.</p><br>
<p>The library was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 1990. It is still in use as Randolph&#39;s public library.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Lawyer Daniel K. Tenney built the Tenney Buildings predecessor, the Italianate style Tenney Block, on the site of the Tenney Building in 1877. His brother Henry W. Tenney and nephew Charles Kent Tenney were also Madison lawyers, and his brother Horace was a local journalist. Charless sons Charles Homer Tenney and William D. Tenney, a lawyer and businessman respectively, announced that they would replace the Tenney Block with a larger building in 1928. Construction on the new building began in 1929 and was completed in 1930. The architecture firm of Law, Law & Potter, the largest in Madison in the 1920s and 1930s, designed the Art Deco building. While the building was initially successful and well-occupied, the impact of the Great Depression led to the Tenney family losing the building to foreclosure in 1936; despite this, subsequent owners were able to profit from the building, and it remained a popular choice for Madison&#39;s professional offices into the 1960s. The building underwent a $6,000,000 renovation in 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Tenney Building was added to the State and the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.</p><br>
<p>The Oakwood Cemetery Mausoleum is a cemetery structure located in the Oakwood Cemetery in Saline, Michigan. The mausoleum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>

<p>Nickels Arcade is a commercial building located at 326-330 South State Street in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. The building is notable as perhaps the only remaining example in Michigan of a free-standing commercial arcade building of a type that was popularized by the Cleveland Arcade.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>John H. Nickels owned and operated a meat market at this location on State Street. His grandson Tom E. Nickels inherited a portion of the property, and bought other portions of the property from his brothers and sister. Nickels hired local architect Hermann Pipp to design this building. Construction by A.R. Cole & Co. began in 1915. The first tenant, the Farmers and Mechanics bank, moved in that year. The entire building, however, was not completed until 1918, due in part to delays caused by the onset of World War I. Nickels owned the Arcade until his death in 1932, when he passed it on to his children, James and Nora. In July 2015, a University of Michigan student from Saugatuck fell through the glass roof of the arcade to his death.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Nickels Arcade is a 261-foot-long gallery linking State Street on one side to Maynard Street on the other. The principal facade faces onto State Street, and consists of a three-story, three-bay open portico flanked with store/office blocks. The facade is clad with a buff-colored decorative architectural terra cotta. The Maynard Street facade is similar to the State Street facade in design, but is clad primarily with yellow brick, with additional ornamental detailing of terra cotta. The gallery running between the facades is covered with a gable skylight of metal-framed wire-glass panels.</p><br>
<p>On each side of the gallery are ground-level shops which face onto the roofed passage. These shops are essentially two stories in height, some with a mezzanine level. Upper-story office windows above the commercial spaces also face onto the gallery. The arcade is floored with blocks of square red tile in black borders. The arcade is divided into three sections: the section nearest State Street continues the terra cotta cladding and detailing of the State Street facade. This section is separated from the next by a segmental archway; a similar archway near the other end separates the center section from an entrance vestibule.</p><br>

<p>The Bell-Spalding House, also known as the Tuomy House, is a single-family home located at 2117 Washtenaw Avenue in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Beginning in 1853, George W. and Jane E. Bell consolidated a number of smaller parcels into a larger farmstead. Most likely in 1854, the couple built a small Greek Revival farmhouse that is now the rear ell of the current building. In 1859, the Bells sold their property to Ransom and Hariot Richards, who in turn sold it to David and Julia Henning in 1863. The Hennings sold the portion of the land which included this house to Frederick A. and Almina S. Spalding (or Spaulding) in 1864. Frederick Spalding was born in about 1800 in Cayuga County, New York and his wife, Almina Shaw, was born in about 1818. They lived in New York until 1863 or 1864, when they moved to this property.</p><br>
<p>Soon after purchasing the property, the Spaldings constructed the Italianate dwelling that comprises most of the current house, attaching it to the already-extant Greek Revival house. The Spaldings devoted themselves to farming the property, living here until Fredericks death in 1874. Their sons, Frederick Jr, and Volney, established themselves in the Ann Arbor community. Frederick Spalding Jr graduated from the University of Michigan medical school and set up a practice in Ann Arbor, and Volney Spalding became a botany professor at the University, as well as the founder of the University Botanical Gardens. After Frederick Srs death, Almina moved in with her son Frederick Jr until her own death in 1889.</p><br>
<p>After Frederick Srs death in 1874, the farmstead was purchased by brothers Patrick and Cornelius L. Tuomy, with Cornelius farming the land and taking up residence in the house. The Tuomys were sons of Irish immigrants who had settled in Washtenaw County in 1835. Cornelius farmed the land as a bachelor until his marriage to Julia Ann Kearney ("a woman of rare intelligence, social power, and popularity") in 1885. They raised three children: Bill, Kathryn, and Thomas, and lived in the house until Corneliuss death in 1912. Thomas died in 1918, and when Bill returned from World War I in 1919, he and Kathryn went into the real estate business, developing some of the farmstead.</p><br>
<p>Kathryn Tuomy died in 1965 and Bill Tuomy followed in 1966. The house and two surrounding acres were transferred to the University of Michigan, for use as the headquarters of the Historical Society of Michigan and the Academy of Arts, Science and Letters. In 1982, the ownership of the house was transferred to the Society outright.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Bell-Spalding House was built in two primary sections. The original portion, from about 1854, is a one-and-one-half-story timber-framed Greek Revival structure. The main portion, from about 1864, is a two-story, three-bay, Italianate structure. Further, single-story additions surround the 1854 section.</p><br>
<p>The original 1854 section is timber-framed and wood-sheathed on a fieldstone foundation coated with cement. The original center entrance with flanking sidelights is still located within the house. The house likely originally had first floor windows and a single-story porch, but these are now covered over with additions. However, the front facade&#39;s three frieze windows, board-and-batten siding, and eavesline, and gable roof are all still visible.</p><br>
<p>The 1864 Italianate addition is a balloon-framed structure covered with clapboard with a hipped roof. It sits on a fieldstone foundation coated with cement. It has a center double-door entryway flanked with pairs of four-over-four, double-hung sash window units with pediments above and kickplates below. The siding is tongue-and-groove rather than clapboard on the first floor level. A porch spans the width of the first floor. The second floor contains three evenly spaced pairs of four-over-four double-hung sash window units similar to those on the first floor.</p><br>
<p>Other additions, likely also from 1864, surround the 1854 house. These are single-story, shed-roofed extensions with double-hung windows.</p><br>
<p>The Coffee County Courthouse in Manchester, Tennessee is a historic courthouse which was built in 1871. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<p>It was built after the original 1837 courthouse was destroyed by a fire. It is a brick Italianate-style building, with brick laid in American bond.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Coffee County Courthouse graces the public square in Manchester, Tennessee. Its construction took place in 1871, following the destruction of the original courthouse in 1837 due to fire. The intricate details, including woodwork, painting, plastering, iron, tin, and stonework, were commissioned to J.O. and D.S. Wright of Nashville. Historical records indicate their compensation amounted to $8,755.00 for their diligent efforts. The durable bricks used were locally sourced and meticulously laid in a six-course American bond pattern on the second floor, with slight variations. The bricks rested upon a bed of lime and sand mortar. The brickwork, handled by contractor Henry Levy, incurred expenses totaling $2,341.00. The identity of the Architect, however, remains undisclosed.</p><br>
<p>The two-story architectural masterpiece boasts an Italianate design and is characterized by its brick structure. Originally, it stood in a rectangular configuration, measuring 44 x 64 feet. The ground floor featured four double doors, positioned centrally on each side of the edifice. An intersecting hallway linked the northern and southern entrances, while another hallway connected the eastern and western doors, intersecting at the buildings midpoint. Each corner of the ground floor housed a spacious room measuring 15 x 24 feet. These quarters accommodated the Coffee County Courtroom and various county officers offices.</p><br>
<p>Ascending to the second floor, one would find the Circuit Court and jury rooms thoughtfully located. In 1914, an expansion project was undertaken on the courthouse&#39;s north side. In the process, the east and west doors were replaced with brickwork, and the former east-to-west hallway underwent a transformation into four separate fireproof storage vaults. This two-story addition, completed in 1914, boasts a flat roof and spans 24 x 25 feet. Meticulous attention was given to ensure the addition harmonized stylistically and in its trim with the original 1871 structure. Notably, the newer bricks utilized in the addition adopt a smaller size and a common bond pattern.</p><br>
<p>The courthouse exudes a distinctive Victorian charm, evident in its ornate yet tasteful trim work. The design incorporates hood molds, brackets, dentils, and cornices, all crafted from robust sheet metal coated in tin. At the heart of the 1871 building, a prominent twelve-column cupola graces the gabled roof. The cupola&#39;s elegantly curved, pyramid roof is slightly truncated to create a base for the slender sheet metal spire that adorns its pinnacle.</p><br>
<h2>Significance</h2><br>
<p>In 1870, an overwhelming majority of Tennesseans, voting at a ratio of 3 to 1, embraced a fresh State constitution aimed at fostering the recovery process following the Civil War. Despite fervent opposition from extremists who sought to maintain minority radical influence over Tennessee, the new constitution prevailed. The election results for that year marked a resounding triumph for the Democratic party. During that same year, the original Coffee County Courthouse was consumed by fire, prompting the construction of the existing edifice out of sheer necessity. The intricate architectural design chosen for the present courthouse aptly mirrors the assurance and hopefulness of Coffee Countians, as Tennessee transitioned away from the dominance of post-Civil War minority radical factions.</p><br>
<p>The Courthouses architectural splendor is further highlighted by a superb showcase of ornamental tin craftsmanship, representing a significant exemplar of Tennessees architectural landscape in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War. This structure serves as the central focal point within downtown Manchester, playing a vital role in the overall townscape.</p><br>
<p>Recent times have witnessed substantial debate concerning the destiny of the courthouse. There has been notable support for the proposition of demolishing the current building and replacing it with a new one. However, the courthouse has narrowly escaped such prospects on several occasions, thanks to the dedication of local historical organizations advocating for its preservation. Currently, the building is undergoing much-needed restoration and repairs, offering a more promising outlook for its future compared to previous years.</p><br>

<p>Seagate, is located along Sarasota Bay in Manatee County, Florida, and was the former winter estate of Powel Crosley Jr., a noted Cincinnati, Ohio, industrialist and entrepreneur. Crosley had the 11,000 ft2, Mediterranean Revival-style home built in 1929 for his wife, Gwendolyn, on 45 acre of land along Sarasota Bay that was platted in 1925 for a failed subdivision. New York architect George Albree Freeman Jr. designed the home; Ivo A. de Minicis, a Tampa, Florida, architect, drafted the plans; and Paul W. Bergmann, a Sarasota contractor, reportedly built the two-and-a-half-story, cast-stone-and-stucco home in 135 days. Gwendolyn Crosley died at Seagate in 1939. After allowing the Army Air Corps to use the home for airmen who were training at a nearby airbase during World War II, Crosley sold the property in 1947.</p><br>
<p>Freeman Horton and his wife, Mabel, bought it the following year. Freeman Horton was a civil engineer who proposed the construction of the original Sunshine Skyway Bridge across Tampa Bay. The Horton family lived on the estate from 1948 to 1977. The Campeau Corporation of America acquired the property in the early 1980s, intending to develop it into condominium units and use the residence serving as the development&#39;s clubhouse, but its plans failed. The Crosley home and 45 acre of adjacent property were formally added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 21, 1983.</p><br>
<p>Friends of Seagate Inc., a local, nonprofit preservation group led efforts to preserve the historic property and its remaining undeveloped land in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The Manatee County, Florida, government purchased the home and 16.5 acre of the property in 1991 for $1.6 million; the State of Florida purchased the estate&#39;s remaining 28.4 acre for $2 million for future expansion of the University of South Florida.</p><br>
<p>The present-day Crosley home and 16.5 acre of land are operated as an event rental property. The university&#39;s 28.4 acre tract of land that was part of the former Seagate estate, included in the national register nomination, is the present-day site of the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee campus.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<h3>Property location</h3><br>
<p>Archaeological studies made at the site in late 1980s/early 1990s suggest that the Calusa inhabited the area during the archaic period. Nearby fresh water access is documented in early plats that may have been constant, since adjacent middens attest to a long period of occupation. Allan Horton, a longtime resident of Manatee County and a former resident of the Seagate estate, described a distinctive structure on the property as a compacted, raised earthen platform that was elevated evenly at 18 in to 24 in, with a perfectly circular diameter of 32 ft. The structure reportedly resembled the ancient dancing or ceremonial platform that archaeologists had discovered elsewhere in the state. An entrance sign for a drive-in theater, the landmark that Horton used to locate the structure, was demolished on an adjacent parcel, making the potentially ancient structure&#39;s location difficult to find. Also, a path for electrical service poles that traversed the area had disturbed an area with mounds nearby, possibly destroying the structure in the process.</p><br>
<p>The site of the Seagate property was once part of Hillsborough County, Florida, which was established in 1834, following the United States acquisition of the Florida territory from Spain in 1821. Seagates location is also associated with Sarasota, Florida, because of its location south of Bowlees Creek, the natural land transportation barrier. Seagate bears a property address and a postal designation of Sarasota; however, when Hillsborough County was subdivided to establish additional counties, governmental oversight for the area went to Manatee County, Florida, which was subsequently subdivided to create more counties, including Sarasota County, Florida, in 1921. The arbitrary line chosen to delineate Manatee County from Sarasota County was drawn at the southern boundary of Seagate and everything to the north remained within Manatee County. Sarasota addresses remain from that line to the creek.</p><br>
<h3>Development in 1929</h3><br>
<p>In 1929 a wealthy industrialist named Powel Crosley Jr. purchased a 63 acre parcel of bay-front property and had a built a winter retreat along Sarasota Bay for his wife, Gwendolyn B. (Arden) Crosley. The property was the site of a proposed subdivision platted in 1925, but it failed to be developed during the Great Depression. Sea Gate, the subdivisions name was contracted to Seagate over the years, including the name of Seagate Drive, the estates original driveway, which leads to the Crosley home.</p><br>
<p>Crosley, a native of Cincinnati, Ohio, was an inventor and entrepreneur, as well as an avid sportsman. His manufacturing companies produced Crosley automobiles, radios, and household appliances. Crosley was also a pioneer in radio broadcasting and a former owner of the Cincinnati Reds major league baseball team. Crosley&#39;s wife, Gwendolyn, who suffered from tuberculosis, died at Seagate in 1939. He rarely used the house after her death.</p><br>
<p>During World War II, Crosley allowed the USA Army Air Corps to use the retreat for its airmen who were training at the nearby Sarasota Army Air Base, the now Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. The home may also have been used as an officers club for a brief period. Crosley sold his estate property in 1947 to the D and D Corporation.</p><br>
<h3>Subsequent owners</h3><br>
<p>Mabel and Freeman Horton purchased the property in 1948 and owned Seagate for nearly forty years, although the family only lived there until 1977. Freeman Horton was a civil engineer who proposed the construction of the original Sunshine Skyway Bridge across Tampa Bay from Saint Petersburg in Pinellas County through the waters of Hillsborough County to Tiera Ceia in Manatee County. The bridge replaced a ferry service.</p><br>
<p>In the early 1980s the Campeau Corporation of America, a real estate developer, acquired the property, intending to build a condominium community on the site and use the historic house as a clubhouse. In November 1982 Campeau nominated the house and 45 acre property for a listing on the National Register of Historic Places. (The listing is unusual because it also included all of the remaining land; most historic listings only include structures.) The property was formally added to the register on January 21, 1983, but the planned real estate project failed when the economy faltered shortly thereafter.</p><br>
<h3>Preservation efforts</h3><br>
<p>Seagate was saved from commercial development by the efforts of adjacent residents including Kafi Benz, who opposed several ensuing proposals for development. See also: Benz founded Friends of Seagate Inc. (a local, nonprofit preservation organization) and initiated a campaign for Seagate&#39;s preservation. Benz and her group also began a fundraising effort for its acquisition.</p><br>
<p>In 1991 the Manatee County Commission paid $1.6 million for 16.5 acre of the original subdivision along the bay front that contained the structures built in 1929 for Crosley and his wife with the intention of preserving and renovating the estate. The University of South Florida purchased the remaining 28.4 acre for $2 million as a site for future expansion of the satellite campus.</p><br>
<h2>Present-day use</h2><br>
<p>The historic Seagate residence, called the Powel Crosley Estate, is used as a meeting, conference, and event venue. The bay-front estate is supported, in part, by fundraising through the Crosley Estate Foundation, a nonprofit charitable corporation. In a re-separation of New College from the University of South Florida, the satellite campus for the Tampa-based university was removed from the original New College campus on the nearby Edith Ringling estate and a solo campus was created on the eastern portion of the Seagate property for use by the University of South Florida alone.</p><br>
<p>The University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee&#39;s campus on the former Seagate property includes a three-story, 134,540 ft2 building on a 28.4 acre parcel of land, in addition to facilities in other nearby locations.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Crosely&#39;s Mediterranean Revival-style house, auxiliary garages, and living quarters for staff were designed by New York architect George Albree Freeman Jr., while Ivo A. de Minicis, a Tampa, Florida, architect, drafted the plans. The 45 acre property in the southwest corner of mainland Manatee County included the 11,000 ft2 house with its porte-cochere entry, flagstone patio and walkways, a swimming pool, fountains, a seaplane dock, and a yacht basin. Some reports stated that Paul W. Bergmann, a Sarasota contractor, built the two-and-a-half-story, cast stone and stucco home for the Crosleys in 135 days. The home served as a "fish camp", used mostly in the winter, but staff would remain throughout the year. The home is reportedly the first residence built in Florida using steel-frame construction to provide protection against fires and hurricanes.</p><br>
<p>Significant elements of the house, which includes ten bedrooms and ten bathrooms, are its cross-axis design and a circular tower that contains a second-story, teak-lined study, dubbed the "Ship Room," with metal oculi. Other major features include double louvered and screened pocket doors and transoms to provide privacy while allowing the natural flow of sea breezes to cool the house through window and door grilles and rejas; an intercom system wired into the walls of the house and servant quarters; electrical wiring under the terra cotta floor tiles to provide electric power for lamps; chamfered, polychrome-stenciled pecky cypress beams; galleon carvings on the loggia; massive carved doors and woodwork (designed and installed by the Zoller Lumber Company); tiled patterns on the interior floors and the main staircase; plaster ornamentation; and stained glass of ochre and lavender, randomly placed in casement and French windows.</p><br>
<p>Crosley had a deep path dredged from the center of Sarasota Bay to a berth that accommodated his yachts, which included the 76 ft Argo, and the seaplane in which the Crosleys regularly used to fly to Sarasota from Cincinnati and to other locations. Tide level indicators were built into the walls of the berth, which remains as a current aspect of the property. A wind indicator, which moved around the ceiling of his second-story study, alerted Crosley to changes in wind conditions outdoors. It was driven by a weathervane atop the homes tower. The circular towers bank of windows provides a broad vista overlooking the bay.</p><br>
<p>The University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee now occupies a 28.4 acre parcel of the Seagate property along Tamiami Trail (US-41) that was not part of the 1982 nomination of the estate to the National Register that only indicated the existing buildings, but the land was added to the 1983 listing due to the significant civil engineering that Crosley designed for drainage, dredging and filling, marine structures, and a yacht basin containing a tide level gauge.</p><br>
<p>The Royse City Lodge No. 663 A.F. & A.M. is a historic Freemasonry lodge group and also the name of its historic building, at 102 S. Arch St. in Royse City, Texas. The building, built in 1925, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.</p><br>
<p>The lodge group first met in 1888.</p><br>
<p>The building has also served as the Royse City City Hall.</p><br>
<p>The importance of the building in the community is described emphatically in its NRHP nomination:The Lodge also has a long and respected history in Royse City, Texas. Every citizen of Royse City has utilized the building for some purpose, either fraternal or political. Many of the other buildings were destroyed in a devastating fire in the 1930s and this building, in its dual role, has served the needs of every citizen of Royse City for three-quarters of a century. No other building has greater significance to the community or has been occupied by the original owners since construction.</p><br>

<p>The Thomas Earl House was built as a single-family home located at 415 North Main Street in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. The house has been renovated to office space.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Thomas Earl was born in Ireland in 1810, emigrated to Canada in 1829, and finally arrived in the Ann Arbor area in 1833. He purchased 200 acres of land and began farming, and married Mary Ann Duncan, the sister of a neighbor, in 1834. In 1849 the Earls moved to Ann Arbor and entered the grocery business, living above the store on Main Street. In 1857 they bought the lot this house now stands on, and began building this house in about 1860.</p><br>
<p>Thomas Earl continued to operate his store, and live in this house, until his death in 1882.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>

<p>Thorstrand is a historic estate located in Madison, Wisconsin. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Originally 50 acres of cornfield, the land was purchased in the 1890s by Magnus Swenson (1854-1936), a Norwegian who immigrated to America at age 14, and made his way from working as a blacksmith&#39;s helper to a career as a chemical engineer, an internationally known inventor, businessman and humanitarian. Among his many achievements, Swenson patented over 200 machines and processes, built hydroelectric dams on the Wisconsin River, and founded the Norwegian-American Steamship Lines.</p><br>
<p>Magnus Swenson named the property “Thorstrand” (which means “Thor’s Beach” in Norwegian) after the place where he grew up in Norway. The road from University Ave through this land still bears the name Thorstrand Rd.</p><br>
<p>Magnus, his wife Annie and their four daughters, lived near the capitol square in Madison and would make regular trips to the property to picnic and plant a variety of trees, until 1922, when they had two Mediterranean Revival style homes built there, designed by Madison Architects Law and Law. One house was for Magnus and Annie Swenson (#2 Thorstrand Rd.), the other for his married daughter, Mary Swenson North (#1 Thorstrand Rd).</p><br>
<p>Over the years, some of the land was sold. After Mary Swenson North died in 1977, the remaining 15.29 acre estate was sold to the City of Madison in 1978, to be preserved as an addition to “Marshall Park”, for use as a passive recreation area. When it was learned that the homes would likely be demolished, they were declared Madison Historic Landmarks, protecting them from such a fate.</p><br>
<p>The homes were subsequently sold to individuals, but the land continues to be owned by the city and a portion associated with each home is leased to the homeowner through a 99-year land lease agreement. Mary Swenson Norths daughter, Mary North O’Hare, bought back her mothers home, and it has remained in the family since that time. In 2011, Mary North O’Hare died, and at the time of this writing, (September 2018) the home had just been put on the market for sale.</p><br>
<p>The Wakeley-Giles Commercial Building is a historic building at 117-119 E. Mifflin Street in Madison, Wisconsin. It was built circa 1869 as rental housing and was converted to commercial use in the 1880s. The building&#39;s name comes from its first two owners, attorney Charles Wakeley and H.H. Giles. In 1911, Norwegian American author and publisher Rasmus B. Anderson moved the offices of his newspaper Amerika into the building. Anderson founded the newspaper in 1898 after becoming an established scholar of Norwegian and Scandinavian history in order to spread his views to the Norwegian American community. The paper had a peak circulation of roughly 10,000 subscribers, placing it in the top ten Norwegian American newspapers nationally at the time. Anderson closed the newspaper and retired in 1922, and the building was used by the Kilgore Printing Company from then until the 1970s.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988 and on the State Register of Historic Places the following year.</p><br>
<p>Park Hill, also known as the Young-Faulkner House or Faulkner&#39;s Park Hill, is a -story Colonial Revival residence built in the late 1890s in Lincoln, Nebraska. Park Hill is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and is significant for its architectural features—including the house, a garage, and a bridge—as well as its landscape, nearly three and a half acres of land bordered by thick, mature plantings of trees.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Park Hill is a rare example of the Colonial Revival style in Lincoln. The style is embodied both in the architecture of the house as well as its placement within its large, formerly-suburban lot.</p><br>
<h3>Structures</h3><br>
<p>The site contains two period structures which contribute to its historicity: the house itself, built in 1896, and the garage, built sometime in the early 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The Park Hill house is a -story, wood-frame home with wooden clapboard siding. A further element contributing to this style is its prominent south entrance, enhanced by a pair of two-story bay windows, wide front steps, a second-story screened balcony, and a central dormer with a twin-peak roof.</p><br>
<p>A wide porch wraps around the south, west, and north sides of the building, and features a split-face brick wall as its railing and paired doric columns as supports. The first-story porch continues above into the second-story porch, lined with smaller paired columns and a wooden balustrade of simple, square-section spindles. The west side of the building is capped with a second, large dormer which sits in the center of the west pitch of the roof and is decorated with a broken scroll pediment, exemplary of the Colonial Revival style. A large, decorative plaque is centered between the two second-story windows on the west facade.</p><br>
<p>On the north facade there is a rear entrance, opposite the main, south entrance. The east facade features a -story wing—which may have been a preexisting farmhouse at the time of construction—with a gable roof within which sits a small, hipped-roof dormer on the south side. The east wing is framed by a shallower, single-columned porch along its south face.</p><br>
<p>The garage, which is dated to the early 20th century, is located in the northeast corner of the lot and features a hipped roof.</p><br>
<h3>Landscape</h3><br>
<p>The nearly-three-and-a-half acre lot of the property allow the house to retain its suburban setting despite being situated at a major intersection. The house sits on a hill on the north end of the lot, which slopes southward, and wide south and west lawns set it away from the busy intersection. Originally, the entrance to the house was in the southwest corner of the lot, however, this entrance was destroyed when the intersection of 40th and South Streets was widened. However, the former driveway is still visible due to its mature, double-row plantings of locust trees; stone curbs; small, period bridge with stone abutments and timber planks; and brick forecourt.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In March 1896, Lincoln real estate investor and former superintendent of the Lincoln Street Railway, Louis P. Young, inherited several acres of farmland southeast of Lincoln from his father-in-law, Martin Cook. Young sought to capitalize on the booming real estate business of the 1880s and 1890s by building a large home on the land. Based on physical evidence in the home, it is likely that Young built the newer house adjacent to Cook&#39;s preexisting farmhouse, which was later remodeled and connected to form the east wing of the home.</p><br>
<p>Young&#39;s fortunes soured after the Panic of 1893 and eventually the house was foreclosed upon before being bought by Dr. Albert O. Faulkner sometime between 1898 and 1901. Faulkner was a medical doctor as well as being the founder of the Modern Woodmen Accident Company. Faulkner was also a major investor in the local utilities (Lincoln Telephone Company), transit (Citizen Street Railway Co.), and real estate markets. Though the building was already completed when the Faulkner family purchased it, they were the first to live in the house long-term and as such, all major remodeling was done during their residency.</p><br>
<p>In 1911, Faulkner platted the 40 acres he had purchased as "Faulkners Park Hill." This platting created the large lot on which Park Hill is built as well as giving the land its name. In 1922, Faulkners son, E.J. Faulkner, built a house directly across South 41st St. from Park Hill at 4100 South St. The Faulkners maintained prominent presence in Lincoln academic and business circles for many years.</p><br>
