<p>Irving School is a former school building in Duluth, Minnesota, United States. It operated as a school from its construction in 1895 until 1982, when it was closed due to declining enrollment. Upon closing it underwent adaptive reuse as an apartment building. In 1992 the Irving School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its local significance in the themes of architecture and education. It was nominated for its early Renaissance Revival design by Palmer, Hall, & Hunt and for its association with the expansion and evolution of the Duluth school system.</p><br>
<p>Wild Goose Farm is a 173 acre farm complex near Shepherdstown, West Virginia, established in the early 19th century. The farm includes a large, irregularly-arranged main house, a Pennsylvania-style bank barn, a tenant house, and outbuildings including a spring house, smoke house, ice house, corn crib, water tower and a decorative pavilion.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The complex is approached through metal gates along a tree-lined lane bordered by a stone wall. The main house has an unbalanced composition, unusual for its time, that anticipates late-19th century compositions. The wood-framed house has a two-story square-columned portico on the east elevation, with a Chippendale-styled balustrade on the second level spanning three of five bays. There are six columns and five dormers, on an ashlar-cut stone base. Three large brick chimneys project from the long roof ridge through the metal roofing material. This elevation is not the main entrance of the house, which is on the south side. A cantilevered oriel bay projects on the first level of the north side next to the east portico. The overall composition of the 9,000 ft&sup2; house is reminiscent of architecture in New Orleans, where Rezin Shepherd had lived. The other sides of the house have complex elevations reflecting the house&#39;s history of additions and alterations into the 20th century, all on rubble stone foundations.</p><br>
<p>The main entrance is at the east end of the south elevation, with a Greek Revival treatment opening into a reception and stair hall along the east wing, with an opening on the east side into the east wing ballroom or parlor. A dining room is on the west side of the hall, followed by a billiard room and a series of kitchen spaces. The kitchen area appears to be the oldest section of the house. The upstairs are divided into bedrooms that largely reflect the original layout of the house. The third floor was finished in the early 20th century, when the dormers were added.</p><br>
<p>The complex includes several notable outbuildings, including a springhouse in the rough form of a Greek temple. Built about 1845, the building is set into the ground, surrounded by stone retaining walls. The springhouse itself is constructed of ashlar stone masonry, with a projecting portico supported by square columns. The interior is divided into three spaces, with a channel running through for the spring water.</p><br>
<p>Other contributing buildings include a stone building (c. 1845) believed to be an office, an octagonal pagoda-like frame "sentry station" (c. 1880), believed to be a place for a timekeeper, a brick ice house (c. 1911), a stone pump house (c. 1911), a stone smokehouse (c. 1845), a six-bay carriage shed (c. 1845), and a tenant house (c. 1880).</p><br>
<p>The complex includes several agricultural buildings, including a large Pennsylvania bank barn, built between 1842 and 1845. The lowest level of the barn features unusually fine stone masonry, with a stone-arched opening leading out of the stone-walled barnyard. Other buildings include a wood-frame poultry house (c. 1880), and a frame corn crib (c. 1880). The property includes an unusual number of fitted and finished stone walls.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Wild Goose property was subdivided from a larger tract in the early 19th century, when John Stipp sold 121 acre to his son George. Passing through two more owners, the property was purchased by Van Swearingen, owner of the adjoining River View farm, in 1829. In 1838 Swearingens heirs sold much of the land to Charles M. Shepherd. The Shepherd family, descended from Abraham Shepherd, founder of Shepherdstown, owned much of the land in the area. Rezin Davis Shepherd was the eldest son of Abraham, who had spent much of his life as a merchant in New Orleans. Henry Shepherd, the next son, operated a livestock breeding operation at Springwood near Shepherdstown, in partnership with Rezin. Youngest son Charles managed the Shepherd properties in Virginia. Rezin moved back to West Virginia in the early 1840s, having bought Charless assets, including land, livestock and slaves. By 1846, Rezin had built a new house on the Wild Goose tract, presumed to be the present manor house. The estate reached about 700 acre in size by the time Rezin Shepherd entered retirement at Wild Goose, around 1850. Rezin died in 1865 at 80. Rezin&#39;s daughter Ellen (Brooks) and her two sons Peter Brooks and Shepherd Brooks inherited the property. In 1866 Shepherd bought the entire property and established it as Wild Goose Farm. In 1871 Shepherd Brooks sold the farm to Henry Shepherd, Jr. for $30,000. Henry Jr. moved to the farm in 1872.</p><br>
<p>Henry Shepherd died in 1891, deeding the farm to four sons. The three younger sons sold their shares to eldest son Rezin Davis Shepherd for $24,531, for a total property value of $38,000. The second Rezin D. Shepherd was a stage actor, using the stage name of R.D. McLean. When McLean became involved in movies in the 20th century, he sold the 185 acre core of Wild Goose to Edwin S. Jarrett for $36,000 in 1911.</p><br>
<p>Jarrett used the property primarily as a retreat, with a tenant farmer. During Jarrett&#39;s ownership, he added Colonial Revival features to the house and raised the roof of the east wing to furnish a third floor, adding the colonnaded porch and opening the lower level of the east wing into a single ballroom. Jarrett died in 1940, after which the property changed hands several times. It was consistently used as a country retreat by successive owners, including NASA engineer Robert Moss during the 1960s, and by West Virginia governor Gaston Caperton from 1998.</p><br>
<p>Wild Goose Farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 20, 2018.</p><br>
<p>The Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District Office in Nampa, Idaho, is a 1-story brick and concrete building designed by Tourtellotte and Hummel and completed in 1919. The building features tall, narrow window fenestrations topped by large, vertical keystones with sidestones. Most of the windows have been replaced by a flat stucco surface painted brilliant white. The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Irrigation districts in Idaho began forming toward the end of the 19th century, and by 1903 Idaho counted four irrigation districts: Weiser in Washington County, Pioneer in Canyon County, New Sweden in Bingham County, and Oneida in Oneida County. Montpelier Irrigation District was formed in Bear Lake County later in 1903, and farmers in Meridian held meetings to establish their own irrigation district.</p><br>
<p>In 1904 the Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District was formed in Meridian by farmers in Canyon and Ada Counties, and one of the organization&#39;s first actions was to purchase and expand the Ridenbaugh Canal, begun in 1878 by William T. Ridenbaugh to irrigate a large ranch owned by his uncle, William B. Morris. By 1913 the Ridenbaugh Canal had been expanded from an original length of six miles to nearly 40 miles, and it carried water to more than 1000 customers, including over 600 farms.</p><br>
<p>Early in 1919 the district moved its headquarters from Meridian to Nampa, and offices were opened on the second floor of Nampa City Hall. (Although listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the 1910 City Hall was demolished in 1991.) After two months at City Hall, the district announced plans to build its own office in Nampa. The Nampa and Meridian Irrigation District Office became occupied in April 1920.</p><br>
<p>The Center Road – Tittabawassee River Bridge was a bridge carrying Center Road over the Tittabawassee River in James Township, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1926, the Michigan State Highway Department designed this bridge located on the Tittabawassee River. The department contracted with Willits Brothers Construction Co. of Bay City. Willits completed the bridge in 1927, using a steel superstructure constructed by the American Bridge Company. The bridge functioned in place until the 21st century. Although the bridge was still functional, the bridge was demolished in November 2009.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Center Road Bridge was a multiple-span bridge constructed of concrete and steel. The bridge had five steel stringer spans, each 65 feet long. Each span contained nine lines of rolled I-beams supported by concrete abutments and piers. The outside webs of the spandrel stringers were encased in concrete. Atop the stringers was a concrete deck with standard concrete guardrails on each side, having classical fluted balusters and paneled bulkheads.</p><br>
<p>The Mower Road – Cole Drain Bridge is a bridge carrying Mower Road over the Cole Drain in Spaulding Township, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. It is likely the longest straight chord through girder still extant on public roads.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Mower Road – Cole Drain Bridge was designed by the Michigan State Highway Department in 1920. The department contracted with Denton and Johnson of Saginaw, who constructed it that year. The bridge has stayed in service until the present.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Mower Road – Cole Drain Bridge is a three-span concrete structure, consisting of three concrete through girder spans. The spans are supported by concrete abutments and piers with bullnosed cutwaters. The bridge contains straight 45-foot girders, which form the guardrails on either side of the concrete slab deck. Rectangular recessed panels on the exterior of the girders provide a minimal decoration. Bronze "State Reward Bridge" plates are attached to each girder.</p><br>
<p>The United States Post Office - Nampa Main, also known as the Herbert A. Littleton Postal Station, in Nampa, Idaho, is a two-story Neoclassical building completed in 1931. James A. Wetmore was the supervising architect. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1922 the Nampa Post Office rented facilities at the First National Bank, and a permanent post office was constructed next to the bank in 1930 by Boise contractor J.O. Jordan & Sons. The building was completed June 21, 1931.</p><br>
<p>An arsonist caused fire damage to the building in 1973.</p><br>
<p>The building was named in 2009 for Nampa resident Herbert A. Littleton, a Medal of Honor recipient who died in the Korean War.</p><br>
<p>The Gugel Bridge, also known as the Beyer Road – Cass River Bridge, is a bridge carrying Beyer Road over the Cass River in Frankenmuth Township, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. It is the only remaining example in Michigan of a bridge with both a pony truss span and a main through truss span.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>This bridge was originally located where Dixie Highway crosses the Cass River, about two miles west of the present location. This section of Dixie Highway was originally established as a turnpike in the 1830s, and the first bridge over the Cass River was constructed at that time. The first bridge was replaced by a second in 1847. It is likely that other replacement bridges were constructed in subsequent decades, but there is no record of either construction materials or construction dates. In 1904, however, the Bridgeport Township Board proposed to replace the bridge existing at that time with an iron bridge designed by the Joliet Bridge and Iron Company to do so. Township voters approved, and the township contracted Joliet to construct the bridge. Construction began almost immediately, and the bridge was likely in place in late 1904 or early 1905.</p><br>
<p>Dixie Highway was a state trunkline, and with the explosion of automobile traffic at the beginning of the 20th century, the Cass River bridge soon became outmoded. In 1919/20 the State of Michigan replaced it with a larger truss bridge (which was in turn replaced in 1931). The 1904 bridge was moved to its current location at the Beyer Road crossing of the Cass River. It seems likely that there was no previous bridge at this location, and it appears that the section of Beyer Road near the bridge location was constructed at the same time. The bridge acquired the name of Christian Gugel, who was Frankenmuth Township Supervisor and a member of the Saginaw County Board of Supervisors at the time. The new section of Beyer Road ran at least partially through his property.</p><br>
<p>The bridge remained open to traffic until 1976, when it was closed. The deck subsequently deteriorated.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Gugel Bridge is a two span Pratt truss bridge, with a Pratt through truss span of 144 feet and a Pratt pony truss span of</p><br>
<p>60 feet, for a total bridge length of 204 feet. The through truss span sits on a concrete abutment on the south side of the river and a concrete pier near the north side of the river. The pony truss extends from the concrete pier to a concrete abutment on the north shore of the river. The bridge is located about fifteen feet above the river&#39;s surface.</p><br>
<p>The truss structure is 17 feet wide, with a vertical clearance of about 20 feet. The main truss structure contains eight panels separated by vertical posts made from two parallel channels with crossed-bracing connecting them. The upper chords of the span are made from two channels covered with plating. The understructure supporting the deck is made of large I-beams between the vertical posts with smaller length-wise steel stringers under the deck. Lattice guard rails are on each side of the main through truss, but are not present on the pony truss. A plaque on each end gives the date of construction: 1904.</p><br>
<p>The E. H. Dewey Stores in Nampa, Idaho, is the remnant of an L-shape building that once surrounded the Farmers and Merchants Bank at the corner of 11th Avenue and 1st Street. The L-shape was designed to contain two stores in each wing. The 1-story, stone and brick building was designed by Tourtellotte and Hummel and constructed in 1919, and it reveals a restrained Neoclassical architecture common in commercial buildings of the early 20th century. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Farmers and Merchants Bank building was constructed in 1919, and a major stockholder and bondholder in the bank was Edward H. Dewey, a Nampa financier with farming and mining interests in Idaho. Dewey served as Nampa mayor 1908–1912. Dewey owned lots adjacent to the corner bank, and in 1919 he developed the property into an L-shape commercial space with four storefronts to surround the bank. Part of the building facing 11th Avenue was later demolished, but frontage on 1st Street remains with little alteration.</p><br>
<p>The Dewey Building, originally known as the Purdum Building, was a drygoods store and later the location of The Idaho Press-Tribune. After the Nampa Public Library renovated the Farmers and Merchants Bank building in 1966, the adjacent Dewey Building became part of the library in 1985. When the library relocated to its current building, the Dewey Building was refitted for commercial space.</p><br>
<p>The Nampa Department Store in Nampa, Idaho, is a 2-story, brick and stone commercial building designed by Tourtellotte and Hummel and completed in 1910. A 3-story building for the site had been ordered by Falk Mercantile Company, but when the site was developed, Leo Falk along with investor E.H. Dewey scaled back the design and opened the Nampa Department Store, built by contractor G.H. Rush. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The store later was described as one of the most modern stores in Idaho. In 1919 the store expanded into an adjacent annex constructed by Boise contractor O.W. Allen.</p><br>
<p>The Mancos Opera House, at 136 W. Grand Ave. in Mancos, Colorado, was built in 1910. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. It has also been known as Checkerboard Hall.</p><br>
<p>It is a three-story building which was built and owned by A.J. Ames and George Woods. It is prominent on Grand Avenue, the main street of Mancos. It and the Bauer Bank Building, also NRHP-listed, "are among the largest, intact commercial buildings in Mancos and in Montezuma County.</p><br>
<p>On March 10, 1910, A.J. Ames and George D. Woods announced in the and Tribune (the "Times") their intention to build the Mancos Opera House Block to house Woods’ drug store and the Mancos Meat and Grocery Co. on the ground floor, with an Opera Hall on the second floor. Ames and Woods engaged architect W.L. Morse to design the building. W.L. Morse and George Bauer were hired as the contractors for the construction.</p><br>
<p>On June 3, 1910, Woods and Ames announced in the Times that they intended to construct the building out of locally produced brick to “keep the money at home." On July 29, the Times reported that the brick kiln had been completed, and that 200,000 bricks would be fired. Of those, 100,000 of which would be used for the Opera House, the rest to be used in other projects. By November 11, 1910, the building had progressed to the point that George Woods printed an announcement in the Times that his drug store would hold its opening on Thanksgiving Day, November 24, 1910 and welcomed the town to the “Big Surprise Party." On December 10, 1910, the Times reported that the auditorium level of the building had been finished, Montezuma County’s first moving picture machine installed, curtains hung, and all was ready for use. On December 16, 1910, The Mancos Meat Grocery Co., Theodore Parker, Proprietor, advertised that they were “Dealer in all kinds of fresh and cured meats, Fruit, Farm Produce, Butter, Eggs, etc.”</p><br>
<p>For many years high school graduations were held in the hall as well as traveling road shows and square. The first moving picture show in Montezuma County was shown in the opera house and in the 1920s, silent movies were held on Saturday nights. After the movie, the ushers removed the seats and a public dance was held. The hall became known as the "" because of the checkerboard pattern painted on the floor with numbers in the center of the squares. At the public dances, when the band stopped playing, a number was called and the couple standing on that number won a prize. The music for the dances was usually furnished by local musicians such as the six member Goff family orchestra or the band called the Slumber Wreckers.</p><br>
<p>The opera house had several celebrities perform on the stage. In 1942, singer Jaye P. Morgan (later J.P. Morgan) whose parents were onetime residents of Mancos, gave a performance. In 1965, Diane Hall, later known as Diane Keaton, played the lead in Little Mary Sunshine on the opera house stage. Diane was one of fourteen southern California college students who came to Mancos to revive the "mellerdramer" during the summer in the opera house. This was the last performance held in the opera house.</p><br>
<p>in 1953, the first floor became the headquarters for the local post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. The large display windows were bricked up leaving entry doors in each bay flanked by small rectangular windows. The original first floor facade of display windows with clerestories and recessed entrances, was bricked up in 1958. The VFW used the first floor as their meeting space, as well as for community uses. In the 1960s and 1970s, the VFW provided space on the first floor for the fledgling collections of the and the Historical Museum.</p><br>
<p>In 1985, plans were made by the townspeople and the VFW for the restoration of the opera house. A Theater Renovation Committee was established to seek and apply for funds and grants and preliminary plans and estimates were prepared.</p><br>
<p>In 2002, when the building was in danger of collapsing, The Colorado Historical Fund financed an expensive remodel of the building, including the installation of stabilizing beams under some of the balconies in the theater and repairs to the roof. Because the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and had been a recipient of Historical Fund money, the building’s exterior was not changed.</p><br>
<p>In 2017, Philip and Linda Walters began the task of renovating the opera house.</p><br>
<p>Both Philip and Linda Walters were longtime preservationists. Philip was involved with the 2002 project to rehabilitate the opera house. Linda was a member of the Mancos Valley Historical Society and had helped restore the Mancos Common Press.</p><br>
<p>In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic and as renovations continued, the Mancos Opera House served as the headquarters for filming a TV-pilot for "Badwater," scripted by Cortez novelist Chuck (C. Joseph) Greaves and directed by Felíx Enríquez Alcalá (“ER,” “Criminal Minds,” “The Good Wife” and “Breaking Bad.”)</p><br>
<p>In 2022,. awarded Philip and Linda Walters with the Dana Crawford and Alpine Bank State Honor Award for their preservation work.</p><br>
<p>Debs Consolidated School, also called District School No. 132, is a historic rural schoolhouse in Debs, Beltrami County, Minnesota United States. The school held classes for both upper and lower grades until the 1940s. The upper grade students were then transported to a high school in nearby Bemidji, Minnesota. The school continued to hold classes for lower grades until 1970. It was then purchased by a private individual and remodeled into a summer home. Its nomination to the National Register of Historic Places noted its unusual wooden Neoclassical façade.</p><br>
<p>The Wrightsman House , at 209 Bauer Avenue in Mancos, Colorado, was built in 1903 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, alongside three contributing buildings.</p><br>
<p>Wrightsman is a two-and-a-half-storey eclectic stone house amidst a wide area of lawn and mature trees. It is built of quarried sandstone from foothills to the southwest of Mancos which were also used in the Mancos High School (1909).</p><br>
<p>Built as a residence and hospital, a hotel by 1917 and converted to a bed and breakfast in 1995, it shares the Historic Place designation with a carriage house and outhouse.</p><br>
<p>The T.J. Jones Apartments in Boise, Idaho, is a 2-story, brick and stone building originally designed in 1904 by Tourtellotte & Co. and expanded in 1911 by Tourtellotte and Hummel. The structure features a prominent Queen Anne corner turret, but Renaissance Revival characteristics also were discovered in preparation for adding the building to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The original design included 12 2-story apartments, and after the building was expanded in 1911, it contained 17 2-story apartments. The foundation and load bearing walls were designed for a 4-story building to be completed at a future date, but the building has remained a 2-story structure.</p><br>
<h2>Thomas J. Jones</h2><br>
<p>Thomas J. Jones was an attorney who moved from Nebraska and settled in Boise City in 1890. Jones was active in the local populist movement, and he owned mining interests in Idaho.</p><br>
<p>The Union Block and Montandon Buildings in Boise, Idaho, are 2-story commercial buildings with rustic sandstone facades. The Romanesque Revival Union Block was designed by John E. Tourtellotte and constructed in 1901, and the Renaissance Revival Montandon Building was designed by J.W. Smith and constructed in 1908. Also known as the Fidelity-Union Block, the buildings were added to the National Register of Historic Places  in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Union Block</h2><br>
<p>The Union Block a 2-story, brick and sandstone commercial building with 126-ft frontage on Idaho St and 120-ft depth between Idaho and Bannock Sts, constructed by contractors Walker & Jensen in 1901. The building includes space for five storefronts, and the second floor was designed for 21 offices and for a 55-ft by 120-ft meeting room and music hall.</p><br>
<p>Original commercial tenants of the building included the O.K. Grocery Co., Beal Furniture, Regan Mercantile Co., and Idaho Hardware & Plumbing Company which expanded into the Union Block from their adjoining building. The music hall was leased by Professor Christensen&#39;s Dance Academy.</p><br>
<h2>Montandon Building</h2><br>
<p>The Montandon Building is a 2-story, brick and sandstone commercial building designed by J.W. Smith and completed in 1908. August F. Montandon had owned the northeast corner lot at N 8th St and W Idaho St since 1899, and Montandon buildings were demolished to build the new Montandon Building, constructed to house the Anderson-Blomquist Department Store, later known as George A. Anderson & Co. The Montandon Building is a combination of two commercial buildings, the corner building constructed in 1908 and an earlier 2-story building on Idaho St that was the location of Idaho Hardware & Plumbing Co. A second floor was added to the hardware building in 1901 in order that the facade more closely conform to that of the Union Block. The NRHP nomination form indicates that the second floor was added in 1908.</p><br>
<p>During construction of the Union Block, Montandons planning for the Eighth and Idaho corner included either a 3-story or a 4-story building that conformed in style to the 2-story Union Block design. In August, 1901, Montandon had settled on a 3-story building, and he contracted for delivery of 500,000 bricks. Montandons plans changed again before 1902, and he finally constructed 1-story, wood-frame buildings with a sandstone facade at the Eighth and Idaho corner, adjacent to Idaho Hardware & Plumbing Co. Montandon&#39;s wood-frame buildings were demolished in 1908 prior to excavating the corner for the Montandon Building.</p><br>
<p>The Telephone Building on Main St in Boise was briefly known as the Montandon Building in 1900. Montandon had purchased property adjacent to the Rocky Mountain Bell Telephone Building, built in 1899, and in 1900 he constructed an adjoining building and combined both buildings behind a common facade of finished sandstone.</p><br>
<p>The Roethke Houses are two side-by-side single family homes located at 1759 and 1805 Gratiot Avenue in Saginaw, Michigan. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In the mid-1800s, Wilhelm Roethke served as the head forester on the estate of Otto von Bismarck&#39;s sister in Pomerania. He resigned in 1870 and move to Berlin, where he established a flower shop. In 1872 or 1873 he emigrated to the United States, along with his wife Bertha and their three sons, Emil, Carl, and Otto. Roethke settled in Saginaw, where he opened a market garden and florist shop. In 1882, he purchased the 20-acre parcel where these houses now stand, and constructed a series of greenhouses to support the business. By 1901, the business was much expanded, and Carl and Otto were running it. The entire family lived together on their property.</p><br>
<p>In 1904, Carl Roethke constructed a fieldstone-walled house (now 1759 Gratiot) near the greenhouses and moved into it with his family. Otto Roethke followed suit in 1911, constructing a hip-roof Colonial house (now 1805 Gratiot) for his family next to his brothers house. The elder Roethke died in 1911, leaving the florist business to Otto and Carl. By this time it was a large operation, employing 25 people. The brothers ran it until 1922, when Ottos heath began to fail. Carl bought out his brother, but died himself the next year, leaving his widow Margaret to run the business. The firm lasted into the 21st century.</p><br>
<p>The Otto Roethke house at 1801 Gratiot is particularly notable as the childhood home of Otto&#39;s son, poet Theodore Roethke. He lived in the house from 1911, when it was constructed, until he entered the University of Michigan in 1925.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Roethke Houses are located side by side at 1759 and 1805 Gratiot Avenue, respectively.</p><br>
<h3>Carl Roethke House</h3><br>
<p>The Carl Roethke House is a one-and-one-half-story gable-front building. The first floor is covered with uncoursed cobblestones; the gables on the second story are covered with patterned wood shingles. The house has two porches: one at the front and one at the rear. A gable</p><br>
<p>dormer with flaring eaves is located on the west slope of the roof, with a three-sided bay window projecting below on the house&#39;s first floor. On the east side is a two-story bay, with a gable roof with flaring eaves above and an entrance on the first floor below.</p><br>
<p>The windows inf the house are asymmetrically placed. On the first floor, the windows and doors are set in segmentally arched frames. On the second floor, a row of three, single-pane windows separated by Tuscan columns is located in the peak of the front gable, above a pair of double-hung, one-over-one windows. Four multi-light windows in a small dormer are behind the gable roof of the two-story bay.</p><br>
<h3>Otto Roethke House</h3><br>
<p>The Otto Roethke House is a two-story hip-roof Colonial Revival structure with symmetrical, central entrance facade and clapboarded-covered walls. It has wide boxed eaves and a brick-clad foundation. On the front facade, a single hipped-roof dormer is located in the center of the roof. A porch on the first floor with Tuscan columns runs almost the entire width of the house. At the rear is a two-story enclosed porch topped with a hip roof. The overhanging second story of the porch is supported by three thin metal posts. The windows in the house are all single or paired one-over-one rectangular units, save for three single-light windows set in a small bay on one side of the house.</p><br>
<p>The Saginaw Armory is a former National Guard installation located at 234 South Water Street in Saginaw, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1903, the passage of the Dick Act spurred the state of Michigan to revamp its laws covering the state National Guard. By 1907, the new laws in place provided a fund for the construction local armories for the use of National Guard units. In 1908, Saginaw received $20,000 of the available $40,000 in state monies toward the construction of a building to house the local National Guard and Naval Brigade. The city hired architect William T. Cooper to design a building, and approved the expenditure af an additional $10,000 to cover additional construction costs.

Moore, in 1905 upon the founding of the town of Artesia. Erected by an itinerant building contractor, A. F. Martin, the house is a merging of that tendency in folk architecture to treat cobblestone as a complete wall covering, with holdovers of textural exuberance from the Queen Anne Style, and with the fashion of giving emphasis to natural materials such as cobblestone in the California Bungalow Style.</p><br>

<p>The C.H. Waymire Building in Boise, Idaho, is a 2-story, cement block structure designed by Tourtellotte & Co. and constructed in 1909. The building housed Waymire Grocery, a neighborhood market.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Clarence H. Waymire arrived in Boise in 1884 and operated a dairy under the name of Waymire & Brown. In 1892 Waymire purchased his partner&#39;s share of the business. In 1902 Waymire constructed a 2-story, wood-frame grocery store at the southwest corner of 13th and Eastman Streets, and in 1909 the building was moved to the rear of the lot and turned to face Eastman Street, enabling the store to function during construction of the C.H. Waymire Building at the corner. At the time, the Idaho Statesman noted that the building was the first large store in Boise to be constructed of cement blocks.</p><br>
<p>The C.H. Waymire Building included a post office and was a local polling place during elections. Waymire sold his grocery business in 1914, but he continued to make improvements to that and to other buildings, and the west side of 13th street between Alturas and Eastman Streets became known as the Waymire Block.</p><br>
<p>The La Puente Historic District, near Los Ojos, New Mexico, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<p>According to its NRHP nomination,The village of La Puente is one of the best-preserved examples of a linear village—the most common village type of Hispanic settlement in New Mexico in the nineteenth century. Although the houses respond to Anglo-American attitudes by being free-standing, set back from and facing the street with ornamented porches, they are built of traditional Hispanic materials and most are composed of long files of self-contained rooms. The private courtyard spaces defined by the houses, barns and fences also continue the Hispanic tradition of combining the house and farm buildings in one unit, sometimes called the casa- corral. Among the outbuildings are some of the most outstanding and best-preserved examples of Hispanic barns in New Mexico.</p><br>
<p>It is an area 18 acre in size. It includes all buildings on both sides of the main road in La Puente from, on the east, the drop-off from the second plateau to the first plateau, to, on the west, the church. The district included 37 contributing buildings and two contributing sites.</p><br>

<p>The William Ingersoll Estate is a former summer home complex on an island in Sand Point Lake in the USA state of Minnesota, in what is now Voyageurs National Park. William P. Ingersoll  was a wealthy philanthropist from Canton, Illinois. He purchased the island property in 1927, when the Boundary Waters region had become a wilderness vacation destination for adventurous upper-class Midwesterners. The following year he installed a mail-order cabin from the E. F. Hodgson Company of Massachusetts, which specialized in prefabricated buildings. Ingersoll usually spent four months of the year on his island and continued to develop the property until he sold it in 1962 at the age of 77. In 2011 the estate was listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its local significance in the themes of architecture and entertainment/recreation. It was nominated as an example of the area&#39;s upper-class summer homes and as a rare intact example of a E. F. Hodgson Company kit house.</p><br>
<p>The main cabin collapsed in 2014 and was subsequently removed by the National Park Service, with the hope of reconstructing it if funding ever became available.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The National Park Service categorized the Ingersoll Estate as a historic district with six contributing properties. The first was the 1928 main cabin, which has now collapsed and been removed. The second is another prefabricated cabin with six rooms, built for Ingersoll&#39;s friend and frequent guest Robert B. Chiperfield, a long-serving congressman from Canton. Third and fourth are a generator shed built circa 1952 and a boathouse. Fifth is a workshop and storage shed with additions for an icehouse, sauna, and fish cleaning station. The sixth contributing property is the cultural landscape itself, which comprises garden beds, stone paths, fencing, a bird house, and the careful siting of the buildings to maximize lake views and maintain privacy.</p><br>
<p>The Automatic Electric Company Building, located at 1000 W. Van Buren Street in Chicago, Illinois, is the original headquarters of the Automatic Electric Company. The company developed and popularized the automatic telephone exchange in the early 20th century. Inventor Almon Strowger had begun producing and selling automatic switches in the 1890s, but never had a permanent factory; when he helped form the Automatic Electric Company in 1901, the company constructed the building on Van Buren as a factory and headquarters. As Illinois Bell, the largest telephone company in Chicago, did not wish to contract with them, the company grew its market by selling to smaller independent telephone companies in the city. Over the next two decades, it expanded to national and then international customers, and after an employee strike in 1919 the Bell System ultimately became a customer as well. The company used the building as its headquarters until 1957, when it moved to a complex in Northlake.</p><br>
<p>The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 20, 2002.</p><br>
