This historic structure report for the 1979 Station (1876 Type) with boat house and another for the 1925 Chatham Type Station was contracted by the National Park Service in anticipation of its impending move due to encroachment of the ocean and threat to the buildings and the site.

The following section briefly describes the National Park Service Geologic Resources Inventory and the regional geologic setting of George Washington Birthplace National Monument and Thomas Stone National Historic Site.

These studies explore significance and integrity of the cultural landscape and will guide the park in future rehabilitation efforts. This report is a combination of original research and synthesis of previous research and management documents. Long-term park staff members have guided the project, and the park's extensive archival collection has been tapped. The narrative landscape summary, synthesized from the archive's collection of documents, photographs, and plans, is the heart of this report. The following report, Part 1 of the CLR, presents a chronological site history of the property and its existing conditions in 2002 with both narrative text and illustrations. The Landscape Analysis chapter evaluates the significance and integrity using the terms and definitions of the National Register of Historic Places program.

This Draft General Management Plan / Environmental Impact Statement presents and analyzes four draft alternative future directions for the management and use of Minuteman Missile National Historic Site (the national historic site). Alternative 4, Cold War Symbols, is the National Park Service's preferred alternative. The potential environmental impacts of all alternatives have been identified and assessed.

This report is divided into six chapters. Chapter I is the "administrative data" section, which documents the significance of the house, National Park Service involvement, and proposed use and treatment. Chapter II is an "architectural history" that describes the evolution of the house and its site, from its original construction circa 1705 to the present time. Also described is an earlier Meriam house that is believed to have been located nearby on Lexington Road, which was also standing on April 19, 1775. Chapter III is an architectural description of the existing Meriam House, its outbuildings, and other buildings on the former Meriam farm. Chapter IV provides recommendations for the future treatment of the house. Chapter V contains the appendices, including a survey of existing maintenance conditions and recommendations for repairs. Chapter VI is a bibliography of sources.

This study develops themes to explain the monument's history and to show the center as one of several land uses over time. Organized chronologically, the themes within the study include early Idaho history, prewar settlement and development, racism and discrimination, camp life, and postwar settlement and land use. The role of the federal government is recurring and dominant within these themes. The government created the wartime relocation centers deep in the American interior on federal land. However, Minidoka reaches beyond a federal land use study. Studying the site within a broader agricultural, military, and ethnic history enriches and clarifies the story.

Hadrian's Wall is the largest, most spectacular and one of the most enigmatic historical monument in Britain. Nothing else approaches its vast scale: a land wall running 73 miles from east to west and a sea wall stretching at least 26 miles down the Cumbrian coast. Many of its forts are as large as Britain's most formidable medieval castles, and the wide ditch dug to the south of the Wall, the vallum, is larger than any surviving prehistoric earthwork. Built in a ten-year period by more than 30,000 soldiers and labourers at the behest of an extraordinary emperor, the Wall consisted of more than 24 million stones, giving it a mass greater than all the Egyptian pyramids put together. At least a million people visit Hadrian's Wall each year and it has been designated a World Heritage Site. In this book, based on literary and historical sources as well as the latest archaeological research, Alistair Moffat considers who built the Wall, how it was built, why it was built and how it affected the native peoples who lived in its mighty shadow. The result is a unique and fascinating insight into one of the Wonders of the Ancient World.

The purpose of this report is to document the construction history of the Maurice Stephens House located at Valley Forge National Historical Park, in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
