This final study of Castle Williams, Governors Island National Monument, provides a chronology of its physical evolution, describes its architectural elements, and identifies its character- defining features.

This report will focus on Aspet, the home of Augustus Saint- Gaudens, and on his studio, known as the Little Studio. The scope of this project as stated in its Project Agreement is limited to providing an update to four previously compiled historic structure reports for the main house (Aspet) and the Little Studio. The current project had two primary purposes. The first was to update the buildings' developmental and architectural history - i.e., to document changes to Aspet and the Little Studio from 1977 to the present, according to the Cultural Resource Management Guideline (NPS- 28),1 while organizing the data in a chronology format. This report includes a brief review of the architectural development of the structures prior to 1977, as provided in the previous reports. It will not restate physical descriptions as found in those reports. However, if a feature has been added, changed, or removed, such changes were documented. The second primary component of this report was the determination and evaluation of the structures' character- defining features (CDFs). Identifying the CDFs of each building will help guide the park's decisions when future projects that may impact the architectural appearance and integrity of Aspet and the Little Studio are planned and implemented.

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.

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.

The Mojave National Preserve Museum Management Plan identifies a series of collections management issues facing The Preserve and presents corresponding actions to address them.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has developed this publication, Site and Urban Design for Security: Guidance against Potential Terrorist Attacks, to provide information and design concepts for the protection of buildings and occupants, from site perimeters to the faces of buildings. The intended audience includes the design community of architects, landscape architects, engineers and other consultants working for private institutions, building owners and managers and state and local government officials concerned with site planning and design. This publication, FEMA 430, is one of a series that addresses security issues in high-population private-sector buildings. It is a companion to the Reference Manual to Mitigate Potential Terrorist Attacks Against Buildings (FEMA 426), which provides an understanding of the assessment of threats, hazards, vulnerability, and risk, and the design methods needed to improve protection of new and existing buildings and the people occupying them. Chapter 2 of FEMA 426 provides guidance on site layout and design and discusses architectural and engineering design considerations for risk mitigation, starting at the property line, including the orientation and placement of buildings on the site. This publication represents an expansion of Chapter 2 and focuses in more detail on information useful to the site security design team. In addition, this publication expands on Instruction Unit IX, "Site and Layout Design Guidance," in the Building Design for Homeland Security Training Course (FEMA E155) and also summarizes some of the concepts in Risk Assessment: A How-To Guide to Mitigate Potential Terrorist Attacks Against Buildings (FEMA 452). Some of the technical information on design against blast contained in the Primer for Design of Commercial Buildings to Mitigate Terrorist Attacks (FEMA 427) is also summarized. These publications are part of the FEMA Risk Management Series (RMS).

An Historic Resource Study of Fort Hunt Park

The current historic furnishings report describes the building and use of the structure and gives a plan for furnishing the living room based on documentary photographs of about 1915. The interpretive plan suggests restoring the bathroom to its original appearance (but not furnishing it beyond its original fixtures) and using the former bedroom as an exhibition space.

This Historic Structures Report is being prepared in order to document the existing conditions and provide guidance for the maintenance and preservation of the Fort Barry Balloon Hangar and the adjacent Motor Vehicle Sheds.

This book is written specifically to provide park managers with detailed information about the park's preservation history and lessons learned while saving and restoring the landscape and structures, interpreting the site for visitors, and addressing the demands of modern-day visitors and neighbors.

The combination of portrait statue, monumental support, and public lettering was considered emblematic of Roman public space even in antiquity. This book examines ancient Roman statues and their bases, tombs, dedicatory altars, and panels commemorating gifts of civic beneficence made by the Augustales, civic groups composed primarily of wealthy ex-slaves. Margaret L. Laird examines how these monuments functioned as protagonists in their built and social environments by focusing on archaeologically attested commissions made by the Augustales in Roman Italian towns. Integrating methodologies from art history, architectural history, social history, and epigraphy with archaeological and sociological theories of community, she considers how dedications and their accompanying inscriptions created webs of association and transformed places of display into sites of local history. Understanding how these objects functioned in ancient cities, the book argues, illuminates how ordinary Romans combined public lettering, honorific portraits, emperor worship, and civic philanthropy to express their communal identities.
