District of Columbia

  • Martin Luther King Library. This glass and steel frame D.C. Public Library building at 9th and G Streets (1969-72) is the only structure in the city designed by Mies van der Rohe.
  • HUD Headquarters. Designed by world-renowned modernist architect, Marcel Breuer, the curvilinear concrete frame HUD building (1963-68) presented a radical departure for government office building design at the time. Its high quality design set a new standard for public buildings.
  • Embassies of Mexico, Spain, Norway, and Vatican. These buildings are among many Beaux Arts mansions that distinguish two “Embassy Row” boulevards in Washington—16th Street and Massachusetts Avenue. The Spanish and Mexican embassies were designed by George Oakley Totten for Mrs. Mary Henderson as part of her plan to develop 16th Street as an embassy-lined Avenue of the Presidents. The Norwegian and Vatican embassies create a grand entry opposite the main gate to the Naval Observatory grounds and Vice President’s residence.
  • American University (1898). As desired by the university’s founder, John Fletcher Hurst, the American University campus was designed in a formal manner and planned with classically inspired buildings that Hurst felt extended the L’Enfant plan to the outlying regions of the District. Hurst Hall (1898), the oldest campus building, epitomizes this classically inspired design aesthetic.
  • Catholic University campus buildings
  • Howard University Divinity School
  • National Shrine of Immaculate Conception (1919-1927). America’s largest Roman Catholic Church was designed in a neo-Byzantine style that is characterized by a highly decorative gold-gilted dome, a Latin cross plan, and a soaring bell tower.

The headquarters campus of this scientific institution, founded in 1904 to map the geomagnetic field of the earth and noted for fundamental discoveries in the field of nuclear physics, includes both an original building by noted architect Waddy Wood and a specialized building housing its Van de Graaf generator.
  • National Geographic Society headquarters (1912, 1931, 1961). The National Geographic Society headquarters occupies four distinct buildings that span the block of M Street between 16th and 17th Streets, N.W. The most recent building, constructed in 1961, is a sleek modern office building designed by local architect Edward Durrell Stone, most well known for his design of the Kennedy Center.
  • Southern Railway Building (1928). The Southern Railway Building was constructed at 920 15th Street after the federal government purchased the company’s old building and demolished it for construction of the Federal Triangle. The building, with its character-defining stepped back rooftop floors, was designed by prominent architect Waddy Wood and was the long-time headquarters of the railroad.
  • Barr Building (1926). The Barr Building on 17th Street N.W. was designed by Washington architect B. Stanley Simmons and is one of three nearby, pre-Depression, commercial Gothic office buildings (the other two being the Tower building and the Denrike Building) with Art Deco influences. The 11-story building overlooking Farragut Square was described in the 1927 Board of Trade’s, Book of Washington as “Washington’s Most Beautiful Office Building.”
  • Washington Gas Building (1941). The Washington Gas Building at 11th and H Streets, N.W. was constructed in 1941 as the company’s 12-story flag ship office building complete with gas lit lamps. Designed by native Washingtonian, architect Leon Chatelain, the building reflects a stripped classical style of architecture reflective of the War period. The building was a source of pride for the Gas Company that published a promotional booklet celebrating the company and its building.
  • Shoreham Hotel (1930)
  • National Theater. The historic “Theater of the Presidents” established in 1835 is perhaps Washington’s oldest cultural institution. Its current 1920s theater is the latest in a series of homes built on the same Pennsylvania Avenue site.

Eastern High was constructed at the eastern edge of Capitol Hill as the growing middle class neighborhood continued to push further east of the Capitol building during the 20th century.
  • McKinley High (1926-28), Roosevelt High (1932), many other public schools
  • Anacostia Park. Conceived as an integral part of the 1902 McMillan Plan for Washington, this riverside park created from reclaimed mud flats was an extraordinary accomplishment of the Army Corps of Engineers. The park was the site of the Bonus Army encampment after World War I and is associated with desegregation struggles in the District.
  • Government Printing Office (1899-1904; 1938-40). The original (1899) Government Printing Office building on North Capitol Street is a large and imposing brick building that historically served as one of the city’s largest employers. The location of the building as a center of employment on North Capitol Street helped encourage the residential growth of adjacent neighborhoods in both northeast and northwest Washington. GPO workers seeking to live near their place of employment either rented or purchased new speculatively built row houses in the Near northeast neighborhood, Capitol Hill, the East End and Mount Vernon Square areas of the city.

Indiana

  • Indiana's round barns. The Echterling Farm includes two round barns, and a circular plan house, as well as numerous historic farm buildings. Built in 1912 by a German immigrant family, this entire one-of-a-kind farmstead is not listed on the National Register.
    Hanover Township, Lake County
  • The Gary Bathing Beach Pavilion in Marquette Park is on the National Register. However, the surrounding park, Marquette Park, is not listed. This man-made historic landscape is recognized by many for its history. Part of the storied past of this site includes Pere Marquette’s explorations, and later, the exploits of Octave Chanute and his internationally famous glider flights from the dunes here. The park includes significant bronze sculpture work, a pavilion by famous Chicago - Prairie School architect George Maher, and beautiful man-made lagoons.
    Gary, Lake County
  • The Upp Wark Mounds (12Pr17-27). The Mounds are a rare large mound group, the best preserved group of its kind in the area. Indications are that these date to the Middle Woodland time period (ca. 200 B.C.- A.D. 600), and included regional interaction with long distance trade of artifacts and goods. It is a public architecture, ceremonial , and mortuary site.
    Porter County
  • The Mossberg House. Designed in 1948 by America’s most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. This modernistic house reflects Wright’s ideas for American housing in the post war period, in a style he called “Usonian.” Though it’s been published as a landmark of American design since before the 1970s, it’s not on the National Register of Historic Places.
    South Bend
  • Sections of the Wabash and Erie Canal. Some sections still carry water. The great canal project began in the 1830s and gave many Wabash Valley towns their first chance at drawing settlers and businesses. Now, places like the Wabash and Erie Canal Interpretive Center use the canal to entertain and educate the public.
    Delphi, Carroll County
  • The Strand and the Brokaw Theaters. Both theaters are located on the courthouse square and are separated by a single storefront. The Brokaw opened in 1921 while the Strand opened five years later for vaudeville. The current marquees represent renovations from the 1940s. The two theaters still show movies and help illuminate the downtown square.
    Angola
  • The Lincoln Tower. This monument to Art Deco style towers above the skyline, as it has since local architect A.M Strauss, with help from Walker & Weeks of Cleveland, Ohio, designed in 1930.
    Fort Wayne, Allen County
  • Lebanon is the seat of one of Indiana’s fastest growing counties, Boone County. There is only one item on the National Register in the entire city of Lebanon, though there are neighborhoods, like the Ulen area, lined with fine houses from the 1880s, 1890s, and early 1900s.
    Lebanon, Boone County
  • Architecture of Samuel Plato. Plato experienced many hardships during his career. An African-American, he designed landmark buildings in his hometown of Marion. The First Baptist Church is an excellent example of Plato’s talents.
    Marion, Grant County
  • Miami County Courthouse. The stately limestone 1908 county courthouse is a landmark to the community. But, it’s not on the National Register of Historic Places, nor is the intact square of some 120 historic buildings, ranging in date from the 1870s to the 1940s. A limestone turn-of-the-century railroad depot would also be part of this district.
    Peru, Miami County
  • 13-24 Drive-In. This represents a vanishing resource type of the recent past. This 1950 drive-in retains its original layout and has a capacity for over 700 cars. The original neon marquee announces the double-features all summer long. This locally-owned theater manages to succeed despite the increased competition from big-box theaters in recent years.
    Wabash
  • The city of Connersville. This is one of Indiana’s oldest cities. Walking through its historic downtown is like opening a guide book to American architecture – just about every kind of building type or style from 1820-1945 fill the streets of this historic river town. Major portions of the city qualify for the National Register as historic districts, but only one building is officially listed.
    Connersville, Fayette County
  • Fudge Mound Site (12R10). In ancient times, mound building cultures thrived in Indiana. Indiana is known for its rich collection of ceremonial mounds and sites, and for its research into this cultural phenomenon. This well-preserved site includes an oval-shaped mound.
    Randolph County
  • Hebrew Cemeteries. In heart of Indiana’s capitol, lies the hidden story of Jewish immigration. The Hebrew Cemeteries near Bluff Road on the south side of town feature distinctive iron work gates and stones carved in Hebrew. There are few reminders of this significant chapter in Indianapolis history, except for this cemetery used by several temple congregations.
    Indianapolis
  • Bridge over Deer Creek. The graceful, 347’ long, four arch concrete Bridge over Deer Creek is an obvious landmark. The Indiana State Highway Commission designed and built this remarkable bridge in 1922-23 to reactivate the old National Road as a new Federal highway, U.S. 40.
    Putnam County
  • The town of Vevay. This is a historic Ohio River town with roots dating back to 1813. Only two of its 500 historic buildings are listed on the National Register and that doesn’t include the town’s 1864 county courthouse, or any of its brick antebellum houses.
    Switzerland County
  • Oberting Hill Fort Site (12D25). This site is a large, relatively intact mound and earthworks complex that has received little investigation. It has cultural components dating back to the Late Archaic time period (as early as 4000 B.C.) and through the Woodland time periods (ca. 1000 B.C.- A.D. 1000).
    Dearborn County
  • Ohio County Courthouse. This is Indiana’s oldest continuously-used county courthouse.
    Rising Sun, Ohio County
  • Alton/Magnet Site (12Pe171). This is one of several significant Ohio River sites not included in the National Register. This site is a stone tool (e.g., chipped stone tools and spear points) manufacturing site with a very early, rare Paleoindian (circa 10,000-7500 B.C.) component. Part of the site is in a wooded area, so it may contain intact cultural deposits from this time period.
    Perry County
  • Leora Brown School. The school is three blocks outside the boundaries of the Corydon Historic District and is the only historic school for African Americans. This 1890s frame school house is also emblematic of the hundreds of unlisted, but historic, schools throughout Indiana.
    Corydon, Harrison County

Iowa

  • Yorkshire Lead Mining Historic District. This historic context and district is located in and around Dubuque, Iowa and includes different sites, buildings, and structures associated with the Yorkshire settlement of the area. The introduction and implementation of lead mining and processing techniques from settlers emigrating from the mining country in Yorkshire, England into this area appears to represent a significant part of the later lead mining history of northeastern Iowa, northwestern Illinois and southwestern Wisconsin.
    Dubuque, Dubuque County
  • Stone City Historic District. This picturesque eastern Iowa village is nationally known as the backdrop for Grant Wood’s famous painting “Stone City” and as the location of his legendary Stone City Art Colony in the summers of 1932 and 1933, seminal events in the development of the American Regional art movement. Originally founded in the 1870’s and 1880’s largely due to the activities of three limestone quarrying operations and featuring a wide variety of buildings, sites, and structures, the Stone City Historic District is one of Iowa’s best surviving examples of a “company town.”
    Stone City, Jones County
  • Dairy Cattle Congress. The Dairy Cattle Congress grounds and buildings are historically significant for their association with dairy farming in northeast Iowa, the interest in improved breeds and farming techniques, and the Waterloo booster spirit that worked to bring the Congress to Waterloo. The Dairy Cattle Congress moved to this Waterloo location in 1912, and the buildings and grounds have expanded numerous times.
    Waterloo, Black Hawk County
  • Rath Packing Company. Between 1891 and 1985, the Rath Packing Company grew from a small local business into the ninth largest meat packing company in the United States. By 1950, the Waterloo plant was the largest single-unit packing house in the world. The Rath Packing Administration Building is the only remaining building representing this important business in Waterloo.
    Waterloo, Black Hawk County
  • The Weed Park Mound Grou. First formally documented in 1975, this site consists of nine large, conical mounds arranged in a single, east-west trending line, and are located in Weed Park overlooking the Mississippi River. Since Iowa’s settlement many mound groups like this one have fallen victim to agriculture and urban development. The Weed Park Mound Group represents one of the few remaining intact mound groups in Iowa.
    Muscatine, Muscatine County
  • The Iowaville Archaeological Site (13VB124). This is a protohistoric and historic archaeological site located along the Des Moines River. This large site represents the probable location of an Ioway tribal village dating to the 1770s and 1820s. During the 1820s, the Ioway Tribe was attacked at this location by the Sauk Tribe and was defeated in battle. The Ioway tribe was forced to flee from the site after the battle and the Sauk tribe eventually occupied and utilized the site. After the removal of the Sauk Tribe from Southeast Iowa through treaties, the site later became the historic town of Iowaville which has since been abandoned.
    Van Buren County
  • Kinnick Stadium. Completed in 1929 and designed by the Proudfoot firm as well, this classic football facility was originally known as Iowa Stadium. It was renamed to honor Nile Kinnick, Jr, who won fame and the Heisman Trophy while playing here in 1939. During World War II, it was used by the military for Iowa Pre-Flight School athletic activities, and in the late 1950’s served as an early launching pad for space exploration activities by Professor James Van Allen, one of the nation’s top scientists in the space program.
    Iowa City, Johnson County
  • Senator Smith Brookhart Barn. This large barn was built in the 1920s by United States Senator Smith Brookhart while he was in office. Now rehabilitated and on the Strabala farm, the barn has been featured in both Iowa Farmer Today and on the annual tours of the Iowa Barn Foundation.
    Washington, Washington County
  • The Christensen Oneota Site (13PK407). The Christensen site is a multiple episode seasonal encampment located along the Des Moines River north of Des Moines. It is associated with the Moingona Phase of the Oneota Cultural Tradition and represents one of the northern-most manifestations of the Moingona Phase. Radiocarbon assays place the time of occupation between circa A.D. 1200 and A.D. 1300. Exploratory excavation in 1983 followed by more intensive excavation in 2001 revealed the sites excellent state of preservation. Data recovery efforts located intact features including the floor depressions of several shelters, hearths, trash-filled pits, and sheet midden deposits. The Christensen site is considered significant for its ability to contribute to a better understanding of Moingona Phase seasonal subsistence economies, social organization, settlement patterns, and site structure.
    Polk County
  • Sac & Fox 80 Acre Village Tract and Meskwaki Powwow Ground (13TM517). The original 80 Acres of the Meskwaki Indian Settlement including the former village site and current powwow grounds is located in Tama County, Iowa along the Iowa River. The Meskwaki Tribe, federally recognized as the Sac and Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa, purchased the original 80 acres of land in 1857 after the State of Iowa enacted a law allowing the Meskwaki Tribe to stay in Iowa in 1856. Until the 1900s, this was an unusual circumstance where a tribe was allowed to remain in a state and was allowed to purchase land which was held in trust by the Governor. Through the purchase of the land, the tribe was able to live a more independent, traditional lifestyle than tribes confined to federal reservations which were regulated by federal authority. This is considered to be a Traditional Cultural Property of the tribe.
    Meskwaki Settlement, Tama County
  • Drake University Stadium. This rather vaguely Gothic-influenced stadium was designed by Proudfoot, Rawson, and Souers, one of Iowa’s leading and most influential architectural firms, and placed into service in 1925. A multipurpose facility, designed for both football and track, this facility is best known for hosting the annual Drake Relays, a nationally and internationally significant track and field event.
    Des Moines, Polk County
  • Iowa Braille and Sight Saving School Main Building. Constructed in three stages between 1858 and 1873, this edifice is the second oldest extant state government building, predated only by “Old Capitol,” a designated National Historic Landmark in Iowa City. Originally founded in 1853, Iowa’s school for the blind, is the state’s second oldest public education institution being established six years after the University of Iowa opened its doors. One of the most famous students to attend the school was Mary Ingalls, the sister of Laura Ingalls Wilder, who would blend the story of her sister’s blindness and attendance at the school, into her series of “Little House” books.
    Vinton, Benton County
  • Fort Atkinson (13WH57. Significant for its history, architecture, and archaeology, Fort Atkinson was built in 1840 in an effort to contain the Winnebago tribe within a Neutral Ground in Iowa. The fort also functioned to prevent illegal entry of white traders, smugglers, and squatters onto Indian lands. Documentary evidence and field studies have indicated the potential for research at the two Winnebago sub agencies, trading posts, encampments, habitations, and cemeteries.
    Winneshiek County
  • The Folkert Mound Group (13HA30). This site is a Late Woodland period mound group dating from A.D. 300 to A.D. 1250 and located within the Iowa River Greenbelt. The mound group includes a unique cruciform mound which may be considered to be a true effigy mound. This mound group may represent the furthest west extension of the Effigy Mound Culture.
    Hardin County
  • The Little Brown Church. Completed in 1864, this Gothic Revival influenced Congregational Church is best known for its association with the popular hymn, “The Church in the Wildwood.” The hymn’s composer William S. Pitts visited the church’s site in 1857, and the words he wrote inspired Reverend J.K. Nutting in 1860 to design the building affectionately known as “the little brown church in the vale.”
    Near Nashua in Chickasaw County
  • Campanile and Stanton Memorial Carillon, Iowa State University. Arguably the most notable structure on the Iowa State University campus, the Campanile was designed by Des Moines architect George Hallett and completed in 1899. The tower and bells are an integral part of every student’s experience Iowa State and commemorate the importance of Margaret MacDonald and Edgar W. Stanton’s contributions to the University.
    Ames, Story County
  • The Mill Creek Archaeological District. This is composed of sites associated with the Little Sioux Phase of the late prehistoric Mill Creek culture in northwest Iowa. The Double Ditch (13OB8) and Litka Sites (13OB31) are two key properties within this proposed district and both are considered individually eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. The Double Ditch site is a short-term village fortified by a rampart-presumably with a palisade wall on top, and inner and outer ditches. The Litka site is a small field containing a network of parallel east-west trending ridges. These features were part of a ridged field or raised bed system associated with nearby Mill Creek occupation. The Litka site represents one of the few remaining examples of late prehistoric ridged field agriculture in the United States.
    O’Brien County
  • Civil Bend Underground Railroad Historic-Archaeological District (13FM97).
    The Kansas-Nebraska struggle underscored the nation’s sectional conflict and the important place shared by the border west states in the events leading to Civil War. When Missourians closed off the Missouri River to Kansas bound settlers from eastern states, Iowa became the leading route of transit for Kansas free state forces and assumed an important place in America’s Underground Railroad history. The rural neighborhood of Civil Bend—at the southwestern corner of Iowa—served as the major first station point for passage of slaves escaping from Missouri through Kansas and Nebraska.
    Fremont County
  • Close Brothers Tenant Farmsteads. These two farmsteads with their original farm houses constructed by the English Close brothers and their corporate alter egos the Western Land Company and Iowa Land Company are rare survivors from hundreds of tenant farms established in northwestern Iowa in the early 1880’s in an effort to recreate English land holding and farming patterns in the new world.
    Osceola County
  • Music Pavilion and Outdoor Theatre in Grandview Park. Designed by local architect and prominent architectural educator Henry Kamphoefner, the Grandview Park Music Pavilion was built in the early 1930s with the assistance the Civil Works Administration. The bandshell was one of Kamphoefner’s most noted designs, receiving awards nationally and internationally. The property was first noted for its architectural significance in 1979 and a similar Kamphoefner design in Fort Dodge (the Oleson Park Music Pavilion) was recently recognized as being nationally significant for its architectural design.
