INTRODUCTION The Butte-Anaconda National Historic Landmark encompasses 9,774 acres, within which are 7,910 resources, roughly three-quarters of which (6,015), contribute to the national significance of the district. The district’s contributing resources include 5,975 buildings, two sites, 37 structures and one object. The nation’s largest NHL (in terms of resource count), the Butte-Anaconda NHL district includes three communities – Butte, Anaconda and Walkerville – as well as the Butte, Anaconda & Pacific Railroad (BA & P). Butte (population 34,000), which is the largest of the three communities, was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1961.1 Walkerville (population 700) is adjacent to Butte and, though sometimes viewed as a neighborhood within Butte, is a distinct community with its own government. Anaconda (population 9,000) is approximately 26 miles west of Butte, connected to its “sister city” by the Deer Lodge Valley and the BA & P rail link. In 1961, Butte’s national prominence as a copper-producing center was recognized with its designation as a National Historic Landmark under the theme of Westward Expansion (Mining Frontier of the Trans- Mississippi West). In 1972, a nomination was prepared that defined the period of significance as 1864- 1922; the NHL boundary encompassed 2,720 acres of Butte’s uptown sector and a preliminary list of 31 sites and structures based upon a “visual survey of the ‘old town.’”2 The 1972 nomination recommended that an in-depth study be conducted to further refine the boundaries. This nomination accomplishes that boundary revision, and expands the boundaries of the NHL to include all of the copper district’s nationally significant mining resources that retain a high degree of integrity, including those within Walkerville, which was the site of the NHL district’s earliest mining operations (as well as the focus of its first labor strike), and Anaconda, a company town that was specifically established as the smelting center for Butte, and which is integral to the history of copper production with the NHL district. As noted in Section 8, this nomination also expands the district thematically, to include nationally significant resources associated with the history of American Labor. As amended, the Butte-Anaconda NHL district is an outstanding representation of national mining and labor history, representing the NHL Thematic Framework’s Theme V., Developing the American Economy. The district as a whole and all of its essential components retain an impressively high level of integrity. The sheer number of extant contributing resources and the unique industrial character of the district are extraordinary, and represent an era and a way of life tied to the industrial growth of the nation. Specific resources within the landmark district that embody these themes include: • First and foremost, the headframes, mill buildings, mines, mine yards and industrial resources that reflect Butte Hill’s 50-year reign as the world’s most productive copper district. • The Granite Mountain Mine, site of the disastrous Granite Mountain/Speculator fire that galvanized labor activists and precipitated formation of the Metal Mine Workers’ Union and events leading to the lynching of International Workers of the World (IWW) leader Frank Little. • The historic community of Walkerville, birthplace of Butte mining and the incubator of investment resources that gave rise to a copper-based mining empire. 1 Also within the town of Butte is the individually designated Burton Wheeler House National Historic Landmark (1976). 2 The 1864 beginning date for this period of significance marked the first mining discoveries in the area, which were silver rather than copper. The 1922 ending date was, presumably, the 50-year cut-off date for historical significance, as the nomination was prepared in 1972.

TIME, MEMORY, NOSTALGIA THE NINTH INTERNATIONAL GRAPHIC NOVEL AND COMICS CONFERENCE WEDNESDAY 27TH – FRIDAY 29TH JUNE 2018 BOURNEMOUTH UNIVERSITY, UK Retro – a looking to the past – is everywhere in contemporary culture. Cultural critics like Jameson argue that retro and nostalgia are symptoms of postmodernism – that we can pick and choose various items and cultural phenomena from different eras and place them together in a pastiche that means little and decontextualizes their historicity. However, as Bergson argues in Memory and Matter, the senses evoke memories, and popular culture artefacts like comics can bring the past to life in many ways. The smell and feel of old paper can trigger memories just as easily as revisiting an old haunt or hearing a piece of music from one’s youth. As fans and academics we often look to the past to tell us about the present. We may argue about the supposed ‘golden age’ of comics. Our collecting habits may even define our lifestyles and who we are. But nostalgia has its dark side and some regard this continuous looking to the past as a negative emotion in which we aim to restore a lost adolescence. In Mediated Nostalgia, Ryan Lizardi argues that the contemporary media fosters narcissistic nostalgia ‘to develop individualized pasts that are defined by idealized versions of beloved lost media texts’ (2). This argument suggests that fans are media dupes lost in a reverie of nostalgic melancholia; but is belied by the diverse responses of fandom to media texts. Moreover, ‘retro’ can be taken to imply an ironic appropriation.

  • Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0
    Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency Strategic Plan April 2018 1.0 Introduction The Sutter-Butte Basin (Basin) covers 300 square miles bordered by the Cherokee Canal to the north, the Sutter Buttes to the west, the Sutter Bypass to the southwest and the 44-mile long Feather River to the east—see Figure 1. The Basin is home to 95,000 residents and encompasses $7 billion of damageable assets (as estimated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, or USACE). The region has sustained numerous floods, including the 1955 levee failure on the Feather River, which resulted in the deaths of at least 38 people. The personal safety and economic stability of large segments of the population are reliant on flood management systems that, until recent efforts, did not begin to meet modern engineering standards. Numerous projects and programs have been implemented in the Basin over the years to reduce flood risk, including the Feather River West Levee Project, which is nearing completion. The Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency (SBFCA) leads the planning and implementation efforts in the Basin to reduce the risk of catastrophic, riverine flooding. In this role, SBFCA collaborates with local, regional, state, tribal and federal agencies and organizations. On January 13, 2016 the SBFCA Board of Directors adopted the Strategic Plan to guide these efforts. This version is the first update to the Strategic Plan. 2.0 Purpose of the Strategic Plan The purpose of the Strategic Plan is to help formulate and articulate a vision for flood management within the Basin and to describe an approach to achieve this vision.

  • Kiggins Theater Clark County, Washington
    NPS Form 10-900a OMB No. 1024-0018 (Rev. 8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet – KIGGINS THEATER CLARK COUNTY, WASHINGTON Section number 8 Page 1of 13 Statement of Significance The Kiggins Theater, located on Main Street in Vancouver’s City Center, is eligible for listing to the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C (The property embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction or represents the work of a master, or possesses high artistic values, or represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components lack individual distinction). The Theater is Vancouver’s, and Southwest Washington’s, finest example of art deco and streamlined moderne architecture. The period of significance is 1936, when the theater opened. Art deco is known primarily for its use of early modern ornamentation. The Streamline Moderne movement is similarly associated with early modernism, but is known for a less decorative approach than art deco, emphasizing instead smooth lines, bands and courses, and a more machine-like approach but with a continued emphasis on aesthetics. Prime examples of art deco design include William Van Alan’s 1924 Chrysler Building, which is topped by concentric bands with radial features, creating a beautiful repetition of form, much like can be seen with the bands of cast concrete which wrap the upper story of the Kiggins theater and which divide, like pilasters, the store-front bays and theater on the western façade. Another fine example of the smooth lines emphasized in these styles is evident in the famous Odoen Theater in London England.
