NPS Form lO SOO-a 0MB Approval No. 1024-0018 (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Depot Square Historic District Section 7 Page 5 Wichita Falls, Wichita County, Texas The Depot Square Historic District is located in the far northeast comer of downtown Wichita Falls, Texas, and its buildings reflect popular commercial architectural designs of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Occupying portions of seven city blocks adjacent to the Ft. Worth & Denver and the MK&T ("Katy") Railroad tracks, the district features a collection of late 19"' and early 20"' century commercial and industrial buildings which reflect the city's development as a regional center for commerce and industry. Most buildings in the district were built between 1885 and 1925 and are modestly adorned l-part and 2-part commercial blocks. Several buildings with more elaborate detail include the Beaux Arts Holt Hotel (1910) and the Romanesque Kemp Wholesale (1892) and Route Buildings (1909). Overall, the district retains a good degree of integrity, with 31 of 40 buildings classified as contributing. The Depot Square Historic District echoes the early history of Wichita Fails. The district is located along the Ft. Worth & Denver and the MK&T Railroad tracks on the east side of downtown Wichita Falls, primarily along Ohio Street and adjacent blocks between 5"' Street and 9''' Street. The streets are laid on a rectilinear grid. Typically, the historic district buildings are one or two stories with "zero lot'" property lines, with buildings built to the sidewalk. Buildings located four blocks north of Seventh Street on Ohio were used to stable horse and wagons, but as the automobile arrived, this area transitioned into automobile sales and service. The original street patterns of the district accommodated the horse and wagon. Streets once known as LaSalle, Michigan, and Lee are only now wide enough to be used as alleyways. The majority of buildings in the district are brick l-part and 2-part commercial blocks with omament relegated to the parapet. Some buildings feature cast iron columns produced by the Gainesville Iron Works (Texas), which were probably manufactured prior to 1907. In 1884, the first local bricks were made west of town by John Swinbume. J.W. Bell of nearby Crowell, Texas, hauled the brick for the first brick building and his father held a contract for the construction of about five commercial properties, one being the famous White Elephant Saloon. Most of the bricks were produced by locally by craftsman at the Wichita Brick Works, owned by M.O Reilly. Architecture in the district Depot Square Historic District contains 39 buildings within a V/i rectangular block profile. Three building periods and several architectural styles are represented within the district, sub-divided in the following eras: 1. Settlement Period 1880 - c. 1908 2. Railroad Period 1882 -1925 3. Oil Boom Period 1901 - present The historical architecture found in the Depot Square Historical District exhibits diverse stylistic tendencies, often combining elements of classical or revivals styles with popular contemporary movements in commercial architecture. A general categorization of styles prominent in the Depot Square, with examples of each: Commercial Style Example: J.F. Keller Building General Characteristics: Paneled brick fa9ade with articulated pilasters, brick corbelling, cast-iron storefront structure. Recessed entry, corbelled brick or metal cornices, awnings. Romanesque Revival Example: Kemp Wholesale NPS Form 10-900-a 0MB Approval No. 1024-0018 (8-861 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Depot Square Historic District Section 7 Page 6 Wichita Falls, Wichita County, Texas General Characteristics: Roman arch openings, articulated arch and pilasters, rusticated masonry. Classical Revival Example: Holt Hotel (Kemp Kell Building) General Characteristics: Differently articulated floor levels, enriched and projecting cornices, stylized classic ornamentation, and window lights. Renaissance Revival Example: Route Building General Characteristics: Renaissance detailing, quoins, articulated openings, flat segment arches, floor levels articulated, stylized projecting cornices. Commercial Transitional (1920s and 1930s) Between the periods of classic revivals and modem/international periods of architecture, there existed a transitional period of commercial building design. The characteristics of this style include retention of classic fa9ade arrangement and mild articulation of structural systems through expressed pilasters and spandrels. Historical stylistic elements and details are minimal and mainly occur only at important openings, parapets, and corners. The products of this period were austere, utilitarian, and because of their construction, usually concrete frame with generous bays - they were adaptable to a wide variety of uses. Many examples can be found in downtown and throughout Wichita Falls. Each of the contributing and noncontributing resources is described below. 1. 501 Indiana This unique stucco covered building located on the northern boundary of the District was a simple rectangular brick structure was built pre-1919. Early wood frame windows on three sides door opening to Indiana depict a storage facility or ancillary building of the settlement and oil periods of the City. The parapet walls extend above the roof line with catch scuppers on the north and south side of the building for drainage. Oral history indicates an early barber shop use. After construction of the ice company building just northwest, this building was the check-in office for People's Ice Company. In 1907 the property was used as Andy Morris Livery Stable.' Stucco was the major construction repair and maintenance material used in the early 1950's in Wichita Falls and the brick exposed on parts of the structure indicate similarity to the Ice Building. The window sash and sills have weathered to a critical point of replacement. The front door and jamb appear have also weathered. The building is used today for storage by owners Backdoor Theater, a non-profit corporation. Contributing. 2. 510 Indiana A significant four story red brick structure rises above all of the buildings on northern Indiana and Ohio acting as the beacon node. A stepped parapet crowns the top with some excellent

Smith Committee Members, Peter J. Hugill Christian Brannstrom Bradford P. Wilcox Head of Department, Douglas J. Sherman May 2007 Major Subject: Geography iii ABSTRACT Changing Patterns and Perceptions of Water Use in East Central Texas Since the Time of Anglo Settlement. (May 2007) Wendy Winborn Patzewitsch, B.A., Trinity University; M.S., Southern Methodist University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Jonathan M. Smith Patterns and perceptions of water use have changed since Anglo settlement in Texas in the early nineteenth century. Change has not been constant, gradual, or linear, but rather has occurred in fits and spurts. This pattern of punctuated equilibrium in water use regimes is the central finding of this dissertation. Water use is examined in terms of built, organizational, and institutional inertias that resist change in the cultural landscape. Change occurs only when forced by crisis and results in water management at an increasing scale. Perception is critical in forcing response to crisis.

  • Distributional Surveys of Freshwater Bivalves in Texas: Progress Report for 1997
    DISTRIBUTIONAL SURVEYS OF FRESHWATER BIVALVES IN TEXAS: PROGRESS REPORT FOR 1997 by Robert G. Howells MANAGEMENT DATA SERIES No. 147 1998 Texas Parks and Wildlife Depar1ment Inland Fisheries Division 4200 Smith School Road Austin, Texas 78744 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many biologists and technicians with Texas Parks and Wildlife Department's Inland Fisheries Research and Management offices assisted with SW"Veys and collectons of freshwater mussels. Thanks also go to Pam Balcer (Kerrville, Texas) and Sue Martin (San Angelo; Texas) who assised extensively with collection of specimens and Jesse Todd (Dallas, Texas), Dr. Charles Mather (University of Arts and Science, Chickasha, Oklahoma) and J.A.M. Bergmann (Boerne, Texas) who provided specimens and field data. ABSTRACT During 1997, over 1,500 unionid specimens were docwnented from 87 locations (I 06 sample sites) statewide in Texas where specimens were either directly surveyed by the Heart of the Hills Research Station (HOH) staff or were sent to HOH by volunteers. Living specimens or recently-dead shells were found at 59% of the locations, 14% yielded only Jong-dead or subfossil shells, 24% produced no unionids or their remains, and 3% could not be accessed due to private lands or other local site problems which precluded sampling. Jn conjunction with previous field-survey work J 992-1996, unionids appear completely or almost completely extirpated from the Pedernales, Blanco, San Marcos, Llano, Medina, upper Guadalupe, upper Sulphur, areas of the San Jacinto, and much of the San Saba rivers. Sections of other river systems and many tributaries have also experienced major unionid population losses in recent years.

  • Christal House Historical Narrative
    CHRISTAL HOUSE Historical narrative written and researched by Annetta Ramsay and Randy Hunt for Texas Historical Commission Recorded Texas Historic Landmark Application Denton County I. CONTEXT Recorded history of the property at the northeast corner of West Oak and Mounts Streets originates with the first instrument of conveyance in 1839, from the Republic of Texas to William Neill for receipt of 640 acres of land as payment for services in the Texas-Mexican War of 1836.1 The Republic of Texas’ Secretary of War, A. Sidney Johnston, issued certificate #9324 on November 13, 1839 as a land grant to Neil, in the future region of Denton, Texas2. R. W. Woodruff acquired 100.5 acres in 1855 from the original 640 acre Neil track3. The City of Denton was named the County Seat in 1857 the first city lots were auctioned4. In 1858, Woodruff’s widow, Louisa E. Woodruff, subdivided the acreage into 14 lots and one extra lot of more than 20 acres which she donated to the formation of the City of Denton5. Her gift coincided with contributions by William Loving (40 acres) and Hiram Sisco (40 acres) creating the new City and County seat. Lot 13 was purchased by Judge Carroll and Lot 14 of 18.9 acres was purchased on January 28, 1859 by Joseph Bledsoe6. The south boundary of the lot, shared by A.E. Graham, became West Oak Street. Denton grew from a frontier town, incorporating as a City in 1866. The first railroad, Texas and Pacific Railway, came to Denton in 1881, linking Denton to major cities, promoting Denton’s role as an agricultural trade center.
