  • History of the Orange Belt Railway
    HISTORY OF THE ORANGE BELT RAILWAY As the 1880's unfolded, Florida's frontier was being penetrated by a system of three-foot gauge railroads, spurred on by a generous state land grant. This story focuses on one of the last common carrier narrow gauge roads to be built in Florida, which was also one of the last to be converted to standard gauge. Petrovitch A. Demenscheff was born in Petrograd, Russia in 1850. His family was of the nobility with large estates. He was the first cousin of Prince Petroff and a captain in the Imperial Guard. He received training as a forester managing his large family estates, which would serve him well in the future. In 1880 he was exiled from Russia, and with his wife, children and servant immigrated to America, Anglicizing his name to Peter Demens. For some odd reason he headed south to Florida and obtained a job as a laborer at a sawmill in Longwood, Florida. He worked hard and within a year was appointed manager. Later with the money he saved he became partners with the owners and then quickly bought them out. Demens soon became one of the biggest contractors in the state, building houses, stations, hotels and railroads throughout Florida. One railroad contract was the narrow gauge Orange Belt Railway that he took over when they couldn't pay for the work. The Orange Belt Railway at first was a real estate promotion, using mule power (his name was Jack) and wood rails from Longwood to Myrtle Lake. When Demens took the road over he formed an operating company called the Orange Belt Investment Company.

People pay millions of dollars to live in a “rat’s mouth” (“ Boca Raton ” in Spanish), while others call Two Egg or Sopchoppy their home. Here are some names from early settlements along the Pinellas Peninsula: Anclote: The word derives from the Spanish word for a kedge or a small anchor commonly used by sailing vessels. Maps from the 1700s forward note the Anclote River. After the Civil War, Frederic Meyer left Marion County and settled on lands north of the river. By the 1870s, a small community formed along the north shore of the river, west of present-day Tarpon Springs. By one pioneer’s account, over ninety-percent of the men who came to the settlement in vessels were “of English extraction,” many of them from the British West Indies.

  • Suburbanization Historic Context and Survey Methodology
    INTRODUCTION The geographical area for this project is Maryland’s 42-mile section of the I-95/I- 495 Capital Beltway. The historic context was developed for applicability in the broad area encompassed within the Beltway. The survey of historic resources was applied to a more limited corridor along I-495, where resources abutting the Beltway ranged from neighborhoods of simple Cape Cods to large-scale Colonial Revival neighborhoods. The process of preparing this Suburbanization Context consisted of: • conducting an initial reconnaissance survey to establish the extant resources in the project area; • developing a history of suburbanization, including a study of community design in the suburbs and building patterns within them; • defining and delineating anticipated suburban property types; • developing a framework for evaluating their significance; • proposing a survey methodology tailored to these property types; • and conducting a survey and National Register evaluation of resources within the limited corridor along I-495. The historic context was planned and executed according to the following goals: • to briefly cover the trends which influenced suburbanization throughout the United States and to illustrate examples which highlight the trends; • to present more detail in statewide trends, which focused on Baltimore as the primary area of earliest and typical suburban growth within the state; • and, to focus at a more detailed level on the local suburbanization development trends in the Washington, D.C. suburbs, particularly the Maryland counties of Montgomery and Prince George’s. Although related to transportation routes such as railroad lines, trolley lines, and highways and freeways, the location and layout of Washington’s suburbs were influenced by the special nature of the Capital city and its dependence on a growing bureaucracy and not the typical urban industrial base.

  • Mapping the Stylistic Affiliations of Le Corbusier's Work 0.1 Prologue
    Le Corbusier, 50 years later International Congress Valencia 18th-20lli November 2015 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/LC2015.2015.799 Mapping the Stylistic Affiliations of Le Corbusier's Work P. Ilias Panigyrakis TU Delft, School of Architecture and the Built Environment Abstract: The paper deals with Le Corbusier's connection to the term "style". A classification of his work in specific architectural styles is discussed, followed by a description of the procedure through which the style ofthe man Le Corbusier was constructed; in an attempt to search meaning in his continual stylistic shifts and the rationale that kept his lifetime's work and identity strongly compact when we consider him retrospectively. Resiimen: El articulo trata la conexión de Le Corbusier con el lérmino ëstilo'.'Se disciite una clasificación de su obra en estilos arqiiitectónicos especificos, seguido de una descripción de los procedimientos a través del ciial el hombre fiie construido al estilo de Le Corbusier; un intento de büsqueda de sentido en siis camhios estilisticos contimias y las razones que mantuvo el trabajo y la identiclad de su vida fuertemente compacta, cuando lo consideramos retrospectivamente Keywords: Le Corbusier; Style; Stylistic Shifts. Palabras clave: Le Corbusier; Estilo; Cambios Estilisticos. 0.1 Prologue It is said that Le Corbusier used to keep a picture of his 1914 Maison Dom-ino scheme side by side with a picture ofthe Parthenon from his 1911 visit in Athens. It is also known that he viciously fought against the talk of styles m the architectural discourse. How should we interpret then the above mentioned coupling of Dom-mo, the epitome of technique of the 20th century architecture, along with the Parthenon, the most imitated object of any iconographic style prior to Modernism? This research will argue for the stylistic affiliations of Le Corbusier's work in an attempt to map the trajectory of architectural forms applied hi the extensive work ofthe legendary architect.

  • Euclid Avenue Historic District
    EUCLID AVENUE HISTORIC DISTRICT AERIAL & MAP OF The Euclid Avenue Historic District contains the portion of the Avenue which is north of G and south of the I-10. All properties which front Euclid Avenue in this portion have been included within the Historic District boundaries. HISTORY Euclid Avenue was designed and laid out in 1882 by EUCLID AVENUE MEDIAN IS LISTED ON THE George & William Chaffey to be the backbone and NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES centerpiece for the “Model Irrigation Colony”. The brothers designed the avenue to be a thing of functionality and lasting beauty. Euclid Avenue had provisions for an electric railway, water rights for each landowner, electric lights, and long distance telephone lines, and a local educational institution. All of these components were integral to the growth and development that occurred along the avenue. The avenue was designed to run from San Antonio Heights at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains at the north end of the colony to the southern edge of the colony at the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks. Construction of the avenue began that same year under the Chaffey brother’s direct supervision and, by 1884, four miles of the avenue had been graded. The median was landscaped with Palm trees and faster growing Pepper trees. The curbs and streets were made of granite cobblestone. The cobblestone streets have been paved over with asphalt several times over the years and are no longer visible. In 1886, the Chaffey’s sold their interest in Ontario to Charles Frankish who then formed the Ontario Land and Improvement Company.

  • 4.0 ARCHITECTURAL SUMMARY and RECOMMENDATIONS
    Intensive Level Historic Resources Survey Town of Clarence 4.0 ARCHITECTURAL SUMMARY and RECOMMENDATIONS CBCA PN 05-012A May 2009 Intensive Level Historic Resources Survey Town of Clarence 4.0 ARCHITECTURAL SUMMARY and RECOMMENDATIONS This section provides a brief academic description and generalized viewing context for architectural styles and forms found to be represented in the Town of Clarence. 4.1 Residential Architectural Styles and Forms: 4.1.1 Colonial Houses (1600-1820) 1 The early colonists of America brought with them the prevailing architectural styles and building practices of their native lands. In the early 1700s, the English colonists of the successful eastern seaboard colonies imported from their mother country the Renaissance-inspired Georgian style, which was quickly adopted and adapted. Nearly a century later, this then-dominant style was replaced by the related Adam style. Both styles are marked by a simple box-like plan, strict symmetry and distinct, even ornamentation emphasizing the entrances and fenestration. Figure 20. – Rice Sinclair House, Main Street Local Historic Designated Landmark Remaining, original examples of Colonial homes are relatively rare. Much more common are later “revivals.” It is often difficult to distinguish these “revivals” from the originals. Two points may be help in this determination: the location, as each Colonial style was built in a rather limited area of the country; and a significant element of hand-crafting evident in the construction and detailing of the dwelling, as Colonials were built before the era of industrialization. Based on dates, location, and local history, the Town of Clarence may have a small handful of remaining Colonial houses of later Adam influenced styling, albeit with later period adaptation and modification; further investigation will yield conclusive determination.
