    La Plaza Vieja Neighborhood Historic Context 1901–1954 Prepared for City of Flagstaff Prepared by SWCA Environmental Consultants May 2015 Version LA PLAZA VIEJA NEIGHBORHOOD HISTORIC CONTEXT 1901–1954 Prepared for City of Flagstaff Comprehensive Planning Program Attn: Sara Dechter 211 West Aspen Avenue Flagstaff, Arizona 86001 (928) 213.2631 Prepared by Annie Jay Lutes, M.A., M.S. SWCA Environmental Consultants 114 North San Francisco Street Suite 100 Flagstaff, Arizona 86001 (928) 774.5500 www.swca.com SWCA Project No. 31119 May 2015 Version EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Flagstaff (City) commissioned this historic context in 2014 for the La Plaza Vieja neighborhood, in Flagstaff, Coconino County, Arizona. This historic context was developed to provide the beginnings of an analytical framework by identifying important historic themes of the neighborhood within time and space. By understanding what geographical, temporal, and historical aspects shaped the physical environment of La Plaza Vieja, we can begin to identify the essential elements critical to the historic integrity of the neighborhood. Using the Areas of Significance established by the National Register, four themes (or areas) of historic significance were identified for La Plaza Vieja: Community Planning and Development, Industry, Ethnic Heritage, and Architecture. This historic context further defined important property types associated with these important historic themes. A property type is the link by which the history of the neighborhood is connected to its built environment. An identified property types was considered important if it correlated with the relevant historic themes present through the development of La Plaza Vieja. Additionally, this study utilized existing literature to aid in determining the historic character-defining elements those property types must possess to be considered significant representations of type and context (including geographical and temporal context).

This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1972 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

Gardner, Alexander: GARDNER’S PHOTO- GRAPHIC SKETCH BOOK OF THE WAR. Washington. [1865]. Two volumes. [53]; [53]pp. of text and 100 original albumen silver print photographs (each approximately 7 x 9 inches), each mounted on card within a lithographed frame with letterpress caption; each image accompanied by a page of letterpress description. Oblong folio. Original pub- lisher’s black morocco, tooled in gilt. Ownership ink stamp of Edward Weston on front flyleaf. Some minor scattered soiling. Very good. In half black morocco clamshell cases. Perhaps the most famous American photographically illustrated book, Gardner’s Photographic Sketchbook of the War contains 100 large format albumen photographs of some of the most graphic scenes of the Civil War. The photographs form an unequaled pictorial record of the war, spanning the length of the conflict, from the aftermath of action at Centerville and Manassas in 1862, to the dedication of the monument at Bull Run in June 1865. Gardner and his staff of photographers grimly documented the terrain of the battles (Bull Run, Manassas, Harpers Ferry, Gettysburg, etc.), encampments, headquarters of the troops, officers and enlisted men, soldiers in drill formation and in the field under fire, and the ruins and dead soldiers left in the countryside after the battles.
