That external organizations are willing to pay for\nHABS/HAER research is encouraging but it is not conclusive in judging effectiveness. Dollars\nreceived, after all, is an input measure; the output of any organization must still be assessed. In terms\nof HABS/HAER, the most usual output measure is that of transmittals--the number of drawings,\nphotographs and histories that are transmitted to the permanent collection. In the last twelve years\nHABS/HAER has doubled the size of its collections at the Library of Congress and is well on its\nway to tripling what existed in 1980. HABS/HAER transmittal statistics continue at very high levels,\nusually at twenty or more times the level typically experienced during the 1970s. In FY 1992, this\nmeant 573 sheets of measured drawings, 6,417 large format photographs, and 4,971 data pages.\nAnother measure is the annual production of the organization's publications. HABS/HAER currently\nhas twenty-four publications under development (the largest number produced to date, by far). In\nterms of quantity, HABS/HAER is an extremely productive government organization.\n3.\nWhat is the quality of the organization's production? Production numbers, however impressive,\ndo not indicate organizational effectiveness. Research organizations need to have their work evaluated\nin terms of quality and HABS/HAER is no different. One method is to assess the number of\npublications published by university presses and the professional press. Government publications do\nnot provide a good indication of quality, as the Government Printing Office will print whatever it is\npaid to print. University presses, on the other hand, submit proposed manuscripts to peer and\ncritical review by a publishing committee. The lack of funds requires that only the very finest of\nmanuscripts be published -- one acquisitions editor for a press that is currently publishing a\nHABS/HAER manuscript told me that she rejects 400 book proposals for every one that she accepts!\nIn this respect, HABS/HAER has forthcoming books with the Smithsonian Institution Press, the Johns\nHopkins University Press, the American Society of Civil Engineers and others. The standard work\non HABS/HAER recording is published by American Institute of Architects Press. In addition,\nHABS/HAER staff are routinely published by the professional journals dealing with historic\narchitecture, engineering and industry. HABS/HAER needs to do more in this area, but much is\nalready being accomplished. Reviews of these publications have been excellent.\n4.\nHow good is the research staff? Research organizations such as HABS/HAER are labor-intensive\nenterprises--as much of 90 percent of the annual budget goes to people. Further, this labor intensity\nis a very special kind--research is a mentally intense activity. This annual report is a compilation of\nthe many, many contributions made by HABS/HAER staff to their respective fields, their awards and\nhonors.\nJudging the effectiveness of this nation's public and private organizations is a priority for a country whose\npeople are concerned about American competitiveness and long-term economic health. The HABS/HAER\nDivision receives less direct appropriations than virtually any organization within the National Park Service\nand, perhaps, the Department of the Interior. Yet, the quantity and quality of the historical research produced\ncontinues at exceptionally high levels. The division's effectiveness can be assessed by reviewing this annual\nreport to answer the above four questions. We invite you to peruse the pages of this annual report for those\nends.\nRobert tapsch\nii\nHABS/HAER Finalizes Senior Management Positions\nIn 1992, HABS/HAER finalized all senior management positions for the division. Development of the new senior\nmanagement team began with the formalization of Eric DeLony's position as chief of HAER. Next came the\nappointment and promotion of John Burns, long-term HABS architect, as HABS/HAER deputy chief. Finally came\nthe appointment and promotion of Paul Dolinsky as chief of HABS, and Kim Hoagland as HABS senior architectural\nhistorian. This management team will stand HABS/HAER in good stead throughout the 1990s.\nRobert J. Kapsch, Ph.D., HABS/HAER Chief. Thirteen years as\ndivision chief and twenty-eight years of Federal service, where he\nserved in a number of managerial positions with a variety of Federal\nagencies, including the National Institute of Standards and\nTechnology's Center for Building Technology, departments of\nHousing and Urban Development, the U.S. Air Force, and the\nCentral Intelligence Agency. Trained as an engineer, he has\nmaster's degrees from George Washington University in\nmanagement and historic preservation. Kapsch recently completed\nthe first draft of his dissertation, \"Labor History of the Construction\nand Reconstruction of the White House, 1793-1817,\" from the\nUniversity of Maryland's American Studies Program. Award of his\nsecond doctorate is expected in 1993. Kapsch was awarded his first\nPh.D. in engineering and architecture from Catholic University in\n1983. He was an American Political Science Association\nCongressional Fellow. He is a long-time member of many\norganizations including the American Society of Civil Engineers, a\nliaison member of the AIA Committee on Historic Resources, the\nSociety of Architectural Historians, the Society for Industrial\nArcheology, the National Railway Historical Society and others.\nJohn A. Burns, AIA, HABS/HAER Deputy Chief. A graduate from\nthe Pennsylvania State University with both a bachelor of\narchitecture degree and a bachelor of arts degree in Art History, he\nhas twenty years of Federal service, starting as an architect with\nHABS and rising to become principal architect of HABS before\nbecoming deputy chief of the division in 1990. He was editor-in-\nchief for Recording Historic Structures and authored the pages on\nHABS documentation in Architectural Graphic Standards. Recently,\nhe has specialized in computer applications in architecture and\nphotogrammetry, successfully implementing the HABS/HAER\nCAD/photogrammetry laboratory. He is an active member of the\nAmerican Institute of Architects, the Society of Architectural\nHistorians, the Society for Industrial Archeology, and the\nAssociation for Preservation Technology. He has taught\npreservation courses at Marymount University and at Mount Vernon\nCollege.\niii\nEric N. DeLony, HAER Chief. A twenty-one-year veteran of\nHAER (and HAER's first professional employee), he first became\ninterested in industrial archeology as a Fulbright Scholar at the\nCenter for the Study of the History of Technology, Bath University,\nand Ironbridge. Well known for his interest in historic bridges, his\nfirst book on that subject will be published in spring 1993, by the\nAmerican Society of Civil Engineers. A graduate of Ohio State\nUniversity in architecture, DeLony is a product of Columbia\nUniversity's historic preservation program. He is a long-time and\nactive member of the Society for Industrial Archeology. DeLony is\ntrustee and vice chairman of the James Marston Fitch Charitable\nTrust, a program established by the originator and first director of\nColumbia University's program in historic preservation, and Beyer\nBlinder Belle, architects. Recently, he was appointed to the Board\nof Architectural Review, Old and Historic District, Alexandria,\nVirginia.\nPaul D. Dolinsky, HABS Chief. A fourteen-year employee of\nHABS, he has directed hundreds of HABS projects at some of the\nnation's most prestigious sites--the White House, Monticello,\nhistoric Charleston, and numerous others. He also provided the\nleadership for the very successful HABS initiative in landscape\narchitecture. A graduate of Penn State University in architecture\nand landscape architecture, he has led the way in implementing the\nCAD-photogrammetry approach to measured drawings, currently\nbeing used to document Washington, D.C.'s Lincoln and Jefferson\nmemorials. He is an active member of the American Society of\nLandscape Architects and a liaison member of the AIA Committee\non Historic Resources.\niv.\nTable of Contents\nPage\nHABS/HAER At a Glimpse\n1\nFacts and Statistics\n2\nHonors and Awards\n6\nActivities\n17\nPeople\n43\nHABS/HAER in Print and Film\n47\n1991 Recording Projects\nHABS/HAER Programs\n61\nHABS Projects\n90\nHAER Projects\n102\nMitigative Documentation Program\n118\n1993 Calendar of Events\n119\nHABS/HAER Staff Roster\nInside back cover\nAPPENDIX I - HABS/HAER 1991 Transmittals\n120\nAPPENDIX II - Hearing before the Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment of the Committee\non Interior and Insular Affairs\n135\nOM\nHABS Architect Mark Schara and HAER photographer Jet Lowe are captured in a photogrammetric image taken by the Linhof\nMetrika camera at the cornice level of the Lincoln Memorial.

The resulting drawing can be seen on page 77.\nHABS/HAER AT A GLIMPSE\nHow to Use the HABS/HAER Collections\nThe HABS/HAER collections contain documentation (measured drawings, large format photographs and histories)\non approximately 28,000 historic structures and buildings throughout America. Not all structures and buildings are\nrepresented by all three types of documentation. All HABS/HAER documentation is reproducible, copyright free,\nand available to the public. With the exception of current projects, all HABS/HAER documentation is housed in\nthe Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress (Room 339, James Madison Building, First and\nIndependence Avenue, SE, Washington, D.C. 20540). The best way to use the HABS/HAER collections is to visit\nthe Prints and Photographs Division during normal working hours (Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00\np.m.). Some recently received material may not be available for review as yet; it is advisable to contact the\nReference Desk at 202-707-6394 to be certain documentation has been processed. No appointment is necessary to\nreview processed HABS/HAER material. For out-of-town users, the HABS/HAER collections have been made\ncommercially available by the firm of Chadwyck-Healey in microfiche and are available in numerous libraries\nthroughout the United States. There are numerous catalogs, finding guides and other publications available to the\nHABS/HAER user. A list of these can be obtained from the Prints and Photographs Division.\n\"Review of 'The Historic American Buildings Survey: California and Washington, Parts One and Two':\n\"The Historic American Buildings Survey, on microfiche, is the most comprehensive record of American architecture\navailable. Parts One and Two are the complete collection of photographs, texts, and measured drawings for the most\narchitecturally significant structures found in each state. Combined with the Oregon segment, already owned by the\nlibrary, these materials constitute a major resource of primary documentation for research in architecture, historic\npreservation, art history, and history of the western United States.\"\n-- Library Notes, Vol. 8, No. 3, Spring 1992\nHow to Work for HABS/HAER\nHABS/HAER hires approximately 100-150 student architects and historians each year, most through its summer\nemployment program. Interested individuals need to submit a U.S. Government Standard Form 171, Application\nfor Federal Employment, a sample of their work, and letters of recommendation from a dean or someone familiar\nwith their work to the Summer Program Administrator, HABS/HAER, National Park Service, P.O. Box 37127,\nWashington, D.C. 20013-7127. Competition for these positions is tough on the average--one out of every eight\napplicants is selected--so individuals are encouraged to submit their best work. Applications must be postmarked\nby the cutoff date, usually the beginning of March. HABS/HAER also hires a few temporary and term positions,\nand these are advertised through normal NPS procedures. Like the rest of the historic preservation field, permanent\npositions are not readily available and are usually filled by individuals with HABS/HAER experience.\nHow to Start a HABS/HAER Project\nAll proposed HABS/HAER projects must typically meet two criteria: (1) the structure or building proposed for\ndocumentation must be nationally significant or a primary unit of the National Park Service, and (2) the project\nsponsor must be willing to assume 100 percent of the direct costs of the project. HABS/HAER projects are usually\ninitiated by contacting the chief of HABS/HAER, Robert J. Kapsch; the chief of HABS, Paul Dolinsky; or the chief\nof HAER, Eric DeLony. We also encourage donations of documentation that meet HABS/HAER standards.\n1\nFACTS AND STATISTICS\nFunding\nFY 1992\nCompared to\nCategory\nFunding\n1991\n1990\nBase Funding (Appropriations)\n$ 945,000\n+ 2.8%\n-2.7%\nAdd-On Appropriations\n444,000\n-11.7%\n-5.9%\nProject Funding (Public/Private)\n1,533,000\n+ 9.4%\n+80.7%\nTotal HABS/HAER Funding\n$2,922,000\n+ 3.5%\n+30%\nThe overall funding for HABS/HAER in FY 1992 demonstrated a 3.5 percent increase over FY 1991 levels. Base\nfunding (appropriations) showed a modest increase. For the last twelve years base funding of HABS/HAER, like\nmost Federal organizations, has remained relatively flat, expressing Congress's concern for the Federal deficit.\nHABS/HAER congressional add-ons for specific projects decreased 11.7 percent, reflecting the 1990 Andrews Air\nForce Base Officers' Club agreement between the administration and Congress to pursue progressively lower yearly\nfunding targets to balance the Federal budget -- made increasingly difficult by the subsequent recession. Other\npublic and private funding for HABS/HAER increased 9.4 percent--a healthy increase but nowhere near the 75\npercent increase experienced in FY 1991. This category now comprises two-thirds of the division's annual budget.\nThe outlook for FY 1993 is for HABS/HAER funding to be at or below the funding levels of FY 1992. Base\nfunding is expected to remain essentially the same, perhaps adjusted upwards for pay raises. Add-on appropriations\nare expected to continue to decline, reflecting the targets established in the Andrews Accords. Public-private project\nfunding is more difficult to predict, however. FY 1993 may be the first year, after twelve years of continuing\nexpansion, where HABS/HAER's budget will contract--perhaps significantly.\n3\n2.5\n2\n1.5\n1\n0.5\n0\n1987\n1988\n1989\n1990\n1991\n1992\nFiscal Year\nbase funding\nproject funding\ntotal\n2\nFACTS AND STATISTICS\nHABS/HAER In Legislation\nThe Department of the Interior Appropriations Bill for fiscal year 1992 included the following additional line\nitems for HABS/HAER:\n*\n$197,000 for continuation of HAER work in support of America's Industrial Heritage Project\n(AIHP). Under the leadership of HAER Engineer/Historian G. Gray Fitzsimons, this is the\nfifth year of HAER support to the nine-county area of Pennsylvania comprising AIHP.\n*\n$494,000 for the West Virginia Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial\nArchaeology, under the leadership of its director, Dr. Emory Kemp.\n*\nIn a late development in the Fiscal 1992 appropriations bill, Congress approved $247,000 to\nfund HABS/HAER work in Birmingham, Alabama. HAER's early work on steel and iron\nmanufacturing in Birmingham led to National Historic Landmark designation and successful\npreservation of the Sloss Furnace in 1981. HAER Chief Eric N. DeLony is the program\nmanager.\nMr Bourn\nLeft-right, Ford Peatross, curator of architectural design and engineering collection, Library of Congress; John E.\nDurrant, district director, district four, American Society of Civil Engineerings; Rowland Bowers, deputy associate\ndirector for cultural resources, National Park Service; and Susan Maxman, first vice president, the American\nInstitute of Architects, testify on behalf of HABS/HAER at the oversight hearings before the Subcommittee on Energy\nand the Environment, Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, House of Representatives, held in Philadelphia, PA,\non May 11. See page 18 and Appendix Il for more information on hearings.\n3\nFACTS AND STATISTICS\nHABS/HAER Collections\nIn 1992, the HABS/HAER collections passed the 28,000 mark for number of historic sites and structures\ndocumented. HABS/HAER transmitted documentation on 1,031 historic sites and structures to the Prints and\nPhotographs Division of the Library of Congress. The HABS/HAER collections are primarily known for their\ndrawings, photographs and histories, but these collections also include field notes, photogrammetric plates and\nother forms of documentation useful to HABS/HAER users. Collection management is under the supervision\nof Georgette R. Wilson. The size of the collections, as of October 1, 1992, were:\nHABS\nHAER\nTotal\nNo. of historic structures\n-\n24,417\n3,600\n28,017\nNo. of sheets of drawings\n-\n46,759\n2,084\n48,843\nNo. of large format photographs\n-\n112,571\n35,471\n147,992\nNo. of data pages\n-\n60,357\n28,027\n88,384\nUse of the Collections\nThe HABS/HAER collections at the Library of Congress are the most widely used of all of its special\ncollections. According to an informal study done a number of years ago, authors, publishers, and doctoral\ncandidates represented about 40 percent of the users. Another 40 percent were composed of architects,\nengineers, historians, planners and others who were going to undertake work on a specific site or structure\nrecorded by HABS/HAER. The remaining users were model builders, house builders, and others.\nStudents\nHABS/HAER has employed more than 2,500 architects, historians and photographers over the years,\napproximately one-quarter of whom were employed in the last decade (about 100 of whom were from other\ncountries). Most were students, usually undertaking their first professional work experience. In fiscal year\n1992, HABS/HAER employed 110 students, nineteen of which were from other countries (see page 15).\nStudent employment with HABS/HAER is very competitive. During this fiscal year, for example, only one\narchitectural student was selected for every eight who applied; for historians, one in ten.\nProjects\nFiscal 1992 was a record-high year for HABS/HAER recording, continuing a trend established almost ten\nyears ago. HABS/HAER projects are selected on the basis of two criteria: (1) the resource proposed for\ndocumentation must be nationally significant and useful in explaining, understanding and explicating America's\narchitectural and engineering heritage, and (2) the cosponsor provides 100 percent of the project's direct costs.\nHABS/HAER projects are normally initiated through direct contact with the chiefs of HABS/HAER. A\nmemorandum of agreement is entered into, covering the scope of the project.\n4\nHONORS AND AWARDS\nTHE WHITE HOUSE\nWASHINGTON\nDecember 4, 1992\nI am delighted to send greetings to all those who\nare gathered in Washington, D.C. as the Advisory\nCouncil on Historic Preservation presents the\nNational Historic Preservation Awards and the\nPresident's Historic Preservation Awards.\nAmerica's historic buildings, grounds, and\nmonuments embody our national identity, and we\nowe a special tribute to those who help to\npreserve them. The men and women who are being\nhonored on this occasion, and all who participate\nin this vital work, serve as guardians of our\nheritage -- of the events, ideals, and individuals\nthat have shaped our collective history. In\nsafeguarding this history they perform another\ncrucial service as well: they help to unify our\npeople by recalling our common link to a rich and\ndistinguished past.\nThis year, as we commemorate both the National\nHistoric Preservation Act of 1966 and the 200th\nanniversary of the White House, I am especially\npleased to salute those individuals who are\ncommitted to protecting the architectural symbols\nand cultural resources of our Nation and her\npeople.\nBarbara joins me in sending best wishes for an\nenjoyable awards ceremony.\nPresidential letter to winners of the President's Historic Preservation Award, of which HAER was a recipient. See\narticle on page 16.\n5\nHONORS AND AWARDS\n1992 Peterson Prize winners at the\nawards ceremony are (left to right),\nKevin Milstead (University of Texas at\nAustin), Marc Roehrle (University of\nVirginia), Brian Ambroziak (University\nof Virginia), Mira Metzinger (University\nof Illinois), William Meredith\n(University of Illinois), Michelle\nBrancaeleone (University of Illinois),\nand Timothy Sheridan (University of\nIllinois).\nPhotographer: Christopher Gribbs,\n1993\n1992 Peterson Prize Winners\nThe Historic American Buildings Survey and The Athenaeum of Philadelphia announced the winners of the\n1992 Charles E. Peterson Prize at the November meeting of the American Institute of Architects' Committee\non Historic Resources in Charlottesville, Virginia. The Peterson Prize is an annual award for the best sets\nof architectural measured drawings of an historic building produced by students and given to the Historic\nAmerican Buildings Survey. The prize honors Charles E. Peterson, FAIA, founder of the HABS program,\nand is intended to increase awareness and knowledge of historic buildings throughout the United States. The\ndrawings are deposited in the HABS Collection in the Library of Congress.\nFirst Place and a $1,500 award was won by a team of fourteen students: Michelle Brancaleone, Gary Cole,\nChristopher Colson, Michael Coonen, Bryan Fish, Lisa Jaracz, Sheila McCarthy, William Meridith, Mira\nMetzinger, Elizabeth Rutherford, Timothy Sheridan, Gerald Sullivan, Steven Turner, and John Yopp from\nthe School of Architecture at the University of Illinois. They produced drawings of the Macoupin County\nCourthouse in Carlinville, Illinois. The Macoupin County Courthouse was designed in 1867 by architect\nElijah Meyers, who later would design the Michigan, Colorado, and Texas state capitols. Capped by a\nmonumental dome nearly 40' in diameter, this Renaissance Revival courthouse is the dominant architectural\nfeature in the small town of Carlinville. Faculty sponsor for the team was Professor John S. Garner.\nThe $1,000 award for Second Place was won by seventeen students from the School of Architecture at the\nUniversity of Texas at Austin and the College of Architecture at the University of Houston: Melissa Barnett,\nCarolyn Campbell, Quana Childs, Hugo Gardea, Linda Glaze, Diane Gray, Monica Griesbach, Dana Hutt,\nBarre Klapper, Theiu Luong, Kent Millard, Kevin Milstead, Laura Ostlind, David Payne, Matthew Rodda,\nMyoe Than, and Tara Travis. Faculty sponsors were Professors Wayne Bell, FAIA, and Barry Moore, AIA.\nThe students produced drawings of the Neuhaus Complex, which includes three buildings built by a German\nimmigrant family: a two-story fachwerk homestead, a stone general store, and a Greek Revival wood frame\nhouse. The Neuhaus Complex illustrates the contribution of one German immigrant family to the settlement\nof Hackberry in Lavaca County, Texas.\n6\nHONORS AND AWARDS\nThe $750 award for Third Place was given to Brian M. Ambroziak, Salvatore J. Canciello, and Marc A.\nRoehrle of the University of Virginia's School of Architecture. The students produced measured drawings\nof Barclay House, the brick Federal-style home of Dr. James Turner Barclay. In 1850, Dr. Barclay founded\nthe Disciples Church in Scottsville, Virginia. The Barclay House is listed in the National Register of Historic\nPlaces. The faculty sponsor for this documentation project was Professor K. Edward Lay.\nIn addition to the top prizes, the jury awarded three other entries Honorable Mention in the competition. They\nwere:\nSchool:\nUniversity of Southwestern Louisiana\nStudents:\nSteven Becnel, John Campbell, Mark Connor, Britt Herring, Wang Qian,\nChee Siew, and Steve Wright\nFaculty Sponsor:\nProfessor Dan P. Branch, AIA\nBuilding:\nCrowell Lumber Mill, Longleaf, Louisiana\nSchool:\nTexas A & M University\nStudents:\nMark Brooks, Donna Kacmar, David Knapp, David Hawthorne, Ronn\nPhillips, and Charles Smith\nFaculty Sponsor:\nProfessor David G.

Peterson Prize is a joint program of HABS, The Atheneum of Philadelphia and the American\nInstitute of Architects. Each year, the jury selecting the Charles E. Peterson Prize winners is composed of\nrepresentatives from these organizations. The 1992 jurors were Bruce Laverty from The Athenaeum of\nPhiladelphia; Donald Swofford, AIA, representing the AIA's Committee on Historic Resources; and Herbert\nLevy, FAIA, a Philadelphia architect representing HABS.\nIt was an excellent year for the Peterson Prize competition. There were a total of twenty entries from fifteen\nuniversities. Sixteen of the entries are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The 156 students who\nparticipated produced 251 measured drawings for inclusion in the HABS collection.\nThe monies for these prizes come from a special fund administered by Roger Moss, executive director, The\nAthenaeum of Philadelphia, initially established in 1983 through donations made by Friends of Charles E.\nPeterson, to honor his 75th birthday in 1981, and the cash award accompanying the 1983 National Trust for\nHistoric Preservation Crowninshield Award made to HABS.\nThe Charles E.

Sanford of the University of Oregon was this year's winner of the Sally Kress Tompkins Fellowship,\ncosponsored by the Society of Architectural Historians (SAH) and HABS/HAER. The Sally Kress Tompkins\nFellowship, established in memory of the former deputy chief of HABS/HAER, permits an architectural\nhistorian to work on a HABS summer team. A SAH-HABS jury was composed of curator Ford Peatross from\nthe Library of Congress, Judith Lanius from the Society of Architectural Historians, and senior historian Kim\nHoagland from HABS/HAER. They selected Dena Sanford based on her thesis, which analyzed Finnish\nhomesteads in Montana. Sanford worked on the HABS team in Natchez, Mississippi, documenting the\nantebellum house of a free black man, William Johnson. Sanford was presented with the fellowship award\nby HABS/HAER Deputy Chief John A. Burns, AIA, at the business meeting of the Society of Architectural\nHistorians' annual meeting, April 1-5, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Funds for this fellowship are\nadministered by David Bahlman, executive director, Society of Architectural Historians.\nThose wishing to contribute to the Sally Kress Tompkins Fund may do so by sending their checks to the Sally\nKress Tompkins Fund, c/o David Bahlman, Executive Director, Society of Architectural Historians, 1232 Pine\nStreet, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107-5944.

What resulted was the Council of American Maritime\nMuseums (CAMM)/HAER Sally Kress Tompkins Maritime Internship. Half of the funding is contributed by\nCAMM and half by HAER. The fund is administered by Peter Neill, South Street Seaport Museum, on behalf\nof CAMM.\nThe first CAMM/HAER Sally Kress Tompkins Maritime Intern, selected in 1992, was Karl Bodensiek of\nRoger Williams College in Bristol, Rhode Island. Karl worked as a member of the HAER team that prepared\ndrawings of the bow of the Clipper ship SNOW SQUALL, at the Spring Point Museum at South Portland,\nMaine. The drawings, which are archeological in character because the only remains are sections of the bow,\nwill aid in understanding clipper ship design and construction, and will be used by the museum to curate and\ninterpret the SNOW SQUALL bow as an exhibit.\nKenneth L. Anderson Award\nKenneth L. Anderson, Jr., former chief of the HABS, passed away on September 18, 1991. In his\nmemory, HABS, in cooperation with the Department of Architecture at Texas Tech University, his alma\nmater, has established the Kenneth L. Anderson Memorial Fund. The fund will provide a monetary gift\nto a student who produces the finest set of measured drawings to HABS standards of a Texas structure,\ndonated for inclusion in the HABS collection in the Library of Congress. The competition is open to all\nstudents from the five accredited schools of architecture in Texas.\nFor further information, and for those wishing to make a donation, contact: Professor John White,\nDepartment of Architecture, P.O. Box 4140, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, Texas 79409.\nHAER/SIA Fellowship Awarded\nThe recipient of the HAER/Society for Industrial Archeology (SIA) fellowship was Susan Appel of Illinois\nState University for research, travel, writing time, and supplementary materials in preparation of a publication\non the architectural history of the pre-Prohibition brewery. Her work centers on the cities of Chicago,\nMilwaukee, Cincinnati, and St. Louis, and thus document the Midwest's contribution to this significant\nAmerican building type.

Bodensiek, 1992.\nHONORS AND AWARDS\nDE\nDean A. Herrin\nKenneth D. Rose\nHAER Historians Awarded Doctorates\nDean Herrin, HAER staff historian, received his doctorate in American history from the University of\nDelaware in January 1992. He was a fellow in the Hagley Program in the History of Industrial America, a\nprogram jointly sponsored by the Hagley Museum and the University of Delaware's History Department. His\ndissertation was titled \"Breaking the Stillness': The Coal Industry and the Transformation of Appalachian\nVirginia, 1880 - 1920.\" Herrin is currently the supervisory historian on the Mon Valley program, Wright-\nPatterson Air Force Base, and other projects.\nKenneth D. Rose received his master's degree from the University of Washington in 1985 and, in 1986, was\nadmitted into the doctoral program in history at the University of California, Los Angeles. He completed his\ndoctorate in fall 1992, while working for HAER. Rose's duties have centered on the production and\npublication of industrial inventories of the nine-county region of the America's Industrial Heritage Project in\nsouthwest Pennsylvania. He is currently revising his dissertation, \"American Women and the Repeal of\nProhibition,\" for publication.\n14\nHONORS AND AWARDS\nUS/ICOMOS and HABS/HAER\nIn 1992, the HABS/HAER/ICOMOS intern program was once again in full swing. This year, nineteen\nstudents from fifteen countries made major contributions to this summer's documentation program. The\nexchange program, established by HABS/HAER and US/ICOMOS in 1984, is under the overall direction of\nTerry B. Morton, president, US/ICOMOS, and Russell V. Keune, vice president for programs, US/ICOMOS.\nEllen Delage, program officer, US/ICOMOS, administers the intern program, which locates qualified\napplicants through the various ICOMOS committees in the participating countries. The program is\nadministered at HABS/HAER by Deputy Chief John Burns. Since the program's inception in 1984,\nHABS/HAER has sponsored 108 interns from eighteen countries -- HABS/HAER remaining, by far, the\nlargest sponsor of ICOMOS interns. Once they have applied, the applicants are evaluated by the same criteria\nas their American counterparts and must possess equivalent skills in their chosen disciplines. They are also\npaid a stipend equivalent to that of their American coworkers. HABS/HAER transferred approximately\n$79,000 to US/ICOMOS in fiscal year 1992 to support the stipends paid to these interns.\n1992 US/ICOMOS-HABS/HAER Summer Interns\nArgentina\nHungary\nDaniella Trettel, National University of Cordoba\nAtilla Kovacs, Technical University of Budapest\nAustria\nItaly\nAlbert Aflenzer, Technical University of Vienna\nElena Garlini, Graduate School of Architecture,\nVenice; Columbia University\nBulgaria\nOrlin K.

Deemed exceptional by the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation,\npresenter of the award under the auspices of the White House, the HAER project was recognized for\nidentifying the importance of the prefabricated metal truss bridge as one of the nation's greatest engineering\nand manufacturing achievements, and compiling a visual record of it before federal and state bridge-\nreplacement programs destroyed them.\nBridges became the first category of historic resources to be comprehensively inventoried by HAER and listed\nin the National Register of Historic Places. As the result of the HAER project and increased public awareness\nof the bridges' importance, their replacement has substantially decreased.\nEric DeLony, chief of HAER and an expert on historic U.S. bridges, accepted the award at a December 1992\nceremony in Washington, D.C., in the Cash Room in the U.S. Treasury Building. DeLony has compiled the\nvolume Landmark American Bridges, to be published by the American Society of Civil Engineers later this\nyear.\n\" You are doing important work, and we are privileged to view it first-hand. ASCE is proud of our\nassociation with HAER, and I am particularly pleased that we have several joint projects in the works.\"\n- James E. McCarty, P.E., President, American Society of Civil Engineers in a\nNovember 17, 1992, letter to HABS/HAER Chief Robert Kapsch\n\"Held in Common,\" HABS/HAER Exhibition Receives Recognition\n\"Held in Common: Historic Architecture in America's National Parks,\" another current exhibition\nat the [National Building Museum], honors the National Park Service on its 75th anniversary.\nThe show is a photo-and-text narrative that succinctly proves its point: Buildings in astonishing\nvariety and number (more than 20,000 of them) make up an important aspect of the Park Service\nmission, which is usually thought of exclusively in terms of preserving the natural environment. It\nis a delightful, absorbing, compact story. One begins at the beginning, with the archaeological\nremains of ancient Anasazi religious structures--kivas--in the Frijoles Canyon of Bandelier National\nMonument in New Mexico, and arrives in our own time with the Victorian mansions and shotgun\nhouses of the Martin Luther King National Historic Site in the Sweet Auburn section of Atlanta. In\nbetween are stops at Skagway, Alaska, site of the Klondike gold rush; the Lowell, Mass., cotton\nmills; the fabulous Old Faithful Inn at Yellowstone; and other terrific sites.\n-- Benjamin Forgey, The Washington Post,\nDecember 14, 1991.\nThe exhibition was on display at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C., December 6, 1991, to\nFebruary 2, 1992. Developed by HABS/HAER historian Caroline R. Bedinger, the exhibition is currently traveling\nto other locations by way of the Harper's Ferry Travelling Exhibit Program.\n16\nACTIVITIES\nHISTORIC AMERICAN\nSURVEY\nHISTORIC AMERICAN\nENGINEERING RECORD\nDr Washington Dost\n-\nAbove, HABS/HAER collections management specialist Georgette Wilson and collections management assistant\nMonica Paprocki set up exhibit at the National Archives, commemorating the transfer of HABS/HAER records to the\narchives. For more information on the transfer of records and exhibit, see page 24. Photographer: Amy Young, 1992.\n17\nACTIVITIES\nCongressional Hearings\nOn May 11, 1992, an oversight hearing was held before the subcommittee on Energy and the Environment\nof the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs at the First Bank of the United States in Philadelphia on the\nHistoric American Buildings Survey/Historic American Engineering Record (HABS/HAER), Chairman Peter\nH. Kostmayer presiding.\nThis was the first congressional oversight hearing held on HABS/HAER. In his opening statement, Kostmayer\nstated that the reason for the hearing was to review \"the ability of HABS and HAER to respond to new\nprojects\" in light of \"infrequent and small appropriation increases over the past years,\" and to review the\n\"advisory boards for HABS and HAER [that] were sunsetted in the 1970s,\" and \"the need to reestablish these\nnoncompensated advisory boards.\"\nOral testimony was presented by Susan Maxman, first vice president of the American Institute of Architects;\nRowland Bowers, deputy director, Cultural Resources, National Park Service, accompanied by Robert Kapsch,\nchief of HABS/HAER; John Burns, AIA, deputy chief of HABS/HAER; and Paul Dolinsky, chief of HABS;\nJohn E. Durrant, district director, District Four, American Society of Civil Engineers, accompanied by\nEdward Kuchefski, director of the Fairmont Water Works Interpretative Center, Philadelphia Water\nDepartment; and Ford Peatross, curator of Architectural and Engineering Collections, Library of Congress.\nAdditional testimony was provided by David Bahlman, executive director, Society of Architectural Historians;\nand Jeff Marshall, director of historic preservation, Bucks County Conservancy. Additional written testimony\nwas provided by Congressman Neil Abercrombie, D-Hawaii; and James P. Cramer, executive vice\npresident/CEO, American Institute of Architects, among others.\nA congressional hearing on a program as small as HABS/HAER (with a budget of less than $1 million a year)\nis extraordinary. Congressional hearings usually focus on much larger subjects. The single most prevalent\nissue throughout the hearing was the need to reestablish the HABS/HAER advisory committees. The second\nmost important issue was the need to increase the funding level of the HABS/HAER appropriation.\nThe proceedings of this hearing were published by the U.S. Government Printing Office and are for sale by\nthe Superintendent of Documents, Congressional Sales Office, Washington, D.C. 20402 (ISBN 0-16-039245-\n4). For the convenience of our readers, this material has been reproduced as Appendix II.\n\"Because of their holistic approach and extraordinary vision, these programs have brought about an increased awareness of\npreservation needs and preservation technology. In the initial memorandum from Charles Peterson, architect with the National\nPark Service, to his superiors, he stated that such a survey, 'should be a list of building sites which include public buildings,\nchurches, residences, bridges, forts, barns, mills, shops, rural outbuildings, and any other kind of structure of which there are\ngood specimens extant and those structures which by fate or accident are identified with historic events.'\"\n\"Due to the infrequent and small appropriation increases over the past few years and the increasing costs of carrying out its\nmission, the ability of HABS and HAER to respond to new projects is now in serious jeopardy.\"\n--Hon. Peter H. Kostmayer (PA), Chairman of the Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment\n18\nACTIVITIES\nHABS/HAER Activities at Library of Congress\nA six-month project that expands access to HABS/HAER's data base for the staff at the Library of Congress'\nPrints and Photographs Division was initiated in August 1992. The project, developed and implemented by\nCollections Management Specialist Georgette R. Wilson, will facilitate the processing of HABS/HAER\ndrawings, photographs, and histories transmitted to the Prints and Photographs Division. The increased\napplication of HABS/HAER's data base will benefit researchers and the interested public by providing library\nstaff with the ability to conduct data-base searches, print updated reports, and implement time-saving steps\nfor processing materials. After six months, the project will be reviewed and evaluated, and final procedures\nwill be instituted.\nIn FY 1992, the collections management section increased transmittals to the Prints and Photographs Division\nby 51 percent over FY 1991 numbers. This extensive documentation was reviewed, edited and collated by\nKathryn Jackson, HABS/HAER administrative assistant.\nThis past year, the Prints and Photographs Division increased its staff, so that it is now possible for the\ncollection to become available to researchers more quickly. HABS/HAER benefitted from this through the\nassignment of processing assistants Megan Keister and Greg Marcangelo to maintain the HABS/HAER\ncollections, with temporary part-time help from Vickie Crawley, Kurt Helfrich, and Alberta Prosser. Under\nthe supervision of Helena Zinkham, head of the processing section, and in consultation with C. Ford Peatross\nand Cristina Carbone, curators of the Architecture, Design, and Engineering (ADE) Collections, and Marilyn\nIbach, reference specialist in architecture, this team processed eleven states and accessioned four batches of\nHABS/HAER transmittals consisting of photographs, drawings, histories, and field notes on more than 100\nstructures. Chadwyck-Healey continued to copy the material onto microfiche for distribution.\nOn July 8, HABS/HAER conducted a tour of the HABS Harpers Ferry summer team and the CAD\nphotogrammetry laboratory to familiarize the library staff with manual and automated recording technologies.\nThose attending were Cristina Carbone, curator, Curatorial Division; Karen Chittenden, cataloger, Processing\nSection; Vicki Crawley, processing assistant, Processing Section; Kurt Halfich, summer intern; Tracy\nMeeleib, processing assistant, Processing Section; Anne Mitchell, processing assistant, Processing Section;\nDiane Tepfer, research assistant, Curatorial Division; Megan Keister, and Greg Marcangelo. They were\naccompanied by Robert Kapsch and Caroline R. Bedinger of HABS/HAER.\nThe Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division, under the leadership of Chief Stephen Ostrow, and\nAssistant Chief Elisabeth Parker, has made immense advances in staffing and in processing record numbers\nof HABS/HAER documentation being sent to the library. It hasn't been too many years since Mary Ison and\nC. Ford Peatross were the sole Prints and Photographs staff responsible for HABS/HAER records. The\nincrease in staffing should eliminate the backlog of transmittals dating from the 1980s.\n19\nACTIVITIES\nHAER and SHOT Establish a Cooperative Agreement for Fellowship Program\nHAER and the Society for the History of Technology (SHOT) established a cooperative agreement in 1992.\nThe principal purpose of this agreement is to forge a closer working relationship with SHOT, an international\norganization composed of leading scholars in technological history. Specifically, HAER and SHOT will\ninitiate a history fellowship program which will provide funds for historical studies concerned with material\nculture. A HAER/SHOT committee will be established to evaluate proposals from graduate and post-graduate\nstudents for funding consideration. The committee will encourage studies that encompass not merely\ndescriptive material on specific industrial sites or technologies but that analyze and link such material to\nbroader contextual issues of technology and society. Based either in the HAER Washington, D.C., office or\nthe field, each fellow will receive $2,500 per month, with funding available from one to eight months. A call\nfor proposals will be issued through SHOT and selections will be made in FY 1993. The HAER staff\ninvolved in the HAER/SHOT agreement includes historians Gray Fitzsimons and Dean Herrin, and Chief Eric\nDeLony, as well as Chief Robert Kapsch. SHOT members Martin Reuss, Carroll Pursell, and Jeffrey Stein\ngreatly assisted in establishing this program. All look forward to many years of fruitful work on a variety\nof history projects. Individuals interested in this program should write to Eric DeLony, Chief, Historic\nAmerican Engineering Record, National Park Service, P.O. Box 37127, Washington, D.C. 20013-7127.\nCAD/Photogrammetry Lab Update\nOver the past two years, HABS/HAER has built a capability for both photogrammetry and computer-aided\ndrafting, or CAD. The HABS/HAER CAD/Photogrammetry Laboratory started with five computer work\nstations linked in a network, with a high-resolution digitizing table and photogrammetric software loaded on\none of the stations. Four of the work stations are Hewlett-Packard Vectra 486/25T computers, while the fifth\nis a 486/33T. All have 8MB RAM, 80MB hard drives, 1.2MB 5.25\" floppy drives, and 20\" high resolution\nmonitors. The file server is a Compaq Deskpro 386/20 with a 300MB hard drive. A 300MB tape backup\nand an uninterruptible power supply help to protect the system. The operating language is MS-DOS 5.0, the\nnetwork software is Novell Netware, Version 2.2, and the CAD program is AutoCAD, Release 11, all\nNational Park Service standards. A Versatec \"B\" size (11\" X 17\") laser plotter is used for small plots, while\nthe final, archival plots of the measured drawings are made on a laser plotter by a reprographics service.\nWith the exception of the photogrammetric cameras and digitizing software, all the hardware and software\nare readily available, off-the-shelf products.\nThe photogrammetric camera system consists of two Linhof Metrika 45 cameras, one with a 90mm lens and\nthe other with a 150mm lens. The Metrikas are semi-metric cameras that produce negatives meeting\nHABS/HAER standards (they produce 4\" X 5\" negatives on 5\" roll film). The 90mm lens is considered a\nwide angle, the 150mm a normal focal length. Both lenses have click stops on their focusing rings, so they\ncan be locked at known focal distances. A glass plate with a reseau grid (a pattern of cross hairs) is held\nagainst the film by a vacuum at the moment of exposure so that the grid is superimposed on the negative.\nThe optical characteristics of the lenses and reseau grids are measured and plotted so that the optical\ndistortions in the camera do not compromise the accuracy of measurements taken from the photographs. This\ncamera calibration data is part of the survey control. They were the first cameras of their type sold in the\nUnited States. The photogrammetric software is Desktop Photogrammetry's Photocad-Multi for three-\ndimensional measurements and Photocad-Single for two-dimensional (planar) measurements. Both programs\noperate from a pull-down menu within AutoCAD and the resulting drawings are AutoCAD files. The software\nuses mathematical algorithms to locate the known points in three-dimensional space. Once the three-\n20\nACTIVITIES\ndimensional model is established and verified, other points can be digitized and measured from the\nphotographs and a CAD drawing produced.\nFor three-dimensional use, a structure is photographed from a minimum of three camera stations, usually from\nleft-of-center, center, and right-of-center. Targets are placed in the field of view as common reference points\namong the photographs. At least one known dimension must also be visible in common among the three\nviews, as well as a minimum of seven other common points. Dimensions are extracted by digitizing from\nenlargements of the photographs. Drawings are generated by connecting a series of points identified on the\nphotographs with lines. For curved elements, the closer the points are spaced, the higher the ultimate\nresolution and accuracy, and the smoother the curved lines of the drawing. An Altek AC30 Datab 24\" X 36\",\nhigh resolution (0.001\" resolution with +0.003\" absolute accuracy), continuously variable backlit digitizing\ntable, with a bullseye reticle pickup sensor and 5X magnifier, is used to digitize the enlargements. For two-\ndimensional use, only a single photograph is needed as long as you have known coordinates in real space for\nthe four points in the plane to be digitized. The two-dimensional program is ideal for extracting dimensions\nin a single plane and for low-relief surfaces because the drawing is generated by tracing outlines and edges\nin that plane rather than by connecting a series of points as in the three-dimensional program.\nWe have found that CAD/Photogrammetry drawings that include decorative features, such as the relief\ncarvings in the frieze of the Lincoln Memorial, require an enormous amount of memory because one is\nessentially plotting topographic lines by connecting a series of points with short lines. The ornament carving\nfor a single stone of the Lincoln Memorial frieze requires 2MB of memory, making the drawing file for the\nwhole elevation enormous, which slows down the CAD program. The result is that we are producing CAD\nfiles far larger than architects normally produce (i.e., orthographic drawings) and more like civil engineering\nCAD files that include topographic data. The problem is especially acute when drawing files increase beyond\n6MB in size. We are exploring software solutions such as freezing portions of the drawings, turning off\nlayers, etc. We are also increasing the RAM memory to 16MB in each work station.\nHowever, these improvements will provide only incremental increases in computational speed, so we are\npurchasing a Hewlett-Packard Apollo 900 Model 730 UNIX workstation with a 66MHz DPA-RISC processor,\n64MB RAM, 84 MB of disk space, and a 19\" color graphic display. Two Hewlett-Packard HP700/RX\nterminals with 19\" color monitors, and a Series 6400 Model 2000DC tape backup that uses Digital Audio\nTechnology (DAT) to store up to eight gigabytes of compressed data files, will complete the new UNIX\nsystem. The increase in computing power from an MS-DOS 486/33 to a UNIX machine is significant. We\nexpect that most CAD needs will continue to be met by our existing 486/25 and 486/33 computers with the\nadditional 16MB of RAM. The capabilities of the UNIX stations will be most apparent with the largest and\nmost complex drawing files requiring the most computational power. We will upgrade the DOS stations to\nAutoCAD 12 when we add the UNIX version of AutoCAD to the new work stations. We are also upgrading\nthe network to Novell Netware version 3.11 with a Novell NFS to link the UNIX system to our existing\nnetwork.\n21\nACTIVITIES\nWest Virginia University Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial Archaeology\nThe Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial Archaeology at West Virginia University is an\ninterdisciplinary professional and academic institute supporting public and private research, educational\nprograms and projects concerned with the history of technology, industrial archaeology, and the preservation\nof engineering works. Since its inception in 1989, the institute has been the recipient of annual federal\nappropriations administered through a cooperative agreement between the institute and HABS/HAER.\nAdditionally, the institute undertakes public and private contract research in a variety of areas. This year's\nfederal appropriation of $494,000 is currently supplemented by $314,106 in sponsored contract work.\nAn advisory committee involving leading agencies concerned with cultural resource management issues\napproves the institute's congressionally appropriated budget and work plan. Members of the committee are\nKatherine H. Stevenson, associate regional director, Mid-Atlantic Regional Office, NPS; Randy Cooley,\ndirector, Southwestern Pennsylvania Heritage Preservation Commission (formerly America's Industrial\nHeritage Project); Steven Lubar, curator, Division of Engineering and History, Museum of American History,\nSmithsonian Institution; Martin Reuss, senior historian, Office of History, Corps of Engineers; William M.\nDrennen, commissioner, Division of Culture and History, State of West Virginia; Brent D. Glass, executive\ndirector, Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission; David A. Simmons, Timeline, Ohio Historical\nQuarterly; Gerald E. Lang, dean, College of Arts and Sciences, West Virginia University; Ronald L. Lewis,\nchair, Department of History, West Virginia University; William W. Reeves, secretary, West Virginia\nUniversity Research Corporation; and Robert J. Kapsch, chief, HABS/HAER, NPS.\nProfessionally, the institute employs a cadre of historians, delineators, engineers, architects, drafting specialists\nand landscape specialists, several of whom are veterans of HABS/HAER summer teams. The work of the\nInstitute continues a long tradition of cooperation between West Virginia University and HABS/HAER, which\nbegan with Emory Kemp's involvement in 1972. Kemp, founder and director of the institute, has worked on\na number of HABS/HAER projects since that time. This tradition of cooperation continues to the present,\nexemplified in the fact that the institute had dedicated $114,651 to HABS/HAER documentation over the past\nthree years. Specifically, it sponsored 1990 documentation of nineteenth-century industry in Wheeling and\nFairmont, West Virginia, historic nineteenth-century cast and wrought-iron bridges in Pennsylvania in 1991,\nand a similar historic bridge project in Ohio in 1992.\nStudies in the history of technology are one area of emphasis for the institute. A monograph series in the\nhistory of technology is ongoing, and the first installment, The Alexandria Canal: Its History and\nPreservation, has just been published. Other important projects technology include a video production airing\non Public Broadcasting Service on covered bridges of the Virginias; a National Register of Historic Places\nnomination and landscape survey of Skyline Drive in the Shenandoah National Park, and a historic furnishing\nreport for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway's depot at Thurmond, West Virginia.\nOne of the institute's major successes of 1992 involved the first-ever field school in the techniques of\nindustrial archeology. This six-week summer course, conducted in West Virginia's eastern panhandle, was\ntaken by nine students for graduate credit through the WVU Department of History. Under the auspices of\nEmory Kemp and Billy Joe Peyton (HAER Alumnus), institute staffers John Nicely, Lee Maddex\n[HABS/HAER alumnus], and Edward Winant instructed students in the preparation of work to HABS/HAER\nstandards. Components of the course included mapping and surveying, preparation of field sketches and\nmeasured drawings, large format archival photography, and researching local history. After one-and-a-half\nweeks in the field, each student prepared measured drawings and large format archival photographs of select\n22\nACTIVITIES\nremains of water-powered industry on Virginius Island in Harpers' Ferry National Historical Park and the\nhistoric Boteler/Shepherdstown Cement Mill in Shepherdstown. The experience proved intensive and\nchallenging, while it offered real-life experience in the world of historic-site recording and prepared\nparticipants for potential work in the field. Final results were excellent, and plans are being made for the next\nfield school, to be held in 1994.\nPerhaps the major accomplishment in the industrial archeology recording arena for 1992 is a book being\npublished by Krieger Publishing Company. Prepared by the Institute and field tested and critiqued by field\nschool students, it contains eleven essays prepared by leading professionals in the field on techniques of\nindustrial archeology. Student drawings from the class are also included as illustrative material. The book\nis intended to be suitable for use by professionals and amateurs alike.\nA pioneering project dealing with the preservation of engineering works is also underway at the Institute. This\nmulti-year project is being accomplished in cooperation with the Constructed Facilities Center at West Virginia\nUniversity's College of Engineering, and involves non-destructive testing of historic building materials.\nCurrent technology allows accurate testing of physical properties of building materials through destructive\ntesting only. For this reason, the institute is extremely interested in developing non-destructive techniques\nwhich can be portable in nature and used in the field. Miniaturized field-testing equipment is now under\ndevelopment which can be used to investigate and determine the physical properties of wood, cast and wrought\niron, steel, and masonry structures. Thus far, results on historic cast and wrought iron have proved\nencouraging and compare favorably with traditional destructive testing methods.\nInitial field tests on nineteenth-century wooden covered bridges in West Virginia have been completed. More\ntests are being considered on the Wheeling Suspension Bridge, a National Historic Landmark and the world's\nlongest suspension bridge when built, as well as the 1859 Wheeling Custom House, a structure that utilizes\nan all-ircn framing system. After further field testing, it is anticipated that the equipment will eventually be\nmarketed to the preservation community for use in a wide variety of structures.\nAs witnessed by its wide range of activities, the Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial\nArchaeology is now coming of age as a national center in the history of technology, industrial archeology,\nand the preservation of engineering works. As time passes, and the institute continues to grow and mature,\nand it is anticipated that the level of cooperation with HABS/HAER will reach new heights. As it does, the\nmutual benefits to each organization will increase accordingly.\n23\nACTIVITIES\nHistorically Black Colleges and Universities Initiative\nHABS/HAER transferred funds to the National Trust for Historic Preservation to further minority careers in\nthe field of historic preservation. The Tuskegee Institute in Alabama and Howard University in Washington,\nD.C., received funds to assist with the expenses relating to the development and implementation of HABS\nmeasured-drawings courses. Howard's program, under the instruction of Edward D. Dunson, AIA, associate\npofessor of achitecture, offered the course in the spring semester of 1992. Ten students are currently enrolled\nin the course. Tuskegee offered the course in summer of 1992, taught by HABS Alumna Kim Harden, AIA.\nHoward University Internship Program\nSince October 1991, HABS/HAER has offered two internships each year for minority students enrolled in the\narchitecture program at Howard University. Albert Debnam, Nichole Duren, Crystal Willingham, and\nSanford Garner have worked in the HABS/HAER offices, gaining practical experience in documentation skills.\nUnder the auspices of their cooperative agreement, HABS/HAER and Howard University are proud to offer\nthis opportunity to architecture students again in 1993.\nNational Archives Establishes Record Group for HABS/HAER Records\nAfter several months work, HABS/HAER has been assigned its own record group at the National Archives,\nand many administrative files have been deposited in it. July 1, 1992, Assistant Archivist Trudy Huskamp\nPeterson established Record Group 515, through the efforts of HABS/HAER Collections Management\nSpecialist Georgette Wilson. She and the division were greatly assisted by archivist Jerry Wallace of the\nNational Archives. Transfer of administrative files to the National Archives was organized by HABS historian\nMonica M. Paprocki. These materials included HABS and HAER publications, photographs of individuals\nassociated with the programs, posters, administrative records, copies of the database, awards and certificates,\nand other information pertinent to the history of the programs. In addition, twenty boxes of early HABS\nrecords stored in a government warehouse since the 1960s were released to the National Archives for inclusion\nin it. Although several people have undertaken histories of the HABS and/or HAER programs (e.g., Wilton\nCorkern's dissertation, \"Architects, Preservationists, and the New Deal: The Historic American Buildings\nSurvey, 1933-1942\" [George Washington University, 1984]; John Burns' \"Architects and the Historic\nAmerican Buildings Survey, 1933-1990\" [AIA, 1990], and Elise Vider's thesis, \"The Historic American\nBuildings Survey in Philadelphia, 1950-1966: Shaping Postwar Preservation\" [University of Pennsylvania,\n1991), these records have not largely been previously available to scholars interested in the history of the\nHABS and HAER programs. HABS/HAER currently has plans to expand Record Group 515 through\ndonations of missing materials. HABS and HAER measured drawings, large format photographs, and histories\nwill remain in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress.\nIn conjunction with the assigning of a record group number, an exhibit of photographs, copies of original\ndocuments, and drawings reflecting the establishment of the HABS and HAER programs was developed by\nGeorgette Wilson, Monica Paprocki and Caroline Bedinger. The exhibit was on display at the National\nArchives October 5-9, 1992. To commemorate this milestone, a ceremony and reception was held at the\nNational Archives on October 7, in which HABS founder Charles E. Peterson presented to Archivist of the\nUnited States Don W. Wilson his original hand-written memorandum establishing the program. In his\ncomments, Peterson stated that the memorandum was drafted on a Sunday afternoon on a government legal\npad. \"Maybe I shouldn't have taken that pad home, but I did,\" said Peterson. The draft memo had been\n24\nACTIVITIES\nstored in a safe in Philadelphia over the last several decades. Its transfer to the National Archives was\nfacilitated by Roger Moss, executive director, The Atheneum of Philadelphia. Also speaking were Jerry L.\nRogers, associate director for cultural resources, NPS; Kapsch, and Trudy Peterson.\nIt is extremely unusual for the National Archives to establish individual record groups for government\norganizational units less than bureau size--for the Department of the Interior, this would mean a single record\ngroup for the National Park Service, but not for components of the National Park Service. Establishment of\nRecord Group 515, therefore, honors the contributions of HABS/HAER over the years and it represents a very\nimportant step toward preserving the administrative records of HABS/HAER.\nOfficials in attendance at the National Archives ceremony were, left to right, Jerry L. Wallace, National Archives;\nRobert J. Kapsch, Chief of HABS/HAER; Jerry L. Rogers, Associate Director for Cultural Resources; Charles E.\nPeterson, FAIA, founder of HABS; Don W. Wilson, Archivist of the United States; and Trudy H. Peterson, Assistant\nArchivist, National Archives. Photographer: Amy Young, 1992\n25\nACTIVITIES\nNational Academy of Public Administration (NAPA) Identifies HABS/HAER Data Base for\nPreservation\nThe National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA), under contract to the National Archives, reviewed\nmore than 9,000 existing federal electronic data bases to identify the most important ones to preserve in\nperpetuity. Of the 789 identified for preservation, the HABS/HAER database used to index 27,000 historic\nstructures documented by HABS/HAER over the last 60 years was one of those selected. Annually thereafter,\nHABS/HAER will transfer a tape containing an updated copy of that database to the National Archives to be\nincluded as part of Record Group 515, Records of the Historic American Buildings Survey/Historic American\nEngineering Record. Should a cataclysmic collapse of the HABS/HAER database ever occur, the National\nArchives copies would be available to reconstruct a new operating system.\nEastern Office of Design and Construction's Photographs Added to the HABS/HAER Collection\nDuring 1992, the collections management section transmitted drawings, photographs, and histories on more\nthan 1,000 structures to the HABS/HAER collections in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library\nof Congress. Included in this transmittal are photographs from the Eastern Office of Design and\nConstruction's (EODC) photographic collection. EODC, a division within the National Park Service that once\nincluded the HABS program, restored or otherwise studied an enormous body of significant historic structures\nduring the period of 1952-66. For this reason, the Park Historic Architecture Division, NPS, (temporary\nrepository of the EODC photographs) and HABS/HAER entered into an agreement for the purpose of\nintegrating these important photographs into the HABS/HAER collection on June 1, 1992.\nThe EODC photographic transmittal project commenced. HABS/HAER summer historian Brian Cary worked\non this project under the supervision of Collections Management Specialist Georgette R. Wilson, in\ncooperation with other Washington staff. More than 7,000 images of structures, landscapes, artifacts, and\npersonnel from 155 of the National Park Service areas made up the collection. During the 12-week project,\n1,140 photographs and negatives of 118 structures were selected for inclusion in the HABS/HAER collection.\nThe transmittal packet for each structure consisted of a data entry sheet, master index card, cover sheet,\ncaption sheet, prints and negatives. Images were processed according to HABS/HAER specifications.\nThe EODC photographs were useful in expanding and enhancing the existing HABS/HAER collections. The\nentire EODC collection eventually will be housed at the Harpers Ferry Center in Virginia.\nRandall J. Biallas, Chief Park Historic Architect, was instrumental in establishing this arrangement, so as to\nget this important material into the publicly accessible HABS/HAER collections.\n26\nACTIVITIES\nHAER Mon Valley Office Burns\nThe HAER Homestead, Pennsylvania, field office narrowly averted disaster on April 10, 1992, when the\nbuilding next door was set on fire by an arsonist. The HAER office was heavily damaged by smoke and\nwater, but through the quick action of HAER supervisory historian Joel Sabadasz and HAER supervisory\narchitect Christopher Marston, both of whom carried records to safety, nothing valuable was lost.\nWith the help of the Steel Industry Heritage Corporation, cosponsor of the HAER project and whose offices\nsuffered even more damage, HAER was operating from a new location in Homestead within two weeks.\nFiremen extinguishes flames at HAER's\nfield office in Homestead.

These heritage corridors/areas use Federal funds to leverage other public funds and private moneys.\nThe oldest such program is Lowell National Historic Park, originated by former Senator Paul Tsongas.\nTsongas envisioned a public/private, Federal/state/local cooperative effort that would revitalize that historic\ntextile community. The concept has been embraced by the National Park Service. HABS/HAER Chief Robert\nKapsch served on a National Park Service task force that developed this idea as a major program of the NPS.\nThis proposal was presented to the National Park Service's 75th anniversary conference in Vail, Colorado,\nand was approved for further implementation.\nHABS/HAER's role in heritage corridors/heritage areas is to identify and document significant historic\nresources of those areas. Usually, HABS/HAER teams are the first Federal presence in a given heritage\ncorridor or area. Because most of these heritage corridors and areas emphasize industrial and engineering\nresources, HAER tends to be used extensively since it contains the bulk of the National Park Service's\nexpertise on historic industrial and engineering resources. The following is a current list of active heritage\ncorridors and areas and the Federal funding they were appropriated in 1992:\n* America's Industrial Heritage Area, Pennsylvania (AIHP) - $11,670,000\nIncluding the nine counties of southwestern Pennsylvania, HABS/HAER has been active in support\nof AIHP since 1987.\n* Augusta Canal National Historic Landmark, Georgia - $74,000\nFunding to support planning. HAER documented the Augusta Power Canal, textile mills and\nassociated industries in 1977.\n* Birmingham District National Heritage Area, Alabama - $248,000\nFunding to support the second year of HABS/HAER documentation in Birmingham. HAER\ndocumented Sloss Furnace, now a NHL, in 1976 and was instrumental in its designation as a national\nhistoric landmark and its subsequent development as a major industrial museum.\n* Blackstone River Valley Heritage Corridor Commission - $347,000\nThe Blackstone flows through eastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island. This commission funded\nHAER to record in 1991 Slater Mill in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, the oldest textile mill in the United\nStates.\n* Calumet National Historic Landmark District, Michigan - $0\nHAER documented structures associated with copper mining of the Upper Peninsula in the late 1970s.\n* Dayton Aviation Heritage Commission, Ohio - $50,000\nA new heritage commission, initial funding is for planning. HAER has not worked directly on these\nresources but is currently involved in a multi-year documentation program of the most historic areas\nof Wright-Patterson AFB, Dayton.\n28\nACTIVITIES\n*\nDelaware and Lehigh Navigational Canal Commission - $347,000\nLocated in the eastern part of Pennsylvania, HAER has documented the Ashley Breaker (1991) and\nthe Beth Forge Plant of Bethlehem Steel (1990) for this commission.\n*\nIllinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor Commission - $248,000\nThe second-oldest heritage corridor, behind Lowell, HABS/HAER did extensive work for this\ncommission along the I & M Canal running southwest of Chicago for 110 miles, in 1985-87.\n* Lackawanna Heritage Valley, Pennsylvania - $422,000\nA new heritage area.\n*\nLowell Historic Preservation Commission, Massachusetts - $726,000\nThe granddaddy of heritage areas/corridors, HABS/HAER has undertaken extensive documentation\nof the historic resources in Lowell since the early 1970s.\n* Mississippi River Corridor Heritage Commission - $149,000\nUndoubtedly the longest heritage corridor.\n* New Jersey Coastal Heritage Trail - $205,000\nThe New Jersey Coastal Heritage Trail is more a series of self-guided tours and interpretative devices\nalong the Jersey Coast. HABS/HAER has conducted extensive research here, in the areas of\nvernacular architecture, agriculture, ship-building and other subjects.\n* Steamtown National Historic Site, Pennsylvania - $12,893,000\nProbably the most controversial heritage area, Steamtown is headquartered in Scranton, Pennsylvania.\nThe Scranton yards of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad were recorded by HAER in\n1989.\n* Steel Industry Heritage Task Force, Pennsylvania - $0\nCentered on the Homestead works near Pittsburgh, the task force was not successful in receiving its\n$2 million request for 1992. HAER has maintained a field office in support of the Steel Industry\nHeritage Task Force since 1989.\n* Wheeling National Heritage Area, West Virginia - $2,304,000\nA HABS/HAER team documented both architectural and engineering sites in Wheeling in 1990.\nOther additions could probably be made to this list. The heritage corridor/area concept is one that has\ndeveloped a great deal of excitement and enthusiasm by its supporters. Heritage corridors/areas are said to\ndevelop tourism, encourage development, preserve important historic resources, and develop Americans'\ninterest in their industrial and engineering heritage. From the National Park Service point of view, the\nconcept integrates numerous outreach programs, builds a broader constituency for the preservation mission\nof the Service, and can be an effective tool for limiting new park acquisitions when financial support doesn't\nseem to be sustainable. We at HABS/HAER are proud to be part of the effort.\n29\nACTIVITIES\nInternational Activities\nHABS historian Elizabeth Barthold participated in the US/ICOMOS summer internship program and spent\nthree months working for the Wessex Region of England's Natinal Trust at the Kingston Lacy Estate in\nDorset. She researched aspects of the estate's landscape. Barthold will also be giving a paper on the\nL'Enfant-McMillan Plan of Washington, D.C., a multi-year HABS project, at the International Symposium\non the Conservation of Urban Squares and Parks in spring 1993, to be held in Montreal, Canada.\nHABS/HAER Deputy Chief John A. Burns delivered a speech, \"The Historic American Buildings\nSurvey/Historic American Engineering Record,\" at the Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies, University\nof York, York, England, on September 25, 1992. He similarly spoke before the Royal Commission on\nHistoric Monuments, England, and English Heritage in London, September 28.\nSpain hosted the 8th International Congress for the Conservation of the Industrial Heritage (TICCIH),\nSeptember 13-18, 1992. Approximately 200 delegates from around the world met in Madrid for three days\nof formal sessions pertaining to industrial heritage. HAER Chief Eric DeLony, representing the National Park\nService, co-chaired the session on fieldwork with Steve Hughes of the Royal Commission on the Historical\nMonuments of Wales. Prior to the formal working sessions in Madrid, delegates met in Barcelona and toured\nCatelonian textile mills and other industrial works. The United States shares a preeminent role as one of the\nworld's leaders in industrial heritage, along with other industrialized nations. Though the lead in these matters\nrests with industrialized nations, less-industrialized countries have not suffered the loss of heritage as have the\nmore developed countries. These countries view their industrial heritage as unique and worthy of\npreservation. The next international conference, in 1994, will be hosted by Canada.\nPaul D. Dolinsky, HABS chief, was one of nine Americans selected to participate in an international\nconference at Ditchley Park in Oxfordshire, England. The topic of the conference was \"Preserving the\nArchitectural Heritage\" and focused on preservation priorities, patterns of support and tourism.\nDitchley House, Oxfordshire, England, c. 1722.

Dolinsky, 1992\n30\nACTIVITIES\nWhite House Exhibit and the First Lady\nIn October 1991, the White House celebrated the 200th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone. To\nconvey its architectural history, the American Architectural Foundation (AAF) and the White House Historical\nAssociation organized the exhibition \"White House: Images in Architecture 1792-1992.\" The assembly of\ndrawings, photographs, documents, and artifacts was opened by First Lady Barbara Bush, and remained on\ndisplay at the Octagon and the American Institute of Architects (AIA) headquarters through April 1992.\nCurator of the exhibit was Betty Monkman, associate curator of the White House.\nDisplayed in the AIA gallery were HABS measured drawings that documented the White House as part of the\ncontinuing restoration effort.\nLeft, HABS architect and project supervisor Frederick\nLindstrom discusses exhibit with First Lady Barbara Bush.\nPhotographer: Jack E.

Boucher, 1992\n31\nACTIVITIES\nCongressman Neil Abercrombie Visits HABS/HAER\nOn March 30, 1992, Congressman Neil Abercrombie (D-Hawaii), a member of the Interior Authorization\nCommittee, visited HABS/HAER offices at 1100 L Street -- the first congressman to do so in recent memory.\nAbercrombie's interest in HABS/HAER is based on his observation of the HABS summer 1991 Kalaupapa\nproject, also acclaimed by Senator Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii) and Congresswoman Patsy Mink (D-Hawaii).\nIndependence Hall Drawings\nAt a May 11 public ceremony outside of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, a multi-year effort to produce\nthe first comprehensive set of measured drawings of Independence Hall was culminated. Independence\nNational Historical Park Superintendent Martha B. Aikens formally presented forty-five sheets of HABS\ndrawings, photographs, and field records of Independence Hall to HABS/HAER Chief Robert J. Kapsch, for\ndeposit in the HABS collection in the Library of Congress. Also participating in the ceremony were\nCongressman Peter H. Kostmayer, chairman of the House Interior Subcommittee on Energy and the\nEnvironment; Congressman Thomas M. Foglietta, in whose district Independence Hall is located; and\nCongressman Lucien E. Blackwell. In assessing the stewardship responsibility of the National Park Service\nto care for Independence Hall, which is owned by the city of Philadelphia, park historical architect Penelope\nHartshorne Batcheler discovered that, while there were dozens of drawings and hundreds of photographs of\nthe building, there was no single consistent, comprehensive and accurate set of measured drawings.\nParadoxically, the most pristine parts of the structure--the exterior brickwork, the central hall, and the tower\nstairhall--had never been recorded in measured drawings because they had never required extensive restoration\nwork. The most intact and historic parts of the\nbuilding were most at risk because they were\ninadequately documented. Thus began an\nintensive, long-term effort to produce\nIII\ncomprehensive photogrammetric documentation of\nIndependence Hall for public information and\ninterpretation, for day-to-day preservation\nmaintenance and ongoing restoration, and as a\nform of protection against catastrophic loss.\nLeft to right, Peter H. Kostmayer (R.Pa) and Martha B.

Davies, 1992.\n32\nACTIVITIES\nStereophotogrammetry was the technique chosen to produce the measured drawings of Independence Hall.\nThe project was sponsored by the park under the direction of Batcheler and William D. Brookover, with\ntechnical support from HABS/HAER Deputy Chief John A. Burns. The recording was begun in June 1985\nby Dennett, Muessig, Ryan and Associates, Ltd. The forty-five measured drawings were completed in April\n1990. Three sets of 6.5cm X 9cm glass plate stereopairs were made, with 290 pairs in each set (105 exterior\nand 185 interior). The original drawings and one set of the plates were transferred to HABS/HAER.\nPhotomylar duplicates of the drawings and the second set of plates were retained by the park, and another set\nof photomylars was sent to the Technical Information Center, Denver Service Center, NPS. A third set of\nplates was retained by the contractor.\nNORTH ELEVATION\nSCALE\nINDEPENDENCE HALL\nIndependence Hall. Delineator: Marie A. Neubauer, 1986-1987.\nPlotted by: Bruce A. Harms, 1986\n33\nACTIVITIES\nUniversity of Maryland\nIn 1992, HABS/HAER entered into a cooperative agreement with the University of Maryland. The\ncooperative agreement permits the University of Maryland Historic Preservation program to offer two long\ncourses and two short courses related to HABS/HAER. The long courses to be offered include \"HABS/HAER\nMeasured Drawings,\" to be taught by Judith Capen, and \"Historians Field Methods,\" to be taught by Peter\nKurtze. HABS/HAER staff will assist in teaching these courses. The short courses will include \"Architectural\nPhotography\" by HABS photographer Jack E. Boucher and HAER photographer Jet Lowe, and \"Heritage\nAreas,\" by HAER Chief Eric N. DeLony and the HAER staff. In addition, the cooperative agreement\npermitted the funding of two University of Maryland interns, Virginia Carter and Dwayne Scheid who, under\nthe direction of HABS/HAER collections management specialist Georgette Wilson, are organizing the\narchitectural and engineering library. Finally, the cooperative agreement facilitated the establishment of the\nUniversity of Maryland-HABS/HAER lecture series. Lectures in 1993 include: February 2 - \"The Living\nin the Dead: Making Monuments out of Human Action,\" Bernard L. Herman, associate director of the Center\nfor Historic Architecture and Engineering, University of Delaware; February 16 \"World Heritage: A Legacy\nfor All,\" Terry B. Morton, president, U.S. Committee of the International Council on Monuments and Sites;\nMarch 2-\"Historic Preservation in Maryland and/or the Politics of Preservation,\" J. Rodney Little, director,\nMaryland Division of Historical and Cultural Programs; March 30 - \"National Park Service: Future\nDirections in Historic Preservation,\" Jerry L. Rogers, associate director for Cultural Resources, National Park\nService; April 20 - \"The Pioneer Generation of Architectural Historians and Their Role in Preservation,\"\nCharles B. Hosmer, Jr., professor of history, Principia College.\nThe cooperative agreement was facilitated by the leadership of professors James Flack, David Fogle, Mary\nSies, and Joan Zen Zen who served as course coordinator, all of University of Maryland.\nHAER Cosponsors Historic Bridge Conference\nIn August 1992, HAER cosponsored the International Historic Bridge Conference in Columbus, Ohio, hosted\nby the School of Engineering at Ohio State University, and by the Ohio Historic Preservation Office-Ohio\nHistorical Society. This was the fourth in a series of regional conferences convened by the two institutions\nto bring together engineers and historic preservation specialists to discuss historic bridges. So successful was\nthe first meeting, held eight years ago and attracting more than 100 attenders, the two organizations decided\nto hold the meetings on a bi-annual basis. Continuous interest resulted in the sponsorship of an international\nconference. Engineers and bridge scholars from around the world were invited to share their experiences in\nresearching and saving historic bridges. A significant number of engineers attended the three-day meetings,\ndue in part to the event's sponsorship by one of the country's most prestigious engineering schools.\nIn conjunction with this conference, the Transportation Research Board, National Academy of Sciences,\nsponsored a historic-bridge rehabilitation workshop the previous day. HAER Chief Eric DeLony and Abba\nLichtenstein co-chaired the sessions attended by more than fifty participants. A. G. Lichtenstein & Associates\nis one of the country's foremost consultants on bridge rehabilitation.\n34\nAIA/CHR Resolution: HABS 60th Anniversary\nThe American Institute of Architects' Committee on Historic Resources (AIA/CHR) passed a resolution\nbeginning the commemoration of the 60th anniversary of the Historic American Buildings Survey at their\nwinter meeting in San Antonio, Texas, on March 1, 1992. The text of the resolution is below.\nA number of activities are planned, in cooperation with the AIA and other professional interest groups,\nespecially for November 17th, the actual day the HABS program was approved in 1933.\nWHEREAS, the Historic American Buildings Survey of the National\nPark Service was the first national historic preservation\nprogram and has through the years, been of immeasurable\nbenefit to the scholarship and appreciation of historic\nstructures;\nWHEREAS, some three thousand student architects and others\nengaged in the Survey have become acquainted with the\ninterest and importance of our historical heritage; and\nWHEREAS, the Survey has continued in operation, increasing in scale\nand scope; and\nWHEREAS, this unique and pioneering program is fast approaching\nthe advent of its 60th year in 1993;\nNOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that the American Institute of\nArchitects form an ad-hoc committee to help the National Park\nService plan an appropriate formal commemoration of this\nmilestone in Washington, at the AIA convention in Chicago,\nand across the United States, in 1993.\n35\nACTIVITIES\nHABS/HAER Moves to 800 North Capitol Street\nOn the evening of August 3, the General Services Administration (GSA) began moving the offices of\nHABS/HAER from 1100 L Street, NW, to its new space at 800 North Capitol St., NW. The move itself was\nreminiscent of an ancient curse about one's office being moved by the lowest bidder. Initially planned for\none evening, the move extended through most of the week. The HABS/HAER copier was stolen in the\nprocess and no copiers were available in the new building. Furniture was damaged, some beyond use. Yet\nHABS/HAER survived through the tireless efforts of its staff, many working long into the night.\nThe new offices are a great improvement. In some sense they had to be. HABS/HAER was greatly\novercrowded in its former location, although we weren't so sensitive to that fact until we overheard members\nof the GSA's Inspector General's office touring 1100 L Street say to each other, \"Can you imagine people\nwork like this?\"\nSpace planning of the new HABS/HAER space was undertaken by John Burns and Paul Dolinsky. Utilizing\nan open-space planning concept, Burns and Dolinsky were able to provide more space to HABS/HAER staff\nwithout exceeding the total GSA-authorized space by minimizing circulation space and grouping historians,\narchitects, and collections activities together.\nThe move to 800 North Capitol allowed us to consolidate HABS/HAER offices in one building. The\nCAD/photogrammetry laboratory had been in the Pension Building/National Building Museum, thanks to\nRobert Duemling, president and director of the museum. One great advantage in relocating was, for the first\ntime, the provision of darkroom space to HABS/HAER photographers, where they will do their own\nprocessing and printing.\nWe expect to be at 800 North Capitol through the\nyear 2003. Other HABS/HAER homes in the\nWashington, D.C. area have included 1721 North\nLynn St., Arlington, Virginia; 801 19th St., NW;\n1100 L Street, NW (twice), and the Pension\nBuilding at 440 G St., NW. Our favorite location\nwas, of course, the Pension Building.\nOur mailing address remains P.O.

Boucher, 1993\n36\nACTIVITIES\nHABS/HAER Annual Summer Celebration\nSeneca Creek State Park\nJuly 31-August 2, 1992\nThis year, two days of special events preceded the annual HABS/HAER picnic held Sunday, August 2. The\nactivities were chosen to promote social interaction between the Washington-based staff and summer hires.\nThe picnic committee consisted of HABS architects Mellonee Rheams and Robert R. Arzola, and HABS\nhistorian Kimberly R. Sebold.\nOn July 31, the HABS/HAER staff, summer team members, and friends of HABS/HAER were invited to a\nreception at the National Building Museum, location of the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials team's CAD\nlaboratory. The reception offered an opportunity for summer employees to meet the Washington staff, learn\nhow the Washington office operates, as well as to observe a CAD demonstration. Each visiting team, as well\nas the long-term Washington-based documentation projects, presented T-shirts, pencilings of drawings,\nfieldnotes, photographs and drafts of historical reports. A spokesman from each team gave short presentations\non each project.

Marlene Bergstrom, field program administrator, celebrates 16 years of Federal service. She left a life\nof serenity as a homemaker to join the National Park Service in 1976 when she was hired by HABS/HAER\nto type historical-data manuscripts. Later, she worked on transmittals, compiling and organizing materials\nfor transfer to the Library of Congress. Bergstrom became a permanent member of the staff and three years\nlater was named photographic services assistant, a position created to provide administrative support to the\nstaff photographers and archival-records management functions. In 1987, she assumed the responsibility of\nsummer program administrator, a full-time position coordinating the administrative activities associated with\nan ever-expanding summer program. In 1950 Bergstrom received an associate of arts degree from Towson\nState Teachers College (now Towson State University) in Maryland, where she was in the first graduating\nclass of the newly established junior college.\nJack E. Boucher, HABS architectural photographer, marked thirty years of Federal Service on July 26, all\nwith HABS. Boucher's Federal career began in 1958 at the HABS office in Philadelphia under the supervision\nof founder Charles E. Peterson. His initial assignment was to record the unearthing of the original flagpole\nbase at Fort McHenry, working with architect Lee Nelson. In late 1966, having long been active in historic\npreservation, he continued to work for HABS under contract. With the inception of the HAER program in\n1969, Boucher returned to \"the fold\" to work for both programs. His tenure with HABS has taken Boucher\nto forty-nine of the fifty States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands photographing structures-- \"from privies\nto palaces,\" he says. He has amassed approximately half of the photographs in the HABS collection in the\nLibrary of Congress--more than 50,000 of an estimated 7,500 structures. Throughout the years, Boucher has\nreceived many awards and recognitions, including the Interior Department's Meritorious Service Medal, the\n44\nPEOPLE\nMedal of the American Institute of Architects, and others.

University and other\nestablished presses use peer review, reach large audiences, have greater professional credibility and are high\nin quality compared to some government publications. The disadvantage of using university and other\nestablished presses is that it is difficult to have a title accepted for publication. These publishing projects are\nundertaken through cooperative agreements with, usually, royalties paid to HABS/HAER. Current projects\ninclude the following:\nBuildings of Alaska, by Alison K. Hoagland, senior historian, HABS. To be published by Oxford University\nPress, spring 1993. In an ambitious project conceived by William Pierson and Adolf Placek, the\nSociety of Architectural Historians is sponsoring Buildings of the United States, a series of\nguidebooks to all the states. HABS veteran and University of Missouri professor Osmund Overby\nis editor-in-chief for the series. Alaska is one of the first four volumes, all of which will be published\nthis spring. With several seasons of HABS work in Alaska to her credit, Hoagland took a leave of\nabsence in FY90 to write this volume, contracting with HAER photographer Jet Lowe to provide\nmany of the photographs. Large-format photographs taken for this book will go into the HABS\ncollection. The 320-page book (containing 200 half-tones, 24 line drawings, 35 maps) will sell for\n$29.95 and can be obtained from Oxford University Press, 200 Madison Avenue, New York, NY\n10016.\nLandmark American Bridges, by Eric DeLony, HAER chief. To be published by the American Society of Civil\nEngineers and the Bulfinch Press of Little, Brown Publishing Company of Boston, in May 1993, this book\nrepresents the best of HAER bridge documentation collected over the last twenty years. The brainchild\nof ASCE Executive Director Edward Pfrang and HABS/HAER Chief Robert Kapsch (the two worked\ntogether at the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Center for Building Technology) the book,\nas described by ASCE, \"could well be the definitive pictorial treatise on U.S. bridge-building.\" The book\nincludes ninety-four bridges illustrated in more than 200 photographs and drawings. Curtis Deane was the\nASCE program manager and Zoe Foundotos was the ASCE acquisitions editor. The 160-page book will\nsell for $40.00, from Marketing Services A237, American Society of Civil Engineers, 345 East 47th Street,\nNew York, NY 10017-2398.

Boucher. To be published by Johns\nHopkins University Press in spring 1993. This publication is the result of a model documentation project\ndeveloped by Robert J. Kapsch, HABS/HAER chief, and Gail Rothrock, Prince George's County historic\npreservation coordinator, to demonstrate how HABS/HAER can work with local governments to\ncomprehensively record the historic structures. HABS photographer Jack E. Boucher and HABS historian\nCatherine C. Lavoie documented forty-two historic structures throughout Prince George's County through\nthe use of large format photography; approximately 900 photographs were taken and will be transmitted\nto the Library of Congress. They were assisted by Maryland National Capital Park and Planning\nCommission historian Susan Pearl. The book, representing the best of this documentation, was developed\nby Diane Maddex, president, Archetype Press. George Thompson, acquisitions editor, and James\nJohnston, vice president, Johns Hopkins University Press, greatly facilitated the project. The book will\nalso include essays by Rothrock, Pearl, Lavoie, Kapsch, and Boucher. It will sell for $29.95 and can be\nobtained by writing to The Johns Hopkins University Press, Sales Department, 701 West 40th St.,\nBaltimore, MD 21211-2190, or by calling 410-516-6936.\nA Quest for Grandeur, by Sally Kress Tompkins, former deputy chief of HABS/HAER; photographs by Jack E.\nBoucher. To be published spring 1993 by Smithsonian Institution Press. The genesis for this book began\nfollowing Tompkins' death in 1989, and the realization that her thesis, on Charles Moore and the\ndevelopment of the Federal Triangle in Washington, D.C., was an important contribution to our knowledge\nof the development of the Federal city. The Smithsonian Institution Press was ably represented by\nacquisitions editor Amy Pastan and production editor Rebecca Browning. HABS/HAER historian Caroline\nBedinger served as the project leader. Richly illustrated with seventy-six illustrations, this 181-page book\nwill make an important contribution to our knowledge of Washington, D.C.

Gregory Franzwa, publisher of Patrice\nPress, became interested in publishing a catalog to this unique collection. Financially assisted by donations\narranged by Charles E. Peterson, Franzwa hired Pulitzer-prize winning author Frank L. Peters, Jr., to\nwork ,with HABS senior architectural historian Kim Hoagland to produce the richly illustrated catalog.\nMonticello: Drawings of the Historic American Buildings Survey, text by restoration director William Beiswanger,\nThomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, and Paul Dolinsky, HABS chief; drawings by Isabel Yang, HABS\narchitect, and others.

Gray Fitzsimons, HAER Engineer/Historian\nRichard J. O'Connor, HAER Historian\nProject Historian:\nFrederic L. Quivik, Historian, University of Pennsylvania\nIn 1991, HAER embarked on a study of the Connellsville coke region, one of world's prominent metallurgical\ncoking districts in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Frederic Quivik undertook the first part\nof this study, conducting research of primary and secondary sources, surveying various abandoned beehive\ncoke works, and interviewing a number of local residents who were involved with the industry. The study\nfocused on the business strategies and technologies employed by one of the nation's largest coke producers,\nthe H. C. Frick Coke Company, as well as one of Frick's competitors, the W. J. Rainey Company. Quivik\nprepared a draft report on his research and outlined a series of issues and questions for a second phase of the\nresearch and writing. In the summer of 1992, Quivik returned to the project, refining and expanding his\nearlier work. This included a section on the Frick Company's works at Shoaf, one of the early mechanized\nbeehive coke operations in the Connellsville district.\nQuivik's study demonstrates that Frick and others in the Connellsville district, though choosing to continue\nwith beehive rather than the technologically advanced by-product coke production, nevertheless adopted some\nnew techniques for manufacturing coke and experimented with different types of ovens, plant layouts, and\n62\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nkinds of equipment for charging, quenching and drawing coke from the ovens. Further, Connellsville coke\nmakers like Frick attempted to standardize their production processes, particularly after 1900. Quivik shows\nthat the Connellsville coke industry was not as technologically stagnant as other studies have suggested and\nthat such coke producers as the Frick Company adopted new techniques and invested large sums of capital\nin more modern beehive coke processes. The next phase of the study, to begin in 1993, will examine labor\nin the Connellsville region's coal and coke industry, and will look at the response of workers to this new\ntechnology.\nJeannette Glass and Flat Glass Contextual Study Jeannette, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C.\nProject Leaders:\nG. Gray Fitzsimons, HAER Engineer/Historian\nRichard J. O'Connor, HAER Historian\nTeam Member:\nAmy C. McGroarty, The Catholic University of America\nBegun in the summer of 1991, a series of drawings depicting the process for producing flat glass, as carried\nout at the nationally important Chambers-McKee Window Glass Company in 1890s and early 1900s, was\ncompleted in 1992. Completed by Amy McGroarty, these drawings focus on the three major processes --\nhand production, the Lubbers cylinder, and the Fourcault machine used at Jeannette, and provide the reader\nwith an understanding of the size and scale of each operation, as well as the layout of equipment and\ninteraction of worker with machine, in Jeannette's largest glass plant.\nRelated to the Jeannette glass study, Richard O' 'Connor commenced a survey of other flat glass manufacturers\nthroughout western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, and Indiana. The aim of the study is to place\nJeannette's industry in a larger context and identify physical remains from other plants operating during the\n1880s through the 1920s.\nHAER Inventory Publications for\nWashington, D.C.\nWestmoreland, Somerset and Indiana Counties\nProject Leaders:\nG.

Hoagland, HABS Senior Historian\nThe town of Norvelt, originally named Westmoreland Homesteads, was built in 1934-37 by the U.S. Division\nof Subsistence Homesteads as part of New Deal relief efforts in the southwestern Pennsylvania coal fields.\nGrounded in the philosophies of self-help and back-to-the-land, much of the impetus for the subsistence\nhomesteads movement came from the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), founded by the Society\nof Friends in 1917. The AFSC raised private funds and sponsored construction of a homesteads community\nnamed Penn-Craft in western Fayette County (1936-42). The curvilinear town plans, generous lot sizes, and\nvariety of house plans make both these towns conspicuous in a regional landscape dominated by more\nregimented company town plans.\nHABS historian Margaret M. Mulrooney began work on this project in 1989. She conducted research and\nfieldwork and drafted histories of both towns. After Mulrooney left HABS to begin graduate work at the\nCollege of William and Mary, HABS senior historian Alison K. Hoagland continued work on the project in\n1991. She completed an overview essay on the subsistence homesteads movement and assembled the work\nfor publication. HABS architect Isabel Yang produced simple floor plans and elevations of prototypical\ndesigns for each community, and David Ames, Center for Historic Architecture and Engineering, University\nof Delaware, produced large format photographs.\nRefractories Company Towns\nProject Leader:\nAlison K. Hoagland, HABS Senior Historian\nProject Historian:\nKim E. Wallace, HABS Historian\nAs part of its documentation of the coal, steel, and transportation industries in the AIHP region of\nPennsylvania, HABS/HAER has produced histories of towns dominated by coal mines, steel mills, and the\nPennsylvania Railroad. This study moves beyond these primary and more visible industries to examine the\nrefractory brick industry, which produced materials to build steel furnaces, coke ovens, and locomotive boilers\nand fireboxes. It focuses on eight towns with company housing that survives from the heyday of the\nrefractory brickyards during the first decades of the twentieth century. The towns are scattered across the\nregion and represent a spectrum of refractories companies, company housing policies, and company town\ndevelopment. They include Bolivar and Salina in Westmoreland County, Robinson in Indiana County,\nBlandburg in Cambria County, Sproul and Claysburg in Blair County, Mt. Union in Huntingdon County, and\nKistler in Mifflin County. Although this study is sponsored by HABS and is focused on company housing,\n64\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nit will include a history of the refractories industry and brick-making technology, to place the company\nhousing in the context of the industry and to provide a more complete view of these company towns.\nPreliminary research for this project was conducted by HABS historians Margaret M. Mulrooney in 1989 and\nby Nancy Spiegel in 1990. Project historian Kim E. Wallace completed the research and design of the project\nand undertook the writing and preparation of a publication in 1991-92, under the direction of HABS senior\nhistorian Alison K. Hoagland. HABS architect Isabel Yang drew maps of the towns, plus sketches and floor\nplans of selected company houses. Jet Lowe and David Ames provided large-format photographic\ndocumentation of the towns. The large format photographs, drawings, and historic photographs will be\npublished with Wallace's text in 1993 as Brickyard Towns: A History of Refractories Industry Communities\nin South-Central Pennsylvania.\nAIHP/HABS Transmittal Project\nProject Leader:\nAlison K.

Six of the large-scale projects were published in cooperation with AIHP and a\nnumber of these publications are now in their second printing. With the publication process completed, the\ndocumentation materials were prepared for transmittal to the Library of Congress. HABS/HAER historians\narranged to transmit copies of the documentation and research materials to an archive at Indiana University\nof Pennsylvania, established to house the records of AIHP.

DeLony, Chief, HAER\nProject Manager:\nRobbyn L. Jackson, HAER Architect\nField Leader:\nCraig N. Strong, HAER Architect\nDuring the summer of 1992, HAER undertook the first part of a multi-year effort to document the industrial\nheritage of the Birmingham District, an area rich in the history of iron and manufacturing. The documentation\nproduced by HAER will define the heritage area visually and verbally, and will serve as the foundation for\npreservation and interpretive plans. The nineteen-member team, made up of architects, architecture\ntechnicians, historians, and a photographer, conducted four separate recording projects, in support of local\nefforts to establish an Industrial Heritage District in a five-county area. Sponsored by the Birmingham\nHistorical Society and funded by congressional appropriation, the team documented the railroad infrastructure\nof the district, the Hardie-Tynes foundry and machine shop, the Republic Steel Corporation's Thomas by-\nproduct coke works, and a series of smaller, less traditional sites. For the most part, the sites were selected\nbecause they tie into historical themes that distinguish the district as an important iron and steel region.\n66\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nHardie-Tynes Machinery Manufacturing Company\nBirmingham, Alabama\nTeam Members:\nEvelyn L.

English, Historian, Ironbridge Institute, United Kingdom, [ICOMOS]\nZvonimir Franic, Architect, Institute for the Preservation of the Historical\nMonuments and Nature of Dubrovnik, Croatia, [ICOMOS]\nLaura H. Letton, Architecture Technician, Miami University\nHardie-Tynes is a study in adaptability, having begun as a builder of steam engines, air compressors and\nmining equipment, and now doing specialized contract work for the Defense Department, major dam projects,\nand a variety of other customers. The company first supplied local mines and industries, but later produced\ncomponents for the Panama Canal, the Hoover Dam and other major national and international projects. The\nHardie-Tynes HAER team produced drawings which show how the plant changed over time in response to\nchanging markets and major fires. Also, the team produced drawings that depict how Hardie-Tynes made a\nmajor piece of mining equipment. The drawings illustrate the manufacture of a mine hoist drum, highlighting\nkey stages in the process; and such tasks as melting cast iron in a cupola and pouring it into custom-made\nmolds in the foundry. They also show selected machine tools that performed the finishing work in the\nmachine shop.\nKoppers By-Product Coking Operation\nThomas, Alabama\nTeam Members:\nCraig N.

Heintz, Architect, Harvard University\nThe Thomas Coke Plant is a battery of sixty-four Koppers-Becker Coke Ovens which produced a range of coal\nby-products and coke used as fuel for the Republic Steel Corporation's Thomas blast furnaces. The HAER\nteam produced documentation that illustrated the production of coke and the distillation of by-product gas.\nThe Thomas by-product coke ovens and plant are significant not only because they provide a well-preserved\nexample of how blast furnace fuel and its byproducts were produced, but also because they can be used to\ndemonstrate that American blast furnace companies were finely tuned iron-making systems in which mines,\nquarries, coke ovens and blast furnaces worked in close harmony. The drawing of the Birmingham Industrial\nDistrict, ca. 1950, produced by the Thomas Coke Works recording team, illustrates the proximity of the\nmines, quarries, coke ovens and blast furnaces in the district.\n67\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nRailroad Survey of the Birmingham District National Heritage Corridor Birmingham, Alabama\n(Multiyear project)\nTeam Members:\nMark M. Brown, Supervisory Historian, University of Pittsburgh\nScott C. Brown, Historian, University of Pennsylvania\nNichole N. Duren, Architect, Howard University\nThe HAER team studied the railroad infrastructure of the Birmingham District, mapping the trunk and\nindustrial rail routes. Rail transportation was key to the movement of raw materials and finished products\nbetween interrelated sites in the district. In addition to recording the routes of major trunk lines and smaller\nindustrial short lines in the district, the railroad recording project has looked at the question of vertical\nintegration and how it might have applied in such a compact geographical area. Their work shows that\nWoodward Iron Company, a Wheeling, West Virginia, transplant in the 1880s and the leading local foundry\npig iron producer, had achieved full vertical integration well before Carnegie and other major northern\nproducers. While most local blast furnace companies were not able to achieve complete company-controlled\nrail linkage between their holdings, dubbed its \"straight line production\" model, all had well defined, compact\ntransportation routes.\nRoving HAER Survey\nBirmingham, Alabama\nTeam Members:\nKyle M. D'Agostino, Supervisory Architect, Syracuse University\nDavid H. Diesing, Photographer, University of Dayton\nCatherine I. Kudlik, Architecture Technician, The Catholic University of America\nRobert C. Martin, Architecture Technician, Auburn University\nJoseph L. Shannon, Jr., Historian, University of Alabama in Birmingham\nThe HAER team traveled the woods and more isolated areas of the Birmingham District, recording important\nsmall-scale industrial sites before finishing the season doing field sketches of the workers' housing at the\nThomas Furnaces site. The roving team marks a departure from the traditional HAER documentation project.\nIn an innovative move, HAER's unique documentary skills were adapted to record a series of small sites that\nwere tied to the larger story of vertically integrated iron-making systems. Individually, none of the sites\nwould have been substantial enough to occupy a HAER team for the whole summer, but most were crucial\nto the overall significance of the district. One, for instance, was the company housing of Republic Steel's\nThomas blast furnace and coke works. The Thomas housing illustrates the living conditions of southern\nindustrial workers and their close but distinct relationship to northern counterparts. The team also documented\nthe foundation remnants and other surface-viable archeological remains of two nineteenth-century coal mines.\nThe Brookside coal mine reveals the pioneering role the district played in developing American metallurgical\ncoal washing practice. It contains perhaps the best preserved archeological remains of a Robinson-Ramsay\ninverted cone coal washing plant that was perfected in the Birmingham District and became the first widely\nused metallurgical coal washing system in the country.\nThe Billy Gould mine site includes the retaining walls of the early battery of eleven non-by-product coke\novens that date to the 1860s-70s. Both are tied to important blast furnace companies; Brookside to Sloss and\nBilly Gould to the experimental Eureka Furnace at Oxmoor that proved the viability of making coal pig iron\n68\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nfrom the Birmingham District's coal and iron ore. In addition to their historical significance, both are\npotential recreational sites. The HAER drawings, photographs and historical reports on these sites have saved\nthem from the overgrowth and isolation of their wooded locations and brought their historical significance to\nlight.\n\"The importance of HAER to the Birmingham Industrial Heritage District is multi-dimensional. At the core are the legions of\nyouthful architects and historians who descend upon unknown but treasured sites, endow them with vigorous, enthusiastic analysis\nand convince many of their worthiness for future preservation.\"\n--Marjorie White, Director, Birmingham Historical Society\nCOKE OVEN GAS FLOW - 1952\nGeneral information\nThis drawing . reconsing - drawings\nand records provided by The Viede Sand and\nthe\nof\nthe\nBontingham\nBy-Product\nPublic\nEvery\nand\nthe\nof\nthe\nof\nAlobama\nSea\nthe\nHAER\nPlant\nAmmonia\nlibrary\nPrestorical amounted\nAbsorber\nwas -\nTurbo\nExhausters\nExhausion\nTar\n7\nPrecipitators\nBeaster\nGas\nCleaner\nPrimacy\nCoolers\nFinal\nBenzol\nCooler\nGas\nFuel Gas\nBenzol\nWasher\n10\nHölder\n11\nWashers\nPlant\nAmmania\nStarage\nScale 1/16\" 1'-0\"\nTank\nCoke Oven Gas Stages\nCoke\naven\nis\non\nexcessent\nbut\nbefore\n8\nbe\nThe\nand\nrecovery\nFlushing Liquor\nDecanter Tanks\nStorage\nTank\n2\nto\nDowncomer\n,\nThe\nand\nis\nthrough\nof\ns\n5\nFlee\nThe\ngas\nthe\nges\nto\nCollecting\nbe\nMain\n.\nthe\n=\nBeversing\nRoom\nfrom\nGas Guns\n10\nthe\nBleeder\nCoke\nStack\nOvens\nCoke Plant\n\"\nEncare\nCoke Oven Gas Flow - 1952.

Behrens, Architecture Technician, The Catholic University of America\nMellonee Rheams, Architect, HABS Office\nOn September 23, 1989, the residents of Charleston, South Carolina, were faced with the aftermath of\nHurricane Hugo. The damage to buildings, as a result of Hugo, were severe. None of the historic structures\naround the Battery were totally lost, as was the case elsewhere in the city. However, if a building had been\nlost, drawings did not exist to adequately reconstruct the structure.\nHABS/HAER, in cooperation with the Historic Charleston Foundation, undertook a documentation project\nof the Battery to produce a photogrammetric and photographic record of the streetscapes along South and East\nBattery in Charleston. These homes are considered the most vulnerable of the city's historic resources. This\ndocumentation is intended to provide a baseline documentation for catastrophic replacement.\nPhotogrammetric documentation was chosen because it is the most cost effective way of rapidly collecting data\nfor a large number of structures, enabling the recording team to photographically document twenty-six houses\nin eight days. The photographic images will be archived until scaled drawings are needed, at which time the\ngraphic information can be digitized into drawings, using AutoCAD and PhotoCAD software and a digitizing\ntable. The photogrammetric camera system was the Linhof Metrika 45 with a 90mm lens. The Metrika is\na semi-metric camera that produces 4\" X 5\" negatives on 5\" roll film. It is a specialized camera that was\nmanufactured in Germany and is the first of its kind to be used in the United States.\n72\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nThe East Battery along the bay in Charleston, South Carolina.

Used in conjunction with a team of consultant architects engaged by the Denver\nService Center to undertake a detailed stone-by-stone survey of the two buildings, the scaffolding towers\nprovided the HABS team access to normally inaccessible areas for measuring and photographic purposes. In\norder to record in detail the elaborately carved bas-relief ornamentation, extensive use was made of the\nproject's photogrammetric camera. Frequently, the camera was mounted onto a specially designed 11' long\nboom attached to one of the towers, and then swung out into space for better positioning than was available\nfrom the scaffolding itself. In addition, the camera proved useful for documenting several inaccessible\nlocations in the buildings where scaffolding was not available, such as the 40' high basement ceiling in the\nLincoln Memorial.\nMeasurement of the dome of the Jefferson Memorial was made possible using a mountaineering harness\nattached to a system of ropes, enabling team members to rappel up and down the walls. The HABS drawings\nproduced so far have already seen extensive use as base drawings for the ongoing multi-year restoration\nproject at both memorials.\n76\nWISCONSIN\nCALIFORNIA\nMII\nMDCCCXLVIII\nMDCCCL\nIV\nCornice, Lincoln Memorial.

This necessitated photographically reducing the large original drawings (plans are 54\" X 72\"\nand sections are 42\" X 72\" at 1/2\" = 1'-0\" scale) down to 1/4\" = 1'0\" scale to fit onto the standard 34\" X\n44\" HABS mylar. In addition, dimensions, room labels, and titles were added. Besides the plans and\nsections, select molding details were constructed and inked at half-size (6\" = 1'0\" scale).\nIn 1992, the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation (TJMF) expanded its memorandum of agreement with\nHABS to document the four exterior elevations of the main residence. These were begun in fall 1992 and are\nscheduled to be completed by the middle of 1993. To commemorate 1993 as the 250th anniversary of Thomas\nJefferson's birth, the TJMF is planning an exhibit and a book featuring the drawings.\n78\nMONTICELLO EAST ELEVATION\nFEET\nDAVID\nSCHLEMBER\nANDREW & STONE\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nDelineators: Isabel C.

Each inventory contains a systematic description\nof extant structures and equipment at each facility, select large format photographs of structures and\nequipment, and written histories of each facility. In addition, a set of measured drawings depicting Press Shop\nNo. 1 at the Homestead Works and the Blast Furnace Plant at the Duquesne Works have been included in the\nrespective inventories.\nWith the support of the Steel Industry Heritage Corporation, new projects were undertaken in Brownsville in\nFayette County. Led by Christopher Marston and Joel Sabadasz, the HAER teams documented the Dunlap\nCreek Bridge, built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers between 1936-39, and the first cast-iron arch bridge\nin the United States; the plant of the former Hillman Barge and Construction Company, where river coal and\ntank barges are still manufactured; and the shops and other support structures of the Monongahela Railway,\nan important local coal line. HAER's work was presented to the public in two meetings, in July and in\nNovember.\nIn 1993, HAER will finish the steel works inventories and turn its attention to the coal and coke industry of\nthe region, complementing work that has been done in America's Industrial Heritage Project (AIHP).\n80\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nPRISTED\nBMA\n20\n$12 - W Vd\n21.21\nPENNSYLVANIA\nFAYETTE COUNTY\n- -\n-\nWATER STREET AND SEVENTEENTH STREET\nRECORDING PROJECT\n133.46\nMONONGAHELA RAILWAY COMPANY SHOPS\nMONONGAHELA VALLEY\nMark Pierson 1992\n10\n3\n10FT 3 3M M\n2\n-\n0\n5\nScale 3/16 3/16°-1'-0\"\n3\n10\nas\n10000 88888\n.........\nBAR\n75 FOOT TWIN SPAN TURNTABLE ISOMETRIC\nMonongahela Railway Company, Brownsville, Fayetteville County, Pennsylvania.

Homeyer, Architect, Washington, D.C.\nThe documentation of Pierce Mill in Rock Creek Park, Washington, D.C., began during summer 1990.\nPierce Mill, erected in 1829 by Isaac Pierce, a Quaker millwright, is the only extant grist mill in Washington,\nD.C., as well as an outstanding example of vernacular stone construction: granite stone bearing walls on the\nexterior, and heavy timber beams and columns on the interior. The mill employed the first generation of\nOliver Evans' patented revolutionary elevator/conveyor automated industrial milling process. It is currently\noperated by the National Park Service for interpretation of the history of grist mills.\nRock Creek Park was created in 1890 and incorporated Pierce Mill and other mills situated in Rock Creek\nin the new park. The main shaft of the mill broke in 1897. The mill machinery was then gradually\ndismantled and Pierce Mill became a teahouse. In 1935, the mill was restored to a working mill by the\nNational Park Service, with T. T. Waterman as project architect. It was also restored to its original 19th\ncentury appearance; however, some changes to the machinery, waterwheel and structure have occurred since\n1936.\nDuring summer 1990, the team members documented the structure and existing machinery, as well as the\nmilling process. The majority of the fieldwork and drawings were accomplished this first summer, and the\nproject was completed in the Washington office during summer 1992. In 1936, HABS produced photographic\nand written documentation on the grist mill, to which the 1990 and 1992 documentation will serve as an\naddendum. The 1990 drawings were also used in restoration work on the mill.\n82\nHABS/HAER PROGRAMS\nE.R\nGROUND\nEXPLODED ISOMETRIC\nATTIC\nSECOND FLOOR\nFIRST FLOOR\nBASEMENT\nREDUCED TO SCALE\n-\nPIERCE MILL ROCK CREE PARK\nTREM STREE\nPierce Mill.

McBroom, AIA, Architect, Texas Tech University\nSummer Personnel\nPaul Homeyer, Architect, University of Texas\nAs part of the exterior restoration project, the Executive Residence and the National Capital Region-Office\nof the White House Liaison, NPS, began a five-year documentation project in 1988 to systematically record\nand update existing drawings on the exterior stonework.\nThe White House, built of soft Aquia Creek sandstone (1793 to 1800), was always intended to be painted.\nOver the past 200 years, thirty to forty layers of paint had been applied that collectively obscured the stone's\ndetail and ornament and, in many places, was uneven and peeling. As the exterior was restored, the old paint\nwas removed and the damaged stone was repaired or replaced and repainted. During this process, HABS\nrecorded the structure with photographs and measured drawings. These records show the exterior elevations\nwith the exposed stone graining and the previously hidden detail.\nThis was the last summer of the exterior recording project. This year's efforts were combined with the\ninterior project, and with the delineation of the stone coursing and graining patterns of the exposed stone onto\nthe base drawings that were produced during past summers. The final inked drawings were formatted to\nHABS standards and the exterior photographs were correlated with the interior photographs into one\ncomprehensive set for the transmittal to the Library of Congress.\nThe HABS recording project of The White House for the 200th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of The White House\nwas probably the most important permanent activity that we had undertaken in 1992.\n-Rex W.

The project has also contributed to several\nexhibitions on the architectural history of the White House.\nThe White House interior has continuously evolved to fit the needs of each new occupant, with major and\nminor changes executed at least every four years since its construction. Through this project, HABS has\nproduced an accurate, up-to-date set of drawings and large format photographs of the historic main house, as\nit currently exists.

Dyson, Historian, Ironbridge Institute, United Kingdom [ICOMOS]\nAmy E. Slaton, Historian, University of Pennsylvania\nIn the summer of 1991, HAER placed a team of six architects, two historians, and a photographer on Wright-\nPatterson Air Force Base to research and record the historic aeronautical engineering features of the most\nhistoric section of the base, the old Wright Field, now known as Area B. HAER was initially invited to\nWright-Patterson by the base's Office of Environmental Management and its historic preservation officer.\nThe project has been sponsored by that office and the Aeronautical Systems Center of Area B. HAER was\ngiven additional funding in September 1991 to continue its documentation of Area B in 1992. When the\nproject is complete, HAER will have comprehensively documented the site through the production of fifty-two\nsheets of drawings, 250 photographs, two brochures, and a published historical overview and inventory of\nstructures.\nWright Field was constructed in 1926, and was the home of the Army Air Corps' fledgling Materiel Division.\nEven though aeronautical engineering activities have continued on the base to the present, HAER was most\ninterested in structures and machinery dating from the early days of aeronautical engineering, the 1920s\nthrough the 1940s. HAER's architects and historians examined buildings, laboratory, equipment, and the\norganization of the site, using as a reference a historic structures inventory prepared by the base in association\nwith the Ohio Historic Preservation Office.\nHAER historians and architects together documented the complicated testing equipment developed by the\nArmy Air Corps. Immensely powerful propeller whirl rigs and wind tunnels (most of which are no longer\nintact) were used at Wright Field before and during World War II. In the final form, these were unlike any\nfound elsewhere, but part of HAER's analysis of this equipment was to determine which aspect had been\nborrowed from existing aeronautical technologies, and which were devised to suit the specific needs of Wright\nField's projects. This analysis placed Wright Field's facilities in their historical scientific context, and also\nilluminated the budgetary and administrative constraints operating on Air Corps engineers at different times.\nHAER's documentation of the site offers substantial data for historians of the military, architecture, and\nengineering of the country during this period.\n88\nKey to Isometric\nI Electric switches, relay switches, rheostat\nboxes, and accelerator resistors\n2.

Boucher, Photographer, HABS/HAER Office\nHarpers Ferry was only a wilderness in the early 1700s, situated on a point of land at the confluence of the\nShenandoah and Potomac rivers and dominated by the Blue Ridge Mountains in West Virginia. The first\nEuropean settler on this land was Peters Stephens, a trader, who arrived in 1733 and set up a primitive ferry\nservice at the junction of the two rivers. Fourteen years later, Robert Harper, a millwright and the man for\nwhom the town is named, settled there and took over Stephens' ferry operation. By the mid-nineteenth\ncentury, Harpers Ferry had developed from a tiny village to become an important industrial and arms-\nproducing center, as well as a transportation link between the East and West. The arrival of the Chesapeake\nand Ohio Canal and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in the 1830s assured Harpers Ferry of its economic\nsuccess.\nHowever, in October 1859, John Brown's raid broke the tranquility of this peaceful community and the\neighteen-month civil war that followed wreaked havoc on the town's economy. The armory, built by\nCongress in the 1790s at the urging of President George Washington, and arsenals were burned in 1861 to\nkeep them from falling into Confederate hands. Because of the town's geographic location and its railway\nsystem, both Union and Confederate troops travelled through or occupied the town intermittently throughout\nthe war. The largest military operation against Harpers Ferry occurred when General Thomas J. \"Stonewall\"\nJackson's Confederate troops seized the town and captured Colonel Dixon Miles' 12,000-man Union garrison--\nthe largest surrender of U.S. troops during the Civil War. Many townspeople moved away, discouraged by\ncontinual war damage and the lack of employment. After the war, some returned, hoping to begin life anew\nand to revive the economy of the town. In the late 1800s, chances for economic recovery were destroyed with\na series of devastating floods. For years, buildings remained empty, and the once-thriving industrial sites\nwere reclaimed by nature.\nThe 1992 HABS team prepared measured drawings of the Frederick A. Roeder Store, the Frederick Roeder\nHouse, White Hall Tavern, and the Armorer's Dwelling in Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. These\nstructures were previously documented by HABS in the late 1950s and early 1960s, but have undergone\nnumerous restorations and renovations since. The team recorded these buildings with greater precision, using\nmore accurate field techniques and up-to-date standards to show the structures as they presently stand. The\nbuildings were also re-photographed by Jack E. Boucher, duplicating views that he had originally produced\nin 1958 and 1962. All new material will be transmitted to the Library of Congress as addenda to earlier\nrecords in the collection.\n90\n.if\nor\n:\nKITCHEN\n13.8019.5\nr\nr\nIt's\n18.02\"\nON\nr.\n14'40' 19.5\"\nROOM\n7\nRUNS or ADDITION BULT CJ832-1852\nDESTROYED OR REMOVED BY FLOOD,\nPROBABLY IN 1936\ninto\n\"I\n=\n\"i\n|\n20\nFIRST FLOOR PLAN\nSCALE\nSECOND FLOOR PLAN\nTHIRD/ATTIC FLOOR PLAN\nD\nFEET 1/4\"+1'-0\"\n3\nMETERS\nArmorer's Dwelling House.

The Frank Wallace House\nwas built in 1915 for Frank Gates Wallace, brother of Bess Wallace Truman. The house is located at 601\nWest Truman Road, adjacent to the Truman home, as part of the family compound. The small bungalow of\nwood frame construction, clad in wood shingles, is typical of the neighborhood. The modest structure is\nenhanced with many typical twentieth century detalls: hardwood floors, wood baseboards, a brick fireplace,\ndecorative wood ceiling beams in the living and dining rooms, 3-over-1 double-hung windows, and locally-\nmade brass hardware. The original rear porch was remodeled as an extension to the kitchen.\nThe George Wallace house was built in 1916 for George Porterfield Wallace, another brother of Bess Truman.\nIt is located at 60 West Truman Road, adjacent to the Truman Home. The structure, a small bungalow, is\nalso of wood frame construction, clad in wood shingles. The structure includes a 1920s bedroom and\nbathroom addition and is enhanced with many typical twentieth century details: hardwood floors, wood\nbaseboards, a brick fireplace with built-in bookcases, decorative wood ceiling beams in the living room, 9-\nover-1 double-hung windows, and locally-made brass hardware.\nThe Noland/Haukenberry house was built in the mid-nineteenth century and purchased in 1908 by Joseph\nTilford Noland and Margaret Ellen Truman Noland, aunt and uncle of Harry S Truman. It was later owned\nby their granddaughter, Ardis Ragland Haukenberry. The house is located at 216 North Delaware Street,\ndirectly across from the Truman home. The two-story Victorian house, of wood-frame construction with\nclapboard siding, has been expanded over the years. The original section of the house is a two-story structure\nwith a gable roof and an L-shaped front porch with a spindle frieze. A two-story rear addition was built in\n1920, and later additions include a one-story rear kitchen wing and an enclosed south-facing porch. The house\nis enhanced with hardwood floors, wood baseboards, ornate hardware, and a number of colored glass\nwindows.\nThese properties were recently acquired by the National Park Service as part of an historic district adjacent\nto the home occupied by the Trumans during his presidency. The Wallace houses are early twentieth-century\nbungalows of the type found throughout the Midwest and the West, and the Noland-Haukenberry is a late\nnineteenth-century Victorian. Creating graphic documentation was especially critical for Noland-Haukenberry\n-- planned as future curatorial office space because of its weakened structural and material condition. The\nWallace houses will be upgraded for use as Park Service housing.\n92\nCHIMNEY\n29-8 3/4\"\nRIDGE\n26'-91/4°\nEAVE\n19'-0 1/2\"\nSECOND FLOOR\n10'-3 1/2\"\nEAVE\n90\n9-51/4*\nXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\nXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\nE\n®\nC.O.\n0\nFIRST FLOOR\n0'-0\"\nFASCIA\n-\n0-6\"\nGRADE\nE\n2-51/2*\nMATERIALS\nFOUNDATION BRICK\nWALLS\nWOOD CLAPBOARDS\nROOF\nASPHALT SHINGLES\nFRONT DOOR\nINTERIOR HARDWARE\nEAST ELEVATION\n1.4\n©\nFEET\nMETERS 48\n0\n2\n3\n-\nFULL SCALE\nFEET\n50\n00\nCENTIMETERS 112\nNoland/Haukenberry House.

Additionally, the inn, as constructed in 1937-40, did not successfully\nintegrate a poorly built 1920s structure of stone, petrified wood, and mud mortar.\n96\n- SURVEY\nAREZONA\na\nFEET\nVE.1.5\nNORTHEAST ELEVATION\nTHE PAINTED DESERT NN\nAPACHE COUNTY\nPOTHOUSE\nPETWED FOREST NATIONAL PARK\nSOUTHWEST ELEVATION\nNOTE WHOOWS AND DOORS\nFOR QUARITY SEE PLANS FOR LOCATION\nAND\nREY PLAN\nThe Painted Desert Inn.

Boucher, HABS Washington Office\nAerial Photography/Mapping: Air Survey Corporation of Sterling, Virginia\nDuring this second and last year of the pilot project to document Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway, an\nexpanded team of historians and delineators prepared comprehensive written and graphic materials that will\nfulfill two planned goals, to help establish HABS/HAER guidelines for recording such a site, and to provide\nbaseline information for park managers. The project as a whole falls under the aegis of HABS, which\nassessed the overall landscape and two adjacent service stations, while ten vehicular and pedestrian bridges\nare cataloged as HAER sites. This parkway--also designated Reservation No. 360 in the system of National\nCapital parks--was selected as the model for study because of its uncontested historic significance, integrity,\nsize, and proximity to the HABS/HAER Washington office. The documentation was timed to conclude before\nthe NPS initiates rehabilitation, which is slated to begin in 1996.\nThe methodology for drawing the parkway and its features was new for the division. As no complete set of\nas-is drawings were available, about 25 percent of the project budget was spent on aerial photography and\ndigitized mapping. Produced at a generous scale of 1\"=40', depicted are l' contours, individual trees with\ncanopy and trunk, the creek, bridge crossings, and more. The plans were redrawn by the summer team on\n34\" X 44\" mylar--fourteen sheets for the entire 2.5-mile parkway, from the Lincoln Memorial to the National\nZoo tunnel. An overlay system using pin-bar registration permitted the vegetation to be drawn on separate\nsheets. In addition, bridge elevations and landscape sections were made; there are forty-nine sheets in all.\nThe historians produced a comprehensive overview of the parkway from pre-construction to present day, as\nwell as individual reports on related bridges and filling stations.

This initiative was launched at the Hard Rock Mining Workshop held in Death Valley National\nMonument in January 1989. Since then, HAER has focused one of its documentation arms on historic gold\nmining and other hard-rock mining resources. Aside from the work done in Joshua Tree National Monument,\nthis particular project was the first venture cosponsored by the mining industry since the initiative was\nlaunched. The Bald Mountain Gold Mill is located in the gold fields of the Black Hills of South Dakota, on\nlands owned by Wharf Resources, a Canadian mining group.\nIn addition to histories and photographs, the team produced a series of process drawings that explain the\ncounter current decantation process for refining gold and other precious metals. This was particularly\nchallenging, as much of the mill had collapsed. However, enough of it remained that the combination of\nruins, original drawings, and eyewitness accounts by the last mill manager allowed the team to recreate the\nprocess on mylar.\nCounterclockwise, [top] Virginia Brumback, Robert Grzywacz,\nAlbert Aflenzer, Lee Ann Jackson, David Eve, and Joseph Elliott\npose on the Bald Mountain Gold Mill.\nPhotographer, Joseph Elliott, 1992\n102\n.\n19\nLEACHING\nBALO MOUNTAIN MEVADA MINING BULCH, AT THE COMPANY BALD BOTTOM MOUNTAIN CREEN GOLO MILL - 1907-1942\nLAWRENCE 8 OF FALLE COUNTY\nMILLING\n10000\nSCALE 1/\"=1\"-0\"\nLEAD\nMILL AXONOMETRIC\nPRECIPITATION\nNORTHERN SECTOR\nBALD MOUNTAIN\n1942\nALBERT -ALBERT AFLENZER 1992\nBALD MOUNTAIN GOLD MILL RECORDING PROJECT\n.\nBald Mountain Mining Company: Bald Mountain Gold Mill - 1907-1942.

Lawrence, Historian, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign\nThe team documented twelve cast and wrought-iron metal-truss bridges within Ohio that are representative\nof an important phase in the history of bridge engineering in the United States in general, and in the state in\nparticular. The replacement of wood with iron in such structures during the nineteenth century was one of\nthe first significant results of the Industrial Revolution.\nThe architects measured and produced record drawings on three of the bridges. A historian conducted\nresearch on the structures, relying on documents compiled by David Simmons of the Ohio Historical Society.\nLarge format photographs were produced of all twelve bridges.\nUpgrading the nation's highway infrastructure has accelerated the risk to historic bridges of all types, but the\nrarest is the composite cast and wrought-iron. Of the hundreds built between 1840-80, only sixty-four\nsurvive. To mitigate the threat to these engineering resources, Emory Kemp of the Institute for the History\nof Technology and Industrial Archaeology at West Virginia University and HAER Chief Eric DeLony initiated\na concerted program to document the survivors. Ohio was a major center for bridge fabrication during this\nperiod and, as a consequence, has a remarkable number of these types of bridges extant.\nn\nthe HAER team in Ohio proved to be a real winner this summer. The drawings look great and Mike's histories show much\nthought and in-depth research.\nDavid A.

The date was July 13, 1895, and the distance was twenty-two miles\nfrom Folsom to the city of Sacramento. The ultimate goal of this project was to deliver electricity by way\nof high-tension transmission lines at low cost to the industries and residential neighborhoods around San\nFrancisco, Oakland, and the Bay area. Now a California state park, Folsom Powerhouse was the flagship of\nPacific Gas and Electric, a major public utility of the Golden State, and is a designated national historic\nlandmark, a historic mechanical engineering landmark, and a national historic civil engineering landmark.\nPart one of this two-summer project consisted of locating and copying primary source materials, such as\ndrawings, photographs, plant and equipment inventories, original reports, specifications and correspondence\npertaining to planning, construction, development and operation of this hydroelectric complex. Accompanying\nthis information is a twenty to thirty-page annotated bibliography on Folsom and early hydroelectric\ndevelopment. In addition, recommendations for future research will be included. This initial phase of the\nproject also encompasses large format photography of Folsom. As a result of findings during phase one and,\npending the availability of funding, the second summer will produce a complete documentation package\nconsisting of measured and interpretive drawings, historical reports, and large format photographs.\n106\nExciter (foreground) and generator (top of picture), Folsom Power House.

Stumpf, Architect, Falls Church, Virginia\nRichard Vidutis, Historian, Takoma Park, Maryland\nThe Lost Horse Gold Mill was documented under HAER's Hard Rock Mining Initiative because it is a prime\ninterpretive site of turn-of-the-century gold-mining practices in the southern California deserts. It is significant\nbecause of the efficiency of its operation and is one of the few surviving ten-stamp gold mills in the United\nStates. Its location, directly over the mine shaft, negated the need for transporting ore to a central collection\npoint for processing and cut down markedly on operating costs, while increasing productivity and profit. Last\nsummer, HAER documented the Wall Street Mill and the Pinto Wye Arrastra.\nSince 25 percent of the mining complex is still standing, the team reconstructed the site on mylar through field\nmeasurements, archival research, and interviews with local informants knowledgeable of the Lost Horse Gold\nMine. The architects produced twelve sheets of measured and interpretive drawings. The historian's\ndocumentary research and interviews aided the architects in their reconstruction of the Lost Horse milling\noperation.\nBecause of the significance of archeological features in understanding and interpreting western mining sites,\na fourth component of archeology was included, supplementing traditional HAER drawings, photographs, and\nhistories. HAER drawings were annotated to include archeological features. Archeological reports were\nincluded as part of the written documentation.\nDocumentation of the Lost Horse Gold Mill, and the Wall Street Mill and Pinto Wye Arrastra accomplished\nin 1991, developed a considerable interest in early gold mining in Southern California. Tom Mulhern,\nassociate regional director for Park Historic Preservation, NPS Western Regional Office, currently plans to\npublish the work of these teams. Publication is to be undertaken by the Denver Service Center's Graphics\nDivision, Dick Morishegla, chief.\nThere was one unexpected event. The team was rudely awakened the Sunday morning after the project started\nby an earthquake centered near Yucca Valley, approximately twenty-two miles from the site and forty-four\nmiles from the field office. Neither site was damaged nor was the team harmed.\n108\nHAER PROJECTS\nThe 'stamp' consists of a\nin the mortar, ore rock IS fed\nstem, shoe, boss and tappet\nfrom the ore feeder to be\nEach stamp weighs between\nprocessed A mixture of\n750 and 800 pounds\nwater, ore rock and mercury\nBattery\nare mixed and crushed to a\nBull or\n@\nFrame\nfine sand-like consistency\n(pulp) which IS forced\nFly Wheel\nthrough the screen onto the\namalgamation table\nThe amalgamation table IS\ncoated with mercury The\nmercury adheres to the gold\nStem\nparticles to form an amalgam\nS\n6\nCam Shaft\n1\n@\n4\nCam\nTappet\nWood Guide/\nSplash Cover\n€\nMortar\nSingle Discharge\n@\n6\n'Fraser & Chalmers\n@\nWater\nChicago, ILL\nPipe\nChute or\nNo 33'\nFeed Throat\nScreen and\nScreen Frame\nBettery\nPlete\nBoss\nAmalgamation\nTable\nD\nMercury\nTrep\nTrough\nDie\nShoe\n3FL\n2\n0.5\nTwo - Five Stamp\n05\n0.5\n,\n15\nBattery\nAxonometric\nScale 12\nScale 1'-0\"\n- Martine Cash, 1992\nHISTORIC MINING INITIATIVE RECORDING PROJECT\nLOST HORSE GOLD MILL 1893\nI\nHISTORIC AMERICAN\n14 3/4 MILES BOUTH SOUTHWEST TWENTYHINE PALMS\nand\nI\nTWENTYHINE PALMS VICINITY\nRIVERSIDE COUNTY\nCALIFORNIA\nCA 120\nLost Horse Gold Mill - 1893.

The Merritt is one link in a much longer arterial \"express through-route\" that begins in New York\nCity and continues across Connecticut's Housatonic River as the Wilber Cross Parkway. It was singularly\ncreated to ease congestion on the Boston Post Road/U.S. Route 1, and in doing so opened up Fairfield County\nfor suburbanization. Architect George Dunkelberger (1891-1960) designed every bridge exterior, service\nstation, and toll plaza for the Merritt, as architect with the Connecticut Highway Department's Bureau of\nEngineering and Construction. Most notable are the dozens of Art Moderne and Art Deco bridges with\nexaggerated pylons, intricate sgraffito, and metal detailing. All built between 1935-40, the bridges define the\nMerritt as the nation's only non-rustic-style parkway. The project was sponsored by Connecticut Department\nof Transportation and Federal Highway Administration officials in anticipation of preparing a preservation plan\nfor the parkway, and ultimately restoring its landscape and bridges. The multi-disciplinary team of architects,\nlandscape architects, historians, and an engineer prepared comprehensive written and graphic information,\nincluding an extensive historical overview, ca. seventy individual bridge and building reports, and twenty-one\nsheets of drawings depicting the highly ornamental bridges and landscape features, and several hundred\ncontemporary and historic photographs.\n\"I would like to commend Ms. Sara Leach and the rest of the (HABS/HAER) study team for the outstanding job\ndone on the historic documentation of the Merritt Parkway. I have always appreciated the beauty and unique\ncharacter of the Merritt Parkway. This appreciation has been greatly enhanced by the information the HABS/HAER\nstudy has presented. I have also observed that since the staff of the Connecticut Department of Transportation has\nreviewed the HABS/HAER information on the Merritt Parkway, they have undertaken the necessary transportation\nimprovements to this facility in a much more sensitive manner and with an enlightened appreciation of its signi-\nficance.\nThe work of HABS/HAER has helped clarify this focus on the bridges and the landscape, and will\ncontinue to aid our efforts in these areas. I believe that the progress the Department has made in dealing with the\nsensitive issues associated with the Merritt Parkway has been significantly enhanced by the work of the HABS/HAER\nteam.\"\n--Emil H.

Quin, Historian, Middle Tennessee State University\nDaniella Trettel, Architect, National University of Cordoba, Argentina [ICOMOS]\nThe multi-year National Park Service Roads and Bridges Recording Project continued in 1992 with the\ndocumentation of Mount Rainier National Park's road system. This year the team studied the development\nof road and bridge construction from the first wagon road to the present, with a particular interest in road\nlandscapes. In 1891, James Longmire, first settler of the area, constructed a rough wagon road to Longmire\nSprings, known for its healing mineral waters. Mount Rainier National Park was established in 1899, and\nsoon after, the Army Corps of Engineers was commissioned to survey, design and construct the first\ngovernment road into the wilderness. The Corps' \"Road to Paradise,\" built across mountainous terrain, was\nhailed as the first road in America to reach a glacier and provided access to the bounty of wildflowers in the\nsubalpine meadows.\nWith the establishment of the National Park Service in 1916, new road proposals were surveyed and\nconstructed to satisfy the demand for access. The Park Service adopted a \"lay lightly on the land\" policy and\nestablished the rustic style of park design, using native stones, logs and other indigenous materials to\nharmonize with natural landscape. In 1925, the NPS and the Bureau of Public Roads (BPR) reached an\nagreement that shifted design and construction to BPR management. Today, many fine examples of historic\nbridges and other related structures remain in use, though threatened by safety codes, traffic increases, and\nthe harsh glacial environment of Mount Rainier. In addition to standard HAER documentation, an illustrated\ninterpretive brochure was produced for distribution to the visitors of Mount Rainier National Park.\n\"I was very impressed by the accomplishments and professionalism of these young people\nHopefully, the devotion expressed\nby the team has fostered an appreciation that will be reflected in future design and construction technologies that integrate design\ncomponents into the whole landscape with as much success as the original designers achieved.\nThe efforts of the HAER\nteam are extremely timely, as the park administration prepares Mount Rainier National Park to enter its second century, which\nbegins on March 2, 1999. The documentation of the historic bridges and road-related structures through measured and\ninterpretive drawings, large-format photographs, and written data will be extremely beneficial for us in this endeavor.\nWilliam J.

Bodensiek, Architect, Roger Williams College, Sally Kress Tompkins\nMaritime Intern\nMolly J. Horvath, Curator, Spring Point Museum\nDavid C. Switzer, SNOW SQUALL Project Director\nThe clipper ship SNOW SQUALL was the third of four vessels built by Cornelius Butler at his yard on\nTurner's Island in Cape Elizabeth (now South Portland), Maine. It was launched into the Fore River on July\n14, 1851, and for thirteen years flew the flag of New York merchant Charles R. Green in the Pacific and\nSouth American trades, carrying general cargoes out and bringing tea, spices and coffee in. On her final\nvoyage in 1864, bound from New York to San Francisco, she ran aground in the Straits of LeMaire near Cape\nHorn, and was sailed to Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands, where she was condemned and abandoned after\ntransshipment of her cargo and sale of her gear.\nSNOW SQUALL lay as a hulk at the Falkland Islands Company jetty for more than a century, subject to harm\nby natural and human causes. Photographs taken ca. 1880 reveal wood stripped from her upper hull for use\nas building material. Storms and rot caused further damage, tons of stone jetty blocks shattered and covered\nher midsection, and a sinking barge crushed her stern. By the mid 1980s, the only intact accessible remains\nof this ship consisted of her bow, from the keel up to 'tweendeck level. Four archeological expeditions,\nsponsored by Harvard University's Peabody Museum of Archeology and Ethnology, achieved preliminary\ndocumentation of SNOW SQUALL's bow between 1982 and 1986, recovering all above-water structural\nmembers. In 1987, the final expedition conducted by Spring Point Museum retrieved the bow's 36'-long\nunderwater section.\nSNOW SQUALL's bow survives today as the sole remaining example of the hundreds of American-built\nclipper ships that made record-setting voyages carrying goods and passengers to and from Gold Rush-era\nCalifornia, Australia, and the Far East. A clipper was very narrow in proportion to length, with a sharp\nhollow bow; it was square-rigged, typically with an enormous spread of canvas. Vessels of this type\ndeveloped in the 1840s were designed for speed rather than large cargo capacity in a boom time of high\nfreight rates. By the late 1850s, economic conditions favored slower ships of greater cargo capacity and\nsmaller crews, so clipper construction was abandoned.\nThis HAER project produced measured drawings, a written historical report and large-format photographs of\nthe bow.\n114\nHAER PROJECTS\nTop to bottom, HAER architect Dale Waldron and HAER intern Karl Bodensiek assist SNOW SQUALL project director\nDavid Switzer in attaching station lines to the bow section of the clipper ship in preparation for their measurement\nof the curvature of the hull's starboard side.

The five National Park Service\nregional offices charged with external historic preservation responsibilities administer the HABS/HAER\nmitigative documentation program. The actual work is usually conducted by contractors and supervised by\nthe responsible Federal agency. The documentation produced is reviewed by the regional coordinator and\ntransmitted to the HABS/HAER Washington office for inclusion in the HABS/HAER collections at the Library\nof Congress.

We meet for\nan oversight hearing on the Historic American Building Survey,\nHABS, and the Historic American Engineering Record, HAER.\nAmerica has a long and rich architectural heritage in historic\nbuildings and engineering structures which still remain as evi-\ndence of how earlier Americans lived, worked, and worshipped.\nSince the establishment of HABS in 1933 and HAER in 1969, sur-\nveys have been completed and documentation has been recorded on\nmore than 27,000 structures all of which are now in the Library of\nCongress for research and are accessible to the American public.\nBecause of their holistic approach and extraordinary vision,\nthese programs have brought about an increased awareness of pres-\nervation needs and preservation technology. In the initial memo-\nrandum from Charles Peterson, architect with the National Park\nService, to his superiors, he stated that such a survey, \"should be a\nlist of building sites which include public buildings, churches, resi-\ndences, bridges, forts, barns, mills, shops, rural outbuildings, and\nany other kind of structure of which there are good specimen\nextant and those structures which by fate or accident are identified\nwith historic events.\"\nHABS operates under congressional authorization and a tripar-\ntite agreement among the Department of Interior, the Library of\nCongress, and the American Institute of Architects.

The Society's goals are to develop engineers who will im-\nprove technology and apply it to further the objectives of society as\na whole, to promote the dedication and technical capability of its\nmembers, and to advance the profession of civil engineering.\nIn addition to my responsibilities with ASCE, I currently serve as\nChief of the Materials Testing Laboratory here at the Philadelphia\nWater Department. I brought along with me today Edward Ku-\nchefski, who is the Director of the Fairmount Water Works Inter-\npretive Center for the Philadelphia Water Department, as he\nwould have an interest in the hearing today.\nASCE has a deep and longstanding interest in the Historic Amer-\nican Engineering Record. America's vast size, plentiful natural re-\nsources and regional differences have contributed to the nation's\nrich and diverse history of technical invention and innovation. His-\ntorical structures not only testify to the creativity and imagination\nof America's engineers and builders, but also illustrate the nation's\nphysical development and document its technological heritage.\nThe Historical American Engineering Record was established in\n1969 by an agreement among the Department of the Interior, the\nLibrary of Congress, and ASCE. This accord, also known as the tri-\npartite agreement, was later ratified by four other engineering so-\ncieties: the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the Insti-\ntute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, the American Institute\nof Chemical Engineers, and the American Institute of Mining, Met-\nallurgical and Petroleum Engineers.\nUnder the tripartite agreement, the Interior Department's Na-\ntional Park Service administers the HAER program with funds ap-\npropriated by Congress and supplemented by donations from out-\nside sources. The National Park Service sets qualitative standards,\norganizes and staffs recording projects, and selects sites for docu-\nmentation. The Library of Congress curates the records, makes\nthem available for study, and provides reproductions to the public.\nASCE and other engineering societies provide professional counsel\nthrough their national memberships.\nHAER performs a valuable role by documenting the nation's his-\ntoric industrial and engineering heritage. HAER surveys and docu-\nments America's historic industrial, engineering, and transporta-\ntion resources, and records the working and living conditions of the\n18\n19\npeople associated with them. HAER conducts a nationwide pro-\ngram of documentation in cooperation with state and local govern-\nments, private industry, professional societies, universities, and\nASCE\nAMERICAN SOCIETY OF\npreservation groups, as well as other Federal agencies.\nCIVIL ENGINEERS\nRecognizing that many significant technological resources cannot\nWashington Ollice\nbe saved, HAER documents the historic structures and objects\n1015 15th Street, N.W., Suite 600\nthrough measured and interpretive drawings, large-format photo-\nWashington, D.C. 20005\n(202) 789-2200\ngraphs, and written data.

Kostmayer\nChairman\nSubcommittee on Energy and Environment\nCommittee on Interior and Insular Affairs\nDear Mr. Chairman:\nU.S. House of Representatives\nWashington, D. C. 20515-6201\nI appreciate your invitation to present testimony at the oversight hearing to\nexamine the Issues surrounding the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) and the\nHistoric American Engineering Record (HAER). I regret that prior commitments prevent my\nattendance. C. Ford Peatross, Curator of Architecture, Design, and Engineering Collections\nin our Prints and Photographs Division, will state the position of the Library of Congress in\nmy stead.\nThe Library of Congress helped to initiate both of these excellent programs\nand remains responsible for the preservation, organization, and service to the public of the\ndocumentation which they produce. Since the first HABS records arrived at the Library of\nCongress in 1934, these collections have grown to be among our largest and most widely\nknown and used. Today, thousands of historic sites and structures throughout the nation bear\nbronze plaques stating that their HABS or HAER documentation in preserved in the Library\nof Congress.\nThe Library is proud of this achievement and takes seriously its responsibilities\nas a party to the tripartite agreements under which the Historic American Buildings Survey\nand the Historic American Engineering Record operate. It is in this light that I support the\nreactivation of the two advisory boards which serve as the principal mechanisms for the\nproper functioning of these agreements and as outstanding models of the benefits of\ncooperation between both government agencies and the public and private sectors.\nIn addition, I would like to recommend that you consider the possibility of\nmaking available 10 these programs the resources necessary to allow emergency recording of\nendangered historic sites or structures, a long-standing need.\n31\nMr. Kostmayer. Thank you very much. Ms. Maxman, let me ask\nyou about this documentation which is collected. Since I am not an\nMr. BOWERS.

But do you think it has some use beyond use to\nto look at it to, I think, weigh the benefits of reestablishing against\narchitects and to engineers who would understand it?\nwhat the costs might be.\nMs. Maxman.

Howsvar, Mr. Chris r. Dela-\nporta, Dirsctor of HCRS and the Exacutiva's rapresentetiva in the\nAgreement, has chosen to trest this Agreement casually by failing\nto inform or consult with the other partiee of the Agreement. The\nTripertite Agreement is e legel document thet requires consultation\nand must not be ignored. It preecribad a means of consultstioo\nthrough an eppointed Advisory Board. Since the creetion of HCRS,\ncooperetion among tbs parties of the Agraement has ceased to exist,\nand the Advisory Boerd has been purportedly termsd by Hr. Delaporte\nto be \"technically dsed\".
