Shoulda told you about this!
Thaks for all the DC photo! Have you seen WikiProject_National_Register_of_Historic_Places/Fall_2011_Photo_Contest. The contest starts on Friday October 21 (photos taken and uploaded after October 20)

I think there is a minor mistake on your part, and a major mistake on my part about the Takoma HD. I'll try to correct them tonight.

Gotta run.

Grant Road (disambiguation)
Hi, I've tagged Grant Road (disambiguation) for speedy deletion under G6, as it currently disambiguates only two pages of which one of these is the primary topic. I added a hatnote at Grant Road which should resolve the need to disambiguate from the Historic District. Best, France 3470   ( talk ) 07:35, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

WP:PR
FYI Peer review/National Register of Historic Places listings in Downtown Davenport, Iowa/archive1...when I nominate it for WP:FL I'll include you, and let you know ahead of time. C T J F 8 3 20:24, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Farragutful (talk) 20:26, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Several reasons to say hi.
 * Outstanding photo work in DC
 * and starting the Dr. Franklin E. Kameny House
 * a Walking Map to the hardest place to get in DC (I hope)
 * the PR of Downtown Davenport should go well I'd think
 * I've rarely given out barnstars, but have to learn sometime. Just let me know when and where (and a maximum number) and I'll go and hire a truck.
 * Happy thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Smallbones (talk) 03:26, 23 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I knew about the boundary marker near the Potomac, and the map, but I was running out of daylight the day I was down there.  We're supposed to have good weather here for the next week so I might try again.  It's like going to the other side of the world for some reason and I know very little about South DC so I'll see what I can do and what kind of time I have.  I want to get a picture of the Kameny House, however.  Happy Thanksgiving. Farragutful (talk) 22:32, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
 * we all know you won the DC challenge to the photo contest. why didn't you self report?  Slowking4 ⇔ †@1₭ 13:14, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Since you have more detailed experience about individual properties, in general the downtown properties are what, like early residences of the city? I mean I can look and count myself, but I guess I'm just thinking of something general to put in the lead to summarize all of the properties. I don't think I want to put # of houses, # of commercial buildings, # of fire stations, sounds boring to me. C T J F 8 3 21:23, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * The downtown area is primarily made up of late 19th and early 20th century commercial buildings. It's also where the office buildings are located.  Another focal point would be the government buildings.  The primary residential buildings are apartment buildings, which includes the apartments above the commercial space on the ground floor.  There are a few houses, but most of the houses in the dowtown area are now on the east and west listings.


 * I've been in town for a funeral and was going to try and get some pictures, but when I was able to do so its been cloudy. I'll be back next week and I'll try again. I thought I would focus on the west end, although the Putam-Parker Block needs a pic or two.  Farragutful (talk) 14:36, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Awesome! That would be great! Ya, I've been trying to get some, but it's been real cloudy the last few weeks. Plus I work 3rd shift, so on the days I work, if the sun is even out, there is maybe 1-1.5 hours of sunlight left by the time I wake up. Thanks for your help!

Pics
Good work on the pics! Did you enjoy your weekend in the lovely QC? C T J F 8 3 02:13, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Of course I had a lovely weekend in the QCs. Like you have to ask.  I have a few more pics of houses on West Third that I'll upload today.  I wanted to do more, but there wasn't enough time.  I have tentative plans to return this summer.  I can try and get out then and get whatever is still left, or at least redo my pics that I don't like. Farragutful (talk) 18:24, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, I hope to get some myself, and get downtown to FL soon. C T J F 8 3  22:01, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Didn't you have a pic of the parking lot for Building at 1119-1121 W. Third Street? C T J F 8 3 22:42, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
 * No, I didn't think about it when I drove by and saw th building was gone. Farragutful (talk) 00:55, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok I'll get one :) C T  J  F  8 3  18:33, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Sioux City, Iowa
I notice that you've recently made some edits to National Register of Historic Places listings in Woodbury County, Iowa, and created an article about the Badgerow Building and the Warrior Hotel in Sioux City.

If you're planning to work up a set of articles on Sioux City sites, I expect to be up there with my camera within the next month or so (at the request of User:Frankie Rae, who's been working hard to improve our coverage of buildings by William L. Steele). If there are specific buildings that you'd like photographed, please feel free to leave a list at my talk page. If there are particular aspects of buildings that want to be shown, suggestions would be welcome. Ammodramus (talk) 16:50, 11 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Will put the Badgerow Bldg, Warrior Hotel, Augustana Lutheran, and Sioux City Baptist on my to-be-photographed list. If the last is by Steele, you might be well advised to contact Frankie Rae, who seems very well informed about him and might have the information needed to reconcile your conflicting sources.  Ammodramus (talk) 17:16, 11 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Seeing I've been invoked, I'm joining this conversation. I've been working on and off on an article about the Steele-designed Prairie School church at 1301 Nebraska. Originally built as the First Congregational Church, later sold to the Sioux City Baptists, and most recently the Iglesia Pentecostes Evangelica Principe de Paz. There's quite a bit of contradictory information about it, and I've been working through it slowly. Was there something in particular you were puzzled by? --Frankie Rae (talk) 03:28, 13 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Will definitely try to hit 1301 Nebraska on my next trek to Sioux City, which I hope will be later this month. Are there any particular features of the building that I should try to shoot?


 * Incidentally, I've finally posted my photos at Commons:Category:T. S. Martin and Co. department store (Sioux City, Iowa). I still haven't finished editing my pictures of the Woodbury County Courthouse, but I haven't forgotten it.  Ammodramus (talk) 05:07, 13 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Sorry, I've been battling a cold and haven't been online much the last several days. The Badgerow Bldg has a plethora of decorative elements including Indian heads, entryways and the rooftop level.  The Warrior Hotel also has a variety of terra cotta decor that would be nice to capture.  Augustana Lutheran is a nice church overall, but I'm not sure if there is anything in particular that you need to focus on.Farragutful (talk) 19:08, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

DC pix
I tried to finish up the DC NRHP photos on Thursday, but didn't get all of them. The Gallinger Hospital should be easy, but I got the wrong building! There's a new listing which I hadn't noticed for a school. The SE 9 boundary marker would require some ropes or maybe mountain-climbing equipment (not to mention the 2 mile one way walk) to get under the I-295 bridge safely, but at least I found a 1907 photo. Consider that one done - or maybe hire a helicopter! I'll be going to get the Carousel early AM on May 4 to get shots without kids in them, and will take care of the odds and ends then. I know that I've put in a few photos under the rule "better some picture than nothing" - if you have anything that you think should be re-taken please note that at WikiProject National Register of Historic Places/unillustrated DC

All the best,

Smallbones (talk) 19:14, 2 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Getting some of the final photos has been on my to-do list, but I've been abnormally busy with work and haven't gotten to it. I also took a picture of the wrong building for the Gallinger Hospital. When I tried to find out which of the buildings in the complex it was I learned that the building has been torn down, although it is still listed on both the DC historic list and the NRHP.  I will try and get the Margaret Murray Washington School soon.  I know where it's at and I should have time this month. At the same time I might attempt the wilds of SW Washington to get a photo of the last boundary marker.  We'll see.Farragutful (talk) 20:08, 2 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for all the work. It'll be great to get the whole list of photos marked "done", but it certainly will get done in time for Wikimania.  I'll advise against SE 9.  I went out there Thursday and it's a nice 1+ mile walk in the park, but then gets all overgrown and swampy with fallen down trees (btw I saw signs of beaver habitation).  After hacking though the undergrowth, I got a good view of the "underpass" for the bridge - there really isn't one.  It's a steep pile of rocks and gravel going from the bridge concrete to the water directly below for maybe 30 yards out to the underpass - then 8 lanes across of the same thing - and presumably another 30 yards of the same on the other side going back to the mainland.  Pretty dangerous stuff - it might be safer just parking on the side of the interstate - but I'd never recommend that.  So, in short, a 1907 photo seems good enough. (I'll send photos of the "landmarks" if you really don't believe me!)


 * All the best,
 * Smallbones (talk) 21:31, 2 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Sounds like there's no reason to go to SW DC. BTW, I'm going to be out of town during Wikimania.  Thanks for including me in the info you sent earlier.  I'll continue to look up info and write articles on the remaining DC properties.  Farragutful (talk) 21:41, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

5pm Thursday May 3 at the National Cathedral
But 1st you might want to send an encouraging message to User:Ellin Beltz

I don't know if you are still interested, but I'll be meeting with the Spring Flower Show people at the All Hallows Guild Carousel at the above time and place. Please join if you can. Rain date is 9am the following morning, and I may go Friday evening as well to get the carousel in action, with indistinct pictures of kids. I don't like the potential hazards of photographing identifiable kids, so my main thrust will be on the animal figures while the kids aren't there (i.e. Thursday). I also promised you and a couple others dinner - how about that Friday at an old NRHP firehouse in Georgetown, the Vigilant Firehouse (Washington, D.C.)? Smallbones (talk) 15:04, 17 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the invitation. I cannot make it May 3, but I am interested in dinner on the 4th.  However, my mom has developed significant health problems so I might go back to Iowa that weekend.  Nothing has been determined yet, but I'll let you know well in advance. Farragutful (talk) 00:45, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

St. John's replica location
Where is the building Commons:File:St. John's SS 1.jpg? Is it on the grounds of the Georgia Ave. church, the Rosensteel Ave. church, or somewhere else? I was thinking of proposing an article move from St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church (Silver Spring, Maryland) to St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church (Montgomery County, Maryland) because of the two locations, but if the replica is outside Montgomery County, then it gets a bit complicated (unless there is no other St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in Maryland). --Closeapple (talk) 00:56, 19 September 2012 (UTC)

 * I couldn't agree more. Actually, I was kind of surprised last summer by how many were in half-way decent shape.  I also realized that another one has been torn down (William Claussen House).  Svendsen has a picture in one of her books and none of the ones on that bloock look like it.  There's a "newer" house where it should have been with a different address. A house with that address (2215 W. 2nd St.) doesn't exist.  I think I got all the ones that are still standing. Farragutful (talk) 02:07, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
