This resource provides information about registering orchards or single fruit trees in the National Register of Historic Places. It also showcases the historical context of some orchards in the U.S. One such orchard is the Buckner Orchard at North Cascades National Park Service Complex here in Western Washington.
“In Lake Chelan National Recreation Area of the North Cascades National Park Service Complex, the Buckner Homestead Historic District contains a 90-year old apple orchard that reflects the revolutionary event in the modern period of orchard fruit growing: the discovery of the Delicious apple variety by the Stark brothers. This discovery transformed the growing of apples in the 20th century. Among the oldest trees of the Buckner orchard are the trees of the Common Delicious strain of the Delicious variety – Stark Brothers Nursery's name for the early, unimproved variety they acquired as “Hawkeye,” a red and yellow apple. The Buckner orchard is the oldest and largest known plantation of the variety in the United States and represents the advent of the Delicious variety before it was turned into a red apple, or Red Delicious variety, through strain selection in the 1920s.”

The #topgun house is one of the most #recognizablehomes in America. Originally built in 1887, it's now a stylish restaurant and only a short drive from a #farmhousegetaways property.

Good afternoon, everyone - we would like to offer a Very Happy 90th Birthday to one of America's most iconic locations - Radio City Music Hall. Tuesday, December 27th, 1932, the curtain goes up for the very first time at 1260 6th Avenue (Avenue Of The Americas). These images were taken between late November through December 26th, 1932 - she is seen here as quiet as a tomb, untouched and ready for the big step off - not unlike a grand ship just before her launching. In some of the photos, you'll see workmen putting on the finishing touches or a stray piece of equipment ready to be picked up and removed. The final image was taken on opening night - today - 9 decades ago. I wanted to share these in contrast to the flurry of activity that RCMH is still known for to this day. Ironically, Radio City had a catastrophic opening night - the live performance program ran from 8pm to 2am, and acts had to be crammed and many patrons simply up and left. It was a public relations nightmare. A month later, after restructuring and a few sackings, things turned around. Moving pictures were added to the rotation and the epic, ground-breaking "King Kong" was to premiere there in March, 1933. Ever since, Radio City has become the benchmark location for movie premieres, and some of the most popular music and theatrical performances of all time. And the rest, as they say, is history. 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: Getty Images (all) #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #onlyinnewjersey #njspots #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #radiocitymusichall #rockefellercenternyc #rockefellercenter #newyorkcityhistory #nyhistory #nyhistoricalsociety #therockettes #performancearts #newyorkcitylandmarks #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #1930movies #radiocity #avenueoftheamericas (at Radio City Music Hall) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmrl0H_gshQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another view of the Poor Farm from the front. This Farm, which is 110 acres total, is near and dear to my heart, as I was able to help with the purchase of it for the City of Boulder’s Open Space and Mountain Parks Division. It is now protected for all to enjoy. I especially love how these green Onyx Vases, many of which will be available on our Live Sale this weekend match in with the colors of the house and grasses. 💚🤎🧡 - - - #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #queenannestyle #onyx #greenonyx #bandedonyx #vases #crystalvase #onyxvase #livesale #livesales #livecrystalsale #crystallivesale #brickhouse #brickhome #crystalsofinstagram #crystalsofig #flowervase #flowervases #homedecor #homedesign #interiordesign #crystalmagic #crystalporn #crystallove #crystallovers #crystalart #energyhealing #healingjourney #shareyourheart #handsofspirit (at Hands of Spirit Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEX54aDBUzp/?igshid=8ajt9r6pwh0i

Queen Anne. Built 1884. This home was a part of the Couch Family Investment Development and is perched on the edge of the Nob Hill, then referred to as the West End. Originally 8 adjacent homes, the remaining 4 are known as the “Irving Street Ensemble”. While 3 of the 4 were largely renovated in the 1970s after years of deterioration, this Queen Anne is virtually intact! Original molding, baseboards, wainscoting, fir floors, stairway balusters, etc. In the 1880s, Captain John Couch and family built some of Portland’s finest homes. The significance of the Irving Street houses lies primarily in the fact that they represent an intact collection of the modest Queen-Anne structures common to the area at the time! #portland #historic #historichomes #queenanne #historicportlandhomes #preservation #pnw #neportland #restoration #architecture #design #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #pdx #nobhill #realestate #pacificnorthwest #rosecity #stumptown (at Nob Hill, Portland) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2XYX7vhqhV/?igshid=14yqzykzsw2gp

Constructed to serve all of North America, it is the second Baháʼí House of Worship ever and the oldest one still standing. Ironically, it was designed by the French-Canadian architect Louis Bourgeois. • • • #chicagoland #igerschicago #usa #illinois #wilmetteillinois #louisbourgeois #lookup #bahai #baháí #bahaifaith #temple #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #cookcounty #architecture (at Baha'i House of Worship for North America) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoDoh83P-nz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
