By GORDON BOCK PHOTOS BY JAMES C. MASSEY or lovers of old houses, additions pose a tail -chasing conundrum. We enjoy and value the architec- ture of earlier eras, often meticu- lously restoring it to original form and fea- tures. In fact, we regularly find that the best houses of the past offer better design and construction than many houses built or altered today —especially those that are products of the current building boom and its emphasis on volume for volume's sake. Yet the realities of a modern lifestyle some- times requires more space than an old house can supply, say for a growing family or 21 st-century needs like a garage or home office. On top of this there's the philosophi- cal irony that our old house may derive the Tastefully arrang- ing secondary masses, such as wings, porches, and gables, and connecting them to the primary mass or main house is part of what residential design —and new additions to old houses —is all about. very character we love from wings or dorm- ers added long ago. What to do? While there is no universal answer to this puzzle, there is an approach: the sensi- tive addition —that is, a major alteration or expansion that respects the architecture and detailing of the historic structure. In this day and age, it's not hard to find exam- ples of insensitive additions; they seem to be on every street corner. More difficult is finding your way among the forest of advice on and examples of additions that surround us. To help, following are some basic guideposts and parameters to con- sider and lead you on your way to sensitive additions that are successful and satisfy- ing both for you and your old house.

DRAWINGS BY ROB LEANNA 48 OLD -HOUSE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER2006 www.oldhousejournal.com Houses of the recent past often lack the main body mass of pre - 1940s styles, so additions tend to operate outside of traditional patterns. The sloped roof seen here is on a later room in Hollin Hills, a 1950s modern neighborhood in Virginia. What is a Sensitive Addition? The trouble with additions is that they are not merely renovations, generally defined as upgrades of existing components or fea- tures. In contrast, additions are major alter- ations to a building driven by the need to embrace more space within the walls, and this can lead to radical changes and dra- matic aesthetic effects from a preservation perspective. Since part of the National Park Service's mandate is to protect the integrity of properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places, their perspective is where the subject of sensitive additions starts. According to Kay Weeks of the Service's Preservation Assistance Division,"The con- cept of rehabilitation allows some change for a contemporary use, but a new addition has the potential to damage or destroy the character -defining materials and features of a historic building:' Preservation Brief #14 (available at www.cr.nps.gov/hps/tps/ briefs/brief14.htm) further outlines the scope of a sensitive addition from a preser- vation standing noting, in short, that an addition meets the standards of rehabilita- tion if it follows three key points: • Preserves significant historic materials and features. • Preserves the historic character. • Protects the historical difference by making a visual distinction between old and new. How these parameters are imple- mented, ultimately rests on the skills of a The ideal addition solution is a wing that is subordinate to the main house and positioned behind it. Emulating details on the origi- nal house like roof pitch and siding (but keeping them clearly later) helps integrate the new work. good designer and builder. But observing some time-honored concepts and com- monly employed guidelines can help. Understand and Respect the Massing The success of an addition often turns on its relationship to the main body of a house. Therefore recognizing and understanding the massing (basic shape) of the main body is key to developing additions that are sen- sitive to the historic structure. If you look at old houses built in styles or types that pre- date the modernist ideas of the 1930s and '50s you can usually identify a main body, the dominant and most important form. Once you've established the massing, how do you respect it? A good rule -of - 50 OLD -HOUSE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER/OCrOBER 2006 www.oldhousejournal.com y,. + M .. T T a *' It / i. w. 3 v 9 Y p i � f q Y \. r L� Given then that additions should be thumb is by subordinating the addition through one or more ways. When viewed logically, building parts look most natural when their relative prominence is consis- tent with their relative importance. Put another way, less important parts —which is what additions to old houses usually are —make the most visual sense when they are subordinate to the most important part or parts of the house —the main, orig- inal body. This pattern is often very appar- ent in vernacular architecture where, tradi- tionally, additions were secondary to the main body of the house in both their phys- ical dimensions and often in their con- struction values. Sticking to this hierarchy maintains the major impact of the main body of the house and its design ele- ments —an important criterion for historic area review boards —while encouraging an addition that looks right historically less -then -primary parts of an old house, how then do you subordinate an addition? Typically through the following. Reduced Scale —Make sure the addition is significantly smaller. Height is especially important, and is best kept below the eave line of the original building. A common example is a one -storey addi- tion to a two -storey house. In contrast, additions that cross over this threshold to become overly wide or even bigger than the original house upset the scale and pro- portion of the original house, making it look less of its era and more of the con- temporary world of McMansions. Secondary position —The less you tamper with the primary elevation of an old house, the less risk you run of compro- mising its historic character. The street side or front facade holds the most impor- tant features, materials, and design ele- ments, and carries a lot of weight. The sec- ondary or rear elevations, where there are typically fewer details to impact and less visibility to be concerned with, are the non -primary facades and the first places to consider placing an addition. Setbacks —Recessing an addition a significant distance from the front wall plane attenuates its visual impact, even when the overall volume approaches that of the original house. At the same time, a setback maintains the outer edges of the original house so that the historic form that defines it is still visible. In contrast, building a wing flush with the front of a house will, in effect, enlarge the facade, often making it too wide. Subordinate materials —Though there is technically no hierarchy of build- ing materials that applies to additions on 52 OLD -HOUSE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 216 www.oldhousejournal.com This house was enhanced with additions at either end sometime in the early 20th century. While the reduced height of the wings helps them read as subordinate, the lack of setbacks melds them with the main building into one massive facade highlighted by the horizon -like pent roof. old houses, most designers and preserva- tionists feel it is not easy to surpass the level of the main house in the new work, Traditionally most builders opted for the lesser expense and permanence of say wood over masonry, or brick over stone, when adding on, and this practice still looks natural on an old house today. Be Guided by Similarity Designers in all disciplines have long recognized that unity is a valuable, even essential, quality. In architecture, unity comes into play as the arrangement of parts otherwise unrelated so that the building comes off as a coherent composi- tion, or as the critic John Beverley Robinson put it in 1908, "the mind loses sight of the separate objects and notes only the single whole, versus stuck-ons, gingerbread:' Unity has even more rele- vance for additions, which are, by nature, alterations that are applied to an existing building, but are most successful when the final house looks of a piece. A primary way to encourage unity is to maintain similarity. Similarity of purpose —What really helps a house to feel of a piece is to main- tain a similarity of shape among the parts that share the same purpose. Windows, for example, are a prime concern in making sensitive additions and work best when they take their cues from the old fenestra- tion. Sizes can vary if the general propor- tions of the originals are continued. Similarity of roofs —Pitch is a spe- cific example of the similarity principle. Though there are successful exceptions, a very helpful rule of thumb is to make sure that all roofs on a building stick to the same pitch. Specific Issues Every addition to an old house is dif- ferent, and the sensitive solutions have to be worked out on a case -by -case basis. This being said, many additions to old houses fall into one of three general types —wings, garages, and dormers — and looking at how some of the aforemen- tioned ideas are often applied can help with planning new additions Wings —An ancient method for increasing living space, wings can have a dramatic impact on an old house, and their success as additions rests on their position as well as their shape and size. Though wing additions are sometimes recommended for the front of contempo- rary houses, this approach is extremely precarious for an old house because it immediately alters with the primary his- toric facade, and flies in the face of tradi- tional expansion patterns. Side wings are far less fraught with problems, but they too must be compatible in massing, size, and setback. Some designers recommend that wings be set back from the front of the house a distance no less than half the width of the wing. Connecting the wing to the main house by means of a hyphen or passageway helps reduce its impact visual- ly and structurally and, where practical, is a favored approach in preservation circles. Adding a wing or two also increases the complexity of the house. This presents the opportunity to enhance the interest of the house if done sensitively. Garages —Again heeding the dictum that a feature's appearance should be relat- ed to its purpose, garages tend to look best when they are smaller than the main house. This may sound obvious, until one Left: In Alexandria, Virginia, the original block of this 1781 house features gable dormers with Georgian style tri- angular and arched pediments, a detail picked up in the 1980s addition dormer. 54 OLDHOUSE JOURNAL SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2006 • MORE FROM OLDHOUSE- JOURNAL.COM For related stories online, see "Projects That Pay You Back" and "What Date Do I Restore To?"

Expanding this lath century Pennsylvania stone house dis- plays a sensitive use of a tradition- al addition mate- rial — wood — that respects the original structure. notes how many recently built houses compete with a massive three -car garage with doors running across the front of the building. The objection here is not only the volume of the garage but the orientation. Though spec development builders will invariably favor creating the shortest driveway distance between street and garage, in contrast the best way to mitigate the impact of a garage is to have it open on the secondary side of the lot so the doors do not face the street. If the house is on a corner lot, the side street becomes the nat- ural place to face the garage. Attached garages are effectively wings and should be treated with the same guidelines, including a setback equal to their width. One -car versions are best for old houses, not only because of their historic prece- dents but also because they reduce the opportunity for massing problems. fit! nE Rear dormer expansions fueled by the quest for bigger baths are every- where, but when they don't look quite right, it's probably because they lack similari- ty with the house's other roof types (gable vs. shed), pitches (steep vs. low), or dormer sizes (small vs. full - width running to ridge). 9p � '/5 \i Y 0 �VD O�1�p0 t At ` • f' Leitersburg Co 9 Q�� 3pp 9G9O `roo , ji O 111%111 wr i r J 1 j, )i y J 1 IS" lb s a IV LNPS Form 10-900 -` - OMB No. 10024-0018 (Oct. 1990) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form This form is for use in nominating or requesting determinations for individual properties and districts.

The village square is centered on the intersection of the old Nicholson's Gap Road, which runs gently downhill from northeast to southwest, and the Smithsburg-Leitersburg-Greencastle (PA) road which runs downhill from the southeast to the Antietam Creek several hundred yards to the northwest. This square retains three original early 19th century brick buildings; a tavern, general store, and dwelling; as well as a late 19`h century wooden frame grocery store/ meeting hall. Most of the 30 original log buildings, somewhat altered, remain. These are typically simple, vernacular buildings. Several examples of brick, stone, and wood frame buildings are found in the village, as well as historic institutions including churches and a 1914 school. The tree -shaded town retains its approximate 181 5-1830 appearance and its rural setting amidst 200 -year -old farms. The construction of the MD Rt. 60 bypass in the 1950's helped preserve the town. General Description: The Leitersburg Historic District consists of 53 original lots plus 6 lots added in the early 19`h century. Several adjacent 1 9`h century buildings that were an integral part of the town have also been included. The town is laid out along the northeast -southwest Nicholson's Gap Road, later renamed the Leitersburg Turnpike (but called Main St in the village), and recently renamed again, to Leiter St., and the southeast -northwest Leitersburg-Smithsburg Road (Church St.) and Leitersburg- Greencastle Road (Water, and later Antietam Street). This last road, now called Leiter's Mill Road, runs downhill several hundred yards northwest of the square, crossing the Antietam Creek over an 1839 two -arch stone bridge. Buildings are set well back from the intersection, creating a broad paved square. MD Rt 60, built in the early 1950's, removed the pressure of modern traffic from the town, helping to preserve Leitersburg's historic appearance. A system of back alleys serves the rear of the lots. Large trees throughout the town were recently supplemented by a planting project of small flowering street trees to enhance the village. The only section of.Leitersburg that was not developed in the historic period was the southeast side of Main, now Leiter, Street. In 1947, modern bungalows and "Cape Cod" style houses were built on this stretch of seven lots. These houses fit the village pattern and do not detract from the original dwellings. With its location on the busy Nicholson's Gap Road, which ran from Hagerstown, MD, to York, PA, and the cross road which connected Greencastle, PA, with Baltimore, Leitersburg thrived commercially. Many buildings served as hotels and stores. Andrew-Leiter's circa 1812 one-story stone tavern (21400 Leiter St.) was rebuilt as a spacious 2 -story brick structure in the 1830's. Ground's Store (21 500 Leitersburg- Smithsburg Road) was built as an impressive two- story 6 -bay -long brick building whose facade was laid in a distinctive diapered, or diamond, pattern, unique in this region. Burkhart's Hotel (21324 Leiter St.) was built in stone and log, Samuel Lyday's hotel (21 536 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Road) was built in brick, and Lahm's Hotel (21413 Leiter St.) was constructed in log with one stone end wall.

The houses that were built for these working-class residents were primarily of practical log construction. These houses were intended to be covered and protected from the elements with clapboarding, but they were often whitewashed as a temporary measure until finances allowed for proper siding. They ranged in size from one-story two -room cabins (21 319 Leiter St.) to two- story Georgian -plan buildings extended by additions (2141 3 Leiter St.). Even the smallest structure was later enlarged with additions or raised in height. Every building stood on a stone foundation, usually with a cellar, and was heated by an exterior stone chimney (21412 & 21413 Leiter St.) or an interior brick chimney. As the town prospered several homes of more expensive stone or brick construction appeared. Dr. James Johnson's home at 21428 Leiter St. is a two-story stone house with a brick addition. The 1 846 brick Leiter House at 21 31 8 Leiter St. is the single representative of high - style Greek Revival interior detailing in the village. Although many of the ancillary buildings to these homes have disappeared, examples of each type of outbuilding are extant in the Leitersburg Historic District. Modern sheds that have replaced their historical counterparts occupy similar locations on the lots and serve comparable functions. Mid 1 9'" through early 20'" century buildings were more often constructed in brick or frame construction. Victorian details such as bay windows and jigsaws porch trim proliferated. Several examples of the early 20'" century Foursquare style represent the last significant building period in town. The 1926 centennial addition to St. Paul's Lutheran Church provides an end point to Leitersburg's architectural development. Several original sections of sidewalk are paved with large flat slabs of limestone. Stone walls, dry -laid along alleys and finished with crenellated caps when bordering yards, are found throughout the village. With the exception of the Leitersburg Hotel, commercial structures in Leitersburg have been adapted for residential use. Although their use has changed they have been maintained and except for modern claddings these buildings survive in their original form.

Lot #1 : 21400 Leiter St. Contributing:2 Leitersburg Hotel Non-contr.: 0 Circa 1 81 2 and circa 1 835 Founder Andrew Leiter's one-story stone tavern stood on this site. It was later rebuilt in its present two-story brick form running parallel to Leiter St. The deep stone cellar under the west end of the building is almost certainly a remnant of the original structure. The six -bay -long south facade is laid in Flemish bond. The other sides are laid in 5:1 common bond. Several of the tavern's numerous doors have been blocked up over the years: two on the west end, one on the east end, and the former main entrance in the third bay from the west on the facade. The entrance is currently in the facade's westernmost bay. Original brick windowheads feature long narrow bricks standing four courses tall. 2/2 windows light the building. Elaborate brackets with drop spindles support the eaves. The roof is covered with asphalt shingles. A porch covers the facade's three easternmost bays. An interior brick chimney appears at either end. The central staircase was removed in the mid -20'" century and an exterior stair built at the east end. The building retains its historic appearance despite these changes. A one-story western brick section used for storage and a brick livery stable at the southeast corner of the lot were demolished in the 1980's. A small timber -framed shed still stands at the northeast end of the lot. This tavern holds the second oldest liquor license in Washington Co. This is a substantial and well -finished early commercial building. 1811: Andrew Leiter 1 81 8: Henry Barnhart 1830: Cross Keys Hotel 1 877:D.S.

Gray brick jack arches accent the windowheads above 2/2 sash, The structure stands two stories tall under a gable roof that parallels Leiter St. A frame addition covers the east end. The main facade is six bays long with doors in the second, fourth, and sixth bays from the west. An entrance into the stone cellar opens from the west end. An interior brick flue appears at either end, The roof is covered with asphalt shingles. A circa 1900 photo shows a small frame building at this site. In 1921 the Leitersburg Grange bought the lot and built this structure with a store on the first floor and a meeting room on the second floor. The store was operated by Charles Lehman and later Arthur and Mary Newcomer, and it also served as a post office during World War II. The building is currently divided into apartments. This is one of the last commercial structures built in the historic period in Leitersburg. 1818: Lot bought by Samuel Houser and John Light 1877: G. W.

The 1 % story house has a three -bay western facade with a central entrance and stair. A porch shelters this side. Dormers appear on this facade while small windows light the half -story at the rear. This aluminum -sided house has 2/2 windows. Standing seam metal covers the gable roof and an interior brick chimney rises at either end. The house stands on a stone cellar. A small modern wood frame shed stands behind the house. A cistern supplies water to the house. This building is a fine example of a workman's cottage. 1 81 8: Lot bought by Samuel Houser and John Light 1877: G. W. Pole Lot #3 (south half): 21414 Leiter's Mill Road Contributing: 1 Circa 181 5 Non-contr.: 1 This small two-story house is set well back from the street, as if a larger front section was planned but never built. The metal -covered gable roof runs perpendicular to the road. Therefore the single bay western gable end faces the street, and the house runs two bays long into the depth of the lot. The first floor is of stone construction, which is exposed on the east end. The house was raised to two full stories in frame construction and covered with German siding, probably in the late 19`" century. The house stands on a partial stone cellar and has a two-story porch covering its south side. Entrances are located on the west end and in the eastern bay of the south side. The windows hold 6/6 sash. Stone foundations for two small additions which were removed in the 1980's stand above ground level at the east end. A small concrete block shed stands east of the house.

A porch shelters the center -entrance west facade and an enclosed porch provides additional space along the east side. Asphalt shingles cover the gable roof. The house stands on a stone cellar. The walls have been covered with aluminum siding and the windows have been replaced with modern aluminum windows. A timber -framed stable stands at the rear of the lot, and a small frame outhouse is located behind the house. Despite alterations by modern materials, this remains a good example of a moderate -sized early log house with outbuildings. The 1877 resident may have been John Gagle, a Civil War veteran. 1815: Lot bought by Jacob Kessinger 1818: Lot bought by Barnhart B. Light 1877: J. H.

Asphalt shingles cover the roof, and the building stands on a stone foundation. The summer kitchen has a slate roof. This structure was built in 1841 as the Leitersburg Methodist Episcopal church. It was constructed by Alexander Hamilton and Henry Smith of Waynesboro, PA. The congregation disbanded before 1877. This building serves as a good example of a small religious structure adapted for residential use. 1841: Methodist Episcopal Church 1877: David Barnhart Lot #59: 21413 Leiter St. Contributing: 3 Circa 1820 Non-contr.: 0 A two-story galleried porch shelters the north front of this two-part log house.,The largest log house in Leitersburg, it originally served as a hotel. The five -bay Georgian facade has central entrances leading to a stair hall on both stories, as well as a door in the westernmost bay of the first floor. An interior brick chimney rises from either gable end.

He was a carpenter and farmer who built this structure and operated it as a hotel in Leitersburg's early days. By 1 877 the hotel was discontinued and this building became a private residence. The log ell of this building is either original or was added shortly after the initial construction. Both parts of the building were designed for its use as a hotel, as indicated by the many doors and porches providing access to various parts of the structure. This building is significant for its construction by a German immigrant, its large size for a log structure, its distinctive stone end wall and chimney, and its early commercial use. 1830: John Lahm 1877: Mrs. Hicks 1898: Mrs. Charles A.

This village played an important role in the settlement and commercial and agricultural development of Washington County and the surrounding region. Leitersburg was founded in 181 5 by Andrew Leiter after the 1 807 Greencastle -Baltimore Road was constructed to intersect the Nicholson's Gap Road on his property. The town developed with many hotels and commercial establishments to serve travelers on the two roads. The town also served as an exchange point between the many mills and distilleries located on the nearby Antietam Creek. The village continued to prosper when nine miles of the Nicholson's Gap Road was rebuilt as the Leitersburg Turnpike in 1847. The Leitersburg Historic District is significant under National Register Criterion C for its variety of historic architecture. The majority of early buildings were of log construction. The 30 extant examples range from small workers' cottages to large houses which served as hotels. Two substantial brick buildings on Leitersburg's central square which operated as a store and a tavern form one of the most distinctive pairs of early 19`h century commercial architecture in the county. Buildings in stone or frame construction, and representatives of Federal, Victorian, and the early 20'" century Foursquare styles are found in the village. Leitersburg's growth stagnated in the early 20`" century when it failed to secure a railroad line, and the town's architecture was further preserved after the building of the MD Rt. 60 bypass in the 1950's. Resource History and Historic Context: The Leitersburg area in northeast Washington County, Maryland, was first settled in 1738. The region was sparsely populated until after the French and Indian War in the early 1760's. This territory was part of Frederick County until the formation of Washington County in 1776. Under both jurisdictions it was part of the Antietam Hundred. Several election districts were created in 1838, and the Leitersburg area was designated Election District No. 9. The boundaries were reduced with the creation of the Ringgold District (No. 14) to the east in 1 860 and the Chewsville District (No. 18) to the southwest in 1872. The Mason-Dixon Line forms the Leitersburg District's boundary to the north. South Mountain rises several miles to the east. English settlers came to this area from eastern Maryland in the mid 1 8" century. The more numerous German inhabitants arrived from Pennsylvania, especially Lancaster County, throughout the late 18`" and early 19'" centuries. These families included the Zieglers, Leiters, Wolfingers, Mentzers, Strites, Bells, Hartles, and Lantzes. George Poe first patented the tract "Well Taught", which included the future site of Leitersburg on the Antietam Creek, in 1749. In 1 762 after the land was resurveyed as "Resurvey •on Poe's Part of Well Taught", Jacob Leiter, a German settler from Lancaster Co., PA, bought, 362 acres. Upon Jacob's death in 1764 his son Jacob Jr. acquired half of the tract. Historian Herbert C. Bell, writing in 1898, considered the house at the western edge of Leitersburg (21314 - Leitersburg Pike) to be the old Leiter homestead, built by Jacob Leiter Sr. and occupied by his son Jacob Jr. from 1 764 until his death in 1814. The old Nicholson's Gap Road was the main route through this region in the late 18`" century. It led from Baltimore, Maryland through what later became Rouzerville, Pennsylvania in LeiNPS Form 10-900-a (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service OMB Approval No. 1024.0018 National Register of Historic Places Leitersburg Historic District Continuation Sheet Name of Property Section 8 Page 3 WA MD County and State the northeast, to Hagerstown 6 miles southwest of the present village of Leitersburg. The road was located on the northwest side of the Antietam Creek. In 1 802 this road was resurveyed and realigned to the southeast side of the creek, which is the present route of the Leiterburg Pike and Leiter St. in the town. In 1 807 a new public road was laid out from what is now Smithsburg, four miles to the southeast, to Greencastle, Pennsylvania, nine miles to the northwest. It was the Leiter family's good fortune that these two roads intersected on their Well Taught tract. Blacksmith Andrew Leiter bought the crossroads from his father in 1811. He built a stone tavern at the northeast corner by at least 1 81 2, and laid out the public square and 53 town lots in 1 81 5. He also built a two-story stone house on Lot #35 (21 324 Leiter St.) which soon thereafter was operated by Christopher Burkhart as a hotel. Although the town prospered and about 30 lots were sold, Leiter was overextended financially and he died insolvent in 1 818. Sawmills and gristmills were established along the Antietam Creek as well as on the Little Antietam Creek, less than a mile south of the village site, as early as 1765. These facilities took advantage of the extensive supply of timber as well as the increasing harvest of grain from nearby farms. Distilleries also used these resources, providing farmers with a marketable export. As Herbert C. Bell states, "In proportion to its bulk whiskey was many times more valuable than flour, and as transportation was expensive and laborious it is not surprising that a large part of the cereal product of the District found its way to market through the still." Tanneries and hemp mills also proliferated. With improved roads on which to transport these goods, commerce grew dramatically in the early 19'" century. Leitersburg thrived between 1815 and 1830, the year for which author Bell provides a portrait of the village. Fletcher and Stonebraker's general store (21 500 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd.) stood opposite Leiter's original tavern, now operated as the Cross Keys Hotel. The store not only sold goods, but accepted local products in payment in a bartering system. The store also served as a hotel, as did the buildings owned by John Lahm (21413 Leiter St.), the aforementioned Christopher Burkhart, and slightly later, Samuel Lyday (21 536 Leitersburg- Smithsburg Rd.). Blacksmiths and wagonmakers occupied adjoining properties to provide service to the freighting trade: for example, George Poe and Henry Gagle (the old Leiter homestead, 21314 Leitersburg Pike), and John Beckman, later Wilfred L. Flory (Lot # 42); and Jacob Martz, later Upton Bell (Lot # 43, 21 511 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd.). Small to moderate sized log buildings housed workmen occupied as tailors, shoemakers, weavers, tinsmiths, distillers, coopers, and carpenters. A teacher, undertaker, and doctor also lived in the village. As Leitersburg prospered throughout the 19`" century, several institutions were established. Although small country churches served the area from its earliest settlement, the first substantial religious edifice was St. Paul's Lutheran Church, built in the center of town in 1826. This building still dominates the village skyline. Later churches, the 1841 Methodist Episcopal Church (21 31 2 Leiter St.) and the 1 878 St. James Reformed Church (2131 3 Leiter St.), were adapted for residential and community use, respectively, when their congregations disbanded. Small schools were located throughout the district. The 1914 Leitersburg School was in operation until about 1960, and it still serves for community functions. Private clubs and lodges were established in the mid -19`" century. The Red Men met at Virgil Miller's Confectionary (21 501 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd.) and on this same lot (#40) the Golden Rod Council, No. 42, Junior Order United American Mechanics built their own meeting hall in 1897. Further transportation improvements included the building of a stone -arched bridge on the Leitersburg-Greencastle Road in 1839. In 1 831 a road was constructed from Leitersburg to the LeiNP5 Form 10-900-a ` OMB Approval No. 1024-0018 (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Leitersburg Historic District Name of Property Continuation Sheet WA MD Section 8 Page 4 County and State State line, where It met the new road leading to Waynesboro. This road and the old Nicholson's Gap Road from Leitersburg to Hagerstown was rebuilt as the Hagerstown -Waynesboro Turnpike, popularly known as the Leitersburg Pike, in 1847. Leitersburg's populace included Revolutionary War and War of 1812 veterans in the early days of the town. The Civil War affected the village not only through its young men's service as soldiers, but also through the passage of Confederate troops through the town, especially after the Battle of Gettysburg. Some residents moved their horses and livestock to Pennsylvania to prevent their expropriation by the enemy. In the early 20`" century Leitersburg honored soldiers from World War I with a memorial on the square. As opportunities were limited even in a commercially successful village like Leitersburg, some residents moved westward and became famous through their enterprise. Most notably Henry Yesler became a founder of Seattle, Washington in the 18S0's, and Levi Z. Leiter was a founder of Marshall Field's Department Store in Chicago in the 1860's. They were both nationally known businessmen and millionaires. Leiter's daughter Mary, as wife of Lord Curzon, became Vicereine of India at the turn of the century and was one of the most famous women in the world. In 1 853 Leitersburg was incorporated as a municipality. Under this government, "the streets were improved, the sidewalks were curbed and paved..." (Bell), but the community sustained little interest, and within a few years the town government lapsed. Bell cites George C. Zeigler's informal enumeration of Leitersburg's population totaling 219 in 1829, 298 in 1850, 335 in 1870, and 308 in 1880. Businesses continued to prosper through the late 1800's, but as railroad lines were routed through other towns, Leitersburg lost its original transportation advantage and stagnated in the 20`" century. When the Leitersburg Pike was rebuilt yet again as a bypass around the town in the early 1950's, many businesses closed. A small store and deli continued to operate in Ground's Store until the mid -1 990's. The Leitersburg Hotel, the town's founding establishment, has outlasted all the other commercial enterprises to become the last remaining business in the Leitersburg Historic District. The historical character of the town was preserved, however, by the reduction of modern commercial pressure due to the Leitersburg Pike bypass. Architectural Significance Leitersburg is a well-preserved early 19" century village. The expansive paved square with buildings set far back at the corners accommadated traffic flow at the intersection and, expanded parking space for large wagons. This distinctive feature is found in few other villages, and it indicates that careful and optimistic planning went into the layout of the town. Sections of stone wall and stone or brick sidewalks also contribute to the historic streetscape. Few original buildings have been removed from the Leitersburg Historic District, and areas of infill are not obtrusive. Although many buildings have been covered with modern materials, nearly all retain their original fenestration patterns and a great number of homes exhibit original details such as window framing and sash. Leitersburg's collection of early 19" century commercial buildings is especially significant. The Leitersburg Hotel, Ground's Store, and Lahm's. Lyday's, and Burkhart's hotels show a great range of commercial structures built in log, stone, and brick between 1815 and about 1835. Original features such as the network of doors and porches demonstrate the circulation patterns in the hotels. Later 19`" century buildings such as Virgil Miller's Confectionery and the general store/bank at 21328 Leiter St. continued the commercial tradition. LeiNPS Form 10-900-a (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section 8 Page 5 OMB Approval No. 1024-0018 Leitersburg Historic District Name of Property WA MD County and State The aforementioned examples of religious, educational, and social institutions represent many styles and form a network through the town, The stone arched bridge and World War I Memorial are two structures that add another dimension to the village. About 35 vernacular log buildings are extant in the Leitersburg Historic District. The log shell is a versatile box that accommodates numerous modifications such as raising in height, changing of decorative elements such as siding and trim, and enlargement by additions, while retaining its sturdy structure and pleasing proportions. These houses range in size from small workers' cottages, such as the row of four homes on Leiter's Mill Road, and the Toll House, to moderate -sized two-story homes such as 21412 and 21416 Leiter St and 21 512 Leitersburg- Smithsburg Rd., to large structures used as inns such as Lahm's Hotel and 21 502 Leitersburg- Smithsburg Rd. The smaller homes have a simple two or three room floor plan with a boxed tightwinder stair. The larger inns were designed in the Georgian plan with an elegant central stair flanked by pairs of parlors. Throughout Leitersburg's history homes were expanded by enclosure of a rear porch or by the construction of additions. Where lot frontage allowed, houses were expanded with lateral sections such as 21 516 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. and 21 31 7, 21412, and 21428 Leiter St. Many structures were extended deeper into the lot, such as 21416, 21606, 21616, and 21319 Leiter St. Single -story log homes were later raised to a full two stories in height, including 21 504 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. and 21420 and, in modern times, 21418 Leiter St. The Federal Period is represented in the Leitersburg Historic District by three brick buildings on the square: The Leitersburg Hotel, Ground's Store, and Peter Middlekauff's residence, 21 330 Leiter St. The Flemish bond masonry and tall jack -arched windowheads are typical of the period. Homes built with a Federal -influenced side hall, double parlor plan include the aforementioned Peter Middlekauff residence, 21412 Leiter St., and 21512 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. The 1 846 Joseph Leiter House at 21318 Leiter St. was built with a Federal side -hall plan, but its corner -block interior trim and other woodwork reflects the Greek Revival style. The residence at 21 309 Leiter St. stands as the best representative of Victorian architecture in the Leitersburg Historic District. Its distinctive tower and "gingerbread" trim exemplify this style. Other buildings were "Victorianized " with bay windows (21412 and 21 324 Leiter St.) and elaborate porch trim and large windows with beveled or etched glass (21 526 and 21523 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd.) The log house at 21543 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. was extended and finished in a well -detailed Victorian manner, and the stone Burkhart's Hotel (21324 Leiter St.) received a complete Victorian remodeling. Early 20'century Foursquare houses exhibit fine period detail in their masonry and interior and exterior trim. The brick home at 21 506 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. and the stone -faced residence at 21 385 Leiter's Mill Rd. are two well -detailed, well-preserved examples of this last significant building period in Leitersburg's history. Examples of various types of outbuildings are found throughout the Leitersburg Historic District. The brick smokehouse at 21 330 Leiter St. and the summer kitchen at 21428 Leiter St. are typical auxiliary structures. About a dozen outhouses, some still in use in recent years, are extant in the village. Without a public water (or sewer) system, cisterns store water for many homes. 21 536 and 21 543 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd. and 21 307 Leitersburg Pike each display a fine collection of outbuildings. Two farms with good examples of bank barns (21 536 Leitersburg-Smithsburg Rd., and 21531/21431 Ringgold St.) stand at the edge of town, marking the transition to rural land.

Although the builders of vernacular structures are usually anonymous, thanks to Herbert C. Bell several carpenters in Leitersburg have been identified. Joseph Leiter may have built 21512, 21 517, 21519, and 21 521 Leiter St., and he certainly built the grand Leiter House. Builder David Barnhart probably remodeled his own house, originally Burkhart's Hotel, and Samuel Leiter built 21307 Leitersburg Pike. George, Lewis, and Frederick Ziegler, Samuel Dayhoff, and William L. Shiess were also carpenters known to have worked in Leitersburg. The Leitersburg Historic District exhibits a comprehensive variety of vernacular buildings as well as examples of the Georgian, Federal, Greek Revival, Victorian, and Foursquare styles. Leitersburg is a significantly intact early 1 9'" century rural Washington County village.

Description Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD The Ringgold Historic District is a primarily residential historic district of forty-three acres located in the unincorporated village of Ringgold in the northwestern quadrant of Election District No. 14 (the Ringgold District), in rural northern Washington County, Maryland, approximately twelve miles northeast of the county seat of Hagers- town and less than one-half mile south of the Mason-Dixon Line and the Franklin County, Pennsylvania border. The district includes portions of Barkdoll Street (Maryland Route 847), Midvale Street, and Misty Meadow Road. The Ringgold District contains a total of 46 resources, 42 of which (90%) contribute to the character of the district and 4 (10%) are non-contributing. Non-contributing resources are buildings erected outside the c. 1825-c. 1920 Period of Significance of the district and others, the extent of whose alteration has resulted in a loss of historic architectural integrity and their classification as non-contributing resources. All of the properties in the district are buildings except for the Springfield Cemetery (Resource No. 31), which is a contributing site within the context of the nomination. Approximately seventy-five percent of the resources in the district pre -date 1900, approximately fifteen percent of the lesources were constructed between 1900 and the end of the Period of Significance c. 1920, and the remaining approxi- mately ten percent are of modem construction and are non-contributing to the character of the district. The predomi- nant character of the district is that of a rural western Maryland hamlet located atop a hill overlooking a spacious valley and consisting primarily of a single linear thoroughfare. The architecture of the Ringgold Historic District consists principally of modest vernacular residences of two stories in height, located on either side of Barkdoll Street and on parts of Midvale Street and MistyMeadow Road.' A relatively small number of more pretentious homes represent a higher degree of sophistication than is seen in most of the architectural resources of the district. The vast majority of the districes architecture is of wood construction. Most of the homes retain front porches of varying scales and forms along with associated domestic outbuildings including sheds and garages. Larger dependencies are included in the resource count, while smaller outbuildings (sheds, small automobile garages, etc.) are treated as low -scale landscape features and are not represented in the count. The district retains integrity in each of its seven qualities: location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and association. The building lots of the Ringgold Historic District are irregular in plan, and reflect the patterns of traditional, unplanned, and unregulated subdivision of land generations prior to the onset of uniform formal subdivision require - (Alterations to Maryland Route 64 include a large cut and the bypassing of much of Ringgold, which left a portion of the community south of Route 64, including the District 14 School, a Colonial Revival -style brick school building, which appears to be minimally altered but is outside the district, separated by the expanse of the Route 64 cut. The school appears to meet National Register eligibility requirements as an individual property under Criteria A and C. NPS Form 10-e00a 0MB Approval No. 1024-0018 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service rational Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD Section Number 7 Page 2 ments. The topography rises considerably from Route 418 (which bypasses the district) to Barddoll Road, which is the principal north -south thoroughfare in the district. Property setback lines are irregular throughout the district and landscaping includes lawns both large and small. The buildings in the district are rectilinear in form and generally vary in height between one -and -one-half and two -and -one-half stories. Most buildings are roofed with laterally -oriented gable roofs, clad in standing -seam metal or in asphalt shingles. Some historic chimneys have been retained, while others have been removed in the course of retrofitting heating systems and replacing roofs. Fenestration is nearly exclusively flat-topped; in several instances, a pointed -arch window suggests design influence from the Gothic Revival style of architecture; for the most part, win- dows are generally sparsely ornamented; some multi -light historic sash has been retained. The majority of the buildings in the district rest on substantial foundations of coursed rock -faced limestone. As noted above, the architectural character of the Ringgold Historic District is primarily vernacular, with most buildings executed without reference to any particular formal building style. Some traditional house types are found in the district, including side -passage single -pile homes and central -passage double -pile houses to which have been appended later additions. Some properties exhibit more design sophistication than others. Among these are 14510, 14321, 14527, and 14537 Barkdoll Road (Resource Nos.13, 24, 31, ands 34, respectively), which are Federal -style houses. The Federal -style homes are of two stories, some with three -bay facades and others with five -bay arrangements. All are of brick construction, and some employ Flemish bond brick treatment while others are of common bond. One Italianate property is in Ringgold; it is a two-story brick building which appears to have been a commercial property which has been converted to residential use. Vernacular adaptations of the Gothic Revival style are located at 14528, 14432, and 14410 Barkdoll Road (Resource Nos. 7, 14, and 18, respectively). The Gothic Revival influence is seen in centered gables on facades and pointed -arched pedimental windows. The Colonial Revival style is represented in a vernacular adaptation seen at 14420 Barkdoll Road (Resource No. 17), which is at two-story wood residence with a centered gable on the facade and a Palladian window in the pediment of the gable. One Bungalow is in the district (14541 Barkdoll Road; Resource No. 35) and an American Foursquare is located at 22901 Midvale Road (Resource No. 22). Near the center of the Ringgold Historic District is the only contributing site, the Springfield Cemetery (Re - ;source No. 31), which lies along a hillside east of Barkdoll Road, Near the foot of this hill immediately inside the district's eastern boundary, is the River Brethren ChurchMeeting House, an 1871 vernacular church building of brick construction, with a laterally -oriented gable roof and five -bay lateral elevations punctuated by flat-topped fenestration NPS Foai 10 a00a OMB Approval No.1024-0018 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service rational Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD Section Number 7 Page 3 with operable exterior shutters. As noted in the introductory paragraph, the Ringgold Historic District retains historic and architectural integ- rity. Although modest in its scale and detailing, the overall character of the district is intact and represents the early growth and maturity of this hamlet throughout its Period of Significance. Very little demolition has occurred and only a very small number of newer buildings —modern residences and garages -have been built within the boundaries of the nominated area. Alterations to buildingswithin the district include the application of non -historic siding and the installation of replacement windows. These alterations are dispersed throughout the district and do not detract signifi- cantly from the ability of the nominated area to reflect its appearance throughout the Period of Significance. Viewed in its entirety, the Ringgold Historic District is an architecturally -cohesive settlement which grew up along Barkdoll Road after the initial 1825 settlement of the community by pioneer Joseph Creager. The nominated urea retains integrity and contains forty modestly -scaled historic residential properties, one historic church, and one contributing site. The following properties lie within the Ringgold Historic District. The numbering corresponds to the district map which was submitted with the nomination documents. All properties are assumed to contribute to the character of the district except those after whose description an "NC" appears; these properties are non-contributing to the character of the district, either because they date from outside the Period of Significance of the district or because their extent of alteration has significantly compromised their individual character with reference to the district. The dates of construction are generally approximate and are based upon physical examination, upon the scant written documenta- tion which exists for the district, and upon oral interviews conducted in the course of the preparation of the National Register documents. 1. 14606 Barkdoll Road 1'/a -story vernacular cottage ofwood construction with a laterally -oriented gable roof and intersecting gabled pavilion entrance projecting at the right side; win- dows flat-topped without notable ornament (c. 1900) 2. 14548 Barkdoll Road two-story vernacular residence of wood construction with laterally -oriented gable roof and gablet on the facade; shiplap siding; two -bay facade; windows 2/2; single -story hip -roofed roof veranda wraps around the facade and side elevation (c. 1900) 3. 14542 Barkdoll Road two-story vernacular residence of brick with a five -bay facade and laterally -ori- ented gable roof of standing seam metal, with interior gable -end chimneys; NPS Form 10-900a 0MB Approval No, 1024-0018 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service °tational Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section Number 7 Page 4 Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD some multi -light sash has been retained, although most historic sash has been replaced; one-story porch on the facade set on a foundation of concrete block; in front of the house is a well with an hand pump, which is a contributing fea- ture within the context of the resource (c. 1830) 4. rear, 14542 Barkdoll Road 1½ -story two -bay automobile garage with gable roof (c. 1920) 5. 14538 Barkdoll Road 1'/2 -story residence of indeterminate age considerably altered with the installa- tion of non -historic siding, with a resultant loss of integrity (c. 1900; NC) 6. 14532 Barkdoll Road two-story vernacular residence of wood frame construction built on a raised foundation with a two -bay facade and the main entrance offset on the right side, suggesting a side -passage interior plan; laterally -oriented gable roof; single -story addition on the right side with modern bay window (c. 1850) 7. 14528 Barkdoll Road two-story Gothic Revival vernacular residence of wood with laterally -oriented gable roof and center gable on facade; three -bay facade with a one-story bay window on the right side; one-story wrap -around veranda; non -historic siding (c. 1880) 8. rear, 14528 Barkdoll Road wood frame dependency of indeterminate age and function 9. rear, 14528 Barkdoll Road wood frame dependency of indeterminate age and function 10. 14524 Barkdoll Road two-story vernacular residence of wood construction with laterally -oriented gable roof; four -bay facade; windows 2/2, flat topped; paired entry doors on the facade; interior gable end chimneys; one-story shed roof porch (c. 1830) 11. rear, 14524 Barkdoll Road two-story dependency of wood construction at rear of main house (c. 1870) 12. 14520 Barkdoll Road two story vernacular residence of wood construction with a laterally oriented - gable roof of standing seam metal; two -bay facade with the main entrance offset on the right, suggesting a side -passage interior plan; non -historic siding (c. 1850) 13. 14510 Barkdoll Road 21/2 -story Federal -style brick residence with a three -bay facade, laterally -oriented gable roof with shed -roofed wall dormers; some 9/6 sash remains; original first - floor entryway with side lights and distinctive six -panel wood door; two-story gallery porch on facade (c. 1830) 14. 14432 Barkdolt Road 21/2 -story Gothic Revival vernacular residence of wood construction with laterally -oriented gable roof and centered gablet on the three -bay facade; cen- NPS Form 10-900a 0MB Approval No. 1024-0018 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service ational Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section Number 7 Page 5 Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD tered entryway with transom and sidelights; extending across the facade is a highly ornamented locally distinctive porch with a square balustrade.

Significance Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD The Ringgold Historic District is significant under National Register Criterion C for architecture, containing a contiguous collection of locally -significant properties which reflect both popular styles of design prevalent in western Maryland from the 1820s through the 1920s and vernacular architecture representative of local building traditions in the area. The majority of properties in the Ringgold Historic District reflects primarily vernacular design in the rural reaches of western Maryland throughout the Period of Significance, which begins in 1825 when pioneer settler John Creager erected a log house in the area (not extant), spans the dates li buildin s (Resource Figure 1 This excerpt from Thomas Taggert's 1859 map illustrates the extent of development of Ringgold at that time, a little more than a quarter -century after the establishment of the settlement.

The district contains locally -distinctive examples of vernacular architecture which, although executed without refer- ence to formal design tenets, nonetheless represent the manifestation of local building traditions in this section of Washington County. The district contains only limited examples of formal styles including the Federal, Gothic Revival, Italianate, Bungalow, Colonial Revival, and AmericanFoursquare. Specific examples of each of these appear in Section 7 of this narrative. The River Brethren Meeting House (Resource No. 29) is the district's only contributing institutional building and is a local manifestation of unadorned, vernacular reli- gious architecture. The Springfield Cemetery (Resource No. 31) is a contributing site within the context of the district and reflects the self-sufficiency ofearlynineteenthcenturywesternMarylandcommu- nities which provided a full range of services -including burial -to their citizens. The Ringgold Historic District clearly retains its his- toric rural character along with the physical integrity necessary to reflect its appearance during its Period of Significance.

Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD Maryland from Pennsylvania. The village was settled by John Creager who erected a log house there in 1825 (not extant).2 The community was first known as Ridge- ville, due to its siting atop a plateau overlooking the valley west of South Mountain. The settlement soon became relatively self-sufficient, including a store operated by C. Hoffman, a doctor's office, a wagon shop, a school and the River Brethren Church. The church (Resource No. 29) is of brick construction, measuring 40' X 65', and was erected in 1871 at a cost of $6,000. Adjoining the church is the Springfield Cemetery (Resource No. 31). Located along a hillside, the cemetery was apparently originally enclosed within an iron fence, only the gateposts of which remain. According to Scharf's 1906 History of Western Maryland, the cemetery was used as a burial ground even before John Creager built the first house in the village in 1825, since the earliest interment was that of Henry Lesher, who died in 1821.' The post office was established here in 1850, at which time the name of the community was changed from Ridgeville to Ringgold, honoring Sam- uel Ringgold (1770-1829). The village's namesake came from Kent, England and built "Fountain Rock" from designs by America's premiere early architect, Benjamin Henry Latrobe. Ringgold owned 17,000 acres in the area, was a leading politician, and served in the state militia. Early citizens of the community, who were recorded in an 1877 county atlas, include Dr. Frank Barkdoll, a local physician who settled there in 1845, Lewis Barkdoll, a blacksmith who arrived in 1841; the village's principal thor- oughfare bears the name of this pioneer family. The community's pioneer educator, Joseph O. Flory, came to the village in 1840.4 Ringgold grew 2Written documentation of Ringgold is sparse. Most historical information comes from two county and regional histories, both of which are cited frilly in the Bibliography. 3Scharf, J. Thomas History of Washington County, Maryland 1882; rpt. Baltimore: Regional Publishing Company, 1968, p. 1292. 4An Illustrated Atlas of Washington County, Maryland Philadelphia: Lake, Grilling, & Co., 1877. United States Department of the Interior National Park Service Jational Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Ringgold Historic District Washington County, MD Section Number 8 Page 3 slowly and except for two churches, the River Brethren and the Church of Christ, the village displayed few trappings of institutional and social growth. Clearly rural in character, the community's commercial endeavors were confined to a wagon shop,ra blacksmith, and the store of C. Hoffman at the intersection of Barkdoll and Midvale Roads. By the 1890s," Ringgold had a population Iof only 199. Very little occurred to alter the community during the twentieth century. A new school for District 14 was built c. 1915; Colonial Revival in design, it is located on Windy Haven Road and was cut off completely from the historic core of the Village with the cut and rerouting of Route 64. A few newer homes were erected and a large addition was placed onto the Church of Christ. A significant change to the community occurred when a new Maryland Route 419 was built and bypassed the village to the south. Throughout its Period of Significance, the village re- mained an unindustrialized and uncommercialized hamlet, a character which it retains at the time of the preparation of this nomination. Viewing Ringgold in the context of other nearby historic districts, this area can be compared and contracted with the districts at Cavetown, Pen Mar and Highfield, in northern Washington County, with more urban districts in Hagerstown, the county seat, and with Fairplay, Tilghmanton, Sharpsburg, and Antietam Village in the southern reaches of the county. Ringgold most closely approximates character of Cavetown, with residential buildings, generally vernacular in character, existing in the setting of a rural hamlet with few embellishments of social maturity. Pen Mar does not possess the significant collection of historic residential architecture which is present in Ringgold, and that of Highfield dates from much later than Ring- gold, during the period when that particular Blue Ridge Mountain resort community was growing early in the twentieth century. Tilghmanton and Fairplay contain vernacular and Federal -style domestic architecture similar to Ringgold. Sharpsburg is defined by a Main Street commercial area and distinct residential neigh- borhoods, all closely associated with the Civil War. The district at Antietam Village developed as an early company town related to an iron furnace and also is associated with a historic context related to the Chesa- peake and Ohio Canal. Ringgold can claim none of these contextual links. The districts in Hagerstown are far more urban in character and include a substantial downtown area, which Ringgold does not possess. Ringgold stands as a locally -distinctive rural, agrarian, non-commercial and unindustrializedwestern-Maryland village contain ng primarily vernacular domestic architecture dating from the 1820s through the 1920s.

JUSTIFICATION I The boundaries of this nomination were selected to include the unincorporated village of Ringgold, including domestic architecture dating from the early decades of the eighteenth century through the early twentieth century, and also including a historic brick church and it associated cemetery. The boundaries were selected in order to include as much of the village as retains integrity of character and which dates from the Period of Significance, and to exclude areas which date from outside the Period of Significance or which have been significantly altered. The boundaries incorporate those properties which reflect the growth and prosperity of the village during its years of initial settlement and maturity.

Lot - Be sure the lot is subdivided, perked, and a plan is drawn showing lot lines setbacks, well location, and septic reserve (if necessary). Check septic reserve area in relation to the house location. The plan may need to be revised. In general, think about any and all additions to your new home and how they will impact the the setback distances and the well/septic areas. Please think of decks, porches, and swimming pools as well. If you are adding a garage, try to keep the garage on the high side of the lot to allow for better drainage around the home and to keep excavation costs at a minimum. 2. Driveway - If you are driving onto a state or township road, other than a subdivision road, you will need a driveway permit. Contact the State Highway Department or your local Township Officer. 3. Utilities - Contact the electric, cable, and telephone companies as soon as you know where the house is going to be located on the lot. They will provide you with important information. Any engineering work that maybe needed, can be performed in advance of the construction of your home. Check to see if there is natural gas available for home heating in your subdivision. 4. Excavation/Foundation - Select a reputable contractor to do this work for you. Be sure you have a copy of your foundation plan, HVAC (ductwork plan), and steel beam plan if your are planning to finish off your basement in the near future. You may want to construct your foundation wall higher to provide the necessary headroom in the basement. 5. Well/Septic/Electric - Select a reputable contractor to do this work for you. You will need to drill a well and install a septic system if your lot is not available with public water and sewer. Foremost provides the electrical panel box and breakers. You will need an electrician to mount the panel box and to install a meter to the outside of the house/foundation. Typically, after your electrician mounts these items and connects all the electrical wires within the box, you may call for an inspection. Once the inspection has passed, you can call the electric company for permanent power. 6. House - Please review all the information and plans from Foremost, Keep on hand on -site work schedule to be aware of procedure for the on -site work to be done by Foremost once the home is completed.
