Moments (North East, Pennsylvania)

United States of America -- Pennsylvania -- Erie -- North East

Scope and Contents:

The folder includes worksheets, site plans, additional images and a bibliography.

General:

This property is perched on a plateau at 60 feet above a creek which feeds onto nearby Lake Erie. When the current owners purchased the property in 1998 the landscaping began with removal of formal plantings and replacing with shrubs like serviceberry, oak leaf hydrangea and spirea. To maintain a difficult terrain, flowers were planted on the steep hill about 3 feet from the house; and foundation stones were repurposed in a variety of shapes and sizes and placed on the hill for planting. A few trees were cut down over the years to provide more sun. One of the trees remained and an artist was commissioned to create a face/hand sculpture standing about 10 feet tall. A fence was built from locust posts which provides a backdrop for flowering plants such as climbing roses, gooseneck loosestrife, sunflowers, hydrangea, Scotch broom, and coneflowers.

The "island" in the backyard has evolved to include garden art of flowers made from fire nozzles, copper and aluminum which acts as a trellis for clematis, and home to a tall hydrangea. The northwest side of the property is bordered by the steep cliff to the creek. A six-foot edge of hostas and myrtle serves as a safety barrier. As one enters the creek side of the house, spirea hide the view of the creek until one passes thru pillars and is awed by the view. A planting of rugosa roses with an antique fence as a backdrop forms the setting for the parking area of the driveway. Beyond, a "moon gate" made out of steel welcomes one to a path in the woods where a suspension bridge provides a connection to a mile walk to nearby waterfalls.

Persons associated with the garden include members of the Jenks Family (former owners, until 1977); Carl and Mary Jane Mielke (former owners, until 1997); Brian Sprague (sculptor).

United States of America -- Virginia -- Orange County -- Orange

Scope and Contents:

The folder includes worksheets and photocopies from publications.

General:

The house and garden known as Montebello was started ca. 1740 by Benjamin Cave II, with the garden designed by his wife, Elizabeth Belfield Cave ca. 1760, and constructed by slaves. The colonial garden was laid out in terraces, and included an English kitchen garden and a boxwood garden. The second terrace had a cutting garden of flowers. A boxwood allee leads to the main house. The house was built of red brick, and there are brick walkways and brick walls defining the garden rooms.

In 1987 the 1.093 acre garden was still extant and owned by Mrs. Gray Dunnington. It was not open to the public.

Montebello was a plantation, built by slave labor, with the original land deed given by King George II (of England) to Benjamin Cave (ca. 1684-1762) in 1728, who passed the land on to his son Benjamin II.

Persons associated with the garden include Benjamin Cave II and Elizabeth Belfield Cave (former owners, ca.1740), the Cave family descendants including Mrs. Leslie Gray (7th generation former owner, ca. 1962), and Mrs. Gray Dunnington (former owner, 1987).

Scope and Contents:

Pride at Work was formally founded in June 1994, in New York City, New York during the 25th anniversary of the Stonewall riots. The Gay and Lesbian Labor Activists Network (GALLAN) had been dissatisfied with the labor movment's non-involvement during the debate over the Defense of Marraige Act (DOMA) and looked to form an organization concerned with the interests of LGBT workers. The name for the new organization was taken from a 1990 booklet titled Pride at Work: Organizing for Lesbian and Gay Rights in Unions. Pride at Work affiliated with the AFL-CIO in 1997. Pride at Work seeks to build support and acceptance of LGBT workers in the workplace and labor unions. Pride at Work educates LGBT persons about their rights as workers, organized labor, and trade union solidarity. They encourage and assist LGBT workers in organizing and becoming full participants in the trade union movement. Pride at Work opposes discrimination of any type on the job and in unions.

Date:

1917-1937, undated

Scope and Contents:

This series consist of correspondence, photographs, receipts, a wallet, items from the Legionarios del Trabajo, and other ephemera. The dates of the materials ranges from 1917 to 1937. This series sheds some light on Enrique Andales' journey from the Philippines to the United States and the difficult life an agricultural worker in Northern California in the 1920s. In addition, some of the materials emphasizes Enrique's dedication to his membership at the fraternity, Legionarios del Trabajo. The materials clarify some information about the early life of Enrique through the correspondences in this series. Since the letters are written in Visayan, a language spoken within the southernmost islands of Luzon in the Philippines, it can be assumed that Enrique was born in the southernmost islands of Luzon and was able to speak and write in Visayan. The materials in this series does not identify any information regarding Enrique's birth and death, military service, health information, and naturalization process. The series provides a valuable insight and can be utilized as a primary source to researchers who are interested in the lives of Filipino American agricultural workers during the 1920s.

Biographical / Historical:

Enrique Andales was born on July 18, 1891, in the town of Cardova, Cebu, Philippines.

There are no records indicating the early life of Enrique. Furthermore, it is unclear when he left the Philippines. However, according to a California Arriving Passenger and Crew List, on March 14, 1916, Enrique arrived in the San Francisco, California from Honolulu aboard the SS Matsonia.

On December 15, 1917, during World War I, he dutifully registered for the U.S. draft. According to his draft card, Enrique resided in Stockton, California working as a laborer for the Shima Tract, an island in Sacramento-San Joaquin River where they grew potatoes. By the 1930, according to a 1930's Federal Census, Enrique would work as a farm laborer, specifically on asparagus farms, living with 14 other lodgers that were of Japanese or Filipino ethnicity on Alen Bunn Reyes, Rio Vista, Solano, California. Despite not having formal schooling, he possessed the ability to read and write in English and Visayan, a common language spoken in the southern Philippines such as the Cebu Province.

Enrique was not only dedicated to his work but also active in his community. He was a proud member of the Legionarios del Trabajo, specifically affiliated with the Daguhoy Lodge in the United States. This affiliation showcased his commitment to supporting the rights and welfare of laborers during the time of social and economic change.

Enrique passed away on April 24, 1938, in Stockton, California.

Summary:

The engineering firm that became Lockwood Greene was founded by David Whitman, a mill engineer, in 1832. Amos D. Lockwood, a consultant, succeeded Whitman and entered a partnership with Stephen Greene in 1882. The firm specialized in industrial engineering and construction; they designed and built a wide variety of structures and work environments worldwide over the next century. Lockwood Greene was acquired by CH2M HILL in December, 2003. Before its acquisition by CH2MHILL it was reportedly the oldest industrial engineering, construction, and professional services firm in the United States.

Scope and Contents:

The Lockwood Greene records are a comprehensive range of documents related to the appraisal, building, construction, design, evaluation, and engineering of facilities for a variety of clients. The material covers the entire period of industrialization of the United States, and, provides a thorough record of the textile industry, both in New England and the South. Some of the textile mills are documented with unusual completeness, showing water and steam power layouts, factory village plans, and landscaping schedules. A broad range of other building typologies is also covered, including projects with public or retail functions, such as early automobile showrooms, hospitals, apartments and private dwellings, churches, and schools.

In-depth study of the company's earliest history is hampered by a scarcity of records, many of which were lost in the great fire that destroyed Boston's city center in 1872. Nevertheless, graphic and textual evidence does exist within the collection that illuminates these early projects, in addition to the fabric of surviving buildings. The Lockwood Greene records document several commissions that the firm would return to again and again over the course of many decades as clients requested plant additions, upgrades to mechanical and operating systems, and other substantive changes. Researchers are encouraged to examine the blueprints, elevations, and plans for these later additions in order to find illustrations of the firm's earlier interventions at the site. In addition to drawings, other visual evidence for nineteenth-century projects can be found in the company's extensive photo files, which often document structures for which drawings do not exist.

The Lockwood Greene records contain an abundance of graphic and textual evidence for structures designed after 1910 until the 1930s. After this period, visual documentation becomes much more limited. This is partially due to the evolution of drafting tools and information management technologies within the architecture and engineering profession. Lockwood Greene was an early adopter of technological innovations in rendering and data capture, beginning with the introduction of aperture cards and microfilm and extending to the adoption of computer-aided design (CAD) programs. These more modern formats were not part of the acquisition, and, at the time of writing, still reside with the company.

The Lockwood-Greene collection will be of interest to historians of architecture and engineering, as well as those that study the history of business and labor relations. It provides extensive textual and documentary evidence on the evolution and growth of American engineering and the increasing professionalization of the discipline through specialization during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Rich holdings of architectural drawings, photographs, and specifications provide unparalleled resources that trace the evolution of industrial buildings and their typologies; experimentation with building materials and systems, particularly with regards to fireproofing; and the history of textile manufacture in the United States. In addition, there is also rich visual and documentary evidence of the changing relationships between corporations and their employees through photographs, plans, and designs for company towns and mill villages, as well as through corporate records that illustrate the work culture of Lockwood Greene itself. The Lockwood-Greene collection will be of special interest to historic preservationists as the awareness of the significance of industrial and vernacular buildings continues to grow, and detailed design drawings and other visual material will be of especial value for restoration, rehabilitation, and adaptive-reuse projects.

Biographical / Historical:

Lockwood Greene, one of the nation's oldest engineering firms, traces it roots to 1832, when Rhode Island native David Whitman began a machinery repair service. Riding the wave of the early industrial revolution in textile manufacturing, Whitman added mill design services to his repertoire, which formed the backbone of a flourishing consulting business for the rest of the century. Whitman was one of the first itinerant mill engineers or "doctors" that traveled throughout New England advising various industrialists on the placement, design, and construction of their factories and the layout of the complicated system of machinery and shafting that they contained. His largest commission was the design of the Bates Manufacturing Company complex in Lewiston, Maine, which was incorporated in 1850 and soon became one of the largest textile producers in New England.

Upon Whitman's death in 1858, his unfinished work was assumed by Amos D. Lockwood, a prominent mill agent and astute businessman who had built a name for himself in Connecticut and Rhode Island. The successful completion of the projects at Lewiston brought enough additional demand for Lockwood's services to prompt him to relocate to Boston, where he formally opened an independent consulting office with partner John W. Danielson in 1871. For the next ten years, A.D. Lockwood & Company was involved in a least eight major mill design projects, half of which were for new construction. One of these projects, the design and construction of the Piedmont Manufacturing Company in Greenville (now Piedmont), South Carolina was especially significant and is considered to be a prototype for the Southern textile industry.

In 1882, Lockwood established a new business, Lockwood, Greene and Company, with Stephen Greene, a professionally-trained civil engineer who had joined the firm in 1879. As the firm grew, it expanded its scope as consultants supplying all of the necessary architectural and engineering services a prospective owner needed to initiate, equip, and run a complete plant. Acting as the owners' representative, the company supervised construction and installation but did not directly act as builders or contractors. Lockwood

Greene's objective expertise was legendary and made it a leader in this emergent field. As Samuel B. Lincoln explains in his history of the company:

"The new firm's knowledge and experience in the textile industry enabled it to analyze samples of cloth and, from such samples, to provide everything necessary for a completed plant to make such goods in any desired quantity. It did not at any time act as selling agents for machinery or equipment, neither did it accept commissions or rebates from suppliers: by this policy it maintained a position as impartial and independent engineer." (pages 105-107)

Greene became president of the company upon Lockwood's death in 1884. Under his leadership, the company expanded into additional industries and designed an array of other industrial building types that would prefigure the diversity of later work. In 1893, the company revolutionized American industry by designing and constructing the first factory whose operating power was provided entirely over electric wires from a remote power plant, rather than relying upon a water source or a stockpiled fuel supply. The Columbia Mills project created a great deal of publicity for the firm and was a signal to other manufacturers that there were viable alternatives to the use of steam power.

As changing economic conditions led Lockwood Greene to move away from its traditional reliance upon the textile manufacturing industry, it was very successful at soliciting projects for a wide variety of structures, from newspaper plants and automotive factories to convention halls and schools. After 1900, Lockwood Greene expanded its operations and opened branch offices in other cities, including Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Detroit, Atlanta, and Charlotte. In 1915, Edwin F. Greene, president and son of Stephen Greene, reorganized the firm as Lockwood, Greene & Company, Incorporated This new entity served as the parent company and controlled three subsidiaries: one to own and operate cotton mills that Greene had acquired; one to manage other companies' textile mills; and one to provide engineering services.

Lockwood Greene expanded its operations tremendously as the textile industry boomed under wartime demand and in the years following. The severe textile depression from 1923 to 1928 caused the collapse of this structure, however, as Lockwood Greene continued to suffer deep losses in the textile mills that it owned. The parent company was dissolved in 1928 and the engineering subsidiary, which had remained profitable, was salvaged as Lockwood Greene Engineers, Incorporated.

After a rocky start with the onset of the Depression, the company began to prosper during the Second World War and its growth continued steadily throughout the next several decades. In the late 1960s, as a result of declining business, the company's headquarters was transferred from Boston to Spartanburg, South Carolina. In 1981, Phillipp Holtzman USA, a subsidiary of Phillipp Holtzman AG of Frankfurt, Germany, acquired a majority interest in Lockwood Greene. In 2003, CH2M Hill, a global provider of engineering, construction, and operations services based in Denver, Colorado, acquired the company.

From its beginnings under David Whitman, Lockwood Greene has become one of the most diversified engineering firms in the United States. The firm is best known as a designer of industrial and institutional buildings, but the company has become a leader in many additional areas in recent years. Lockwood Greene dominates the market in the design and production of the germ- and dust-free "clean room" facilities required by the pharmaceutical industry and micro-electronics manufacturers. The company has also developed expertise in designing integrated security and networking systems for industrial plants, international port facilities, and military installations worldwide.
