In this photo: The Miller Barn Restoration Project wrapped up last week. The HistoriCorps team did an outstanding job. We thank the team tremendously for helping us to preserve America's heritage.
September 8 through October 4, 2019, HistoriCorps, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to engaging volunteers in the rehabilitation of historic structures on publicly accessible lands, in partnership with the National Elk Refuge, worked to restore the 121 year old Historic Miller Barn.
The Historic Miller Barn on the National Elk Refuge, represents a range of historic events significant to the development of the National Elk Refuge and Jackson, WY. The 30-by-40 foot barn was built in 1898 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The barn is part of the Historic Miller Ranch on the National Elk Refuge. The site referred to as the Historic Miller Ranch includes the original log home or Miller House, the Miller Barn, and a one-room log building that was once used as the original office for what later became Teton National Forest, known currently as Bridger-Teton National Forest.
HistoriCorps is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that provides volunteers of all skill levels with a hands-on experience preserving historic structures on public lands across America. Volunteers work with HistoriCorps field staff to learn preservation skills and put those skills to work saving historic places that have fallen into disrepair. HistoriCorps works to ensure America’s cultural and historical resources exist for generations to come.

History
Restoration House was originally two medieval buildings (1454 and 1502–22) with a space between.
They were joined together in 1640-1660 (tree ring data from roof) by inserting a third building between the two, to create a larger house.
The first owner of the completed house was Henry Clerke, a lawyer and Rochester MP. Clerke caused further works in 1670, the refacing of the entrance facade, the Great Staircase and other internal works.
The house was then bought by William Bockenham. It was owned by Stephen T. Aveling in the late 19th century, and he wrote a history of the house which was published in Vol. 15 of "Archaeologia Cantiana".
The house was purchased for £270,000[7] by the English entertainer Rod Hull, in 1986, to save it from being turned into a car park; and he then spent another £500,000 restoring it.
It was taken by the Receiver in 1994 to cover an unpaid tax bill.
The current owners over the past decade have uncovered decoration schemes from the mid 17th century, which reveal the fashionable taste of the period, much influenced by the fashions on the continent.
Charles Dickens
According to the biographer John Forster, the novelist Charles Dickens, who lived nearby, used Restoration House as a model for Miss Havisham's Satis House in Great Expectations; the name "Satis House" belongs to the house where Rochester MP, Sir Richard Watts, entertained Queen Elizabeth I - it is now the administrative office of King's School, Rochester.
The former Stone Police Station on Radford Street in the town of Stone in Staffordshire.
Opened in 1912 to replace the previous station on Newcastle Street, this has recently been renovated to provide the town with new residential dwellings.
Nice to see such care taken over such a development.
The great pyramid of Djozer in Memphis being restored. This is the site of the original Pyramids in Egypt from 2650 BC. The king was seen as the living embodiment of the God Horus.
For most of our time in Egypt there was a heat haze and the sky was generally Grey, so sepia, black & white and split toning seem to be the only options for these photos...
Additional crews have been brought in to support restoration our efforts; we have nearly 500 people in the field working around the clock.

I called this farm restoration because it seems that the windmill has been worked on and the barn has been painted recently.
The backfilling of the MacArthur Ditch is part of the larger Kissimmee River Restoration project. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project will eliminate an artificial drainage feature in the floodplain that was created more than 50 years ago by the MacArthur family to protect their property from flooding.
A small borrow canal resulting from the construction of a levee around this property has grown to almost 3 miles in length and up to 60 feet wide as a result of the reintroduction of flow to the Phase I restoration area in 2001. This dated feature drains the floodplain quickly while it continues to grow in length and width. If not backfilled, it would decrease the inundation depth and duration of water in the floodplain wetlands and impact the quality of fish and wildlife habitat.
Restoration Hardware opened its opulent Gold Coast outlet at 1300 N. Dearborn Pkwy. in October 2015. The former Three Arts Club was completed in 1914. The 70,000 square-foot stores features a roof-top deck, restaurant, bar and coffee bar.
