Boston National Historical Park (NHP) is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) under Criteria A, B, C, and D . Largely tied together by the 2.5-mile-long path known as the Freedom Trail, the Boston NHP (the District) comprises a collection of iconic, nationally significant resources that are associated with seminal events in the founding and organization of the United States and with later trends that led to their commemoration and preservation. The District derives its primary significance under Criterion A at the national level in the area of Military History and Politics/Government as the site of the opening campaigns of the Revolutionary War during the Siege of Boston (1775-1776) and pivotal events associated with the founding and growth of the new country, including the establishment of the United States Navy. The District also meets Criterion A at the national level in the areas of Commemoration and Conservation for its association with the development of nationalistic movements that placed value on distinctly American history and architecture. Under Criterion B, the District possesses national significance for its associations with Paul Revere (1734-1818), a prominent political figure whose actions during the Revolutionary War helped the American colonies to gain independence from Great Britain. The District meets Criterion C at the national level in the areas of Architecture and Engineering for its influential representation of monumental architecture in the United States, including key national examples of Colonial, Georgian, and Naval design completed by notable architects. The Bunker Hill Monument was among the first large-scale architectural monuments completed in the country and was the first to be designed in the obelisk form that was later adopted for the Washington Monument in Washington, DC, and many other national monuments. The Dorchester Heights Monument is a later example of a Colonial Revival monumental design that represents the work of the nationally prominent architectural firm of Peabody and Steams. The district is also eligible under Criterion Cat the national level in the area of Landscape Architecture for the Charlestown Navy Yard's landscape which retains its early to mid-nineteenth century landscape elements, including those associated with the 1828 Master Plan designed by the prominent civil engineer Loammi Baldwin. The Bunker Hill Monument landscape is a significant example of the work of noted landscape architect Arthur A. Shurcliff. Another example of Shurcliff work is represented at Old North Church complex, which features a well-preserved early to mid-twentieth-century garden, courtyard, and terrace. The district is also eligible for listing under Criterion D at the national level for its demonstrated and potential ability to yield substantive information about the form and function of military fortifications at important Revolutionary War battle sites, and about the infrastructural development of one of the oldest shipbuilding facilities in the United States. The District also is eligible for listing under Criterion D at the local level for its demonstrated and potential ability to yield data about pre-contact period settlement and patterns of environmental change; urban growth and landmaking activities in Boston; municipal waste and water practices in the north End from the seventeenth through nineteenth centuries; and consumption and settlement patterns of military and civilian communities from the seventeenth through nineteenth centuries. The Old North Church and Old South Meeting House meet Criteria Consideration A as historically religious properties that are significant for their architectural distinction, connections to significant people and events of the Revolutionary War, and associations with noted historic preservation efforts of the nineteenth century. The commemorative properties at Bunker Hill and Dorchester Heights meet Criteria Consideration F as prominent components of the Boston NHP landscape that have achieved historical significance for their association with the growing national awareness of and appreciation for the sacrifices made by the Revolutionary War generation during the early to mid-nineteenth century. The period of significance for Boston NHP extends from 1680, the earliest date associated with a historic resource, to 197 4 when federal legislation established the national park. The historic period contains overlapping periods of thematic importance, from the events that instigated the American Revolutionary War through efforts to commemorate and preserve properties associated with the war and the birth of the nation. The significant period for military and political associations begins with the writs of assistance in 1761 and extends through the peak of active use at the Charlestown Navy Yard up to 1974. Other phases of important events include the commemoration of the Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1974; historic preservation from the saving of Old South Meeting House in 1876 to the publication of the Boston National Historic Sites Commission's final report in 1961; Paul Revere's association with the Revere House from 1770 to 1800; and archeology from 1742 to 1814.

Robert and Suzanne Drucker House
Wilmette, Illinois
Listed 9/18/2013
Reference Number: 13000715
The Post World War II Suzanne and Robert Drucker House is locally significant and meets Criterion C for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Designed by Harry Weese for his sister Suzanne, the Drucker House is architecturally significant as an excellent example of a Mid-century Modem house. The house is simple, functional and carefully-detailed, with a design based on geometric relationships not historical precedents. It is distinctly Modem, while incorporating Weese's personal brand of Modernism--a synthesis of International Style, Scandinavian and Midwestern influences. When expanded in 1963, Harry's brother Ben Weese designed an addition compatible in style, scale, materials and detailing with the original design of the house.
