Stick/Eastlake

[edit]

I'm not one to argue with the NRHP, but this shows very few Stick/Eastlake traits currently! Katr67 (talk) 23:10, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This view shows more stick ornamentation, but I'm curious if at some point the building was fancier? Katr67 (talk) 00:26, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm clueless about architectural details. I wouldn't know a stick from a Stick or an Eastlake from a Westlake. Feel free to improve upon it. Finetooth (talk) 00:56, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm working to improve my understanding of architecture, but my progress is more like a crawl than a dash. The state site says, "Stick" for primary style and "Queen Anne" for secondary style. I'll change the article to say that, citing the state. On the matter of sources, you are right about the commercial site, and I thank you for catching that. It's strangely difficult to get all of the information for the infobox from a non-commercial source. The state site, for example, doesn't seem to list the NRHP reference number. Have you got any better methods? I'd like to do some more NRHP buildings, mostly in Oregon. Finetooth (talk) 19:45, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The under-construction NPS search engine now provides at least the NRHP ref number, and I swapped out the citations accordingly. Bye-bye dot-com. Finetooth (talk) 18:18, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Voted off the wiki. Buh-bye. In reference to the above, I've been reading A Field Guide to American Houses and I'll grudingly admit this is sorta Stickish after all. It's a great reference for learning all this stuff. As far as a belated reply to NRHP stuff in Oregon, have you seen the comprehensive state NRHP list? [1] I see it was just updated in October.

I used an earlier version of the state list for Hayden Bridge in September, but I hadn't seen the new list. It's quite helpful in the absence of a complete, easily accessible NPS list. I'll add the Field Guide to my reading list; thanks for the tip. Finetooth (talk) 20:50, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I checked again today, and the NPS search engine was again on sick leave. Grrr! I have replaced the citation to it with a cite to the OPRD list. Should have done it yesterday, but I was busy and had a smidgen of faith left in the NPS system. All gone. Finetooth (talk) 20:57, 14 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
