Temple Christian School is a private, Christian secondary school in the ministry of Cornerstone Baptist Temple. The school is located in Dayton, Ohio, and serves approximately 200 students. Temple Christian's mascot is the tiger. Their motto is "A Quality Education in a Christian Environment". When the school was founded in the 1968, the school's president said that he hoped parents would enroll because public schools taught evolution and had "communistic influences" in social studies texts.Some historians have argued that Temple Christian was part of the segregation academy movement. In 1972, the church's pastor argued that school integration was immoral since the Bible taught that black and white people should remain separated. When Dayton public schools were desegregated in the late 1970s, the school's enrollment nearly doubled.Temple Christian School won the National Association of Christian Athletes (NACA) Division II Soccer Championship three years in a row - 1982, 1983 and 1984.

Dayton Fire Department Station No. 16
Dayton Fire Department Station No. 16

The Dayton Fire Department Station No. 16 was a historic fire station on the near east side of Dayton, Ohio, United States. An architectural landmark constructed in the early twentieth century, it was named a historic site seventy years after being built, but it is no longer extant. Built of brick on a brick foundation, the station was covered with an asbestos roof and featured elements of wood and limestone. Most of the building was two-and-a-half stories tall and covered with a hip roof, although aberrations included a polygonal southeastern corner and a tower on the southern side. Three fire doors composed a significant part of the facade. Constructed in 1909, the station was built at a time when Dayton's city government was building numerous fire stations in high architectural styles; Station 16's most prominent details derived from the Neo-Renaissance and Gothic Revival styles. Among these details were the pointed arched doorways, a cornice with extensive bracketing, and elaborately shaped dormer windows; the building's overall plan was an unexceptional rectangle. The identity of its designer is unknown.In 1980, Fire Station 16 was listed on the National Register of Historic Places; it qualified for inclusion because of its distinctive architecture, which surpassed that of virtually every other extant fire station in the city. Despite this designation, the station has since been removed, and a recently constructed house occupies its place.

Huffman Historic District
Huffman Historic District

The Huffman Historic District is a historic section of the Historic Inner East neighborhood in Dayton, Ohio, United States. Formed at the end of the nineteenth century primarily by a wealthy businessman, it has long been home to people of many different occupations and numerous places on the social ladder. After seeing very few changes throughout the twentieth century, it was named a historic site in the 1980s. William P. Huffman was both a banker and a real estate developer; although some of the land in the neighborhood had already been developed before Huffman became involved, he spurred development by arranging for the construction of a street railway on Third Street. The area's early residents occupied numerous places on the socioeconomic spectrum, ranging from laborers to merchants and artisans to executives. Their presence together in the neighborhood can still be seen in the built environment, most of which was built between 1870 and 1890. Several major architectural styles of the late nineteenth century appear in the district, including the Gothic Revival, Italianate, and Queen Anne. Although the district's peak period of growth ended by 1890, construction continued over the next decade, but virtually nothing was built after 1900. Minimal changes since that time have left the neighborhood resembling its appearance of over a century ago, preserving it as an example of late 19th-century developmental patterns.In mid-1982, the Huffman Historic District was officially declared and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying both because of the buildings' well preserved architecture and because of the entire district's connection to William P. Huffman. One of nineteen National Register-listed historic districts in the city, it is located immediately northeast of another, Saint Anne's Hill. The district comprises properties on sixteen streets in eastern Dayton, almost directly to the east of downtown. Its boundaries encompass 85 acres (34 ha), more than ⅛ of a square mile. At the time the district was designated, it comprised 668 buildings, of which 663 were deemed contributing properties and 5 non-contributing; the ratio of contributing to non-contributing is far higher than in most historic districts in the United States, reflective of the lack of construction within the district since 1900.

Samuel N. Brown House
Samuel N. Brown House

The Samuel N. Brown House is a historic residence in southern Dayton, Ohio, United States. Constructed in the 1870s for a prominent industrialist, it has been used for commercial purposes since the 1920s, and it has been named a historic site. Samuel N. Brown, the original resident, was the owner of the Dayton-based firm of S.N. Brown and Company. Founded in 1847, it produced parts for horse-drawn carriages, such as wheel hubs, spokes, and entire wheels. Brown arranged in 1875 for the construction of the house, which was sold to a local hospital in 1920 and operated it until their bankruptcy in 1923. Much of its history has been spent as the location of an antique shop, although for a time in the 2000s it was used by Madisson House, a garment shop.The Brown House rests on a stone foundation and is covered with an asphalt roof; some sections of the walls are weatherboarded. Built in the shape of the letter "T", the house features components such as a tower at the left of the facade, a prominent mansard roof, and a veranda placed around the whole facade. Under the roof, the eaves feature a cornice composed of brackets with frieze. The house is a two-story structure with numerous dormer windows piercing the roof, most of them arched, while the first floor includes tall rectangular windows and some smaller square windows along with arches. Among the smaller details, yet still prominent, is the railing surrounding the top of the tower. Together, these elements produce the appearance of a Second Empire residence.In 1977, the Brown House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying because of its historically significant architecture and because of its connection to Samuel Brown. Another National Register-listed property, the Westbrock Funeral Home, is located across the street.
