This is where he and his wife Grace along with their six children would live happily for many years, gradually adding on to the house to accommodate their large family. After the deaths of Grace and Jonathan the house was passed down to succeeding generations that continued to add on to the family home, turning it into the massive structure that it is today. Today, it never lacks in paranormal activity.

The windows on the front and sides of the building differ from those in back. The similarities among all of the windows is that they feature glass panes separated by muntins, have sills, and are without lintels. The windows on the front side of the building have a hinged lower section, feature twelve panes of glass, and the windows have security bars on the basement floor. The windows on the back are slim, with fourteen panes of glass each. Characteristics that the building share with the Mediterranean revival style are its semicircular arched entry, red tiled roof, wrought iron balustrades on its twinned, L-shaped staircases that lead to the first floor, and small paned windows.(PDF) The building features a central, gabled pavilion and the roman arching that frames the double-door main entrance features a protruding keystone, and is flanked on both sides by original light fixtures(PDF). Above the front entrance to the first floor of the building is a half-circle window with five panes of clear glass framed in wood. Two unique stones can be found on the building; one on the northeast corner noting the building as the “Sparks Branch Washoe County Library”, and the other on the southeastern corner baring the image of a Freemason square and compass.

Incorporating remnants of the previous (Walter Burley Griffen) structure, a simple, practical site response was fundamental. Upon entrance the hand craftsmanship is amazing as a “sense of going downwards” towards the waters edge is emphasised through the sloping ‘wave shaped’ ceiling- a post modern metaphorical gesture. Raised to the trusses this effect add’s virtue and admission of light, balanced in contrast with the stepped up kitchen for views over living area’s. An emphasis is placed on passive solar, interplay between in and out and what some call “fat free” spatial organisation. Looking down the hall the angularity “veranda like plan” faces north supplying privacy and sublime views of endless water and headland from every ‘served’ room, with only ‘service’ rooms positioned in the south (diagram

The new buildings are a new architectural layer on the site, designed to emphasize the original 1850s constructions. The new building design developed from the symmetry of the original site although rather than following the centralized geometrical structures used in the 1850s, a new asymmetry was created based on the position of the northern entry to the Macquarie street Mint offices. These new structures are clearly distinguished from the older materials, yet they complement the geometric arrangements of the older, existing

It was a long but narrow building, with multiple sections in the inside. There's plenty of petrified people every where, coming in full body, top torso, and other bits. The petrified people, we can’t confirm if its actual petrified flesh or plastic, either way it's still creepy. Next to those chambers there a section with multiple rooms that represent auditoriums, with plenty of chairs and a tattered cloth in front. Then down further in the black market there's a section for speculated footwear.For being old I will admit they’re stylish, but they don’t beat my specialized boots. From that this excavation, was very productive, and we obtained various results. After those days we think we got a deeper understanding of how people lived back in the early

Established in1889 by Lloyd Taylor and J. Woods, the marble house is in North Terrace and is one of the state’s heritage spots. It is an example of renaissance architecture with its symmetrical carved round pillars. Several pillars emerge from the floor and support the giant porch. The broad marble stairs, leading to the pillars, not only emphasises the front of the monument but also balances the aesthetics from all corners.
