Similarly, there are free iOS (varies from iPhone to iPad) and Android (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneDrive, Outlook, OneNote and SharePoint) versions of Office software that are also available for free but with fewer features. It still comes with all the essential Office apps that are suitable for most users’ needs: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. If a district is potentially significant because of a row of buildings constructed in a Victorian style, then all the buildings should be inspected to ensure that the physical characteristics that you would expect to see in a Victorian-style home are still present. This could be everything from a residential area with several buildings constructed in the same distinct style to a downtown business district that preserves the buildings that aided the town’s early development. Researchers at NASA discovered that Three Gorges was creating a sort of lake effect, decreasing rainfall in the area around it, while increasing rainfall in the surrounding mountains. To become a historic district listed in the National Register, the area must meet specific criteria. Contributing properties either meet the criteria of National Register significance individually, or they relate to the overall significance of the district.
Historic districts may include some noncontributing properties. Noncontributing properties were not present during the significant period of time, have been altered dramatically since then or don’t relate to the historical significance. In 1966, the National Historic Preservation Act created the National Register of Historic Places, the official list of properties that are significant to our history, which is maintained by the National Park Service. This acknowledges that Mollytown is important and provides a historic preservation advisory board the opportunity to comment if any future federal projects will affect the district. You have to give it to the staff,” says Barnes, whose book ” The 4 Day Week: How the Flexible Work Revolution Can Increase Productivity, Profitability and Wellbeing, and Create a Sustainable Future” is coming out in January 2020. “You have to have the confidence of a leader in those circumstances and say, ‘This is about you changing how you work. For those interested in pursuing a more specialized career path, a Bachelor of Science in Psychology can lead to careers in developmental psychology. With a few exceptions, the property must be more than 50 years old. Still, there’s one more step.
On the next page, we’ll take a closer look at national historic districts, including one that spans 9,774 acres. However, not everything in the district has to be significant to gain listing in the National Register. It may surprise you to learn, though, that listing a property on the National Register is not always enough to protect it, and that the real power lies with local historic districts. National Register listing confers several legal benefits to historic properties. To illustrate how the properties of significance, context and integrity play into getting listed in the National Register, we’ll take a look at a fictional example on the next page. While Cassini will crash into Saturn and burn up in order to avoid possibly contaminating the environments of the planet’s potentially habitable moons, Dawn will live on as it drifts harmlessly through space without getting its icky cooties all over everything. In addition, federal law does not require an employee to quit in order to receive benefits due to the impact of COVID-19. This law also authorized the FDIC to invest money in (or “bail out”) a failing U.S. Turn the page to find out if a neighborhood known as Mollytown will qualify as a historical district.
Engineers and scientists around the country are working hard to develop the technologies astronauts will use to one day live and work on Mars, and safely return home from the next giant leap for humanity. However, if a majority of Mollytown’s property owners agree to the listing and the State Review Board finds significance, which they do in this scenario, then the officer will nominate the neighborhood for historic district status in the National Register. The officer also notifies Mollytown’s property owners and holds a period of public comment. The SHPO assesses whether the property might be eligible and helps Mrs. E. fill out the nomination form, which explains why the neighborhood should be listed. A few residents hesitate because they know Mrs. E. is really just concerned about the height of her neighbor’s roof, whereas if a majority of them had banded together to oppose Mrs. E., the property only would have been submitted for a determination of eligibility. Have you ever been devastated by a neighbor’s decision to paint his house a garish color?
