The Utah State Hospital Recreation Center, also known as the Castle Amphitheater, was built by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) during the New Deal. It was constructed between 1936-1937 and can seat 800 people. The structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Schifferdecker house was built in 1890 by prominent Joplin businessman and philanthropist Charles Schifferdecker. Charles immigrated to the United States in 1869 and quickly made a name for himself in brewing. After moving to Joplin, Schifferdecker founded a brewing company and became involved in the city’s booming mining industry. He married his wife Mina in 1877, who also became a prominent member of the community. The home, as well as various parks bearing Schifferdecker’s name in Joplin, display the family’s relevance to the city’s history, growth, and current culture. Restoration of the home began in 2018 and is currently in the process of becoming a museum. 

Since its opening in 1957, the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library and Museum has offered a research library and galleries that preserve and share the history of Harry Truman's life and presidency. This was also the first Presidential Library established following a 1955 law that supported the creation of these institutions. Truman personally worked to build the library and maintained a personal office which has been preserved and serves as one of the highlights of the tour. Today, the library helps bring the late President's life and legacy to light for modern scholars and everyday Americans through exhibits and a vast archival collection of documents from the Truman Administration.Listen to the clip below under Backstory and Context when you are on the Truman Walking Tour!

While Corinthian Hall served as the home for the Long Family, the Lower Level (Basement) served many different functions, including providing an area for the staff to complete chores and conduct day-to-day business. The home held many technological advancements for the time that assisted the staff in their daily duties. One such feature was an elevator, and when it was installed in 1910, the mansion became the first private home west of the Mississippi River to have a commercial-sized elevator. The elevator demonstrated the immense wealth that the Long family held, and it was also a practical innovation which aided both residents and staff, along with other modern wonders of the age that were hidden away from view on the Lower Level. For example, the basement held the electrical system, a mechanical room for the pipe organ, and a soft water system for laundry.

This eighteen foot statue commemorates the life and career of Charlie Parker, one of the most influential jazz musicians of the 20th century. Parker grew up in Kansas City and played at many Vine Street nightclubs before pursuing a musical career in New York and California. He is widely considered to be one of the creators of bebop. The statue features Parker's head tilted downward, eye shut, and lips pursed as if he were playing the saxophone. At the base of the status, an inscription reads "Bird Lives" a reference to Parker's nickname and his long-lasting legacy.

The famed “HP Garage,” as well as the adjoining two-story house and shed, were the birthplace of the Hewlett-Packard Company (HP), and of Silicon Valley as a center of high-tech innovation. William “Bill” Hewlett and David “Dave” Packard, who had both been students of Prof. Frederick Terman (later known as "The Father of Silicon Valley"), worked at the property between 1938 and 1940. The two men started out with $538 in working capital, including a used drill press that Packard had brought west with him. In their first major success, they sold eight units of a variable frequency oscillator they had developed to the Walt Disney Company, which needed them for the rollout of its animated classic, Fantasia. Today, HP is a Fortune 500 company with billions of dollars in annual revenues. The property at 367 Addison was the company’s headquarters until 1940, by which time the company had outgrown the original site and moved elsewhere. The property was registered as California Registered Landmark No. 976 in August 1987 and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.

Euclid Avenue in East Cleveland, OH was the site of the Cleveland Woman's Suffrage Party headquarters starting in 1912. On June 7, 1916, the Plain Dealer verified the location of the Woman's Suffrage Party headquarters, and reported a jubilant celebration after East Cleveland voters approved a Charter Amendment extending suffrage rights to women in municipal elections. Ohio became the first state east of the Mississippi to vote on issues of universal suffrage (1912), and East Cleveland became one of the first cities to grant woman suffrage for municipal issues (1916); a decision that was upheld the following year by the Ohio Supreme Court. Following the ratification of the 19th Amendment for women's suffrage, the Cleveland Woman's Suffrage Party disbanded in May 1920 and reorganized as the Cleveland League of Women Voters.
