File:James and Jennie Cooper House.JPG[edit]

Do you recall the specific location of this house? The address given at en:National Register of Historic Places listings in Polk County, Oregon had a movie theater built on it in 2007 - about a year and a half before your photo. I'm guessing the house was relocated, but I can't figure out where to. Help? — Ipoellet (talk) f.k.a. Werewombat 21:33, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ipoellet. Yes, I had a nice cup of coffee there. And this is my absolute favorite type of rural Gothic house (center gable with arched window). It is here: http://goo.gl/maps/vgvKM. The movie theater is across the street (although the Google maps marker has it next door to the "Pink House Cafe"). Something must have gone wrong somewhere as I don't think the house has moved? Not sure where the coords are from. Hopefully you are writing an article? Here's some info on the cafe. Thanks for asking! Valfontis (talk) 21:43, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, duh, just read the article. It *was* moved: "Inside as well as out, the house is an expertly renovated 1870's home. The owners purchased it in a dilapidated condition from the city, and moved it to make room for the new theater." Valfontis (talk) 21:47, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed the entry in the table. Kind of original research if you would like to add a source that would be great. I probably won't get around to it. Thanks for keeping those updated! Valfontis (talk) 21:53, 3 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, thank you very much. I think this one is the best quality photo on the Polk County list, and you choose dependably good pics to upload in general. I wouldn't worry about original research - that article you linked is a sufficient source as far as I'm concerned. That said, when the NPS is back online after the government shutdown, I intend to go through the Weekly List archive to see if they formally recorded/approved the move of this house. If they did, then no OR concerns at all. — Ipoellet (talk) f.k.a. Werewombat 18:32, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're welcome. (Some of my pics really aren't very good though!) I have tons more pics I need to upload from all over the valley, but I killed my computer. Cross your fingers I can get the stuff off my hard drive one of these days. BTW, not NHRP, but lost something historic in Polk County yesterday. Valfontis (talk) 20:23, 4 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
