By 1890 a number of fine small Queen Anne-style residences had been built in the district, including the house at 108 Lake Street (125-8- 671, an ornate frame dwelling with a corner tower and wraparound porch with a spindle frieze and sawn ornament. A row of related frame dwellings in the 200 block of Washington Avenue appears to date from this period, each a two-story house which combines Queen Anne-style decoration with a traditional regional, or vernacular, floor plan. In this case the houses exhibit a form identified as the T-plan dwelling, in which dwellings resemble the letter T in configuration, with the top- bar of the T perpendicular to the street. Another house from the 1890s, which exhibits a regional or vernacular floor plan and unusually elaborate exterior ornamentation,is located at 201 Washington Avenue. . The deep bracketed eaves and ornate dormers, and the elaborate porch conceal a vernacular center-passage-plan form, in which the two main rooms on each floor are separated by a central passage or entry hall. Similar houses include the double-pile (two rooms deep) center-passage- plan brick dwelling at 37 Washington Avenue (125-8-3041, and the large, ornate, double-pile T-plan dwellings at 19 First Street (125-8-312) and at 132 Lake Street (125-8-69), the former of brick and the latter of frame construction. The one-story brick house at 311 State Street (125- 8 - 2 1 5 ) has a T-plan form and a spectacular scroll-sawn porch. Vernacular houses are found at all levels of the town's social and economic spectrom, and architect-or pattern-book-inspired houses are rare.
At the same time that the grander houses were being built for inanagement employees of the local industries and community leaders, workers were being housed in smaller accommodations in various sections of town. Not necessarily segregated from the other segments of society except in the elite residential area north of Peak Creek, the dwellings of these workers are perhaps best typified by the row of houses on the west side of Pierce Avenue (125-8-265 through 2811, built for the workers of a nearby lumber company. Most of the small dwellings take the double-cell (two-room) or center-passage-plan forms. Black workers settled on the outskirts of the district. Maple Street is now, and seems to have been for many decades, an area of housing for blacks.

The industrial roots of Pulaski are perhaps best illustrated by the surviving buildings associated with the Bertha Zinc and Mineral Company's plant at the west end of town. Unfortunately the site of the plant itself has been in continuous industrial use since 1880 and subject to continual change. While several structures within the plant may date to the period of significance, the overall appearance and form has been altered and as a result the plant is not included in the district. The buildings in the district include the frame one-story office (with projecting brick vault) at the corner of Commerce and Sertha streets (125-8-2), the commissary at State and Commerce streets i125-8-60], and a two-story brick commercial building with lateral wing similar to c o ~ ~ k a n y -store buildings in other industrial towns of the period (including Eagle Rock in Botetourt County and Boom Furnace and 9elle Xampton mines in Pulaski County). Unlike the detached housing so typical cf rural Virginia company towns, a unique feature of the Bertha operation was the provision of company housing in the form of attached two-story six-unit brick rowhouses at 28-38 State Street (125-71. On the hill south of the commissary and the plant itself stands a group of houses for middle and upper management employees. The large frame Queen Anne-style house at 838 Front Street (125-8-19) was labeled "Vice President" on early Sanborn maps. A nearby row of frame T-plan dwellings along the west sides of Bertha and State streets is visible in the photograph of 1886. This well-preserved group of buildings demonstrates the form and nature of late-nineteenth-century industrial housing in Southwest Virginia. The unusual brick rowhouses may reflect c h ? welsh background of the first manager and many of the early workers ,:f the plant. Welsh workers were apparently imported for their metalurgical skills.
The Arts and Crafts movement of the second decade of the twentieth century changed the appearance of the district. Bungalows of widely varying sizes and levels of sophistication were built on undeveloped lots throughout the district. These bungalows are one-and-one-half- story usually square houses of frame or brick construction. They usually feature an asymmetrical plan, a deep gabled roof with wide eaves, and a central dormer. The popularity of the bungalow was the result of the publication of plans and sales of entire prefabricated buildings by national distributors. ~ o o d examples include the modest frame dwelling at 119 Bertha Street (125-8-22) and the group of elaborate and well-detailed bungalows on the south side of Dora Highway near the Pulaski Passenger Station. These include the houses at 34, 38, 118, 130, 208, 212, and 230 Dora Highway. A few modest houses were built in the 1930s in the colonial Revival style, as well as in the Tudor Revival style, notably the house at 301 Jefferson Avenue (125-8- 162).

Few churches exist in the district today, since most churches in the area relocated to the north side of Peak Creek and their buildings were demolished. The Macgill Memorial Episcopal Chapel (125-8-116), already mentioned, is a three-bay, nave-plan, frame church built about 1880, and later converted into a dwelling. The First Pentecostal Church at First Street, S.W. and Jefferson Avenue (125-8-328) is one of few churches in the district that were built during the twentieth century. The handsome church was built in the second quarter of the twentieth century, and the brick walls are pierced with pointed-arched windows separated by stone-capped buttresses. The central entry is protected by an arched porch in the Gothic style.
Educational buildings in the district are limited to the Jefferson School of 1924, a one-story, brick, twenty-room school with a central auditorium and a portico of Doric columns on its First Street facade. A few commercial buildings are randomly scattered throughout the district, including the two-story frame commercial building at Dora Highway and Pierce Avenue (125-8-286), and the brick two-story commercial building at the corner of Dora Highway and Washington Avenue (125-8-205).
In the decades after 1940 few buildings were built that added to the district's architectural character. Most are one-story ranch or tract houses. A limited number of houses were altered during recent decades, but for the most part, the district has maintained its character. Among the noncontributing buildings in the district is the brick dwelling (125-8-106) at 419 Second Street that was built in the third quarter of the twentieth century.

The town of Pulaski is situated upon land first acquired by Joseph and James Montgomery around 1760. Upon James's death, his daughter Mary, the wife of William T. Campbell, inherited the portion of his property on which much of the present town of Pulaski was to d e ~ e l o p . ~ Robert Martin and his son, Robert D. Martin, purchased this land in 1846.
Before its incorporation in 1 86, the town of Pulaski was known as :lartln's Tank or Martin's Station.! Martin's Tank was established in : 3 5 6 as a consequence of the arrival of the Virginia and Tennessee .?a~lraad.~The Martins donated the ten acres of land on which the rallroad station and water tank were constructed, and benefited from the sale of the surrounding land as the area developed as a transportation and commercial center.
For many years following the advent of the railroad only the tank, wood yard, and Martin home existed at Martin's ~ a n k ; ~ h o w e v e r , in the early 1870s L. S. Calfee, Robert D. Martin's son-in-law, opened the first general merchandise store where the Pepper's Ferry Road crossed the railroad tracks.' In 1873 Robert D. Martin commissioned William T. Sart to survey the improvements and transportation routes at his Mountain View Home with the intention of selling lots or parcels of land as the area developed.81n 1880 the Bertha Zinc and Mineral Company was established as the first heavy industry in Martin's Tank. Welsh workers and management personnel moved to Martin's Tank to operate the plant. Xaqons transported ore from the Barren Springs in Wythe County to the cotin.
Within the next few years, Martin sold his surveyed property to various land companies in the area for the sum of thirty-five thousand dollars. Of the twelve land companies, the Pulaski Land Improvement Company, chartered in 1884, was responsible for the town layout. It Was in this same year, 1884, that Martin's Tank was renamed Pulaski Station, and in 1886 it was incorporated as the town of Pulaski City. By 1887. the Cripple Creek Branch of the Norfolk & Western Railway was completed, connecting the mineral regions of Wythe County and beyond with the main line at Pulaski. This further stimulated growth and in the following year the town was replatted on a much larger scale. The town's leaders convinced the railway to originate the branch line at Pulaski, although a route along the New River to Central Depot (Radford) might have been more logical. 9

The Pulaski South Historic Residential and Industrial Distrlct was home to most of the businesses and residences in Pulaski in a out 1884 when J. W. Keister, a drugstore owner, drew a map of the town!4 A group of houses, a wagon factory, and the Episcopal church stood on Valley Street at the south edge of the community. A blacksmith shop, the Conway, Keister, and Company Drugstore, and a stable stood farther north. Several residences, another drugstore, and the general store of L. S. Calfee were located near the intersection of the railroad with Valley Street. Calfee's Store had been established in the early 1870s as one of the town's first businesses. The Maple Shade Inn on the eastern edge of town, the Bertha Zinc and Mineral Company complex to the vest; and the railroad station north of the tracks on the east side of Valley Street completed the town. .
A photograph t ken in the late 1880's shows the same neighborhood from the southeast.'' Prominent on the hill west of Valley Street near LaGrange Street is shown the new home of L. S. Calfee, merchant and son- in-law of Pulaski's first developer, Robert D. Martin. Calfee and his wife, Ella Martin Calfee, were involved in developing the land around his house, and a letter from his son describes the grounds and the house. The land around it was laid out in streets "on paper only" during the early years and was used as orchards and hay fields.16 Calfee left the house in 1907 and it was torn down in 1963. It was built of pressed brlck, designed by architect Walter P. Tinsley, then of Lynchburg. Tinsley was active from about 1880 to 1913 in various southern cities. '7~he contractor was John P. Pettijohn of Lynchburg. The 1380s photograph shows a very large hip-roofed house of two stories, with a tower on the north side, several porches and bay windows, and a service ell and associated outbuildings. Other buildings that survive in the district and show up in the photograph include the Macgill Memorial Episcopal Chapel (125-8-116), now used as a residence and considerably altered.
A bitter rivalry developed between the older and newer parts of the town as it expand d to include the north side of the railroad tracks during the 1890~.'~ The Valley Street connection to Draper Valley hardly was used during the period; instead traffic went around Peak Mountain on the Dora Highway. In 1928 the town government sought to improve the old road and to eliminate the necessity of going around the mountain. A new route was built in 1932, when Route 11 was carried over Draper Mountain as an extension of Washington Avenue.

Poor and middle-class whites and blacks in Pulaski County received an inadequate education until 1870 when the free public school system was established. In 1889 an eight-room brick elementary school (now demolished) was built on Randolph Avenue on the north side of town. By 1906-7 the number of schools in the county had increased to fifty with an enrcllment of 2,800 whites and 620 blacks. The school board purchased the former vegetable garden of the Maple Shade Inn in 1923 to build a new elementary school for children living south of the railroad tracks. The one-story, brick, twenty-room school included a central seven-hundred-seat auditorium and housed the first through third grades until 1928, when three rooms were added for fifth grade classes. The school continues to function today as an elementary school. -
The Episcopal congregation constructed the first church in Martin's Station in 1879 on land donated by Robert D. Martin, a Presbyterian. The structure, known as Macgill Memorial Chapel, still standing, was built on Valley Street in the old part of town. In 1897, a new Gothic Revival Episcopal church (125-6-156) was constructed on Sixth Street at Washington Square in the Pulaski Historic Residential District. Although this building burned before it was completed, a new Episcopal church was eventually completed on another site in the Pulaski Historic Commercial District. 1 9
Local Methodists first met in a small schoolhouse in 1880 and by 1887 had constructed a building (no longer standing) in the old part of town. In 1916 the congregation of First Methodist Church moved to its present location in the Pulaski Historic Residential Distrlct north of the railroad tracks.20 Presbyterians also formed a congregation in 1880 and, as with the first Methodist congregation, it built a church in 1890 on a lot south of Peak Creek, on land donated by the Calfee family. This congregation likewise moved to the north side of town when it built the First Presbyterian Church in the early twentieth century21 BY 1878 a minister from nearby Snowville was coming to conduct services for the Christian church (Disciples of Christ). By the early 1880s the congregation occupied a small frame church on Water Street south of the creek. The First Christian Church acquired its present property on Jefferson Avenue north of the creek in 1891 and finished a frame church on the site the next year?Z In the 1940s the First Pentecostal Church was built by its congregation (organized 1910) on the corner of First Street, S.W., and Jefferson Avenue, today the district's only active church (125-8-328).
In 1936, the town built Calfee Park, a sports field, on the east side of the district to provide a public site for competitive team sports, especially baseball.

The town of Pulaski has suffered from a depressed economic climate since the closing of the mineral industries before and during the Depression. Largely for this reason the district has not suffered from the growth that has affected similar districts in Roanoke, a railroad and industrial city of similar age. In spite of the economic climate, the district has remained a carefully maintained area where most lots contain their original structures and where houses have, until recent years, been slow to change hands and are well maintained by their owner/occupants. Lots through the district were gradually filled in through the mid-twentieth century, and the density characteristic of the streets today was achieved.
