Gossips Celebrates National Preservation Month: Historic Detail 30

We've reached the penultimate detail in the 2014 Historic Detail Hunt. Before we get to that, though, let's review the rules and reveal the prizes. Early tomorrow morning, on the last day of May, Gossips will publish the final detail and provide a walking list, which you can download, of all thirty-one details. Participants are asked to submit a numbered list, identifying each detail by the address of the building on which it is found. Your lists must be submitted to Gossips before midnight on Friday, June 6--a deadline that gives you plenty of time to find the details and win a prize.

To motivate you to look, here are the prizes: 
  • The first person (or team) to submit a list identifying the locations of all thirty-one details correctly will receive a $50 gift certificate from the Red Dot
  • The next three people (or teams) to submit their lists identifying all the details correctly will receive a $25 gift certificate from Look, Olde Hudson, or Park Falafel & Pizza
  • Everyone else who submits a list before midnight on Friday, June 6, identifying at least sixteen of the thirty-one details correctly will receive "consolation cookies" from Trixie's Oven, and there are few things as consoling as Trixie's cookies.
Now that you are properly incentivized and eager to complete (or begin) the hunt, here is the detail for today.
