Heinrich A. Rattermann House : ウィキペディア英語版 | Heinrich A. Rattermann House
The Heinrich A. Rattermann House was a historic residence in the West End neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1860,〔 it was a brick building with a stone foundation and elements of iron and stone.〔(Rattermann, Heinrich A., House ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2011-07-11.〕 It was the home of Heinrich Armin Rattermann from 1895 until his 1923 death. The most prominent German-American author in the history of the United States, Ratterman worked to solidify German-American culture; he sought to teach his compatriots their culture and produced a history of German Americans in Ohio.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 2. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 657.〕 Born in 1832 in Osnabrück, Rattermann and his parents moved to the United States in 1845. In the following year, they moved to Cincinnati, where he worked at a lumberyard for more than a decade before founding a fire insurance company for German-Americans. At the age of sixty-three, he moved into a house on York Street in the West End; into the late twentieth century, this three-story residence was one of the area's best Italianate houses. Among its architectural elements was a prominent bracketed cornice around the edge of the flat roof.〔 In 1980, Rattermann's house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, both because of its connection to Rattermann and because of its historic and well-preserved architecture.〔 Despite its landmarked status, the house has been destroyed;〔(National Register of Historic Places - Individual Resources: Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio ), Cincinnati, 2005-06. Accessed 2011-06-14.〕 the site is now an empty lot.〔Photograph in infobox.〕 Nevertheless, the building remains listed on the National Register.〔 ==References==
