Walla Walla is the largest city and the county seat of Walla Walla County , Washington , United States . The population of the city itself was 31,731 at the 2010 census . The population of Walla Walla and its two suburbs , the town of College Place and unincorporated East Walla Walla , is about 45,000 . Walla Walla is in the southeastern region of Washington , approximately four hours away by car from Portland , Oregon , and four and half hours from Seattle , and only 6 mi ( 10 km ) north of the Oregon border .
The Italianate style of architecture was a distinct 19th-century phase in the history of Classical architecture . In the Italianate style , the models and architectural vocabulary of 16th-century Italian Renaissance architecture , which had served as inspiration for both Palladianism and Neoclassicism , were synthesised with picturesque aesthetics . The style of architecture that was thus created , though also characterised as Neo-Renaissance , was essentially of its own time . The backward look transforms its object , Siegfried Giedion wrote of historicist architectural styles ; every spectator at every period - at every moment , indeed - inevitably transforms the past according to his own nature . The Italianate style was first developed in Britain in about 1802 by John Nash , with the construction of Cronkhill in Shropshire . This small country house is generally accepted to be the first Italianate villa in England , from which is derived the Italianate architecture of the late Regency and early Victorian eras . The Italianate style was further developed and popularised by the architect Sir Charles Barry in the 1830s . Barry 's Italianate style ( occasionally termed Barryesque ) drew heavily for its motifs on the buildings of the Italian Renaissance , though sometimes at odds with Nash 's semi-rustic Italianate villas . The style was not confined to England and was employed in varying forms , long after its decline in popularity in Britain , throughout Northern Europe and the British Empire . From the late 1840s to 1890 it achieved huge popularity in the United States , where it was promoted by the architect Alexander Jackson Davis .
The Stick style was a late-19th-century American architectural style , transitional between the Carpenter Gothic style of the mid-19th century , and the Queen Anne style that it had evolved into by the 1890s . It is named after its use of linear stickwork ( overlay board strips ) on the outside walls to mimic an exposed half-timbered frame .
Waitsburg is a city in Walla Walla County , Washington , United States . The population was 1,217 at the 2010 census . Waitsburg has a unique city classification in the State of Washington : it is the only city which still operates under its territorial charter .
In the United States , Queen Anne-style architecture was popular from roughly 1880 to 1910 . Queen Anne was one of a number of popular architectural styles to emerge during the Victorian era . Within the Victorian era timeline , Queen Anne style followed the Eastlake style and preceded the Richardsonian Romanesque and Shingle styles . The style bears almost no relationship to the Queen Anne style architecture , a toned-down version of English Baroque mostly used for gentry houses , produced in the actual reign of Queen Anne from 1702 to 1714 . It describes a wide range of picturesque buildings with free Renaissance ( non-Gothic Revival ) details rather than of a specific formulaic style in its own right . Queen Anne , as an alternative both to the French-derived Second Empire and the less domestic Beaux-Arts architecture , is broadly applied to architecture , furniture and decorative arts of the period 1880 to 1910 ; some Queen Anne architectural elements , such as the wraparound front porch , continued to be found into the 1920s .
The Dacres Hotel is a historic hotel in Walla Walla , Washington , United States . Rebuilt from the ruins of Walla Walla 's first brick hotel , the 1873 Stine House , the Italianate building was re-opened in 1899 by James E. Dacres . The building is a rare and exceptional local example of the pre-fabricated cast iron facades manufactured by the Mesker Brothers . Bennes , Hendricks & Tobey remodeled the building in 1907 . It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 5 , 1974 . Ceasing operations as a hotel in 1959 , the building currently houses a live music and events venue known as 'The Dacres ' on the ground floor while the upper floors remain unused .
Dixie is a census-designated place ( CDP ) in Walla Walla County , Washington , United States . The population was 197 at the 2010 census . A post office called Dixie has been in operation since 1881 . The community derives its name from the song Dixie .

The Electric Light Works Building , also known as Gesa Power House Theatre , is a noteworthy building in Walla Walla , Washington that has aided in the growth and success of the city . It started out as a substation in the early 20th century , supplying Walla Walla with electricity , supporting economic growth , and allowing it to develop into a city of now over 30,000 people . It was one of the first substations that converted hydropower to electricity in Washington state and is a good example of industrial architecture in the 1900s . Today it is as much a symbol of Walla Wallas history as it is of the ever-changing culture of Walla Walla .
Fort Walla Walla is a United States Army fort located in Walla Walla , Washington . The first Fort Walla Walla was established July 1856 , by Lieutenant Colonel Edward Steptoe , 9th Infantry Regiment . A second Fort Walla Walla was occupied September 23 , 1856 . The third and permanent military Fort Walla Walla was built in 1858 and adjoined Steptoeville , now Walla Walla , Washington , a community that had grown up around the second fort . An Executive Order on May 7 , 1859 declared the fort a military reservation containing 640 acres devoted to military purposes and a further 640 acres each of hay and timber reserves . On September 28 , 1910 soldiers from the 1st Cavalry lowered the flag closing the fort . In 1917 , the fort briefly reopened to train men of the First Battalion Washington Field Artillery in support of action in World War I . In 1921 , the fort and property were turned over to the Veterans Administration where 15 original buildings from the military era remain . Today , the complex contains a park , a museum , and the Jonathan M. Wainright Memorial VA Medical Center .
Renaissance Revival architecture ( sometimes referred to as Neo-Renaissance ) is a group of 19th century architectural revival styles which were neither Greek Revival nor Gothic Revival but which instead drew inspiration from a wide range of classicizing Italian modes . Under the broad designation Renaissance architecture nineteenth-century architects and critics went beyond the architectural style which began in Florence and central Italy in the early 15th century as an expression of Renaissance humanism ; they also included styles we would identify as Mannerist or Baroque . Self-applied style designations were rife in the mid- and later nineteenth century : Neo-Renaissance might be applied by contemporaries to structures that others called Italianate , or when many French Baroque features are present ( Second Empire ) . The divergent forms of Renaissance architecture in different parts of Europe , particularly in France and Italy , has added to the difficulty of defining and recognizing Neo-Renaissance architecture . A comparison between the breadth of its source material , such as the English Wollaton Hall , Italian Palazzo Pitti , the French Château de Chambord , and the Russian Palace of Facets - all deemed Renaissance - illustrates the variety of appearances the same architectural label can take .
Lowden is an unincorporated community in Walla Walla County , Washington , United States .

The Woodward Canyon Winery is a popular destination for locals and visitors in Lowden . Coordinates : 46°03′22″N 118°35′09″W / 46.05611°N 118.58583°W / 46.05611 ; -118.58583
The Touchet River /ˈtuːʃi/ is a 55-mile ( 89 km ) tributary of the Walla Walla River in southeastern Washington in the United States . The upper Touchet was a traditional summer meeting place for trade and games for the Palus , Nez Perce and Walla Walla tribes . The name Touchet derives from the similarly pronounced Sahaptin term for the river , Tu-se meaning roasting . Nez Perce legend tells that coyote roasted salmon at this river after breaking a fish dam guarded by the seven swallow sisters at Celilo . The USGS cited two variant names , Pouchet River and Toosha River .
The Kirkman House is an authentic example of the luxurious 1880s , a period of extensive growth for Walla Walla in downtown business buildings and in fine homes .

The Shingle style is an American architectural style made popular by the rise of the New England school of architecture , which eschewed the highly ornamented patterns of the Eastlake style in Queen Anne architecture . In the Shingle style , English influence was combined with the renewed interest in Colonial American architecture which followed the 1876 celebration of the Centennial . The plain , shingled surfaces of colonial buildings were adopted , and their massing emulated . Aside from being a style of design , the style also conveyed a sense of the house as continuous volume . This effect - of the building as an envelope of space , rather than a great mass , was enhanced by the visual tautness of the flat shingled surfaces , the horizontal shape of many Shingle style houses , and the emphasis on horizontal continuity , both in exterior details and in the flow of spaces within the houses .
