<p>Keney Tower is a memorial tower located in a small public park at Main and Ely Streets north of downtown Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1898 as a memorial to family members by the locally prominent Keney family, it is a distinctive local example of Collegiate Gothic architecture, and is the city&#39;s only free-standing tower. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Keney Tower is located on the northern fringe of downtown Hartford, from which it is now separated by Interstate 84. It is located in a park 1.5 acre in size at the southeast corner of Main and Ely Streets, in an area dominated by traffic and commercial development. The tower stands near the center of the roughly square park. Its base is 30 ft square, and it rises to a height of 130 ft. It is built out of ashlar-cut red sandstone quarried in Longmeadow, Massachusetts. Its verticality is heightened by corner buttresses, and pinnacles that rise above its roof to finial crosses. There are clock faces on all four sides, above which are lancet-arched louvers around the chamber housing chiming bells that sound every quarter hour.</p><br>
<p>The tower was built in 1898 on land that belonged at the time to the locally prominent Keney family. Its construction was done by the family under the terms of the will of Henry Keney, who sought to memorialize his wholesale grocery business, H. & W. Keney. The family, however, instead placed a plaque on the tower reading "This tower erected to the memory of my mother is designed to preserve from other occupancy the ground sacred to me as her home and to stand in perpetual honor to the wisdom, goodness and womanly nobility of her to whose guidance I owe my success in life and its chief joy ~ Henry Keney". The tower was designed by New York City architect Charles C. Haight, whose specialty was Collegiate Gothic architecture. The family trust deeded the tower and park to the city in 1924.</p><br>
<p>Tell Aqab is an ancient Mesopotamian settlement located in northeastern Syria, occupied from the early Halaf period  to c. 3,800 BCE. It is situated at the northern edge of the Khabur Plain near the headwaters of the Khabur tributary of the Euphrates, 6 km north of the town of Amuda in Jazira Canton. It is one of the few sites that contain material relating to the Halaf-Ubaid Transitional period c. 5,500–5,000 BCE.</p><br>
<h2>Archaeological research</h2><br>
<p>Characteristics and analysis of the pottery at Tell Aqab indicate that a large proportion of it is non-local and that there was a high level of trading activity with the nearby production centre of Chagar Bazar, some 15 km southwest of Tell Aqab.</p><br>
<p>Microscopic examination of the Ubaid pottery of Tell Aqab show that temper had been added to the clay of all analysed vessels. Temper is not present in any of the painted Halaf pots of Tell Aqab.</p><br>
<p>The presence of marine shells at Tell Aqab attests to links further afield, to the nearby Mediterranean or Black Seas. Two specimens of Nassarius circumcinctus and one of Calliostoma zizyphinum were found in mid-to-late Halaf contexts at Tell Aqab. A survey of the distribution of shellfish in the "Seas of Turkey", no C. zizyphinum nor N. circumcuntus was found in the Black Sea or Sea of Marmara, however both were found in the Mediterranean and Aegean Seas.</p><br>
<p>A gradual Halaf-Ubaid Transitional phase has been identified at Tell Aqab. Such a gradual transition has also been identified at other sites in Syria.</p><br>
<p>The James Noble Sherwood House is a private house located at 768 Riverview Drive in Plainwell, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1831, Hull Sherwood, originally from Brighton, New York moved to this area and purchased land along the Kalamazoo River, where he established a grist and sawmill. Lebbeus Sherwood, one of Hull&#39;s sons, also arrived in the area in 1831 with his family, and two years later he purchased this plot of land along the Kalamazoo River, where he constructed a frame house. With Lebbeus was his son, James Noble Sherwood, who was born in 1820. Lebbeus died of pneumonia in 1835 and the land passed to James.</p><br>
<p>James Noble Sherwood constructed this house in 1863-64, using local laborers. When James died in 1903, he passed the house and property to his own son, Edward Jay Sherwood. Upon Edward&#39;s death in 1934, the house was passed to his son Marion Sherwood. The house was sold by the Sherwood family in 1964.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The James Noble Sherwood House is a two story brick Greek Revival house built in a gabled Upright and Wing form, with a single-story kitchen addition in the rear. A wide entablature extends around the house, with cornice returns at the gable ends. A wooden shed roof entrance porch runs along the front of the wing section, sheltering three six-over-six windows and a door. The gable end of the upright section has two six-over-six windows in each story, set in segmental-arch-head opening. Similar windows are set in the sides of the house.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the first story contains a large parlor, a kitchen, dining room, and two small rooms which were likely originally bedrooms. A former pantry is now a bathroom. The second floor contains three bedrooms. The upper portion of the wing was originally a single room; it has been remodeled into a bedroom, bathroom, and storage space. The house contains The original white pine flooring throughout.</p><br>
<p>Beljarica  is a wetland in the Danube valley in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia. Since 2013 it is in the process of becoming protected area. Due to the abundant wildlife and undisturbed nature, though being close to downtown Belgrade, it has been nicknamed "Belgrade&#39;s Amazonia".</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>Beljarica is located northwest of Belgrade, in the southwest corner of the Pančevački Rit marshland and, thus, of the Banat region. It begins 15 km It belongs to the municipality of Palilula and, though inhabited, it is administratively divided between the settlements of Borča (southern), Kovilovo (central) and Padinska Skela (northern part).</p><br>
<p>It begins north of the point where the Pupin Bridge crosses the Danube and stretches across several neighborhoods and settlements on the left, Syrmian bank: Nova Galenika, 13. Maj, Batajnica (in the municipality of Zemun) and Novi Banovci (in the municipality of Stara Pazova).</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Beljarica occupies the marshland between the left bank of the Danube and the curved embankment which protects the drained and arable land in Pančevački Rit. Northern section is known as the bog of Široka Bara. It covers an area of 18.6 km&sup2; and is locally also known as "Crvenka" or "Balaton".</p><br>
<p>As an elongated floodplain along the Danube, Beljarica is a typical green corridor. The marshland represents a mosaic of bogs, streams, oxbows, meanders and lush forests and makes a natural riparian zone which receives the surplus of water during the high water level of the Danube, thus preventing the flooding downstream.</p><br>
<h2>Wildlife</h2><br>
<p>The wetland is home to 216 plant species, 139 species of insects and 98 species of fish. Beljarica is a major fish spawning and bird nesting area. Of 136 bird species which live in Beljarica, 108 are protected. There are several nesting couples of the largest European eagle, white-tailed eagle, and the black stork also lives in the area.</p><br>
<p>Mammals in the wetland include otter, wild cat, pine marten and beech marten, but also wild hog, coypu and jackal. There are 62 mammalian species in Beljarica.</p><br>
<h2>Protection and human interaction</h2><br>
<p>As Serbia is a signatory of the Berne Convention on the Conservation of European Wildlife and Natural Habitats and the Birds Directive, the state is obliged to protect such an abundant bird habitat. Additionally, since Beljarica is in the "process of becoming a protected area", as the nature reserve, since 2013, it considered as the protected until the government decides whether it will declare it a reserve or not. Additionally, with the islands of Veliko Ratno Ostrvo and Malo Ratno Ostrvo, it constitutes the Important Bird Area of the "Sava&#39;s mouth into the Danube".</p><br>
<p>In 2015, city assembly was to vote on declaring the reserve of the "Wetland on the Danubes left bank in Belgrade", which was even envisioned as the core of the future "National Park Belgrade" but the motion was withdrawn before the vote. After President of the Peoples Republic of China Xi Jinping visited Serbia in 2016, it was announced that the large, new port of Belgrade will be built in the central part of Beljarica. The proposed area of the future port is almost half of the wetland and should cover 8.72 km&sup2; in its central part.</p><br>
<p>Environmentalists protested stating that the partial urbanization and industrialization will fragment the wetland and that remaining small patches of marsh will not be able to sustain such an abundant wildlife. Petition for the preservation of Beljarica was organized in June 2017. By 2017 the proposal of the new port was temporarily retracted for additional revisions.</p><br>
<p>Coral Gables  is a historic restaurant and resort located at 220 Water Street in Saugatuck, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In the 1890s, the Lake Michigan shore was experiencing a tourism boom as summer resorters arrived from Chicago and other communities. The Saugatuck–Douglas area was no exception, and the 1896 construction of an interurban line from Holland provided an easy connection for visitors. In 1898 the current waterfront site of Coral Gables contained a saloon, but in July 1898 the Leiendecker Brothers of Chicago bought the two-lot property for $3750 (equivalent to $ in ). The firm (represented by Edward J. Leiendecker) kept the saloon open, and added a two-story hotel and dock. Business boomed in 1899, and at the end of the tourist season, Leiendecker moved the saloon and began enlarging the hotel even further. However, in early 1900, the entire complex burned down, likely due to the use of salamander heaters during construction.</p><br>
<p>Leiendecker immediately began working on a new structure, engaging architect William K. Johnston of Chicago to design the current structure. The foundation was complete by early May 1900, and the first rooms, located in the south wing of the structure, were ready to be occupied in June. However, construction on the remaining portions of the structure, now dubbed Leiendecker&#39;s Inn, was not started until late 1905. The new inn was formally opened on June 1, 1906.</p><br>
<p>However, in 1907, Saugatuck voters decided to make the town dry, which likely affected profits at Leiendecker&#39;s Inn. In 1911, Leiendecker tried to sell the hotel, but with no buyers, instead leased it to J.F. Hall, who renamed it the Columbia Hotel. However, after the 1915 SS Eastlast disaster, the hotel lost money in the 1916 season, and closed at the end of the year. It remained vacant until 1920, when Francis Horrigan bought the building, renaming it the Hotel Saugatuck. He ran the hotel until 1928, when it was sold to Edson Crow. Crow, a restaurateur, built up the restaurant and lounge in the building, and ran it with his brother Dale until after both had died. In 1958, the property was sold to Thomas A. Johnson, who owned a popular East Lansing restaurant and night club known as Coral Gables. Johnson enlarged and renovated the restaurant, and opened a separate, smaller restaurant in the basement, as well as another bar.</p><br>
<p>Johnson continued to expand the restaurant and performing areas. By the early 1970s, the hotel function of the building was discontinued, with the former hotel rooms then primarily used for storage. Thomas Johnson died in 1979, leaving the establishment to his sons Topper and Michael. Topper Johnson managed the building until his own death in 1985. Michael Johnson then assumed management, and continued to expand and update the dining and entertainment options in the building.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>Coral Gables is a rectangular building standing on a lot which slopes downward to the Kalamazoo River, such that the basement is on ground level at the rear of the building. The central part of the building, the old hotel, has a U plan above the ground floor, with the base of the U at the front of the building. A tall cross-gambrel roof contains the third story in the front of the building and the wings of the U. There are gables at the front and back of each leg of the U, and another gable near the center of each leg. The front roof between the two front gables contains three smaller gabled dormers, with additional dormers on the wings.</p><br>
<p>The hotel front of the hotel on the first floor is clad with vertical boarding and contains large picture windows and some older double-hung units. The widows in the remainder of the building are set in an irregular pattern, and are double-hung one-over-one units in square-head openings. There are three main entrances, one in the center of the front, and one under each front gable. A single-story porch with square wood posts and wrought-iron railing&#39; likely installed c. 1960, runs the full length of the front of the building. Single-story additions are located on each side of the building.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the main floor and a basement level house a main dining room, a bar/dancing/billiard room, a basement-level bar, and a snack bar. The second and third stories contain hotel rooms, which are now primarily used for storage.</p><br>
<p>Clover Falls, also known in the past as Upper Hemlock Falls, is a waterfall from the Hemlock Creek, in the heart of the Umpqua National Forest, just north of Hemlock Lake and its campground, in Douglas County, Oregon. Access to Clover Falls is from the Lake of the Woods campground. The waterfall is located in a privileged natural area where the river creates several waterfalls: Hemlock Falls, Yakso Falls, and Tributary Falls are within a mile distance.</p><br>
<h2>Trail</h2><br>
<p>The trail to Clover Falls is approximately 1.8 mi out and back. The waterfall is about 25 mi from the unincorporated community of Glide along Little River Road (County Road 17), which becomes Forest Road 27. The trailhead is located on the Lake of the Woods campground and, unlike neighboring waterfalls, the Clover Falls trail doesn&#39;t have signs announcing the waterfall along the trail.</p><br>
<p>The Mathisleweiher is a large bog lake, under 2 hectares in area, in the Black Forest in southern Germany. It lies in the High Black Forest between Feldberg in the west and the Titisee in the east on the territory of Hinterzarten at about southwest of the village in the Eschengrundmoos Nature Reserve. The pond impounds the Zartenbach which flows through it from west-southwest to east-northeast. The stream rises on the eastern slopes of the Ramselehöhe at about, picks up the Eschengrundmoosbach from the right from the protected bog and runs for less than a kilometre before entering the lake. A shorter stream runs from the north from the woods of the Stuckwald. It has a catchment of 1.0 km</p><br>
<p>The lake is accessible from Hinterzarten but only on foot. A path runs from the village passing close to the lake and a spur branches off to the east shore.</p><br>
<p>Together with the Mathislehof, Mathislemühle and Mathislewald the pond belongs to the Müller-Fahnenberg Foundation of the University of Freiburg.</p><br>
<h2>Origin of the name</h2><br>
<p>The Mathisleweiher s named after the nearby farm of Mathislehof, which in turn is named after the farmer, Mathias Rombach, who inherited the farm in 1736 by marrying the widow.</p><br>
<p>The First Lutheran Church of the Reformation is a historic church at 77 Franklin Square in New Britain, Connecticut. The congregation was founded in 1885 and the current church building was constructed 1903-07. The building, a fine local example of Late Gothic Revival architecture, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture and history</h2><br>
<p>The First Lutheran Church of the Reformation standsin downtown New Britain, on the west side of Franklin Square near its northern end. It is a large stone structure, built out of granite and adorned with Gothic features. It is symmetrical, with a pair of square four-stage towers rising to pinnacles on either side of the front facade; the original steeples were removed after one was struck by lightning. The tower corners are buttressed, and the side window bays are articulated by buttresses. Windows are generally lancet-arched in the Gothic style. At the center of the main facade is a large rose window set in a recessed lancet-arched panel.</p><br>
<p>New Britain saw a large influx of immigrants from northern Europe in the second half of the 19th century. Both Germans and Swedes settled in the city in large numbers, bringing their Lutheran faith with them. The First Lutheran Church of the Reformation was formally organized in the 1880s, when its first building was erected. The present building was constructed in 1903-07 to provide space for its rapidly growing congregation. It was designed by William Caldwell, with later additions in the 20th century by Walter Crabtree.</p><br>

<p>Pathaha Pokuna is an ancient bathing tank or pool situated in Udugampola, Sri Lanka. It is located approximately 0.45 km from Udugampola Roundabout and close to the historic temple Uththararama Purana Vihara. The pond has been formally recognised by the Government as an archaeological protected monument in Sri Lanka. The designation was declared on 8 July 2005 under the government Gazette number 1401.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The information found in Rajaveliya and Alakeshwara Yuddhaya reveals that Udugampola and its surrounding area was a sub kingdom during the Kotte period. King Sakalakala Wallabha, one of three sons of King Parakramabahu VIII reign this region as a viceroy while his eldest brother King Parakramabahu IX reign the Kingdom of Kotte. The third son, King Thaniya Wallabha reign in Madampe area. According to the archaeological evidences found around the area called Maliga godella where the Udugampola Uththararama temple stands today is supposed to be place where the palace of King Sakala Kala Wallabha was situated. The Pathaha Pokuna adjoining the Uththararama temple has been identified as the bathing pool of the king.</p><br>
<h2>Folklore</h2><br>
<p>King Sakalakala Wallabha is identified as a brilliant warrior in Kotta era. Being a popular king among the regional people, his reigning period and the transition of the throne was longed. Due to that his two of seven sons, prince Kalu Kumara Bandara and Veeramunda planned to kill their father by planting pointed wood with metal tips hidden under the water of Pathaha pond where the king used to bathe. But before jumping onto the points the king observed small flying insects landing on the water surface. Upon further scrutiny the king found the insects were landing on the points. Understanding the situation the king ordered the killing of his sons. But Kalu Kumara Bandara escaped and vanished to Sri Pada area and later committed suicide by jumping off a cliff. It is believed that he became a supernatural called "Kalu Kumaraya".</p><br>
<h2>The pond</h2><br>
<p>Pathaha Pokuna at Udugampola is said to be one of largest bathing pools found in Asia. Built in the shape of English letter "L", the pond is considered as an excellent construction belonging to the Udugampola principality. Its total extent is 25,805 square feet. The walls of the pond has been made of laterite with short juts protruding outwards from the bottom to the top. The laterite blocks used in the construction of the pond are vary in size but have been fitted nicely. The bunds of the south and the east banks of the pond are made of laterite blocks in a systematic manner while there is no evidence of the use of laterite for the portion of the bank extending about 122 meters to the north south direction.</p><br>
<p>The John Fuller House is a historic house at 463 Halladay Avenue in Suffield, Connecticut. Built in 1824, it was the main house for Suffield&#39;s town farm, its facility for supporting the poor and needy, between 1887 and 1952. It is a well-preserved example of Georgian architecture, then long out of fashion. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The John Fuller House is located in a rural area of central northern Suffield, on the west side of Halladay Avenue north of its junction with Blossom Street. It is a 2-1/2 story brick structure, with a side gable roof oriented perpendicular to the street. The main entrance is in the short street-facing facade, in the center-left bay of four. It is recessed within an opening with a rounded top, which is filled with a fanlight panel. A similar panel is found at the center of the gable above. The interior of the house has two rooms in the front, with a nearly straight-run staircase on the far right. Behind these is a single large chamber, original two that were combined by the removal of an intervening wall. Behind this is a narrow chamber running the width of the building, apparently originally used for storage. The second story roughly follows the downstairs plan. The interior retains original woodwork and some plaster.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1824 by George Fuller. It remained in the family until 1887, when it and the surrounding farmland were purchased by the town as a place to house its indigent population. The town had been incurring expenses since 1868 to care for the needy, and this purchase was apparently seen as a long-term cost reduction measure. Use of the farm declined beginning in the 1920s, and with expenses mounting, the town sold the property back into private ownership in 1952.</p><br>
<p>The Cedar Glen Apartments are a historic apartment building located in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. Designed by prominent local architect Samuel H. Weis and completed in 1927, the building originally contained luxury apartments and served as a gateway to the more exclusive neighborhood of Cleveland Heights, on whose border the building is located. Threatened with demolition in 1992, the building was purchased by new owners and converted into condominiums.</p><br>
<p>The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places on June 17, 1994.</p><br>
<h2>Development of Cedar Glen</h2><br>
<h3>Geography of Cedar Glen and the Quarry Railroad</h3><br>
<p>The city of Cleveland lies on the shore of Lake Erie on the Erie Plain. Just a few miles inland is the Portage Escarpment, which separates the Erie Plain from the Appalachian Plateau. The Portage Escarpment also defines the political geography of Cleveland and its eastern suburbs, and acts as both the legal and natural boundary between Cleveland and the city of Cleveland Heights, Ohio. In part, two ravines provided natural access to the heights atop the escarpment. One was the Doan Brook ravine, which today is encompassed by Ambler Park. Cedar Brook emptied into Doan Brook at the base of the hill. Nearby, a natural mineral spring known as Blue Rock Springs bubbled up from the ground.</p><br>
<p>From the beginning of white settlement of the area until about 1890, the area atop the escarpment (which would later become East Cleveland Township in 1847 and Cleveland Heights in 1901) was only very sparsely settled. Scattered on the edge of the escarpment were dairies, farms, orchards, and vineyards. For much of this period, only a narrow, ill-repaired dirt road ran through Cedar Glen. Beginning in the early 1800s, several Euclid bluestone quarries operated atop the escarpment. In 1834, a narrow-gauge railway, the Quarry Railroad, was built from Public Square to E. 101st Street along Chester Avenue, and then along what is now Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue to Cedar Glen Parkway and up Cedar Hill to the quarries above. The railroad failed in 1849.</p><br>
<h3>Early developments atop Cedar Glen</h3><br>
<p>In 1869, a group of Cleveland businessmen pooled their resources to create the 285 acre Lake View Cemetery straddling the Cleveland-Cleveland Heights border about 0.5 mi northwest of Cedar Glen. In 1873, John D. Rockefeller purchased 103 acre of land (bounded by Euclid Avenue, Lee Road, and Superior Avenue) northeast and adjacent to the cemetery. In June 1874, Rockefeller sold 10 acre on a hill off Forest Hills Blvd. (now Sled Hill in Forest Hill Park) to Marcus and Mary Montgomery. At a mineral spring atop the hill, the Montgomerys constructed a hotel and advertised the spring as a cure for various illnesses. Rockefeller bought back the property in 1877, and turned the hotel into his summer residence.</p><br>
<p>In 1880, Dr. Nathan Hardy Ambler and his adopted son and business partner, Daniel O. Caswell, a water cure resort hotel and sanitarium at the foot of Cedar Glen. The Blue Rock Spring House remained open until 1908. The resort proved so popular that in 1884 the Cleveland Railway Company built an electric streetcar line on Cedar Avenue. Known as the Cedar Avenue Line, this streetcar ran from E. 22nd Street to the foot of Cedar Glen.</p><br>
<h3>Euclid Heights and streetcar lines</h3><br>
<p>In 1890, Patrick Calhoun purchased 300 acre of wooded land atop Cedar Hill north of Cedar Road. He began development of a planned community for the wealthy and upper classes, calling it Euclid Heights. The same year, brothers Edmund and William Walton began laying out another development, Cedar Heights, along Bellfield and Grandview Avenues on the south side of Cedar Road. Calhoun and his business partner, John Hartness Brown, realized that their development would not be a success unless there was a way other than dirt roads to ascend the heights. Walking the heights, the two concluded that an electric streetcar up Cedar Glen was the best option. In 1896, Calhoun donated all his property from Euclid Avenue to the foot of Cedar Hill, and on both sides of the ravine of Cedar Glen, to the city of Cleveland and to Cleveland Metroparks. In exchange, Calhoun was given the authority to construct a double-track streetcar line up Cedar Glen. That same year, the Cleveland Railway Company extended its Euclid Avenue Line along Stearns Road to Cedar Glen, up the hill to Euclid Heights Blvd., and then along the boulevard to Coventry Road to serve Calhoun&#39;s Euclid Heights development. By 1900, the Cedar Avenue Line streetcar had made Euclid Heights a major development.</p><br>
<p>Work began in 1897 to turn the rutted dirt road ascending Cedar Glen into a wide, modern parkway. Named Cedar Glen Parkway for the ravine through which it ran, the road (several hundred feet wide and 0.5 mi long) neared completion at the end of 1898.</p><br>
<p>In 1903, construction began on the Ambler Heights development. Located adjacent to and west of Cedar Heights, the development was named for Dr. Nathan Hardy Ambler (who owned most of the land). Ambler Heights was laid out and promoted by Daniel O. Caswell and Ambler&#39;s nephew, William Eglin Ambler, Sales never took off, and the site was replatted in 1900.</p><br>
<p>In 1906, the Cleveland and Eastern Railway Company gained trackage rights to run its interurban railway through Cedar Glen. The line, which had fully opened in 1899, followed Cedar Glen Parkway to Euclid Heights Blvd. and then to Chardon, Ohio. The following year, the Cleveland Railway Company created a branch line which began at the top of Cedar Glen and ran down Cedar Road and to Fairmount Blvd. to Lee Road.</p><br>
<p>By 1920, Cedar Glen Parkway was clogged with automobile traffic. In 1925, the Cleveland Railway Company created a third branch line at the top of Cedar Glen, building it along Cedar Road to Coventry Road.</p><br>
<p>The parkway and extensive streetcar service made Cedar Glen a major gateway between Cleveland and Cleveland Heights.</p><br>
<h2>Cedar Glen Apartments</h2><br>
<h3>Construction of the building</h3><br>
<p>Despite the extensive development on the east (Cleveland Heights) side of Ambleside Drive, by 1910 no development had occurred in the area west of it (within the city of Cleveland). The first development here, Ambleside Apartments (now the University Manor skilled nursing facility), began construction in 1913 and was completed in 1914. It was an inexpensive, $50,000 ($ in dollars), four-story, 16-unit apartment building designed by local architect Theodore Conner.</p><br>
<p>In 1925, planning began on the Cedar Glen Apartments at 11424-11432 Cedar Glen Parkway. Owned and designed by prominent local architect Samuel E. Weis ( Samuel E. White), it was one of the first apartment buildings to be erected in Cleveland in several years. to 25 ft above the road. With a then-unobstructed view of the Cleveland Museum of Art, Western Reserve University and Case Institute of Technology, Severance Hall, and University Circle, It was only a short distance south of Cleveland&#39;s Little Italy. The Plain Dealer newspaper called it one of the "most unusual sites" in the city.</p><br>
<p>The building had a 335 ft frontage on Cedar Glen Parkway, a 200 ft frontage on Ambleside Drive. 40-car garage with internal staircases (so patrons did not have to exit the garage to reach the interior of the building).</p><br>
<p>As originally constructed, the Cedar Glen Apartments had 27 units ranging in size from four to eight rooms, Intended as a luxury apartment,</p><br>
<p>The final cost of the Cedar Glen Apartments was $650,000 ($ in dollars), slightly higher than its projected cost of $600,000 ($ in dollars), and the building was completed in July 1927.</p><br>
<h3>History of the building</h3><br>
<p>A wide range of wealthy and upper-middle class attorneys, businesspeople, civic leaders, educators, elected officials, government officials, physicians, and others took up residence in the Cedar Glen Apartments after they opened, making it one of Cleveland&#39;s most sought-after addresses. It was widely considered a Cleveland landmark due to its location, the notability of its residents, its very spacious apartments, and its architectural design. The Cedar Glen Apartments epitomized apartment living and design for the period 1910 to 1930. Just over 50 percent of all Americans lived in apartments in the 1920s, and apartments were seen as equivalent to homes: Spacious, comfortable, and with numerous amenities. Wealthy Americans expected even more from their apartments, and Cedar Glen was designed to accommodate their desires. By 1960, however, just 38 percent of all Americans lived in apartments, and apartment shifted from 1940 to 1960 by shifting to a "shoebox" design that emphasized inexpensive rent, small spaces, and fewer rooms.</p><br>
<p>In 1931, the cities of Cleveland and Cleveland Heights significantly widened Cedar Glen Parkway, bringing traffic and associated noise much closed to Cedar Glen Apartments. The two cities constructed high stone retaining walls on either side of the parkway to hold the hills in place. The Cedar Glen Apartments were sold in December 1931 to the George M.

<p>The Cleveland Transit System, which operated bus, streetcar, and trackless trolley buses in the city of Cleveland, proposed an RTA Rapid Transit station at the foot of Cedar Hill in 1947. Station plans were proposed in January 1952, and approved two months later. Construction on the station began in May 1954, and it opened on March 15, 1955. The new station was a three-minute walk from the Cedar Glen Apartments.</p><br>
<p>In 1951, the Cedar Glen Apartments were acquired by two investors, T.W. Grogan (head of the T.W. Grogan Co., a local construction firm) and R.R. Hollington (of the Marshman, Hollington & Steadman law firm). No purchase price was reported.</p><br>
<p>A major fire struck the building on February 27, 1956. The blaze erupted in the kitchen on the first floor of the empty penthouse at 10 P.M., and spread to the second floor. Although the fire was contained by 1 A.M., it continued to burn until daylight as firefighters had difficulty accessing the walls and ceilings due to the building&#39;s exceptionally strong design. Heavy water and smoke caused $150,000 ($ in dollars) in damages to central tower.</p><br>
<p>The Cedar Glen Apartments were sold again in October 1960. Otto and Vilma Psenicka (west side home builders) purchased the structure from Grogan and Hollington for $400,000 ($ in dollars). The Psenickas significantly renovated the building the following year.</p><br>
<h3>Condominium conversion</h3><br>
<p>By the 1980s, the Cedar Glen Apartments had lost much of their social cachet. The building was in disrepair due to wear and tear and years of deferred maintenance.</p><br>
<p>In 1991, the Judson Park retirement community (located across Ambleside Drive) purchased the Cedar Glen Apartments with the intent of razing the structure so that it could build a parking garage on the site. Residents of the Cedar Glen Apartments organized to opposed the demolition, proposing to buy the building themselves and renovate it. Financing for that plan did not materialize. In the summer of 1993, Judson Park agreed to sell the Cedar Glen Apartments to the local law firm of Climaco Seminatore Lefkowitz & Garofoli for $1.2 million ($ in dollars) and title to the Trigve-Hoff Building at E. 107th Street and Chester Avenue. The new owners planned to convert the building to condominiums. Sale of the building required making several emergency repairs to shore it up, which were financed in part by a $200,000 ($ in dollars) grant from the Cleveland Division of Economic Development. City officials estimated, however, that another $1.5 million ($ in dollars) in repairs and renovations would still be needed. To help the new owners secure historic tax credits to pay for the repairs, the city of Cleveland designated Cedar Glen Apartments a Cleveland Landmark, and the building owners sought and won designation of the structure as a National Historic site.</p><br>
<p>The renovation and repair of the building, which topped $3.5 million ($ in dollars), merged three apartments, leaving the structure with 27 condominium units with one to four bedrooms each. Each condo unit was renovated one at a time, with buyers offered various packages of improvements to choose from. Cleveland Public Power designed and implemented the building&#39;s interior and exterior lighting schemes.</p><br>
<p>In July 1995, the Cleveland Restoration Society honored Cedar Glen residents Michael and Debbie May for their campaign to save the historic structure, and in negotiating its sale to the Climaco law firm.</p><br>

<p>The Garvan-Carroll Historic District encompasses a primarily residential area near the center of East Hartford, Connecticut. Located just southwest of its Main Street downtown on South Prospect and Garvan Streets, and Carroll and Tower Roads, this area retains a high concentration of residential architecture built mainly between 1890 and the 1920s. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>East Hartford was for much of the 19th century a largely agricultural community, with some industry powered by the Hockanum River. Improving transportation networks led to its development as a residential suburb of Hartford, located just across the Connecticut River to the west. In 1892 trolley service was inaugurated between to the two communities. Businessman Patrick Garvan sensed a development opportunity, and bought a parcel of farmland, which he subdivided to build housing for local businesspeople and commuters to Hartford. He laid out Garvan Street, which was the first street in the district to be developed. Chapel Street, South Prospect, and Carroll and Tower Roads followed in the early decades of the 20th century, developed in part by Garvan and in part by the Carrolls, builders who were related to his wife.</p><br>
<p>The historic district is broadly bounded on the east by Main Street, the south by Interstate 84, the west by the highway&#39;s Governor Street exit ramps, and the north by Connecticut Boulevard. It includes no buildings on these streets, including only the densely built one and two-family houses contained on the streets within those bounds. The houses are mainly of wood frame construction, and are in a diversity of styles, ranging from the Queen Anne to the Craftsman and American Foursquare. Houses are generally placed at uniform setbacks on each street, although lot widths and depths sometimes vary. Many houses have early garages or carriage houses, a nod to the increasing importance of the automobile in the years after they were built.</p><br>

<p>The tower survives from the 14th century, however much of the rest of the building was rebuilt in the 15th and underwent Victorian restoration around 1855.</p><br>
<p>The parish, with about 60 people, is part of the Trull with Angersleigh benefice within the Diocese of Bath and Wells.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The church consists of a three-bay nave and chancel. The south porch has been converted into a vestry and the north chapel into an organ bay. The crenellated two stage west tower is supported by diagonal buttresses. The oldest of the five bells in the tower dates back to around 1450.</p><br>

<p>The Gilman-Hayden House is a historic house at 1871 Main Street in East Hartford, Connecticut. Built in 1784, it is a good local example of Georgian architecture, and is also notable as the home of Edward Hayden, a diarist of the American Civil War. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Gilman-Hayden House is located on a rural-residential stretch of East Hartford&#39;s Main Street, between Gilman and King Streets. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a side gable roof and clapboarded exterior. Its main facade faces east and is five bays wide, with a center entrance sheltered by a gabled portico. A two-story ell extends to the rear, and an enclosed porch projects to the south. The interior of the house follows a typical center-hall plan, with two rooms on either side of the hall on both floors. The interior retains many original period features, including bead-board paneling, built-in cupboards, and wrought iron hardware. The two front parlor spaces feature fine fireplace surrounds.</p><br>
<p>The house was built in 1784 by George Gilman, a descendant of some of the area&#39;s earliest settlers. The Gilmans originally owned land all the way to the Connecticut River, and operated a ferry. In the second quarter of the 19th century the property came into the hands of the Williams family, whose most famous member was William Williams, a signatory of the United States Declaration of Independence. In 1867, the house was purchased by Edward Hayden, whose mother was a Williams. Hayden is most notable for the unique diary he kept of his experiences during and after the American Civil War. One portion of the diary was written on a similary diary Hayden recovered from a Confederate Army soldier, and provides a unique window into the affairs of the war.</p><br>
<p>The Philip A. Wolff House and Carriage House, also known as Belmont Hill, is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. An Ohio native, Wolff lived in several states and the West Indes before settling in Maquoketa, Iowa. He moved to Cedar Rapids where he established a brickworks with his son. Wolff had this two-story vernacular Italianate house and accompanying carriage house built in 1883 with bricks made at his business, which was on the same grounds. At the time it was built, the house was located in a suburban area of Cedar Rapids. This was during a period of economic growth for the city. The house features paired brackets under the eaves, the windows have brick arches above and limestone sills, a three-sided, two-story bay, and a projecting center pavilion. The carriage house is architecturaly similar to the main house. They were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>The Taylor-Van Note House, also known as Blairs Ferry Wayside Inn/Vanesther Place, is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. Charles Taylor had this two-story, wood frame, vernacular Greek Revival house built in 1846. The family owned the house until 1888 when it was sold to Lazarus Van Note, whose family owned it as late as 1985. Oral legend has it that Taylor rented the front rooms to travelers as they passed through the region. It was located close to James Blair&#39;s ferry across the Cedar River, which is why it has long been known as the Blairs Ferry Wayside Inn. The house was built of heavy timbers and exemplifies a tradional I-house. It features two rooms on both floors across its length, and one room deep. The main door is flanked by sidelights and a transom across the top. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Highwater Rock is located in the Cedar River near downtown Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. It is a large granite boulder in the rapids in the eastern half of the river. Its height depends on the river level. It can be 3 ft to 4 ft above the water level in low water, or submerged in high water. It was used to gauge the river depth from the 1840&#39;s to the close of river navigation in the mid-1860s. In the early days, people could cross the river at the rapids on horseback, on foot, or by wagon and buggy. They would use the rock to determine if it was safe for them to cross. After David W. King began ferry service in 1848 and a toll bridge was built, people would use the rock to determine if the water was low enough to cross the river and avoid paying the tolls. King would use the rock to determine the amount of cargo he could carry or if he could run the ferry at all. After steam navigation was established on the river the steamer pilots would use the rock to determine if they could continue past the rapids. Railroads severely curtailed the use of steamboats on the Cedar River, and in 1870 the United States Congress declared the river was not navigable above Columbus Junction, which is well below Cedar Rapids. This put an end to water transportation on this part of the river, and the usefulness of the rock. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.</p><br>
<p>The William and Julia Lyman House in Parowan, Utah was constructed in c. 1895. Constructed by William and Julia Lyman, the house is common for an eighteenth-century American building construction. It is one of the few remaining houses of its kind in Parowan.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.</p><br>

She was also elected to the school board and actively rallied for woman suffrage and Utah statehood.</p><br>
<p>Cagbalete is an island off the east coast of Luzon, Philippines on Lamon Bay. It is part of Quezon Province and administered by the municipality of Mauban.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 11 February 1859, three Pansacola brothers namely Benedicto, Jose, and Manuel purchased the island from the Spanish government. Then, in 11 April 1868, the brothers agreed to give a quarter of the island to the children of their deceased brother, Eustaquio. Since no actual measurements on how the island would be divided at the time, disputes came in later years. As of a Philippine Supreme Court Decision dated 1 December 1987, all titles on the island have been declared invalid.</p><br>
<p>Cagbalete Island now hosts two barangays, namely Barangay Cagbalete Uno and Barangay Cagabelete Dos. The land originally owned by Benedicto Pansacola and the descendants of Eustaquio Pansacola comprise the first barangay. The second barangay comprises the land originally owned by Jose Pansacola and Manuel Pansacola.</p><br>
<p>Many of the beach resorts in the island are named after the direct descendants of Benedicto Pansacola, who had one child named Atanacia who later became known as Atanacia Villabona. She had two daughters: Leonila and Maria. Nilandingan Cove is owned by Lynette Del Banco, who is a descendant of Leonila and Remigio Del Banco. Maria, who married Silverio Taino, has children named Choleng (Dona Choleng Camping Resort), Noe (Villa Noe), Joven (Joven’s Blue Sea), and Cleofas (Villa Cleofas). Three of the members of the Pansacola family have served as municipal mayors of Mauban, Quezon. They are Remigio Del Banco (husband of Leonila Villabona-Del Banco), Silverio Taino (husband of Maria Villabona-Taino), and Amado Clemente (husband of Socorro Taino-Clemente and son-in-law of Silverio Taino).</p><br>
<p>The Thomas A. Lemoine House, on Louisiana Highway 451 in Hamburg, Louisiana was built in 1885. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<p>It is a one-and-a-half-story wood frame Italianate cottage with a pitched roof which has also been known as Mayfield. It was built by Thomas A. Lemoine. It has a five-bay Italianate-style front gallery. The house was moved about 100 yd in 1912 and then lost its hip roof and cupola, besides losing some elevation off the ground. It was moved again in 1978, by 2 mi from Moreauville to Hamburg, when facing demolition.</p><br>
<p>One reason for its notability is its interior which includes a painted ceiling, which is a generally rare feature in Louisiana, although there were in fact three other houses with them in the parish surviving in 1985. The ceiling was said by tradition to have been painted by an Ursuline nun.</p><br>

<p>The Palace of Seyid Mirbabayev is a palace in Azneft Square, Baku, Azerbaijan. It was owned by Seyid Mirbabayev, a singer who became one of the oil millionaires of Azerbaijan. The building was built in the style of French Renaissance architecture based on the architect Pavel Stern&#39;s project. The plasticity of the facade, the shape of the architectural detail, the individuality of the stone procession, the building culture have shaped the aesthetic environment in the image of the building.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1893, the building attracted the attention of Seyid Mirbabayev, a newly-became rich Azerbaijani singer. Mirbabayev adressed Zeynalabdin Taghiyev for advice, and Taghiyev advised him to buy the palace and divide it into apartments for earning money. Then, Taghiyev wrote a letter of recommendation to Aramyan to help Mirbabayev buy the house. Aramyan sells the building at a cheaper price than previously planned. Since that time, the building is known among the local population as the house of Mirbabayev. The British Consulate was located on the first floor of the building during the Democratic Republic of Azerbaijan.</p><br>
<p>After the establishment of the Soviet power in Azerbaijan, Bolsheviks confiscated all the property of Seyid Mirbabayev. A millionaire himself must emigrate to France. After a while, the money that he brought with him ends, and Mirbabayev had to live on Paris streets for a while in a miserable way.</p><br>
<p>During the Soviet era, at the disposal of Azneft, after the independence of Azerbaijan (1991), the State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) was placed. In the 1990s, light reinstatement work was carried out in the building.</p><br>
<h2>Owner</h2><br>
<p>Among people the palace is known as Seyid Mirbabayevs house. The singer was one of the stars of Baku weddings. The singing in a millionaire Shikhbalayevs only sons wedding changed the life of the singer.The grooms uncle gifted a land plot to the singer and after a while in this place the oil fountain appeared and Seyid Mirbabayev became a millionaire. Mirbabayev, who moved to Paris after the Baku operation, was in a miserable position in this city. Meanwhile, Teymur bey Ashurbeyov from the Ashurbeyovs&#39; family met with the khanende and brought him to Tehran.Seyid Mirbabayev lived under the protection of Ashurbeyov in this city until his death.</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>The Niyazi (formerly Sadovaya) street, where the palace is located, was complementing the central part of the city, starting with Azneft Square. This street is also part of the circular highway around Icheri Sheher. The building were lying to the side of Bayil from this square.From the middle of the 19th century, the square was gradually changing. These changes accelerated after the construction of a three-storied palace on the basis of the architect Pavel Stern&#39;s project in the early 1890s, in the area called the Kokorevskiy area, one of the main parts of the square.</p><br>
<h2>Architectural features</h2><br>
<p>The building was built in the style of French Renaissance architecture based on the architect Pavel Stern&#39;s project. The main facade of the building looks to the western side of the Caspian coast.</p><br>
<p>The Michigan Paper Company Mill Historic District, also known as the Plainwell Paper Company Complex, is a complex of industrial buildings located at 200 Allegan Street in Plainwell, Michigan. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The first paper mill established in the southwest Michigan region was the Kalamazoo Paper Company, which was constructed on Portage Creek in Kalamazoo in 1867 by Benjamin F. Lyon, an experienced paper mill operator from Fitchburg, Massachusetts. Although this business was ultimately unsuccessful, Lyon persevered, and in 1872 formed a partnership with Hale W. Page, another Fitchburg paper mill operator. The two constructed another mill near downtown Plainwell, which had just recently been connected to the Michigan Central Railroad. In 1887, Page formed another partnership with local Plainwell businessmen, and founded the Michigan Paper Company. They constructed a paper mill on this site, next to Lyon&#39;s 1872 mill.</p><br>
<p>The Michigan Paper Company was an immediate success, and in 1890 they purchased the B. F. Lyon & Co. Mill, which had ceased production only three years earlier. In 1906, the company massively expanded their factory complex, engaging architect Daniel J. Albertson to design a complete new mill. Albertson designed eight new buildings for the site, allowing the paper making process to operate much like the assembly line in an auto factory. The company continued to thrive, and in 1910 expanded again, constructing a new office building and another set of buildings which mirrored the 1906 expansion, giving the company two separate production lines.</p><br>
<p>In 1927, Michigan Paper purchased a paper coating company in Kalamazoo, and in 1940 moved the coating machinery to the Plainwell plant. In 1954, W.C. Hamilton and Sons purchased the outstanding stocks, and the business became a wholly owned subsidiary of the national corporation of Hamilton Paper. Michigan Paper began to compete as a niche paper manufacturer, and at the same time demolished its office building and constructed a new one. In 1961, Weyerhaeuser purchased the company, and in 1970 it was sold to Philip Morris, who renamed it the Plainwell Paper Company and continued to remodel the complex.</p><br>
<p>The company was sold multiple times in the 1980s, and was eventually included as an EPA superfund site. The mill was eventually decommissioned in 2000, and in 2006 sold to the city of Plainwell. Preliminary environmental cleanup took place in 2007.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Michigan Paper Company Mill Historic District over a dozen two- and three-story industrial brick buildings, along with a brick and terra cotta block power house, some corrugated steel warehouses and metal structures, water towers, storage tanks, and rail spurs. The structures in the complex structures date from 1887 to 1995.</p><br>
<p>The original 1887 mill was an L-shaped building, consisting of a one-story machine room measuring 32 feet by 130 feet and a two-story main building measuring 46 feet by 98 feet. The machine room was demolished in 1906, but the main building remains. It was converted into offices in 1975, and is now designated as building 19 and 20.</p><br>
<p>Most of the 1906 and 1910 buildings remain on the site. These include the first machine room (building 10), the beater room (building 11), finishing room (building 16), stock house (building 17) chemical and duster room (building 18), and the finishing room (building 15), all constructed in 1906. The finishing room was substantially modified in 1953. 1910 buildings include the second stock house (building 1), second cooker room (building 2), second beater room (building 3), second boiler house (building 6), and the second machine room (building 9). A handful of other buildings were constructed in the 1930s and 1940s.</p><br>
<p>Saganashkee Slough is a 377-acre, manmade riparian lake that forms part of the valley of the Cal-Sag Channel. It is located in the Palos Forest Preserves of Cook County, Illinois, on wetland that was drained but was later reverted to a lake starting in 1948-1949 by the construction of dams and levees. Saganashkee Slough, like other segments of the Cal-Sag canal and valley system, drains into the Des Plaines River and ultimately into the Illinois River.</p><br>
<h2>Backwater lake and fish</h2><br>
<p>Like other backwater lakes in the Palos Forest Preserve system, the Saganashkee Slough is noted for birdwatching and fish. The Forest Preserve District of Cook County states that loons, herons, grebes, mergansers, and many other types of waterfowl have been seen at or flying over the slough. Fish listed by the Forest Preserve District include the bullhead, crappie, various types of catfish, largemouth bass, yellow bass, and northern pike.</p><br>
<p>The Laura Musser McColm Historic District, also known as the Muscatine Art Center, is a nationally recognized historic district located in Muscatine, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. Contributing properties include the 1908 residence, the carriage house from the 1920s, and the Japanese garden that was installed in 1929.

It contains 12 rooms that flank large corridors on both floors. After Edwins death in 1933 Laura married William T. Atkins in 1938 and resided at his home in Kansas City, Missouri. She retained ownership of this house, and visited frequently, until her death in 1964. The following year her heirs donated the estate to the art museum along with a $100,000 endowment to maintain the house. A $1.5 million renovation of the facility was completed in 2017.</p><br>
<p>The Gridley-Parson-Staples House is a historic house museum at 1554 Farmington Avenue in Farmington, Connecticut. Probably built about 1760, it is the oldest surviving house in northwestern Farmington, and a fine example of 18th century Georgian architecture. It is now home to the Farmington Historical Society, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Gridley-Parson-Staples House is located on the east side of Farmington Avenue (Connecticut Route 4) amid a cluster of municipal buildings, including the town hall, public library, and high school. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a side gable roof, two interior brick chimneys, and a clapboarded exterior. The main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance sheltered by a Colonial Revival flat-roof portico supported by Doric columns. Above the entrance is a three-part Palladian style window with narrow side windows; the other windows on the facade are standard 6-over-6 sash. A 1-1/2 story ell, possibly of older construction, extends to the rear. The interior of the house follows a center-hall plan, with an unusually wide central hall, and an enclosed stair. The downstairs fireplace surrounds exhibit particularly fine 18th-century carving.</p><br>
<p>The construction date of the house and the rear ell are uncertain, owing to a lack of documentary record and conflicting architectural evidence. Construction of the rear ell is traditionally given as 1732, when Thomas Hurlburt owned this property, but it appears to have been extensively altered around 1760, when the main house was probably built by Elnathan Gridley. A house is documented as appearing here on a 1759 map, and the house was likely near its present form in 1781, when Elnathan Gridley&#39;s estate was inventoried. The property associated with the house originally extended all the way down to the Farmington River (across Farmington Avenue). The house underwent a major restoration in 1976, and now houses museum displays and offices of the historical society.</p><br>
<p>Deep Creek Falls is a waterfall formed along Gibson Canyon on the south end of Warner Valley, east side of the city of Lakeview in Lake County, Oregon. Access to Deep Creek Falls is located along Oregon Route 140 through unmarked paths that lead down to the stream and the base of the waterfall.</p><br>
<p>The falls are a barrier to upstream migration of some fish species. For example, the Warner sucker is only found downstream from the falls while the falls divide the creek&#39;s native redband trout into two distinct populations, one above the falls and another below. However, the falls do not appear to be a barrier for brook trout or hatchery fish released in Deep Creek.</p><br>
<p>The lower portion of Deep Creek follows Oregon Route 140. The falls are a common recreational stop for travelers along the highway. Travellers often pull off the highway near the falls to stretch or fish. Deep Creek Falls are also a popular stop along the Oregon Outback Scenic Bikeway, which follows Route 140 along the section that passes the falls.</p><br>
<p>The steep cliffs that flank the falls are good habitat for cliff swallows, falcons, and eagles.</p><br>
<p>The Isla de Isabel II , is an island located in the Chafarinas Islands archipelago, in the Mediterranean Sea. The island belongs to Spain, even though it is only 4 km away from the Moroccan shore. Its area is 0.153 km , and there is a military base and a church. The name of the island comes from the Spanish queen Isabel II.</p><br>
<p>The island is the only inhabited island of the three. Although it has a population close to a thousand people, currently it is only a military garrison with personnel from the Ministry of Environment of Spain, as the islands are a National Refuge protected by the wealth of their species natural.</p><br>
<p>During the summer months, a group of archaeologists who excavate the Neolithic site discovered on the Island of Congress, called El Zafrín, from the 5th millennium BC, headed by the Institute of Mediterranean Culture, also live on the island. The site is an open-air town from which several thousand ceramic fragments of cardial type have been obtained.</p><br>
<p>The Lattner Auditorium Building is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. Paul Lattner, who owned Cedar Rapids Auto & Supply Company, had this building constructed for his business in 1910. The first floor was an automobile showroom, the second floor was used for auto storage, and the third floor housed a neighborhood dance hall. Because this is an early example of an automobile related business, the dance hall/auditorium may have been included to ensure the building&#39;s economic viability given the nature of the automobile business at that time. Various auto-related buinesses continued to occupy the building until 1935.</p><br>
<p>The dance hall was listed in city directories until 1925. After that the entire building was devoted to commercial space.</p><br>
<p>The Lesinger Block, also known as Little Bohemia, is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. This building was constructed at a time of economic expansion in the city. It is a contemporary of several Italianate commercial blocks that were built downtown. Because of subsequent development in that commercial district those buildings have been replaced with newer structures leaving this building as the best extant example of commercial Italianate in Cedar Rapids. It was constructed by Vaclav Lesinger, an immigrant from Kozlov, Bohemia. He was a tailor by trade and he had this structure built in 1883 to house his tailor shop and a dry goods store. Since 1907 the building has housed a tavern that has served as a social center for the local Bohemian community. Architecturally, the two-story brick structure still retains a good deal of its original wood ornamentation, including the sawtooth frieze above the storefronts and the geometric design in the bracketed cornice.</p><br>
<p>The building was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.</p><br>
<p>Vasona Reservoir is an artificial lake located in Los Gatos, California in the United States. A 152 acre county park surrounds the reservoir and provides limited fishing , picnicking, and informal play activities. Although swimming is not allowed, human-powered boating is permitted in the reservoir.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The reservoir was formed by the Vasona Percolating Dam, built in 1935 across Los Gatos Creek. It is the smallest reservoir owned by the Santa Clara Valley Water District.</p><br>
<p>Albert August Vollmer, who came to the area in 1887, named the area after a pony he had as a child.</p><br>
<h2>Vasona Dam</h2><br>
<p>Vasona Dam is an earthen dam 34 ft high and 1,000 ft long. Its crest is 307 ft above sea level. New gates were installed in the dam in 1997.</p><br>
<h2>Vasona Lake County Park</h2><br>
<p>Vasona Lake County Park is one of 28 Santa Clara County Parks. The 152 acre park surrounds the reservoir, with Oak Meadow Park adjacent to the west. The reservoir offers fishing for black bass, crappie, catfish and bluegill.</p><br>
<p>The Hart&#39;s Corner Historic District encompasses a microcosm of 19th-century agricultural history in southeastern Burlington, Connecticut. Set at the corner of Stafford and Monce Roads are three farmsteads, dating in age from the 1790s to 1874, all of which are well-preserved specimens of their style. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Land in the Harts Corner area was first allocated in the 18th-century colonial period to the Reverend Samuel Newell (father to same-named American missionary). Newells daughters inherited that land, and sold it in the 1790s to Israel Barnes. Barnes built the oldest house at the corner before 1795, when he sold it to David Norton. Norton divided his land, selling the half across Stafford Street to his son Franklin, who built the Greek Revival house at 102 Stafford Street around 1850. Sylvester Hart married David Norton&#39;s daughter, and acquired the original farmstead in 1852. His son George Washington Hart built the Italianate farmhouse at 105 Stafford Street. Although modern suburban residential development has encroached on the cluster from the east, and the road intersection was straightened in 1980, the 19th-century character of this corner is still discernible.</p><br>
<p>The old farmstead built by Israel Barnes is a 1-1/2 story Cape style structure located on the west side of the Stafford-Monce Road junction. It is accompanied by a small collection of mainly 19th-century outbuildings, including at least one barn. Sixty acres of former farmland behind the house are also included in the district; these have been donated to a land conservation group. The Franklin Norton House is located at the northeast corner of the junction; it is 2-1/2 stories in height, with aluminum siding, but still exhibits a number of Greek Revival features from its original period of construction. The George Washington Hart House is at the southeast corner.</p><br>
<p>The Hastings Hill Historic District encompasses a rural crossroads settlement of the early 19th century at the junction of Spruce Street, Hill Street, and Russell Avenue in Suffield, Connecticut. The area includes well-preserved examples of 18th and 18th-century domestic architecture, as well as the 1842 First Baptist Church and a district schoolhouse. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>What is now Hill Street in rural central northern Suffield was laid out in 1726 along a north-south ridge, and was historically part of one of the main routes between Windsor, Connecticut and Springfield, Massachusetts. The area developed in part over religious differences: Joseph Hastings began opposing Congregationalist teachings and practices as early as 1740, and was ordained a Baptist minister. Their church, built at Hill and Russell where the present 1842 Greek Revival church now stands, was one of the first Baptist congregations to be established in Connecticut. This became the nexus for a small village, in which the Hastings house (still standing next to the church) served as a tavern for travelers, and a blacksmith and shop were located across the triangular green at the street corner. In the early 20th century a local barn was adapted for use as a summer theater venue, lasting until World War II.</p><br>
<p>The historic district is centered at the junction of Hill Street and Russell Avenue, and extends north and south along Hill Street. The oldest house in the district, 1061 Hill Street, is estimated to date to 1740, and was an early conservation project of Delphina Clark, the first woman admitted to the Yale School of Architecture. That property also includes the tobacco barn that housed the theater, retaining the stage and proscenium arch in its interior. The district&#39;s dominant feature is the 1842 Baptist Church, a fine example Greek Revival architecture. Adjacent to it is the much-altered house of the Hastingses, believed to have been built in the 18th century either by Rev. Joseph Hastings or his son.</p><br>
<p>The Berrien Springs Courthouse is a government building located at the corner of Union and Cass Streets in Berrien Springs, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. It is the oldest courthouse in Michigan. The building today is part of the History Center and Courthouse Square and is operated by the Berrien County Historical Association, and is part of the Old Berrien County Courthouse Complex.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Berrien County was first organized in 1831. However, the location of the county seat was in flux for the first few years, court being held first in Niles and then in St. Joseph. In 1837, it was moved to the more geographically central Berrien Springs. In 1838, Gilbert Button Avery, a local builder, designed this building to house the county court. Builder James Lewis was awarded a contract to erect the building for $2,500; construction was completed in 1839.</p><br>
<p>However, by the 1870s, the courthouse became too small to hold county records, and county residents of the more populous coastal towns grumbled about the poor transportation to Berrien Springs. By the early 1890s, the cities of St. Joseph and Benton Harbor came to an agreement about siting a new courthouse, and a county-wide vote was instituted, with the plan to move the courthouse prevailing. In 1894, the county seat was moved to St. Joseph.</p><br>
<p>The building was sold, and over the next few decades was used as as an armory for the Berrien Springs Light Guard, as a center for community affairs and dancehall, In 1922, the Seventh-day Adventists purchased the building and used it for religious services until 1966. Berrien County re-purchased the building in 1967 and restored the building.</p><br>
<p>Restoration was completed in the 1970s. The building today is part of the History Center ant Courthouse Square and is operated by the Berrien County Historical Association. It is used for plays, concerts, and weddings, and houses exhibits on Berrien County history.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Berrien Springs Courthouse is a frame Greek Revival building on a high brick basement, measuring 41 feet by 61 feet over a high brick basement. The walls are clad with lapped siding; a wide cornice tops all walls and pilasters run up each corner. The gabled roof has a square cupola at the top. The building has a front portico supported by four 20-foot high fluted Doric columns. Ten multi-paned windows, each 15 feet high, line the courtroom.</p><br>
<p>On the interior, the main floor contains the courtroom and an entry foyer. A balcony is built over the courtroom. The basement once housed the law library, the recorders office, and the supervisors room.</p><br>
<p>The Château de Rocheprise is a French chateau, located in Bremur-et-Vaurois, in the French department of Côte-d&#39;Or, on the right bank of the upper valley of the River Seine. Originally built in the mid 16th century, the chateau is an example of revival French Renaissance architecture. It remains in private ownership, and is not open to the public.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Though construction of the chateau began in 1551, Rocheprise has been altered substantially since. The drawbridge tower dates from the sixteenth century, as does the dovecote. However, the main towers were built in circa 1870.</p><br>
<p>The facades, the roof and the dovecote have been listed in the French inventory of historic monuments since 1975.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1940, during the Second World War, German troops destroyed most of the furniture and vandalised the library.</p><br>
<p>Stage 7 of the 2017 Tour de France passed the chateau on 7 July.</p><br>

<p>The Stockmen&#39;s Bank of Martinsdale, at 9 Main St. in Martinsdale in Meagher County, Montana, was built in 1919. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>It was built for the State Bank of Martinsdale, which had been founded in 1909. It operated as State Bank of Martinsdale from 1919 to 1923, when it closed in the post-World War I agricultural depression and banking crisis. Its successor, the Stockmen&#39;s Bank of Martinsdale, survived for 26 years including the 1929 stock market crash and the Great Depression, only to be felled in 1949 upon discovery that its cashier, its single employee, had stolen funds over several years. The fraud began in 1936 and was only discovered when the cashier was out due to an illness in 1949.</p><br>
<p>It is a one-story, approximately 30 x commercial brick and structural clay tile building on a concrete foundation.</p><br>
<p>The Hatheway House, also known as the Phelps-Hatheway House & Garden is a historic house museum at 55 South Main Street in Suffield, Connecticut. The sprawling house has sections built as early as 1732, with significant alterations made in 1795 to a design by Asher Benjamin for Oliver Phelps, a major land speculator. The house provides a window into a wide variety of 18th-century home construction methods. It is now maintained by Connecticut Landmarks, and is open seasonally between May and October. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Hatheway House is located in the village center of Suffield, on the west side of South Main Street, south of its junction with Bridge Street. It is a sprawling multi-section wood frame structure, with a 2-1/2 story five-bay central block flanked on the north by a 2-1/2 story three-bay section and on the left by a 1-1/2 story ell. Each section is covered by gambrel roof and is sheated in wooden clapboards. The center block, built in 1762, has a large central chimney, and its interior is finished with high-quality Georgian woodwork. The southern ell is an older structure with simple finishes, and may date as far back as 1732. The northern addition was added in 1795. The main entrance is at the center of the main block, sheltered by a Doric portico designed by Asher Benjamin and added in 1795. Outbuildings on the property include a carriage house and barn, both 19th-century structures.</p><br>
<p>The main block of the house was built about 1762, probably by Abraham Burbank, and was originally more plainly decorated with a gable roof. Burbanks son Shem sold the house to Oliver Phelps in 1788. Phelps, then already a man of some wealth and sophistication, transformed the house into the mansion it is now. Phelps was a principal in the Phelps and Gorham Purchase of six million acres of land in upstate New York, making him one of the nations largest landowners. Phelps lived here until 1802, when he moved to Canandaigua, New York, to more closely oversee the development and sale of his holdings.</p><br>
<p>The Samuel Hayes II House is a historic house at 67 Barndoor Hill Road in Granby, Connecticut. Probably built in 1769, it is an extremely rare example in the Connecticut River valley of a middle-class colonial house with a hip roof. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Samuel Hayes II House stands in a rural-residential area southwest of Granby&#39;s village center, set well back on the west side of Barndoor Hill Road a short way north of Reed Hill Road. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with a steeply pitched hip roof, central chimney, and clapboarded exterior. The main facade is five bays wide, with the main entrance in the central bay but off-center. The interior of the house has many original features, including wide floorboards, strap hinges on doors, and trim elements. The chimney stack is unusually for the region set at a 45° angle, with a large cooking fireplace in the basement (with arched oven), and fireplace openings facing each of the principal chambers in the main and second floors.</p><br>
<p>The houses exact construction date is not known, but is conjectured to be about 1769. It was built by Samuel Hayes II, a prominent local leader who led militia forces during the French and Indian War. The house bears some similarity of style to another house (extensively altered in the 19th century) built in what is now East Granby in 1769 for one of Hayes officers. These two houses and one other in Windsor are the only known examples of period housing that have steeply pitched hip roofs on what are basically middle-class residences.</p><br>
<p>The Farallones del Citará are situated in the mountains of southweset Antioquia, only miles from the border with neighboring Chocó. The area contains two rivers, the Citará river and the Atrato river.</p><br>
<p>The chain of mountains in the Farallones de Citará are part of a protected forest reserve that comprises more than 75,000 acres of land, including approximately 45,000 virgin forests, 30,000 of which are in a government designated buffer zone to protect from human deforestation. Nonetheless there are also human settlements as well as eco-friendly tourism services in the area.</p><br>
<p>The elevation of the mountains varies, to a maximum of 12,800 feet above sea level. The region has many native bird species, most notably the Chestnut-bellied flowerpiercer and Andean cock-of-the-rock.</p><br>
<p>The Farallones del Citará are found approximately 10 miles southwest of Ciudad Bolívar, Antioquia, and most excursions into the southwestern mountains begin there.</p><br>

<p>The Aage and Kristine Larsen Homestead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. It was deemed significantas a well-preserved example of an early twentieth-century Sheridan County homestead which achieved a measure of success and permanence. The Larsens were among the thousands of settlers who arrived in Sheridan County during the first two decades of the twentieth century, and the homestead they established was initially typical of hundreds of such farms operated during the countys early years of settlement. Most of these early homesteads were either abandoned or merged into larger farm operations, in either case leaving relatively few physical remains. The relative economic success achieved by the Larsens, however, allowed them to expand their farm holdings and increase the number and size of the farms buildings, resulting in the building complex which survives today.</p><br>
<p>The farm was started in 1908 by Aage T. Larsen (1885-1948), who immigrated to the United States from Denmark in 1905. He first built a 12 x shack made of lumber carried by hand from the railroad at Culbertson. Kristine Klies married Aage in 1910. They grew wheat, owned and operated a steam-powered custom threshing unit, and they raised cattle. Aage "was a civic leader in the Dagmar community and served in the Montana state legislature from 1921 to 1923."</p><br>
<p>It was the farming homestead of the Larsen family from 1908 to 1924. The listing included six contributing buildings. These are:</p><br>
<p>a one-and-a-half-story, wood-frame house</p><br>
<p>a one-and-a-half-story gabled barn located about 130 ft away,</p><br>
<p>a shed wing addition to the barn with a further shed-roofed chicken coop off the addition</p><br>
<p>a granary with cupola that appears to have originally been built as a small barn and then was later enlarged</p><br>
<p>a wood-frame garage with two garage door openings (without doors, as of 1992)</p><br>
<p>a livestock shed</p><br>
<p>The property also had two round metal grain bins which are modern and were deemed to be non-contributing.</p><br>
<p>As of 1992 the property was abandoned, as seen in photos taken then and included in its NRHP nomination.</p><br>
<p>The Meeks-Green Farmstead in Parowan, Utah was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994. The listing included four contributing buildings and one contributing structure.</p><br>
<p>Constructed around 1853, the Meeks cabin was constructed after the move of a contingent from Salt Lake City to the newly founded Parowan. Priddy Meeks was one of the towns only two physicians and a member of Parowans first city council. The Meeks cabin served as both an office and storehouse for the physician until a dispute with the other towns doctor led to Meeks departure from Parowan in 1861.</p><br>
<p>The cabin remained in the Meeks family until it was deeded by one of Meeks&#39; children or grandchildren to James Green in June 1904. The farmstead, including the Meeks cabin and other outbuildings, was purchased by the city of Parowan 1990. The focus of the city is to restore and maintain the farm as a preservation of early agricultural life in the area.</p><br>
<p>The Daniel R. and Sophia G. Page House is one of a number of outbuildings on the Page Ranch property in Iron County, Utah. Built in 1900, this two-story house is the primary house on the property and the only building on the property that is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is located on Pinto Road , east of Pinto, Hamblin, and State Route 18.</p><br>
<p>Page Ranch was owned by the Page family since 1858, having been settled by Daniel Page’s grandfather, Robert Richey. The house was designed by then-owners of the Page Ranch property, Daniel Richey Page and Sophia Geary Page. Construction began in 1898 by the builders, Jack and Harvey Fabian, using bricks made on site. The bricks used in construction were made from clay found immediately west of the building’s location. The finished house served as a stopping place for travelers and boarded miners who worked nearby. The Richey and Page families owned the ranch until 1934.</p><br>
<p>The house remains standing as of 2017, but resides unoccupied, with windows and doors having been boarded up.</p><br>
<p>The Jesse N. Smith House, located in Parowan, Utah, is a two-story home that was constructed from June 1856 to March 1858. Jesse N. Smith was asked by church leadership to assist in the settling of Parowan in 1851, where he constructed and lived in the house. The house is constructed from quarried rock, baked adobe, and hewed timber. Originally consisting of four rooms - two upstairs and two downstairs - an addition was later added to the rear of the house that consisted of four additional rooms. It is the oldest adobe structure in the state of Utah.</p><br>
<p>It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975,</p><br>
<p>The house was sold to William Bentley in 1879. The building remained unoccupied for a number of years until it was purchased by the Jesse N. Smith Family Association in 1962. Restoration of the home took place between 1967 and 1969. In 2017, the renovated house exists as a museum for visitors, showcasing the history of Jesse N. Smith and his wives.</p><br>
