<p>It is a two-story 25 ft by 100 ft masonry commercial building built in 1912 and modified at different times, including in 1928. Its ground floor was designed for commercial purposes and its second floor was for a residence.

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1903, William Worth moved to Sarasota from Englewood, Florida and purchased a piece of land on the intersection of Lemon Street and Main Street. William Worth was an early member of the Sarasota community, serving as its first tax collector and the first person to run for the office of mayor, but lost to A.B Edwards in a 108–63 vote. In 1912, Worths son William David Worth bought his fathers business mercantile business and hired his uncle Enoch E. Worth to help him.</p><br>
<p>The Sarasota Times Building is a historic site in Sarasota, Florida. It is located at 1214-1216 1st Street. On March 22, 1984, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. The three-story asymmetrically-massed, stucco and cast stone façade, Mediterranean Revival structure was designed by architect Dwight James Baum. It is significant to Sarasota&#39;s heritage for its role as a newspaper established in 1899, and also for its architectural merits.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The three-story Mediterranean Revival Style structure located at 1214, 1216, and 1218 First Street was designed in 1925 by the architect Dwight James Baum as the headquarters of the Sarasota Times newspaper. By November 1925 the construction firm of Ricketts and Haworth had started work on the foundations of the Sarasota Times Building, but ceased work due to the revision of the original plans for the building. The Times Building was designed in the Mediterranean Revival Style which was in keeping with the other Baum designed projects under construction or planned for the Broadway area including the Burns Realty Company, the El Vernona Hotel (Later called John Ringling Towers, now demolished) and the El Vernona Apartment (Currently called Belle Haven Apartments). The Times Building also abutted the residence of the editor and owner of the paper, L.D. Reagin, whose house was located on North Palm Avenue.</p><br>
<p>The Sarasota Times newspaper, which was purchased by Mr. Reagin in March 1924, was a significant communications force in the development of Sarasota, having been founded in 1899. Formerly located at 241 Main Street, the new site of the plant and offices was indicative of the shift in the commercial development away from lower Main Street.</p><br>
<p>The architect of record, Dwight James Baum, was responsible for many of the most significant buildings constructed in Sarasota in the 1920s including John Ringlings palatial home, the Ca daZan, the Sarasota County Courthouse, and the four Mediterranean Revival Style buildings in the Broadway area. Having traveled in Southern California, Mr. Baum had studied the examples of the Mission Revival Style and the Spanish Colonial Revival Style in California. It was the product of a detailed study of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture made by Bertram Grovesnor Goodhue in Mexico.</p><br>
<p>In 1915, at the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego, Goodhue and Carleton Winslow Sr. designed a complex of buildings that featured the rich architectural variety found in colonial Latin America. Encouraged by the publicity afforded the exposition, other architects began to also look to Spain where they found other interesting building traditions. Many of the California elements Baum studied influenced his designs for Sarasota buildings.</p><br>
<p>In Florida, the Spanish Eclectic style was among the most dominant building styles during the 1920s continued to be built into the 1930s. It was adapted for a variety of building types ranging from grandiose tourist hotels to two room residences. It was so popular that many commercial and residential buildings were renovated in the 1920s to reflect the style. Identifying features of the style include flat (sometimes hip) roofs. Usually with some form of parapet; ceramic tile roof surfacing; stuccoed facades; flat roof entrance porches, commonly with arched openings supported by square columns; casement and double-hung sash windows; and ceramic tile decorations.</p><br>
<p>The design of the Times Building is one of Mr. Baum&#39;s most successful; the variety of architectural elements, including the use of three different door types and enframements on the ground floor elevation of the Times Building is particularly effective on a relatively small-scaled building. Following the crash of the land prices and the onset of the Depression, the Sarasota Times newspaper went into receivership. The Times Building was subsequently used as the office of the "Tree-Ripe Citrus Products, Inc. which was owned and operated by Mr. Owen Burns.</p><br>
<p>Today the building is being re-habilitated and altered somewhat to accommodate a restaurant and tappas bar.</p><br>
<p>The Sarasota Times Building was locally designated by the City of Sarasota in 1985.</p><br>
<p>The Sarasota Womans Club  is a historic womans club in Sarasota, Florida. It is located at 1241 North Palm Avenue. It was founded in 1913 and on January 18, 1985, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. The clubhouse is now home to the Keating Theater, the mainstage of Florida Studio Theatre.</p><br>
<h2>Building Origins</h2><br>
<p>The Sarasota Woman’s Club started as a meeting of 63 charter members on April 14, 1913</p><br>
<p>Mrs. F.H. Guenther, January 1930, read to Florida Club Women</p><br>
<p>. In 1914 Sarasota was incorporated as a city and after two years of club activities, the cornerstone was laid at their new clubhouse at the corner of Cocoanut and Palm on January 1, 1915. As part of the ground-breaking celebrations, the first club president, Alice Guenther, gave a short speech. That year, on its two-year anniversary, the club had 200 members, owned a lot, and had moved into their newly built $4,500 clubhouse.</p><br>
<p>“Woman’s Club House Opened.” The Sarasota Times. April 15, 1915. Vol. XVI, No. 45.</p><br>
<p>Created by architect H.N. Hall and contractor George Lysat, the building is Tudor Revival.</p><br>
<p>Part of the clubhouse was dedicated to housing Sarasota’s library. The Woman’s Club kept it in operation with fundraisers until 1940 when it became public.</p><br>
<p>After 38 years of being open, the clubhouse was rededicated in 1953 after being remodeled and redecorated by Naomi Widrig, a club member. The occasion was marked by a musical number and remarks by A.B. Edwards, who had been the mayor when the club was first opened, and Mrs. Joseph Halton, the first Club vice president.</p><br>

<h2>Response to the Woman’s Club</h2><br>
<p>In response to the newly founded Woman’s Club, the Sarasota Sun conducted a poll asking a few “prominent citizens” their opinion of the new organization. Then-Mayor Higel praised the Woman’s Club saying, “Best move ever made here. More attention given to their orders issued than to those of any other body.” Other government officials reacted differently, with Marshall Hodge reported to have said, “The Woman’s Club is all right; but I have troubles of my own,” with City Clerk Houle adding, “It’s a terror to the men.”</p><br>
<p>In the same Sarasota Sun article, the husband of president of the club Mrs. Alice Gunther said, “A great institution for the town, but hard on the individual in my case, as I expect to be buttonless, sockless and half-fed for the next year.” In a similar vein, Sarasota resident Walter P. Bryan offered his opinion, “I have been married so recently I dare not say what I think.”</p><br>
<p>On the whole, the foundation of the Woman’s Club was seen as a good thing for the community. Sarasota resident J.W. Madison admired the women of the club, saying of the club’s formation, “Good thing! The Woman’s Club always takes the advance position in civics and so forth.” J.J. Merrill added, “Of invaluable assistance to the city, morally and physically.” W.T. Caven observed, “Every city that has been blessed with a woman’s club has been the one to show greater progress in its culture and municipal worth.”</p><br>
<h2>Woman’s Club Activities</h2><br>
<p>The Sarasota Woman’s Club originated as the Town Improvement Society, an organization of women founded in 1903. Their first project was to have sidewalks built along Main Street, where previously there had been sand paths. They continued on to install lanterns at the train station and organize the first community library.</p><br>
<p>The Florida land boom in 1919 and the increasing political awakening of women in Florida from 1890 to 1920 during the Progressive Era paved the way for women to become more socially active. The Woman’s Club succeeded the Town Improvement Society and in many areas picked up where they left off. Their Library Committee, Cemetery Committee, Juvenile Dancing Class, Education Committee, music committees and welfare committees ensured that within four years of the founding of the Sarasota Woman’s Club, they became a social center. In 1913 the Woman’s Club took over care of the library and started improvements on Rosemary Cemetery, which had fallen into disrepair. They also created a community work day “during which businesses were closed by order of the mayor and more than 200 men with teams and wagons created a park along the bay front between Main Street and the Seaboard Air Line Railroad (now Ringling Boulevard).” The following year, they initiated a census and birth registration and planted 250 cocoanut trees along the shore. In 1915, ensconced in their new clubhouse, the Woman’s Club investigated better ways for parents to save on sending their children to school. They also sold Tuberculosis seals. Matters of health were big that year, with a speaker at the club addressing its members on the subject of health reform:</p><br>
<p>Vital statistics and the prevalence of disease is awakening all Club women to the need of a reform on the lines of health purity, and very deeply did this lady feel on the subject that a broader education should be given the young people on the question of health and a one standard of morality maintained.</p><br>
<p>1917 and 1918 saw a continued effort on behalf of school-age children. Club members founded the area PTA, campaigned for compulsory school attendance, and organized the Red Cross Auxiliary and training classes for elementary school students.</p><br>
<p>In 1917, sixty-one members of the Woman’s Club registered in the lobby of the First National Bank to help the war effort in whatever capacity they could. Registration included writing down any and all skills to be recorded and put on file. A call for other women to participate in this wartime registration appeared in the Saratimes. “Well,” said one resident female worker in the article (which was entitled “Attention Women! Are You a Patriot or a Slacker?”), “nobody plays a band for you when you go out to swat flies. Much of the work will be inglorious—but grimly necessary. A right to share in the glorious results accomplished should be compensation enough.”</p><br>
<p>During the 1920/1921 season Woman’s Club members raised money for a local hospital, registered to vote, and joined the FFWC (Florida Federation of Women’s Clubs) and GFWC (General Federation of Women&#39;s Clubs). The FFWC was most successful in their conservation projects, in particular their efforts to halt deforestation in the Everglades. The club continued in this vein of philanthropic work, founding the Helen R. Payne Day Care Nursery in 1938 as a service for the children of migrant workers and even adopting a needy child in France, for whom they then raised money and sent care packages.</p><br>
<p>Today, the Woman’s Club supports the following state and national projects: Canine Companions for Independence, Special Olympics, R.O.C.K. Camp and Bogg Creek Camp, HOBY, Hacienda Girls Ranch, and the Everglades National Park, initially established by the FFWC as Royal Palm Park.</p><br>
<p>Local philanthropies the club currently assists include: the Sarasota County Library, a scholarship fund for deserving students, continued work with the Helen R. Payne Day Care Nursery, Oak Park School, The Pines of Sarasota, the American Cancer Society, Genesis Dental Clinic, and the Sarasota Women’s Legal Fund.</p><br>
<p>The Woman’s Club of Sarasota currently supports the following organizations with donations: Safe Place Rape Crisis Center, All Faiths Food Bank, Resurrection House, Sarasota County Child Health Center, and Bay Pines Veterans Hospital.</p><br>
<h2>Seasons and Functions</h2><br>
<p>The Woman’s Club divided their calendar years into themed seasons. Each year, the club announced the season to come in a statement issued by the planning committee.</p><br>
<p>In 1914 the Woman’s Club sponsored a mock court trial. In 1921 they held a round table discussion entitled “The Censorship of the Movies.” In 1924 Princess Cantacuzene addressed club members and visitors in a speech responding to Admiral Bradley A. Fiske’s statement that “of all existing matters, the one women understood the least, is war.” She used the club as a positive example of effective social change by women. The princess concluded that the admiral’s instruction that women “butt out” is misguided.</p><br>
<p>The club would frequently host themed evenings, often costume shows. In 1916, a Mother Goose themed party raised the most funds of the year at $378.28. The 1919 Colonial Ball found between fifty and sixty couples—club members and their guests—taking part in the ball’s Grand March and taking home Colonial hats as party favors. A hat show presented in 1950 was followed by a skit entitled “The Lizzie Dash-It Hat Shoppe” written by club member Mrs. Charles Wise. At evenings such as that, the club song would be sung as part of the festivities.</p><br>
<p>The 1959/1960 season’s themes were “Investment in Understanding” and “Through wisdom is an (sic) house builded (sic) and by understanding is it established.” The series opened on November 2, 1959 with a lecture by Dr. Alfred P. Haake, a businessman, titled “America Unlimited.” The season continued with book reviews, a demonstration by cartoonist Six Hix of Chicago, a performance of the Christmas play The Gift Supreme, talks, lectures, an art history presentation, and a seminar on business tips for women.</p><br>
<p>All money raised that was not put back into the club for day-to-day expenses was given back to the town, or to state work, or other philanthropies.</p><br>
<h2>Mantras and Publicity</h2><br>
<p>To keep the public up to date on goings-on at the club, the Woman’s Club published weekly notes in The Sarasota Times, which was founded in 1899 as Sarasota’s first newspaper.</p><br>
<p>The Sarasota Woman’s Club functioned under several codes of conduct. They published their constitution and by-laws in The Sarasota Times just after their founding in 1913. In addition to these rules, the club espoused a mantra called the “Brighten Up Rules”:</p><br>
<p>That the Woman’s Club believes in.</p><br>
<p>To Brighten Up myself—to be optimistic, cheerful and good…</p><br>
<p>To Brighten Up my home and spread the Brighten Up spirit among my neighbors.</p><br>
<p>To Brighten Up my business and take pleasure as well as profit from it.</p><br>
<p>To Brighten Up my town and promote its social, Industrial and commercial progress.</p><br>
<p>To promote the love of Nature sunshine and fresh air.</p><br>
<p>To adopt Brighten Up as my slogan.</p><br>
<p>In addition, the Woman’s Club took as inspiration a poem originally published in the Southern Woman’s Magazine entitled “What is a Woman’s Club?”:</p><br>
<p>What is a woman’s club? A meeting ground,</p><br>
<p>For those whose purpose, great and broad and strong,</p><br>
<p>Whose aim is like the star: who ever long</p><br>
<p>To make the patient, hastening world resound</p><br>
<p>With sweeter music, freer tones.</p><br>
<p>A place where kindly, lifting words are said.</p><br>
<p>And kindlier deeds are done: where hearts are fed.</p><br>
<p>Where wealth of brain for poverty atones:</p><br>
<p>Where hand grasps hand: and soul finds touch with soul:</p><br>
<p>Where victors in the race for fame and power</p><br>
<p>Look back in their triumphant hour</p><br>
<p>To beckon others to the shining goal,</p><br>
<p>This is a woman’s club—a heaven fair,</p><br>
<p>Where toilers drop—an hour—their load of care.</p><br>
<h2>The Club Today</h2><br>
<p>Today, the Sarasota Woman’s Club continues to host seasonal events to benefit a variety of local and national charities. In addition to the original Sarasota club body, the Golden City Woman’s Club of Sarasota was founded in 1962 to serve Sarasota County.</p><br>
<p>Florida Studio Theatre (FST) now operates out of the old clubhouse at 1241 North Palm Avenue, as well as adjacent buildings. FST founder Jon Spelman saw in the clubhouse—which at this point was vacant and in need of serious repair—a potential performance space. Patron of the arts Marian McKenna, whose fond memories of the clubhouse included receiving her first kiss on the premises, purchased the old building from Boomhauer Realty and sold it to FST at a greatly reduced price. Under the ownership of FST, the clubhouse has undergone extensive renovation and beautification, while maintaining the exterior look and structure of the original building. FST has grown in the last 30 years under the direction of Artistic Director Richard Hopkins. Today, the building is the fully operational 173-seat Keating Theatre, FST&#39;s mainstage and is the cornerstone of a 3 theatre complex dedicated to contemporary plays reaching over 175,000 people yearly.</p><br>
<p>The Congress Building, or simply the Congress Building, is a historic skyscraper in Downtown Miami, Florida, United States. It is located at the address of 111 Northeast 2nd Avenue. The Congress Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 14, 1985, and is locally identified a historic site in the Downtown Miami Development of Regional Impact . The Congress Building was formerly office space until 1999, when it was restored and converted to apartments. At street level, the building contains retail space which is leased to a number of stores and services including a financial establishment, The Loft condo sales center, beauty salon and café. Originally the building was five stories, the additional 16 were added on later.</p><br>
<p>The Miami Women&#39;s Club is a historic site in Miami, Florida. It is located at 1737 North Bayshore Drive. On December 27, 1974, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The organization has faced problems in restoring its historic headquarters.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Miami Women’s Club organizes and participates in a variety of civic and community service activities in the Miami area. It also played a lead role in establishing public libraries in Miami.</p><br>
<p>The club formed in 1900 when a group of women began meeting weekly to socialize and read. They drew up an official constitution in September of that year, as the Married Ladies’ Afternoon Club. In 1902, club members voted to emphasize the literary nature of the club and began to circulate books for $1.50 per year to non-members.</p><br>
<p>The club grew to 80 members by 1903, when it joined the State Federation of Woman’s Clubs. In 1906, the club changed its name to the Miami Woman’s Club. Henry Flagler and the Model Land Company donated land at the corner of Royal Palm Park for a club building in 1912, with the stipulation that the building must also be used as a public library and free reading room. Club membership continued to grow, and by 1916, the Miami Woman’s Club was the largest woman’s club in the state.</p><br>
<p>In 1923, the Miami Woman’s Club opened a children’s library, and sold the building at Royal Palm Park. The club purchased a site for its new facilities at Bay Shore Drive and NE 17th Terrace, and selected August Geiger as the architect for the building, which opened in 1926. The building was named the Flagler Memorial Library and Woman’s Club, and is still used by the club.</p><br>
<p>In 1924, the City of Miami began paying the operating expenses for the library, and in 1942, it took over management of the Flagler Library and other area branch libraries. The club’s Library Committee continued to serve in an advisory capacity.</p><br>
<p>With a mission of supporting education and community stewardship, the Miami Woman’s Club participates in numerous civic and community service activities. To facilitate its work, the club includes the following departments and committees: Arts Department, Conservation Department, Education Department, Home Life Department, International Affairs Department, Public Affairs Department, Budget Committee, Hospitality Committee, House Committee, Telephone Committee, Library Committee, Program Committee, Revisions Committee, Special Improvement Committee, Advisory Board, Cashier, Trustees, and Yearbook.</p><br>

<p>Pico Almanzor is the highest mountain in central Spain. Situated in the Sierra de Gredos in the province of Ávila, Almanzor is 2,591 m high. It is made of granite. The mountain is also known as Pico de Almanzor and Moro Almanzor.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The mountain got its name from Al-Mansur (Arabic for "the victorious"). Al-Mansur Ibn Abi Aamir was a general and statesman in Muslim Spain (Caliphate of Cordoba) during the late 10th century. Muhammad bin Abi Amir was his real name; the Moors in Spain gave him the title of Al-Mansur due to his victories over the Christians.</p><br>
<p>During his many campaigns, Al-Mansur passed near this mountain and he was captivated by its beauty.</p><br>
<p>Pico Almanzor was climbed for the first time in September 1899 by M. González de Amezúa and José Ibrián. Espada, Ontañon and Abricarro made the first winter ascent in 1903. In 1960, a 1 metre-tall iron cross was placed on the summit.</p><br>
<p>Snake Island, also known as Bare Island), one of many Snake Island around world, is an island in Boston Harbor. The island is part of the Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area and is situated in the inner harbor between the town of Winthrop and the reclaimed land that forms Logan International Airport. It is part of the Town of Winthrop. It is named for its serpentine shape, and has a permanent size of 3 acre, and rises to a height of 10 ft above sea level.</p><br>
<p>Since the 18th century the island has been owned by variety of owners, and has been used for livestock grazing, and as a squatter camp occupied by lobstermen and clammers. In the 1900s a grounded steamer served as residence for lobstermen from Winthrop. Today the island is uninhabited and classified as "conservation land". Access is by private boat only.</p><br>
<p>The island is less than 1/4 mile from two shores of the Town of Winthrop. Unique among the Boston Harbor Islands, it has an interior lagoon which fills and partly drains, with the tide. The water entrance to the lagoon is winding and only six feet wide, not navigable for even a canoe or kayak, except at an unusually high tide. The lagoon and lack of predators makes the island attractive to birds, including migratory species. It is posted</p><br>
<p>off-limits in the spring, when many bird species nest there. In recent years the island has increased in area, due to shoaling of the surrounding water, especially to the west; its long "tail" is now fully exposed at low tide. Access is only possible by beachable small craft, due to very shallow water and mud flats around the island.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Trinity Cathedral is the oldest church in the original city limits of Miami, having been organized by the Rt. Rev. William Crane Gray on June 12, 1896, more than a month before the city was incorporated. In 1904, the Trinity Mission became self-supporting and thus achieved parish status. The wooden church building was replaced in 1912 by an imposing, two-story stone church, similar in design to St. Paul&#39;s Episcopal Church in Key West.</p><br>
<p>In 1923, as the great Miami and Florida real estate boom of the roaring twenties neared its peak, the congregation bought land at the corner of NE Bayshore Drive and 15th Street for the site of a church large enough to seat eleven hundred worshipers. Miami architect Harold Hastings Mundy designed the new church, whose construction was finished in July, 1925. The proportions of the building and its general idea were inspired by the Roman Catholic Church of St. Giles, near Nîmes in southern France. Muncy combined Romanesque, Byzantine, and Italianate elements of architecture to give the building a distinctive Mediterranean appearance. When the boom collapsed in 1927, Trinity Church was saddled with a large mortgage debt, which was not paid until 1946, after almost twenty years of sacrifice and struggle.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the Cathedral contains a profusion of finely wrought mosaics which depict the six days of creation, the hosts of heaven, and the Stations of the Cross. In addition, stained glass windows illustrate events in the life of Jesus with corresponding scenes from the Old Testament, the miracles of Jesus, the Song of the Three Young Men (the Benedictus es), the seven sacraments of the church, and many of the saints and scholars of the British Isles before the Protestant Reformation. The Cathedral interior has a sound reverberation of more than four seconds, a feature which greatly enhances the musical effectiveness of the Cathedral&#39;s E. M. Skinner/Æolian Skinner pipe organ of fifty-six ranks. and makes it one of the "warmest" rooms for music.</p><br>
<p>In 1970, the delegates to the first convention of the new Episcopal Diocese of Southeast Florida voted to make Trinity Church the cathedral for the diocese, the location of the bishops throne, the cathedra. In 1980, the Cathedral was judged to be of such architectural and historical significance that it was placed on the U. S. Department of the Interiors Register of National Historic Places.</p><br>

<p>Marchinbar Island is the largest island in the Wessel Islands, Northern Territory, Australia, in the Arafura Sea.</p><br>
<h2>Location</h2><br>
<p>It is separated from Rimbija Island, the most northeasterly of the Wessel Islands, by a narrow channel, which is less than 400 metres across at its narrowest point. In the southeast, it is separated from Guluwuru Island by Cumberland Strait, which is 1600 metres wide at its narrowest point.</p><br>
<h2>Geomorphology</h2><br>
<p>The island is a long and narrow island, 57.4 km long and maximally 8 km wide. It measures 210.9 km² in area. The most northerly point of the island is called Low Point. Sphinx Head is a site of conspicuous cliffs up to 67 metres high, about 16 km SSW of Low Point. Two flat-topped hills south of Sphinx Head rise to a maximum height of 79 metres. The entire east coast of the island is cliffy and high.</p><br>
<h2>Administration</h2><br>
<p>Administratively, Marchinbar Island is part of Gumurr Marthakal Ward of East Arnhem Region.</p><br>
<h2>Settlement</h2><br>
<p>The only settlement is Martjanba, a small family outstation on Jensen Bay in the northern part of the island.</p><br>
<h2>Habitat</h2><br>
<p>Marchinbar Island was until recently the last habitat still containing a population of the golden bandicoot (Isoodon auratus), which was once found throughout northern, central and western Australia, and as far south as New South Wales. As part of a salvage operation to ensure diversification, numbers of the Marchinbar Island bandicoots have been translocated to the islands of Raragala and Guluwuru.</p><br>
<h2>Discovery of ancient coins</h2><br>
<p>In 1944, nine coins were discovered at Djinjan creek immediately south of Jensen Bay. Four of the coins were later identified as Dutch duits dating from 1690 to the 1780s while five with Arabic inscriptions were identified as being from the Kilwa Sultanate of east Africa. Only one such Kilwan coin had ever previously been found outside east Africa (unearthed during an excavation in Oman). The inscriptions on the Jensen Bay coins identify a ruling Sultan of Kilwa, but it is unclear whether the ruler was from the 10th century or the 14th century. This discovery has been of interest to those historians who believe it likely that people made landfall in Australia or its offshore islands before the first generally accepted such discovery, by the Dutch sailor Willem Janszoon in 1606.</p><br>
<p>Drysdale Island is a large yet low lying island in the Wessel Islands group in the Northern Territory of Australia. It is 12.4 km long and up to 6.4 km wide. It measures 49.5 km² in area.</p><br>
<p>The only settlement is Yirringa, a small family outstation at the northeastern end.</p><br>
<p>There are numerous small lakes within it which are easily accessed by the tide, some of which are submerged for prolonged periods of time.</p><br>
<p>Much smaller and uninhabited Yargara Island (little more than one square kilometre in area) lies directly north and is separated from it by a shallow, rocky channel 400 metres wide. Nearest neighbour to the south(west) is Graham Island, separated by a 1600 metre wide marine channel. The easternmost point of the island is called Dale Point.</p><br>
<p>Fenit Island is a populated island, in on the coast of County Kerry, connected to the mainland by a sandbar. Located in Tralee Bay, the island encloses Barrow Harbour. Historically, the area was called Fenit Within. It is adjacent to the areas of Tawlacht and Fenit Without on the mainland. The terms within/without refer to the walled protection that surrounded parts of the island from attackers from the landward side.</p><br>
<p>The island is accessible by foot along the sandbar at most times, and by car at low tide, by driving on the beach. Many old ruins exist on the island, including a castle, two churches and a graveyard. The Castle is the only one of these ruins that remain visible today. It was built by the FitzMaurices in the 17th Century.</p><br>
<p>Enclosing Barrow Harbour from Tralee Bay, to protect Barrow Harbour from seaborne attackers, an iron or steel chain was stretched across the neck of water, between the mainland and the island near the castle.</p><br>
<p>Saint Brendan the Navigator was born on Fenit Island.</p><br>
<p>Scotchtown is a plantation located in Hanover County, Virginia, that from 1771–1778 was owned and used as a residence by Patrick Henry, his wife Sarah and their children. He was a revolutionary and elected in 1778 as the first Governor of Virginia. The house is located in Beaverdam, Virginia, 10 mi northwest of Ashland, Virginia on VA 685. The house, at 93 ft by 35 ft, is one of the largest 18th-century homes to survive in the Americas. In its present configuration, it has eight substantial rooms on the first floor surrounding a central passage, with a full attic above and English basement with windows below. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965.</p><br>
<p>The house is owned and managed by Preservation Virginia, which operates a number of other historic properties across the Commonwealth, including the John Marshall House, the Old Cape Henry Lighthouse, Bacon&#39;s Castle, and Historic Jamestowne.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Scotchtown property was given as a land grant to Charles Chiswell, a prominent planter and iron mine owner, in 1717. Chiswell built a small house on the property, probably in the 1720s. It was expanded to its present size around 1760. It was first given the name "Scotch Town" in a 1757 deed of sale. At this time the house also was used as a store that bought and sold local tobacco.</p><br>
<p>Patrick Henry purchased the house in 1771 and lived there with his wife, Sarah Shelton Henry, and their six children. This was his home during his most influential period, including his famous "Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death!" speech at St. Johns Episcopal Church in Richmond, Virginia. It was also his residence when he was elected Governor of Virginia in 1776. His wife Sarah, who suffered from mental illness, died at the site in 1775. He resided at Scotchtown until 1777. That year he married his second wife and in 1778 they relocated, after his election, to the Governors Palace in Williamsburg.</p><br>
<p>Beginning in 1801, the property was owned by the Sheppard/Taylor family. In 1958 it was purchased by Preservation Virginia (formerly known as the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities). Little is known about the Sheppard-Taylor family, other than the changes they made to the appearance of the house over the generations.</p><br>
<p>Scotchtown was long believed to have been the girlhood home of Dolley Madison, wife of president James Madison, who was a relative of Patrick Henry. But, there is little evidence beyond Madisons own recollections of the house as a child to support this fact. Dolley Madisons recollections may have been memories of visits to the house during her childhood.</p><br>
<h2>Preservation</h2><br>
<p>The property was sold at auction in 1957, when it was purchased by Preservation Virginia for $17,000. Extensive archaeological work has taken place in the decades following. A number of projects have restored the house to its late 18th-century appearance, including rebuilding outbuildings such as the icehouse, kitchen, and law office.</p><br>
<p>Scotchtown was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1965 as an unusual 18th-century structure associated with a Founding Father. The property received a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services in 1993 to "reexamine its policies, procedures, and the current condition of its collection and structures," including restructuring its programming. It is currently open for visitors seasonally or by appointment.</p><br>
<p>Hartshead Pike is a hill in Tameside in Greater Manchester, England, and its name is associated with the monument on its summit. It overlooks Ashton-under-Lyne, Mossley and Oldham. Hartshead Pike Tower has been a Grade II Listed building since 1967.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>During the Roman occupation of Britain, a warning beacon for local garrisons, possibly lit during times of unrest, may have been sited on Hartshead Pike. Local trackways were routes for the Romans to access the Roman road at Limeside.</p><br>
<p>The name refers to the hill and the tower. The tower is not on the highest part of the hill but its prominent position, 940 ft above sea level, has been the site of a beacon or signalling station</p><br>
<h2>Tower</h2><br>
<p>The circular, grade-II-listed tower is constructed of hammer-dressed stone with a door on the west side and cusped lancet windows. It has a steeply pitched conical roof above corbelled eaves and dormer roof lights.</p><br>
<p>The tower was rebuilt in 1863 by John Eaton to commemorate the marriage of HRH Albert Edward to Princess Alexandra, replacing a building that had been there since 1751. An inscription stone reused in the tower states "This Pike Was Rebuilt By Publick Contributions Anno Domini 1751". In the 1930s the tower was open to the public and contained a sweet shop; it closed at the outbreak of the Second World War and the tower entrance was bricked up after the war in about 1950. There is a well on the summit enclosed by a stone slab. The inscription above the tower&#39;s entrance reads "Look well at me Before you go And See You nothing at me throw".</p><br>
<p>The River Bovey rises on the eastern side of Dartmoor in Devon, England, and is the largest tributary to the River Teign. The river has two main source streams, both rising within a mile of each other, either side of the B3212 road between Moretonhampstead and Postbridge, before joining at Jurston.</p><br>
<p>The river flows for about two miles northwards from source before turning to a generally south easterly direction. It passes the village of North Bovey, flows through the Lustleigh Cleave between the villages of Manaton and Lustleigh, and then through the town of Bovey Tracey. It joins the River Teign on the boundary between the parishes of Teigngrace and Kingsteignton, about a mile south of the village of Chudleigh Knighton.</p><br>
<h2>Catchment</h2><br>
<p>The catchment of the river runs to the West at Chagford Common, past Hookney Tor, and the road from Fordgate to Hound Tor. To the South, the watershed is with the River Lemon and runs from Hemsworthy Gate to Haytor Rocks, past Brimley and to the North of Stover Country Park.</p><br>
<p>The Eastern boundary runs between Chudleigh Knighton to Doccombe, and in the North, is runs in a line from just outside Moretonhampstead to Meldon Hill, South of Chagford.</p><br>
<h2>Tributaries</h2><br>
<p>There are two main tributaries, one being the Becka Brook, rising near Hound Tor, flowing through Becky Falls, and joining the Bovey just below Trendlebere Down. The second is the Wray Brook which starts North of Moretonhampstead, and joins the Bovey to the South of Lustleigh.</p><br>
<h2>Naming influence</h2><br>
<p>The river gives its name to the Bovey Formation, a geological sedimentary basin which is the major source in England for ball clay.</p><br>
<p>The towns of North Bovey and Bovey Tracey both take their name from the river, as does Bovey Castle, a luxury hotel close to the river outside North Bovey.</p><br>
<p>Young Lick is a mountain that lies in three Georgia counties, Habersham, Rabun and Towns. Its summit - Young Lick Knob, elevation 3,809 ft, is one of Habersham County&#39;s highest points. Young Lick Knob is crossed by the Appalachian Trail.</p><br>
<p>The peak is geographically significant for two reasons. First, it marks the point where Habersham, Rabun and Towns counties meet. More importantly, Young Lick is a "triple-divide" peak on the Eastern Continental Divide, with rainfall from its summit flowing into three completely separate major basins. To the northeast of the peak, water flows into the headwaters of the Savannah River and into the Atlantic Ocean. To the southeast, water flows directly into the Gulf of Mexico via the Chattahoochee, then Apalachicola rivers. To the west, water also flows to the Gulf, but it follows a less direct route via the Hiawassee, Tennessee, Ohio, and Mississippi river systems.</p><br>
<p>Field Manor, located at 750 Field Manor Drive in Indianola on Merritt Island, Florida was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 1997 as the J.R. Field Homestead. It is one of the oldest standing structures on Merritt Island, dating to the 1880s.</p><br>
<h2>Field Manor Foundation</h2><br>
<p>Today, Field Manor is owned by Field Manor Foundation, a private 501(c)3 foundation created by Alma Clyde Field, the last Field family member to reside in the house. The homestead is open to the public as a historic house museum, having undergone two years of preservation and restoration. Everything in the house is original, from the furniture collection to the beadboard walls. The site also serves as an event venue.</p><br>
<p>The Mott Willis Store, also known as the Knight-Willis Store, is a historic building in Charlotte Harbor, Florida. It is located at 22960 Bayshore Road. On May 30, 1997, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. However, the following year it was demolished.</p><br>
<p>In 2000, an archeological dig was performed at the Mott Willis General Store site. Artifacts recovered from the excavation are on display at the.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Mott Willis Store, originally known as the Knight-Willis Store, was opened by cattle barons, Joel and Thomas Knight, during the initial American settlement and growth of the Hickory Bluff area, after the Civil War in 1872. The store was then purchased by Mott Willis in 1912. Willis reconstructed the store from its original wood structure to a concrete block building in 1922.</p><br>
<p>In the 1970s, the store was known as The White Elephant and sold used goods and salvaged building materials before being transformed into a theater for the.</p><br>
<p>Efforts to save and restore the store by the Knight Historic Building, Inc. were defeated in court and the structure was destroyed in 1998.</p><br>

<p>The George Randolph Frisbee Jr. House is a historic house located at 2125 Palmetto Street in Middleburg, Florida. It is locally significant as an excellent example of late 19th century vernacular building trends and also as one of the few buildings dating from the early developmental period of the community.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>It is a two-story, Frame Vernacular building, with an L-shaped floor plan. It has a steeply-pitched, side gabled roof. The symmetrical main facade is dominated by a two-story, hip roofed porch with chamfered post supports and a balustrade. There is a rear gabled, one-story ell, and a two-story shed roofed addition on the rear elevation. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 9, 1990.</p><br>
<p>The Joseph Green House was a historic two-story home in Orange Park, Florida. It was the oldest building of Orange Parks black community, located at 531 McIntosh Avenue. On July 15, 1998, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places, becoming the Registers only minority-owned property in Clay County at the time.</p><br>
<p>Green was a black carpenter from Mississippi who settled in Orange Park around 1886 and built this home in 1893. His daughter-in-law sold the home to St. James AME Church for $30,000 in 1994. The church then used it as a rental property, so it was not open for public tours.</p><br>
<p>AME Churches in Florida, the parent church of the local congregation, sued a number of local congregants to gain ownership of the property. The parent church&#39;s bishop said the local church had promised to build a new sanctuary on that spot, so he agreed to drop the lawsuit on the condition that the home be demolished.</p><br>

<p>Black Mountain is located in Georgia USA on the boundary between Dawson and Gilmer counties. The summit is the highest point in Dawson County. It is in the Chattahoochee National Forest and is part of the Blue Ridge Wildlife Management Area.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Black Mountain is located on the border of Dawson and Gilmer counties. Its elevation is about 3,600 feet.</p><br>
<h2>Hiking</h2><br>
<p>Black Mountain can be reached via the Appalachian Approach Trail. It is a 5.5 mi hike north from Amicalola Falls State Park, a 0.6 mi hike north from Nimblewill Gap, and a 2.3 mi hike south from Springer Mountain on the trail.</p><br>
<p>The Gesu Church is a historic Roman Catholic church in Miami, Florida. It is located at 118 Northeast 2nd Street. On July 18, 1974, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. The church was built in 1896 and is the oldest Catholic Church in Miami.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Gesu Church is significant for its important role in the religious history of Miami and as a reflection of the City&#39;s growth and development. In addition, the buildings are excellent examples of religious architecture and noteworthy for the excellence of its design, craftsmanship, and detailing.</p><br>
<p>Gesu is Miami&#39;s oldest Catholic parish and has served the religious and humanitarian needs of the community for over a century. The growth of the parish closely parallels the development of the City of Miami.</p><br>
<p>Miamis first Catholic service was conducted in 1872 when Father Dufau, who had been sent to South Florida by Bishop John Marcellus Peter Augustine Verot, P.S.S. of St. Augustine, celebrated Mass and confirmed the pioneer family of William J. Wagner. Wagner constructed a small wooden church on his homestead in 1875, and this became Miamis first house of worship.</p><br>
<p>The Holy Name Parish (now Gesu) was organized in 1896 and the pastor was Father Ambrose Fontan, S.J. A new church was constructed in 1897 on land donated by Henry Flagler. As Miamis population and the Holy Name congregation expanded, the need for a larger church became evident. A cornerstone was subsequently laid on December 10, 1920, on the site of the earlier church, and the new building was dedicated in 1925. The Gesu Parish School opened in 1905 with six grades and 60 students. The original school name was The Academy of the Sisters of St. Joseph St. Catherines Convent. The school was also known as St. Catherines Convent School and St. Catherines Academy. There were four graduates in the first high school graduating class of 1913. The Sisters of St. Joseph of St. Augustine, Florida, were the teaching staff at the school.</p><br>
<p>A new five story school was built in 1926 and the name changed to Gesu Parish School. It was located at 130 Northeast 2nd Street. The last Gesu High School graduation was in 1953. There were 40 graduates in that class. The last eighth grade graduation was in 1982 when the school was closed. The school was demolished in 1984.</p><br>
<p>Gesu Church continues to serve as one of the three downtown churches and was recently restored to its original appearance. The parish has been staffed by the Jesuits of Antilles province since 2004. Previously it was staffed by the Jesuits of New Orleans province. Father Eduardo "Eddy" Alvarez, S.J. is the pastor. The church seating capacity is 700 plus 150 in choir balcony.</p><br>

<p>Am Bodach is a Scottish mountain which lies in the Mamores range, four kilometres north of Kinlochleven in the Highland council area.</p><br>
<h2>Overview</h2><br>
<p>Am Bodach is a Munro which reaches a height of 1032 metres (3386 feet) making it the 100th highest mountain in that classification, it is situated on the main ridge of the Mamores in a central position and is the most accessible of the group. The closest approach to the mountain is from Kinlochleven to the south, however the mountain is often approached along its north eastern or eastern ridges as part of the highly rated “Ring of Steall” ridge walk which starts and finishes in Glen Nevis and climbs the other Munros of An Gearanach, Stob Coire a Chàirn and Sgurr a Mhàim. Am Bodach translates from the Gaelic as “The Old Man”, this name was often given to a conspicuous hill overlooking a community and it was probably named by settlers at the head of Loch Leven which the mountain overlooks. The mountain should not be confused with another Am Bodach at the eastern end of the Aonach Eagach ridge in Glen Coe.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Am Bodach is a fine looking mountain with a sharp peak formed by its three steep and rocky faces, the eastern face above the Coire na Ba is especially precipitous and craggy and holds patches of snow well into summer. Am Bodach has three ridges radiating from its summit, the western one connects to the former Munro of Sgurr an Iubhair (downgraded to a "Top" in the 1997 revisions) while the north eastern ridge, which is steep and rocky, connects to the Munro of Stob Coire a&#39; Chàirn, it is along these two ridges that walkers undertaking the Ring of Steall walk will arrive and leave the mountain. A third ridge goes southerly over the minor top of Sgurr an Fhurain before descending steeply to Kinlochleven.</p><br>
<h2>Ascents</h2><br>
<p>The direct ascent of Am Bodach starts at sea level at Kinlochleven, although it is possible to drive to and park at Mamore Lodge saving 200 metres of ascent, the track goes north west for one kilometre along the old military road to Fort William built by General Caulfield, which now carries the West Highland Way. The track is then left and it is a steep climb north east to the top of Sgurr an Fhurain and then north to the summit of Am Bodach. The view from the top takes in Glen Coe and Loch Leven, with Bidean nam Bian looking especially fine.</p><br>
<p>Sugarloaf Mountain is a mountain located in Carrabassett Valley, Franklin County, Maine. It is the third highest peak in the state, after Mount Katahdin&#39;s Baxter and Hamlin peaks. Sugarloaf is flanked to the south by Spaulding Mountain.</p><br>
<p>The northeast and west sides of Sugarloaf drain into the South Branch of the Carrabassett River, which flows into the Kennebec River, and into the Gulf of Maine. The southeast side of Sugarloaf drains into Rapid Stream, then into the West Branch of the Carrabassett River.</p><br>
<p>The Appalachian Trail (AT), a 2,170 mi National Scenic Trail from Georgia to Maine, passes within a mile of the summit, skirting the peak to the west, and the summit is reached by a 0.6 mi side trail. This side trail, and a trail down the east side of Sugarloaf, were originally part of the AT, which has been relocated down the north side of the mountain to the west of the ski slopes. Sugarloaf, a major ski resort is located on the north side of the mountain.</p><br>
<p>The Tanner Trail is a hiking trail located on the South Rim of the Grand Canyon National Park, located in the USA state of Arizona. The trailhead is located at Lipan Point, a prominent lookout located to the east of the Grand Canyon Village and it ends at the Colorado River at Tanner Rapids.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Tanner Trail started out as an ancient Anasazi and Hopi route to the Colorado River. Most believe today that Tanner Canyon is where García López de Cárdenas became the first European to encounter the Grand Canyon. The trail is named after Seth Tanner, a 19th-century prospector who improved the trail so he would have better access to his copper mine. It is also believed that Tanner Canyon was once used as an old horse thief trail where buried gold known as Long Tom&#39;s treasure is located. The horse thieves would use the canyon to bring the horses from Arizona into Utah. While in the canyon, the horse thieves would change the brands of the horses, then they would cross the Colorado River and drive the horses out of the canyon through the Nankoweap Trail up onto the North Rim. The canyon was once named Horsethief Canyon in honor of this storied past.</p><br>
<h2>Access</h2><br>
<p>Entrance to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon can be accessed by two points: the south entrance via State Route 64 north from Williams, and the east entrance via State Route 64 west from USA Route 89. The trailhead for the Tanner Trail is located near the parking area at Lipan Point, which can be accessed by the Desert View Drive. Hikers are advised to park at Lipan Point, as the trailhead is located just before the parking lot at Lipan Point.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Tanner trailhead begins at the information sign just before Lipan Point. The trail starts out by crossing the rim plateau to the canyon edge. It then enters the Tanner Canyon and starts a series of switchbacks, which become very steep and rocky. The descent is considered to be one of the steepest rim descents in the Grand Canyon. The trail goes through the Kaibab Formation and becomes even steeper in the Coconino sandstone and the Hermit shale. It finally reaches the Supai group, where the ridge between Tanner Canyon and Seventyfive Mile Canyon is located.</p><br>
<p>The trail then enters into the Tanner Canyon creek for a short time, then it leaves the creek. It then makes a long yet moderate crossing of the Supai group. There are many suitable campsites along this stretch, while it passes Escalante and then Cardenas Buttes. The trail passes below these buttes and descends into a boulder-strewn plateau. It then turns to the north to the end of the plateau.</p><br>
<p>At this point the trail makes its second major descent, dropping off the plateau into the lower Tanner Canyon. There are some switchbacks yet the trail mainly descends straight down around 800 ft to a red saddle below where there are a few campsites. From the saddle, the trail levels out, although there is still a gradual rate of descent. The trail follows the west side of Tanner Canyon, slowly descending to the streambed below. When the streambed is reached, the trail crosses over to the east side and up onto the river plateau. It crosses this small plateau and drops into the campground. Campsites can be found to the east and the west</p><br>
<h3>Condition</h3><br>
<p>The trail is categorized as a primitive trail and receives little maintenance by trail crews and very few patrols by park rangers. This trail is only recommended for seasoned hikers, as it is very steep, rocky, has very little shade, and the only water source is the Colorado River. The trail is fairly well worn, and mostly easy to follow, although it is one of the longer trails in the Canyon. Extreme care and preparation should always be taken in attempting a trail in the Grand Canyon.</p><br>
<h3>Water availability</h3><br>
<p>The only reliable source of water along the Tanner Trail is the Colorado River. Seasonal water may be found in the Tanner Canyon. Hikers can check with the Backcountry Information Center for updates on all seasonal water sources, which are regularly checked by other hikers and Park rangers. All water in the Grand Canyon must be treated before consumption. The National Park Service recommends boiling, iodine tablets, or filters in order to purify the water. If water is taken from the Colorado River, the Park recommends letting the water sit so the sediment will settle.</p><br>
<h3>Camping</h3><br>
<p>Camping in the Tanner Trail area is at-large. There are multiple "campsites" along the trail, but the main camp area is located at Tanner Rapids, a spot that is popular to rafters. The camp area is located at the end of the Trail, situated between the dunes to west and the river to the east. The camp area has a pit toilet located in the middle of the campsites. The sand dunes to west are off-limits to camping and foot-travel, as the Park is attempting to revegetate and stabilize the area</p><br>
<h3>Hazards</h3><br>
<p>Hazards hikers can encounter along the Tanner Trail include dehydration, heat stroke, exhaustion, sudden rainstorms, flash flooding, loose footing, rockfall, encounters with wildlife, extreme heat, and getting lost. At the Colorado River, additional hazards include hypothermia (due to the river&#39;s consistently cold temperatures), trauma (due to collisions with boulders in rapids), and drowning. Extreme care, caution, and preparation should always be used when entering the Grand Canyon.</p><br>
<p>Hikers also need to remember that the Grand Canyon is located in the desert, and as such there are many dangerous desert species to watch out for. These include all types of scorpions, snakes, spiders, centipedes, mice, deer, big horn sheep, and mountain lions. The most dangerous and venomous of these animals are the black widow spider, the Arizona bark scorpion, and the rattlesnake.</p><br>
<p>The Llaima Volcano is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Chile. It is situated 82 km northeast of Temuco and 663 km southeast of Santiago, within the borders of Conguillío National Park.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>The top of Llaima consists of two summits; the lower of the two, Pichillaima, is about 2,920 m high and is significantly less prominent than the higher northern summit.</p><br>
<p>The average elevation of the terrain around Llaima is about 740 m asl.</p><br>
<p>The volcano, along with Sierra Nevada, surrounds the Conguillío Lake. Its slopes are drained by the rivers Captrén, Quepe and Trufultruful. The former ones are tributaries of Cautín River and the latter is affluent of Allipén River.</p><br>
<h2>Eruptions</h2><br>
<p>Llaima is one of Chile&#39;s most active volcanoes and has frequent but moderate eruptions. Llaima’s activity has been documented since the 17th century, and consists of several separate episodes of moderate explosive eruptions with occasional lava flows.</p><br>
<p>The last major eruption occurred in 1994.</p><br>
<p>An eruption on January 1, 2008 forced the evacuation of hundreds of people from nearby villages. A column of smoke approximately 3000 m high was observed. An amateur caught the early eruption phase on video. The volcanic ash expelled by Llaima travelled east over the Andes into Argentina. Ash fall was recorded in the area of Zapala, Neuquén Province, and forced the cancellation of flights to and from Presidente Perón Airport near the city of Neuquén. On July 2, 2008, another eruption resulted in evacuation of 40 people from a 15 km exclusion zone.</p><br>
<p>An eruption occurred on April 5, 2009, with pyroclastic flows, ash and lava seen on the slopes.</p><br>
<p>For the 2010–30 period an eruption of Volcanic Explosivity Index 2 or more is expected based on statistics.</p><br>
<h2>Recreation</h2><br>
<p>The ski center Las Araucarias lies on the volcano&#39;s western slopes.</p><br>
<p>Grassy Ridge is a ridge in the Blue Ridge Mountains in Georgia that runs south to north along the Eastern Continental Divide in Rabun County, Georgia. At the southern end of the ridge, there is an unnamed peak with an elevation of just over 3,800 ft. From there, the ridge runs north, crossing the boundary between Georgia and North Carolina at just over 4,360 ft and then ultimately joining Ridgepole Mountain in North Carolina. In between its southernmost point and North Carolina, there is another unnamed peak with an elevation of just over 4,420 feet  and a gap called Nichols Gap with an elevation of 4,169 ft. Grassy Ridge is in the Southern Nantahala Wilderness of the Chattahoochee National Forest</p><br>
<p>Grassy Ridge was burned during the 2016 Rock Mountain Fire.</p><br>
<p>The Addison Community Baptist Church is a historic church building at 4970 Vermont Route 22A in the village center of Addison, Vermont. Built in 1816 and restyled in 1849, it is one of Vermont&#39;s oldest Baptist churches, and a good local example of Greek Revival architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 as Addison Baptist Church.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Addison Community Baptist Church stands just south of Addison Town Hall, on the west side of Vermont Route 22A just south of its junction with Vermont Route 17. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. It is three bays wide and three deep, the bays of the front and sides articulated by pilasters. An entablature encircles the building below the roof line, and a square tower rises through the front of the roof. It has a plain first stage in which the front facade includes a panel with the building&#39;s construction date. It is topped by an entablature and cornice, above which the smaller belfry stage rises. It is also square, with pilastered corners, entablature and louvered openings. An octagonal steeple rises above the belfry, terminating in a spire. The front facade is relatively plain, with unwindowed side bays flanking a projecting central bay. The main entrance is recessed in that bay, where a pair of sash windows are mounted above the doorway. The interior retains original box pews. Federal style columns that originally supported the gallery are now used as supports in the basement, where the vestry is located.</p><br>
<p>Addison&#39;s Baptist congregation was organized in 1797, and organized the construction of this building in 1816. In 1849 the building underwent a major restyling, at which time its Greek Revival features were added. Alterations since then have been limited: the building has been fitted with electricity and modern plumbing, and an ell was added to the rear in 1962.</p><br>
<p>Epping Forest  was a historic, 58 acre estate in Jacksonville, Florida where a luxurious riverfront mansion was built in the mid-1920s by industrialist Alfred I. du Pont and his third wife, Jessie Ball du Pont. It was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and has been restored to its original grandeur as the home of the Epping Forest Yacht Club. On April 18, 2012, the AIA&#39;s Florida Chapter placed the Epping Forest Yacht Club on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.</p><br>
<h2>du Pont history</h2><br>
<p>Alfred I. du Pont was originally from Delaware and controlled the famous DuPont Chemical Company with his cousins, Pierre and Coleman. Over the years, their relationship deteriorated to the point where Alfred resigned from the family company in 1917. He created business ventures in Delaware and New York, but in 1925, cousin Pierre was named Delawares Tax Commissioner. To prevent Pierre from sticking his nose into Alfred’s property holdings and investments, Alfred decided to relocate to Jacksonville, Florida, a city hed often heard his mother talk about when he was growing up.</p><br>
<p>Alfred and Jessie became legal residents of Florida and Alfred began a second career pioneering the development of sound banking practices and investing in transportation and the paper industry.</p><br>
<p>The location Alfred chose for their permanent home was at Christopher Point, the widest spot on the St. Johns River, which provided an excellent area for his favorite pastime, yachting on his beloved Nenemoosha, built in 1922.</p><br>
<h2>Mansion</h2><br>
<p>Local architects Marsh & Saxelbye designed the 15,000 ft&sup2, 25-room Epping Forest Mansion, but Harold Saxelbye contributed the most influence. It is primarily Mediterranean Revival, combining influences from Gothic, Spanish Renaissance and Baroque architectural. Jessie selected the furnishings; Alfred designed the formal English gardens and lions head fountain. The estate was named in honor of Mary Ball Washington, George Washingtons mother and Jessie&#39;s ancestor, whose Virginia plantation bore the same name. The duPonts estate hosted USA presidents, powerful men (Vanderbilt, Carnegie, etc.) and kings.</p><br>
<p>After Jessie Ball duPont died in 1970, Edward Ball, who was Jessie&#39;s brother, sold the property to his close friend and local businessman Raymond K. Mason, CEO of the Charter Company, who used the property as his family residence until 1984.</p><br>
<h2>Epping Forest Yacht & Country Club</h2><br>
<p>In 1984, Gate Petroleum Company purchased the 58 acre du Pont estate. The 11⅓ acres occupied by the mansion, gardens, boathouse and riverfront were restored to their original splendor and transformed into the Epping Forest Yacht & Country Club.</p><br>
<p>The remaining property was developed into a gated community of ninety $1 million homes and 80 condominiums under the Epping Forest name. The last home was constructed in 1999.</p><br>
<p>The former St. Andrews Episcopal Church building, also known as Old St. Andrews, is an historic building located at 317 Florida Avenue  in downtown Jacksonville, Florida. It was originally an Episcopal church, but closed when the parish relocated to the suburbs in 1960. On May 4, 1976, the edifice was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. In the 1990s it was purchased by the City of Jacksonville and turned over to the Jacksonville Historical Society , and now serves as the society&#39;s headquarters.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>St. Andrews Episcopal Church was designed by architect Robert S. Schuyler in the Gothic Revival style. Schuyler also designed St. Peters Church in Fernandina, built in 1881, as well as chapels in Waldo, Fairbanks, Pablo Beach, and Lake Santa Fe. St. Andrews was built in 1887 on a single level using brick masonry and contained a massive front corner tower with louvered belfry and steep spire roof. It stood at 317 Florida Avenue, now 317 A. Phillip Randolph Boulevard. The architecture was praised in the 1889 edition of Kings Handbook of Notable Episcopal Churches in the United States:</p><br>
<p>St. Andrews was the only major church in the city that survived the Great Fire of 1901.</p><br>
<h3>Economic boom</h3><br>
<p>Beginning with World War II, the area along the river north of the city center experienced an economic boom as dozens of industrial operations moved in. Liberty Ships were built to support the war effort. The Gator Bowl Stadium was erected in 1949 and construction began on the Mathews Bridge, which opened in 1953. Jacksonville Baseball Park began construction in 1954. The once quiet neighborhood had become undesirable, and residents began to move elsewhere. Residential development in the suburbs increased dramatically, and membership at St. Andrews fell to the point that it could no longer support itself. The Arlington Mission of the Episcopal Diocese of Florida was created in July 1959, and in January 1960, it was renamed St. Andrews and all the furnishings and memorials of the old St. Andrews were moved to 7801 Lone Star Road.</p><br>
<p>Old St. Andrews Episcopal Church was deconsecrated, closed and boarded up. The once thriving area around the church declined, and by the late 1970s the building had fallen into disuse and disrepair. Vacant for almost three decades, the building was a tremendous challenge for historic preservation. The situation changed with the arrival of the Jacksonville Jaguars NFL team, as the City of Jacksonville purchased most of the land around Jacksonville Municipal Stadium, including the Old St. Andrews site.</p><br>
<h2>Rebirth</h2><br>
<p>The City of Jacksonville gave the Jacksonville Historical Society the rights to the building if it could restore it. According to the JHS website, many people thought that the condition of the structure was beyond repair. However, a $242,000 preservation grant was secured from the state of Florida in 1996, and a challenge grant from the Weaver Foundation helped the JHS to raise $1 million to complete the project. Restoration began in 1996 and was completed on April 18, 1998, with the structure becoming the new home of the Jacksonville Historical Society. Since restoration the building is seen as one of the finest specimens of nineteenth-century architecture in Duval County, and it is a popular spot for meetings, weddings and other civic events. It was the site of the ESPN Super Bowl XXXIX party in January 2005.</p><br>
<p>The Hutchinson House is a historic home completed in 1908 in Tampa, Florida, United States. It is a three-story brick building in the Second Empire architecture. The building includes a high mansard roof and large porch with tall Corinthian columns.</p><br>
<p>It was built by Currie J. Hutchinson, a local merchant, and is one of the few structures of its style in Florida. It was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places on November 1, 1977 and is located at 304 Plant Avenue.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Hutchinson House was built by Mr. Currie Hutchinson. Construction began in 1906 and the building was finished in 1908. Most of the building materials were shipped from Hutchinson’s home state of Ohio. The masonry technique was rather unusual and allowed for a very tight mortar line in between the red bricks.</p><br>
<p>The exterior walls are approximately 18 inches thick of solid brick. The building even has a basement, which has remained dry for over 100 years, despite being situated less than 1/8 of a mile from the Tampa Bay. There are 5 working fireplaces, 3 on the first floor, two on the second floor and a stove in the basement. The total construction cost was reported to be approximately six thousand five hundred dollars. A small fortune back then.</p><br>
<p>The Hutchinson Mansion was occupied by the Hutchinson family while Mr. Hutchinson operated his pharmacy on Franklin Street in downtown Tampa.</p><br>
<p>It was next used as a hospital from approximately 1932 to 1946. Hutchinson House was then used as a rooming house until 1958 when it became the Pie Kappa Phi fraternity. It remained a fraternity house until 1977 the University of Tampa kicked all the fraternities off the campus and the Hutchinson house was left empty (and in very rough shape).</p><br>
<p>The University of Tampa sold the mansion to the City of Tampa. The City of Tampa sold the Hutchinson House to the Tampa Preservation Society, which commenced a major restoration of the building which continued for approximately two years.</p><br>
<p>In 1980, attorney William B. Plowman began negotiations with the Tampa Preservation Society to purchase the Hutchinson House. He purchased the building in 1981, and continued the restoration including improvements to the first, second and third floors, most notably restoring access to the third floor without interfering with the interior flow of the house. All historical aspects were strictly adhered to during all the restorations.</p><br>
<p>In 1989, Matt Powell rented space from Mr. Plowman. Matt loved the building so much that he was able to persuade Mr. Plowman to transfer the duties of the Hutchinson House to him in 1999. Matt Powell purchased the historical building and has continued to preserve, restore and maintain this magnificent building.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>One of the most interesting things about the Historical Hutchinson house is the architecture style. It is of the “Second Empire” style, which is reflected in the third Floor exterior walls. The third floor is contained inside the mansard roof. The mansard roof is made of slate. Each slate shingle was cut by hand, and has lasted over a century. The Hutchinson house has been through 100 years of hurricanes, heat and cold, and still remains in excellent condition.</p><br>
<p>Second Empire is an architectural style popular during the Victorian era, reaching its zenith between 1865 and 1880, and so named for the “French” elements in vogue during the era of the Second French Empire. The canonical example of Second Empire style is the Opera Garnier (formerly known as the "Paris Opera") in Paris. In the United States, the Second Empire style usually includes a steep, mansard roof; the roof being the most noteworthy link to the style’s French roots. This tower element could be of equal height of the top most floor. As was done with the Hutchinson House. The mansard roof crest was often topped with an iron trim, sometimes referred to as “cresting”.</p><br>
<p>The Hutchinson Mansion also prominently displays 3 separate chimneys extending 10 feet above the roof top. These chimneys service the 5 fireplaces, and stove.</p><br>
<p>In 2007, a replica of the original gas lantern was restored to the front yard. And the Hutchinson House Stone, seen above, was used as a stepping stone to make it easier to sit upon your horse.</p><br>
<h2>Landmark status</h2><br>
<p>The Hutchinson House has been a historical landmark building since 1977, when the United States Department of the Interior decided that due to the architecture, age, and condition of the building that it should be preserved as a historical landmark.</p><br>
<p>The Old People&#39;s Home  is a historic building in the V.M. Ybor neighborhood of Tampa, Florida. It is located at 1203 East 22nd Avenue. On October 17, 2000, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Built in 1924, the two story, Colonial Revival style building with a grand, columned portico along the main facade was primarily designed by Frank A. Winn, Jr. and A.H. Johnson. It was Tampa&#39;s first privately supported and purpose-built home for the care of the elderly and represented a major civic achievement for the community. The building is set on a 4.5 acre site which features several stately oak trees.</p><br>
<p>The building continues to operate as a residential elder-care facility per its original intent as The Home Association, Inc., a not-for-profit Senior Skilled Nursing Facility.</p><br>
<p>The Lewis House, also known as Spring House, is a historic home in Tallahassee, Florida, located north of I-10, at 3117 Okeeheepkee Road. It was built in 1954. On February 14, 1979, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. It was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for George Lewis II, President of the Lewis State Bank, and his wife Clifton. The National Trust for Historic Preservation describes its significance: "The novel hemicycle form of Spring House represents a late, and little-known, stage in Wright’s long, prolific career. Although there are approximately 400 intact houses attributed to Wright throughout the country, only a fraction were from his hemicycle series."</p><br>
<p>Over the past few decades the home had come into disrepair and with bricks falling from their mortar and wood rot. An institute was formed in to protect the house in 1996 but the first work project was not started until January 2013.</p><br>
<p>On April 18, 2012, the AIA&#39;s Florida Chapter placed the house on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.</p><br>
<p>In 2014, the National Trust for Historic Preservation included the house on its annual list of "America&#39;s Eleven Most Endangered Places." Spring House Institute is trying to save it.</p><br>
<p>First Presbyterian Church is an historic church in Tallahassee, Florida. It is located at 102 North Adams Street. The congregation was first organized on November 4, 1832 and the church building was built between 1835 and 1838, which makes it the oldest church in Tallahassee and the oldest building in Florida that&#39;s still being used for its original purpose.</p><br>
<p>The building was designed to serve as a sanctuary for women and children during American Indian attacks. Rifle slots are built into the foundation but are not visible from outside. On September 9, 1974, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Today, there are still services every Sunday at 10:45. There are estimated to be several hundred members of the congregation, with average attendance of just over two hundred persons. The congregation is part of the Presbyterian Church (USA), and is known for having and maintaining a progressive theological and social perspective through the years. Since 2008, First Presbyterian Church has been affiliated with The Covenant Network of Presbyterians, and supports the ordination of all qualified persons into both lay and ordained ministry, regardless of sexual orientation. For the past several years, First Presbyterian Church has been a sponsor of Pridefest. In 2009, the "Light from Light" campaign was born. As a part of this program, solar panels were added to the building, making First Presbyterian one of only a few churches nationwide to generate a portion of its own electricity. As of 2010, First Presbyterian Church was home to the second largest solar panel array in Leon County.</p><br>
<p>St. John&#39;s Episcopal Church is an historic church in Tallahassee, Florida. It is located at 211 North Monroe Street. On August 10, 1978, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>The church body was first constituted in 1829. Services were held in the old Leon County court house on Monroe Street from 1829 to 1837. From 1837 to 1879 services were held in first church building at the same site. This building was consecrated in 1838, but eventually burned down in 1879. Services resumed in the court house, which also eventually burned down, and then in the capitol building, during the erection of present Gothic style, red brick church, erected in 1880 and dedicated in 1888. This building still stands, with art glass and memorial glass windows, pipe organ, bronze memorial tablet, altar service, bronze memorial tablet, altar service, carved lectern, prie-dieu, carillon. The church owns its rectory.</p><br>
<p>The first pastor was Reverend Seneca G. Bragg from 1831–34, out of the Protestant Episcopal Theological Seminary, Alexandria, Va.</p><br>
<p>The present pastor is Revevernd Jeffery Alfriend (1925-), out of the Protestant Episcopal Theological Seminary, Alexandria, Va.</p><br>

<p>White Hall is a historic site on the campus of Bethune-Cookman University in Daytona Beach, Florida, United States. It is located at 640 Mary McLeod Bethune Boulevard . On July 15, 1992, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>White Hall is named after Thomas White, founder of the White Sewing Machine Company. Mr. White met Mary McLeod Bethune while vacationing in Florida. He became a trustee of the school (then known as the Daytona Educational and Industrial Training School) and financial supporter. White Hall was built in 1915 with classroom and office spaces. It closed in 2010 for renovations, and it reopened and was rededicated in August 2012. White Hall houses Bethune-Cookman Universitys presidents suite and administrative offices.</p><br>
<p>The Studebaker Building  is a historic site in St. Petersburg, Florida. It is located at 600 4th Street South. On July 5, 1985, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Built in 1925, the Studebaker Building is historically significant for its association with the Florida Land Boom of the 1920s and the relationship of the automobile industry and suburbanization. The building symbolizes the importance of the Studebaker automobile within that industry in the 1920s, particularly the Peninsular Motor Company of southwest Florida, the fourth largest Studebaker dealer in volume in the country by 1925. When the building opened, the company was the fourth largest Studebaker dealer in the world. The company employed 300 people, with 56 working in St. Petersburg&#39;s showroom. However, by 1926 the Peninsular Motor Company went bankrupt as a result of the collapse of the boom, and the Studebaker Building was closed.</p><br>
<p>Muncaster Fell is a fell at the far western edge of the Lake District National Park, in Cumbria, England. Muncaster Fell is a long, narrow ridge of land, approximately 1.2 km wide and 6 km long, lying between the River Mite to the north, and River Esk to the south. The fell rises from the coast near Ravenglass village to its highest point at Hooker Crag . The ridge then continues to the north-east, dropping gently to its furthest prominence at Silver Knott . The fell then falls away rapidly to the village of Eskdale Green at its north-eastern tip.</p><br>
<h2>Landscape</h2><br>
<p>The fell forms a long, low, yet steep-sided ridge that separates the southern portions of the valleys of Miterdale and Eskdale. The north-western slopes of the fell are characterised by steep crags and scree slopes, which drop abruptly to the fluvial floor of the Mite valley. The narrow-gauge Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway tracks cling to the lower sides of this rocky face. The south-eastern, Eskdale slopes are not much less steep, but are shallow enough to allow the cultivation of a number of forestry plantations. Woodland abounds at the southernmost tip of the fell, with natural deciduous woodland and invasive rhododendron stands competing for space. On the very south-western point of the fell stands Muncaster Castle, its grounds planted with a wide variety of plant species, including a dense copse of bamboo.</p><br>
<p>On the fell top the vegetation and landscape typifies the Cumbrian fell. A small tarn, Muncaster Tarn (GR: SD107978), sits amongst woodland on the slopes below the top of Hooker Crag. Much of the area between the crags and bogs is covered by moss, gorse, sedge and small clumps of bilberry bushes. In recent times, in common with much of the Lake District upland area, bracken has begun to take over, possibly due to a reduction in the number of sheep grazing on upland pasture.</p><br>
<p>Along the southern end of the fell ridge runs a straight track, climbing up past the tarn toward Hooker Crag. This is part of a Roman road which used to connect the large fort of Glannaventa near Ravenglass on the coast, approximately 2 km away, to the garrison at Hardknott Fort (known to the Romans as Mediobogdum) 14 km to the north-east, although the rest of the route along the ridge top has been lost. There is a small, low dolmen, which despite its stone age appearance is inscribed Ross&#39;s Camp 1883 on the top surface (GR: SD121987) and was apparently built by a shooting party of that date as a luncheon table.</p><br>
<p>Muncaster Fell is the subject of a chapter of Alfred Wainwright&#39;s walking guide book The Outlying Fells of Lakeland. He recommended a clockwise circuit starting from Muncaster Castle, following the ridge to Muncaster Head and returning along the lane south of the fell, and says that: "The supreme joy of Muncaster Fell is the delectable traverse of its ridge... Here is enchantment."</p><br>
<h2>Geology</h2><br>
<p>Muncaster Fell is composed almost entirely of granite and microgranite, belonging to the Late Ordovician Eskdale Intrusions. At the south-western end of the fell, between Ravenglass village and Muncaster Castle, is a restricted outcrop of hornfelsed lower Ordovician siltstones and sandstones, belonging to the Skiddaw Group, and andesite of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group.</p><br>
<p>Owing to its relatively steep-sided profile the fell is largely free of drift geology. The lowest slopes are generally covered in glacial diamicton derived from the igneous lithologies nearer the centre of the Lake District, and the steeper crags give rise to localised scree deposits. Between the crags along the top of the ridge small peat bogs are developed, the largest of these being Hooker Moss (GR: SD113984).</p><br>
<p>The Roosevelt School  is a historic school in Lake Wales, Florida. It is located at 115 E Street. On March 29, 2001, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. Originally this school served the African-American Community or the Northwest community in Lake Wales. Currently it is an ESE vocational school specifically designed to teach and train students in grades 6-12 with learning disabilities to adapt and excel in society</p><br>
<p>Roosevelt School - This school was completed in 1937 and named for Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Classes were held for grades 1 - 9. In 1939, it became a full fledged senior high school. In May 1940 the first commencement exercises were held with 13 students being granted diplomas. In 1950, the addition of Unit G was made; in 1955, Units A, B, D, E, were added and the gymnasium was constructed in 1957. Enrollment during the 1960s reached over 1,300. Roosevelt served African-American students from Frostproof as well as Lake Wales.</p><br>
<p>Roosevelt Academy - In the early 1980s Roosevelt was converted to a vocational school and is part of the Polk County School System.</p><br>

<p>The Security Building  is a historic site in Miami, Florida. It is located at 117 Northeast 1st Avenue. On January 4, 1989, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. The building has 16 floors with a height of 225 ft and was built from 1926 to 1927.</p><br>
<h2>Design and appearance</h2><br>
<p>The Security Building faces west onto NE 1st Avenue. It is located in mid-block with buildings on either side. Those buildings are considerably shorter than the Security Building. The building maintains a zero-foot setback, and the entry doors open directly onto the sidewalk. There are no landscape features on the property. The building is composed of a main block parallel to the street, and a second block connected perpendicularly that extends to the east.</p><br>
<p>With only a 50-foot frontage, the architect made a grand statement by creating an almost temple-like base, consisting of the first three stories. Engaged pilasters, that also frame the center bay, articulate the corners creating three distinct bays. Spandrels between the floors are bronze and feature relief ornament. The pilasters carry the entablature, with the name “Security Building” in incised letters. A dentilled molding ornaments the cornice that terminates this division of the building.</p><br>
<p>The fourth floor begins the transition to the high-rise portion of the building. Stone panels with a similar relief accent the corners and separate the bays. Above the windows of the fourth floor is another projecting element, a stringcourse that is ornamented with a guilloche pattern in relief.</p><br>
<p>Floors five through thirteen continue the three bays with window arrangements that are grouped in pairs on each of the end bays, and are grouped in three in the center bay, emphasizing the importance of the center bay to the entire composition. The windows are a metal casement type.</p><br>
<p>The fourteenth and fifteenth floors function as the base for the great mansard roof, which terminates the building. To balance the composition, the two floors are treated as if they were one by the use of a round arch at the fifteenth floor that is carried by the pilasters of the fourteenth floor, so that the two floors are visually united.</p><br>
<p>A bracketed cornice separates the building from the roof form that is so decidedly different from roof treatments in Miami during this period. A mansard roof is a double-pitched roof with a steep upper slope. The mansard roof was named for architect Francois Mansart (1598–1666). Mansart worked in the seventeenth century and introduced the roof form that extended attic space to provide additional usable area. The mansard roof is a character-defining feature of the Second Empire style that was named after Napoleon III, who took on major building projects in Paris during the eighteenth century. The mansard roof of the Security Building is clad in copper and terminates in a series of antefixae. A series of arches containing windows and serving as dormers penetrate the roof. Bull’s-eye windows are placed between the arched windows. An eight-sided cupola that extends from the center of the roof is fenestrated on each side with a multi-paned arched window. The dome of the cupola also is clad in copper.</p><br>
<p>The north and south ends of the building are not ornamented. The windows are a</p><br>
<p>metal casement type. The quoining on the corners of the west elevation is repeated in the north and south elevations of the building. The extension to the east is flat-roofed, and is terminated by a defined cornice. The majority of the wall surface contains windows that are either square or rectangular in shape. They contain metal casement windows.</p><br>
<h2>Present</h2><br>
<p>Today, the security building is an upscale urban residential building with charming loft style units. The entrance level, where the iconic "vault" is located, is a contemporary exhibition gallery and a gathering platform for intellectuals, artists and scientists. The so-called Downtown Arts and Science Salon (DASS) is a hybrid between TED Talks and a local social club. DASS seeks to strengthen the Downtown Miami community by providing a space for intelligent conversation and entertainment. The salon hosts a wide variety of events with local and international scientists, artists, innovators, writers and pioneers in topics ranging from archaeology and medicine to urban planning and journalism, from robotics to literature and the opera. It also is an attractive venue for activities such as language immersion courses, wine-tastings, tango and fencing lessons. DASS Members and friends also participate in the rich cultural life around Downtown. The penthouse of the building is the home for Seza Gulec, MD, an academic surgeon and the founder of the American Cancer Care Institute. The American Cancer Care Institute (ACCI) is a scientific and charitable organization that performs and supports cancer research, organizes educational events and provides support for cancer care at institutional and individual levels.</p><br>
<p>The Fire Station No. 2  is a historic fire station in Miami, Florida. It is located at 1401 North Miami Avenue. On January 4, 1989, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>A proposal for it to be designated as a City of Miami historic site was prepared by the, and it was so designated.</p><br>
<p>The building is now owned by a community redevelopment agency (or a "CRA") called the Omni CRA. Ownership was transferred from the Miami. In late 2011, the Omni CRA launched a US$2M renovation in order to refurbish the building and use it as the CRA&#39;s main office. The nearby Omni Center was purchased in October 2011 by the Genting Group in an effort to establish a Las Vegas-style gambling operation. The vacant Fire Station No. 2 was constructed in 1926 by architect August C. Geiger, the tenth registered architect in the Florida. The Groundbreaking Ceremony for Firehouse # 2 will take place on Monday, December 19, 2011 at 10:00 am. It will be held on-site at 1401 N. Miami Ave in Miami, FL.</p><br>
<p>The Plymouth Congregational Church is a historic church located at 3429 Devon Road corner of Main Highway in the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami, Florida, United States. The land was donated by George Spalding and George E. Merrick. The architect was Clinton MacKenzie. Completed in 1917, the church was built by a single man, Felix Rebom, using only a hatchet, a trowel, a plumb line, and a T-square. Its architecture was modeled after the old Spanish missions of Mexico. On April 18, 2012, the AIA&#39;s Florida Chapter placed Plymouth Congregational Church on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places. On July 23, 1974, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<p>Circa 1941, the WPA-sponsored American Guide Series book about Miami and environs described the church: "PLYMOUTH CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, at Ingraham Hwy. and Devon Rd. is a reproduction of a Mexican mission. The interior of the vine-covered stone building is constructed on the lines of a basilica and the doors are said to have come from a Spanish mission in Mexico. In one of the doors is a round cat-hole, now covered with screen. Many outdoor weddings have been performed at the pulpit in the walled garden."</p><br>
<p>Chesham is an unincorporated community within the town of Harrisville in Cheshire County, New Hampshire, United States. Part of the village is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Chesham Village District, while the southernmost portions are included in the Pottersville District, also listed on the National Register.</p><br>
<p>Chesham began as a nucleus of agricultural development in the early 19th century; the area saw increased development with the arrival of the railroad in 1880. This included the construction of the depot, and the adaptation by George Bemis of his property (across the street from the depot) as a livery stable. The area was given its name by George Chase, a summer visitor whose nearby estate in Dublin was called Chesham. The area&#39;s economic activity began to subside after the end of railroad service in 1936.</p><br>
<p>Chesham has an elementary school called Wells Memorial School. It has about 55 pupils up to grade 6.</p><br>
<p>The Community Church of Harrisville and Chesham was formed from Chesham Baptist Church and Harrisville Congregational Church. Chesham Baptist Church dates back to 1785. The church building was originally built in 1797, re-modeled in 1830, and again re-modeled in 1844.</p><br>
<p>The Anderson–Frank House  is a historic home in Tampa, Florida, United States. It is located at 341 Plant Avenue. On April 22, 1982, it was added to the USA National Register of Historic Places. The architects credited with designing the house are Francis J. Kennard and Michael J. Miller.</p><br>
<p>The house was built for James B. Anderson during 1898-1901. It is a two-and-a-half-story house which was deemed "significant as one of the best examples of Colonial Revival style architecture in Tampa, Florida....he house is a masterly example of Colonial Revival design, subtly combining materials, textures, and patterns in a free but harmonic relationship to each other." The house&#39;s assymetrical design and a wraparound porch are elements of Queen Anne architecture.</p><br>
<p>Blackburne House is a 18th century Grade II listed building located on the east side of Hope Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, England. Originally a private house, it became a girls&#39; school and, after a period of dereliction, it is now used as a training and resource centre for women.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The house was built in 1788 for John Blackburne, at a time when this was in the countryside outside Liverpool. Blackburne originally came from Warrington. He was a wealthy salt refiner and a supporter of the slave trade. In 1760 he had been Lord Mayor of Liverpool.</p><br>
<p>In 1844 the house was bought from Blackburne by George Holt. Holt was a cotton broker and merchant, and an abolitionist. He was also a supporter of womens rights, and on 5 August 1844 he opened the house as Blackburne House Girls School with a Latin motto which translates as: "Born not for ourselves alone but for the whole of the world." Blackburne House was the first school for girls in Liverpool, and was sited directly opposite the Mechanics Institute, a school for boys on the other side of Hope Street. Holt was the director and president of the school until he died in 1861, when the school was taken over by the Mechanics Institute.</p><br>
<p>The building was extended in 1874–76 by W. I. Mason, who added a wing to the north and a central tower.</p><br>
<p>In 1905 it came under the management of Liverpool City Council, and continued as a school until it closed in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Current use</h2><br>
<p>The building lay empty until 1994 when the Women&#39;s Technology and Education Centre commissioned its conversion into a training and resource centre.</p><br>
<p>Amongst other things the building is used as an examination centre by the Open University. The building is currently a Social Enterprise, running businesses (cafe, nursery, construction company, conference centre, graphic design company) whose profits support a women&#39;s college - providing education for local women, including hard to reach and disadvantaged students.</p><br>
<p>It was announced on the 2nd February 2016 in the Liverpool Echo that the old Toxeth Community College would be re-decorated for Blackburn House&#39;s new Community College not only for women, but for men as well. This new centre would open in December 2017.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>Blackburne House is constructed in brick with stone dressings and a slate roof. It has two storeys, a basement and an attic. Its Hope Street front has seven bays. The central bay projects forward and is surmounted by a domical roof with a clock face and an iron railing on its crest. The ground floor contains a rusticated round-headed entrance flanked by paired columns supporting an entablature and a pierced balcony. In the first floor is a three-light window with a tympanum, and rusticated quoins. In the attic floor are three round-headed windows, flat pilasters and a segmental pediment. The second and sixth bays consist of two-storeyed canted bays containing sash windows with architraves. In the attics are two round-headed windows. The other bays have three-light windows with pilasters and tympani containing carvings of foliage and busts in the ground floor. The windows in the first floor of these bays are surrounded by pilasters, entablatures and pediments. On the right side of the building is the entrance to the original house. It has four bays and includes a portico with four Ionic columns. On 14 March 1975 the house was designated it as a Grade II listed building.</p><br>
<p>Liodora  is a small village in Arcadia, the central region of the Peloponnese area of Greece.</p><br>
<p>Liodora is part of the Municipal Unit of Iraia, which belongs to the Municipality of Gortynia. It is situated on a low hill near the left bank of the river Ladon, 5 km northeast of Tripotamia, 8 km west of Paloumpa and 17 km northwest of Dimitsana, the capital of the Municipality.</p><br>
<h2>Geography</h2><br>
<p>Liodora is situated in a hilly plateau and features several hills. The view to the south are blocked by a mountain slope. Kryonero has several valleys around the area, which also contains forests, grasslands, farmlands and bushes.</p><br>
<h2>Information</h2><br>
<p>Its main production are olives, citrus, fruits, vegetables and other crops, as well as life stock products. The village can be seen as far as to the north and east.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The name Liodora was probably derived from Heliodorus (Greek: Ηλιόδωρος) or Leodorus (Greek: Λεόδωρος), an ancient ruler or nobleman of the area, or it is a derivative of the word "Herodora" (Greek: Ηροδώρα), denoting Hera, the wife of Zeus, giving gifts. About 5 km to the south of the contemporary village was Ancient Irea, a city built next to the Alfeios River, close to Ancient Olympia. In the Middle Ages, the village was the capital of the entire region, which also bared its name.</p><br>
<p>The location of the lost ancient city of Melaneai (Greek: Μελανεαί) is believed to be in the vicinity of contemporary Liodora. Outside the village there is also an ancient cheese factory.</p><br>
<h2>Population</h2><br>
<p>The permanent population of Liodora is currently around 50 people, a number which is more than doubled during holiday seasons. Following is the evolution of the official census figures on the village&#39;s population.</p><br>
<p>Windmill Island Gardens is a municipal park located in the city of Holland, Michigan. It is home to the 251-year-old windmill De Zwaan, the only authentic, working Dutch windmill in the United States.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1964, the City of Holland purchased the windmill De Zwaan from a retired miller in the town of in the province of Noord Brabant, the Netherlands. The windmill was shipped from the Netherlands to the port of Muskegon, Michigan on the ship Prins Willem van Oranje. It was brought by truck from Muskegon to its present location on Windmill Island. Reconstruction of the mill began in 1964 and the park opened in April 1965. The island, formerly farmed by Henry F. Koop, was chosen because of the favorable wind conditions there. Although originally a peninsula, a manmade canal turned the land into an artificial island. Before the arrival of De Zwaan, it was known as Hyma Island.</p><br>
<p>On April 10, 1965, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands became the first visitor to the park and presided over the grand opening. His ticket and the ten guilder bill he used to purchase it are still on display in the park today.</p><br>
<h2>Windmill Island Gardens today</h2><br>
<p>The park includes approximately 36 acre of land along the Macatawa River and the swamp leading into Lake Macatawa.</p><br>
<p>Each year Windmill Island Gardens hosts approximately 55,000 tourists. The park is open daily from late April until early October, with the most visitors in early May during the Tulip Time Festival. Over 100,000 tulips are planted on the island each year in beautiful gardens filled with flowers summer through autumn. In addition to the windmill, the park includes replicas of several historic buildings in the Netherlands. In the summer months, visitors may also see the klompen dance, traditionally performed by local high school students during the annual Tulip Time Festival.</p><br>
<p>After Tulip Time season, tourists continue to enjoy the Islands attractions, and the park frequently hosts weddings and events. The Islands celebration pavilion can seat up to 300 people. Wedding ceremonies are typically held outside the park or in the Island&#39;s gardens, with receptions and banquets taking place in the pavilion.</p><br>

<p>Great Rigg is a fell in the English Lake District, situated 7 kilometres  north-north-west of Ambleside and reaching a height of 766 metres . It is most often climbed as part of the Fairfield horseshoe, a 16-km circular walk which starts and finishes in Ambleside. The fell’s name originates from the Old English Language with ‘Rigg’ meaning a bumpy or knobbly ridge.</p><br>
<h2>Topography</h2><br>
<p>Great Rigg is mostly without merit, being just an undulation on one of Fairfield’s southern ridges; with 31 metres of prominence it just qualifies as a Hewitt. It is best seen from the south-west near Grasmere where from that angle its summit seems to dominate the valley.</p><br>
<p>The fell is rocky on its eastern side as Stone Cove drops to Rydal Beck; on its western flank it is mostly grassy as it falls away to Tongue Gill; to the north and south are ridges which continue to other fells, with Fairfield being 1.5 kilometres (0.9 miles) away to the north while Heron Pike lies 2.5 kilometres (1.6 miles) to the south. There is a third less-significant ridge going south-west towards Grasmere which has the ‘Wainwright’ fell of Stone Arthur on its shoulder overlooking Grasmere.</p><br>
<h2>Geology</h2><br>
<p>Volcaniclastic sandstone of the Esk Pike Formation makes up the summit area. Beneath is the dacitic lapilli-tuff of the Lincomb Tarns Formation.</p><br>
<h2>Ascents</h2><br>
<p>As mentioned Great Rigg is usually climbed as part of the Fairfield horseshoe (Fairfield lies close by to the north). However, a direct ascent of sorts can be done from Grasmere up the south-west ridge taking in Stone Arthur on the way. This walk can be continued to Fairfield and Seat Sandal before returning to Grasmere to complete a 10-km circular walk.</p><br>
<h2>Summit</h2><br>
<p>The summit is crowned by a substantial cairn, which is named on large-scale maps as Greatrigg Man. There are good views of the Lakeland mountains to the west, a distinctive feature of the outlook being the large number of lakes and tarns that are in view, with ten sizeable bodies of water well seen.</p><br>
