Crescent Park Looff Carousel, also known as Crescent Park Carousel or more officially as Crescent Park Looff Carousel and Shelter Building, is a National Historic Landmark in East Providence, Rhode Island.
The hand-carved carousel was built in 1895 by Charles I. D. Looff at Crescent Park Amusement Park in Riverside, Rhode Island. The ride's fifty-foot platform contains sixty-one horses, one camel, two single coaches, and two double chariots. Fifty-six of the horses are jumpers.]]> http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/crescent-park-looff-carousel/ http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/crescent-park-looff-carousel/ Tue, 16 Apr 2013 12:02:52 -0700 http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/crescent-park-looff-carousel/ 41.75665000 -71.35936200 <![CDATA[Socialist Hall]]>

The Socialist Hall in Butte, Montana is one of the few socialist halls remaining in the United States. Erected in 1916, when the Socialist movement was strong in the city, it was active for only a few years until socialism fell out of favor amidst persecution of socialists and labor unionists including the Anaconda Road Massacre and the lynching of Frank Little.
During its brief time of service, the Industrial Workers of the World met here, also holding meetings in Butte's Finlander Hall.
Today a sporting goods shop occupies the first floor of the former Socialist Hall. The building is physically outside the boundaries of the Butte-Anaconda-Walkerville National Historic Landmark District, but is included with it for documentation.]]>

Buckland Station

@ 2013-04-11 06:48:34
Samual S. Buckland settled along the Carson River in 1859 and began ranching. His early establishment served as an important way station for pioneer travelers on the Overland Route. It was one of the earliest ranches in the area, supplying emigrants, ranchers, travelers and the soldiers at nearby Fort Churchill. The Overland Stage Company kept horses at the station and the Pony Express stopped here for change of mounts.
As Fort Churchill was dismantled, Mr. Buckland salvaged materials from the fort buildings to build the two-story house that occupies the site today. The Buckland family lived in the house, and rented rooms to travelers.
Buckland Station was acquired by Nevada Division of State Parks in 1994. The Division of State Parks plans many improvements for the building and grounds and will soon develop interpretive displays.
Buckland Station is located on the Carson River at Weeks Bridge, one-half mile south of the Fort Churchill entrance road.]]>

Triumph-Palace (Russian: Триу́мф-Пала́с, transliterated as Triumf Palas) is the tallest apartment building in Moscow and all of Europe. It is sometimes called the Eighth Sister because it is similar in appearance to the Seven Sisters skyscrapers built in Moscow by Joseph Stalin through the 1950s. Construction began in 2001. The 57-storey building, containing about 1,000 luxury apartments[citation needed], was topped out on 20 December 2003, making it Europe's tallest skyscraper at 264.1 metres (866 ft) until the inauguration in 2007 of Moscow's 268 metre Naberezhnaya Tower block C.]]>

Fenton Art Glass Company is the largest manufacturer
of handmade colored glass in the United States.

The Fenton Art Glass Company was founded in 1905 by
Frank L. Fenton and his brother John W. Fenton in an old glass
factory building in Martins Ferry, Ohio. They began by painting decorations on glass blanks made by other glass manufacturers.
Soon, being unable to get the glass they needed, they decided to produce their own glass. The first glass from the new Fenton factory
in Williamstown, West Virginia, was made on January 2, 1907.]]>

Suure-Lähtru manor was built in 1775–1778 by Karl Gustav von Baranoff. The manor is of early classicist style and its rococo and classicist elements are seen in its interior design even today.
The manor is surrounded by a romantic park with old trees and a pond. It is the perfect place for having a picnic or organising open air events. Good to know: On the ground floor of the manor you will find a tiny museum founded by the members of the household – it is dedicated to the history of the building. Next to the building you will find a hunting hall restored in its original form and with its original brick floor. This is a room for organising gatherings of larger groups of people.

The house is located in West of Estonia. It is 90 kilometers from Tallinn and 25 kilometers from Haapsalu.]]>

The Howard Pyle Studios are two historic buildings used for painting and teaching by illustrator Howard Pyle. The studios are located in a densely populated neighborhood near Brandywine Park and the Delaware Avenue Historic District. The building used by Pyle as his own studio was built in 1883, mainly in brick with a Tudor Revival half timbered gable. The smaller studio, that Pyle used for teaching, was built in a similar style in 1900. After Pyle's death in 1911, the buildings were owned by Stanley Arthurs, until 1950, and then by Ellen duPont Wheelwright until 1964. The Studio Group acquired the studios in 1964 and continue to use them as art studios. In 1978, the property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places]]>

The Frank E. Schoonover Studios comprise a historic building that was used by the students of illustrator Howard Pyle, including the original tennants Frank Schoonover, N.C. Wyeth, Harvey Dunn, and Clifford Ashley. Philanthropist and art collector Samuel Bancroft, Jr. paid for the building which was designed by the prominent local architect Capt. E.L. Rice, Jr. and built in 1905 in a simplified Queen Anne or Shavian Manorial style. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

Schoonover remained in his studio, Number 1, until the end of his career, but the other original tenants moved out within ten years. Other artists moved in but Schoonover eventually became the sole owner of the property. After his death in 1972, a group of artists restored the building.]]>

The Mobile Launcher Platform (MLP) was one of three two-story structures used by NASA to support the Space Shuttle stack during its transportation from the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) to Launch Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center, as well as serve as the vehicle's launch platform. NASA's three MLPs were originally constructed for the Apollo Program to launch the Saturn V rockets in the 1960s and 1970s, and remained in service through the end of the shuttle program in 2011 with alternations.

Each MLP weighs 8,230,000 pounds (3,730,000 kg) unloaded and roughly 11,000,000 pounds (5,000,000 kg) with an unfueled Shuttle aboard, measures 160 feet (49 m) by 135 feet (41 m), and is 25 feet (7.6 m) high. It was carried by a crawler-transporter.

Of three formerly functional windmills used within the city borders this windmill is the only one preserved. Initially this construction was known as the Trei windmill, after the name of its builder and owner. The windmill was built in 1899 and it was used until the beginning of World War II. The restoration of the windmill began in 1972 and it was reopened as a coffeehouse in 1974. The aim of the restoration was to preserve the initial constructions of the Dutch type stone windmill. Good to know: the windmill was declared an architectural monument of national importance. The windmill is 17 m high and if we include its wings then its highest point reaches 24 meters of height.]]>

The Supreme Court of the State of Florida is the highest court in the U.S. state of Florida. The Supreme Court consists of seven judges: the Chief Justice and six Justices who are appointed by the Governor to 6-year terms and remain in office if retained in a general election near the end of each term.[1] The Court is the final arbiter of Florida law, and its decisions are binding authority for all other Florida state courts.

Established upon statehood in 1845, the court is headquartered across the street from the state capitol in Tallahassee. Throughout the court's history it has undergone many reorganizations as Florida's population has steadily grown. The Florida Supreme Court has heard many cases of note, including the 2000 presidential election Florida recount case Bush v. Gore.]]>

A sod roof or turf roof is a traditional Scandinavian type of green roof covered with sod on top of several layers of birch bark on gently sloping wooden roof boards. Until the late 19th century it was the most common roof on rural log houses in large parts of Scandinavia. Its distribution roughly corresponds to the distribution of the log building technique in the vernacular architecture of Finland and the Scandinavian peninsula. The load of approximately 250 kg per m² of a sod roof is an advantage because it helps to compress the logs and make the walls more draught-proof. In winter the total load may well increase to 400 or 500 kg per m² because of snow. Sod is also a reasonably efficient insulator in a cold climate. The birch bark underneath ensures that the roof will be waterproof.]]>

Officially known today as the Primorsky Stairs, they were originally known as the Boulevard steps, the Giant Staircase, or the Richelieu steps.

The top step is 12.5 metres (41 ft) wide, and the lowest step is 21.7 metres (70.8 ft) wide. The staircase is 27 metres high, and extends for 142 metres, but it gives the illusion of greater length.]]>

The Roman Baths, northeast of the nose Charlottenhof in the park of Sanssouci in Potsdam, reflect the Italiensehnsucht ("Sehnsucht/longing for Italy") of its creator Frederick William IV of Prussia. Various Roman and antiquated Italian styles were melded into the architectural ensemble created between 1829-1840.
While still a crown prince Friedrich Wilhelm had first Charlottenhof (1826-1829) and then the adjunct Roman Baths built. Coming up with numerous ideas and drawing many actual drafts, the artistically-gifted heir to the throne had great influence on the plans of the architect, Karl Friedrich Schinkel. Charged with managing the actual construction was Ludwig Persius, a student of Schinkel's.]]>
