Central Congregational Church (Eastport, Maine)

The Central Congregational Church is a historic church at 26 Middle Street in Eastport, Maine, USA. The meeting house was built in 1829, and is a remarkably sophisticated example of Federal style architecture for what was then a frontier community. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. Description and history The Central Congregational Church of Eastport is set on the west side of Middle Street, midway between Boyton and Key Streets. It is a gable-roofed wood frame structure, with clapboard siding and a stone foundation. Its main facade, facing east is symmetrically organized, with three bays of entrances demarcated by pilasters rising through the gallery level to a cornice, above which is the pedimented gable with an eyebrow window at its center. A square tower is set just back from the front, with a tall first stage that has a clock near the top, with an octagonal belfry as the second stage. The belfry has louvered openings framed by keystoned arches set on impost blocks, with small gables above, surrounding the base of an octagonal steeple. The interior is largely unaltered, and of high quality. A gallery lines three sides of the interior, with the fourth highlighted by an arch with elaborate drapery moulding. The pulpit stands before the arch, and the ground floor is otherwise lined with bench pews. The Congregational Church was built in 1828 and dedicated in February, 1829 for a congregation established in 1819. It was Eastport's second congregation, the first following Unitarianism, while this group followed a more traditional Trinitarian theology. The church was apparently designed and building supervised by Daniel Low, a member of the building committee about whom nothing is known. The building's only major alteration is the reconstruction of its steeple after the original was blown off in 1869; the clock was added at the time. The building is now owned by the Tides Institute & Museum of Art of Eastport, Maine and is being repurposed as an historic space. The small congregation continues to meet at the church building on Sunday mornings during the summer months.

Charlotte County Court House

The Charlotte County Court House (French: Palais de justice du comté de Charlotte) is a former court house located in St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Canada. It served as the local seat of the Court of Queen's Bench of New Brunswick. It was the oldest court house in Canada still in continuous use until 2016, when court cases stopped being heard in St. Andrews. History The court house was constructed in 1840 adjacent to the Charlotte County Gaol, and was designed by architect Thomas Berry. The building features a pedimented portico, onto which a large Royal coat of arms was added in 1858 by Charles Kennedy. In its early years, the building was a focal point for local activities such as elections, fairs, parades, and official visits. National Historic Site The building was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1981, as the best preserved example in New Brunswick of the typical mid-19th century Maritime courthouse. It was subsequently also designated under the provincial Historic Sites Protection Act in 1997. See also Charlotte County Archives References

Eastport City Hall

The Eastport City Hall, originally built as the Boynton High School, is an historic municipal building at 78 High Street in Eastport, Maine. Built in 1847 to a design by Gridley James Fox Bryant, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. It served as a school until 1917, and has housed the city's offices since 1974. It has been converted to housing sometime between 2020 and 2025. Description and history Eastport City Hall is set at the southwest corner of Boynton and High Streets, in a predominantly residential area west of the city's main waterfront area. It is a 2-1/2 story rectangular wood frame structure, with a gable roof, clapboard siding, and a brick foundation. Its main entrance is now on the long south side, although it was probably on the eastern street-facing facade when used as a school. The eastern facade now has a windowless first level, and three round-arch sash windows on the second level. The building has wooden quoining blocks at the corners, and bracketed eaves and gables, both markers of the Italianate style. The ground floor, originally a single classroom space, has been divided into offices, while the upstairs, also originally a single classroom, is now used as a meeting space. The building was built in 1846, replacing the Old South School, which had been destroyed by fire. It was one of three works in Eastport commissioned by Boston architect Gridley James Fox Bryant, and is the only one to survive. The building was used as a school until 1917, when a new high school was opened. From 1921 to 1926 the building housed a laundry, and from 1927 to 1937 George Pearse Ennis ran a summer branch of his New York–based School of Art in the building. The town then leased the building for a variety of community purposes, and from 1946 to 1951 it was leased by the local chapter of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Thereafter it was returned to an academic use, housing the high school's industrial arts program. In 1974 the building was adapted for use as a city hall, a role it no longer serves. Most of the building's original interior decorative features were lost when the building was used as a laundry.

Eel River Converter Station

The Eel River Converter Station is a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter station in Eel River Crossing, New Brunswick, Canada; it is the first operative HVDC station in the world equipped with thyristors. The Eel River Converter Station was the first operating fully solid-state HVDC converter station in the world, although some stations in Europe had mixed thyristor valves in with their original mercury-arc valves. The design and equipment for the Eel River HVDC station was provided by General Electric with its commissioning being completed in 1972. The Eel River Converter Station consists of two separate 12-pulse bidirectional solid-state non-synchronous HVDC ties of 4800 thyristors (each nominally rated 160 MW) connecting 230-kV transmission systems of Hydro-Québec and NB Power. The converter station has a nominal throughput rating of 40 MW to 320 MW and an overload capability of up to 350 MW. The station was built to provide Hydro-Québec with its first major power interconnection with the remainder of eastern North America to enable export of surplus energy made available by the completion of the Churchill Falls hydro-electric project in Labrador. For the first thirteen years of its operation, Eel River operated at a capacity factor of over 100%, making it the most heavily used HVDC station in the world. A report by New Brunswick System Operator in 2009 said: Eel River HVDC was commissioned in 1972 and was built as the world's first solid state back to back converter stations. There has been no major refurbishment done to the station except for the replacement of the converter transformers in the mid-1980s due to a design defect. A recent engineering study of the Eel River facility recommended the replacement of the HVDC converter stations controls and the upgrades of the air cooled thyristor valves with conventional liquid cooled thyristor valves. Both projects would require multiple years to complete. The planning is underway for this project. Upgrade Eel River Converter Station was successfully upgraded by ABB and went into operation in November 2014. The station was named an IEEE Milestone in 2011. References External links G.

Poste tête-bêche d'Eel River

Le Poste tête-bêche d'Eel River est un poste électrique à haute tension courant continu en tête-bêche (back-to-back en anglais), c'est-à-dire que l'onduleur et le redresseur de la liaison sont situés dans le même poste électrique, localisé à Eel River Crossing au Canada. Il a été mis en service en juillet 1972 par General Electric. C'est la première installation à tension continue commerciale utilisant des convertisseurs à thyristors en lieu et place des convertisseurs à diodes à vapeur de mercure. Le poste réalise une interconnexion entre les réseaux électriques du Québec et du Nouveau-Brunswick qui ont certes la même fréquence mais ne sont pas synchrones. L'IEEE considère officiellement, la mise en service du poste comme l'une des dates clés pour le génie électrique. Histoire Le poste réalise une interconnexion entre les réseaux électriques du Québec et du Nouveau-Brunswick qui ont certes la même fréquence mais ne sont pas synchrones. Cela permet de relier deux lignes de 230 kilovolt du réseau québécois avec le reste du continent américain. Au départ, il est exploité par Hydro Québec et Énergie NB. Un des objectifs du projet est de permettre le transport de l'énergie et de la puissance produite par la centrale de Churchill Falls. Des valves à thyristors ont déjà été expérimentées en Suède et en Grande-Bretagne, toutefois Eel River est la première installation avec uniquement des thyristors. En 2014, ABB renouvelle l'équipement de commande et de protection du poste pour 30 millions de dollars. Il est exploité par Hydro Québec et Énergie NB. Données techniques Le poste utilise une configuration bipolaire. Chaque valve est formée de cinq modules en série, chacun dispose de dix niveaux de thyristors, chaque niveau ayant quatre thyristors en parallèle.

Fredericton City Hall

The Fredericton City Hall is the meeting place of the Fredericton City Council in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada. The three-storey building was constructed between 1875 and 1876 by architects McKean and Fairweather and built by H. B. Crosby and O. M. Campbell in the Second Empire style. It is located near Phoenix Square in Downtown Fredericton. The building was declared a National Historic Site of Canada on November 23, 1984 because its imposing exterior and the many functions it has performed illustrate the building's importance to the community. Moreover, it is the oldest municipal hall in Atlantic Canada still used for civic administration, and the building is distinguished by the use of its basement as a market before 1951, a function rarely combined with municipal halls by the late 19th century. Between 1883 and 1971, the Fredericton Police was headquartered here. References

Fredericton High School

Fredericton High School is a public secondary school located in the city of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada that serves students under grades 9-12. The current principal is Peter Batt. With a student enrollment of 2,136 during the 2022-2023 school year, Fredericton High School is the largest grade school in the province. History When the city of Fredericton was initially laid out in 1758, city planners set aside a plot of land in the downtown region that was intended to become a school. That school was incorporated in 1790 as the College of New Brunswick and was intended to be a boarding school, patterned after the boys' public schools in England. In 1829 when King's College opened in Fredericton, the school was renamed to the Collegiate Grammar School, and was supported by the college. In 1871, the Free School Act was enacted, and the school again changed its name, this time to the Collegiate High School. At this time it became a preparatory school for King's College, which by then had become the University of New Brunswick. FHS copes with the Syrian exodus In July 2016, Fredericton High School attracted media attention after The Rebel obtained internal documents discussing the transitional challenges of hosting new students fleeing the Syrian Civil War. Said administrator Chantal Lafargue, We are living in a province where there are no official EAL (English as an alternative language) courses for high school, no alternate programming for war-affected youth, no personnel that have designated roles, like translator-interpreters, for example to help us settle youth down, make them feel at ease and help them navigate a whole new set of cultural and social norms. Canadian Minister of Immigration John McCallum has said that while the refugee program is a federal responsibility, schools are a responsibility of the provinces.
