Fleck/Paterson House

Fleck/Paterson House is a historic building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Built in 1903 as a private residence, it has since served a number of functions, and currently serves as the Algerian Embassy to Canada since 2002. History The house was built between 1901 and 1903 by Ottawa lumber baron J.R. Booth who built it for his daughter Gertrude and her husband Andrew Fleck. It was designed by John W.H. Watts, who also designed Booth House. Gertrude Fleck lived there until her death in 1940 when it was purchased by Senator Norman Paterson who lived in it until his death in 1983. After Paterson's death, the house was bought by developers who hoped to turn it into a retirement home. These efforts fell through, however, and the house was left abandoned for a number of years. It fell victim to vandalism and water damage before being bought by local developer Robert Van Eyk in 1989 for some $1.3 million with the plan to turn it into a bed and breakfast. However, since the building was zoned only for residential purposes, the city blocked this plan. In 1992, the building was sold to Maharishi Heaven on Earth Development Corp. for just over a million dollars. They hoped to turn the structure into a meditation centre and headquarters of the Natural Law Party of Canada. Extensive renovations, reportedly costing almost two million dollars, were undertaken and the building was fully restored. Algerian embassy In 2002, the Maharishi Corp. sold the building for $2.95 million to Algeria. This was one of the highest prices ever paid for a house in Ottawa, and the highest price ever paid for a heritage home in the city. See also Algeria–Canada relations References

Eagle's Nest Park

Eagle's Nest Park is a scenic lookout in the town of Bancroft, Ontario, Canada. It is built on the top of a sheer rock face and overlooks the northern portions of the town, the York River and Bancroft Airport. The name comes from a likely apocryphal story that takes place in 1883. Mr. and Mrs. Gaebel were in their yard when they heard the screams of a child that an eagle was attempting to carry off. The eagle was frightened off and the child unharmed, but the Gaebel's decided they should remove the eagle to prevent such attacks in the future. They lowered their son, 12-year-old William, down to the nest that was in a fir tree on the cliff face. He destroyed the eggs and the eagle left, never to return. Eagles were reported to have used the site in the past, but the last recorded confirmed sighting in the area was in 1918. Today, the purported site of the action features the Hawkwatch Trail, capped by a large wooden platform that provides views out over the town. The trail passes the footings of a former fire watchtower. The site was recently redeveloped with several additional trails being added and a number of interpretive centers. References
Niagara Square (shopping centre)

The Niagara Square was a shopping centre and former mall in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. The Niagara Square opened in 1977. The interior of the shopping centre was closed in 2017, with some stores remaining open in the exterior. Before its closure, the Niagara Square was a 36,000-square-metre (390,000 sq ft) shopping centre with 83 units. After its demolition, the property was repurposed for use as a Costco location. History Early history The Niagara Square opened in 1977, when development in the southwest end of Niagara Falls was scarce. 200,000 people attended the opening of the shopping centre. Niagara Square, along with the opening of casinos, created increased demand for better public infrastructure which was not remedied until the 2000s. At its peak, the shopping centre hosted forty-nine stores, three bank branches, and an auditorium which was used for events. Demolition and reuse Before the demolition of the shopping centre, more than one-third of the tenants occupying the space had left prior to its closure. Remaining tenants either relocated or remained in outbuildings that were not planned for demolition or their leases were not renewed. In April 2017, the shopping centre closed. Demolition of the interior began in the spring of 2019. The owners invested 25 million dollars into the demolition and redevelopment of Niagara Square. Bayfield Realty Advisors met with Jim Diodati (the mayor of Niagara Falls) and city staff to discuss redevelopment. Costco, a warehouse retail outlet, used the property to open a new location in 2020. In total, the Costco store is 150,000 square feet. The interior of the shopping centre has been demolished and is used as parking lot space. The store itself is located along the back of the property.

Niagara Falls Convention Centre

The Niagara Falls Convention Centre is a convention centre located in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada, along Stanley Avenue and Dunn Street. It was previously known as the Scotiabank Convention Centre from 2011 to 2021 and was renamed after Scotiabank's naming rights expired. History In 2007, a public-private partnership was formed to fund the project. Both the federal and provincial governments contributed $35 million each and the remaining one-third commitment came from private investors. The Regional Municipality of Niagara provided the lease of land on which the facility was built for a nominal fee of $1 per year. Construction on the two-storey building began on May 1, 2009. The halfway point of construction was marked by a ceremony on April 30, 2010. In 2015, a president for the convention centre was hired. It was renamed the Niagara Falls Convention Centre in 2021 when Scotiabank's naming rights expired. In 2022, the centre successfully underwent a certification process that marked it as being accessible to individuals with sensory issues. The convention centre often hosts large events that attract tourists from outside the city. Some examples of hosted events include the Canadian Cheer National Championships, the Niagara Falls Comic Con, and the 420 Expo. The building has also been used as a film set location. The convention centre was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in Ontario, as tourism to Niagara Falls dwindled and government restrictions were made on building capacity. It was used as a mass vaccination site during the pandemic. In 2024, the venue was used for an event hosted by the Ford government. Thousands of people stood outside the building to protest various policies. In particular, his policies surrounding healthcare funding (leading to the closure of a hospital in Fort Erie) and education funding were criticized. The protests lasted for two days, which was the duration of the event held at the convention centre.

First Baptist Church (Toronto)

First Baptist Church is a Baptist congregation in Toronto, Ontario, affiliated with Canadian Baptists of Ontario and Quebec. It is both the first Baptist congregation in Toronto and the oldest black institution in the city. Formed by fugitive enslaved persons, the church played a large role in the abolitionist movement, including hosting lectures against slavery and offering aid to fugitives. In its long history, the church's location has changed multiple times. Today it holds service at 101 Huron Street. History The church was formed by 12 fugitive enslaved persons in 1826, under the leadership of Elder Washington Christian. Reverend Christian was a former enslaved individual who established multiple Baptist churches in Canada. It had not been possible to attend existing white churches because the fugitives were required to have a letter from their old church and to pay their old slave masters for the money lost due to their escape. At first, services were held outside or in the homes of members of the church. Reverend Christian rented a masonic temple in 1827. Although some white congregants attended the black church's services, a church for white members was established in 1829. There were reportedly 66 members of the First Baptist Church in 1837. In the same year, a visitor noted that half the congregation was white, half was black. In 1841, the congregation moved to its first permanent location after being gifted land by the family of Squires McCutcheon to build a church at Queen Street and Victoria Street. Soon after, white members left for a different Baptist church. In 1843, Elder Washington Christian went to Jamaica for two years, returning with enough raised funds to pay off the new church's mortgage. The location was known as "First Coloured Calvinistic Baptist Church" or "Queen Street Coloured Baptist Church." In 1905, it relocated to University Avenue and Edward Street, at which point it was known as "University Avenue Baptist Church".The name "First Baptist Church" began being used in the 1940s. The church relocated to its current address at Huron Street and D'Arcy Street in 1955. The previous property was sold to Shell Oil Company and the building was demolished. In 2000, baptized membership was approximately 140 and about the same number attended Sunday church services. Locations , References External links Official website
Fathom Five National Marine Park

Fathom Five National Marine Park er en nationalpark ved Georgian Bay (del af Lake Huron), i den canadiske provins Ontario, med store dele der ligger under vandet. Den beskytter ikke kun natur men også skibsvrag og fyrtårne. På grund af de mange skibsvrag er området populært blandt dykkere og både med gennemsigtig bund starter regelmæssigt fra Tobermory, så turister kan kigge på vragene uden at få våde fødder. Flere besøgende camperer i Bruce Peninsula National Park som ligger ved siden af og anvender denne nationalpark som udgangspunkt for udflugter til Fathom Five og andre mål i nærheden. Til Fathom Five hører flere øer som for eksempel Flowerpot Island. Også på Flowerpot Island findes teltpladser samt vandrestier og de to navngivende flowerpots (urtepotter), der er søjler af sten som står ved stranden. Besøgscentrum 2006 blev et nyt besøgscentrum åbnet for besøgende til begge nationalparker. Centret blev formgivet af Andrew Frontini fra tegnestuen Shore Tilbe Irwin+ Partnere. Til centret hører et omtrent 20 meter højt udsigtstårn for at forbedre udsigten over de omgivende nationalparker.

Fathom Five National Marine Park

Der Fathom Five National Marine Park, der sich über eine Fläche von 113,5 km² erstreckt, ist ein am 20. Juli 1987 errichtetes Meeresschutzgebiet in Ontario (Kanada), welches aus mehreren Teilstücken auf der Halbinsel sowie zahlreichen Inseln besteht. Zu den Inseln im Park gehört unter anderem auch Flowerpot Island. Der Park liegt an der Nordspitze der Bruce-Halbinsel, welche die Georgian Bay vom Lake Huron abteilt. Die nächstgelegene Siedlung ist Ortsteil Tobermory, der zur Gemeinde Northern Bruce Peninsula gehört. Südlich des Parks liegt der Bruce-Peninsula-Nationalpark. Entgegen seinem Namen ist er jedoch kein Nationalpark, sondern ein National Marine Conservation Area. Es ist das erste National Marine Conservation Area welches in Kanada eingerichtet wurde. Die beiden Arten von Schutzgebieten unterscheiden sich in ihrem Schutzstatus und den Nutzungsmöglichkeiten. Bei dem Park handelt es sich um ein Schutzgebiet der IUCN-Kategorie VI (Protected area with sustainable use of natural resources; Ressourcenschutzgebiet mit Management). Seit 2009 sind Teile des Parks Dark Sky Preserve (Lichtschutzgebiet, Bruce Peninsula Dark Sky Preserve). Durch das von Parks Canada gemanagte Schutzgebiet werden auch die zur Zeit 27 bekannten historische Schiffswracks, wie die Sweepstakes und drei Leuchttürme (Cove Island, Big Tub und Flowerpot) miterfasst. Des Weiteren findet man hier eine Ansammlung von Inseln, an deren teilweise zerklüfteten Küsten verschiedenste Lebewesen im Wasser leben. Seit 2006 wird der Park, zusammen mit dem Bruce-Peninsula-Nationalpark aus einem gemeinsamen Besucherzentrum in Tobermory betreut. Der Park stand zeitweise auf der kanadischen Tentativliste.

Parque Nacional Marítimo Fathom Five

O Parque Nacional Marinho Fathom Five é uma Área Nacional de Conservação Marinha na parte Georgian Bay do Lago Huron, Ontário, Canadá, que visa proteger e exibir naufrágios e faróis e conservar os ecossistemas de água doce. Os muitos naufrágios tornam o parque um destino popular de mergulho, e os passeios de barco com fundo de vidro saem de Tobermory regularmente, permitindo que os turistas vejam os naufrágios sem precisar se molhar. Muitos visitantes acampam nas proximidades do Parque Nacional da Península de Bruce e usam o parque como base para explorar Fathom Five e os arredores durante o dia. Fathom Five também contém inúmeras ilhas, notavelmente a Ilha Flowerpot, que tem instalações de acampamento rústicas, trilhas marcadas e seus vasos de flores homônimos, pilhas periféricas de penhascos de escarpa que ficam a uma curta distância da ilha, a maioria com vegetação (incluindo árvores) ainda crescendo nelas. Estabelecido em 20 de julho de 1987, o parque representou uma partida pioneira para o sistema de parques nacionais, que até então se concentrava na conservação terrestre. A sua designação como Parque Nacional Marinho previa a criação de outros, embora a nomenclatura para tais unidades se transformasse em Áreas Nacionais de Conservação Marinha, deixando o Fathom Five como o único Parque Nacional Marinho. Apesar de seu nome único, é categorizado como NMCA e é considerado o primeiro do país. Centro de visitantes Em 2006, um novo centro de visitantes foi aberto para atender ao Parque Nacional Marinho Fathom Five e ao Parque Nacional Península Bruce. Projetado por Andrew Frontini da Shore Tilbe Irwin + Partners, o centro de CAD $ 7,82 milhões, acessível por um calçadão, possui um centro de informações, área de recepção, salão de exposições e teatro. Uma torre de observação de 20 metros também foi construída para fornecer aos visitantes vistas aéreas do parque circundante e da Baía Georgiana. O centro foi projetado com a sustentabilidade ambiental em mente, recebendo US$ 224.000 da iniciativa Federal House in Order para implementação de tecnologia inovadora de redução de gases de efeito estufa. Naufrágios O parque abriga vários naufrágios, muitos dos quais são usados para mergulho e alguns mais rasos são usados para mergulho com snorkel. O parque também tem três locais de mergulho que não são naufrágios, são Dunks Point, Farol de Big Tub Point e The Anchor.
