99 Bishopsgate

99 Bishopsgate je komerční mrakodrap v Londýně. Nachází se na Bishopsgate, hlavní dopravní tepně ve finanční čtvrti City of London. Budova je vysoká 104 metrů a má 25 kancelářských pater s celkovou čistou pronajímatelnou plochou přibližně 30 000 metrů čtverečních. Na úrovních sníženého přízemí a ve 14. a 27. podlaží jsou k dispozici další tři provozní patra. Původní jádro a ocelová konstrukce byly dokončeny v roce 1976. V té době měla budova nejrychlejší výtahy v Evropě, které jezdily rychlostí až 6,5 metru za sekundu. V budově sídlila pouze banka HSBC, dokud se organizace nepřestěhovala na 8 Canada Square v Canary Wharf (tato budova se následně stala známou jako HSBC Tower). V roce 1993 byla budova 99 Bishopsgate poškozena výbuchem nálože umístěné v nákladním voze Prozatímní Irské republikánské armády. Tento útok také způsobil poškození sousední budovy Tower 42. Po dobu 14 měsíců byla budova kompletně zrekonstruována. To vedlo k podstatnému zlepšení opláštění a převýšení fasády, které mírně zvedlo její celkovou výšku. Byly také vytvořeny větší, otevřené podlahové plochy. V polovině roku 1995 byla znovu otevřena jako kancelářská věž s mnoha pronájmy a v současné době ji vlastní (pronajímá) společnost Hammerson a spravuje ji CBRE Group. Společnost CBRE vypracovala pro budovu 99 Bishopsgate certifikát energetické náročnosti (EPC), který budovu ohodnotil stupněm „C“. Faktory, které ovlivnily toto hodnocení, jsou vliv specifikace energeticky účinných zařízení a vybavení při rekonstrukcích a standard informací týkajících se budovy, které byly zpřístupněny pro účely výpočtu EPC. Vzhledem ke stáří budovy je hodnocení „C“ považováno za působivé. Budovou prochází veřejná cesta, která je součástí systému „highwalk“ londýnského City a spojuje most pro pěší přes London Wall s chodníky kolem Toweru 42. Dne 31. ledna 2025 schválilo londýnské zastupitelstvo plány na výstavbu nové 54patrové věže na tomto místě. Demolice stávající budovy má být zahájena v roce 2026.

99 Bishopsgate

99 Bishopsgate is a commercial skyscraper in London. It is located on Bishopsgate, a major thoroughfare in the City of London financial district. The building is 104 metres (341 ft) tall and has 25 office floors, with a total net lettable floor space of circa 30,000 square metres (322,900 sq ft). There are a further three plant floors at levels LG, 14 and 27. The original core and steelwork was completed in 1976. At the time, it had the fastest lifts in Europe, running at up to 6.5 metres per second. The building was occupied solely by HSBC until the organisation moved to 8 Canada Square at Canary Wharf (that building subsequently became known as the HSBC Tower). 99 Bishopsgate was extensively damaged in 1993 by a truck bomb exploded by the Provisional IRA, which also damaged the neighbouring NatWest Tower. The building was fully refurbished over a period of 14 months, which resulted in substantially improved cladding and a façade overrun which increased its overall height slightly. Larger, open plan floorplates were also created. It re-opened in mid-1995 as a multi-let office tower and is currently owned (leasehold) by Hammerson and managed by CBRE Group. CBRE has produced an energy performance certificate (EPC) for 99 Bishopsgate which has resulted in a 'C' rating for the building. The factors that influenced the rating are the impact of specifying energy efficient plant and equipment during refits and the standard of building-related information made available for the purposes of EPC calculation. Considering the age of the building, a 'C' rating is considered impressive. A public right of way exists through the building as part of the City of London 'highwalk' system, connecting a pedestrian bridge over London Wall to the walkways around Tower 42. On 31 January 2025, the City of London approved plans for the construction of a new 54-storey tower at the site. Demolition of the current building is planned to commence in 2026.

Garrick Theatre är en teater vid Charing Cross Road i West End i London i Storbritannien. Den har sitt namn efter skådespelaren David Garrick. Den öppnade 1889 med The Profligate, en pjäs av Arthur Wing Pinero. Historik Etableringen finansierades av pjäsförfattaren W.S. Gilbert, som skrev fler än 75 pjäser, bland andra komiska operor med Gilbert och Sullivan. Den ritades av Walter Emden. Den första teaterdirektören var Gilberts vän John Hare. En föreslagen ombyggnad av Covent Garden 1968 hotade teaterns fortlevnad, tillsammans med den för de närliggande teatrarna Vaudeville, Adelphi, Lyceum och Duchess. En opinionskampanj ledde till att planerna inte förverkligades. Teatern har mest spelat komedier. År 2005 köptes teatern av Nimax Theatres Ltd.

Hanover Square

Hanover Square è una piazza di Londra nel quartiere di Mayfair, situata a sud-ovest di Oxford Circus, la dove si incrociano Oxford Street e Regent Street. Le strade che convergono su Hanover Square sono in senso orario: Brook Street, Dering Street, Hanover Street, Harewood Place e Princes Street. Hanover Square si sviluppò nel XVIII secolo come zona residenziale fra le migliori di Londra, e fu inizialmente il luogo di residenza della aristocrazia legata ai Tory. In essa rimangono alcune residenze dell'epoca, mentre la maggior parte degli edifici ricadenti sulla piazza sono stati ricostruiti in varie epoche. Oggi essi sono quasi completamente occupati da uffici. Sulla piazza si affaccia inoltre la Chiesa di San Giorgio.

Heathrow Terminal 5

Heathrow Terminal 5 (o, in italiano, Terminal 5 di Heathrow) è un terminal aeroportuale dell'aeroporto civile di Londra Heathrow. Questo venne aperto nel 2008 ed è utilizzato esclusivamente dalle due compagnie aeree del gruppo International Airlines; la compagnia di bandiera britannica British Airways, e la compagnia di bandiera spagnola Iberia Airlines. La struttura Il complesso presenta come struttura principale un grandioso edificio, che è anche la più grande struttura autoportante della Gran Bretagna. Questo edificio è stato progettato da Richard Rogers, della Richard Rogers Partnership, ed ingegneri della compagnia Arup, per un costo di 4 miliardi di sterline. La realizzazione del progetto si è protratto per 19 anni ed il terminal è stato pensato per servire 35 milioni di passeggeri all'anno (più della metà del traffico aeroportuale dell'intero aeroporto nel 2009). La struttura si suddivide in 3 parti: il T5 A-B-C. la principale, dove c'è l'entrata e l'uscita è la A e le altre due sono i suoi satelliti. Solitamente nella B parcheggiano gli aerei con tratte più lunghe e quindi più grandi, mentre nelle altre due strutture parcheggiano vari aerei che volano soprattutto su tratte di corto e medio raggio. Al check-in c'è un'innovazione: il nastro trasportatore per i bagagli corre al di sotto dei banchi check-in, invece che sul retro come nei sistemi tradizionali, e quindi è possibile passare direttamente oltre il banco accettazione non essendo così incanalati in piccoli corridoi come avviene solitamente negli aeroporti. L'area dove ci sono i gate è molto ampia e con vari negozi e ristoranti. Collegamenti Per raggiungere i satelliti il terminal dispone di un servizio ferroviario che passa sotto la pista e si ferma in tutte le tre strutture. Per raggiungere gli altri terminal dell'aeroporto c'è un servizio gratuito fino ai terminal stessi chiamato Heathrow Express, che diventa a pagamento se si vuole proseguire fino alla città di Londra. Il terminal è collegato al centro della capitale grazie alla metropolitana (Piccadilly line), dall'Heathrow Express e da un servizio taxi continuo. Il terminal 5 è collegato anche alla Motorway M25.

Avenbury

Avenbury is a civil parish in Herefordshire, England. It is on the A465, just south of Bromyard, and by the River Frome. The population of this parish at the 2011 Census was 225. History Avenbury was mentioned on the Domesday Book. The village that was centred on the church of St Mary has now disappeared leaving the parish consisting of a series of farms and hamlets. In the post-medieval period the village had a barn and several lime kilns as well as houses. Parish church The church was founded ca. 840 AD but rebuilt in Norman times; the tower was built in the 13th century. The church was closed in 1931. Many of the Baskerville family are buried in the churchyard. Three of the bells were rehung in St Andrew by the Wardrobe, London, in 1933. In May 2007 the church, which had been acquired by a pagan and artist named Leszek Skuriat in the 1970s was put up for sale and a trust created to buy it for preservation. In June 2009 St Mary's church was bought by a local archaeologist. In conjunction with English Heritage, restoration work on the church has commenced: St Mary's is a Grade II* listed building, a scheduled monument and is on the Heritage at Risk Register.

Hillsborough Park

Hillsborough Park è una vasta area adibita a parco pubblico nella zona di Hillsborough, Sheffield, nel South Yorkshire (Inghilterra). Descrizione Collegato con il centro della città da un'apposita fermata della linea gialla Sheffield Supertram, il parco - oggi di proprietà della municipalità di Sheffield - fu creato nel 1897 dalla famiglia Dixon che fece costruire anche l'annessa Hillsborough Hall, oggi adibita a biblioteca. Annesso al parco, poco distante dal fiume Don, è situato lo Hillsborough Stadium. Hillsborough Park comprende un piccolo lago per la pesca sportiva, ampi prati e zone di verde con un pavilion (lo Hillsborough Pavilion), un giardino acquatico, attrezzature per lo sport (bocce, corsa, tennis), inclusa un'area multiuso ed un campo da calcio un tempo riservato alle partite interne dello Sheffield F.C., una delle più antiche società calcistiche britanniche. Attualmente, dopo che lo Sheffield F.C. è retrocesso nella Northern Counties East Football League trasferendosi al Bright Finance Stadium di Dronfield, è usato per gli incontri casalinghi della squadra di rugby degli Hillsborough Hawks iscritta alla rugby league. Sono allo studio ulteriori possibilità di impiego per l'intero parco, recentemente sottoposto a massiccia opera di restauro e recupero.

Buckingham Baptist Chapel

Buckingham Baptist Chapel is a Gothic Revival church in Queens Road, Clifton, Bristol, England. History The church was built in 1842 to the designs of Richard Shackleton Pope. It is one of the earliest Baptist chapels built in this style. The chapel describes itself as 'independent evangelical baptist'. It is a former member of the Baptist Union, which it left on 7 April 1972 (hence 'independent') due to a membership decision based on 'lack of clarity in its teachings on the deity of Christ'. The church has been led by Pastor Oliver Gross since 1 December 2015. The church currently has two other elders and two deacons, with varying roles in the upkeep of the church and its ministries, in addition to an associate member involved mainly in preaching and outreach ministries, particularly with Romanian and Roma communities in Bristol. The church has several main meetings per week; two Sunday services and a midweek prayer and Bible study meeting on Wednesdays. Other meetings include a prayer meeting on the first Friday evening of each month and a ladies' meeting every other Tuesday. The church has several outreach ministries such as a Sunday school held during the morning service every week, Tiger Tots (a parent and toddler group) held on Fridays during school term-time, a club for teenagers called Lighthouse that is also held on term-time Fridays, and a monthly young adults group on a Saturday evening. There are several yearly events run by the church, such as a church party, missionary Sunday, anniversary service, Christmas carol singing and a Bonfire Night party held at the home of some church members. It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade II listed building. See also Churches in Bristol Grade II* listed buildings in Bristol References External links Chapel Website
