Ruhstaller Building

The Ruhstaller Building, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is a historic building located in the heart of Downtown Sacramento, California, USA. History Built in 1898, the 20,000 square feet (1,900 m2) building was built by the behest of Frank Ruhstaller and housed The Ruhstaller Brewery offices. Ruhstaller also managed Buffalo Brewery and made the building its headquarters as well. One of the new technologies the building featured was air conditioning that functioned with water pumped in from the Sacramento River. Multiple rehab projects have been completed on the building over the years, the most recent of which was in 2004. The project focused on, among other things, renovating the third and fourth floors that had been vacant for some time.

Russ Building

The Russ Building is a Neo-Gothic office tower located in the Financial District of San Francisco, California. It was designed by architect George W. Kelham, who was responsible for many of San Francisco's other prominent high-rise buildings in the 1920s. The 133-metre (436 ft) building was completed in 1927 and had 32 floors as well as the city's first indoor parking garage. It was the tallest building in San Francisco from 1927 to 1964 and one of the most prominent, along with its 133-metre (436 ft) "twin", the PacBell Building to the south. Upon completion, the building was iconic enough that Architect and Engineer wrote, “In nearly every large city there is one building that because of its size, beauty of architectural design and character of its use and occupancy, has come to typify the city itself ... Today the Russ Building takes this place in San Francisco. By its size and location and by the character of its tenants the building becomes indeed—'The Center of Western Progress'.” However, Manhattanization from 1960 to 1990 has shrouded the tower in a shell of skyscrapers, removing the tower's prominence. The San Francisco Chronicle's architecture critic John King described the Russ Building as "the embodiment of Jazz Age romance, a full block of ornate Gothic-flavored masonry that ascends in jagged stages from Montgomery Street with a leap and then a scramble to a central crown". The tower is a California Historical Landmark. Until the emergence of Sand Hill Road in the 1980s, many of the largest venture capital firms held offices in the Russ Building.

Russ Building

El Russ Building es una torre de oficinas neogótica ubicada en el Distrito Financiero de la metrópoli de San Francisco, en el estado de California (Estados Unidos). El rascacielos de 133 metros (m) se completó en 1927 y tenía 32 pisos, así como el primer estacionamiento interior de la metrópoli. Fue el más alto de San Francisco de 1927 a 1964 y uno de los más destacados, junto con su "gemelo" de 133 m, el PacBell Building al sur.​ Una vez terminado, era lo suficientemente icónico como para que el arquitecto e ingeniero escribiera: “En casi todas las metrópolis hay un rascacielos que, debido a su tamaño, la belleza del diseño arquitectónico y el carácter de su uso y ocupación, ha llegado a tipificar la metrópoli misma. Hoy el Russ ocupa este lugar en San Francisco. Por su tamaño y ubicación y por el carácter de sus inquilinos, el rascacielos se convierte de hecho en el 'Centro del Progreso Occidental'”.​ Sin embargo, la manhattanización de 1960 a 1990 ha envuelto la torre en un caparazón de rascacielos, eliminando su prominencia. El crítico de arquitectura del San Francisco Chronicle, John King, describió el Russ como "la encarnación del romance de la era del jazz, un bloque completo de mampostería ornamentada con sabor gótico que asciende en etapas irregulares desde Montgomery Street con un salto y luego una carrera hacia una corona central".​ La torre es un Hito Histórico de California.​ Enlaces externos «Russ Building» (en inglés).

Russell City Energy Center

The Russell City Energy Center (RCEC) is a 619-megawatt natural gas-fired power station, which began operating in August 2013. It is operated by Calpine, and is located in Hayward, California. It is named for Russell City and is built on that community's former landfill site. History In 2001, the Calpine energy corporation developed plans to build a 619 megawatt power plant, the Russell City Energy Center, at the city's former location. The plant broke ground in late 2010. The plant borders the City of Hayward Waste Water Pollution Control Facility and property owned by East Bay Discharge Authority near the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge and the Hayward Regional Shoreline. The Russell City Energy Center is the nation’s first power plant to receive a federal air permit that includes a voluntary limit on greenhouse gas emissions. A Federal Appeals Court, in May 2012, denied an environmental claim by nearby Chabot College. The plant went online in August 2013, and its full output of electricity is sold to Pacific Gas and Electric Company under a 10-year contract. Calpine Corporation owns 75% of the plant's peak dispatchable capacity, or 464 megawatts, and GE Energy Financial Services owns the balance. On May 27, 2021, an explosion at the plant shut down energy production. Design and specifications The two CTGs output the power at 15 kV, the STG at 18 kV, output which is connected to individual oil-filled generator step-up transformers, increasing voltage to 230 kV. The auxiliary equipment motors are operated at 4,160 volts and the balance power distribution is operated at 480 volts and 277 volts for the lighting loads.

Russian Gulch State Park

Russian Gulch State Park is a California State Park in coastal Mendocino County, California, 2 mi (3.2 km) north of Mendocino and 7 mi (11 km) south of Fort Bragg. Park features The park features 7,630 ft (2,330 m) of rocky ocean shores; it is approximately .75 mi (1.21 km) wide from north to south at its widest point, and extends for approximately three miles from east to west. Russian Gulch is crossed by California State Highway 1, which passes over the gulch on the Frederick W. Panhorst Bridge, a large concrete arch bridge constructed in 1940. The park entrance is on the west side of Highway 1, north of the bridge, and connects by a one-lane road under the bridge to the eastern part of the park. The smaller, western portion of the park consists largely of headlands with a blowhole and picnic areas, while the larger eastern portion of the park includes a campground, the park headquarters, and several trails for bicycles, hikers, and horses. A 2.5 mi (4.0 km) hike from the trailhead at the east end of the campground to a 36 ft (11 m) waterfall largely follows an abandoned logging road along the creek. A small beach, physically in the western part of the park but accessed by a road from the eastern side, is equipped with a restroom and an outdoor shower; swimming, skin diving, fishing, and tide pool exploration are all possible. History The name "Russian Gulch" was given to the area by U.S. government surveyors, in honor of the Russian fur trappers who founded Fort Ross 50 mi (80 km) to the south; according to a more specific local tradition, a deserter from Fort Ross lived at Russian Gulch. In the second half of the 19th century, schooners would frequently make dangerous stops in the cove to take on coast redwood lumber and passengers; the headlands still contain iron rings used to hold ropes and move lumber when these ships docked, and a mill made redwood shingles on what is now the site of a park recreation hall. Some of the land within what is now the park was farmed in the late 19th century, and in the mid-1920s a property developer from Los Angeles, F. O. Warner, bought land in the area with the intention of building a resort there. The Native Sons of the Golden West began a drive to turn the area into a park in 1928, and after funds were provided by A. Johnston, the county, and the state, the park was founded in 1933. Russian Gulch was one of 70 state parks due for closure in 2012 due to state budget cuts. See also List of beaches in California List of California state parks References
Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve

Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve is a regional park located in the Santa Cruz Mountains in San Mateo County, California along the San Francisco Peninsula. Its 3,137 acres (1,269 ha) and 10.4 miles (16.7 km) of trails are managed by the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District. Description The preserve consists of both dense forest and open meadows, and common activities in the preserve consist of hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Its highest point is Borel Hill (2,572 feet or 784 metres) with views extending east across the San Francisco Bay from San Jose to San Francisco, and west to the Pacific Ocean. Flora Poppies and lupines are the primary flowers that dominate the green, lush rolling meadows in the spring to early summer, but in the late summer the hills turn gold and are covered with flowers such as the cluster-lily, gumweed, mule's ear, and farewell to spring. In shaded areas, one can expect to see thimbleberry and a variety of ferns growing. Fauna Several animals can be found on the preserve including coyote, bobcat, bats, California newts and birds such as the American kestrel and northern harrier. History Russian Ridge is named after a Russian immigrant, Mr. Paskey, who leased a dairy farm here from the 1920s to 1950 from James "Sunny Jim" Rolph, Jr., then mayor of San Francisco and later California's 27th governor. The district acquired the land starting in 1978 from later owners who had plans to develop it into subdivisions. Access Parking for the preserve can be found in two parking lots — one lot as roadside parking on the northbound direction of Skyline Boulevard, the other, the Audrey C. Rust Commemorative Site, named after the former president of the Peninsula Open Space Trust, is located just off Alpine Road near the Alpine Road and Skyline Boulevard intersection. It can also be accessed through neighboring preserves, such as the Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve through the southeast end of the Ridge Trail (part of the Bay Area Ridge Trail system), as well as the Coal Creek Open Space Preserve, by crossing Skyline Boulevard from Coal Creek's Clouds Rest Trail to Russian Ridge's Ridge Trail.

Harbor City

Harbor City ist ein Stadtteil von Los Angeles, Kalifornien. Harbor City ist ein Teil des 15. Bezirks, und hat 24.640 Einwohner (2000). Nachbargemeinden sind im Westen Lomita und im Norden Torrance. San Pedro im Süden ist ebenfalls ein Teil des 15. Bezirks, wie auch Wilmington im Osten. Der Stadtteil hat Wohngebiete der oberen Mittelschicht besonders an der Grenze zu Torrance und Palos Verdes einerseits und andererseits auch Straßenzüge mit besonders schwerer Kriminalität und Armut. Harbor City war ursprünglich ein Teil der Rancho San Pedro, jenes Gebietes, das vom Spanischen Reich unter Karl III. Juan Jose Domingues 1784 übertragen wurde. Diese Ranch wurde später teilweise verkauft, und nachdem der Mexikanisch-Amerikanische Krieg 1848 endete, wurden große Teile davon auch von amerikanischen Immigranten erworben. Um 1900 plante Los Angeles die Eingemeindung von San Pedro und Wilmington, damit auch der Hafen der Region direkt zur Stadt gehört. Als die beiden Städte zögerten, kaufte Los Angeles einen langen, schmalen Landstrich, der es in Richtung Süden mit der San Pedro Bay verband, und drohte, dort einen eigenen Hafen anzulegen. In diesem Landstrich wurden die Stadtteile Harbor Gateway und Harbor City eingerichtet. 1909 stimmten darauf San Pedro und Wilmington der Eingemeindung zu, und der neue Hafen in Harbor City wurde nicht gebaut. So bleibt der Name „Hafenstadt“ sehr ironisch, da das Gebiet weder eine Stadt ist, noch einen Hafen hat. Weblinks Brian C. Keith: City History.

Harbor City (Los Ángeles)

Harbor City (Ciudad del Puerto) es una comunidad del Distrito 15 de la ciudad de Los Ángeles, en el estado de California, Estados Unidos. Contexto La Ciudad del Puerto es una pequeña subdivisión de la ciudad de Los Ángeles, con una gran mezcla de razas, clases y estratos sociales. En el año 2000 tenía 24.640 habitantes. Límites Los municipios vecinos de la Ciudad del Puerto están ubicados de la siguiente manera: Al Oeste Lomita, al Este Wilmington, al Norte Torrance, al Sur San Pedro, (parte del distrito 15, al igual que Wilmington). La Ciudad del Puerto está ubicada al pie de la rica región de Palos Verdes. Historia La Ciudad del Puerto fue en su origen parte del Rancho San Pedro, que fue adjudicado por el Imperio español en 1784, durante el reinado de Carlos III a Juan José Domínguez. Este Rancho fue vendido y dividido por Californios y después de la Guerra México-Americana, que finalizó en 1848, muchas de las tierras fueron adquiridas por inmigrantes angloamericanos. Alrededor de 1900 la Ciudad de Los Ángeles planeó la anexión de San Pedro y Wilmington, de modo que también el puerto perteneciera a la ciudad. Cuando las dos ciudades no quisieron incorporarse, la ciudad de Los Ángeles compró una extensión larga y estrecha que la conectó hacia el sur con la bahía de San Pedro. Los líderes de la ciudad de Los Ángeles amenazaron con construir un nuevo puerto en Harbor City si San Pedro y Wilmington resistían a no anexarse. Ambas ciudades entraron en acuerdo en 1909. A cambio la ciudad de Los Ángeles eligió mantener a Harbor City (Ciudad del Puerto) como parte de la ciudad de Los Ángeles, uniendo así la metrópoli a sus nuevos centros de comercio oceánico. Así el nombre de Ciudad del Puerto (Harbor City) continúa siendo una ironía: no es ciudad y no tiene puerto. Véase también Portal:Los Ángeles. Contenido relacionado con Los Ángeles.
