Clarion Alley

Clarion Alley is a small street between Mission and Valencia Streets and 17th and 18th Streets in the Mission District in San Francisco, California. It is notable for the murals painted by the Clarion Alley Mural Project. History Originally called "Cedar Lane," the alley's name was changed around the turn of the twentieth century to Clarion Alley. The street is notable for community and arts activity, including the Clarion Alley Mural Project, the American Indian Center and Promotoras Latinas Comunitarias de Salud. 47 Clarion The warehouse at 47 Clarion was originally known as the Woodmen Building with the main door at 3345 17th Street. It was an IWW meeting hall, where Tom Mooney once attempted to organize railway workers. Later, it was home to artists and musicians from at least the early sixties through 2002. Notable residents included Terry Riley, The Cockettes, Lise Swenson of Artists' Television Access, and two of the artists, Rigo 23 and Aaron Noble, who were founding members of the Clarion Alley Mural Project. 47 Clarion was demolished in 2001, and a parking lot for the condominium project on 17th Street replaced it. It became a symbol of the neighborhood's gentrification. Murals Since 1992, the alley has been covered in murals painted by the Clarion Alley Mural Project. Alley residents Noble and Rigo together painted the mural "Superhero Warehouse" showing a series of depressed superheroes on the warehouse's side, as a contribution to the mural project. Another of the early murals, painted by Scott Williams after research done by Fred Rinne, depicted native animals of the Mission District. Dog Days Clarion Alley was featured in the opening chapter of the fiction novel Dog Days by John Levitt. The main character is ambushed by evil forces that animate one of the murals into a monstrous force. References Bibliography

Clarke Historical Museum

The Clarke Historical Museum (formerly the Clarke Memorial Museum) in Eureka, California contains the area's premier collection of California North Coast regional and cultural history. The facility houses a Native American wing, Nealis Hall, which features an internationally recognized collection of basketry, regalia, stoneware, implements, and other objects indicative of the culture and creativity of local and regional Native American groups including the Wiyot (on whose ancestral territory the Clarke resides), Yurok, Karuk and Hupa Tribes. The Clarke Museum is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. History The Clarke Historical Museum was founded by Cecile Clarke (1885–1979). Miss Clarke was a local history teacher at Eureka High School. It was at there that she first started displaying her collection of local Native American basketry. In 1960, when the school ran out of room for her increasing collection of local history items, Miss Clarke sold her family sheep ranch and used the money to buy the Bank of Eureka building, where she moved her collection. Miss Clarke taught for over 40 years and dedicated her life to the museum. Originally named the Clarke Memorial Museum, after her parents, it was renamed the Clarke Historical Museum in 2001, and is now a privately operated non-profit organization for the use, benefit, and awareness of the City of Eureka, surrounding cities and the local Native American tribes. The Native American wing, Nealis Hall, was built in 1979. The museum is housed in the former The Bank of Eureka & The Savings Bank of Humboldt Building (1911) in Old Town Eureka, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places both as an individual landmark and as a contributing building to the Eureka Historic District. The bank building was designed by noted San Francisco architect Albert Pissis in a Classical Revival or Neoclassical style. The building is notable for its glazed architectural terra-cotta facade. Quoined pavilions flank the recessed portico supported by ionic columns and an extensive balustraded parapet appears above the cornice.

Clifton Court Forebay

Clifton Court Forebay is a reservoir in the San Joaquin River Delta region of eastern Contra Costa County, California, 17 mi (27 km) southwest of Stockton. The estuary region the forebay is located in is only 1m to 3m above mean sea level. History The body of water was created in 1969 by inundating a 2,200-acre (890 ha) tract as part of the California State Water Project. It serves as the intake point of the California Aqueduct for transport to Southern California, and feeds the Delta–Mendota Canal (a part of the Central Valley Project) to recharge San Joaquin Valley river systems. Geological context If a large enough earthquake happens near or at the Clifton Court Forebay, the California water system for irrigation and municipal use will be adversely affected. Several earthquakes have nearly shut down the Forebay. The 2014 South Napa earthquake and the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake came very close to shutting down the Forebay intake system. The Clifton Forebay is a wetland system that drained nearby small rivers into the Pacific Ocean. Only in recent times was its freshwater drainage functions turned into a gateway to water storage. The Central Valley region that this forebay interfaces with is very gradually filling in the central valley with sediments. The region may be rebounding from recent run ins with glaciations that affected North America. In popular culture A documentary about the decline of the United States' infrastructure, The Crumbling of America, was commissioned by the U.S. A&E network in the late 2000s. The documentary is typically shown on the History television channel in the United States, although other educational broadcasters globally have shown it. It features the Clifton Court Forebay as a "strategic piece of California freshwater infrastructure" subject to shutdown for up to two years if struck by an earthquake of magnitude 7.5 or greater.

Clifton Court Forebay

Clifton Court Forebay est un réservoir dans la région du delta de la rivière San Joaquin , à l'est du comté de Contra Costa, Californie, 27 km au sud-ouest de Stockton. La région de l'estuaire dans laquelle se trouve la retenue (forebay) n'est que de 1 à 3 m au-dessus du niveau moyen de la mer. C'est un projet du California Department of Water Resources. Histoire Le plan d'eau a été créé en 1969 en inondant 890 ha dans le cadre du California State Water Project. Il sert de point de prise de l'aqueduc de Californie pour le transport vers le sud de la Californie et alimente le canal Delta–Mendota (une partie du Central Valley Project) pour recharger les systèmes fluviaux de la vallée de San Joaquin. Contexte géologique Si un tremblement de terre suffisamment important se produisait près ou à la Clifton Court Forebay, le système d'eau de Californie pour l'irrigation et l'utilisation municipale serait affecté négativement. Plusieurs tremblements de terre ont presque fermé la Forebay. Le tremblement de terre de 2014 au sud de Napa et le tremblement de terre de Loma Prieta en 1989 furent très proches d'arrêter le système d'admission Forebay. Le Clifton Forebay est un système de zones humides qui a drainé les petites rivières voisines dans l'océan Pacifique. Ce n'est que récemment que ses fonctions de drainage de l'eau douce ont été transformées en une passerelle vers le stockage de l'eau. La région de la vallée centrale à laquelle cette retenue s'interface remplit très progressivement la vallée centrale de sédiments. La région est peut-être en train de rebondir après les récents affrontements avec les glaciations qui ont affecté l'Amérique du Nord. Dans la culture populaire Un documentaire sur le déclin de l'infrastructure des États-Unis, The Crumbling of America, été commandé par le réseau américain A&E à la fin des années 2000. Le documentaire est généralement diffusé sur la chaîne de télévision History aux États-Unis, bien que d'autres diffuseurs éducatifs dans le monde l'aient montré. Il présente le Clifton Court Forebay comme un «élément stratégique de l'infrastructure californienne d'eau douce» sujet à un arrêt pouvant aller jusqu'à deux ans en cas de tremblement de terre de magnitude 7,5 ou plus.

Cold Spring Canyon Arch Bridge

The Cold Spring Canyon Arch Bridge in the Santa Ynez Mountains links Santa Barbara, California with Santa Ynez, California. The bridge is signed as part of State Route 154. It is currently the highest arch bridge in the U.S. state of California and among the highest bridges in the United States. At its highest point, the bridge deck is 400 ft (122 m) above the canyon floor. The bridge is also the largest steel arch bridge in the state. It was determined to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places with exceptional significance. History The current bridge was completed and opened to traffic in February 1964. It was constructed by U.S Steel Corp's American Bridge division and Massman Construction Co. The structure won awards for engineering, design, and beauty. It was in the top 5 longest span arch bridges of this "supported deck" type in the world until the 1990s. Cold Spring Tavern, originally a stagecoach stop, is approximately 600m south of the bridge's west base in the canyon below, on a stub of Old San Marcos Pass Road (now named Stagecoach Rd.) connecting with SR 154 at Camino Cielo and Paradise Roads. The bridge was designated as a Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1976. Seismic retrofitting was completed in 1998 by American Bridge, one of the companies involved in the original construction. Barriers As of March 2012, the bridge had been the site of 55 suicides since its completion, which is about one per year on average; however, some years have several more suicides, such as the eight deaths recorded in 2009. In an effort to prevent future incidents, California Department of Transportation installed a 9.5 ft (2.9 m) tall barrier in the form of an inwardly-curved, finely-gridded mesh fence in March 2012. The fence cost $3.2 million. A Santa Monica man committed suicide from the bridge six months later in September 2012. The most recent suicide was in April 2019; Daniel Lacy was the son of actress Julia Duffy.

Cold Spring Canyon Arch Bridge

De Cold Spring Canyon Arch Bridge is een stalen boogbrug in de Santa Ynez Mountains in de Amerikaanse staat Californië. Ze ligt op de route van State Route 154 tussen Santa Barbara en Santa Ynez. In 2009 reden er dagelijks gemiddeld 13.500 voertuigen over de brug. De brug werd in 1963 voltooid en geopend en won prijzen voor techniek, ontwerp en schoonheid. Momenteel is de Cold Spring Canyon Arch Bridge de boogbrug met 'ondersteund wegdek' met de vijfde langste overspanning (213 meter) ter wereld. De totale lengte bedraagt 371 meter. Het maximale hoogteverschil tussen het wegdek en de grond bedraagt 128 meter. Daarmee is het de op twee na hoogste brug van Californië, na de Foresthill Bridge (223 m) en de Pine Valley Creek Bridge (140 m). Sinds de bouw van de brug hebben verschillende tientallen mensen zelfmoord gepleegd door naar beneden te springen. Pas in 2012 werd er een suicide barrier (een soort veiligheidsafrastering) aangebracht.
