100 Van Ness Avenue

100 Van Ness is a skyscraper in San Francisco. Formerly an office building, it was converted into residential use. It is located in the Civic Center neighborhood near the San Francisco City Hall on Van Ness Avenue. The building, completed in 1974, stands 400 feet (122 m) and has 29 floors of former office space that housed the California State Automobile Association (CSAA). The building was sold by CSAA to VNO Patson, LLC in 2008 and was leased back to CSAA until 2010, at which time they relocated to a new corporate headquarters campus near Walnut Creek. VNO Patson's interest in the building was foreclosed on by its lender and is now owned by Civic Center Commons Associates, which took title to the property in 2011. The current owner, Emerald Fund, converted the building into 418 rental apartments. It was completed by 2015. The conversion was completed by the San Francisco office of Solomon Cordwell and Buenz and the interior design was completed by New York–based Irish Interior Designer Colum McCartan, founder and principal of McCARTAN.

California Automobile Museum

California Automobile Museum is an automobile museum located in Sacramento, California. It has a collection of over 150 classic cars, race cars, muscle cars and early models displayed throughout 72,000 square feet (6,700 m2) of museum space. The mission of the California Automobile Museum is to preserve, exhibit, and teach the story of the automobile and its influence on our lives. History The California Automobile Museum was the first automobile museum in the west to be established in perpetuity. Founded in 1983 as the California Vehicle Foundation, the museum opened to the public in 1987 as the Towe Ford Museum, displaying the largest collection of Fords in the world, courtesy of Edward Towe, a Montana banker. Karen McClaflin is the executive director of the museum. The first car to be donated to the California Automobile Museum was a restored 1938 Buick sedan, a gift from John Joyce, president of the Golden One Credit Union, which is still on display at the museum. In 1997, the museum was renamed the Towe Auto Museum, as they began displaying vehicles of all makes and models. In 2009, the Board of Directors officially changed the name of the museum to the California Automobile Museum, reflecting the expanded mission it has grown into over the last 25 years. Exhibits and attractions Approximately 40% of the 150 vehicles are owned by the California Vehicle Foundation, while the remainder are on loan from private exhibitors. The cars on display represent a cross-section of cars driven in California over the last 120 years and are arranged in chronological order. In addition to the static displays, the museum also has "rolling exhibits" which change frequently and display specific types of automobiles like Japanese or micro cars. While the museum can be experienced alone, docents are available to offer personalized tours free of charge. The museum also offers "Sunday Drives", an opportunity to receive a ride in a museum car free with admission every third Sunday of the month along with five cars to sit in on everyday basis.

California Citrus State Historic Park

California Citrus State Historic Park is an open-air museum in the city of Riverside, California, United States. As part of the state park system of California, it interprets the historic cultural landscape of the citrus industry. The park’s museum exhibits and interpretive features share the story of the citrus industry's role in the history and development of Southern California, and is told through the experiences of the diverse migrant and immigrant groups who made it all possible. The 248-acre (100 ha) park was established in 1993. This California State Historic Park reveals the cultural, political, and environmental aspects of the time when "Citrus was King" in California, especially the Navel orange from Riverside, and recognizing the importance of the citrus industry in Southern California. Context In 1873, Riverside resident Eliza Tibbets planted two orange trees from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The success of these trees launched the orange industry in the area. Description The design of the park is reminiscent of a 1900s city park, complete with an activity center, interpretive structure, amphitheater, picnic area, and demonstration groves of citrus tree orchards. The land contained within the park still continues to produce high-quality fruits. Free samples of the unique citrus fruits are available for visitors. The park's visitor center houses a museum about California's citrus industry, and antique citrus grove farm equipment is on display around the park. In popular culture In 2002 Huell Howser Productions, in association with KCET/Los Angeles, featured the park in California's Golden Parks.

California Hospital Medical Center

Dignity Health-California Hospital Medical Center is located in the South Park district of downtown Los Angeles, California at 1401 S. Grand Avenue. The 318-bed community hospital has been serving downtown and its neighboring communities for well over a century. Dignity Health-California Hospital Medical Center is known for its wide range of medical services – from obstetrics and gynecology, to orthopedics and cardiology. The hospital operates as a Level II Trauma Center, and its emergency department treats over 70,000 patients each year. The hospital's neighbors include Crypto.com Arena, "L.A. Live" and the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising. Services California Hospital's services include: Emergency Medicine, Gynecology (The Los Angeles Center for Women's Health), Cardiology (Cath Lab and Open Heart Surgery), Intensive Care Unit, Transitional Care Unit/Rehabilitation Services, Obstetrics, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Surgical Services, Cancer Center. History California Hospital Medical Center (CHMC) was founded in 1887 by Dr. Walter Lindley and two other physicians. It was originally a three-story building located at 315 W. Sixth Street in Los Angeles. By 1902, CHMC turned into the largest and best-equipped physician-owned hospital west of Chicago and less than 25 years later, CHMC's old frame buildings were replaced by a more modern nine-story brick building, resulting in another famous "first" – it was the first fireproof hospital in Los Angeles. Between 1870 and 1910, hospitals moved from the periphery to the center of medical education and medical practice. And the effects of this significant change rippled outward, altering the relationship of doctors to hospitals and to one another, and shaping the development of the hospital system as a whole. Today, Dignity Health-California Hospital Medical Center is a 318-bed acute care hospital that provides medical care to the dynamic community of downtown Los Angeles and its surrounding neighborhoods.

Instituto para Mujeres de California

El Instituto para Mujeres de California​ (California Institution for Women, CIW) es una prisión para mujeres en Chino, California. Es una parte del Departamento de Correcciones y Rehabilitación de California (CDCR por sus siglas en inglés). Antes de 1932, las prisioneras mujeres eran alojados en la Prisión Estatal de San Quentin. El campus original de CIW en Tehachapi se construyó y se abrió en 1932, y en el noviembre de 1933 el estado transfiere a las mujeres de San Quentin a Tehachapi. La prisión abolió uniformes de prisioneros y las prisioneras vivían en casas de campo en lugar de celdas. En el 21 de julio de 1952 un terremoto dañó los edificios de CIW. El campus actual en el Condado de San Bernardino se abrió en 1952.​ Originalmente el CIW de Corona se encuentra en un área no incorporada. La ciudad de Chino anexó la zona que tiene la prisión en 2003.​​​ El CIW tiene una dirección postal que dice "Corona, California",​ pero el CIW se encuentra en la ciudad de Chino.

California Rehabilitation Center

California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) är ett delstatligt fängelse för manliga intagna och är belägen i Norco, Kalifornien i USA. Fängelset förvarar intagna som är klassificerade för säkerhetsnivån "medel" och är dömda för feloni. Den bedriver också avgiftningsprogram i syfte att rehabilitera de intagna från narkotikamissbruk. CRC har en kapacitet på att förvara 2 380 intagna men för den 16 november 2022 var det överbeläggning och den förvarade 3 021 intagna. Historik År 1928 invigdes lyxhotellet Lake Norconian Club i Norco. I december 1941 tog USA:s federala statsmakt över hotellet och byggde om den till ett örlogssjukhus och var aktiv fram tills november 1949. Året därpå startades den upp igen i och med Koreakriget och var igång fram tills juni 1957. Det året tog Kaliforniens kriminalvårdsmyndighet California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) över huvudbyggnaden och använde den som kontorslokal fram tills 2002. I mars 1962 donerade federala statsmakten hela anläggningen till delstaten i syfte att den skulle användas för avgiftningssyfte. På 1980-talet drabbades dock CDCR och delstatsfängelserna av en överbeläggningskris och CRC tvingades då att även att förvara intagna som dömdes för feloni för att lätta på trycket på de andra delstatsfängelserna i Kalifornien. År 2000 blev 19 av anläggningens byggnader listade på National Register of Historic Places. I mars 2007 upphörde fängelset att förvara kvinnliga intagna och blev enbart ett fängelse för manliga intagna. Referenser Externa länkar Officiell webbplats
California Route 66 Museum

Das California Route 66 Museum in Victorville (Kalifornien) ist der Geschichte der Route 66 gewidmet. Das Museum befindet sich im historischen Teil der Stadt in einem Gebäude an der 16825 D Street, in dem vorher eine Lebensmittelhändler und davor das Red Rooster Café beheimatet waren. Das Red Rooster war Drehort für den Richard-Fleischer-Film Der Jazz-Sänger mit Neil Diamond. Das Museum wurde am 11. November 1995 eröffnet und wird von der Old Town Victorville Heritage Preservation betrieben. Auf einer Fläche von 460 Quadratmetern werden in drei Ausstellungsräumen Tausende von Fotos und Gegenstände zur Geschichte der Route 66 gezeigt. Museumsbesucher können sich an einem Diner-Esstisch aus den 1950er Jahren, in einem VW-Bus aus der Hippie-Zeit, einem Ford Modell T aus dem Jahr 1917 oder einem historischen Klohäuschen fotografieren lassen. In dem Museum wird das erste „End-of-the-Trails“-Hinweisschild aus Santa Monica gezeigt. Das Museum übernahm 1996 Ausstellungsstücke von Hula Ville, einem vormals westlich von Victorville gelegenen Skulpturenpark mit sogenannten Flaschen-Kakteen (bottle cactus) und gesammelten Reklameschildern von Dienstleistern entlang der früheren Route 66. Die von Miles Mahan ab Mitte der 1950er Jahre angelegte Sammlung wurde nach seinem Tod teilweise in das Museum verbracht. Die Sammlung der zumeist aus Holzbrettern handbemalten Werbetafeln, die der Volkskunst zugerechnet werden, wird heute als Hula Ville – Twentieth Century Folk Art präsentiert. Das Museum wird von ehrenamtlichen Mitarbeitern betreut und finanziert sich über Spenden sowie den Verkauf von Andenken.

California School for the Deaf (Fremont)

California School for the Deaf (Fremont), dont le nom est couramment abrégé en CSDF, est une école pour sourds, située à Fremont, en Californie, aux États-Unis. Elle a été fondée en 1860. Une école jumelle, la California School for the Deaf (Riverside), située à Riverside au sud de Californie, est de création bien plus tardive, puisqu'elle a été fondée en 1953. Histoire L'école est fondée à San Francisco en 1860, puis elle déménage à Berkeley à proximité du campus de l'Université de Californie en 1869, où elle est située jusqu'à la fin des années 1970. L'école doit se déplacer à cause d'une pétition organisé par l'Université de Californie qui indique la danger sismique. La moitié du terrain est cédé à l'université qui en profite de construire un dortoir nommé Clark Kerr campus, en l'honneur du premier chancelier de l'université de Californie. Le Département d'État de l'Éducation a acheté un terrain pour la nouvelle école pour les sourds à son emplacement actuel à Fremont, Californie, dans une zone jugée au moins aussi instable du point de vue sismique que site original de l'école. L'école California School for the Deaf ouvre à l'automne 1980. Mascotte La mascotte est l'aigle.
