Phare du port de Stonington

Le phare du port de Stonington (en anglais : Stonington Harbor Light), est un phare situé sur le côté est du port de Stonington dans le Comté de New London, Connecticut. C'est un exemple bien conservé d'un phare en pierre du milieu du XIXe siècle. La lumière a été mise hors service en 1889 et sert maintenant de musée d'histoire locale. Ce phare est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 1er janvier 1976 sous le n° 7600200. Historique Le feu du port de Stonington est situé à l'extrémité sud de Stonington Point, marquant le côté est du port de Stonington. Le phare se compose de la tour et de la maison du gardien. Les deux bâtiments ont été construits en gros blocs de granit, et la maison du gardien a une aile à ossature de bois. Le gouvernement fédéral avait construit un phare à Windmill Point dans le port de Stonington en 1824. Cependant, l'érosion a entraîné sa démolition et la réutilisation de ses matériaux dans la construction de ce phare. La lumière était à l'origine éclairée par une lampe à huile et diffusée par huit réflecteurs paraboliques. Cette technologie était déjà obsolète au moment de la construction du phare, et elle a été remplacée par une lentille de Fresnel de sixième ordre en 1856. Dans les années 1880, le feu de brise-lames de Stonington a été construit plus loin dans le port, et le feu de port de Stonington a été mis hors service en 1889. Le site est maintenant la maison de la Société historique de Stonington qui utilise le bâtiment comme The Old Lighthouse Museum. Les collections du musée documentent la longue et distinguée histoire culturelle et nautique de la région, et les expositions incluent la lentille de Fresnel de 1856. Le site est ouvert du jeudi au dimanche de début mai au début juin et tous les jours sauf le mercredi de juin à octobre. Description Le phare est une tour octogonale en granit, avec galerie et lanterne, de 11 m de haut, attachée à une maison de gardien en granit. Le bâtiment est non peint et la lanterne circulaire est grise. Identifiant : ARLHS : USA-813 ; USCG : 1-25195.

Маяк Стонингтон-Харбор

Маяк Стонингтон-Харбор (англ. Stonington Harbor Light) — маяк, расположенный на мысе Стонингтон Пойнт на входе с восточной стороны в залив Стонингтон-Харбор в черте города Стонингтон, округ Нью-Лондон, штат Коннектикут, США. Построен в 1823 году. Деактивирован в 1889 году. История В 1822 году Конгресс США в связи с увеличивающимся объемом торговли выделил 3 000$ на строительство маяка, который бы обеспечивал безопасную навигацию до города Стонингтон. Строительство было поручено Бенджамину Чейзу. Маяк был построен в 1823 году. Он представлял собой каменную башню высотой 10 метров и каменный дом смотрителя, соединенный с башней. Для освещения использовались масляные лампы. Из-за эрозии пляжа рядом с маяком, маяк оказался под угрозой того, что его унесёт в море. Было решено построить новый маяк с использованием материалов из старой постройки, на эти цели было выделено 6 500$. Строительство было поручено Джону Бишопу. Новый маяк был построен из гранитных блоков по необычному проекту: вход в двухэтажный дом смотрителя был расположен в примыкающей к нему спереди башне маяка высотой 11 метров. В 1855 году на маяк была установлена линза Френеля. В 1889 году был построен маяк на близлежащем волнорезе, и маяк Стонингтон-Харбор был выведен из эксплуатации и превращён в музей. В 1976 году он был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест. Фотографии Примечания

Маяк Стратфорд-Пойнт

Маяк Стратфорд-Пойнт (англ. Stratford Point Light) — маяк, расположенный на мысе Стратфорд-Пойнт на входе с западной стороны в устье реки Хусанотик в черте города Стратфорд, округ Фэрфилд, штат Коннектикут, США. Построен в 1822 году. Автоматизирован в 1970 году. История Ещё до строительства полноценного маяка на мысе Стратфорд-Пойнт местные жители поддерживали импровизированный сигнал в виде костра в железной корзине, подвешенной на дереве, предупреждающий моряков об опасности. 3 марта 1821 года Конгресс США выделил 4 000$ на строительство маяка. В 1822 году строительство было завершено. Маяк представлял собой восьмиугольную деревянную башню высотой 8,5 метров и деревянный двухэтажный дом смотрителя. Для освещения использовались масляные лампы. В 1855 году на маяк была установлена линза Френеля. Состояние деревянных построек ухудшалось, и в 1880 Конгресс выделил деньги на строительство нового маяка. В 1881 году строительство маяка было завершено. Новый маяк представлял собой кирпичную цилиндрическую обшитую железом башню высотой 12 метров, с железной площадкой и перилами на вершине. Новый кирпичный дом смотрителя был двухэтажным. Дополнительно была построена противотуманная колокольня. В 1911 году противотуманный сигнал был заменен на более современный, и вместо противотуманной колокольни была построена кирпичная хозяйственная постройка. Маяк был автоматизирован Береговой охраной США в 1970 году. В 1990 году он был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест. Фотографии Примечания

Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church (Hartford, Connecticut)

The Sts. Cyril and Methodius Church is a historic Roman Catholic church at 55 Charter Oak Avenue in Hartford, Connecticut. It is a large, two story brick structure with limestone trim, designed by Timothy G. O'Connell and built in 1914 to serve the city's growing Polish-American population. The interior in particular is decorated with symbols generally found in Catholic churches in Poland, including the Polish eagle. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. Description and history The Saints Cyril and Methodius Church is located South of Downtown Hartford, South of Charter Oak Avenue between Charter Oak Place and Popieluszko Court. It is oriented facing East Toward Popieluszko Court, and is separated from Charter Oak Avenue by its rectory. It is a large and elaborately styled Romanesque structure, built out of brick with limestone trim. It has a basically rectangular plan, with a gabled roof along its length crowned by a tall tower at the front. A cross gable projects to both sides at the back end of the nave, with a smaller projection at the narthex. There are entrances on the sides of this latter projection and in the center of the main facade, each set in a round-arch opening with rounded windows above. Above each entrance are complexes of tall round-arch windows, the central one rising to the roof level as part of the base of the tower. The tower is crowned by an octagonal spire and cross. Hartford's Polish community grew in the Charter Oak area South of Downtown beginning in 1889, as immigrants drawn to jobs in the area. The congregation of Saints Cyril and Methodius was formally organized in 1902, after five years of informal arrangements. It met in a wood-frame church on Charter Oak Avenue built that year. By 1914, the Polish Catholic population had grown to the point where a larger building was needed. The present building was completed in 1916, to a design by Timothy G. O'Connell, an architect based in Boston, Massachusetts. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Hartford, Connecticut References External links SS.
