General John Logan Memorial

General John Logan Memorial, also known as the John Alexander Logan Monument, is an outdoor bronze sculpture commemorating John A. Logan by sculptors Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Alexander Phimister Proctor, in a setting by architect Stanford White. Installed in Chicago's Grant Park, in the U.S. state of Illinois, the statue and pedestal sit atop a memorial mound, with a ceremonial stairway leading to the summit. The statue was a notable meeting location for anti-Vietnam War protests in the 1960s, including during the 1968 Democratic National Convention. History The monument was created during 1894–1897 and dedicated on July 22, 1897. Henry-Bonnard Bronze Company served as the founder, and additional assistance was provided by Daniel H. Burnham, Annette Johnson, and Mary Lawrence Tonetti. The unveiling of the memorial in 1897 was a major event in Chicago. People from across the country attended and the coverage was equally widespread. The dignitaries included Russell A. Alger, Secretary of War represented President McKinley, Governor James A. Mount of Indiana and Governor Silas A. Holcomb of Nebraska. Illinois Governor John Riley Tanner accepted the memorial on behalf of the state of Illinois and an oration was delivered by George R. Peck. Three revenue cutters fired salutes on Lake Michigan and the memorial was unveiled by Logan’s grandson, seven-year-old John A. Logan III. In 1913, Eugene F. McDonald, a representative of the Anderson Electric Car Co. (and future founder of Zenith Radio Corporation) used the steps leading up the memorial to demonstrate the ability of a Detroit Electric to climb hills for one of his customers. He was arrested for the stunt but made the sale. In February 1923, the South Park commissioners in Chicago suggested that the Logan Memorial be taken off its mound and put on a pedestal. The mound contains a tomb intended for the General and his wife. Mrs. Logan fought the move, writing letters to the head of the commission. Civil War veterans rallied in support of Mrs. Logan. She died a little over a week later. The statue was never moved. General and Mrs. Logan were both buried at the U.S. Soldiers’ and Airmen's Home National Cemetery in Washington, DC and have never been returned to Chicago. In 1939 it was reported that the inscription above the vault that read “Within this crypt the mortal remains of the hero are buried” had been chipped away to just a handful of letters by vandals. In 1968, during the anti-war protests surrounding the Democratic National Convention, demonstrators climbed the statue and organizers spoke from in front of its base.

Памятник Карелу Гавличеку-Боровскому (Чикаго)

Памятник Карелу Гавличеку-Боровскому (англ. Karel Havlíček Monument) — монумент, установленный в Чикаго, штат Иллинойс, США, в честь Карела Гавличека-Боровского (1821—1856), основателя чешской журналистики, сатиры и литературной критики, которого как борца за национальное возрождение, пережившего гонения и ссылку, Вацлав Гавел называл «первым чешским диссидентом». Монумент первоначально располагался в парке Douglas Park, неподалёку от Pilsen Park, позже в 1983 году состоялся его перенос в музейную парковую зону Северного острова в Чикаго между Планетарием Адлера и Филдовским музеем естественной истории. Автор скульптор Йозеф Страховский. Открыт 30 июля 1911 года. В торжествах по случаю открытия памятника приняло участие 50 000 людей с чешскими корнями. Памятник планировали открыть в 1906 году, к 50-летию со дня смерти будителя[прояснить], однако не сумели в срок собрать необходимые средства. Памятник в том виде, в котором он был открыт в 1911 году, во многих источниках характеризовался как «парадный» и даже «помпезный». Это был большой монументальный комплекс — помимо фигуры, созданной скульптором, была возведена стена с декоративными уступами и вазами, на которой были высечены строки из произведений Гавличека-Боровского на чешском языке. До наших дней, однако, дошёл лишь её фрагмент. Бронзовая статуя Гавличека-Боровского облачена в широкий плащ, который он придерживает левой рукой. Поднятая вверх правая рука, по-видимому, свидетельствует о том, что персонаж запечатлён в момент произнесения речи. Известно, что его эмоциональные пассионарные выступления как депутата австро-венгерского парламента пользовались большой популярностью.

Chicago station (CTA Brown and Purple Lines)

Chicago (Chicago/Franklin in station announcements) is an 'L' station on the CTA's Brown and Purple Lines. Located in the Near North Side neighborhood at 300 W Chicago Avenue at West Chicago Avenue and North Franklin Street in Chicago, Illinois (directional coordinates 800 North, 300 West), the station opened in 1900 as part of the original series of stations on the Northwestern Elevated. A high density of art galleries and several schools is in the vicinity of the station, including the Moody Bible Institute. Chicago/Franklin serves the Brown Line, but Purple Line Express trains also stop at the station during weekday rush hours. Station layout The original station house was on the north side of Chicago Avenue. Beyond the turnstiles were staircases which led up to the two long side platforms. The Chicago platforms were unusually long, starting just north of Chicago Avenue and curving along the track before straightening out just south of Chicago Avenue. Early in the station's history, it not only served 'L' trains but North Shore Line interurbans as well, requiring longer platforms which could berth eight car trains. The number of tracks also decreased from four to two just north of Chicago, meaning the two track, two side platform station had to provide the same capacity as a four track, two island platform station like Belmont (Red/Brown/Purple) or Fullerton. In the decades prior to the Brown Line Capacity Expansion Project, the northern, curved parts of the platforms were blocked off to passenger use; trains stopped south of Chicago Avenue along the straighter portion of the track which was long enough for eight-car trains. There were exit-only turnstiles to Superior Street on the south end of both platforms, along with an auxiliary exit to the south side of Chicago Avenue on the southbound platform. Chicago/Franklin received major renovations as part of the Brown Line Capacity Expansion Project. The station houses were constructed above street level on the south side of Chicago Avenue alongside each platform. The original, historic station house was restored and used for support systems. The exits to Superior Street were also rebuilt and reconfigured: each exit now has multiple entrance/exit turnstiles and wider staircases leading down to Superior Street. The canopies were refurbished and moved south, over the operational part of the platform. Additionally, with the installation of elevators at each station house, the station is now accessible to passengers with disabilities.

Chicago Avenue Pumping Station

The Chicago Avenue Pumping Station is a municipal pumping station which provides the city of Chicago, Illinois, with fresh water from Lake Michigan. Built in 1869 by architect William W. Boyington, it stands on the east side of Michigan Avenue opposite the Chicago Water Tower. In 1918, when Pine Street was widened, the plans were altered in order to give the water tower and pumping station a featured location. The structure underwent a renovation in 2003 and 2004, repurposing part of it as a theatre. The station is a historic district contributing property in the Old Chicago Water Tower District landmark district, and lies along the Magnificent Mile shopping district in the Near North Side community area. Renovation In 2003 and 2004 the building underwent an award-winning adaptive reuse project, in which much of its interior was converted to a theater space which now houses the Lookingglass Theatre Company. The redevelopment projects carried out at this time include roof deck replacement, façade restoration, exterior architectural lighting improvements, landscaping improvements, and lead paint abatement. The remainder of the building still serves as an active pumping station, as of 2018.

Pumping Station (Chicago)

La Pumping Station est une station de pompage de style néogothique datant de 1869, située au 821 North Michigan Avenue, dans le quartier de Streeterville à Chicago, dans l'État de l'Illinois aux États-Unis. Située juste en face de la Chicago Water Tower, la Pumping Station se trouve en bordure de l'avenue commerciale du Magnificent Mile, dans le secteur communautaire de Near North Side. Le 23 avril 1975, la Pumping Station a été inscrite sur la prestigieuse liste du Registre national des lieux historiques (National Register of Historic Places ; NRHP) par le National Park Service. Description À la suite du Grand incendie de 1871 qui ravagea la majeure partie de la ville de Chicago, la Pumping Station et la Water Tower faisaient partie des rares bâtiments du quartier historique à avoir survécu à la catastrophe. Les deux édifices étant conçus en pierre. Son emplacement se situe le long du trottoir est de Michigan Avenue, juste en face de la Chicago Water Tower, un château d'eau en forme de tour de style néogothique datant de 1869, et fait partie du quartier historique du Old Chicago Water Tower District. La station chevauche le prestigieux district historique de "Old Chicago Water District Landmark Tower" et fait partie des édifices les plus visités du secteur. À l'instar de la Chicago Water Tower, la station a été construite en 1869 par l'architecte William W. Boyington, qui a également conçu le célèbre cimetière de Rosehill à Chicago. En 1918, quand Pine Street (aujourd'hui Michigan Avenue) a été élargie, les plans ont été modifiés afin de donner plus de valeur à l'emplacement de la Water Tower et de la Pumping Station. Le bâtiment comprend une vaste salle composée de machines. Il est doté d'un plafond de 11 mètres de haut et entouré d'une mezzanine. Les chaufferies et une haute cheminée en calcaire sont situées à l'est de la salle des machines. L'extérieur du bâtiment est en pierre calcaire jaune provenant des carrières de Joliet et Lemont. Il est orné dans un style néogothique, avec des créneaux en pierre taillée et un toit en croupe. En 2003 et 2004, la ville de Chicago, propriétaire de la Pumping Station, a fait une étude se basant sur une possible réutilisation de l'édifice, comprenant des travaux de rénovation afin d'accueillir la compagnie de théâtre Lookingglass (Lookingglass Theatre Company). Au début des années 2000, quatre projets de réaménagement ont été réalisés simultanément, incluant la restauration de la façade, l'amélioration de l'éclairage architectural, l'amélioration et l'aménagement paysager ainsi que l'élimination des peintures au plomb. À ce jour, le bâtiment sert toujours de station de pompage.

Its clientele include Midwest produce buyers representing supermarkets, independent markets, chain restaurants, and independent restaurants. The 450,000 square feet (42,000 m2) building on the southwest side of Chicago is the largest facility of its kind in the midwestern United States. Location The market is located on the near southwest side of Chicago, just north of the South Branch of the Chicago River, between Chicago's Pilsen and McKinley Park neighborhoods. It consists of a single building on a 26-acre (110,000 m2) site. There are two entrances: one from the west on Damen Avenue, and one from the north near Blue Island Avenue. Traffic moves counterclockwise around the main building. The western side of the building is used for receiving, while the eastern side is used for loading. CIPM is a focal point of food wholesale in Chicago, and several other food wholesalers are located within a mile radius. History CIPM was built as the successor to South Water Market, which was located roughly 1-mile (1.6 km) northeast of the present site. By the late 20th century, South Water Market had unacceptable congestion and inadequate space.
