Guyon Hotel

The Guyon Hotel is a historic former hotel in Chicago, Illinois. The hotel was designed by Jens J. Jensen - no relation to the famous landscape architect Jens Jensen - in 1927 and was built in red and cream brick with arched windows on two floors and exquisite, detailed terra cotta ornaments typical of Jensen's work. It was built at a cost of $1,650,000 by J. Louis Guyon, a French-Canadian nightclub owner and dance instructor. The Guyon Hotel's first floor included commercial space and the hotel's lobby. Two ballrooms were located on the second floor. Guyon resided in the south penthouse. After the hotel opened in 1928, owner J. Louis Guyon mounted two AM radio towers to broadcast his radio station, WGES; the station aired morally conservative programming and music. One of the second floor ballrooms was used as the station's studio. Control of WGES was transferred to Harry and Thomas Guyon in the mid-1930s, and the station left the hotel in 1942, but it continues to broadcast as WGRB. The hotel entered into receivership during the Great Depression, and in 1939 it was sold for $425,000. In 1940, it was sold to Jack Galper and George London. In 1948, the AM towers were replaced with an FM tower, and WOAK began broadcasts from the hotel. WOAK became WFMT in 1951 and began airing classical music. In 1954, the station's studios and transmitter were moved to the LaSalle–Wacker Building. In 1964, the hotel was sold for $500,000. Soon after the hotel opened, police raided the four-room suite of Jack McGurn, also known as "Machine Gun Jack McGurn", a member of Al Capone's mob, and arrested him and another man after finding a machine gun and other weapons. In 1985, the Guyon Hotel was sold to the Lutheran non-profit organization Bethel New Life, who renovated the building and converted it to affordable housing. Former President Jimmy Carter stayed in the renovated hotel for a week while working on a rehabilitation project with Habitat for Humanity; his room was reportedly "roach-infested" and "furnished with only a couch and a milk crate". The housing effort ultimately failed when Bethel New Life ran out of funds. The building currently lies vacant and has changed possession over six times since 1995. Due to building code violations, the hotel is in city demolition court; it is considered one of the ten most endangered landmarks in Illinois by the Landmarks Preservation Council of Illinois. The Guyon Hotel was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 9, 1985. References
Гюйон (отель)

Отель Гюйон (англ. Guyon Hotel) — исторический бывший отель в городе Чикаго (штат Иллинойс). Отель был построен по проекту Дженсена Дж. Дженсена в 1927 году из красного и кремового кирпича. Здание украшают арочные окна на двух этажах и изысканные, детализированные терракотовые орнаменты, характерные для работ Дженсена. Строительство обошлось Ж. Луи Гюйону, франко-канадскому владельцу ночных клубов и инструктору по танцам, в 1,65 млн долларов. Первый этаж отеля «Гюйон» занимали коммерческие помещения и вестибюль отеля, а второй этаж — два бальных зала. Сам Гюйон жил в пентхаусе в южной части этого здания. После открытия отеля в 1928 году его владелец Ж. Луи Гюйон установил на здании две радиовышки AM для передачи сигналов своей радиостанции, транслировавшей программы и музыку, ориентированные на консервативную публику. Один из бальных залов на втором этаже использовался как радиостудия. В середине 1930-х годов контроль над WGES перешёл к Гарри и Томасу Гюйонам, а в 1942 году радиостанция съехала с отеля, но продолжила вещать как WGRB. В период Великой депрессии отель перешёл под внешнее управление, а в 1939 году был продан за 425 000 долларов. В 1940 году его приобрели Джек Гальпер и Джордж Лондон. В 1948 году башни AM были заменены на FM, и из издания отеля стала вещать станция WOAK, которая в 1951 году была переименована в WFMT и начала транслировать классическую музыку. В 1954 году студии и радиопередатчик станции были перенесены в ЛаСаль-Вакер-билдинг. В 1964 году отель был продан за 500 000 долларов. В 1985 году отель Гюйон был продан лютеранской некоммерческой организации «Вефильская новая жизнь», которая отремонтировала его в целях обустройства там доступного жилья. Бывший американский президент Джимми Картер останавливался в отремонтированном отеле на неделю, работая над реабилитационным проектом совместно с благотворительной организацией Habitat for Humanity. Сообщалось, что его комната «кишела тараканами» и «была обставлена только кушеткой и ящиком для молока». В итоге инициатива «Вефильской новой жизни» по обустройству в бывшем отеле доступного жилья потерпела неудачу, причиной тому стала нехватка средств. В настоящее время здание пустует, с 1995 года оно сменило владельцев более шести раз. Из-за нарушений строительных норм отель находится под угрозой сноса. Совет по сохранению достопримечательностей Иллинойса включил его в число 10 объектов, которым больше всех других угрожает перспектива исчезновения. 9 мая 1985 года отель Гюйон был внесён в Национальный реестр исторических мест США.

H. Kramer and Company

H. Kramer and Company is a brass smelting company located in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, United States. Pollution concerns The company has come under pressure from local neighborhood residents and the Illinois EPA for lead pollution. In March 2005, Pilsen residents began sampling the soil and found elevated levels of lead around the H. Kramer facility. EPA tests in June 2005 found lead on site at levels from 1,250 to 65,000 parts per million, and from 120 to 2,500 parts per million off site; with the highest levels more than twice the allowable level set by the US EPA for residential soil.[1] In September 2005, H. Kramer voluntarily agreed to clean up two sites near its plant.[2] In response, Pilsen residents have organized a group called the Pilsen Environmental Rights and Reform Organization (PERRO). H. Kramer was also in violation of discharging polluted effluents into the municipal sewage system.[3] References External links Company website Pilsen Environmental Rights and Reform Organization

Decatur Correctional Center

Decatur Correctional Center is a prison for women in Decatur, Illinois, United States. It is operated by the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC). It first opened on January 24, 2000. Sex offenders are not placed in Decatur Correctional. The prison, which includes the "Moms and Babies" program, has the only nursery for newborn babies in IDOC; it has eight cells in the E-Wing equipped with childcare facilities. Women convicted of nonviolent offenses may care for their newborns while serving time. The cells are video-monitored, and do not have bars. The mothers in this program are separated from the general population, and other prisoners are kept where they are when children are transferred within the prison. Due to a desire to not cause stress on the children, the correctional officers do not handcuff the women in the nursery area. The prison only accepts mothers who will be released in time to continue taking care of their children; therefore each woman has two or fewer years of time remaining. As of 2015 most women in the prison do not qualify and must immediately give up their children after their births occur. See also Incarceration of women in the United States References
Harrah's Joliet

Harrah's Joliet is a riverboat casino in Joliet, Illinois, outside Chicago, operated by Caesars Entertainment. It has 1,138 slot machines, 204 hotel rooms, and 4 restaurants. History The city began a downtown revitalization effort called Joliet City Center in 1990. The plan called for a greater emphasis on the Des Plaines riverfront, including the construction of a slip for riverboat gambling, which had been legalized by the state earlier that year. Early discussions were held between Joliet and Harrah's, operator of casinos in Nevada and Atlantic City, but it was Missouri hotel developer John Q. Hammons who moved forward and was awarded the gaming license. Hammons then brought Harrah's on board to operate the business and own an 80 percent share. Hammons' stake was initially to be financed by Harrah's, but this led to concern from the Illinois Gaming Board that Hammons was "selling" the license, so Hammons used his own money and outside funding sources instead. Harrah's Joliet launched its first boat on May 4, 1993, a 210-foot yacht named the Northern Star, with 500 slot machines and 40 table games. A second vessel with a more traditional paddleboat look, the Southern Star, was added the following January. A $29-million hotel was added in 1999, with 204 rooms on 11 floors. After state law was changed to allow riverboat casinos to remain permanently docked, instead of cruising every two hours, Harrah's replaced its boats in 2001 with two joined barges, with 40,000 square feet of gaming space with 1,138 slot machines and 31 table games. In October 2017, Caesars Entertainment (formerly Harrah's) transferred its 80 percent ownership stake in the property to Vici Properties as part of a corporate spin-off; Caesars continued to operate Harrah's Joliet under a lease agreement.

Harris and Selwyn Theaters

The Harris and Selwyn Theaters are twin theatres located in the Loop community area of Chicago, Illinois. They were built by Sam H. Harris and Archie and Edgar Selwyn. They were designated a Chicago Landmark on March 31, 1983. They have been redesigned by the Goodman Theatre, which is located in them. The Harris and the Selwyn originally operated as live playhouses. Among the plays presented at the Harris was the Chicago run of "A Streetcar Named Desire." Both theatres were purchased by producer Michael Todd and converted into movie theaters in the 1950s. The Harris was renamed The Michael Todd Theatre, and the Selwyn renamed Michael Todd's Cinestage. The Harris occasionally presented live performances during this period, such as a production of "Two for the Seesaw" starring Ruth Roman. Both theatres were closed by the beginning of the 1980s, but were briefly re-opened in 1986 as the short-lived Dearborn Cinemas. In 2000, the two theaters were completely gutted and rebuilt as part of the Goodman Theatre. The landmarked exteriors were retained as part of the new building.

Hat Island (Lake Michigan)

Hat Island is a small island on the eastern edge of the Beaver Island archipelago in Lake Michigan. It is about 10 acres (0.04 km2) in size and located in eastern St. James Township, Charlevoix County, Michigan. It became part of the Michigan Islands National Wildlife Refuge in 1943. Like other islands in the Michigan Islands NWR, Hat Island was formed during the Wisconsin glaciation when a melting glacier randomly dumped a large quantity of boulders and gravel in a spot that became part of the lakebed. The island was selected for inclusion in the Michigan Islands NMWR because of its standing as a potential breeding ground for herring gulls and other fish-eating birds. During World War 2 it was used as a practice bombing site by the US Navy. Hat Island is roughly four-sided, with an SSE-pointing forepeak that is said to look like the upturned brim of a hat.
