Fort Daniel Conservation Area

Fort Daniel Conservation Area is a 611-acre (2.47 km2) park located four miles (6.5 km) east of Mount Zion, Illinois. The land preserve protects the site of the ghost town, Whistleville. Today, the site centers on hiking and picnicking in the Big Creek watershed southeast of Decatur. Seven marked trails comprise 5.1 miles (7.0 km) of hiking opportunities that cross and recross Big Creek. At the north end of the conservation area, a recreational complex includes a picnic shelter, playground, and fire ring. Tree watchers are encouraged to find and identify the sugar maples, chinquapin oaks, pawpaws, wafer ashes, and Kentucky coffeetrees that grow in the area. The park is maintained by the Macon County Conservation District (MCCD). In 2019, the Illinois Clean Energy Community Foundation awarded a $1 million grant to the MCCD to enable a 173-acre land acquisition adjacent to the existing conservation area. In 2022, the foundation awarded an additional $2.9 million grant to enable a 235-acre land acquisition. The nearest major highway is Illinois Route 121, located southeast of Decatur. Eli Ulery House - Woodbine Farm In June 2023, the MCCD acquired the five-acre parcel containing the Eli Ulery House, also known as Woodbine Farm. This site is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 2025 Pothole Prairie and Seasonal Wetland Creation The MCCD applied for and was awarded an Open Space Land Acquisition & Development grant (OS-24-2517) by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) in 2024 in the amount of $600,000. This project involves converting old farmland, acquired by the district in 2023, into a unique pothole prairie ecosystem. A pothole prairie is a habitat characterized by many small, shallow wetlands surrounded by prairie. The district plans to add new trails and access points as well as educational and interpretive signage in this area. Whistleville Although the upper Big Creek watershed is open space now, it was one of the first areas settled by Euro-Americans in the 1820s in what became Macon County. Looking for timber and firewood on the unforested prairie, the settlers found mature oaks and hickories here. The first arrivals named their pioneer village Whistleville. Soon, a stagecoach route made the settlement a port of call between Indiana and Central Illinois. Early settlers were mostly from the American South, and the settlement was identified as a location of Southern sympathizers during the American Civil War. After the Civil War, Whistleville dwindled and disappeared, becoming a ghost town. References External links Official website
Monks Mound

Monks Mound je největší předkolumbovská mohyla v Americe a největší stavba archeologické lokality Cahokia, jež leží nedaleko městečka Collinsville v Illinois, ve Spojených státech amerických. Stavba vznikla zhruba v letech 900-1100, byla vytvořena příslušníky tzv. mississippské kultury. Spolu s celou lokalitou Cahokia byla zapsána na seznam světového dědictví UNESCO. Obvod základny mohyly je zhruba stejný jako u Cheopsovy pyramidy v Gíze (6,1 hektaru), avšak na rozdíl od ní je Monks Mound vytvořena výhradně z vrstev zeminy a jílu. Výška stavby je 30 metrů a má čtyři terasovité stupně. Archeologové prokázali, že kvůli zploštělému vrcholu do ní zatékala voda, která v minulosti způsobila sesutí části mohyly na západní straně. Jméno Monks Mound mohyle přidělil až v 19. století spisovatel a politik Henry Marie Brackenridge. Původní indiánské jméno je neznámé, Evropané místo objevili již opuštěné, původní obyvatelé odešli patrně kolem roku 1300.

Monks Mound

Monks Mound (deutsch: Mönchshügel) ist die größte präkolumbische Erdpyramide in Nordamerika nördlich Mesoamerikas. Monks Mound befindet sich in der Ruinenstadt Cahokia (Collinsville, Illinois, etwa elf Kilometer östlich der Innenstadt von St. Louis) inmitten von 60 kleineren, 10–12 m hohen Erdhügeln. Monks Mound selbst erhebt sich in vier Terrassen bis zu 30 m Höhe, ist an der Basis 220 m lang, 170 m breit und an der Plattform entsprechend 90 m lang und 40 m breit; er enthält 700.000 m³ Erde. Da er durch Erosion vermutlich teilweise abgetragen wurde, ist seine ursprüngliche Höhe ungewiss. Der Hügel diente in der Zeit der Mississippi-Kultur den Bewohnern von Cahokia als zeremonielle Stätte, vermutlich waren seine Terrassen mit politischen oder religiös genutzten Bauten besetzt, wobei auf der Plattform ein Tempel gestanden haben dürfte. Henry Brackenridge besuchte Cahokia im Jahr 1813, veröffentlichte eine erste detaillierte Beschreibung der größten Erdpyramide und nannte sie nach dort siedelnden Trappistenmönchen Monks Mound.

Монкс-Маунд

Монкс-Маунд (англ. Monk's Mound, дословно — «Монахов курган») — крупнейшее в Северной Америке (за исключением Месоамерики) земляное сооружение доколумбовой эпохи. Входит в состав археологического комплекса Кахокия около Коллинсвилла в штате Иллинойс. Предположительно курган изначально должен был быть значительно меньшего размера, однако из-за того, что дождь постоянно размывал его и вызывал сползание почвы, его пришлось увеличить. Курган сооружался в несколько этапов с 900 по 1100 гг. н. э. Примечания Литература Price, Douglas T. and Gary M. Feinman. Images of the Past, 5th ed.

Монкс-Маунд або Чернечий курган — найбільша в Північній Америці (за винятком Мезоамерики) земляна споруда. Входить до складу археологічного комплексу Кахокія занесеного до списку Світової спадщини ЮНЕСКО біля міста Коллінсвілль, штат Іллінойс, його розмір було розраховано у 1988 році як близько 30 м заввишки, 291 м завдовжки, включаючи пандуса у південній частині і 236 м завширшки. Це робить Чернечий Курган приблизно такого ж розміру по його базі, що й Піраміда Хеопса (5,3 га). База займає площу більше, ніж Піраміда Сонця в Теотіуакані. Імовірно курган спочатку повинен був бути значно меншого розміру, проте через те, що дощ постійно розмивав його і викликав сповзання ґрунту, його довелося збільшити. Курган споруджувався в декілька етапів з 900 по 1100 роки. Примітки Ресурси Інтернету Monks Mound (Mound 38), Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site website.

Billy Graham Hall

The Billy Graham Hall (BGH), is an academic building located on the campus of Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois. founded and opened in 1981 and named after Wheaton alumni Billy Graham, the center is the primary location for many of the school's bible and theology classes, as well as the graduate school and Liftin Divinity School, as well as the Billy Graham Museum and other academic and administrative departments. The building was previous called The Billy Graham Center (BGC) but was renamed to distinguish from the North American region of the Lausanne Movement whose offices are housed on the fourth floor. Asides from international evangelism efforts, the center operates as a domestic church planting and social issues think tank on issues of preaching, multiethnic ministry, prison ministry across nine different institutes. The Wheaton College Billy Graham Center Museum, opened in 1980, is designed to help visitors "extend their understanding of the good news about Jesus", and contains exhibits about the history of Christian evangelism in the United States and the ministry of Billy Graham. Changing exhibits are designed around the themes of evangelism, missions and Christian art. The center differs from the Billy Graham Library, opened in 2007 in Charlotte, North Carolina; the library serves primarily as an evangelical tool for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and is open to the general public. According to journalist Jeff Sharlet, The Billy Graham Center holds 600 boxes of records for the Christian political organization The Fellowship. In 2020, the building was renamed the Billy Graham Hall. References External links Official website

Chicago & North Western Railway Stone Arch Bridge

The Chicago & North Western Railway Stone Arch Bridge, also known as the Kinnikinnick Creek Railway Bridge, is a historic Chicago and North Western Railway bridge that crosses South Kinnikinnick Creek east of Roscoe, Illinois. The bridge was built in 1882 to replace a wooden bridge; the line it was on opened in 1853 as part of the Galena and Chicago Union Railroad and originally connected Belvidere, Illinois and Beloit, Wisconsin. C&NW Chief Engineer Van Mienen designed the double arch dolomitic limestone bridge, which is 53 feet (16 m) long, 60 feet (18 m) wide, and 58 feet (18 m) high. The railroad allowed the sand quarrying industry in Roscoe and South Beloit to ship its products to construction sites in Chicago; the bridge is one of the few surviving remnants of the railroad in Roscoe. The bridge is the only stone-faced rubble fill bridge with more than one arch in Winnebago County; the nearest bridge of the type is a five-arch bridge in Tiffany, Wisconsin. The bridge was added to the National Register of Historic Places on August 19, 1993. It is now part of the Stone Bridge Trail, a rail trail built along the former railway. References

Nettelhorst School

Louis B. Nettelhorst Elementary School is a public K-8 school in Lake View, Chicago. It is a part of the Chicago Public Schools (CPS) school district. Its namesake is Louis Nettelhorst Sr., a German immigrant who once headed the Chicago Board of Education from 1888 to 1892. An 1893 Chicago Tribune article described him as "one of the most popular German-American citizens of Chicago". History It first opened in 1892. For many decades Nettelhorst had a good reputation. In the 1950s its reputation began to decline. Around 2000, few Lake View parents enrolled their children in Nettelhorst and the school had low test scores. Children from other Chicago elementary schools that had too many students had been sent to Nettelhorst instead. In 2001 parent Jacqueline Edelberg met with principal Susan Kurland. Edelberg desired to enroll her children in a neighborhood elementary school instead of doing so at a private school, going into a magnet school application process, and/or moving to the suburbs. Kurland asked Edelberg what it would take for her to place her children in Nettelhorst. After Kurland accepted Edelberg's demands, Edelberg established a parental group, "Roscoe Eight", for the purpose of improving Nettelhorst; it was named after a playlot on Roscoe Street. The parental group advertised Nettelhorst, beautified the campus, and organized committees to address specific aspects of the school. Parents personally painted corridors of the school. By 2003 CPS chose Nettelhorst to become a "community school" in an effort to lure families back to CPS, and a community enrichment class program called Jane's Place, as part of a partnership with the Jane Addams Hull House Association, opened at Nettelhorst. By 2009 families moved to Nettelhorst's attendance zone for the express purpose of enrolling their children there, and the school's academic performance had improved significantly. Edelberg and Kurland later wrote a book about her experiences, titled How to Walk to School. The authors argued that the manner of grassroot-style fundraising and activism for Nettelhorst may be used to improve other American schools. Student body In 2011 the school had 632 students. In 2010 31% of the students were classified as low income. In 2001 77% of the students were low income. In 2003 it had 380 students. Academic performance In 2010 86% of Nettelhorst students were at or above the Illinois academic standard level. In 2001 35% were at or above that level. Campus The school includes a cafeteria that uses a French bistro theme along with a kitchen designed by Nate Berkus; the kitchen had a cost of $130,000. One classroom has a 1940 mural done by Ethel Spears and commissioned by the Works Progress Administration, Horses from Literature. The Chicago Board of Education had the mural restored in 1996. Feeder pattern Students zoned to Nettelhorst are also zoned to Lake View High School. References External links Nettelhorst School
