William Waller House

The William Waller House is a historic house located at 1012 N. Dearborn St. in the Near North Side neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. The home was built in 1875–76, shortly after the Great Chicago Fire, during the development of Chicago's prosperous Gold Coast district. The house's Italianate design features a stone exterior, a double bay front, a bracketed and ornamented cornice, arched windows, and decorative keystones. Though Italianate rowhouses are still common in the Near North Side, freestanding Italianate homes are relatively rare, and the Waller House is one of the best-preserved examples of these homes. In 1921, the Palette and Chisel Academy of Fine Art purchased the house with the help of founding member, Fred Larson, who mortgaged his own home for this purpose. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 21, 1980. References

Maggie Daley Park

Maggie Daley Park – park miejski o powierzchni 81 tys. m² w śródmieściu (ang. downtown) Chicago w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Położony jest w pobliżu wybrzeża jeziora Michigan w północno-wschodniej sekcji Parku Granta, gdzie uprzednio znajdowała się Daley Bicentennial Plaza. Otwarcie zaprojektowanego przez architekta Michaela Van Valkenburgha parku nastąpiło 13 grudnia 2014 roku; założenie zostało nazwane na cześć Maggie Daley, byłej Pierwszej Damy miasta, która zmarła w 2011 roku. Ta sekcja Parku Granta ograniczona jest ulicami Randolph, Monroe, Columbus i Lake Shore Drive. Budowa parku, która kosztowała 60 milionów USD, trwała dwa lata. Most dla pieszych łączy go z Parkiem Milenijnym. Budowa 26 sierpnia 2012 roku burmistrz Chicago Rahm Emanuel i były burmistrz Richard M. Daley ogłosili plan budowy parku w miejscu, gdzie miało powstać – mimo powszechnego sprzeciwu – muzeum dziecięce. W roku 2008 rada miejska Chicago zatwierdziła plan budowy mającego kosztować 100 milionów dolarów Chicagowskiego Muzeum Dziecięcego, ale wkrótce doszło do sporu prawnego i w konsekwencji odstąpienia od projektu, co miało związek z tym, że przestrzeń parkowa nie nadaje się na budowę takiego obiektu. We wrześniu 2012 roku rozpoczęto przygotowania do budowy. Najpierw zamknięto Bicentennial Plaza i zaczęto grodzić teren. W listopadzie zaczęto usuwanie 877 starych jabłoni, magnolii, jesionów, wiązów i innych drzew. Drzewa usuwano z dwóch powodów: należało zdjąć warstwę ziemi, by wyremontować strop garaży podziemnych przy ulicy East Monroe; zamierzano nasadzić więcej gatunków odpornych na choroby roślin. Opis W parku znajdują się: sztuczne lodowisko w postaci około 400-metrowej wijącej się wstęgi, ściany wspinaczkowe, metalowe maszty oświetleniowe i plac zabaw. W przyszłości mają powstać trzy otwarte, trawiaste łączki, kawiarnia i zadrzewione miejsca piknikowe. Zajmująca się architekturą przestrzeni firma Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates zaprojektowała wcześniej (również w Chicago) otoczenie Centrum Prezydenckiego George'a W. Busha. Kontrowersje Wprawdzie zakładano, że park będzie strefą przyjazną dla zwierząt, to jednak jeszcze przed otwarciem wprowadzono zakaz wprowadzania psów. Sprawą równie kontrowersyjną było usunięcie prawie 900 drzew, zostawiając tylko 38 dotąd rosnących, podczas gdy 160 z usuniętych drzew wycięto. Przypisy Linki zewnętrzne Maggie Daley Park

Ile Aux Galets

Ile Aux Galets, also known as Skillagallee or Skillagalee Island, is located in northeast Lake Michigan, between Beaver Island and the mainland, approximately 7 miles (11 km) northwest of Cross Village in Emmet County, Michigan. The island's Ile Aux Galets Light warns passing ships of a dangerous gravel shoal extending almost 2 miles (3.2 km) to the east and .5 miles (0.80 km) to the northwest, that poses an imminent hazard to navigation. History The islet is home to a significant colony of ring-billed gulls. Its name, given by early French explorers, means "Isle of Pebbles." It is said that the English speakers found the French name unpronounceable, and "Ile aux Galets"—soon misheard, misunderstood and mispronounced—transmuted into "Skillagalee" (or some variant) which took hold. By the "mid 1800s references to the original French name all but disappeared." There are many wrecks near Skillagalee island. However, on September 27, 1850, the loss of the A.D. Patchin, a wood sidewheeler 226 feet (69 m) long and built in Trenton, Michigan in 1846, led to the construction of the first light on the island. Loaded with general goods, the Patchin's course into Grays Reef Passage was disrupted by currents that pulled her onto Skillagalee's shore. Her crew escaped and was rescued, but foul winds and weather thwarted many attempts to set her free. She was "pounded to pieces, becoming yet another of Lake Michigan's many victims." References
Île aux Galets

Île aux Galets, aussi connue sous le nom Skillagallee, est une île du nord-est du lac Michigan, située entre l'île Beaver et le continent, à environ 11 km au nord-est de Cross Village Township, Michigan (en) dans le comté d'Emmet. Le phare de l'île aux Galets avertit les navires de la présence d'un haut-fond de gravier dangereux qui représente un danger imminent pour la navigation. L'îlot abrite une importante colonie de goéland à bec cerclé. Son nom fut donné par les premiers explorateurs français et les anglophones trouvant le nom français imprononçable l'ont renommé Skillagallee (ou Skillagalee Island). Il y a de nombreuses épaves près de l'île. Cependant, le 27 septembre 1850, la perte du bateau à roues à aubes A.D. Patchin, a conduit à la construction de la première lumière sur l'île. Comment y arriver L'île est accessible en bateau léger ou en kayak de mer. En raison des conditions météorologiques variables, des eaux peu profondes et des récifs et hauts-fonds dangereux, toute approche de l'île est dangereuse. Il n'y a pas d'aires d'atterrissage ni d'autres installations sur l'île.

La Michoacana (ice cream)

La Michoacana is a brand of several similar Mexican ice cream parlors. Currently, there are 3 different brands that claim the ownership of the name: Paleterías La Michoacana, La Nueva Michoacana, and Helados La Michoacana. All of them have "La Michoacana" in the name, pink branding, and a Mexican woman in the logo. Due to the fact these are not operated as franchises but rather as small, independent businesses that choose to use the name, the quality of the product, pricing, and assortment can vary widely among the thousands of locations. There are an estimated 8,000 to 15,000 locations in Mexico. The brand is a successful business model network of family-run businesses, and no single company operates them as a formal franchise operation. In 1992 Alejandro Andrade and a group of enthusiastic ITESO students developed an image that would unify all La Michoacana parlors. And now it is an image that belongs to the entire town of Tocumbo. Paleterias bearing the name La Michoacana (or variations of this) are also found throughout the United States, Central and South America. The informal structure of the business has led to legal battles over the rights to the "La Michoacana" brand. In January 2021, Wind Point Partners and portfolio company Tropicale Foods (Helados Mexico) announced the acquisition of Paleteria La Michoacana (“PLM”) from Canum Capital Partners and Greyrock Capital Group.

Paletería La Michoacana

La Michoacana é um grupo de diferentes sorveterias mexicanas, com uma estimativa de 8 a 15 mil locais no México. A "cadeia" é uma rede de modelo de negócios bem-sucedida de empresas familiares, nenhuma empresa as opera como uma franquia formal. Em 1992, Alejandro Andrade e um grupo de estudantes entusiastas do ITESO desenvolveram uma imagem que unificaria todas as lojas La Michoacana. E agora é uma imagem que pertence a toda a cidade de Tocumbo. Paleterias com o nome La Michoacana (ou variações desse nome) também são encontradas nos Estados Unidos, na América Central e na América do Sul. Polêmica A estrutura informal do negócio levou a batalhas legais sobre os direitos da marca "La Michoacana". Atualmente, há três marcas diferentes no México que reivindicam a propriedade do nome. São elas: Paleterías La Michoacana, La Nueva Michoacana, e Helados La Michoacana. Todas elas apresentam a estética emblemática do nome, com paletas de cores rosa e preto, e com uma mulher mexicana no logotipo. Além disso, devido ao fato de não serem operadas como franquias, mas sim como pequenas empresas independentes que optam por usar o nome, a qualidade do produto, o preço e a variedade, o produto em si pode variar muito entre os locais.

Julien Dubuque Bridge

Die Julien Dubuque Bridge ist eine Stahlbogen-Fachwerkbrücke mit abgehängter Fahrbahn, die die Städte Dubuque und East Dubuque in den US-amerikanischen Bundesstaaten Iowa und Illinois verbindet und den Mississippi überspannt. Ihr großer Bogen ist als Durchlaufträger konstruiert, seine Hauptöffnung hat eine Stützweite von 258 m. Die Brücke ist seit 1999 im NRHP gelistet. Etwa drei Kilometer oberhalb nimmt die Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge seit 1982 den Verkehr nach Wisconsin auf, der bis dahin ebenfalls über die Julien Dubuque Bridge geführt wurde. Geschichte Die Brücke ist benannt nach Julien Dubuque (1762–1810), einem Frankokanadier, der einer der ersten weißen Siedler in der Region war. Eine erste Brücke genügte bald nicht mehr, um den wachsenden Verkehr zu bewältigen. Lange Zeit waren die Mittel für eine leistungsfähigere Brücke nicht vorhanden, zumal die Dringlichkeit dafür zunächst nicht bestand. Während des Zweiten Weltkrieges wuchs jedoch die kriegswichtige Bedeutung einer leistungsfähigen neuen Brücke über den Strom. So wurde 1942 mit dem Bau der Brücke begonnen und ein Jahr später abgeschlossen. Da man damals sogar deutsche Luftangriffe befürchtete, bekam die Brücke zur Tarnung anfangs einen grauen Anstrich. Da die Finanzierung der Brücke durch Anleihen erfolgte, wurde bis zu deren Rückzahlung im Jahr 1954 anfangs eine Mautgebühr erhoben. Zu Beginn der 1990er Jahre wurde die Brücke einer Renovierung unterzogen und der Fahrbahnbelag vollständig erneuert. Vor der Fertigstellung der Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge im Jahr 1982 führten auch die U.S. Highways 61 und 151 über die Brücke. So führte ein großer Teil des Verkehrs aus dem östlichen Iowa nach Wisconsin über das Jo Daviess County in Illinois. Heute führen diese Verkehrsströme direkt nach Wisconsin.

Julien Dubuque Bridge

The Julien Dubuque Bridge is a bridge over the Mississippi River that connects Dubuque, Iowa and East Dubuque, Illinois. The bridge is part of U.S. Route 20 (US 20). It is one of two automobile bridges over the Mississippi in the area (the Dubuque–Wisconsin Bridge three miles (4.8 km) north links Dubuque with Wisconsin), and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Description The Julien Dubuque Bridge is a light grey color. The bridge spans 5,760 feet (1.76 km) and is 28 feet wide. The longest span is 845 feet. History For a number of years, people living in the area wanted a bridge to replace the old bridge, which was called either the "High Bridge" or the "Wagon Bridge." However, economic conditions at the time made it difficult to get the financing together to build a new bridge. During World War II, a new bridge became even more important as it would help facilitate military transportation. In 1942, the first parts of the bridge began construction. In 1943, the bridge was completed. It was painted gray to decrease visibility of the bridge for enemies. Because the bridge was financed with bonds, it initially operated as a toll bridge. Money from the tolls was used to repay the debts. Large traffic paid the debts 11 years ahead of schedule and the bridge was toll free by 1954. In the early 1990s, the bridge underwent an extensive renovation. The deck was replaced, and a new walkway was installed. Prior to this renovation, the bridge was dark green; however, it again was painted a light gray that is currently maintained. Prior to the construction of the Dubuque-Wisconsin Bridge, the Julien Dubuque Bridge also carried US 61 and US 151. This resulted in both of these highways passing a short distance through Jo Daviess County, Illinois, between Dubuque and Wisconsin. Now both highways cross the Mississippi on the Dubuque–Wisconsin Bridge, which directly connects Wisconsin and Iowa, and neither US 61 nor US 151 passes through Illinois. On June 9, 2008, the bridge was struck by a number of runaway barges shortly after 8 p.m. Fifteen barges—which were loaded with corn, soybeans, and iron ore—struck one of the pillars on the eastern side of the main channel. Unsure of whether the bridge was stable, authorities temporarily closed it until an inspection could be performed. Traffic was rerouted on to the Dubuque–Wisconsin Bridge a few miles to the north.

Joe and Rika Mansueto Library

The Joe and Rika Mansueto Library is a storage library of the University of Chicago. Part of the University of Chicago Library system, it has a capacity of 3.5 million volumes under an elliptical dome. It was designed by Helmut Jahn, and was named after alumni Joe Mansueto and Rika Mansueto. History and construction Mansueto Library, designed by Chicago-based architect Helmut Jahn, consists of a glass-domed reading room, above high-density closed bookstacks which can be accessed through an automated storage and retrieval system. The physical retrieval is carried out by multiple robotic cranes, averaging about three minutes per retrieval. Mansueto allows the university to maintain the vast majority of its library holdings on campus in a centrally located facility, while creating space to accommodate new acquisitions for approximately 20 years. Planning for the library grew out of studies beginning in 2003 by a faculty task force, because other campus libraries, primarily the Regenstein Library, were running out of space for new books. In 2005, the board of trustees approved building a high-density storage facility next to the Regenstein building. The choice of Helmut Jahn was made in February 2006. Construction began in 2008, and the building was dedicated in late 2011. Reception Mansueto Library received several architectural accolades in the years following its dedication. Among these was a Distinguished Building Award from the American Institute of Architects Chicago Chapter in 2011. The library also earned second place in the First Baku International Architectural Competition, and was a finalist for the Chicago Building Congress New Construction award and the libraries category of the Architizer A+ Awards. Beyond the original purpose of aiding in research endeavors, Mansueto has earned a place in the collegiate community of the University of Chicago through the attention it has drawn from those within the university and beyond. In 2013, the makers of the film Divergent, interested in the unique glass design of the library, used Mansueto in a scene of the futuristic dystopian film, allowing select undergraduates to take part in the process. The library has also been a part of a handful of items within the University of Chicago Scavenger Hunt, better known amongst the faculty and students as Scav. These aspects of Mansueto have made it one of the staples of the many tours the university gives to its prospective students, establishing the library as a common representative of the university. Figures Figures on the construction of the library: Height of the dome at the highest point: 35 feet Length: 240 feet Width: 120 feet Storage capacity: 3.5 million volumes North American libraries with larger automated storage and retrieval systems: 0 Typical book retrieval time: 5 minutes References External links
Waukegan Building

The Waukegan Building is a historic skyscraper in Waukegan, Illinois, United States. Located in what was the central business district, it was the city's first skyscraper when it opened in March 1925. History By 1920, Waukegan, Illinois had grown to a small city with a population nearing 20,000, a 19.6% increase over the previous decade. The Waukegan National Bank Corporation was founded in 1914 to provide capital to the growing population. However, the bank quickly outgrew its original three-story headquarters at the corner of Genesee and Washington Streets. In 1924, they hired the St. Louis Bank Equipment Company to build a much larger building on the same site. The bank opened for a public viewing on March 7, 1925. Upon its opening, it became the tallest building in Lake County. The original tenants were the Waukegan National Bank, the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois, and a Walgreens. The Chicago Chamber of Commerce had an office on the eighth floor. Various professionals such as physicians and attorneys occupied other suites. The Great Depression hit the bank hard and by 1931 the Waukegan National Bank was bankrupt. The Citizens National Bank moved into the vacated offices and operated for six years. A variety of retail stores and professional firms have occupied the space since. It has been largely vacant since 1985. The Waukegan Building is generally Neoclassical in design. The eight-story building has an L-shaped plan with the main elevation on Genesee Street. Exterior walls are light brown brick with limestone details. Built on a concrete foundation, the tower has a flat roof with two antennas. The main facade is divided in a typical tripartite design. References
United States Penitentiary Marion

Das United States Penitentiary Marion ist ein US-amerikanisches Gefängnis in Southern Precinct, Williamson County, Illinois, und entspricht dem mittleren Sicherheitsstandard. Die Einrichtung ist nahe Marion gelegen. Sie wurde 1963 gebaut, um einen Ersatz für das geschlossene Gefängnis Alcatraz in San Francisco zu finden. Geschichte Das Gefängnis wurde 1963 in Betrieb genommen. Es war zunächst das US-Gefängnis mit dem höchsten Sicherheitsstandard. Neben ADX Florence in Colorado war es das einzige „Supermax“-Gefängnis, was dem höchsten Sicherheitsstandard entspricht. Im Jahr 1975 marschierten fünf Gefangene (Maurice Philion, Arthur Mankins, Henry Gargano, Edward Roche und Dennis Hunter) durch die Haupttür des Gefängnisses und entkamen. Einer der Ausbrecher war als Elektriker mit der Reparatur der elektronischen Schließmechanismen vertraut gewesen. Er hatte aus einem Radio eine Art Fernbedienung für die Türen gebaut und diese der Reihe nach geöffnet. Alle wurden wieder eingefangen. Am 24. Mai 1978 versuchten die Gefangenen Garrett Brock Trapnell, Martin Joseph McNally und James Kenneth Johnson mit einem entführten Hubschrauber zu fliehen. Der gekidnappte Pilot konnte der Entführerin Barbara Oswald (die Ehefrau Garrett Brock Trapnells) jedoch die Waffe abnehmen und sie erschießen. Am 21. Dezember 1978 entführte die 17-jährige Robin Oswald, die Tochter von Barbara Oswald und Garrett Brock Trapnell, den Trans-World-Airlines-Flug 541 von Louisville International Airport nach Kansas City International Airport. Sie wollte ihren Vater aus Marion freipressen. Sie gab nach zehn Stunden Verhandlungen auf. Am 22. Oktober 1983 wurden die beiden Gefängnisbeamten Merle E. Clutts und Robert L. Hoffman von Mitgliedern der Aryan Brotherhood ermordet. Clutts wurde von Thomas Silverstein erstochen. Im Jahr 2006 wurde Marion auf die mittlere Sicherheitsstufe herabgestuft. Durch die dadurch möglichen baulichen Veränderungen erhöhte sich die Anzahl der maximal möglichen Gefangenen auf über 1.000.
