Buccaneer Arena

Buccaneer Arena is a defunct multi-purpose arena in Urbandale, Iowa. It was home to the Des Moines Buccaneers ice hockey team in the United States Hockey League from 1980 to 2024. Before the Buccaneers began playing in 1980, the International Hockey League's Des Moines Capitols franchise played here. Building history The arena opened on November 12, 1961 as the Des Moines Ice Arena. It was later renamed the Metro Ice Sports Arena before becoming Buccaneer Arena in mid-2004. On September 22, 2005, Buccaneer Arena was renamed 95-KGGO Arena after Citadel Broadcasting, owners of radio station KGGO, purchased the naming rights to the arena. It is nicknamed the "Madhouse on Hickman" for its location on Hickman Road. In 2008, the arena changed its name back to Buccaneer Arena. In 2020, the arena's roof was damaged during the August 2020 Midwest derecho. On April 23, 2026, Des Moines Buccaneers president Eric Grundfast announced the Buccaneer Arena would close, citing the age and the increased cost to maintain the arena. Tenants The arena served as home ice for the Des Moines Buccaneers' ten championship seasons in the 1990s: Anderson Cup regular season champions in 1993–94, 1994–95, 1997–98, 1998–99; Clark Cup playoff champions in 1992, 1995, 1999, 2006; and Gold Cup Junior A champions in 1992, 1995, 1998. Following the damage to the roof in 2020, the team was forced to start the 2020–21 season at Wells Fargo Arena in downtown Des Moines. In November 2020, the team announced it would be replacing the old arena as part of a project to turn the former Younkers department store location in Merle Hay Mall into a new 3,500-seat, $59 million arena. Buccaneer Arena completed repairs in January 2021, and plans to build the new hockey arena within the mall would fall through in July of 2024 due to the team's lease expiring. Mall officials have also stated they will continue to build the new venue and are open to renegotiating their lease with the team as well. In 2023, MASL2's Iowa Demon Hawks semi-professional indoor soccer team began playing home games at the arena. In August 2024, the Buccaneers announced they would temporarily move to the MidAmerican Energy Co. Recplex located in West Des Moines for the 2024-25 USHL season due to a mechanical issue that would delay the arena's ability to make ice prior to the team's season-opening game the following month. In the same statement, team officials also proclaimed they would continue to make the arena operational again until "it is no longer sustainable to do." In 2007, the arena hosted the College Hockey America championship tournament. The arena has also hosted mixed martial arts.

Buchanan School

Buchanan School, also known as The Naval Station, is a historic building located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. Since 2019 the building has housed a senior living apartment building. History Buchanan School was built as School #14 in 1904 when J. B. Young was superintendent. It was one of eight elementary schools that were opened during his 30-year administration. Its name was changed to Buchanan four years after it opened. When the "6-3-3" system was adopted by Davenport schools around 1919 Buchanan continued serving its west end neighborhood as an elementary school. It continued in that capacity until 1940. The building sat vacant until 1951 when it was converted for use as a U.S. Naval Training Center. They continued to use the building until 1978 when it sat vacant again. In 1988 it was used for storage for an antique auto parts business. The building has subsequently been vacated again and has deteriorated. In 2014 a proposal was announced to convert the former school building into 18 senior apartments, but funding fell through. By the time financing was secured the building was in a serious state of decline. The roof and the west wall, which were caving in, had to be stabilized. In the renovation process, all of the exterior's original decorative features were kept and repaired. The red clay roof tiles, bricks, and stonework that had deteriorated were replaced. On the interior, the original central staircase, classroom doors, and the open areas in the center of the second and third floors were all retained. The nearly $9 million renovation project, which was about twice the original estimate in 2014, was completed in the summer of 2019. The building, now known as The Naval Station, houses 18 senior living apartments with six units on each floor. Architecture The school building was designed by the Davenport architectural firm of Clausen & Burrows. It sits on a full city block that is irregularly shaped by the intersection of the city street grid and Telegraph Road that follows the lower line of the river bluffs at this point. The building's design combines the Colonial Revival and Renaissance Revival styles. The rectangular structure is two stories high on a raised basement. It is built entirely with yellow bricks, however, the bricks on the lower level are laid in such a way as to suggest stone. The building features a hipped roof with bracketed eaves. The south elevation of the building has two entrances framed by round arches. The building has three different window styles. There are segmented windows on the basement level, rectangular windows on the main floor, and round arch windows on the second floor. References

Burt County Missouri River Bridge

The Burt County Missouri River Bridge is a continuous truss bridge over the Missouri River connecting Burt County, Nebraska and Monona County, Iowa at Decatur, Nebraska. The bridge connects Nebraska Highway 51 and Iowa Highway 175. Interstate 29 is 7 miles east and Onawa, Iowa 8 miles east of the Missouri River. The bridge was finished in 1951 and carried the first traffic in 1955 after the US Army Corps of Engineers diverted the river to flow under the bridge.

Крытый мост Роузмен

Крытый мост Роузмен — исторический деревянный крытый мост в округе Мадисон через реку Мидл-Ривер в округе Мадисон штата Айова в США. Получил широкую известность благодаря роману «Мосты округа Мэдисон» Роберта Джеймса Уоллера и его экранизации. В 1976 году мост был добавлен в Национальный реестр исторических мест США. Описание Крытый мост Роузмен пересекает реку Мидл-Ривер примерно в десяти милях к юго-западу от города Уинтерсет. Конструкция Длина крытой части моста составляет 29,26 метров (96 футов), а с подступами — 70,1 метр (230 футов). Ширина моста — 4,26 метра (14 футов). Его крыша с очень малым уклоном покрыта просмоленными металлическими листами. Мост построен по технологии решётчатого моста с перекрещивающейся сетью досок с каждой стороны, усиленной диагонально-горизонтальной аркой для создания прочной фермы, по всей длине скрепленной металлическими болтами. Основная конструкция моста, включая дощатый настил, сделана из древесины. Мост опирается на уложенные горизонтально стальные трубы, заменившие собой деревянные. Внешнее покрытие крытого моста — доски шириной 15,2 см (6 дюймов), окрашенные в красный цвет с белой отделкой. В культуре Крытый мост Роузмен выступает местом действия в книге «Мосты округа Мэдисон» Роберта Джеймса Уоллера и показан в её экранизации, снятой Клинтом Иствудом. В романе и фильме мост Роузмен — один из крытых мостов, которые Роберт Кинкейд должен сфотографировать по заказу National Geographic. В поисках этого моста он останавливается у дома Франчески Джонсон, которая затем едет с ним, чтобы показать дорогу. Добравшись до моста Роузмен, он делает несколько пробных снимков, чтобы вернуться на следующий день при хорошем освещении. Ночью Франческа приезжает к мосту и оставляет на нём приглашение на ужин для фотографа, который находит приколотую записку во время фотографирования моста утром следующего дня. Мост изображён на постерах фильма. Примечания
Cedar Covered Bridge

Die Cedar Covered Bridge, auch Casper Bridge, ist eine gedeckte Brücke im Madison County (Iowa) in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die 1883 errichtete Brücke führte ursprünglich über den North River und wurde erst 1920 an den heutigen Standort verschoben. In neuerer Zeit wurde sie zweimal Opfer von Brandstiftung, aber beide Male wieder aufgebaut. Geschichte Cedar Covered Bridge war eine von ursprünglich 19 gedeckten Brücken im Madison County. Alle Holzbrücken mussten auf Anordnung der Aufsichtsbehörde des Countys als gedeckte Brücken ausgeführt werden, um die großen Bodenbalken vor der Witterung zu schützen. Deren Ersatz wäre viel kostspieliger gewesen als der regelmäßige Ersatz des für die Brückenseiten und das Dach verwendeten Holzes. Die 1883 errichtete Brücke führte ursprünglich über den North River und wurde erst 1920 an den heutigen Standort verschoben. Sie wurde bis 1964 vom regulären Verkehr genutzt, bis für den Durchgangsverkehr weiter östlich eine neue Brücke gebaut wurde. Die Holzbrücke kann aber immer noch befahren werden. Es ist die einzige Brücke im County, die noch befahren werden kann. Das maximale Fahrzeuggewicht darf aber vier Tonnen nicht übersteigen. Die Brücke wurde am 3. September 2002 durch Brandstiftung zerstört, worauf sie für 772.824 US-Dollar wieder aufgebaut wurde und am 23. August erneut dem Verkehr übergeben wurde. Die Replika der Brücke wurde aber abermals ein Opfer der Brandstiftung im Jahr 2017, wurde aber abermals wieder aufgebaut und 2019 wieder dem Verkehr übergeben.
