Scott County Jail (Iowa)

The Scott County Jail is the main detention facility for Scott County, Iowa, United States. Inmates are housed for no more than one year, by Iowa law. It is located in the county seat, Davenport, and is part of same facility as the Scott County Courthouse. History The oldest section of the jail was completed in 1897, but its opening was delayed until its metal jail cells were completed the following year. It was designed by prominent Davenport architect Frederick G. Clausen in the Italianate style. The style, which was popular in the late Victorian Era can be found in the limestone's rusticated finish on the lower stories and then rising to a smooth finish at the attic level. Other elements include the smaller scale, round-arched windows across the third-floor, the wide eaves and the tower on the building's north side. A tunnel connected the jail to the courthouse that faced West Fourth Street. The main entrance was moved from West Fifth Street to Ripley Street when the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad tracks were elevated in 1903. The building was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 2020 it was included as a contributing property in the Davenport Downtown Commercial Historic District. An annex was added to the jail in 1983 to alleviate crowding. It was built between the jail and the courthouse, and connected the two buildings. The jail became too small again, and in 1999 the inmate capacity was capped at 214. In 2004 a bond referendum was passed by county voters to expand the size of the jail. The $29.7 million expansion was opened in 2007. A new entrance pavilion that provides security screening to the entire complex was added at the same time. An annex that was opened on the north side of Davenport to house inmates was closed when the main jail was enlarged. The 2007 addition is a four-story structure, and faces south on West Fourth Street in Downtown Davenport. The 75,000-square-foot (7,000 m2) jail has a capacity of 354 inmates. References

Sergeant Floyd (towboat)

Sergeant Floyd is a historic museum boat, serving as the Sergeant Floyd River Museum & Welcome Center at 1000 Larsen Park Road in Sioux City, Iowa. Built in 1932 as a utility vehicle and towboat, she is one of a small number of surviving vessels built specifically for the United States Army Corps of Engineers in its management of the nation's inland waterways. The boat has been restored and drydocked, and now houses exhibits about the Missouri River and local tourism information. The museum is a facility of the Sioux City Public Museum. She was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1989. Description and history Sergeant Floyd is located in a drydock in Larsen Park, on the waterfront of the Missouri River just north of the Sioux City Marina. She is a steel-hulled craft with a superstructure of wood and steel. She has a total length of 138.4 feet (42.2 m), a beam of 30 feet (9.1 m), and a hold depth of 5.6 feet (1.7 m). When fully loaded, she had a draft of 3.9 feet (1.2 m). Her hull has a sharp prow, and has both longitudinal and transverse bulkheads. She has a hogging frame, which provides additional reinforcement in the event of running aground. The superstructure has three levels, providing crew quarters and the operating spaces of the vessel. In 1937 she underwent alterations to address vibrations in her hull, and in 1962-63 her engines were upgraded. She was built in 1932 at the Howardville Shipyard in Jeffersonville, Indiana, and was delivered to the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Kansas City District. Her early service was as a support vehicle, moving men, equipment, and supplies throughout the district, and conducting inspection voyages. She remained in active service until 1975, when Congress authorized her to be remodeled for use as a USACE museum ship. She served in this role first as a traveling exhibit, and then berthed at St. Louis, Missouri until 1982, when she was given to the city of Sioux City, Iowa.

Sergeant Floyd (pousseur)

Le Sergeant Floyd est un pousseur- remorqueur historique maintenant exposé comme navire musée à Sioux City dans l'Iowa, au Sergeant Floyd River Museum & Welcome Center . Il a été construit spécifiquement en 1932 pour le Corps du génie de l'armée des États-Unis dans le cadre de sa gestion des voies navigables intérieures du pays. Le bateau a été restauré et mis en cale sèche, et abrite désormais des expositions sur la rivière Missouri et des informations touristiques locales. Le musée est une installation du Sioux City Public Museum (en). Il est d'importance nationale car il est l'un des trois seuls pousseurs à vapeur à avoir survécu aux États-Unis. Historique Il a été construit en 1932 au chantier naval de Howardville (maintenantt Jeffboat (en)) à Jeffersonville dans l'Indiana, et a été livré au district de Kansas City du United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). C'est une embarcation à coque en acier avec une superstructure en bois et en acier. Sa coque a une proue pointue et des cloisons longitudinales et transversales. La superstructure a trois niveaux, fournissant des quartiers d'équipage et les espaces d'exploitation du navire. En 1937, il a subi des modifications pour faire face aux vibrations dans sa coque, et en 1962-63, ses moteurs ont été améliorés. Son premier service était en tant que véhicule de soutien, déplaçant des hommes, de l'équipement et des fournitures dans tout le district et effectuant des voyages d'inspection. Il est resté en service actif jusqu'en 1975, lorsque le Congrès l'a autorisé à être remodelé pour être utilisé comme navire musée de l'USACE. Il a servi dans ce rôle d'abord comme une exposition itinérante, puis a accosté à St. Louis dans le Missouri jusqu'en 1982, quand il a été donné à la ville de Sioux City. Préservation Il a été classé au registre national des lieux historiques le 5 mai 1989 et nommé National Historic Landmark le 5 mai 1989.

Severin Miller House

The Severin Miller House and barn are historic buildings located in the West End of Davenport, Iowa, United States. They were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. Severin Miller Severin Miller was born in Prussia on October 17, 1824, the son of Bartholomew and Anna Marie Miller. He was raised and educated there, and learned the machinist trade from his father. In 1846 at the age of 22, he immigrated to the United States. He landed in New York City and initially settled in Philadelphia. He moved to St. Louis, Missouri and in 1850 he moved again to Davenport. He found work as a machinist in all these places. In 1852 he purchased property on the corner of Second and Gaines Streets. He returned to St. Louis briefly before returning to Davenport in 1857 when he built a shop and home on the property he bought in 1852. Miller mainly did repair work on farm equipment. His business expanded to the manufacture of pumps and a foundry. He sold the business in 1875. In 1862 he married Christiania Baussmann and they raised four children. He built his home on Telegraph Road in 1868 in what was then a rural area outside of the city. The house remained with the Miller's daughters until they died in the mid-1940s. Architecture This house and the barn behind it are two of a very few vernacular stone structures that remain from Davenport's early decades. The house has a symmetrical five-bay front reminiscent of the Greek Revival style. The four round-arch windows all feature a keystone and above them are slabs that suggest sills of small attic windows that were never installed. The possible inspiration for the house was the architecture of Miller's native Prussia. There are plans for another wing, but they were abandoned when Christiania Miller died in 1871. The Miller Foundry produced the metal work used throughout the house. An addition was built on the back of the house sometime after 1982, which replaced a previous addition. Behind the house sits a rubble stone barn. The structure is typical of barns found in the German communities in Pennsylvania and other eastern states. It features triangular, wood relieving arches and the gable ends covered with vertical wood planks. References External links Media related to Severin Miller House at Wikimedia Commons

Shot Tower (Dubuque, Iowa)

The Shot Tower located in Dubuque, Iowa, is one of the last remaining shot towers in the United States. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and remains a recognized symbol of the city. The tower stands 120 feet 5 inches (36.70 m) tall. At its location near the Mississippi River, the tower can be seen from the riverwalk. The tower underwent extensive renovations beginning in 2004. History The tower was built in 1856 to provide lead shot. The invention of the shot tower enabled economical production of many nearly perfect lead spheres of the right size to fit in a shot gun. To make the shot, molten lead was poured through a grate at the top of the tower. The droplets that fell from the grate were of relatively uniform size, and the fall provided enough time for the liquid-metal droplet to form into a sphere before landing in the water below. The water cooled the lead to its solid state, retaining the spherical shape. The shot tower struggled almost immediately due to economic downturn from the Panic of 1857. A St. Louis company, Chadbourne & Co., purchased the Dubuque tower, but did not use it. After the war, the Standard Lumber Company used it as a fire watchtower. The tower was abandoned after a series of fires in 1911 destroyed the local lumber industry and damaged the tower's wooden interior. The fire was determined to be arson, but no one was ever arrested. In 1976, the tower was listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Tuckpointing and repairs soon followed, and in 2004, the Shot Tower became part of ongoing riverfront renovations.
