Pont couvert Cedar

Le pont couvert Cedar (en anglais : Cedar Covered Bridge) est un pont couvert en bois situé à Winterset, dans le comté de Madison, en Iowa. Le pont a été détruit dans un incendie et un second fut reconstruit pour le remplacer. Le premier pont a été construit en 1883 par Benton Jones au nord de Winterset sur Cedar Creek, à un lieu désormais traversé par l'U.S. Route 169. Long de 23 mètres de long, il a été déplacé en 1921 à un autre emplacement sur Cedar Creek. Une photo de ce pont figure sur la couverture de la première édition du roman Sur la route de Madison et apparaît dans son adaptation cinématographique. Il a été rénové en 1998. Il a été nommé au Registre national des lieux historiques en 1976, mais à la suite de sa destruction par un incendie criminel le 3 septembre 2002, il a été retiré de la liste la même année. Un pont de remplacement a été construit entre décembre 2003 à septembre 2004 selon les mêmes plans et matériaux d'origine en utilisant des techniques authentiques. Il a rouvert en octobre 2004.

Calamus Creek Bridge

The Calamus Creek Bridge near Maxwell, Iowa is a concrete Luten arch bridge constructed in 1905. It was built by N. M. Stark and Company for a cost of $900. It has a 25-foot (7.6 m) single span and a total length of 45 feet (14 m). In 1998 the Calamus Creek Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), one of several N. M. Stark Luten bridges on the register. The NRHP nomination for the bridge says: Before the codification of bridge design in the state in 1913, Stark built perhaps hundreds of Luten arches throughout Iowa, in exclusive contracts with Story and other counties. This structure in Story County is distinguished as the earliest remaining Luten arch in the state. In fact, with its 1905 construction date, it is one of the oldest Luten arches in the country, built in the same year as Daniel Luten received his patent. For this reason, it is a technologically significant, transportation-related resource. References
Camp Dodge

Camp Dodge is a military installation in the city of Johnston, Iowa. Centrally located near the capital of Iowa, it currently serves as the headquarters of the Iowa National Guard. History Original construction of the post began in 1907, to provide a place for the National Guard units to train. In 1917, the installation was handed over to national authorities and greatly expanded to become a regional training center for forces to participate in the First World War. The name Camp Dodge comes from Brigadier General Grenville M. Dodge, who organized Iowa's first National Guard unit in 1856. Although not a native-born Iowan, he became a well-known figure and resided within the state for most of his adult life. He is considered a War hero for his service and also served a term as a U.S. Congressman representing the state. In June 1917, the 163rd Depot Brigade was formed at Camp Dodge. The brigade was the base unit for the 88th Division, which processed new draftees and provided basic training. Later it appears the brigade despatched soldiers to multiple divisions, as two African American soldiers were sent to the 163rd Depot Brigade at Camp Dodge, before being posted to a front-line Pioneer Infantry Battalion in 92nd Division, the "Buffalo Soldiers Division". The 163 BDE was still at Dodge in April 1918. Upon the end of the war, the post was downsized and turned back over to state authorities. Similarly, with the outbreak of the Second World War, Camp Dodge was again handed over to the federal government; however, this time the post was used only as an induction center for new service members. Camp Dodge has served as a Guard and Reserve installation since the end of the Second World War. During World War II the Camp Dodge was defined as being at the town of Herrold, so many documents reference this name as its post office address. Herrold was surrounded by the camp. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers purchased the town in 1990 to use as a training range. The nearby city of Johnston eventually became the new camp address. Along with the numerous National Guard units located at Camp Dodge, the post is also home to the Sustainment Training Center (formerly the National Maintenance Training Center), Mission Training Complex-Dodge (MTC-Dodge), Joint Forces Headquarters, Iowa's emergency operations center, the operations center for the ICN, a MEPS installation, Iowa Law Enforcement Academy, and the State Police academy. The camp is the home of the Iowa Gold Star Military Museum, a member of the Army Museum System. Notes References Swanson, Robert (March 2011).

Canteen Lunch in the Alley

Canteen Lunch in the Alley is a short order restaurant in Ottumwa, Iowa. The original five-stool Canteen Lunch was opened in 1927, and moved west on the same street to its current address under the second street parking ramp in 1936. It is known for its loose-meat sandwiches (originally called "scrambled hamburgers" in Iowa) and homemade pies. The restaurant's loose-meat sandwich ("Canteen" locally) resembles that of a “Maid-Rite” or “Sloppy Joe” with different seasoning and condiments like pickles, ketchup and mustard. On a typical day, the lunchroom prepares 150 lbs with a finer grind than standard ground beef. Canteen Lunch in the Alley contains a horseshoe-shaped counter-top surrounded by 16 stools, typical of early to mid-20th-century lunchrooms that gained popularity in the Great Depression. The Canteen was the model for the Lanford Lunch Box restaurant opened by Roseanne Conner (played by Roseanne Barr) in the sitcom Roseanne. Barr was married to actor Tom Arnold, a native of Ottumwa, and they frequently visited Ottumwa during their marriage. In 2000, the City of Ottumwa pursued the construction of a downtown parking ramp in the current location of the canteen, offering to purchase the building or pay for its relocation. After these were rejected, in 2004 air rights were purchased above the canteen and a parking ramp was constructed overhead. In late 2015, Scott and Janice Pierce bought the restaurant.

Cathedral Historic District (Dubuque, Iowa)

Cathedral Historic District is a nationally recognized historic district located in Dubuque, Iowa, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. At the time of its nomination it consisted of 124 resources, which included 96 contributing buildings, one contributing site, one contributing structure and 26 non-contributing buildings. The district was the first residential area in Dubuque, and developed into a tightly knit neighborhood. It is located west of the original commercial district and below the bluffs of the Mississippi River that rise steeply to the west. Although its original structures no longer stand, its historic buildings are largely from the mid to late 19th century. St. Raphael's Cathedral complex, from which the district receives its name, was important in serving immigrants, including most of the Irish immigrants to the city, and in building ties. In 1985, the district was deemed to have retained "most of its original character and fabric" from the late 1800s. Washington Park (contributing site), J.H. Thedinga House (1855), Fenelon Place Elevator (1882; contributing structure), and Redstone (1888) are all individually listed on the National Register. References
Cedar Falls Ice House

The Cedar Falls Ice House is a historic building located in Cedar Falls, Iowa, United States. It was built in 1921 and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1977. The building currently serves as the Ice House Museum. History The first ice house in Cedar Falls was built in 1858 near the homestead of William Sturgis, the first permanent resident of Black Hawk County. It was destroyed in a fire on October 22, 1921. Hugh Smith, who owned Cedar Falls Ice and Fuel Company, made plans for the present structure. It was completed in November 1921 by the Cedar Falls Construction Company. The first ice harvest began on January 10, 1922. The building served as an ice house from 1922 until Smith lost his business in 1934. Cedar Falls Trust and Savings Bank took over the building. It was used as a livestock barn and later was flooded for ice skating. In 1938 the city of Cedar Falls purchased the building and leased it to the Cedar Falls Boat Club. They occupied the building until 1976 when the building was condemned. That year the Cedar Falls Historical Society decided to save the structure. After a successful fund-raising campaign the building was renovated beginning in 1978, and the Ice House Museum opened on June 24, 1979. The building was damaged in a 2008 flood. Architecture The building is a true round barn structure that measures 100 feet (30 m) in diameter and 30 feet (9.1 m) high. It is constructed of hollow clay tiles and features an aerator and a two-pitch roof. The roof is supported by a center pole and the walls of the structure. When used as an ice house it could hold between 6,000 and 8,000 tons of ice. See also List of ice companies References External links Cedar Falls Historical Society

Centennial Park (Davenport, Iowa)

Centennial Park is one of four parks located along the Mississippi River in downtown Davenport, Iowa, United States. The other three are LeClaire Park, which is immediately to the east of Centennial Park, Veterans Memorial Park, which is being developed immediately to the west, and River Heritage Park that is under development on the far east side of downtown. Development of the 250-acre (1.0 km2) park was begun in 2000. Its name is derived from the Rock Island Centennial Bridge, which is on the east side of the park. Centennial Park features a boat ramp, a playground, a gazebo, fishing areas, a dog off leash area, basketball courts, a sprayground, and a skateboard park. The skate board park is used for skateboarding, roller blades and BMX bikes. The Riverfront Parkway passes through the park, and the River's Edge, an indoor sports complex operated by Davenport Parks and Recreation, is on the northeast corner of the park. History The site where Centennial Park now sits is a former landfill used by the city of Davenport until 1975. The north part of the property was the location of a rail yard and the southern portion was used as a festival ground in the late 20th century, with a few commercial buildings on the west side of the property. The park's construction was a part of a $100 million project called River Vision that was passed by the city council in 2004. The 33,000-square-foot (3,100 m2) skate board park was the first element of the park that opened in 2006. It was designed by SITE Design Group Inc., of Tempe, Arizona. The basketball courts, concession stand and stage were opened in 2009. The last three commercial buildings on the site were torn down the same year to make way for the spray park that was constructed in 2010. In late 2010 and early 2011 part of what was the festival grounds was paved for parking and the rest is being seeded for an open green space. References
Charles Grilk House

The Charles Grilk House is a historic building located in the central part of Davenport, Iowa, United States. It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1984. History The house was designed by the Davenport architectural firm of Temple, Burrows & McLane, and is an example of one of their more modest designs. It is a reminder that architects also designed houses for people with smaller budgets as well as those who are wealthy and build larger homes. The dwelling was featured in the February 1907 edition of Architectural Review as a "Plaster House." The house was built in 1906 for Charles Grilk and has a history of brief and complicated residency and occupancy patterns. Architecture The house is a modified Dutch Colonial Revival Bungalow with an American Craftsman aesthetic in its use of materials and the self-contained efficiency of its plan. The 1½-story, frame house, follows a rectangular plan. It features a narrow, molded cornice; side-gambrel roof; and two dormers on the front. The main entrance into the house is flanked by sidelights and covered by a flared eave. There is a polygonal-bay next to the main entry. References
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad Depot (Iowa City, Iowa)

The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Passenger Station is a historic building located in Iowa City, Iowa, United States. Built in 1898 for passenger use, it was the second depot in the city. The first one was built by the Mississippi and Missouri Railroad, a predecessor of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad (CRI&P), in 1855. This one was built through the efforts of Harry Breene, the local Rock Island agent. W.K. McFarlin, CRI&P's superintendent of maintenance and construction oversaw the building's construction. Architecturally, it is a combination of the Richardsonian Romanesque and Victorian Romanesque. The depot was built to similar designs of stations in Ottawa, Illinois, and Council Bluffs, Iowa. Service included the CRI&P's Corn Belt Rocket and Rocky Mountain Rocket passenger lines. In the trains' final year there, the route was shortened to Chicago to Council Bluffs. The depot ceased operations in 1970, although the railroad continued to maintain offices here. In 1982 (two years after the Rock Island ceased operations) it was acquired by a couple of attorneys for their offices. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places the same year. The building sits adjacent to the Iowa Interstate Railroad lines, and the railroad has operated occasional excursion trains that have stopped at the former depot. References
