12th Street Bridge

The 12th Street Bridge is an automobile crossing of the Kansas River in Kansas City, Kansas. History The 12th Street Bridge dates back to the early 1900s, when it was an iron bridge. Swept away by a 1903 flood, it was rebuilt at the cost of $75,000. A judge ordered the bridge rebuilt again in 1923 and it was reopened April 22, 1926. A 1940 fire damaged the center span of the bridge and its wooden floor fell into the river. In about a year, it reopened after being rebuilt. In 2000, the thru-truss was removed and replaced with a girder, due to problems with the substructure. It is just west of the 7th Street Trafficway Bridge, and east of the 18th Street Expressway Bridge over the Kansas River. References

Brandt Hotel

The Brandt House, formerly known as the Alma Hotel and historically referred to as the Brandt Hotel, is a historic hotel building located at 402 Missouri Avenue in Alma, Kansas, United States. Constructed in 1887, the two-story limestone structure is an example of Italianate architecture typical of late nineteenth-century commercial buildings in the Flint Hills region. The property is listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and the Kansas State Register of Historic Places. History The building was constructed in 1887 by Joseph and Christena Brandt to serve travelers and railroad passengers passing through Alma during a period of regional economic growth associated with rail transportation in Wabaunsee County, Kansas. At the time of its opening, the Brandt Hotel was among the largest hotels in the community and served as a central lodging house for visitors and travelers in the region. The Brandt family moved to Alma in 1884 and initially operated another hotel before constructing the new stone hotel building on Missouri Street in 1887. Contemporary reports described the building as a substantial stone structure with approximately twenty guest rooms located on the upper floor. Following the death of Joseph Brandt in 1895, the property was sold and later operated by members of the Horne family. In 1897 the establishment became known as the Alma Hotel, a name that remained associated with the building for much of the twentieth century. The Alma Hotel continued operating under several owners throughout the twentieth century and served as an important part of Alma's historic commercial district. The building later underwent restoration and rehabilitation and reopened under the historic Brandt name as the Brandt House, preserving the historic structure while returning it to active use. Architecture The building is a two-story limestone structure designed in the Italianate architectural style. Notable architectural features include tall arched windows, a decorative pressed-metal cornice, and a prominent corner entrance facing Missouri Avenue. The structure occupies a prominent corner location within Alma's historic downtown commercial district. Historic designation The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008 in recognition of its architectural significance and its role in the commercial development of Alma, Kansas. The property is also listed on the Kansas State Register of Historic Places. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Wabaunsee County, Kansas References
Allen–Lambe House

The Allen–Lambe House (also known as the Henry J. Allen House and the Allen House) is a Prairie Style home in Wichita, Kansas, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1915 for former Kansas Governor Henry Justin Allen and his wife, Elsie. Description and history It was one of Frank Lloyd Wright's last Prairie Houses. The design influence of the prairie and Japanese architecture (Wright was working on the Imperial Hotel in Japan at the time) is apparent on both the exterior and interior. The building's exterior features a horizontal grey Carthage marble water table as a transitional element between the ground and the house, white horizontal brick joints and flush ocher head joints. The roof was designed with an emphasis on horizontal lines and covered with Ludowici tiles, featuring a unique Japanese-inspired starting course. The house's interior continued the use of brick in a blend of ochre and buff colors, with joints gilded horizontally. The living and dining rooms wrap around a sunken garden filled with lilies and koi fish. A terrace paved in quarry tile extends in from the outside, and helps to blend the two spaces. The building was designed with a central vacuuming unit, an alarm system and gas fireplace logs. Another innovation was the first firewall in a residential home. The bricks contain iron, giving it a rust color. It is currently run by the Allen House Foundation as a museum under the stewardship of the Wichita Center for the Arts. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 7, 1973.

Allen County Jail

The Old Allen County Jail is a former jail in Iola, Kansas, United States. Built in the late 1860s, it operated as a detention facility for nearly a century before a replacement opened; today, it is the Old Jail Museum, operated by the Allen County Historical Society, and it has been designated a historic site. Structure The jail is a stone rubble masonry structure, two stories tall and constructed of large blocks of limestone. Its walls are approximately 2 feet (0.61 m) thick. As originally designed, the jail contained living space for the jailer on the second story and prison space on the first story; the cells were built of steel bars and placed on the solid stone floor. The facade includes two second-story windows and a central door on the first story. Although it was called the finest jail in southeastern Kansas at the time of its completion, it was never secure; over the course of its history, many prisoners escaped by removing bars from windows or cutting holes in the roof. Early history As a result of disputes between residents of different areas of the county, Allen County lacked a jail for its initial years. The situation was resolved in 1868 after voters approved a $10,000 bond for the erection of a jail in Iola. Under the direction of the local contractors White and Hays, the building was finished in October of the following year at a price of $8,400; it was the first public building to be erected by the county government. Due to its reputation as the region's best jail, two other southeastern Kansas counties contracted with Allen County to use the structure for their own prisoners during the 1870s. Recent history By the middle of the twentieth century, the original design of the jail had become insufficient for the county's needs. No more did the jailer live in the jail; the first floor cells were abandoned, and the prisoners were confined to the second floor. In the late 1950s, county officials came to the decision that a new jail was needed; a contract for the construction of such a structure was signed in early 1957, and the new jail opened in January 1959. During this process, many local citizens expressed a desire to see the old jail preserved; the 1957 Kansas Legislature passed a law to permit the county to convey to the Allen County Historical Society, which has since converted it into a museum. In 1971, the jail was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its significant place in local history; key to its inclusion was its place as the first building erected by Allen County and its service as a rural jail for nearly ninety years. It was Allen County's only National Register property for over twenty-five years, until Iola's Northrup House was added to the Register in 1997. The current Allen County jail was built in 2004.

Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum

Das Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum ist ein Museum zum Leben der Flugpionierin und Frauenrechtlerin Amelia Earhart in ihrem Geburtshaus in Atchison im US-Bundesstaat Kansas. Geschichte Amelia Earhart kam am 24. Juli 1897 als Tochter von Edwin Stanton Earhart und Amy Otis Earhart im Schlafzimmer im zweiten Stock des Hauses zur Welt und lebte mit ihrer Schwester bis 1909 meist in diesem Haus ihrer Großeltern, das sie als ihr Elternhaus ansah. Sie wurde eine bekannte Flugpionierin, stellte verschiedene Rekorde und Erstflüge auf und gehörte der internationalen Organisation von Pilotinnen Ninety Nines an, deren erste Präsidentin sie auch war. Am 2. Juli 1937 verschwand sie auf einem Flug über dem Pazifischen Ozean, galt als verschollen und wurde am 5. Januar 1939 für tot erklärt. Das Holzhaus war 1861 im neogotischen Stil von Amelia Earharts Großvater mütterlicherseits, Alfred Gideon Otis (1827–1912), ehemaliger Richter und Präsident der Atchison Savings Bank, erbaut worden. Es liegt auf einer Anhöhe am Westufer des Missouri River mit Blick auf den Fluss. 1873 wurde es umfassend mit einem Anbau im italienischen Stil aus Backstein erweitert, wobei das Esszimmer für förmliche Anlässe, die Küche und eine Veranda angebaut wurden. Nachdem Amelia Earharts Großeltern beide 1912 gestorben waren, war das Haus zwischen 1918 und 1984 in Privatbesitz von drei verschiedenen Eigentümern und wurde als Wohnhaus genutzt. Das Museum Im Jahr 1984 spendete der ortsansässige Arzt Eugene J. Bribach 100.000 US-Dollar an die Ninety Nines zum Erwerb des Hauses. Seitdem wird das Gebäude von der Organisation instand gehalten und als „Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum“ betrieben. Das Museum stellt persönliche Erinnerungsstücke von ihr und ihrer Familie aus sowie Fotografien. Außerdem informiert es über ihre frühen Lebensjahre, ihre Karriere und ihr Verschwinden sowie über das Leben anderer Pilotinnen ihrer Zeit. Mit Geldern aus einer Spendenkampagne wurde 1994 die Fassade vollständig restauriert, eine Klimaanlage installiert und das Museum mit zeitgenössischem Mobiliar um die Jahrhundertwende zur Zeit von Amelia Earharts Geburt eingerichtet. Das zweistöckige Vorderteil des Gebäudes ist aus Holz mit horizontaler Stülpschalung errichtet, der eingeschossige Rückteil aus Ziegelmauerwerk. Eine eingeschossige, flachgedeckte Veranda erstreckt sich über die gesamte Ostseite und wird von sechs sechseckigen Säulen getragen, von denen die vier mittleren paarweise angeordnet sind. Das Satteldach hat einen zusätzlichen Giebel an der Ostseite. Die meisten Fensteröffnungen haben einen Halbkreisbogen. Einige Fenster sind mit Buntglas gefüllt. Das Haus wurde 1971 in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen und 1977 in das Register of Historic Kansas Places. Es liegt im Amelia Earhart Historical District mit weiteren architektonisch bedeutenden Gebäuden aus den Jahren 1860 bis 1928, der am 1. Februar 2002 ebenfalls in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen wurde. Weblinks Website des Museums Einzelnachweise

Bartlett Arboretum (Kansas)

The Bartlett Arboretum (20 acres; 8 hectares) is a historic, nonprofit arboretum located in Belle Plaine, Kansas, United States. It is privately owned, and open to the public seasonally, as well as upon special request. It includes a stage and seating area for outdoor concerts. The Arboretum was established in 1910 by Dr. Walter Bartlett, a general practitioner from Belle Plaine, who purchased pastureland to create his own arboretum. In the 1930s the arboretum became an approved test site for the United States Department of Agriculture which provided plants and trees from around the world for hardiness tests. It incorporates a 135-year-old Santa Fe Railroad Depot, converted to a studio, at its edge. The Arboretum now contains massive cypress, oaks and champion Japanese maples. It includes an apiary to facilitate pollination. Its steward is Robin Lynn Macy, otherwise known as a founding member of the Dixie Chicks bluegrass and country music group. It was developed over many years, from relatively barren land with water only in a slough. Early in the process, Bartlett formed a dam and also built 4 islands in the slough. According to the National Park Service: The Bartlett Arboretum is a private fifteen acre park in rural Belle Plaine, Kansas, that evolved in early 20th century from a recreational park and conservation area to an arboretum with formal gardens and experimental plots and nurseries. The arboretum largely reflects the influences of professional landscape architect and horticulturist Glenn Bartlett, his wife and floral expert Margaret Bartlett, and Glenn’s father who first purchased the property in 1910 to be used as a public athletic field for the small community and as a natural reserve complete with water fowl and non-indigenous trees. After years of being under maintained, the Bartlett Arboretum is currently being restored with the goal for it to serve as an educational and events space. The property was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on April 19, 2010. The listing was announced as the featured listing in the National Park Service's weekly list of May 7, 2010.
