Turner Bridge

The K-32 Turner Bridge was a bridge that crossed the Kansas River during its almost 60 mile journey through Kansas City, and Topeka. It first opened in 1955 as a two lane steel through-truss bridge. In 2001, the bridge was torn down, due to its major superstructure problems, and with the growing area, could no longer handle the traffic flow as a two lane. By late 2002, the through-truss was gone, and a new five lane girder was in place. The bridge now carries two lanes of eastbound traffic, and three lanes westbound. The Turner Bridge marks the beginning of the Turner Diagonal. The first bridge in the area called the "Turner Bridge" was designed and announced in 1898. The first bridge was a steel bridge with three spans and had an estimated cost of $60,000 to build. There is as boat ramp located at the bridge site. The ramp is located at river mile 9.2 of the Kansas River, gps N39.093 W94.711. Access to the bridge has been closed since 2022 due to detours around work on the K-32/Turner Diagonal/Kaw Drive interchange. The project was originally scheduled for completion in 2024, but as of February 2026, the project is now expected to be complete in May 2026. References
Twin Mound, Kansas

Twin Mound is a ghost town in western Douglas County, Kansas, United States. It was named for two natural mounds that rise gently from the landscape. History Henry Hiatt was born in Dublin, Indiana, in 1816. In 1856, Hiatt, his wife and five children moved to Kansas Territory, settling in Bloomington. Shortly after his arrival, Hiatt and two other men operated a saw mill, but within a year Hiatt decided to move on and transported his family seven miles southwest. The two nearly identical mounds inspired Hiatt, for he settled in the area and founded his own community, Twin Mounds. Hiatt gave no explanation as to why he left Bloomington, but Hiatt resented the power of organized church in American society, preferring Confucius' version of the Golden Rule and possibly objected to the regulations the Bloomington Town Company was imposing on the residents. Hiatt was, to a large degree, an anarchist. Hiatt died in 1900 and was buried in a homemade coffin in Twin Mound Cemetery, a cemetery he started in 1858 when his first wife died. Eventually the s was dropped from the town name. The small farming community was growing steadily and Hiatt had big plans for the town. He began talking up the Twin Mounds Harmonic College which would teach science, facts and laws; not sect, doctrine, nature or creed. The college would also be open to all races, creeds and sexes. The reason Hiatt failed in this venture may possibly have been due to Hiatt's lack of experience and going up against stronger opposition, who wanted a university in Lawrence. The Twin Mound post office, opened in 1858, was discontinued in 1903. The townsite remains a small farming community. All that remains is the one-room schoolhouse, the cemetery and the two mounds.

Twin Mound

Twin Mound è una città fantasma degli Stati Uniti d'America della contea di Douglas nello Stato del Kansas. Deve il suo nome a due tumuli naturali che salgono dolcemente dal paesaggio. Storia Henry Hiatt nacque a Dublin, nell'Indiana, nel 1816. Nel 1856, Hiatt, sua moglie e i loro cinque figli si trasferirono nel Territorio del Kansas stabilendosi a Bloomington. Poco dopo il suo arrivo, Hiatt e altri due uomini gestirono una segheria, ma nel giro di un anno Hiatt decise di trasferirsi con la sua famiglia sette miglia a sud-ovest. I due tumuli quasi identici ispirarono Hiatt perché si stabilì nell'area e fondò la sua comunità, Twin Mounds. Hiatt non diede alcuna spiegazione sul perché abbia lasciato Bloomington, ma Hiatt si risentì del potere della chiesa organizzata nella società americana, preferendo la versione di Confucio della regola d'oro e forse si oppose ai regolamenti che la Bloomington Town Company imponeva ai residenti. Hiatt era, in larga misura, un anarchico. Hiatt morì nel 1900 e fu sepolto in una bara fatta a mano nel Twin Mound Cemetery, un cimitero che iniziò nel 1858, quando morì la sua prima moglie. Alla fine la s venne rimossa dal nome della città. La piccola comunità agricola stava crescendo costantemente e Hiatt aveva grandi piani per la città. Cominciò a parlare del Twin Mounds Harmonic College che insegnava scienze, fatti e leggi; non setta, dottrina, natura o credo. Il college sarebbe stato aperto anche a tutte le razze, credi e sessi. Il motivo per cui Hiatt fallì in questa impresa è probabilmente dovuto alla mancanza di esperienza di Hiatt e alla lotta contro un'opposizione più forte che voleva un'università a Lawrence. L'ufficio postale di Twin Mound, aperto nel 1858, fu chiuso nel 1903. Il sito della città rimane una piccola comunità agricola. Tutto ciò che rimane è la scuola di una stanza, il cimitero e i due tumuli.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.

Wichita City Carnegie Library Building

The Wichita City Carnegie Library Building located at 220 S. Main Street in Wichita, Kansas, Sedgwick County, Kansas, United States, is a Carnegie library built in 1915. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. The two-story, limestone Beaux Arts building stands in the southwestern part of Wichita's central business district, directly south of the old City Hall. Its façade orientation is west. The building measures approximately one hundred and twenty-eight feet from north to south and eighty-three feet from east to west. After the completion of Wichita's Central Library in 1966, the Wichita City Carnegie Library Building served as city offices and the municipal court until the Wichita Omnisphere and Science Center established its tenancy in 1976, followed by changing tenants. The two-story, ashlar cut, limestone block building sits on an ashlar cut, limestone block, raised foundation with a multiply moulded watertable. Three bays comprise the rectangular building's façade and rear. The building's main body is one bay deep, a one-bay-by-one-bay brick unit extends from the rear elevation's center bay. A parapetted entry pavilion projects from the facade's center bay. A short, square tower rises from the building's central bay, covered by a rounded, truncated hipped roof sheathed with pantiles and surmounted by a monitor roof. Tripartite windows with translucent glass pierce each wall of the central tower. Standing seam metal covers the gable roofs of the two main wings, the metal may have been tarred. Two skylights, which have been covered due to water leakage, pierce the gable roofs midway. The entry pavilion and the rear extension have low roofs hidden by parapets, they are likely covered with tar and gravel. The building retains its original metal drain pipes on the outer edges of the façade and the rear extension. A limestone or terracotta entablature, consisting of a multiply moulded bottom course surmounted by an egg and dart architrave, a bracketed frieze, and an incised vegetal and shell motif cornice engages the building on all elevations except the rear. The interior was designed by interior designer Louise Caldwell Murdock, a noted interior designer trained at the Parsons School of Fine Art in New York. In 1987 it was described that the building "maintains its original atrium floorplan and ceramic tiled floors. The beamed and coffered first level ceiling, the Doric pilasters below the ceiling beams, the first level marble columns, the egg and dart moulding ceiling cornice on the first level, the wooden door and window surrounds, the double cast iron staircase in the vestibule, and the three story, classically detailed atrium surround are retained." In 2006, Fidelity Bank purchased the building, and is now its corporate headquarters. References

Red Rocks State Historic Site

The Red Rocks State Historic Site is a Kansas historic site at 927 Exchange Street in Emporia, Kansas. It preserves the William Allen White House, also known as Red Rocks, which was the home of Progressive journalist William Allen White from 1899 until his death in 1944. The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976. The property, designated a state historic site in 2001, is operated by the Kansas Historical Society. Description and history Red Rocks is located in a residential area northeast of downtown Emporia, at the southwest corner of Exchange Street and East 10th Avenue. The landscaped property includes the house of William Allen White, the house of his mother Mary, and a small visitors center. The main house is a 2+1⁄2-story structure, its first floor finished in red sandstone, and the upper levels framed in wood with a Tudor Revival stucco-and-half-timbered appearance. The Mother's House is a 2+1⁄2-story brick and limestone structure, with Classical Revival styling on what is basically an American Foursquare plan. Construction of the main house was begun in 1887 by Judge Almerin Gillette, but was not completed due to financial difficulties. The stone for the exterior was sourced from the Garden of the Gods area in Colorado. William Allen White and his wife Sallie purchased the unfinished shell in 1899 and finished the interior. The upper floors of the house were gutted by a fire in 1920, and rebuilt to a plan by the Kansas City architects Wight & Wight. The Mother's House was built in 1903 or 1904, and was occupied by White's mother Mary until her death in 1924. The main house remained in the White family (owned by a foundation from 1988) until 2001, when it was donated to the state. William Allen White became a prominent national figure due to his writing for the Emporia Gazette (which he owned and edited), and for his role in organizing the progressive elements of the Republican Party in the first three decades of the 20th century. He helped organize the Bull Moose Party candidacy of Theodore Roosevelt in 1912, and was an influential voice representing small-town America.

Botanica opened the Downing Children's Garden in July 2011 and features several themed areas including the monster woods, salamander stream, granddaddy's musical maze, a rainbow and sunflower fountain and plaza. A new events center opened in 2014 which will hold 299 people in chairs or 240 at tables. The inspiration for it came from the wood-and-glass Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. “It’s not a church but it can give that feeling, particularly when you have something spiritual like a wedding. It has that ambience.” Botanica hosts more than 200 weddings a year, bringing in about 27 percent of its revenue, but it wasn't built with such rentals in mind. In May 2014, it was announced the 1949 Allan Herschell Company carousel from the former Joyland Amusement Park was donated to the Botanica and would be placed in the Downing Children's Garden.
