Prospect Harbor Point Light

Prospect Harbor Point Light is a lighthouse on Prospect Harbor Point, which divides Sand Cove from Inner Harbor at the head of Prospect Harbor on the southern shore of Gouldsboro, Maine. Also known as Prospect Harbor Light, it was first established in 1850. The present structure was built in 1891. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Prospect Harbor Light Station in 1988. Description and history The light station at Prospect Harbor was authorized by Congress in 1847 and went into operation in 1850. At that time Prospect Harbor was home to a significant fishing fleet. The light was deactivated in 1859, after the United States Lighthouse Board claimed it was not needed because the harbor was not used as a shelter during storms. It was reactivated in 1870. In 1891 the station was rebuilt; the present tower and keeper's house date to this period. The brick oil house was added in 1905. The light was automated in 1934, but keepers remained on site until 1951, when its Fresnel lens was removed and replaced by modern optics. The station last underwent major restorative work in the early 2000s; it remains an active aid to navigation. The first tower built (in 1848) was a rubble-stone tower. This tower was replaced in 1891 by the present round wood-frame tower, which is 38 feet (12 m) in height and clad in wooden shingles. It is capped by a lantern house which is topped by a polygonal roof, and surrounded by a in iron walkway with railing. The door is on the north side, and there is a window on the west side. When built, a covered walkway joined the tower to the keeper's house, but this has been removed. The keeper's house is a two-story wood-frame structure, clad in shingles on the upper floor and clapboard on the first floor. A porch extends across part of its front, with four square posts and slatted balustrade. The roof of the porch is a continuation of the main roof, and is pierced by a gable-roof dormer. The keeper's house was heavily damaged in a June 27, 2022 fire, which was ruled accidental. The small brick oilhouse stands a short way north of the house and tower.

Phare de Prospect Harbor

Le phare de Prospect Harbor (en anglais : Prospect Harbor Point Light) est un phare actif situé à Prospect Harbor (en), dans le Comté de Hancock (État du Maine). Il est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 14 mars 1988 . Histoire Le premier phare de Prospect Harbour Point a été mis en service en 1850. Sa construction fut autorisée par le Congrès en 1847 et mis en service en 1850. À cette époque, Prospect Harbor abritait une importante flotte de pêche. C'était une tour construite en moellons. La lumière a été désactivée en 1859, après que le United States Lighthouse Board ait déclaré ne plus en avoir besoin, car le port n’était pas utilisé comme abri pendant les tempêtes. Il fut réactivé en 1870. La structure actuelle a été reconstruite en 1891. La tour, une structure à ossature bois, et la maison du gardien datent de cette époque. La tour est coiffée d'une lanterne surmontée d'un toit polygonal et entourée d'une passerelle en fer munie d'une balustrade. La porte est du côté nord et il y a une fenêtre du côté ouest. Une fois construit, un passage couvert a rejoint la tour à la maison du gardien, mais celle-ci a été enlevé. La maison du gardien est composée d'une structure à ossature de bois sur deux étages, recouverte de bardeaux à l'étage supérieur et de bardeaux de bois au premier étage. Le bâtiment à carburant a été ajouté en 1905. La lumière a été automatisée en 1934, mais les gardiens sont restés sur place jusqu'en 1951, date à laquelle la lentille de Fresnel a été retirée et remplacée par une optique moderne. La station a subi un travail de restauration majeur au début des années 2000. Description Le phare est une tour cylindrique en bois, avec une galerie et une lanterne de 11,5 m. La tour est peinte en blanc et la lanterne est noire. Il émet, à une hauteur focale de 13 m, un éclat rouge de 0.6 seconde par période de 6 secondes, avec deux secteurs blancs. Sa portée est de 7 milles nautiques (environ 13 km) pour le feu rouge et 9 milles nautiques (environ 1 km) pour le feu à secteurs.

Маяк Проспект-Харбор-Пойнт

Маяк Проспект-Харбор-Пойнт (англ. Prospect Harbor Point Light) — маяк, расположенный на мысе Проспект-Харбор-Пойнт на входе в залив Проспект-Харбор в черте города Гулдсборо, округ Ханкок, штат Мэн, США. Построен в 1850 году. Автоматизирован в 1951 году. История В 1847 году Конгресс США выделил 4 968,17$ на строительство маяка на входе в залив Проспект-Харбор, в 1849 году строительство было завершено, а в 1850 году маяк был введен в эксплуатацию. Он представлял собой каменный дом, служивший жилищем смотрителя, к стене которого примыкала цилиндрическая гранитная башня маяка. В 1859 году конгресс решил прекратить финансирование маяка, поскольку залив Проспект-Харбор не использовался в качестве гавани, а активность торговых судов в этом районе была невелика. Это решение было пересмотрено в 1870 году, и маяк был возвращен в эксплуатацию. Строение пытались отремонтировать в 1881, но все же десятилетие отсутствия эксплуатации сказалось на его состоянии, и в 1889 году его состояние было признано плохим. В 1891 было выделено 2 750$ на строительство нового маяка и 3 500$ на строительство нового жилища. В том же году строительство было завершено. Новый двухэтажный дом смотрителя был построен из дерева на фундаменте от старой постройки. Новая башня маяка была построена также из дерева на небольшом расстоянии от дома смотрителя, их соединял крытый деревянный переход. В 1897 году дополнительно построили эллинг. В 1905 году была построена небольшая котельная. Маяк был автоматизирован Береговой охраной США в 1934 году (но смотритель оставался на маяке до 1951 года), и продолжает функционировать в настоящее время. В 1988 году маяк был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест. В начала 2000-х годов маяк был передан Американскому фонду сохранения маяков и отреставрирован на его средства и добровольные пожертвования граждан. Фотографии Примечания

Rumford Point Congregational Church

The Rumford Point Congregational Church is an historic church at the State Route 5 and U.S. Route 2 junction in Rumford, Maine. Built in 1865, the Greek Revival church building is notable as one of a very small number of 19th-century churches in Maine with original Trompe-l'œil artwork on its walls and ceilings. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. Description and history The church is located in the historic village of Rumford Point, close to a bridge crossing the Androscoggin River. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a relatively simple two-stage tower topped by a steeple and weathervane. The main facade is three bays wide, with the entrance at the center, framed by pilasters and a fully pedimented gable, set above decorative panels. The flanking bays, like those on the side walls, have tall sash windows. The first stage of the tower is square, finished in clapboards, while the second stage, which houses the belfry, is flushboarded, and has round-arched louvered openings. The church was built in 1865. The church's most striking feature is the series of frescoed paintings on its walls and ceilings. Apparently painted by the itinerant artist Jonathan Adams Bartlett, they are among the youngest and rarest such work known in the state from the 19th century. The paintings are a Trompe-l'œil depiction of a domed ceiling, with the walls painted to give the illusion of a much larger choir/apse space. The ceiling art has experienced some water damage.

Deer Island (Piscataquis County, Maine)

Deer Island ist eine Insel im Moosehead Lake in Maine, dem nordöstlichsten Bundesstaat der USA. Sie misst etwa 5 mal 1 bis 2 km und ist die zweitgrößte Insel im See, nach dem benachbarten Sugar Island. Geschichte 1912 förderte eine archäologische Untersuchung an etwa 50 Plätzen rund um den See und auf den Inseln an 21 Stellen archäologische Artefakte zu Tage. Auch fand man Anfang der 1920er Jahre Pfeilspitzen auf Deer Island. Zudem befinden sich auf der Insel Grabstätten der Kineo Band of Malicites, eines Maliseet-Stamm, der auch als Moosehead Lake Indians bezeichnet wurde. Er beantragte 2012 seine offizielle Anerkennung als Stamm. 1834 kauften Aaron Capen (1796–1886), ein General in der Miliz von Massachusetts, zusammen mit seinem Sohn Deer Island und dazu Sugar Island, um dort Weymouthskiefern (white pines) fällen zu können. Aaron Capens Familie kam aus Dorchester bei Boston in Massachusetts. Auf beiden Inseln befanden sich Ende des Jahrhunderts Hotels. Die Insel ist heute unbewohnt; am Nordende befindet sich ein Zeltplatz. Anmerkungen

Fifth Maine Regiment Community Center

The Fifth Maine Regiment Community Center is a historic building at 45 Seashore Avenue on Peaks Island, an island neighborhood of Portland, Maine in Casco Bay. It was built in 1888 by American Civil War veterans "as a memorial to their deceased comrades and as a reunion hall for themselves." It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 and designated a Greater Portland Landmark in 1984. Today it is open as a museum. Description and history Peaks Island, the most populous island in Casco Bay, is east of the main Portland peninsula. The Fifth Maine Regiment Community Center is on the south side of the island, facing the channel separating it from Cushing Island. The center is a two-story wood frame structure, 2-1/2 stories in height, with a dormered gable roof and a three-story circular observation tower at one corner. The roof extends down to shelter a porch that encircles the building. The exterior walls are finished in wooden clapboards, with bands of decoratively cut wooden shingles. The structure is built directly on a ledge that slopes down to the shore, where there is a rocky beach. The community center was built in 1888 and is a notable example of a memorial and clubhouse built in the Queen Anne style. It was built on donated land by a fraternal association of veterans of the 5th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, which sought to memorialize its fallen comrades and to provide a space for regular reunions. The building continues to be held by that organization. It is open as a museum of local and Civil War history and events; it also functions as an event space.

Great Duck Island Light

Great Duck Island Light is a lighthouse on Great Duck Island in the town of Frenchboro, Maine, USA. Established in 1890, the light marks the approach to Blue Hill Bay and the southern approaches to Mount Desert Island on the central coast of Maine. The light was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Great Duck Island Light Station on March 14, 1988. The light is an active aid to navigation maintained by the United States Coast Guard; the property is owned by the College of the Atlantic, which operates a research station there. Description and history Great Duck Island is a small 237 acres (96 ha) island, located in the Gulf of Maine about 9 miles (14 km) south of Mount Desert Island off the coast of central Maine. The light station occupies a roughly 11-acre (4.5 ha) parcel at the southern tip of the island. Five buildings (out of a larger number built) make up the station: a tower, keeper's house, fog station house, oil house, and a small shed. The tower, built in 1890, is a cylindrical brick structure 35 feet 6 inches (10.82 m) in height, with an attached workroom. It is capped by a circular iron railing, which surrounds the ten-sided lantern house. The gable-roofed workroom extends to the west. Just south of the tower is the square brick hip-roofed fog signal building, also built in 1890. A small brick oil house stands east of the tower. Toward the northern end of the property is the 1890 keeper's house, one of three built and the only one to survive. It is a 1½ story wood-frame structure, with clapboard siding and a dormered gable roof. The shed, which also appears to date to 1890, stands northeast of the house. The station was established in 1890, a time when Mount Desert Island was becoming a popular resort destination. The light was first magnified by a fifth-order lens, which was replaced by a fourth-order lens in 1902. The light was automated in 1986. The fog station was originally operated by steam and powered by coal, for which an engine house, coal bunk, and rain catchment house were built. These facilities were torn down by the Coast Guard when the station was automated. Most of Great Duck Island was purchased in joint tenancy by the state and the Nature Conservancy in 1984. The station property was acquired in 1997 by the College of the Atlantic, which established the Alice Eno Field Research Station to perform research on the large bird population that the island supports. The keeper's house is used as a residence by student researchers. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Hancock County, Maine References

Маяк острова Грейт-Дак

Маяк острова Грейт-Дак (англ. Great Duck Island Light) — маяк, расположенный на острове Грейт-Дак в границах города Френчборо, округ Хэнкок, штат Мэн, США. Построен в 1890 году. Автоматизирован в 1986 году. История Впервые о необходимости маяка в районе островов Грейт-Дак и Литл-Дак, получивших свои названия благодаря большому количеству обитающих на них птиц, заговорили в 1842 году. Но средства были выделены только после того, как остров Маунт-Дезерт, расположенный севернее, стал популярным курортом, и количество судов в этом районе увеличилось. В 1889 году Конгресс США выделил 30 000$ на строительство маяка. Работы по его строительству начались в мае 1890 года, а 31 декабря 1890 года маяк был открыт. Он представлял собой цилиндрическую кирпичную башню с линзой Френеля на вершине, к которой сбоку примыкает небольшое хозяйственное помещение. Также комплекс зданий включал в себя три жилых дома, небольшую котельную и сарай Из трех жилых домов на настоящий момент сохранился только один. Маяк был автоматизирован Береговой охраной США в 1986 году. В 1988 году он был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест. В 1997 году комплекс зданий маяка был приобретен Атлантическим Колледжем, который использует его для изучения значительной популяции птиц, обитающей на острове. Дом смотрителя используется для проживания студентов-исследователей. Примечания
