Маяк острова Либби

Маяк острова Либби (англ. Libby Island Light) — маяк, расположенный на острове Южный Либби, округ Вашингтон, штат Мэн, США. Построен в 1822 году. Автоматизирован в 1974 году. Местоположение Острова Либби расположены на южном входе в залив Мачайес, через который проходит торговый путь одноименному городу. Когда-то эти острова были одним островом, соединенным песчаным перешейком. Потом перешеек был размыт, и остров разделился на Южный Либби и Северный Либби. Маяк расположен на южном острове, но в названии по-прежнему осталась отсылка к единому острову. История Чтобы обеспечить безопасную навигацию до города Мачайес, летом 1822 года Конгресс США выделил 2850$ на строительство маяка на островах Либби. Для строительства была выбрана южная часть южного острова. В ноябре 1822 года маяк был открыт. Он представлял собой цилиндрическую каменную башню, к которой сбоку примыкал небольшой дом смотрителя. Качество работ было крайне невысоким, и после зимы 1822—23 годов в башне образовались трещины, а в апреле 1823 года ее вершина обвалилась. Башню почили, ремонт обошелся в 1449$, но те не менее, уже в 1842 году постройка находилась в плохом состоянии. В 1848 году башню разобрали и выстроили заново (по тому же проекту), а в 1854 году был построен новый дом смотрителя. В 1855 году на башню маяка установили линзу Френеля. Маяк был автоматизирован Береговой охраной США в 1974 году. В настоящее время он работает на солнечной энергии. В 1976 году он был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест. Примечания
Limington Academy

Limington Academy is a historic private academy building on Maine State Route 117 in the center of Limington, Maine. The Academy was founded in 1848, and the Greek Revival style building was completed in 1854. The building, still owned by the academy trustees, is still used for educational purposes. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. Description and history The Limington Academy building is set on the west side Cape Road (SR 117), a short way south of its junction with Maine State Route 11, which marks the center of the rural community. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with clapboard siding, granite foundation, and a gabled roof topped by an octagonal cupola. The east-facing front facade is four bays wide, with the outer bays taken up by recessed porches that extend for two bays along the sides. The porches are supported by paneled square posts, details repeated in pilasters at the building corners. The front gable is fully pedimented, with a triangular louvered fan at its center. Limington Academy was founded in 1848 as a subscription school. The primary founders were Dr. Samuel M. Bradbury, Rev. J H. Garmon, Arthur McArthur, Esq., James McArthur, Gideon L. Moody, and Isaac L. Mitchell. William G. Lord headed the school from 1851 to 1894. Originally, there were no grades and students attended until they were prepared for college or work. The school met in one of the village school buildings, and then in Masonic hall, before this building was constructed in 1854. By the end of the 19th century the school had reached its height, drawing students from nearby towns. In 1895 the school became the de facto public high school for the area. The academy is now defunct, but the trustees still own the building and the local public schools rent space there for elementary school classes.

Little River Light

Little River Light is a lighthouse on an island at the mouth of the Little River, in Cutler, Maine. A light station was first established at this site in 1846, and the present structure was built in 1876. It is one of the only iron lighthouses in the state, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Little River Light Station on March 14, 1988. The light station is now owned by the American Lighthouse Foundation, which offers overnight stays in the keeper's house, and occasional tours of the property. Description and history The Little River is an east–west tidal inlet on the coast of Down East Maine, with the town of Cutler on its northern bank. At the mouth of the inlet stands Little River Island, near whose easternmost point the lighthouse stands. The station consists of a tower, keeper's house, oilhouse, and boathouse. The tower is an iron structure, with a supporting frame of steel and brick. It is 35 feet (11 m) tall, with an octagonal lantern house surrounded by a metal balcony and railing. Entrance is gained via a projecting gable-roofed vestibule. The keeper's house is an L-shaped two-story wood-frame structure, with a shed-roof ell across one side. The oilhouse is a small brick gable-roofed structure set a short way inland. The boathouse, a simple wood-frame structure, is located at the western end of the island, connected to the rest of the station by a wooden boardwalk. The light station on Little River Island was authorized in 1846, and began operation the following year. The present tower was built in 1876 by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, and the house was built in 1888, replacing an earlier stone structure. The boathouse dates to 1881, and the oilhouse was added in 1905. In 1916, the original 5th order Fresnel lens was upgraded to a 4th order. In the 1960s the Fresnel lens was removed and a DCB-10 rotating lens put in its place. The light was automated in 1975 when a modern 300mm optic was placed on a nearby steel skeleton tower. In 2001 the tower was leased to the American Lighthouse Foundation, which restored the tower, allowing the light to be displayed once again in the original lantern. A Vega revolving beacon was lit there on October 2, 2001, after 26 years of darkness in a ceremony attended by over 1000 people. Because the event was timed shortly after the events of 9–11, the relighting was noted as a "Beacon of Freedom to the World." The keeper's house has since been fully restored and is available through for overnight stays. Periodic open houses of the property are offered during the summer months.

Маяк Литл-Ривер

Маяк Литл-Ривер (англ. Little River Light) — маяк, расположенный на небольшом острове на входе в залив Литл-Ривер, город Катлер округ Вашингтон, штат Мэн, США. Построен в 1846 году. Автоматизирован в 2001 году. История Небольшой остров на входе в залив Литл-Ривер, за которым располагается гавань города Катлер, представлял опасность для навигации в темное время суток. Потому в марте 1847 года Конгресс США на строительство маяка в этом месте. Весной 1848 года он был открыт. Маяк представлял собой каменную цилиндрическую башню высотой 7 метров, которая вдавалась в восточную стену дома смотрителя, также сделанного из камня. В 1855 году на маяк установили линзу Френеля. Качество работ было невысоким, и уже в 1870-х годах башня пришла в состояние "не подлежащее ремонту". Вместо нее в 1876 году построили более высокую (12 метров) цилиндрическую башню из чугуна. В 1888 году на фундаменте от старого дома смотрителя возвели новый. Также комплекс зданий включал в себя небольшую котельную, противотуманную колокольню и эллинг. В 1975 году Береговая охрана США поставила новый автоматический маяк по соседству, и маяк Литл-Ривер перестали использовать. В 2001 году маяк перешел к Американской Организации Поддержки Маяков, которая восстановила его, и в 2 октября 2001 маяк был вновь торжественно открыт и введен в эксплуатацию. В настоящее маяк время продолжает работать. Дом смотрителя используется как гостиница. В 1988 году он был включен в Национальный реестр исторических мест.

Lord Block

The Lord Block is a historic commercial building in downtown Lewiston, Maine. Built in 1865, it is one of downtown Lewiston's oldest commercial buildings, and a reminder of the city's early commercial character. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. Description and history The Lord Block is located on the southern half of Lisbon Street, Lewiston's main business district, at the southwest corner of Lisbon and Cedar Streets. It is a 2-1/2 story masonry structure, built out of load-bearing brick with granite trim, with a front-facing gable roof that has a cross gable on the north side. The front has two virtually identical storefronts, each with a recessed entrance on the left and a plate glass display window to the right. The doors and windows are separated by rusticated granite piers, with a modern awning now extending across both storefronts and on to the adjacent building. Upper floor and side facade windows are sash windows set in rectangular openings, with granite sills and lintels. The north-facing gable is finished in decorative cut shingles, and has two window bays. The building was constructed in 1865 for James C. and Rufus Lord, dealers in "provisions", and was probably one of the first commercial businesses on the southern stretch of Lisbon Street, near the mills. Its deed restrictions limited its height, and required masonry construction. The store was apparently successful: James Lord was able to build an elaborate house on Main Street in 1885.

Loring Air Force Base Alert Area

The Loring Air Force Base Alert Area is a former alert area for B-52 Stratofortress aircraft of the 42d Bombardment Wing situated at the former Loring Air Force Base at Limestone, Maine. It was constructed in 1960 due to a demand by the Strategic Air Command that its bomber bases have a staging area to launch alerts from. History The alert force at Loring was established on October 15, 1957. Three months later, the 42d Bombardment Wing began supporting an alert force with six aircraft, later expanding to the entire wing. During the later half of 1958, the alert force was a member of Operation Head Start, the first test in the United States Air Force of sustained airborne alert operations. At or around this time, it was decided to move the alert force to a dedicated location to the southeast of the runway. From 1960 until 1967, alert forces remained at the new location, until the 1965 submission of Project One Roof was implemented. The submission of this project by base staff consolidated alert functions back under the roof of Building 6000, which had previously hosted the alert forces until the alert area's construction. For the next sixteen years, the alert area would remain vacant until 1983, when a major renovation to the mole hole building allowed for the area to be occupied again. By 1972, the alert force was reduced so that 62% of the bomber and 72% of the tanker force would be on alert. Increased military funding in the early 1980s due to the domestic policies of Ronald Reagan's administration allowed for a wing to be added to the mole hole. This allowed for the building to be reoccupied until the drawdown of forces under the administration of George H. W. Bush in the early 1990s. Buildings The alert area is a forty acre high-security area located to the southeast corner of the runway, and bordered to the east by forest. It also contains a Christmas tree and mole hole, among other buildings. Within the alert area, a 1994 survey identified the following buildings facilities as existing: "One Christmas tree apron (Structure No. 540), the Alert Crew Readiness Building (8970), a surveillance and control tower (8990), a Security Police Entry Control Building (8965), an electric power station building (8966), a heating fuel oil storage tank (8967), and tennis courts (14501). A road surrounds the Alert Area just inside the security fence." References
