Phare de Derby Wharf

Le phare de Derby Wharf (en anglais : Derby Wharf Light) est un phare actif situé au port de Salem dans le comté d'Essex (État du Massachusetts). Il est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 15 juin 1987 . Il fait partie des structures du Salem Maritime National Historic Site. Histoire Le phare a été construit en 1871 et utilisait une lampe à huile à travers une lentille de Fresnel de cinquième ordre jusqu'en 1906. Puis il eut une lentille de Fresnel de quatrième ordre jusqu'en 1910, remplacée par une de sixième ordre jusqu'en 1970. Aujourd'hui, la lumière fonctionne à l'énergie solaire avec une balise solaire de 155 mm. C’est probablement le plus petit phare américain traditionnel. Il n'y a jamais eu de maison de gardien pour ce phare et les gardiens vivaient dans leurs propres maisons en ville et se rendaient au travail à pied. Long de près de 800 m, le quai était le cœur traditionnel du port de Salem. Un incendie désastreux en 1914 a détruit la plus grande partie du quai, mais le phare a survécu. Il a été désactivé en 1977 et le phare a été transféré au Salem Maritime National Historic Site dépendant du National Park Service. Il a été réactivé en 1983. Description Le phare est une tour quadrangulaire en brique, avec une galerie et une lanterne circulaire de 4 m de haut. La tour est peinte en blanc et la lanterne est noire. Il émet, à une hauteur focale de 7,5 m, un bref éclat rouge de 0.6 seconde par période de 6 secondes. Sa portée est de 4 milles nautiques. Caractéristiques du feu maritime Fréquence : 6 secondes (R) Lumière : 0,6 seconde Obscurité : 5,4 secondes Identifiant : ARLHS : USA-224 ; USCG : 1-10129 - Amirauté : J0296.

Dinosaur Footprints

Dinosaur Footprints (deutsch Dinosaurier-Fußspuren) ist ein 8 Acres (3,2 ha) großes Naturschutzgebiet bei der Stadt Holyoke im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten und wird von der Organisation The Trustees of Reservations verwaltet. Geschichte Der 1793 geborene Geologe und spätere Präsident des Amherst College Edward Hitchcock war einer der Begründer der Ichnologie, die sich als Zweig der Paläontologie mit fossilen Fußspuren und Fährten beschäftigt. Hitchcock verbrachte einen großen Teil seiner Forschungsarbeiten im Pioneer Valley, in dem sich heute das Schutzgebiet befindet, und entdeckte eine große Vielzahl an versteinerten Fußspuren. Vor Millionen von Jahren befand sich dort ein großer See, und die einzelnen Sedimentschichten sowie der aus Sandstein bestehende Grund des Sees bieten hohe Chancen für die Entdeckung von versteinerten Spuren. Die Trustees konnten im Jahr 1935 das Areal des Schutzgebiets erwerben. Schutzgebiet Auf dem Gelände des Schutzgebiets finden sich mehr als 130 unterschiedliche, im Sandstein erhaltene Fährten. Sie werden Gruppen von zweibeinigen, fleischfressenden Dinosauriern zugerechnet, die vermutlich bis zu 15 ft (4,6 m) groß bzw. 20 ft (6,1 m) lang und Vorfahren des Tyrannosaurus waren. Versteinerte Fußspuren finden sich entlang des gesamten Connecticut River Valley, wo sich vor etwa 190 Millionen Jahren ein subtropischer Sumpf befand. Neben den ersten wissenschaftlich beschriebenen Spuren sind auch eine Vielzahl weiterer Fossilien im Schutzgebiet zu sehen, die nicht nur von zweibeinigen Dinosauriern, sondern auch von Stromatolithen, Fischen und Pflanzen stammen. Das Schutzgebiet ist vom 1. April bis zum 30. November täglich geöffnet. Siehe auch Liste der Schutzgebiete der Trustees of Reservations Weblinks Dinosaur Footprints bei TripAdvisor Einzelnachweise

Divinity Hall, Harvard Divinity School

Divinity Hall, built in 1826, is the oldest building in the Harvard Divinity School at Harvard University. It is located at 14 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Hall was designed by Solomon Willard and Thomas Sumner, and dedicated on August 29, 1826, with William Ellery Channing giving the dedicatory speech, "The Christian Ministry." It was the first Harvard building constructed outside Harvard Yard. As George Huntston Williams wrote in his 1954 history of the Divinity School, theological students needed to be isolated from undergraduates lest they drink up "more of the spirit of the University than of the spirit of their profession." A decade later, on July 15, 1838, Ralph Waldo Emerson delivered his famous Divinity School Address, "Acquaint Thyself at First Hand with Deity," in the Hall. The building is a rectangular two-story brick building, laid in Flemish bond, with only minimal brownstone trim. It has a hip roof that is only broken by a gable at the center of the long side, part of a projecting central section three bays wide. The build has a pair of entrances on either side of this central section, which are framed by Greek Revival Doric porticos. In its early days, Divinity Hall contained the entire Divinity School. It was later used as a dormitory, then classrooms. Notable residents have included Ralph Waldo Emerson, Theodore Parker, and philosopher George Santayana. Its chapel contains a fine organ by George S. Hutchings, recently restored. Today, the building houses classrooms, faculty offices, and several administrative offices, including the Office of Ministry Studies, the Office of Religion and Public Life, and the Office of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging.

Dole–Little House

The Dole–Little House is a historic house at 289 High Road, Newbury, Massachusetts. It is now a non-profit museum operated by Historic New England and open to the public, for a fee, at rare intervals. Private tours can also be arranged. The original house was built around 1715 with materials salvaged from an earlier structure (perhaps c. 1670) for Richard Dole, a cattleman. It was built a two-room, central-chimney construction with a small kitchen shed at the rear. This shed has since been replaced with a larger lean-to. In 1954 the house was acquired by Florence Evans Bushee and restored to reflect its original period. During restoration, the lean-to was removed and reconstructed with new timbers, and a small-paned sash from the front of the house was moved to the lean-to. The paneling from one chamber was installed as an exhibition room at the National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.; a copy replaces it in the original chamber. Historic New England received the title to the house after Mrs. Bushee's death in 1975. External links Historic New England: Dole–Little House
Donald McKay House

The Donald McKay House is a privately owned historic house at 78–80 White Street in East Boston, Massachusetts. It was the residence of Donald McKay, a builder of clipper ships. History The house was built in 1844 in the Greek Revival architectural style, which is distinguished by its pitched roof and front-facing gable resembling a Greek pediment. Donald McKay (1810 – 1880) moved into the house in 1845, and during his residence there he designed and built some of the most successful clippers in history. These ships include the Flying Cloud (1851), which made two 89-day passages from New York to San Francisco; the Sovereign of the Seas (1852), which posted the fastest speed ever by a sailing ship (22 knots) in 1854; the Lightning (1854), which set multiple records, including sailing 436 miles in a 24-hour period and sailing from Melbourne, Australia, to Liverpool, England, in 64 days; and the James Baines (1854), which logged a speed of 21 knots on June 18, 1856. While living in East Boston, McKay also built five large packet ships for Enoch Train's White Diamond Line, which specialized in the Atlantic emigrant route from Europe to North America, between 1845 and 1850. These ships were the Washington Irving, the Anglo Saxon, the Anglo American, the Daniel Webster, and the Ocean Monarch. The Ocean Monarch was lost to fire on August 28, 1848, soon after leaving Liverpool and within sight of Wales; over 170 of the passengers and crew perished. During the American Civil War, the U.S. Navy contracted McKay to build the USS Nausett, one of the few Casco-class monitors to be commissioned. On January 25, 1977, a public hearing was held at Boston City Hall to consider designation. The house was designated as a Boston Landmark on May 10, 1977, it was also added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
