Busta Rhymes Island

Busta Rhymes Island is a proposed name for an otherwise unnamed island in Shrewsbury, Worcester County, Massachusetts, United States. The name refers to the rapper Busta Rhymes. The island is located in Mill Pond in Shrewsbury and measures 40 by 40 feet (12 m × 12 m). The island was named in 2005 by Shrewsbury resident Kevin O'Brien who began frequenting and caring for the upkeep of the island. O'Brien stated he wanted it to be called Busta Rhymes Island as it had "rope-swinging, blueberries, and ... stuff Busta would enjoy." Naming O'Brien has attempted to register the name with the United States Board on Geographic Names. However, the name was refused, as the rules require the person commemorated to have been dead for at least five years, and the rapper is still living. O'Brien has since attempted to have the name adopted officially through a rule related to local usage of a name and local geographic activists have named the island on Google Maps. A petition has been created for the board to formally recognize the name. In popular culture The island and the campaign to officially name it Busta Rhymes Island was the central topic of an episode of 99% Invisible which explored the naming of places. The island is also included in the book The 99% Invisible City as an example of informal geonyms.

Bash Bish Falls State Park

Bash Bish Falls State Park is a Massachusetts state park located in the town of Mount Washington. The park is named after Bash Bish Falls, Massachusetts' highest single-drop waterfall (60 feet (18 m)), which lies within its borders. The park is managed by the Department of Conservation and Recreation and is one of several nature preserves in the extreme southwestern corner of Massachusetts noted for their scenery. It is adjacent to the 4,000-acre (1,600 ha) Mount Washington State Forest, as well as New York's 5,000-acre (2,000 ha) Taconic State Park. Bash Bish State Park consists of numerous gorges and an eastern hemlock ravine forest. The slopes around the waterfall are covered by forests of trees such as maple, oak, and beech. Wildlife includes the timber rattlesnake, the peregrine falcon, bobcats, black bears, and porcupines. Activities and amenities The park's recreational opportunities include scenic viewing, hiking, and fishing. To ensure public safety entering the water, swimming and rock climbing are prohibited. Leashed dogs are allowed on the trail and at the falls. The falls can be reached via a moderately strenuous, half-mile, downhill trail. In all, there are three parking areas with trails of different lengths that provide access to the falls. The park is open from dawn to dusk.

Worthen House (Lowell, Massachusetts)

The Worthen House, on 141 Worthen Street, Lowell, Massachusetts, is the oldest bar in Lowell, originally built in 1834 as the West India Goods Store. In 1898 it was converted from a store to a tavern and a tin ceiling was installed in 1942. It is part of the Lowell National Historical Park and down the street from the Whistler birthplace, and it is noted in the National Register of Historic Places for its unusual pulley-driven fan system, which is one of only four in the United States and the only existing set known to be in its original location in the country. It can be turned on at a patron’s request. The fan was originally propelled by steam and served to keep flies off the dry goods. Today it is powered by electricity. The building is triangular in shape, with the back of the building reduced to a point and an entrance door located at another streetside point. A center front-facing door previously led to the upper floor but now opens at the bar. During Prohibition the premises were still in use as a tavern, though local ownership records from 1924–1933 show it was a "restaurant" serving "beverages" and "soft drinks". A secret panel behind the bar and above a built-in ice box reveals a hiding place for various bottles of spirits. References External links Official website

Бостонский храм

Бостонский храм Церкви Иисуса Христа Святых последних дней является сотым действующим храмом данного вероисповедания. Храм расположен в Белмонте, пригороде Бостона, штат Массачусетс, США. Освящён 1 октября 2000 года. Когда Президент Церкви Гордон Хинкли объявил в апреле 1998 года о строительстве небольших храмов, он также упомянул о цели иметь к концу 2000 года 100 храмов. Освящение Бостонского храма ознаменовало выполнение этой задачи. История Храм был заложен 30 сентября 1995 года. Строительство началось 13 июня 1997 года под контролем члена кворума двенадцати апостолов Ричарда Скотта и было завершено к середине 2000 года. С 29 августа по 23 сентября 2000 года в здание разрешался свободный доступ, во время которого его посетило около 82600 человек. Из-за судебного иска, поданного соседями, здание было освящено без имевшегося в проекте шпиля, однако Президент Гордон Хинкли заметил по этому поводу, что храм может функционировать как со шпилем, так и без него. В конце концов Верховный суд штата Массачусетс отменил решение суда низшей инстанции, которое гласило, что шпиль не является обязательным элементом храма мормонов, поэтому здание должно быть возведено с учётом существующих законов о предельной высоте строений. Однако Верховный суд штата в мае 2001 года постановил, что в компетенцию судей не входит решать какие элементы религиозных строений являются необходимыми, а какие — нет. На основании этого решения 21 сентября 2001 года шпиль с венчающим его ангелом Моронием (традиционный элемент мормонских храмов) был установлен на запланированном месте. Бостонский храм является достаточно большим относительно других храмов данной религии — его площадь составляет 6 470 квадратных метров. Снаружи храм облицован олимпийским белым гранитом.

Charles River Bridge (commuter rail)

The Charles River Bridge, referred to by the MBTA as Draw One, is a pair of railroad single-leaf, through-truss, rolling bascule bridges across the Charles River in Boston, Massachusetts, that connects North Station to MBTA Commuter Rail lines serving areas to the north. They will be replaced by three new two-track vertical lift spans from 2026 to 2034. History Although rail bridges across the Charles River near the present location of North Station have existed since the Boston and Lowell Railroad opened in 1835, the current bridges date from 1931, when the navigable channel of the Charles River was shifted 300 feet to the north of its former route to allow the platforms at North Station to be extended northwards. These bridges were designed by Keller & Harrington of Chicago, Illinois, and built by the Phoenix Bridge Company of Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. Each bridge uses a 629-short-ton (571 t) over-head concrete counterweight. Originally, there were four bridges, but only two of them remain. The bridges were formerly connected to North Station by a wooden trestle; the trestle burned in January 1984, forcing all trains to terminate at a temporary station north of the river for 15 months. The two aging two-track draw spans are planned to be replaced by three new two-track spans, which will be more reliable and have higher capacity. The unfinished sixth platform at North Station will be completed to serve long out-of-service tracks 11 and 12, the Fitchburg mainline will be slightly relocated to provide more layover space near the maintenance facility, and FX interlocking will be reconfigured. The signals contract associated with the new drawbridges was awarded in May 2019. As of July 2025, signal work is expected to be completed in 2026. Design of the new vertical lift bridges began in 2019 and was 75% complete by May 2023. In September 2024, the MBTA was awarded a $472 million federal grant for the bridge replacement. The draft environmental assessment was released in December 2024, with bridge construction expected to last from 2026 to 2034. The MBTA began procurement of a design-build contractor in early 2025, with award of the approximately-$1-billion contract expected by December 2025. A separate $61 million contract for program and construction management was awarded in July 2025. The MBTA awarded a $1.06-billion design-build contract to Skanska Civil Northeast/Koch JV in May 2026.

Cutler Park (Massachusetts)

Der Cutler Park ist ein etwa 700 Acres (3 km²) großer State Park im Norfolk County im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten. Der Park liegt zwischen der Massachusetts Route 128 und dem Charles River. Er ist Teil des Metropolitan Park System of Greater Boston und wird vom Department of Conservation and Recreation verwaltet. Beschreibung Im Park gibt es viele Möglichkeiten, sich aktiv zu betätigen. Dazu zählen Wandern, Vogelbeobachtung, Mountainbike fahren und Skilanglauf. Das Schutzgebiet beinhaltet das größte noch bestehende Trinkwasser-Marschland am mittleren Charles River, in dem es einen schmalen Holzweg zu einer Insel gibt. Entlang der Westseite des Cutler Pond ist noch die Stelle zu sehen, an der im 19. Jahrhundert die Erde entfernt wurde, um sie als Füllmaterial für die Back Bay zu verwenden. Für den Transport wurde eigens eine Gleisstrecke angelegt, deren Schienenstränge noch teilweise am Nordeingang des Parks an der Kendrick Street zu sehen sind. Weblinks Offizielle Website
Cutler Park

Cutler Park Reservation is a state-owned nature preserve and public recreation area that lies between Route 128/I-95 and the Charles River in Needham, Massachusetts. The state park's 772 acres (312 ha) contain the largest remaining freshwater marsh on the middle Charles River. Parts of its major trail run directly through the marsh via boardwalks; over 100 species of birds have been sighted here. The park is part of a plan by the Town of Needham to connect 18 public areas by 35 proposed trails. It is managed by the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation. History Along the west side of Kendrick Pond remains the imprint where soil was removed in the 19th century to fill the area now known as the Back Bay in Boston. An extension of the railroad was added so the soil could be transported into Boston. Some of the old tracks are visible near the north entrance of the park on Kendrick Street. The large marsh in the park is not natural, but rather was created by flooding from the Silk Mill Dam in Newton Upper Falls in the 1890s. These wet areas were used in the past for wells and irrigation, and remains of filter ponds, ditches, and water systems are still present. In 1962 the park was named for State Senator Leslie B. Cutler. Geography The bulk of Cutler Park falls within the borders of Needham, Massachusetts. The southern end is part of Dedham; and the park also holds the strip of land on the Newton/Boston side of the Charles River running from Nahanton Street, Newton, south to the City of Boston's Millennium Park (part of West Roxbury). Much of the park's area is marsh or wetland, while forest makes up the rest and bears most of the trails. In two sections the Blue Heron Trail bears foot or bicycle traffic through the marsh on wooden boardwalks. At the park's north end, a trail goes around Kendrick Pond (also called Cutler Pond). A railroad line, used primarily by the MBTA Commuter Rail, runs roughly east–west on a raised right-of-way through the southern half of the park. A trail runs adjacent to the right-of-way the entire width of the park, and a tunnel under the railroad provides access across it. Activities and amenities The park contains trails suitable for walking, hiking, bird watching, mountain biking, and cross-country skiing. Challenging singletracks for mountain bikers are found between the pond and Route 128. Fishing and canoeing are also options. As the park is very close to Interstate 95, there is pervasive traffic noise in much of the park.
