Coolidge Reservation

Coolidge Reservation (ehem. Millet’s Neck) ist ein 64 Acres (25,9 ha) großes Naturschutzgebiet bei der Stadt Manchester-by-the-Sea im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten und wird von der Organisation The Trustees of Reservations verwaltet. Geschichte Das ursprünglich als Millet’s Neck bekannte Gebiet wurde 1871 umbenannt, nachdem es von Thomas Jefferson Coolidge für 12.000 US-Dollar (heute ca. 320.000 Dollar) erworben worden war. 1873 errichtete er das erste Landhaus auf dem Grundstück, das er als Sommerresidenz nutzte. 1902 entwarf Charles McKim das zweite Gebäude in Georgianischer Architektur, das 1904 fertiggestellt werden konnte. Obwohl es hauptsächlich aus Ziegelsteinen bestand, wurde es als „Marmorpalast“ bekannt, weil sein Fundament sowie seine vielen Verzierungen aus diesem Material bestanden. Zu den Besuchern dieses Hauses zählten unter anderem der damalige Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten Woodrow Wilson (1918) und der norwegische Kronprinz Olav (1938). Thomas Jefferson Coolidge III. ließ das Gebäude in den 1950er Jahren abreißen und ersetzte es nicht durch einen weiteren Neubau, so dass sich heute an dieser Stelle nur eine offene Fläche befindet. Die ersten Teilstücke des heutigen Schutzgebiets schenkte die Familie Coolidge den Trustees of Reservations in den Jahren 1990 und 1991, die darauf basierend das Schutzgebiet 1992 auswiesen. Im gleichen Jahr spendete die Essex County Greenbelt Association den Bungalow Hill als weiteren Bestandteil des Schutzgebiets. 1999 folgte das bislang letzte Teilstück. Schutzgebiet Das Schutzgebiet befindet sich auf einer als Coolidge Point bekannten Halbinsel und bietet mit felsigen Aufschlüssen, Waldgebieten, Feuchtgebieten und einem Sandstrand auf einer Fläche von lediglich 26 Hektar eine große landschaftliche Vielfalt, die Heimat für eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Tiere und Pflanzen ist. Der Bungalow Hill bildet den höchsten Punkt des Schutzgebiets. In den Wäldern dominieren – wie praktisch überall in Neuengland – Eichen und Kiefern, Wildblumen und Farne und bieten Schutz für unterschiedliche Vögel sowie Fischermarder, Füchse und Kojoten. Ein Wanderweg führt am Clarke Pond entlang. Diese ehemalige Salzwiese wurde vor etwa einhundert Jahren bei Flut von den Gezeiten abgetrennt und bildet heute einen Trinkwasser-Teich. Bei hoher Flut sowie durch Stürme gelangt hin und wieder Salzwasser in den Teich und spült in diesem Zuge Krabben und kleine Fische aus dem Meer mit. Die Wasserstelle bildet den Lebensraum für Enten, Gänse, Reiher und eine Art der Regenpfeiferartigen, die in Nordamerika als Shorebird bekannt ist. Um den Teich herum befinden sich mehrere Hektar große Feuchtgebiete, in denen unter anderem Rohrkolben, Sauergrasgewächse und Schlickgräser sowie Zahnlilien, Arisaema und Hahnenfuß gedeihen. Insgesamt stehen den Besuchern 1 mi (1,6 km) Wanderwege zur Verfügung. Siehe auch Liste der Schutzgebiete der Trustees of Reservations Weblinks Coolidge Reservation bei TripAdvisor Einzelnachweise
Coolidge Reservation

Coolidge Reservation is a nature reserve located in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts. The property is owned by The Trustees of Reservations. History The reservation is located on Coolidge Point, a peninsula once owned by—and named for—the Coolidge family. The reservation property includes the former site of the Coolidge's "Marble Palace", a Georgian-style mansion designed in 1902 by Charles McKim for T. Jefferson Coolidge, who was a great-grandson of Thomas Jefferson. Although the mansion was demolished in 1958, the home's grounds are preserved as the "Ocean Lawn". 42 acres of land was donated to The Trustees by the Coolidge family in 1990 and 1991. The reservation was established in 1992. References External links The Trustees of Reservations: Coolidge Reservation
Cooper–Frost–Austin House

The Cooper–Frost–Austin House is a historic Colonial American house, built in 1681. It is located at 21 Linnaean Street, Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is the oldest extant home in Cambridge and is owned and operated as a non-profit museum by Historic New England. The house is rarely open for public tours, but private tours can be arranged during the summer months. The house was built by Samuel Cooper on land that his father, Deacon John Cooper, had owned since 1657, and was first documented in 1689 in The Register Book of the Lands and Houses in the "New Towne" (as Cambridge was then named). Its original structure was a single room and chimney bay in width, two and one half stories in height with an integral lean-to, containing a "low room," "little room," "kitchin," "Chamber," "kitchin Chamber," "Garret," and "Cellar," all of which still exist, as do the original chimney and a facade gable. The house was extended ca. 1720 by Cooper's son, and then again between 1807 and 1816 by Martha Frost Austin and Thomas Austin who added an enclosed porch and Federal style stairway and trim. The house was acquired by Historic New England in 1912. In 2002 the Oxford Dendrochronology Laboratory analyzed wooden beams from the original structure and ascertained that donor trees were felled at the following times: winter 1675–1676, winter 1680–1681, and spring 1681. The oldest timber may have been stockpiled before construction.

Copp's Hill Terrace

Copp's Hill Terrace is a historic terrace and park between Commercial and Charter Streets west of Jackson Avenue on Copp's Hill in the North End of Boston, Massachusetts near Copp's Hill Burying Ground. Designed and built in the 1890s, it is the only public park designed for the city by the noted landscape architect Charles Eliot, and one of the few larger public spaces in the densely-built North End. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. Description and history Copp's Hill is the highest point in Boston's North End and the third-highest point in the city, after Beacon Hill and Roxbury's Fort Hill. Copp's Hill Terrace is set on the north side of the hill, which slopes steeply to the waterfront of Boston's inner harbor. The Terrace is separated from the waterfront area by Commercial Street and Langone Park, the latter originating in the same park planning process that produced the Terrace. The Terrace consists of a landscaped arrangement of granite steps, knee-walls and banisters with cast-iron parapets ascending to a large plaza overlooking Commercial Street and the mouth of the Mystic River. The Copp's Hill Burying Ground lies immediately south of the Terrace. A small community of free African Americans lived on the steep slope of Copp's Hill from the 17th to the 19th century. Members of this community were buried in the Copp's Hill Burying Ground. By the late 19th century, much of the land in the area was owned by the Boston Gas Light Company, and the hillside was crowded with tenement houses. Funding to develop this area as a city park was secured in the early 1890s by John "Honey Fitz" Fitzgerald, then a city counselor and later its mayor. The city took land down to the waterfront by eminent domain in 1893. The area, including what was first called North End Park and is now Langone Park, was intended by designer Charles Eliot to provide both passive and active recreation opportunities, giving the local residents a respite from the otherwise crowded conditions. Although his early designs were more informal, city leaders prevailed for a more formal design, which was eventually implemented. The final construction included grassy areas and trees, and included conduits for the provision of electric lighting. From the terrace, a large crowd observed the destruction wrought by Boston's Great Molasses Flood of 1919.

Corcoran School

The Corcoran School is an historic school building at 40 Walnut Street in Clinton, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story brick Colonial Revival building was built in 1900 to a design by Boston architect Charles J. Bateman. The rectangular building rises above a raised foundation to a truncated hip roof with a variety of gabled dormers and two cupolas. The entry is centered on a seven-bay facade, beneath a slightly projecting pavilion that rises a full three stories. The entry is recessed under a large round arch, above which is a portico supported by Ionic columns. On the second level of the pavilion are three long, narrow, round-arch windows with granite keystones above, and on the third level are two rectangular sash windows topped by blind arches. On the interior, the building has a basic cruciform plan, with classrooms at the corners, and central corridors running north–south and east–west. On the second floor the east corridor ends in a small room that initially served as a library, above the main entrance. The stairwells on both floors were flanked by narrow rooms, which were used as wardrobes. The third floor contained a large assembly hall, with a stage on the west end. The school was built in a site that has been used for schools since 1846, the most recent of which, the 1854 high school, was demolished because settling and cracking had rendered it unsafe. The new school had eight classrooms, and was the largest of Clinton's primary schools. The school was dedicated in honor of John Corcoran (1853-1904), a school committee chairman, in 1918. The town used the building as an elementary school until 1980. It has since been sold and converted to residential use. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.

Cormier Woods

Cormier Woods ist ein 175 Acres (0,7 km²) großes Naturschutzgebiet bei der Stadt Uxbridge im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten und wird von der Organisation The Trustees of Reservations verwaltet. Schutzgebiet Die Historie des rustikalen Bauernhofs kann bis in die 1700er Jahre zurückverfolgt werden. Heute repräsentiert das Gebiet, auf dem sich das Gehöft befindet, drei Jahrhunderte der Landwirtschaft. Während in der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts der Schwerpunkt auf der Landwirtschaft lag, um den Nachkommen der ersten Siedler eine Lebensgrundlage zu geben, begann nur 50 Jahre später eine umfassende Transformation in das erste Industriezentrum der Vereinigten Staaten, das heute als Ursprung der US-amerikanischen industriellen Revolution unter der Bezeichnung Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor geschützt ist und sich von Worcester bis Providence erstreckt. Heute stehen den Besuchern 3 mi (4,8 km) Wanderwege zur Verfügung, die über das Grundstück des Bauernhofs sowie durch die angrenzenden Wälder und Feuchtgebiete führen. Wie fast überall in Neuengland dominieren auch hier Eichen, Birken und Ahorne; an der Nordwestgrenze des nach James Cormier benannten Schutzgebiets befindet sich außerdem ein Bereich mit 80 ft (24,4 m) bis 100 ft (30,5 m) hohen Weymouth-Kiefern. Das Gelände bietet einen Lebensraum für Salamander, Waldfrösche, Hüttensänger, Laubsänger und Drosseln.

Cove Burying Ground

Der Cove Burying Ground ist ein historischer Friedhof in Eastham im Bundesstaat Massachusetts der Vereinigten Staaten. Er wurde von 1646 bis 1770 für Beerdigungen genutzt und 1999 in das National Register of Historic Places eingetragen. Allgemeine Beschreibung Der Friedhof liegt im Südosten Easthams an der Massachusetts Route 6 und wurde nach der Bucht (englisch cove) benannt, an die er angrenzt. Das Grundstück besitzt einen rechteckigen Grundriss mit einer Gesamtfläche von rund 1 Acres (0,4 ha) und wird auf der Nord-, Süd- und Westseite von mit Eisenstäben verbundenen Granitpfeilern sowie im Osten durch unregelmäßig gepflanzte Bäume begrenzt. Der Haupteingang für Fußgänger befindet sich auf der nach Westen ausgerichteten Straßenseite. Der Cove Burying Ground ist eine der wenigen aus der Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts erhaltenen Strukturen der Gründungszeit von Eastham. Er wurde 1646 unmittelbar neben dem ersten Rathaus der Stadt errichtet und bis 1770 genutzt, wenngleich 1720 mit dem Bau des Bridge Road Cemetery eine gleitende Übergangsphase zum neuen Friedhof einsetzte. Auf dem Cove Burying Ground sind viele der ersten Siedler von Eastham begraben. Der Friedhof umfasst insgesamt 50 bekannte Gräber, von denen 37 noch über ihren originalen Grabstein verfügen. Die meisten wurden aus Schiefer hergestellt, es gibt aber auch zwei Grabsteine aus Sandstein sowie einen aus Phyllit. In ihrer Gesamtheit zeigen sie die Grabsteinkunst der Kolonialzeit.

Cove Burying Ground

The Cove Burying Ground is an historic cemetery located just south of MA 6 and Corliss Way in Eastham, Massachusetts, US. It is Eastham's oldest cemetery, dating to c. 1646. It was laid out not long after the town's first meeting house was built nearby. Although there are no graves marked with 17th-century markers, it is virtually certain that some of Eastham's early settlers are buried here. It was the town's only burying ground until the establishment in 1720 of the Bridge Road Cemetery. The cemetery remained in active use until about 1770. Families placed memorial markers in there in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Three of the Mayflower's 1620 original passengers have marked headstones here. They are: Giles Hopkins (1607–1690) Lt. Joseph Rogers (1608–1678) Constance Hopkins (1605–1677) The cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.

Cranch School

The Cranch School is a historic school building at 250 Whitwell Street in Quincy, Massachusetts. Built in 1900 to a design by local architect Arthur Wright, it is a high-quality local example of Renaissance Revival and Queen Anne architecture. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. It was converted to a condominium building in the 1980s. Description and history The former Cranch School occupies a roughly triangular lot in a residential area of central Quincy, bounded on the south by Whitwell Street, the north by Glendale Road, and the west by Maywood Avenue. It is a two-story brick building, rectangular in layout with a projecting central pavilion on the main (west-facing) facade. The two main floors are separated by a granite belt course, and there is a band of corbelled brickwork at the eave below the slate hip roof. The projecting section, two stories with sash windows, is flanked by single-story shed-roofed entrance pavilions, with the entrances recessed under round-arch openings that have a basket-weave brick pattern in the arched section. The side elevations have four sash windows at each level, and the rear has 18 bays, roughly grouped in four and five sets of windows. The building was designed by Arthur Wright, and built in 1900, a period of significant growth in the city. It was named for Richard Cranch (1726-1811), a prominent local politician who once owned the land on which the school is located. The building was converted to residential use in the 1980s.
