Duluth Harbor North Pier Light

The Duluth Harbor North Pier Light is a lighthouse on the north breakwater of the Duluth Ship Canal in Duluth, Minnesota, United States. History An 1896 project to improve harbor facilities resulted in the reconstruction of the sides of the Duluth Ship Canal, bracketing it in the two concrete piers which define its channel to the present. While the south pier had been equipped with a light from 1874, the north pier was unlit, and given the difficult approach (highlighted by the notorious wreck of the SS Mataafa in 1905), calls for aids were soon made. A 1908 Lighthouse Board report, in recommending the construction of a light on the north pier, noted that a private aid was already being placed on the pier. Appropriation was made in 1909, and a tower was erected and lit the following year. The design was based on that of the Peche Island Rear Range Light, featuring a short round tower built of steel plates. A fifth-order Fresnel lens from France was installed and lit with a 210-candlepower electric lamp powered from the city power grid. All the lights on the canal were maintained by the same keepers; the head keeper lived in a frame house constructed in 1874 with the Duluth South Breakwater Outer Light, while the assistants were given a brick duplex in 1913 after years of having to find boarding accommodations on their own. The North Pier Light was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016 for its local significance in the themes of engineering, maritime history, and transportation. It was nominated for its association with federal efforts to establish nationwide navigational aids, and for being characteristic of early-20th-century pier and breakwater lights built around the Great Lakes. In May 2021, the U.S. General Services Administration announced that the Coast Guard no longer needed the lighthouse and it was eligible to be transferred at no cost to another public agency or non-profit in accordance with the National Historic Lighthouse Preservation Act. In February 2022, the lighthouse was awarded to the Minnesota-based nonprofit Rethos, which is in the process of securing ownership of the lighthouse.

Phare de la jetée nord de Duluth

Le phare de la jetée nord de Duluth (en anglais : Duluth North Pier Light), est un phare du lac Supérieur situé à l'extrémité du brise-lames nord du Duluth Ship Canal (en) à Duluth, dans le comté de St. Louis, Minnesota. Ce phare est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 7 juin 2016 sous le n° 16000340. Historique Un projet d'amélioration des installations portuaires de 1896 a abouti à la reconstruction des côtés du canal maritime de Duluth, le fixant entre les deux quais en béton. Alors que la jetée sud avait été équipée d'une lumière en 1874, la jetée nord était éteinte, et compte tenu de son approche difficile (mise en évidence par l'épave notoire du SS Mataafa (en) en 1905), des appels à l'aide ont été rapidement lancés. Un rapport du Lighthouse Board de 1908, recommandant la construction d'un feu sur la jetée nord, notait qu'une aide privée était déjà placée sur la jetée. L'appropriation en a été faite en 1909, et une tour a été érigée et allumée l'année suivante. La conception était basée sur celle du phare arrière de Peche Island, comportant une courte tour ronde construite en plaques d'acier. Une lentille de Fresnel du cinquième ordre venant de France a été installée et allumée avec une lampe électrique de 210 candelas alimentée par le réseau électrique de la ville. Toutes les lumières sur le canal ont été maintenues par les mêmes gardiens. Le gardien principal vivait dans une maison construite en 1874 avec le phare extérieur du brise-lames sud de Duluth, tandis que les assistants ont reçu un duplex en briques en 1913 après des années à devoir trouver un logement en pension. Le phare a été inscrit au registre national des lieux historiques en 2016 pour son importance locale dans les thèmes de l'ingénierie, de l'histoire maritime et du transport. Il a été nommé pour son association avec les efforts fédéraux pour établir des aides à la navigation à l'échelle nationale, et pour être caractéristique des feux de jetée et de brise-lames du début du 20e siècle construits autour des Grands Lacs Description Le phare est une tour cylindrique en fonte de 11 m de haut, avec une galerie et une lanterne. Le phare est blanc et la lanterne est noire. Son feu isophase émet, à une hauteur focale de 13 m, un éclat rouge de 2 secondes par période de 4 secondes. Sa portée est de 11 milles nautiques (environ 20 km).

Hibbing High School

Hibbing High School is a public school, grades 7–12, in Hibbing, Minnesota, United States. It was built from 1920 to 1922 as the entire city relocated two miles (3 km) south to make way for the expanding Hull–Rust–Mahoning Mine. The lavish Tudor Revival building was constructed at a cost of about $3.9 million (equivalent to $62,678,571 in 2025), becoming known as the "castle in the woods" and—thanks to its polished brass fixtures—the "school with the golden doorknobs". The project was bankrolled by the mining industry, which wanted to make the move more palatable for those being displaced. It also satisfied immigrants' desire for their children's education. Hibbing High School is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Visitors may tour the building on their own during the school year or on guided tours during the summer. Amenities The school features a lavishly decorated 1,800-seat auditorium built from 1922 to 1924. It was patterned after the Capitol Theatre in New York City. The chandeliers were built at a cost of $15,000 each, with cut glass from Belgium. They are now each insured for $250,000. The auditorium also contains a 1900-pipe organ from the Barton Organ Company, which can play any orchestra instrument except for the violin. History Hibbing High School received the Bellamy Award in 1968, an honor given to one school nationwide annually for outstanding academic achievements. The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 for its state-level significance in the themes of architecture, education, industry, and politics/government. It was nominated for its sumptuous Jacobethan architecture and association with the mutual desire by corporations and residents for improved public education as the mining industry mechanized. On November 26, 1996 construction on a new addition to the building caused a fire. Although the fire was extinguished before it reached the original building, a significant amount of smoke damage had occurred. School had to be suspended for over a month while cleaning took place.

John G. and Minnie Gluek House and Carriage House

The Gluek House is a historic Colonial Revival house in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. The house was built by John and Minnie Gluek. John was the son of the founder of the Gluek Brewing Company, a regional brewery in the Minneapolis area. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 9, 1990. Architectural historian Paul Larson, who wrote the National Register nomination, cited it as a fine example of Victorian architecture with its Georgian Revival detail and ornamentation. The two-story carriage house in back is even more distinctive, with quarters for horses as well as storage for the hay that fed them. Larson said the carriage house "has to have the fanciest hay storage doors in the Twin Cities." Many of the details inside the house are still intact, including the original icebox. The house has recently been purchased by new owners, who plan to modernize the house while keeping its historical character.

Malcolm Willey House

The Malcolm Willey House is located at 255 Bedford Street SE in the neighborhood of Prospect Park in Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It was designed by the American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, and built in 1934. Wright named the house "Gardenwall". History Malcolm Willey was an administrator at the University of Minnesota. In June 1932, his wife Nancy Willey sent a letter to Wright asking if he would be able to provide them a "creation of art" for a budget of "about $8,000". The current design is the second design that Wright conceived for the Willeys, since the first design proved too costly for the family. The home ended up a modest 1,200 square feet (110 m2) at a cost of $10,000. The Willeys sold the home in 1963 to a family that later sold it to a Wright aficionado who only sporadically occupied the home; when the current owners purchased the home in 2002 it was in need of major restoration which is now complete. Description The Willey House is primarily built of red brick and cypress. Except for the red linoleum in the kitchen, the rooms on the main floor are floored with mortared brick pavers. A major design feature is the 30-60-90 triangle which shapes the terrace, the skylights, and two clerestory windows in the living room. The house is arranged so that the living room and dining room form a single space: the kitchen was separated from them by plate glass and a group of shelves. This gave a clear view from the kitchen to the living and dining area, allowing Mrs. Willey to watch the rest of the house while in the kitchen. This was an important step away from the historic precedent of compartmentalizing the functions of the house into separate rooms. The house can be considered a bridge between Wright's earlier Prairie School style houses, and his later Usonian style houses, since it incorporates certain elements from both styles. It sits adjacent to a freeway wall blocking it from the sight and sound of nearby Interstate 94; the home originally had a panoramic view of the Mississippi River gorge before the freeway's construction obstructed it in the 1960s. The house hosted the dedication ceremony for Interstate 94 on December 9, 1968. Although privately owned, the Malcolm Willey House is open for pre-booked tours.

Casa Malcolm Willey

La Casa Malcolm Willey se encuentra en la ciudad de Mineápolis, la más poblada del estado de Minnesota (Estados Unidos). Fue diseñado por el arquitecto estadounidense Frank Lloyd Wright y construido en 1934. Wright llamó a la casa "Gardenwall".​ Historia y arquitectura Malcolm Willey era administrador de la Universidad de Minnesota. En junio de 1932, su esposa, Nancy Willey, envió una carta a Wright preguntándole si podría proporcionarles una "creación de arte" por un presupuesto de "alrededor de 8000 dólares".​ El diseño actual es el segundo diseño que Wright concibió para los Willey, ya que el primero resultó demasiado costoso. La casa tiene 111 m² y costó 10 000 dólares.​ Los Willey la vendieron en 1963 a una familia que luego la vendió a un aficionado de Wright que solo ocupaba la casa esporádicamente. Cuando los propietarios actuales la compraron en 2002, esta necesitaba una restauración importante que ahora está completa.​ La Casa Willey está construida principalmente de ladrillo rojo y ciprés. Salvo el linóleo rojo de la cocina, las estancias de la planta noble están soladas con adoquín de ladrillo mortero. Una característica importante del diseño es el triángulo 30-60-90 que da forma a la terraza, los tragaluces y dos ventanas del triforio en la sala de estar.​ La casa se dispuso de manera que la sala y el comedor formaran un solo espacio: la cocina se separó de ellos mediante placas de vidrio y un conjunto de estanterías. Esto le dio una vista clara desde la cocina a la sala de estar y el comedor, lo que le permitió a la señora Willey para vigilar el resto de la casa mientras está en la cocina. Este fue un paso importante para alejarse del precedente histórico de compartimentar las funciones de la casa en habitaciones separadas. La casa puede considerarse un puente entre las casas de estilo Prairie School anteriores de Wright y sus casas posteriores de estilo Usonian, ya que incorpora ciertos elementos de ambos estilos.​ Ubicada en 255 Bedford Street sureste en el vecindario de Prospect Park de Minéapolis, la casa sigue siendo privada y solo es parcialmente visible desde la vía pública. Se encuentra junto a un muro de la autopista que lo bloquea de la vista y el sonido de la cercana Interestatal 94; la casa originalmente tenía una vista panorámica del desfiladero del río Misisipi antes de que la construcción de la autopista la obstruyera en los años 1960.​ La casa fue la sede de la ceremonia de inauguración de la Interestatal 94 el 9 de diciembre de 1968.​ Galería Véase también Anexo:Obras de Frank Lloyd Wright Referencias Enlaces externos Sitio oficial
