Stix Baer & Fuller

Stix, Baer en Fuller (ook wel "Stix" of SBF of de Grand-Leader genoemd) was een warenhuisketen in St. Louis, Missouri. De keten was actief van 1892 tot 1984. Geschiedenis De oorspronkelijk winkel, de Grand-Leader genoemd, bevond zich in het centrum van St. Louis, aan de noordkant van Washington Avenue tussen Sixth Street en Seventh Street en was in 1920 uitgegroeid tot het hele stadsblok. De winkel werd in 1892 opgericht door Charles Stix, de broers Julius Baer en Sigmond Baer en Aaron Fuller. Het was een naamloze vennootschap, waarvan de aandelen werden verhandeld op de New York Stock Exchange. Het bedrijf was lange tijd lid van de American Merchandising Companies (AMC), een handelsvereniging van belangrijke, lokaal beheerde warenhuizen in de Verenigde Staten. Gedurende vele jaren stond het bedrijf bekend als de toonaangevende high-end modewinkel in de regio St. Louis, hoewel een kleinere concurrent, Scruggs, Vandervoort and Barney, ook om die positie streed. In 1937 werd Arthur B. Baer (1895-1970), de enige zoon van Julius Baer (1861-1940), president. Op een gegeven moment waren de grootste aandeelhouders van Stix Arthur B. Baer, Sidney Baer en Leo C. Fuller, die samen ook het bestuur van de onderneming vormden. Ze huurden echter een reeks meer ervaren retailers in om het bedrijf als algemeen directeur te leiden. Degenen met de langste ambtstermijn waren Morris Jelenko en later, Frank P. Wolff. De laatste algemeen directeur en president was J. Arthur Baer, zoon van Arthur B. Baer. In 1966 werd het bedrijf gekocht door Associated Dry Goods (ADG), waarna er expansie volgde naar Kansas City. Niet in staat om te concurreren met warenhuisketen Famous-Barr, werden de 13 warenhuizen in 1984 door ADG verkocht aan Dillard's. Daarna werden de winkels omgebouwd tot Dillard-filialen. De vlaggenschipwinkel in het centrum van St. Louis, ontworpen door John Mauran en in fasen gebouwd tussen 1906 en 1991, werd kort gesloten en heropend in 1985 als onderdeel van de St. Louis Centre Mall. In september 2001 werd de winkel gesloten omdat het winkelcentrum een mislukking was. Het River Roads-filiaal werd gesloopt, samen met de rest van het winkelcentrum. De winkel op het voormalige Crestwood Plaza werd in de herfst van 2016 gesloopt, waarna de rest van het voormalige winkelcentrum ook gesloopt werd wegens een herontwikkeling.

Stone Church (Independence, Missouri)

The Community of Christ Stone Church (known from 1888 to 2000 as the RLDS Stone Church) is a historic place of worship at 1012 West Lexington Avenue in Independence, Missouri, United States. The limestone building is north across the street from the Church of Christ (Temple Lot) headquarters and diagonally opposite the Community of Christ's Independence Temple. The Church began construction on the site in 1884, and the completed building was dedicated on April 6, 1888. From the early 1900s until the dedication of the nearby Community of Christ Auditorium, the Stone Church was the headquarters building of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (as the Community of Christ was then known ). Administrative offices and General Conference meetings were transferred in 1958 to the Auditorium, and in 1994 to the Independence Temple. The structure is still in use today as a regular congregational meeting location and community-outreach programs.

Stone Hill Winery

Stone Hill Winery is a Missouri winery located in Hermann, Missouri, along the Missouri River, in what is called the Missouri Rhineland of the Hermann AVA. Established by German immigrants in 1847, it is the largest winery in the state. History A small private winery, built on a hill at the southern boundary of Hermann, was established in 1847 under the name of the founder, Michael Poeschel (1809-1893). From 1861 to 1878, when John Scherer was a partner, the name changed to M. Poeschel and Scherer. Building on the present site began in 1861. The original complex included the shipping cellars built that year and a residence-company office building built in 1869. Poeschel and Scherer sold most of the company in 1878 to their managers, William Herzog and George Stark. In 1883, Herzog and Stark took full ownership of the winery, and changed its name to Stone Hill Wine Company. George Stark, who was born in Germany in 1845 and emigrated to the United States in 1867, became sole proprietor in 1893. Under his management the Stone Hill Wine Company became one of the largest in the country. At the turn of the 20th century, Stone Hill Winery was the largest winery west of the Mississippi River in the United States, the second largest winery in the United States, and the third largest winery in the world. It produced 1,250,000 gallons in 1900. Its wine had won numerous awards in international fairs, including Vienna in 1873, Philadelphia in 1876, and St. Louis in 1904. Due to Prohibition, the winery was closed in 1920, along with virtually all others in the nation. During this time, the owners earned money by using its wine cellars to grow mushrooms for sale until 1965. In 1965 local farmers Jim and Betty Held made Stone Hill Winery the first in Missouri to be re-established. They moved into the remnants of the original winery and began the long restoration of the dis-repaired old-world buildings and vaulted underground cellars. The Old Stone Hill Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969. The district encompasses 11 contributing buildings associated with the Stone Hill Winery. They include the combined residence and office for company manager, processing plant, warehouse, barn and stone-lined aging cellars.

SubTropolis

СабТрополіс (англ. SubTropolis)- бізнес-комплекс в м. Канзас-Сіті (штат Міссурі, США). Бізнес-комплекс було розроблено та втілено в життя «Середньозахідною будівельною компанією Ханта» (Hunt Midwest Real Estate Development, Inc.). Хант Ламар відомий як колишній власник Канзас-Сіті Чіфс (професійна команда з американського футболу, член Національної футбольної ліги США). Назва «Найбільший у світі підземний бізнес-комплекс» стала торговою маркою. SubTropolic розташовується у вапняковій шахті Бесені Фолс, на глибині 49 м (160 футів). По суті це штучна печера площею 5 109 667 квадратних метрів (55 000 000 квадратних футів), що знаходиться в прямовисних горних схилах над р. Місурі. Печера утворилася внаслідок роботи шахти за камерно-стовповою системою розробки вапняку. Видобуток постійно продовжується, тож територія сховища стало зростає приблизно на 13 тис. квадратних метрів на рік. Під землею прокладена сітка тунелів майже 5 метрів (16 футів) заввишки. Тунелі розділяються колонами з вапняку (ширина — 7,6 м (25 футів)). Комплекс має майже 11 км (7 миль) освітлених автомобільних доріг та кілька миль залізничного шляху. У шахті природним шляхом цілий рік тримається постійна температура 18-21 °C та постійна низька вологість. З економічної точки зору SubTropolic є зоною зовнішньої торгівлі, де можуть утримуватись імпортні товари. Особливі митні пільги дозволяють власникам таких товарів зекономити чималі кошти. Бізнес-комплекс розташований зовсім недалеко від центра міста і лише в 20 хвилинах їзди від міжнародного аеропорту. Все це надає багато можливостей для використання приміщень як складських площ для зберігання товарів, продуктів харчування, а також продуктів та речей, що потребують постійної температури та вологості. Здаються в оренду морозильні камери. Також тут розташовуються дата-центри (SubTropolis Technology Center) та офіси. Клієнтами Sub Tropolic є такі організації, як Управління з охорони навколишнього середовища та Поштова служба США. Остання, зокрема, використовує займані приміщення для роботи з колекційними марками. Здавати приміщення в оренду Хант розпочав ще у 1960-ті роки, а в 1970-х попит на такі приміщення значно підвищився: вдарила енергетична криза, а приміщення під землею потребують в набагато менше енергії (природна постійна температура та сухість). З північного краю бізнес-комплексу Хант створив парк розваг «Світи задоволення» та аквапарк «Океани задоволення». Завдяки тому, що камерно-стовпова система розробки вапняку широко використовується по всьому Середньому Заходу США, шахтарі вже створили мільйони квадратних метрів потенційно корисних площ під землею. Багато компаній шукають та знаходять шляхи до їх використання: від вирощування грибів до зберігання сирої нафти.

The Kansas City women's basketball team also currently plays their home games at Swinney Recreation Center. Swinney Recreation Center was originally built in 1941 as Swinney Gymnasium by what was then the University of Kansas City. It was named in honor of Edward F. Swinney, chairman of First National Bank of Kansas City (now part of Bank of America), who had donated $250,000 toward the project. Long known as "Old Swinney," it was renamed Swinney Recreation Center after a $14.5 million addition in 1988. The facility now has five basketball/volleyball courts, four racquetball courts, a 25-yard indoor/outdoor pool, and exercise rooms. The men's team played at Swinney during its days as an NAIA member, and moved to Municipal Auditorium when it joined the NCAA. However, in 2010, UMKC announced that the men's basketball team would make Swinney its primary home court. They moved back to Municipal just two years later. They returned to the Swinney Recreation Center at the beginning of 2019. See also List of NCAA Division I basketball arenas References External links Official website
Switzler Hall

Switzler Hall is an academic hall on the campus of the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri. The building was completed in 1872, and it is located on the west side of the David R. Francis Quadrangle. Switzler Hall is the oldest academic building and second oldest structure on campus after the Chancellor's Residence. The building was named after Colonel William Franklin Switzler, editor and publisher of the Missouri Statesman and supporter of the University. Today the building houses the Department of Communication, Women's and Gender Studies, and the Special Degrees Program. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Bell Tower One component of Switzler Hall is the bell tower. The bell was given to the University by Major James S. Rollins and is inscribed with the words "Nunc occasion est et tempus," which translated is, "Now is the occasion and the time." While the bell originally rang for classes until 1936, it now only rings for Tap Day, the Mizzou 39 ceremony, and to honor the passing of members of the MU family. During the time the bell was used to signal the start of classes, it was a longstanding prank among many student to steal the bell's clapper, so that the signal for classes to start would not be sounded. Silo Switzler Hall is also home to a mysterious three-story "silo" through the center of the structure. The cylindrical, 8-foot-diameter, brick, silo rises from the basement to the roof of the building. In the middle of the silo, a solid wooden structure, which resembles some sort of dumbwaiter device or ladder, also rises to the attic. The purpose of the silo is still unknown; however, some of the proposed original uses include use as a means of roof access, as part of a heating and cooling system, as a drop tower for physics students, or as an elaborate means of venting chemical work on the lower floors.

Swope Memorial Golf Course

Swope Memorial Golf Course is the first public golf course built in Kansas City, it was originally constructed in 1915. It re-opened in 1934 with a complete re-design by World Golf Hall of Fame golf course architect A. W. Tillinghast. It hosted the 1949 Kansas City Open Invitational, a PGA Tour event at the time and is the only golf course in the Kansas City area to have done so. After years of neglect, in the early 1990's the course was renovated with many of the Tillinghast features removed in an attempt to "modernize" the course. In 2005 it hosted the USGA Women's Amateur Public Links Championship. It is currently closed and going through a sympathetic renovation. The Kansas City Parks Department has hired Todd Clark of CE Golf Design to lead this effort. He is working closely with Ron Whitten, emeritus writer of Architecture for Golf Digest and a respected expert on historic golf architects. The renovation will include greens, tee boxes, bunkers, irrigation, cart paths, tree pruning and removal and a new irrigation pond. The course is planning to re-open in Spring of 2026. The course construction is contracted to Mid-America Golf and Landscape, Inc. The renovation is intended to restore the course to a design that closely reflects Tillinghast's original plans, based on historic photographs, drawings, and other historical sources. Following the renovation, it is expected to remain the only public Tillinghast-designed golf course in the United States that retains all of its original holes and routing. Other public Tillinghast courses have lost original holes because of development and highway construction. Tillinghast served as a consultant on the Bethpage Park golf courses. In 1953 Swope hosted the United Golf Association (UGA) National Championship, in which Ann Gregory and Charlie Sifford won the women's and men's divisions, respectively.

Talking Rocks Cavern

Talking Rocks Cavern (originally called Fairy Cave) is a cavern system located in Stone County, just west of Reeds Spring, in Branson West, in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is privately owned by Herschend, and operated by Adventure Creations Inc., as a public entertainment/educational attraction. Guided cave tours are offered at regular intervals throughout each day. Tours take approximately one hour and lead to the floor of the cave, by way of 150 steps going down and 115 steps coming up. There are numerous formations to be viewed up close, including "cave bacon", "curtain", stalagmites, and stalactites. The vertical nature of the cave allows the growth of a formation called "The Cathedral", which is a flowstone and drapery mineral deposit that is approximately 90' tall, and 50' in diameter. The temperature in the cave remains an average 63 degrees throughout the year. The entrance to the cave is accessed through an entrance inside the Rock and Gift Shop. As there is no outside access, there are no bats living in this cave. There are other living creatures that typically are found in caves, including cave salamanders. Talking Rocks Cavern is considered a living cave, because with the presence of water, the formations continue to grow. During extremely rainy weather, the cave may be wetter than usual. It rarely floods or interrupts tours. There are many activities offered at this property, some of them are free. There is an indoor and an outdoor SpeleoBox crawl maze that simulates crawling through a cave. There is a modern children's play area, featuring a large tube slide. There is an oversized outdoor Checkerboard. A 9-hole miniature golf course is available and gemstone sluicing is popular, as well as two nature trails that lead to a 100' lookout tower that offers a panoramic view of the Ozark countryside. The Rock and Gift Shop offers a wide variety of gemstones, fossils, and gift items. School and Church groups are offered a group rate, and can choose to participate in a SpeleoLab - a cave science program. Talking Rocks Cavern is open year-round - closing only on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. When inclement weather creates hazardous roads in the area, the cave may close for safety purposes.

The Landing (Kansas City)

The Landing is a small mall in Kansas City, Missouri. It was built in 1960, on 63rd Street and Troost Avenue (it also has frontage on East Meyer Boulevard) and it was originally an open-air shopping center. The architect of the Landing Mall was Edward Tanner, who was also the architect of the old Kansas City Missouri School District Building on 12th and McGee Street in Downtown. The J.C. Nichols company commissioned local artist Jac T Bowen to make a medley of 30 almost life-sized animal sculptures that children could climb on for the mall. During a remodel in 1970, the sculptures were to be transferred to the Kansas City Zoo, but the sculptures never arrived. It was enclosed in 1970, and was renamed The New Landing Mall.

It is managed by Block & Company, which lists its current capacity at 131,497 square feet, with the surrounding traffic at 54,000 cars a day. One of the mall's original tenants was Macy's, which became Dillard's in 1988. The centers original anchor was a branch of the original R.H. Macy company. It was last open as Gold's Department Store and currently operates with a barber college on the second floor. The mall still stands today and is a marker of the history present in the city.

The Syndicate (building)

The Syndicate, built in 1907, is a building that has stood as a historic landmark in downtown St. Louis, Missouri. The detailed Terracotta ornamentation still stands out as a significant glimpse into the style of an earlier time. The building declined in the 1950s and 1960s and became vacant in 1967 after the Scruggs Vandervoort & Barney department store closed in 1967. After a city request for renovation, and the demolition of its long standing neighbor, the Century Building, The Syndicate was reconstructed between 2006 and 2008 to hold luxury condos in a mixed use project. It holds 94 condominiums, 84 apartments, street level retail, and parking on the basement and first two floors. The Syndicate Trust Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
