Fleischmann Planetarium & Science Center

The Fleischmann Atmospherium Planetarium was built in 1963 on the University of Nevada, Reno campus. It was the first planetarium in the United States to feature a 360-degree projector capable of providing horizon-to-horizon images and through time-lapse photography showing an entire day's weather in a few minutes. Currently it offers public star shows. The planetarium's uniquely shaped building, a hyperbolic paraboloid, was designed by famed Reno architect Raymond M. Hellmann and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. References External links Official website A Guide to the Fleischmann Planetarium and Science Center Records, AC 0454.

Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs

Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs is a 2,040-acre (830 ha) park in Las Vegas, Nevada. The park is centered on Tule Springs, a series of small natural spring-fed lakes that form an oasis in this part of the Mojave Desert. One of the larger urban retreats in the Las Vegas Valley, Tule Springs was once considered to be far out of town but is now encroached by development. The park includes the Tule Springs Ranch, Tule Springs Archaeological Site, Tule Springs Wash and four ponds available for fishing. History Tule Springs was first designated as a park when it was acquired by the city of Las Vegas in 1964. It was renamed Floyd Lamb State Park in 1977 when the state assumed control. The park was named after Nevada state senator Floyd Lamb, who was later convicted of taking a $23,000 bribe from an undercover FBI agent in 1983. The city took control of the park for a second time when the legislature and state in 2005 agreed to release control and ownership of Floyd Lamb State Park to the City of Las Vegas. The park was transferred to the city on July 2, 2007, and renamed to Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs. In addition to the park, the city received control of 1,300 acres (5 km2) of Bureau of Land Management land. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981 and later on placed on the Las Vegas Register of Historic Places in 2008. Ponds There are four public ponds at the park that are stocked for fishing. Tule Springs Lake is the largest of these lakes, followed by Mulberry Lake, Cottonwood Lake, and Desert Willow Lake. In addition to abundant fishing, the lake area is home to a diverse population of ducks, herons, and peacocks. References External links City of Las Vegas parks webpage
Fort Churchill (Nevada)

Fort Churchill ist ein ehemaliges Fort aus den 1860er-Jahren, von dem nur noch Ruinen erhalten sind. Benannt ist es nach General Sylvester Churchill (1783–1862). Es liegt im Lyon County des US‑Bundesstaats Nevada gut 10 km südlich von Silver Springs und ist im National Register of Historic Places (deutsch „Nationales Verzeichnis historischer Stätten“) aufgeführt. Es ist umgeben vom Fort Churchill State Historic Park, der errichtet wurde, um die Überreste des Forts zu bewahren und Besuchern zugänglich zu machen. Zweimal jährlich dient die historische Stätte als Veranstaltungsort für Reenactments (Nachstellungen) von Szenen aus dem Amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg und zieht dann besonders viele Besucher an. Geschichte Fort Churchill spielte in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts eine wichtige Rolle bei der Besiedlung Nevadas und des amerikanischen Westens. Es wurde 1860 erbaut, um frühen Siedlern und westwärts ziehenden Auswanderern Schutz zu bieten sowie die hier verlaufende Pony-Express-Route und die etwas später errichtete Telegrafenleitung zu bewachen. Nahe dem Fort und Teil des Parks ist die Buckland Station erhalten (Bild), eine frühere Relais­station des Pony Express. Heute werden die Ruinen des Forts in ihrem Zustand bewahrt und Besucher können sie im Rahmen des Historischen Parks auf ausgewiesenen Wegen erkunden. Weblinks Website Ronald James: Fort Churchill.

Historyczny park stanowy Fort Churchill

Historyczny park stanowy Fort Churchill (ang. Fort Churchill State Historic Park) – park stanowy leżący na terenie hrabstwa Lyon w stanie Nevada, położony 8 mil (ok. 12,8 km) na południe od Silver Springs. Powstał w celu ochrony pozostałości Fortu Churchill. Dwa razy w roku miłośnicy wojny secesyjnej organizują tam obozy. Historia W 1859 r. osiedlił się w tamtejszej dolinie i założył ranczo Samuel S. Buckland. Ranczo było ważnym przystankiem dla podróżnych zmierzających do Kalifornii oraz stacją Poczty Konnej, gdzie posilano się i zmieniano konie. Fort nazwano na cześć Sylvestra Churchilla. Powstał dla Armii Stanów Zjednoczonych w 1861 roku, w celu ochrony pierwszych osadników. Został opuszczony szybko, bo w 1869 r. 12 maja 1860 trzech osadników porwało i uwięziło dwie indiańskie dziewczyny. 30 mil na wschód od Carson City. Odmowa wypuszczenia sprowokowała akcję odwetową. Indianie uwolnili zakładniczki, porywaczy zabili i spalili Williamsie Station, w którym przebywali. Stało się to przyczyną wojny o jezioro Pyramid. Wieści o śmierci białych zmobilizowały 105 osadników do pomszczenia ich. Pomimo przewagi liczebnej i umiejętności wojskowych ofensywa zakończyła się klęską. Zginęło 2/3 ochotników. Poproszono więc o pomoc regularną armię z Kalifornii. W czerwcu rozpoczęła się nowa ofensywa. Tym razem Indianie zostali zmuszeni do wycofania się. Kapitan Joseph Stewart, dowódca Carson River Expedition, otrzymał rozkaz założenia stacji dla poczty konnej. Budowa Fortu Churchill rozpoczęła się 20 lipca 1860 i pochłonęła dziesiątki tysięcy ówczesnych dolarów. Na co dzień mieszkało w nim ok. 200 żołnierzy. Fort opuszczono w 1869 r. i sprzedano za 750 $. Piętnaście lat później szczątki pochowanych żołnierzy przeniesiono na cmentarz w Carson City. Zachowane groby należą do Bucklandów, farmerów którzy handlowali z Fortem. Przez następne lata fort służył jako źródło materiałów budowlanych lub schronienie dla podróżnych. 6 października 1932 rząd stanowy wziął pod ochronę 200 akrów wokół Fortu. National Park Service i Ochotniczy Korpus Ochrony Zabytków zaplanowały radykalną restaurację. Przystąpienie USA do II wojny światowej spowodowało porzucenie tych planów. W 1957 r. ogłoszono powstanie parku stanowego. Z części Fortu, Bucland zbudował zachowany do dziś dwupiętrowy dom z pokojami do wynajęcia. Położony ok. pół mili na południe od Fortu przy rzece Carson. Zakupiony przez rząd stanowy w 1994 r. w celu przyłączenia do Parku. Planowane jest wypełnienie antykami i meblami z epoki, by odtworzyć miniaturę dawnych czasów. Współczesność Wizyta wymaga wyobraźni, bo niewiele ścian jest kompletnych. Zachowały się niektóre elementy wyposażenia. Inne atrakcje Hotel, obozowisko kempingowe, kajakarstwo na rzece Carson. Linki zewnętrzne Fort Churchill State Historic Park. parks.nv.gov.

Francis G. Newlands Home

The Francis G. Newlands Home is a historic house at 7 Elm Court in Reno, Nevada, United States. Built in 1890, it is the mansion of former United States Senator Francis G. Newlands (1846–1917), a driving force in passage of the 1902 Newlands Reclamation Act. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1963 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. The house is privately owned and is not open to the public. Description The Francis G. Newlands Home is located in a residential area on the south side of the Truckee River southwest of downtown Reno, at the end of Elm Court, a short spur off the western end of Court Street. This area was a particularly fashionable residential area in the late 19th century. The house stands on about 2 acres (0.81 ha) overlooking the river to the north. It is a two-story wood-frame structure, roughly rectangular in footprint, with a gable roof and the then-fashionable Shingle Style exterior. Queen Anne characteristics of the house include a variety of protrusions, projections and gables. A front wing and an arbor were added sometime before 1908. The house was the first mansion built on a bluff overlooking the Truckee River in Reno, which became known as Newlands Heights. Diverse architectural styles are represented in the area, as exemplified also by the colonial revival Hawkins House next door, another mansion listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Francis G. Newlands had this house built in 1890, not long after he moved to Reno from San Francisco, California. He was then managing the complex affairs of his first wife's family; she was the daughter of William Sharon, who had made his fortune in the Comstock Lode silver business. He began service in the United States House of Representatives in 1893 before winning election to the Senate in 1902. He was instrumental in advancing the Reclamation Act, which put the federal government in the business of providing irrigation infrastructure in place to facilitate agricultural development of the rural west. Later in his career he also played in important role in securing legislation that reorganized the way railroads were managed. After Newlands' death, the house was purchased by divorce lawyer George Thatcher in 1920. His client Barbara Hutton, heiress of the F.W. Woolworth Company, stayed in the house in 1935, as did other Thatcher clients from time to time.

City National Arena

City National Arena is the practice facility and team headquarters of the Vegas Golden Knights of the National Hockey League. City National Arena opened on September 18, 2017, and is located in Summerlin South, Nevada, a suburb of Las Vegas. It contains the headquarters for the team, a team store, and a MacKenzie River Pizza, Grill & Pub restaurant, among other features. It was also the home venue for the Las Vegas Thunderbirds from 2020 to 2024. History Ground was broken on City National Arena on October 5, 2016, shortly after the National Hockey League granted Las Vegas an expansion franchise due to play beginning in the 2017–18 NHL season. It was also built partly to be a hub for recreational and youth hockey for Southern Nevada. In July 2017, the team, now named the Vegas Golden Knights, reached a multi-year deal with City National Bank for the naming rights of the facility branding it as City National Arena. The facility opened on September 18, 2017, after 11 months of construction. County commissioner Steve Sisolak declared the day "City National Arena Day". The arena is the home of the UNLV Skatin' Rebels hockey program. The Rebels moved to the arena from splitting time between the Las Vegas Ice Center and SoBe Ice Arena over the previous ten years. City National Arena becoming the home to the Rebel's hockey program allowed the program to move up to ACHA Division 1. The team's first game at the arena was on September 22, 2017, a 3–0 loss against University of Colorado. The arena has also hosted showcases for the Western States Hockey League. The facility is owned by the Vegas Golden Knights on land owned by the Howard Hughes Corporation. The primary designer of the facility was Murray Craven who was the Vegas Golden Knights first senior vice president and a 17-year NHL veteran. Craven took what he thought to be the best features among other practice faculties around the league and incorporated them into City National Arena. The facility is two floors and 146,000 square feet and features two regulation rinks, team locker rooms for both the Golden Knights and UNLV, sports medicine facilities, equipment room, video room, player lounge, coaches’ offices, restaurant and bar, team store, skate rental, and snack bar. Team offices are on the second floor. The facility has become a favorite among players. The Golden Knights practice and UNLV play on Rink 1 which is branded as Summerlin Hospital Rink. Both Rinks 1 and 2 have a capacity of 600. Rink 2 is branded the Ghost Energy Rink. Soon after the opening of the City National Arena in 2017, Las Vegas Ballpark was constructed on land behind the building for the Las Vegas Aviators baseball team.

Friday's Station

Friday's Station, on US 50 between Kingsbury Grade and Loop Road in Stateline, Nevada, was originally a two-story log-frame building prior to the addition of white lumber siding. It served as a Pony Express station and inn in 1860. In 1986, it was known as Park Cattle Company Residence and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The two-story log-frame white building is visible from U.S. Route 50 near the California-Nevada border at Stateline, Nevada. When built, it was also a Union Army military post of the District of California. During the 1870s through the 1880s it operated as a resort under the name "Buttermilk Bonanza Ranch." The listing included two contributing buildings: the second was a blacksmith shop and stable added to the rear of the inn. The nearest locale was called Smalls by 1891, but had changed its name to Tahoe Village by 1955. The interior of the building has undergone several remodels throughout its history, but the original floor plan included space for both a restaurant and a saloon on the lower floor. The upper floor has remained largely unchanged since its construction, except that it now features bathrooms which were not part of the original structure. It is the only Pony Express station in the state of Nevada to survive in a largely intact form. It is designated as California Historical Landmark #728.

Friday's Station

Friday's Station est un ancien relais de poste de la ville américaine de Stateline, dans le comté de Douglas, dans le Nevada. Cet ancien relais du Pony Express est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 9 octobre 1986. Friday's Station fait également partie des California Historical Landmarks depuis le 8 avril 1960 bien que l'édifice ne se trouve donc pas en Californie. Un monument à la frontière entre la Californie et le Nevada commémore son franchissement fréquent à cet endroit par les cavaliers provenant du relais mais lui aussi se trouve en fait à Stateline et non dans la ville californienne contiguë de South Lake Tahoe, dans le comté d'El Dorado.
