Shattuck Observatory

Shattuck Observatory is an astronomical observatory owned and operated by Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, United States. The observatory's most notable director was Edwin Brant Frost, who went on to be the director of the Yerkes Observatory. Today, it is primarily used for instructional purposes, but is open for public observation of the stars on Friday evenings. For scientific work Dartmouth has shares in the MDM Observatory on Kitt Peak, Arizona, and the Southern African Large Telescope in South Africa. Building The observatory was built in 1854 for Ira Young, Professor of Natural Philosophy, to designs drawn up by his brother Ammi B. Young, and Boston architect G.J.F. Bryant, Young was then the supervising architect of the United States Treasury Department. It is a small building with three wings and a two-story dome (20 foot diameter). Its foundations are granite blocks; the building itself is brick. It is notable as the oldest scientific building on campus. Its construction and equipment costs were covered by a gift of $7,000 by Dr. George Cheyne Shattuck Sr., Dartmouth class of 1803, who stipulated that the Trustees match the gift with an additional $4,000. In 1955 the building was renovated and its original dome replaced, but otherwise the building remains substantially unaltered since its first construction.

Slate Covered Bridge

The Slate Covered Bridge is a wooden covered bridge which carries the Westport Village Road over the Ashuelot River in Westport, a village of Swanzey, New Hampshire. The bridge was built in 2001, as a replacement for an 1862 bridge that was destroyed by arson fire in 1993. The 1862 bridge, one of New Hampshire's small number of surviving 19th-century covered bridges, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Description and history The Slate Covered Bridge is located in southwestern Swanzey, carrying Westport Village Road (formerly an alignment of New Hampshire Route 10) over the Ashuelot River in a roughly north-south orientation. The bridge is a reproduction of the 1862 bridge. The 1862 bridge was a single span Town lattice truss, with a span of 122 feet (37 m) and a roadway width of 17 feet (5.2 m). Its name derives from a family that lived nearby at the time of its construction. It rested on abutments of split granite, and was covered with a tin roof. Its sides were fully sheathed, and it had numerous repairs and parts replaced. Following a devastating fire in 1993, the Slate Bridge was rebuilt in 2001. Through fundraising efforts from the Slate Covered Bridge Committee, a new $950,000 covered bridge was designed by Hoyle Tanner and built by Wright Construction, Inc. The project received several merit awards, including the 2002 National Timber Bridge Award, the 2003 National Council of Structural Engineers Associations Award, and the Plan New Hampshire Award in 2004.

South Congregational Church (Newport, New Hampshire)

South Congregational Church (also known as United Church of Christ in Newport) is a historic church building at 58 S. Main Street (New Hampshire Route 10) in Newport, New Hampshire. The two-story brick church was built in 1823 by the carpenter John Leach for a congregation established in 1779, and is the most northerly of a series of rural churches based on a design used by Elias Carter in the design of the Congregational church in Templeton, Massachusetts. The church building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. The congregation is affiliated with the United Church of Christ. Description and history The South Congregational Church is located (as its name suggests) south of the commercial and civic heart of downtown Newport, at the northeast corner of South Main and Church streets. It is a two-story brick building, with gabled roof. Its front facade is five bays wide, with a gabled entry pavilion projecting from the center three. The bays on the front and sides are articulated by brick piers, which rise to join by arches below the roof cornice. Doorways are set in the three central bays, topped by half-round transom windows. A four-stage tower rises above the entrances, each tier topped by a low balustrade with urned posts. The bottom two stages house a clock and belfry respectively, the latter with arched openings. The church bell was cast in 1822 by Paul Revere & Sons and weighs 1,241 pounds (563 kg). The upper two stages are octagonal, and are capped by a cupola. Built in 1823, the church is one of western New Hampshire's finest surviving Federal period churches. It was built two years after the similar Acworth Congregational Church, a wooden church tentatively attributed to builder Elias Carter. Carter's designs are known to have been an influence on church construction in the region during the early 19th century, with numerous churches drawing inspiration from the church he built in Templeton, Massachusetts. The church congregation was founded in 1779. The church's location, outside the present downtown, is the result of a long-running dispute within the town of where its civic heart should be located. The consequence of this disagreement resulted in the placement of the Baptist church at the town common (north of the present-day commercial downtown), and the placement of this church here. In 1918 the church built a parsonage on the north side of the lot. This was built with funds donated by Lizzie M. Richards and designed by James T. Kelley of Boston. Kelley had previously designed Richards' house in 1898. See also National Register of Historic Places listings in Sullivan County, New Hampshire References External links Church website
South Meetinghouse

The South Meetinghouse is a historic ward hall at 260 Marcy Street (corner of Meeting House Hill) in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Completed in 1866, it is one of the city's finest examples of Italianate architecture, and a rare surviving example of a 19th-century ward hall. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It continues to be used as a community resource. Description and history The South Meetinghouse is located in Portsmouth's southern residential area, at the northwest corner of Marcy Street and Meeting House Hill. Oriented facing Marcy Street, it is a two-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. Italianate stylistic elements of the exterior include round-headed windows, and a bracketed roof at the top of its two-stage tower. The main entrance is sheltered by a Greek Revival four-column porch with Doric columns and an Ionic entablature, which extends the width of the front facade. The interior has a vestibule area with two staircases providing access to the upper level. The ground floor is divided into two spaces, with paired iron columns supporting the ceiling and upper level, which has a single large high-ceilinged chamber. The meetinghouse was built on the site of a 1731 meeting house, and was the only major civic structure on the south side of Portsmouth. It was built in 1866, after several years of agitation by local residents for a public meeting space in the city's southernmost ward. The building was designed by a committee appointed by the city council, and was built at a cost of $9,600. The building's upper level serves as a large public meeting space, and has seen use for political meetings, ward elections, and religious services.

St. Aloysius of Gonzaga Church

St. Aloysius of Gonzaga Church is a Roman Catholic church in Nashua, New Hampshire, United States. The church is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Manchester, New Hampshire. History The parish was founded in 1871 by the French-Canadian population that was growing in the area. It is located at 50 West Hollis Street. The original church of 1873 was built in the American Gothic Revival style with a chancel terminated by a polygonal apse. The structure was dedicated on June 8, 1873. St Louis, as it is more commonly known, is the oldest remaining Catholic parish in Nashua. In 1920 the parish completed a renovation and expanded the church to include a transept. The extended chancel terminated with a straight wall punctuated with a perpendicular style stained glass window. In the early morning hours of July 20, 1976, a fire consumed the roof of the old church. The parish decided to raze the building except for one of two steeples. The shorter of the two steeples remains as a memorial to the original structure. The new structure was dedicated in 1979. The interior of the church has many items save from the previous building, including the stained glass windows from 1887, doors, sanctuary seating, sanctuary light and other items. The parish is home to the former parishioners of the now-closed St. Stanislaus and St. Francis Xavier churches, also in Nashua. St. Stanislaus Parish served the Polish-speaking population of Nashua and was suppressed in 2002 and became part of St Louis parish. The church was called Corpus Christi Chapel and used for Eucharistic Adoration. In 2016 the church became a personal use parish for the Latin Mass St Stanislaus and entrusted to the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter. The former St. Francis Xavier Catholic church served a French-speaking population. The church building is now home to St. Mary and Archangel Michael Church Coptic Orthodox Church.
