Green Sergeant's Covered Bridge

Green Sergeant's Covered Bridge is a wooden covered bridge over the Wickecheoke Creek near the border between the Hunterdon Plateau and Amwell Valley located in Delaware Township, Hunterdon County, New Jersey. As the last historic covered bridge in the state of New Jersey, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 19, 1974 for its significance in engineering and transportation (the Scarborough Bridge in Cherry Hill is the only other covered bridge in New Jersey). It was added as a contributing property to the Covered Bridge Historic District in 1999. History In 1805, Charles Sergeant bought the property in the area. After his death in 1833, the property was inherited by his son, Richard Green Sergeant, the namesake of the bridge. The bridge was constructed in 1872, designed by Charles Ogden Holcombe of Lambertville. After being damaged in 1960, it was dismantled and replaced with a modern bridge. In 1961, due to public outcry, the bridge was rebuilt from the original materials. The bridge has been damaged numerous times over the course of its history by vehicles striking the bridge structure, most recently in 2013 when a truck damaged the support beams of the bridge.

Grover Cleveland Birthplace

The Grover Cleveland Birthplace is a historic site located at 207 Bloomfield Avenue in Caldwell, Essex County, New Jersey, United States. It is the only house museum dedicated to U.S. President Grover Cleveland. History Stephen Grover Cleveland was born in this home on March 18, 1837, the son of Rev. Richard Falley Cleveland and Ann Neal. The building, also known as the Caldwell Presbyterian Church Manse, was built in 1832 and served as a Presbyterian church parsonage for the Cleveland family while Grover's father served as a pastor of the First Presbyterian Church. The elder Cleveland had served in that role only three years before his son's birth but was only the second pastor in its establishment in 1787. The boy's first name was given in honor of the previous pastor, but he did not use the name Stephen in his adult life. Richard Cleveland found it was difficult to support his family of 11 on the $600 a year he earned in his role in Caldwell. The family moved to Buffalo, New York in 1841. The Grover Cleveland Birthplace Memorial Association purchased the house in 1913 for use as a museum. In 1934, the state took over operation. It was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey in 1936. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 16, 1977, for its significance in architecture, religion, and local history. It features vernacular architecture with touches of Federal styling. Today, the home is open to the public as a museum. Its collection of artifacts include Cleveland's cradle and fishing gear as well as his chair from the White House.

Дом рождения Гровера Кливленда

Дом рождения Гровера Кливленда (англ. Grover Cleveland Birthplace) — дом-музей, в котором родился 22-й и 24-й президент США Гровер Кливленд, расположенный в городе Колдуэлл, штат Нью-Джерси. Является единственным домом-музеем, посвящённым жизни президента Кливленда. История Данный дом известен как Дом пресвитерианской церкви Колдуэлла и служил церковным домом для семьи Кливлендов, в то время как отец Гровера, Ричард Фейли Кливленд, служил пастором местной церкви. Первоначально Кливленд был назван Стивеном Гровером в честь первого пастора Первой пресвитерианской церкви Колдуэлла, но в своей взрослой жизни первое имя не использовал. В 1841 году семья Кливленда переехала из Колдуэлла в Нью-Йорк, и в начале XX века группа частных лиц приобрела данный дом, чтобы открыть его как музей. 16 ноября 1977 года дом был добавлен в Национальный реестр исторических мест.

Picatinny Arsenal

O Picatinny Arsenal é uma base de pesquisa militar americana e instalação de manufatura localizada em 6.400 acres (26 km2) de terra nas cidades de Jefferson e Rockaway em Morris County, Nova Jersey, EUA, abrangendo o Lago Picatinny e o Lago Dinamarca. O Picatinny Arsenal é o quartel-general do US Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Armaments Center. É conhecido por ter desenvolvido o onipresente "trilho Picatinny", além de ser o centro de especialização do exército para munições de cartuchos de armas curtas. Histórico O Picatinny Arsenal foi fundado em 1880 como Picatinny Powder Depot. Logo depois, a marinha adquiriu uma parte do arsenal para estabelecer o Lake Denmark Powder Depot, mais tarde conhecido como Lake Denmark Naval Ammunition Depot. Ela fabricou pólvora até depois da Primeira Guerra Mundial, quando a instalação também começou a produzir munições pesadas e se envolveu mais em atividades de pesquisa e desenvolvimento. Durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, o Picatinny Arsenal foi uma importante planta de carregamento de cartuchos de grande calibre, com 18.000 funcionários. Hoje, a instalação desenvolve novas tecnologias para as Forças Armadas dos EUA e constrói vários sistemas de munições, armas e blindagem. O Picatinny Arsenal também abriga o US Army Explosive Ordnance Disposal Technology Directorate. Este grupo é responsável pela criação de ferramentas, equipamentos e procedimentos para o pessoal de Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) do Exército dos EUA. Algumas de suas invenções mais recentes foram o uso de armas em uma plataforma robótica e o robô SWORDS. Essas instalações foram renomeadas recentemente em homenagem a um de seus soldados falecidos, SFC Scott "Smitty" Smith, que foi morto no Iraque em julho de 2006.

Арсенал Пикатинни

Арсенал Пикатинни (Picatinny Arsenal) — военная научно-исследовательская и производственная организация в округе Моррис, Нью-Джерси, США. Находится в собственности федерального правительства, под управлением Министерства обороны США. Основана как пороховой арсенал в 1880 году («Picatinny Powder Depot»). Организация широко известна по одному из своих изобретений — планке Пикатинни (стандарт MIL-STD-1913). История В корпорации проводилось много исследований в период между Первой и Второй мировыми войнами. В частности, изучались способы хранения бездымного пороха, обработки циклонита (RDX). Было обнаружено новое взрывчатое вещество, haleite (позже называлось Ednatol). В 1941 году, перед тем как США приняли участие в войне, арсенал значительно расширился. Во время войны на арсенале работало около 18 тысяч человек, в три смены производились бомбы и снаряды для артиллерии. Тогда же здесь разработали взрыватель с задержкой для топмачтового бомбометания (skip bombing) и специальные бомбы для уничтожения плотин и нефтепромыслов. Название Организация получила название от расположенного рядом озера Пикатинни (англ. Picatinny Lake). Название озера происходит от выражения «водоём» или «стоячий водоём» на делаварском языке унами.

Названий за розташованим поруч озером Пікатінні (англ. Picatinny Lake). Назва озера походить із делаварської мови унамі й означає «водойма» або «стояча водойма». 1907 року арсенал було перейменовано на сучасну назву. У період між Першою і Другою світовими війнами в арсеналі проводилось багато досліджень. Зокрема, вивчалися способи зберігання бездимного пороху, обробки циклоніту (RDX). Була відкрита нова вибухова речовина haleite (пізніше отримала назву Ednatol). 1941 року арсенал суттєво розширився, під час війни на ньому працювало близько 18 тисяч осіб, у три зміни виготовлялися бомби й снаряди для артилерії. Тоді ж тут розробили підривач із затримкою для топмачтового бомбоскидання (skip bombing) та спеціальні бомби для руйнування плотин і нафтопромислів. Лабораторна база Soft Catch Gun System — обладнання з випробувань систем боєприпасів на стійкість до перевантаження під час пострілу (до 20000 g), гальмує 155-мм снаряд після пострілу до нульової швидкості; Davidson Warhead Facility — споруда для підриву бойових частин з метою визначення діаграми розкиду продуктів підриву; Ballistic Gun Range and Evaluation Complex — лабораторія з проведення зовнішніх балістичних тестів.

HX Draw

The HX Draw is a bascule bridge carrying the New Jersey Transit Bergen County Line and Pascack Valley Line across the Hackensack River between Secaucus and East Rutherford. It is commonly nicknamed the "Jack-Knife Bridge" due to its single-leaf bascule mechanism that lifts vertically like a knife blade. History The bridge was designed by noted engineer Joseph Strauss, best known as the chief engineer of the Golden Gate Bridge. Completed in 1911, the HX Draw was one of the first heel trunnion bascule bridges constructed in the United States and originally served as part of the Erie Railroad's main line. The bridge features a Warren through truss design with a steel bascule leaf that opens to allow for maritime traffic on the Hackensack River, a federally navigable waterway. It is operated by NJ Transit, which assumed control after the consolidation of the Erie Lackawanna system into Conrail and later NJ Transit Rail Operations. In 2008, NJ Transit conducted repainting and minor structural updates to maintain functionality and improve corrosion resistance. Design and Operation The HX Draw is a single-leaf bascule bridge utilizing a heel trunnion mechanism, meaning the lifting span pivots vertically on a fixed axle mounted near its heel (inboard) end. This design was considered innovative in the early 20th century for rail crossings with limited space. The bridge does not accommodate roadway traffic and is dedicated solely to rail operations. The span remains one of the few operational movable bridges in New Jersey used exclusively for commuter rail, and must open on demand for vessels as required by U.S. Coast Guard regulations.

Hancock House (Lower Alloways Creek Township, New Jersey)

The Hancock House is a historic structure in the Hancock's Bridge section of Lower Alloways Creek Township, Salem County, New Jersey, United States. It was the site of the 1778 Hancock's Bridge massacre. The site is on the National Register of Historic Places. History The house was built in 1734 for Judge William and Sarah Hancock and features Flemish bond brickwork detailed with blue-glazed bricks, which gives the year of construction (1734) and the initials of the couple for whom it was built: W S for William and Sarah. William died in 1762 and passed the house to his son William, also a judge. American Revolutionary War During the American Revolutionary War, British forces under Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Mawhood launched a successful raid on Salem on March 18, 1778. Three days later on March 21, Major John Graves Simcoe led approximately 300 troops of the 27th Regiment of Foot and Queen's Rangers through a marsh and across Alloway Creek in a surprise attack on Hancock House. At approximately 5 a.m., they entered the house, surprising and killing between 7 and 30 American militiamen sleeping there. Simcoe's troops, reportedly exclaiming "Spare no one! Give no quarter!", allegedly killed several militiamen who were attempting to surrender and fatally injured Loyalist judge William Hancock Jr., the owner of Hancock House before American forces commandeered it, who Simcoe and his troops mistakenly believed was away from the house for the night. All remaining American soldiers in the house were captured.
