Hollywood Casino Toledo

Hollywood Casino Toledo is a casino in Toledo, Ohio, that opened on May 29, 2012. The casino is owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by Penn Entertainment, and has 125,000 square feet (11,600 m2) of gaming space, with 2,002 slot machines, 60 table games, and 20 poker tables. History After four failed attempts since 1990 to legalize casinos in Ohio, a fifth proposal was placed on the ballot in 2009 to allow casinos at four specific sites, one in each of the state's largest cities. The major backers were Penn National Gaming (now Penn Entertainment), which would build the casinos in Toledo and Columbus, and Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, who would develop the Cleveland and Cincinnati properties. Critics charged that Penn National did not truly intend to build the Toledo casino, which would face stiff competition from Detroit casinos, and only wanted to generate support from local voters. Nevertheless, the measure passed, with 53 percent support both in Lucas County and the state as a whole. Days before the election, Penn National had struck a deal with Lakes Entertainment, a Minnesota-based gaming operator whose 2008 Ohio casino proposal Penn had fought hard to defeat. Lakes paid for 10 percent of the referendum campaign, and received an option to invest in up to 10 percent of the Toledo and Columbus casinos. Penn National bought out Lakes's interest in the projects for $25 million before construction began, after Lakes had paid $1.9 million. After the measure passed, Penn National exercised its option to buy the 44-acre property on the Maumee River at Interstate 75, site of a former Pilkington glass plant, for $2.5 million. Construction began in August 2010. In 2011, Governor John Kasich agreed to allow video lottery terminals at Ohio's seven racetracks, including Penn National's Raceway Park in Toledo. To avoid having its own racino compete with the Hollywood Casino, Penn sought state approval to move Raceway Park to the Youngstown area. In 2015, Hollywoodcasino.com was introduced as the digital casino for all Hollywood properties. References External links Hollywood Casino Toledo

Holmes County Courthouse (Ohio)

The Holmes County Courthouse is a historic government building in Millersburg, Ohio, United States. Built in the late nineteenth century, it has been designated a historic site because of its architectural importance. Previous courthouses Established by an 1824 law and organized in the following year, Holmes County has possessed three courthouses, all of which have been located at the same site in Millersburg. The first courthouse, built in 1825, lasted only nine years before its destruction by fire. Its replacement lasted approximately fifty years until being destroyed circa 1884 to provide room for the construction of the current building, which began in that year and was completed in 1886. Architecture Constructed by Newark builders Hibbert and Schaus according to a design by J.W. Yost, this three-story courthouse comprises such elements as rough stone walls with smooth trim, a colonnaded porch with Ionic columns surrounding the main entrance, and a prominent pediment on the northern side. From its completion until the 1950s, the courthouse featured a statue of Lady Justice located atop the northern pediment, but its deterioration led local officials to place it in storage for many years until area lawyers paid for its restoration. Lesser elements of the building's architecture include steel details, ornamental columns and pilasters closer to the mansard roof, plastered ceilings, a state of Lady Justice in the center of the tiled floor in the building's lobby, and towers on the courthouse's corners. A prominent clock is located in the tower of the courthouse. Today, the Holmes County Courthouse remains the county's center of government. Courtrooms in the building serve as meeting places for the Holmes County Court of Common Pleas, along with other courts. Because of the county's exceptionally large Amish population, the courthouse features a parking area with use restricted to horses and buggies. Historic designation Closely related to the courthouse is a jail, located on the lawn next to the courthouse. This Italianate structure is a rectangular brick building with a complex roofline. It predates the current courthouse, having been erected circa 1880. In 1974, the courthouse and jail were together listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying for inclusion because of their historically significant architecture. Ten years later, much of downtown Millersburg was designated a historic district, the Millersburg Historic District, and listed on the National Register; at the core of the district is the area around the courthouse at the junction of Clay and Jackson Streets. Historic Events In the spring of 1892, a Black man from Mt. Vernon or Wooster, Ohio, whose name remains unknown, was walking in Holmes County, at the time an all-white county. After he had been in town for a few days, a group of white people decided to lynch him because he “lingered about people’s doorsteps and angered them in various ways.” On April 1, 1892, a mob gathered after nightfall, abducted the man, and hanged him from a tree in the public square in front of the county courthouse.

Home Building Association Bank

L'Home Building Association Bank' è un edificio storico situato a Newark, Ohio, progettato dall'architetto americano Louis Sullivan. Realizzato nel 1914 e aperto ufficialmente il 25 agosto 1915, si trova al numero uno di North Third Street, nel centro della città. Questo edificio è uno degli otto istituti bancari realizzati da Sullivan nelle piccole città del Midwest, ognuno dei quali rappresenta un esempio della sua visione moderna e ornamentale dell'architettura. Storia L'Home Building Association Bank, noto anche come "The Old Home", venne concepito in un periodo di prosperità agricola e di crescita delle banche rurali nel Midwest. Questo movimento bancario cercava di rispondere alle necessità locali, favorendo la nascita di istituti finanziari in grado di sostenere l'economia agricola. Sullivan, incaricato di progettare varie banche nella regione, sviluppò uno stile architettonico monumentale ma al tempo stesso moderno, privo di richiami a modelli storici, che intendeva comunicare il cambiamento di ruolo delle banche rurali. Architettura L'edificio è realizzato in muratura portante, caratteristica comune delle strutture progettate da Sullivan per le banche, e si distingue per la ricca decorazione di mattoni policromi e terracotta, segno distintivo del suo stile. Ogni banca progettata da Sullivan, inclusa l'Home Building Association Bank, venne pensata per armonizzarsi con il contesto architettonico circostante, generalmente collocandosi alla fine della strada principale di fronte alla piazza cittadina, come nel caso di Newark. L'Home Building Association Bank, come le altre banche di Sullivan, mirava a esprimere una monumentalità moderna, reinterpretando il ruolo istituzionale delle banche senza appoggiarsi a stili architettonici del passato. L'abilità di Sullivan nell'ornamentazione si riflette nella ricca decorazione dell'edificio, creando una struttura che, pur essendo inserita in una piccola comunità, risalta per la sua bellezza e complessità. Nel corso degli anni, l'edificio ha ospitato diversi tipi di attività, tra cui una macelleria, una gioielleria e, infine, una gelateria. Nonostante le modifiche interne apportate dai vari inquilini, il significato storico e architettonico dell'edificio è rimasto inalterato. Nel 1973, l'edificio è stato inserito nel National Register of Historic Places, riconoscendone il valore culturale e la sua importanza per la comunità di Newark. Nel 2013, l'edificio è stato donato da Stephen Jones, un residente locale, alla Licking County Foundation. Dal 2014, la fondazione ha avviato, insieme al gruppo di volontari "Team Sullivan", un progetto di restauro per restituire alla comunità questo prezioso edificio e garantirne una sostenibilità economica. L'obiettivo è trasformarlo nella nuova sede di Explore Licking County, uno spazio pubblico aperto al pubblico per celebrare e studiare la storia e l'architettura locale.
