Buchtel Community Learning Center

John R. Buchtel Community Learning Center, formerly known as John R. Buchtel High School and often referred to as Buchtel High School or Buchtel CLC, is a public high school in Akron, Ohio, United States, serving grades 7–12. It is one of seven high schools in the Akron Public Schools district. As of 2012, the school has an enrollment of 764 students. History Buchtel High School opened in 1931 and is named after Akron industrialist and philanthropist John R. Buchtel, who helped to organize and finance a number of early Akron firms, including the Goodrich Corporation. Buchtel is best known for his role in the establishment of Buchtel College, which later became the University of Akron. He and his wife contributed more than $500,000 to the college over his lifetime. In 2012, the old Buchtel High School building was torn down after the completion of the new Community Learning Center. The school was designed to expand learning from grades 9–12 by including students in grades 7-8 who had previously attended Perkins Middle School. This was part of a larger project called Imagine Akron Community Learning Centers to rebuild or remodel all Akron Public Schools. Starting in the 2012–2013 school year, the ninth and tenth graders participate in New Tech. The New Tech is a model used in the new ways of teaching which implements modern technology, such as laptops and Smart Boards into the curriculum. Based on a version of "Project Based Learning", students complete projects to show topic and subject mastery and to integrate new types of technology specifically used for teaching.

Buckeye Lake (Ohio)

Buckeye Lake is a reservoir in Fairfield, Licking, and Perry counties in the U.S. state of Ohio. The lake was created in the 19th century as the "Licking Summit Reservoir", an important part of the Ohio and Erie Canal project. With the demise of the canal system in the early 20th century, usage of the lake shifted to recreation. History As early as the 1750s, the area that would become Buckeye Lake was described as a great swamp known as "Buffalo Lick". The main Indian trails between the Ohio River and the Miami towns passed by this swamp. Construction of a dike to block the South Fork of the Licking River occurred between 1826 and 1830, to provide a source of water for the Ohio and Erie Canal. In 1894, the Ohio State Legislature changed the reservoir's name to "Buckeye Lake". An amusement park and other recreation-oriented business developed, thrived and eventually declined as the 20th century proceeded. In 1949 Buckeye Lake was named a state park. Much of the area around the lake came to be used for vacation or permanent residences. In March 2015, the Huntington District of the Army Corps of Engineers were paid $140,000 to release a structural inspection review, which identified numerous weaknesses in the lake's dam and warned that the lake was in imminent danger of a dam failure. Corps officials proposed a range of possible solutions, including doing nothing, completely replacing the dam or entirely draining the lake. As a result of the recommendation, Gov. John Kasich approved $150 million in funding to secure the dam. The dam was restored within three years and under budget at $107 million; a ribbon cutting ceremony was held on November 8, 2018.

Buckley Island

Buckley Island is an island on the Ohio River in Wood County, West Virginia between Marietta, Ohio and Williamstown, West Virginia. The Interstate 77 bridge over the Ohio crosses the island's western portion. Throughout its history, Buckley Island has also been known as Kerrs Island, Duvall Island, and Meigs Island. The island is a part of the Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge and can only be accessed by boat. The earliest known reference to the island is a 1770 journal entry by George Washington who was surveying the area at the time. In 1897, the Buckeye and Eureka Pipeline Company bought the island and turned it into an amusement park. In 1907, a flood washed away much of the park. The Buckley family bought the island in 1911 and it remained in their family until it was sold to the Fish and Wildlife Service for $400,000 in 1998. The Muskingum River empties into the Ohio River just below Buckley Island while the Little Muskingum River empties just above it.

Burnet Woods

Burnet Woods, owned and operated by the Cincinnati Park Board, is an 89.3-acre (361,000 m2) city park in Cincinnati, Ohio. The neighborhoods of Clifton and University Heights bound the park on three sides, while the University of Cincinnati west campus forms the southern border. Burnet Woods is bounded by Martin Luther King Drive on the south, Bishop Street on the east, Jefferson and Ludlow Avenues on the north, and Clifton Avenue on the west. Two streets — Brookline Avenue and Burnet Woods Drive — also pass through the park. The original park area was purchased by the city in 1872, and the landscape design was by Adolph Strauch. Additional purchases were made in 1881 and since. In 1875 an artificial lake was added. The park contains a bandstand constructed in 1911, The Lone Star Pavilion, Diggs Fountain Plaza, a playground area and the Trailside Nature Center (which houses Wolff Planetarium). The Trailside Nature Center was a museum originally constructed as part of the Works Progress Administration. Richardson Monument Located along the southern edge of the park, at the intersection of Martin Luther King Drive and Brookline Avenue, the Richardson Monument was erected in 1972 by University of Cincinnati students. The sculpture, designed by architect Stephen J. Carter, is composed of 84 tons of carved pink granite that was salvaged from H.H. Richardson's Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce Building. The Chamber of Commerce was built in 1889 at the southwest corner of 4th street and Vine Street in downtown Cincinnati, but was destroyed by a fire twenty-two years later in 1911. The site of Richardson's building is now the location of Fourth and Vine Tower (built 1913). References
Butler County Courthouse (Ohio)

The Butler County Courthouse is located in Hamilton, Ohio and was constructed from 1885–1889 by architect David W. Gibbs. The courthouse is a registered historic building listed in the National Register on June 22, 1981. History Butler County was established in 1803 from a section of Hamilton County. The county seat selected was Hamilton and the first courthouse was built 1806 and the second in 1817 on the site of the present structure. When the county realized that the courthouse was too small for the population, a new plan by D.W. Gibbs and was designed in the Second Empire style with features from the Italianate style. County officials laid the building's cornerstone on October 29, 1885. As county funds were insufficient for construction, contracts could not be let until enabling legislation for bond issuance had been passed by the Ohio General Assembly; the necessary legislation was sponsored by George F. Elliott, the senator from Butler County. When originally built, the courthouse centered on a four-part clock tower, which was replaced by a smaller tower with a dome after the original tower collapsed in a 1912 fire. The 1912 tower remains in place, minus the dome, which fell prey to lightning in the 1920s. Exterior The main entrance is reached by stairs which enter into a covered porch. Above the porch is a high design arch supported by Ionic columns. This arch in turn holds a pediment capped with an urn. The mansard-roof gives way to a central tower. The original tower was once four-tiered, domed, and capped with a statue of Justice. This was destroyed in a fire in 1912 when the tower collapsed. It was replaced shortly thereafter with a massive tower and dome designed by local architect Frederick Mueller, but the dome was removed in 1926 after it was struck by lightning. The octagonal tower remains and contains a four-faced clock and is topped with eight spires around the top. When Butler County constructed the Government Services Center in 1999, architecture firm Lorenze and Williams (now LWC Inc.) replicated the green octagonal roof on top of the 11-story tower. Interior The interior was restored to its original appearance and is a perfect balance of symmetry and design elements. The lobby serves as a reception area as well as a museum housing the old clerk of court's desk and an antique cabinet with the hand of the original statue of Justice. The lobby is illuminated by a skylight and contains a beautiful walnut double staircase. A balcony runs along the open hallway of the third floor with arched portals to the offices around the exterior of the building.

Instituto Butler de Arte Americano

El Instituto Butler de Arte Americano (nombre original en inglés: Butler Institute of American Art)​ está ubicado en la avenida Wick de Youngstown, Ohio, Estados Unidos. Fue el primer museo dedicado exclusivamente al arte estadounidense.​ Fundado por el industrial y filántropo local Joseph G. Butler Jr., el museo está abierto al público de manera gratuita desde 1919.​ Inaugurada en 1919, la estructura original es una obra maestra arquitectónica de McKim, Mead & White, incluida en el Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos.​ Colecciones Entre las obras más célebres de la colección permanente del Instituto Butler se encuentra "Snap the Whip" (Chasquear el látigo) de Winslow Homer, un famoso homenaje a la era de la escuela unitaria. Winslow; sin embargo, pintó dos versiones del cuadro (la otra versión se exhibe en el Museo Metropolitano de Arte). Las dos pinturas son distintas: la versión del Instituto Butler​ incluye montañas en el fondo, mientras que la de Metropolitan no. En 2007, el museo adquirió la pintura de Norman Rockwell Lincoln the Railsplitter por 1,6 millones de dólares. El anterior propietario de la pintura de 84,5 por 44,5 pulgadas era el empresario y excandidato presidencial Ross Perot. Otros aspectos del pasado de la nación se reflejan en una colección única de pinturas que muestran a los nativos americanos del sudoeste, que una vez fueron parte de la colección personal de Joseph Butler. Otros puntos destacados incluyen una representación icónica de la boda de George Washington, la célebre Youngstown Strike de William Gropper, una interpretación de la violenta Little Steel Strike de 1937, y The Oregon Trail, de Albert Bierstadt, de 1869. Mientras tanto, la galería de arte moderno presenta una impactante pintura de tamaño natural de Alfred Leslie titulada American: Youngstown, Ohio, que representa a personalidades relacionadas con Butler tal como aparecieron en la década de 1970. El museo también posee una importante colección de obras del pintor expresionista abstracto Robert Motherwell. En los últimos años, el Instituto Butler se ha expandido significativamente. Un ala sur de 19 000 pies cuadrados (1765 m²), el Centro Beecher, fue construido en colaboración con la Universidad Estatal de Youngstown en el año 2000, con el objetivo de unir tecnología y arte. Dos años más tarde, los 3400 pies cuadrados (316 m²) del pabellón Andrews, con un atrio de esculturas, una tienda de regalos y una cafetería, se agregó a la parte trasera de la instalación. En 2006, se compraron las instalaciones vecinas de la Primera Iglesia Cristiana y se convirtieron en un centro de educación y artes escénicas. En octubre de 2007, el museo realizó su primera subasta en quince años. Se donaron piezas de arte de todo el país y se reunieron hasta 125 entusiastas del arte y partidarios del museo para ver y comprar las obras de arte. Todo el dinero recaudado en la subasta se destinó a la contratación de académicos para producir un catálogo actualizado de todas las piezas de arte del museo​ y a cubrir su costo de publicación.
