Philadelphia Folk Festival

The Philadelphia Folk Festival is a folk music festival held annually at Old Pool Farm in Upper Salford, Pennsylvania, just outside of Philadelphia. The four-night, three-day festival is produced and run by the non-profit Philadelphia Folksong Society and staffed almost entirely by volunteers. The event hosts contemporary and traditional artists in genres under the umbrella of Folk, including World/Fusion, Celtic, Singer/Songwriter, Folk Rock, Country, Klezmer, Blues, Bluegrass, Hip/Hop, Spoken Word, Storytelling, and Dance. Each year the event hosts over 35,000 visitors and nearly 7,000 campers at the Old Pool Farm. The event presents over 75 hours of music with local, regional, and national talent on its stages. The Festival is one of the longest-running folk music festivals in the United States, since it began in 1962. History According to the Philadelphia Folk Festival's "About Fest" website, "The Philadelphia Folk Festival emerged as a pivotal event in folk music history in the United States. Inaugurated in 1962 at Wilson Farm near Paoli, Pennsylvania, the festival featured renowned artists such as Reverend Gary Davis, Bonnie Dobson, and Pete Seeger. Despite expecting 2000 attendees, the festival drew in 2500 individuals, showcasing the growing interest in folk music. Over the years, the festival became a platform for musicians to share their talents and connect with like-minded individuals, contributing to the resurgence of folk music in the 1960s. This inaugural event laid the foundation for Philadelphia as a center for folk music culture". The Philadelphia Folksong Society has presented the Philadelphia Folk Festival since 1962. Gene Shay and folklorist Kenneth S. Goldstein founded the festival, along with George Britton, Bob Seigel, David Baskin, Esther Halpern, Tossi Aaron and others. Shay acted as Master of Ceremonies since its inception until shortly before his death and Goldstein served as Program Director for the first 15 years. The festival was originally held on Wilson Farm in Paoli, Pennsylvania. The Thursday night Camp Stage show has previously been hosted by WXPN radio for the nationally syndicated World Cafe with David Dye. The Philadelphia Folksong Society presents the Philadelphia Folk Festival and has had a full-time, year-round staff. The most recent PFS Executive Director, Justin Nordell, served in that capacity from 2007 to 2023, while past E.D.s include Lauri Barish and Levi Landis. This festival went online in 2020 and 2021, raising over $200,000 to support artists out of work, as live concerts were cancelled caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Festival returned as a hybrid and in-person live event for 2022. The hosting organization, the Philadelphia Folksong Society announced a pause in production, cancelling the 2023 festival for the first time in its 50 year history. It resumed under new leadership with a successful festival in 2024 and plans for the 2025 festival are underway. See also Newport Folk Festival References

Филадельфийский храм

Филадельфийский храм — храм Церкви Иисуса Христа Святых последних дней в районе Логан-сквер города Филадельфия, штат Пенсильвания, построенный в 2016 году. О строительстве храма было объявлено 4 октября 2008 года во время генеральной конференции президентом Церкви Томасом С. Монсоном. Это первый храм церкви в штате Пенсильвания, и первый храм между Вашингтоном, округ Колумбия, и Нью-Йорком. История После объявления в октябре 2008 года о планах строительства храма в Филадельфии 19 ноября 2009 года ЦИХСПД объявила, что он будет расположен на Вайн-стрит в центре Филадельфии, прямо к северо-востоку от Логан-сквера. Это место расположено рядом с Центральной библиотекой Парквэя, зданием Семейного суда, и Собором Святых Петра и Павла, главным храмом Римско-католической архиепархии Филадельфии. На церемонии закладки фундамента 17 сентября 2011 года присутствовали местные лидеры общины, под председательством Генри Б. Айринга, первого советника в Первом президентстве церкви. К июлю 2012 года значительных работ по строительству храма не началось, поскольку не был найден подрядчик для сноса существующей парковки и начала подземных работ по строительству двухуровневой парковки. В ноябре 2012 года Филадельфийская комиссия по искусству дала окончательное одобрение дизайну храма, несмотря на то, что некоторые члены считали здание слишком похожим по внешнему виду на другие здания в окрестностях. К февралю 2013 года большая часть парковки на участке храма была убрана, а к 2 мая того же года подземные работы по строительству здания были завершены. К августу 2014 года здание было возведено до полной высоты. Дизайн и архитектура Филадельфийский храм выполнен в неоклассическом стиле. При проектировании храма были изучены такие известные здания Филадельфии, как башня Церкви Христа, интерьер Индепенденс-холла и Институт Франклина. Стены храма, как и детали в коринфском ордере, отделаны светло-серым гранитом с Оленьего острова, чтобы соответствовать стилю соседних зданий, что нетипично для большинства храмов Церкви Иисуса Христа Святых последних дней, в строительстве которых используется предварительно напряжённый бетон. У основания храма посажено 44 дерева японского клёна. В интерьере используется георгианский стиль для отражения ранней истории США и истории ЦИХСПД.

Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, Bridge at West Falls

The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, Bridge at West Falls is a stone and iron plate girder bridge that is located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It carries two CSX Trenton Subdivision tracks over Kelly Drive, Schuylkill River, and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive (formerly West River Drive). History and notable features This was built in 1890 by the Reading Railroad, and forms a "Y" junction with the adjacent Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Schuylkill River Viaduct (1854). The bridge consists of an 80-foot (24 m) stone arch over Kelly Drive and eight plate-girder spans that follow a 6-degree curve.

Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Schuylkill River Viaduct

The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad, Schuylkill River Viaduct, also called the Reading Railroad Bridge and the Falls Rail Bridge, is a stone arch bridge that carries rail traffic over the Schuylkill River at Falls of Schuylkill (East Falls) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Located in Fairmount Park, the bridge also spans Martin Luther King, Jr., Drive, and Kelly Drive. The name Philadelphia & Reading Railroad (P&R) was later shortened to Reading Company. The current bridge replaced an adjacent P&R bridge, built of wood. Prior to that, one of the earliest suspension bridges in the United States, the 1808 Chain Bridge at Falls of Schuylkill, was built at this location. That collapsed in 1816, and was replaced in 1818 by a covered bridge, built on the chain bridge's abutments. The covered bridge washed away in 1822. The P&R built the viaduct, 1853–56, to carry coal cars to the company's coal terminal on the Delaware River in the Port Richmond neighborhood of Philadelphia. The bridge's design is unusual. Because it crosses the river at an oblique angle, it was constructed as a ribbed skew arch bridge, with each span composed of a series of offset stone arches. While not as strong as skewed barrel vault spans, these spans were much easier to build, while still assuring that the bridge's abutments were parallel to the water flow. The bridge consists of six main spans, each 78 feet (24 m) in length, crossing the river and Kelly Drive; five small arches, each 9 feet (2.7 m) in length, for pedestrian traffic; and a 30-foot (9.1 m) arch over Martin Luther King, Jr., Drive. The bridge's spandrel walls were reinforced in 1935. The bridge continues to carry rail traffic to this day.

Philosophical Hall

Philosophical Hall is a historic building at 104 S. 5th Street in Center City, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. Located near Independence Hall, the building has, for over 200 years, been the headquarters of the American Philosophical Society. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1965 for its association with that organization. Origin For twenty years after its founding, the American Philosophical Society (APS) had no home of its own, and met in different locations in Philadelphia. In 1783, APS members voted to construct a building in which meetings could be held. The Society originally considered a lot near Arch Street, but a lot became available in the State House yard, now Independence Square. In 1785 the Pennsylvania Legislative Assembly, who met in State House, today known as Independence Hall, voted to give the lot to the Society. The Society immediately began the excavation of the cellar of the new building. However, fundraising proceeded slowly, and the building took four years to construct, the final money needed to complete it coming by way of a loan from Society member Benjamin Franklin. History Philosophical Hall is used as a place for APS meetings and for its offices and library. The building was larger than the Society's requirements, and it rented out rooms. Classes for the University of Pennsylvania were held here for several years. Charles Willson Peale located his Philadelphia Museum here for several years. Government also rented space—including the city and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The Society finally ended its practice of renting space in 1934, when a significant bequest from a member placed it on a sound financial footing. The Society considered leaving Philosophical Hall several times, once when the city sought to acquire the building as a courthouse; however, the parties could not agree on a price. In the early 20th century, the Society considered a move to the newly constructed boulevard, the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Planners hoped to lure intellectual groups to offices on the Parkway. The Society's membership considered this several times, but the 1934 bequest put an end to the discussions; the APS remained at Philosophical Hall. In 1890, the APS built a third story onto Philosophical Hall to house its expanding library, but the addition was considered ugly and was removed in 1949, after the library moved to other space. Philosophical Hall provides space for the APS's offices and houses a museum that is open to the public April through December each year. The twice-yearly meetings moved to Benjamin Franklin Hall, about a block away, in 1993. It is the only privately owned structure on Independence Square.

Philosophical Hall

Philosophical Hall es un edificio histórico en 104 S. 5th Street en Center City, Filadelfia, Pensilvania, Estados Unidos. Ubicado cerca de Independence Hall, el edificio ha sido, durante más de 200 años, la sede de la Sociedad Filosófica Estadounidense. Fue designado Monumento Histórico Nacional en 1965 por su asociación con esa organización. Origen Durante veinte años después de su fundación, la Sociedad Filosófica Estadounidense (APS) no tuvo un hogar propio y se reunió en diferentes lugares de Filadelfia. En 1783, los miembros de APS votaron para construir un edificio en el que se pudieran realizar reuniones. La Sociedad originalmente consideró un lote cerca de Arch Street, pero quedó disponible un lote en el patio de la Casa del Estado, ahora Independence Square. En 1785, la Asamblea Legislativa de Pensilvania, que se reunió en la Casa del Estado, hoy conocida como Salón de la Independencia, votó para dar el lote a la Sociedad.​ La Sociedad inmediatamente comenzó la excavación del sótano del nuevo edificio. Sin embargo, la recaudación de fondos avanzó lentamente, y el edificio tardó cuatro años en construirse, el dinero final necesario para completarlo provino de un préstamo del miembro de la Sociedad, Benjamin Franklin.​ Historia Proporcionó un lugar para las reuniones de APS, así como para sus oficinas y biblioteca. El edificio era más grande que los requisitos de la Sociedad y alquilaba habitaciones. Las clases de la Universidad de Pensilvania se llevaron a cabo aquí durante varios años. Charles Willson Peale ubicó aquí su Museo de Filadelfia durante varios años. El gobierno también alquiló espacio, incluida la ciudad y el Tribunal de Distrito de los Estados Unidos para el Distrito Este de Pensilvania. La Sociedad finalmente puso fin a su práctica de alquilar espacio en 1934, cuando un importante legado de un miembro la colocó sobre una base financiera sólida.​ La Sociedad consideró abandonarlo varias veces, una vez cuando la ciudad buscó adquirir el edificio como palacio de justicia; sin embargo, las partes no pudieron ponerse de acuerdo sobre un precio. A principios del siglo XX, la Sociedad consideró mudarse al bulevar recién construido, Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Los planificadores esperaban atraer a grupos intelectuales a las oficinas en Parkway. Los miembros de la Sociedad consideraron esto varias veces, pero el legado de 1934 puso fin a las discusiones; la APS permaneció aquí. En 1890, la APS leconstruyó un tercer piso en Philosophical Hall para albergar su biblioteca en expansión, pero la adición se consideró fea y se eliminó en 1949, después de que la biblioteca se mudara a otro espacio.​ Hoy, brinda espacio para las oficinas de la APS y alberga un museo que está abierto al público de abril a diciembre de cada año. Las reuniones bianuales se trasladaron a Benjamin Franklin Hall, a una cuadra de distancia, en 1993.​ Es la única estructura de propiedad privada en Independence Square.​ Referencias Enlaces externos
