McCleary Elementary School

The McCleary Elementary School (also known as McCleary Traditional Academy, and more recently as McCleary Early Childhood Center) is a former elementary school located in the Upper Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States, and is a building from 1900. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. History The McCleary School was built in 1900–02 by the Mount Albion Sub-District, the local educational board serving the 18th Ward or present-day Upper Lawrenceville, Stanton Heights, and Morningside. Infighting and mismanagement by the Mount Albion school board caused major schedule and budget overruns, and the board ended up having to levy additional taxes to finish the project. The final cost of the building was about $130,000, which was almost four times the original budget, and construction dragged on for two more years even though the school was said to be "nearly complete" in June, 1900. The school even had to be equipped with used furnishings in order to reduce costs. As a result of widespread ill will toward the project among the general public, the school opened without any fanfare on April 7, 1902, in what the Pittsburgh Press called "the quietest opening of a school building the city has ever seen." The building was last used by Pittsburgh Public Schools during the 2011–12 school year as an early childhood education center. In 2013, the school was sold to a developer for $410,000. It was then renovated and converted to condominiums in 2015–17. The project also added a third story to the building. Architecture The McCleary School is a two-story brick building with stone trim. The main elevation is five bays wide, with rectangular windows on the first floor and pairs of arched windows set inside larger arched openings on the second floor. The main entrance, which sits slightly below street level, is set inside a large semicircular arch and accentuated with a cornice, pilasters, and spandrels ornamented with floral motifs. The building originally had a hipped roof with a stained-glass dome, but this was later replaced with a flat roof. The interior of the building had eight classrooms arranged around a central two-story rotunda. References

As the permit holder for the Meadow Grounds Dam the PFBC is responsible for its safe operation and maintenance. Meadow Grounds Dam is categorized by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) as a High Hazard (Category 1), size class B structure. The drainage area of the dam's watershed is 3.2 square miles (8.3 km2) on Roaring Run. The zoned earth embankment creates a 204 acres (83 ha) reservoir and at normal pool stores 3,130 acre-feet (3,860,000 m3) of water. A normal pool elevation of 1,495.3 feet (455.8 m) is maintained throughout the year via the principal and auxiliary spillways. The zoned earth fill dam is 39 feet (12 m) in height and 530 feet (160 m) long. The auxiliary spillway at Meadow Grounds Dam is a trapezoidal-shaped concrete chute cut into rock though a natural saddle about 200 feet (61 m) to the right of the dams right abutment. The spillway is provided with a 67 foot (20 m) long trapezoidal-shaped weir that discharges into a concrete lined stilling basin and then into a riprap lined earth channel.

Mercer Museum

The Mercer Museum is a museum located in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. The Bucks County Historical Society operates the Mercer Museum, the Research Library, and Fonthill Castle, the former home of the museum's founder, archeologist Henry Chapman Mercer. The museum was individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, and was later included in a National Historic Landmark District along with the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works and Fonthill. These three structures are the only poured-in-place concrete structures built by Mercer. History Henry Mercer was a gentleman anthropologist. On a cruise up the Ruhr in early adulthood, Mercer was impressed by the eclipse of artisanal culture by industrial production, and resolved himself to preserving artifacts of preindustrial life. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Mercer collected pre-industrial hand tools and other implements of the past. He believed that the story of human progress and accomplishments was told by the tools and objects that people used and saw these time-honored crafts slowly disappearing from memory. Mercer personally designed plans for a museum to house his collection, six stories tall and cast of poured-in-place concrete. Mercer's museum was completed in 1916. In addition to tools, it displays furnishings of early America, carriages, stove plates, a gallows, antique fire engines, a whaleboat, and the Lenape Stone. The Mercer Museum Library, which houses the Bucks County Historical Society's archive of historical research materials, is located on its third floor. In June 2011, construction was completed on a new, extensive visitors center at the front of the museum. Construction The museum is one of three poured-in-place concrete structures built by Mercer. The others include his home Fonthill and the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works, both of which are located one mile from the museum. Mercer decided to build with concrete after the Great Boston Fire of 1872 destroyed his aunt's prized collection of medieval armor, which had been stored in wooden structures. He did not want his own collections to suffer the same fate. Locals mocked his choice of building materials, but on completion of the museum, he lit a bonfire on its roof to prove that it was fireproof. Mercer's museum was an early demonstration of rebar-reinforced concrete as a structural material.
