Andy Warhol Bridge

Andy Warhol Bridge, also known as the Seventh Street Bridge, spans the Allegheny River in Downtown Pittsburgh. It is the only bridge in the United States named for a visual artist. It was opened as the Seventh Street Bridge at a cost of $1.5 million on June 17, 1926, in a ceremony attended by 2,000 people. History and architectural features Now named for the artist Andy Warhol, a Pittsburgh native, this structure is one of three parallel bridges called The Three Sisters, the others being the Roberto Clemente Bridge and the Rachel Carson Bridge. The Three Sisters are self-anchored suspension bridges and are historically significant because they are the only trio of nearly identical bridges — as well as the first self-anchored suspension spans — built in the United States. The bridge was renamed for Warhol on March 18, 2005, as part of the tenth-anniversary celebration for the Andy Warhol Museum. The museum is nearby at 117 Sandusky Street, a street which leads to the bridge from the north side of the river on Pittsburgh's North Shore. On August 11, 2013, the Andy Warhol Bridge was covered with 580 knitted and crocheted panels in a yarn bombing project known as Knit the Bridge that lasted for four weeks. This is the third bridge on the site, the first having been demolished in early 1884. Construction of its replacement began in 1884, opening to traffic in 1887.

Jefferson Tower

Jefferson Center, formerly known as the Aramark Tower and One Reading Center, is a high-rise office building located at 1101 Market Street in the Center City section of Philadelphia. The building stands 412 feet (126 meters) tall with 32 floors and is currently the 26th-tallest building in the city. The building was originally conceived by the Reading Company while in a state of bankruptcy as a way to capitalize on its real estate holdings in Center City. Reading was granted development rights for the building along with a large parking complex in exchange for granting the city easements for developing the Jefferson Station (then Market East Station) entrance in the ground floor of the adjacent Reading Terminal. Construction soon began and the building was completed in 1984. The building was designed by Bower Lewis Thrower (BLT) Architects of Philadelphia. In 2018, Aramark vacated the building when the company relocated its headquarters to 2400 Market Street. In its place, Thomas Jefferson University and Jefferson Health became the primary tenant. Thomas Jefferson University occupies 14 floors of the 32 story building, which was renamed Jefferson Center.

Armstrong Power Plant

Armstrong Power Station was a 356 megawatt (MW), coal power plant in Washington Township, Armstrong County along the Allegheny River across from Mahoning Creek and Templeton, Pennsylvania, about 10 miles (16 km) north of Kittanning, Pennsylvania. The plant operated from 1958 to 2012. History Armstrong's two units went in service in 1958 and 1959. The chimney of Armstrong Power Station, which was built in 1982 is 1,011 feet (308 m) tall and cost $13 million. The facility was owned by Allegheny Energy Supply before merging with Akron, Ohio based FirstEnergy in February 2011. The power plant was closed on September 1, 2012, by FirstEnergy, along with six other plants in the tri-county grid to comply with federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines that set new Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) and other environmental and air quality requirements. The decision was made not to invest in some of the smaller plants considering it would be quite expensive to install a scrubber and other air pollution control upgrades to keep the plant in operation.

Augustus Lutheran Church

Die Augustus Lutheran Church (deutsch Lutherische Augustus-Kirche) ist eine historisch bedeutsame Kirche in Trappe, Pennsylvania. Sie gehört zu einer Kirchengemeinde der Evangelisch-Lutherischen Kirche in Amerika. Geschichte Die Kirche wurde ab 1743 durch den pietistischen Pastor Henry Melchior Mühlenberg erbaut, der als „Patriarch“ der lutherischen Kirche in den Dreizehn Kolonien gilt. Die Widmung erfolgte im Oktober 1746. Benannt wurde sie nach August Hermann Francke, dem Gründer der Franckeschen Stiftungen, der für Mühlenberg ein großes Vorbild war und ihn zu seiner Missionstätigkeit in Pennsylvania ermuntert hatte. Auch nach dem Bau einer größeren Kirche mit Turm wenige Meter westlich im Jahr 1852 wurden in der Augustus Lutheran Church (nun auch als Old Trappe Church bezeichnet) weiterhin Sommerversammlungen abgehalten. Sie ist die älteste erhaltene lutherische Kirche in den Vereinigten Staaten und gilt als ein sehr gutes Beispiel für den traditionellen Baustil der deutschen Siedler in Pennsylvania. Die Augustus Lutheran Church wurde am 24. Dezember 1967 als Baudenkmal in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen. Architektur und Ausstattung Die aus Sandstein gebaute turmlose Saalkirche hat hinter dem Altar einen polygonalen Abschluss, wobei die Seitenfenster, dem traditionellen Baustil in der Region folgend, asymmetrisch gesetzt sind. Im Jahr 1745 schenkten englische Gemeindemitglieder der Augustus Lutheran Church eine Kanzel aus Walnussholz. 1752 wurde in der nordöstlichen Ecke des Innenraums eine Empore für die kurz zuvor aus Europa importierte Orgel errichtet. Die erodierende Sandsteinmauer wurde 1814 verputzt. Seitdem wurde das Dach fünfmal erneuert, zuletzt im Jahr 1974. Gleichfalls im Jahr 1814 wurde das Kircheninnere im Stil der Pennsylvania Dutch ausgemalt. Im Jahr 1928 erfuhr die Augustus Lutheran Church eine umfangreiche Restaurierung, wobei auch die Wandmalerei von 1814 wiederhergestellt wurde. 1968 wurden die Fensterrahmen erneuert. Die Bankreihen sind bis heute im Original erhalten. Weblinks Our Legacy auf der Website der Kirchengemeinde Assembly Members Take Time to See Shrine Important to Their Lutheran Roots (elca.org, 18.

B&O Railroad Bridge

The B&O Railroad Bridge (also called CSXT's Schuylkill River Bridge) is a 1910 swing bridge across the Schuylkill River from Bartram's Garden on the west bank to the east bank Grays Ferry neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It carries CSX Philadelphia Subdivision rail lines over the river, and sits upstream from the Passyunk Avenue Bridge and downstream from the Grays Ferry Bridge. Construction and history It is the second bridge to occupy this location. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad built the original one in the 1880s, after losing a stock takeover battle for its main route into Philadelphia, the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad. The winner, the rival Pennsylvania Railroad, gave the B&O until 1884 to build its own southwest line into the city before cutting off access. The new route required a new bridge over the Schuylkill to replace the use of the PW&B's Gray's Ferry Bridge, and so the B&O built a four-span iron through truss bridge with a center swing span to allow boats to pass. It opened on July 11, 1886. (The cost of building the new route, especially the Howard Street Tunnel on the connecting Baltimore Belt Line, led to the B&O's first bankruptcy.) In 1910, the B&O replaced the original bridge with the current one. The three-span through truss bridge with a center swing span was built by the American Bridge Company. During construction, a tugboat grounded on the nearby riverbank and was freed by a B&O locomotive. The bridge was struck by the tugboat Radnor, hauling a barge loaded with oleum, on March 12, 1924. The bridge was originally protected by a mechanical interlocking, which was revised in 1914. It was replaced in 1946 with an electrical interlocking, which also controlled the nearby junction with the Reading Company at Eastwick. Modern rehabilitation In 1977, the Chessie System, then-owner of the bridge, did engineering studies of the swing bridge mechanisms and determined that extensive rehabilitation was needed. Yet the project was placed on hold for decades, despite associated FRA violations and operational difficulties. In late 2003, Chessie successor CSX Transportation finally undertook the renovation. The project included extensive work on the miter rails, the mechanisms that allow the rails to be connected and disconnected as the bridge is opened and closed. Because the bridge could not be opened during construction, close coordination was required between the contractors; CSX, which controlled rail traffic; and the U.S. Coast Guard, which controlled marine traffic. The rehabilitation was completed on time in May 2004. See also List of crossings of the Schuylkill River References

B.F. Jones Memorial Library

The B.F. Jones Memorial Library is a historic library in Aliquippa, a city in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, United States. Named for steel tycoon Benjamin Franklin Jones, it was built in 1927 with money donated by Jones' daughter. As a product of the profits of the Jones and Laughlin Steel Company, for which Aliquippa was a company town, it resembled a Carnegie library. Rated a high-quality example of small-scale Renaissance Revival architecture, the two-story library is built primarily of Indiana Limestone with a bronze roof. Among its leading features are multiple plaster casts, windows of stained glass, carvings in imitation of those made by Italian sculptor Andrea della Robbia, and a large statue of Jones. In 1978, the library was added to the National Register of Historic Places for its architecture and for its association with Jones in the development of Aliquippa. The library continues in operation to the present day. References External links Library website Archived April 11, 2009, at the Wayback Machine
