Woolslair Elementary School

The Woolslair Elementary School (also known as Pittsburgh Woolslair PK-5) is a public elementary school in the Bloomfield neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1898. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. It currently hosts Pittsburgh Woolslair, a pre-K through fifth grade public school, and its STEAM magnet program. History The Woolslair School was built in 1897–98 by the Howard Sub-District, which was the local school board for the 16th Ward (covering parts of present-day Bloomfield and Lower Lawrenceville). Construction began in September, 1897, and the completed building was dedicated on January 6, 1899. The $70,000 building was called the "pride of the 16th Ward". The Pittsburgh Press reported, ...the building is unique in its arrangement of class rooms, its acoustics, its sanitary arrangements, as also in its manner of lighting and heating. As a matter of fact, there is not a single dark corner in any of the rooms, for passages and the ventilation is of the very best. The school remains in operation as Pittsburgh Public Schools Woolslair K-5 as of 2026, serving pre-K through 5th grades and hosting a STEAM magnet program. It is one of the oldest schools in the district. Architecture The Woolslair School is a two-story building constructed from brown brick with sandstone trim. The building consists of a rectangular front section and a T-shaped rear with a complex intersecting hipped roof. The front elevation is symmetrical, with two entrance bays and two projecting polygonal turrets. Each entrance bay has an arched doorway on the first floor and a Palladian window with a small balcony on the second floor. There are eight windows, arranged in groups of four, between the two entrance bays, and three more windows to the outside of each turret. The windows are arched on the first floor and rectangular on the second floor. In its original configuration, the school had 16 classrooms and a 950-seat auditorium which could be accessed from both the first and second floors, which was an unusual feature. The building was designed by Samuel Thornburg McClarren (1862–1940), who also designed the John Morrow Elementary School in Brighton Heights.

Wright's Ferry Bridge

The Wright's Ferry Bridge carries U.S. Route 30 (US 30) over the Susquehanna River between Columbia and Wrightsville, Pennsylvania. The "Wright's Ferry" in its name commemorates the first ferry across the Susquehanna River. This bridge is considered the sixth Columbia–Wrightsville Bridge; it complements the fifth one, which still carries Lincoln Highway traffic. History and notable features Also known informally and locally as the Route 30 bridge, it was commissioned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania during the 1960s to relocate US 30 and bypass the river towns of Wrightsville and Columbia. Construction began in March 1969; G.A. & F.C. Wagman, Inc. was the general contractor used for the project. The bridge was completed in 1972 at a cost of $12 million and opened November 21, 1972 under its present commemorative historical name, with Wright's Ferry being both the historic ferry's and one of Columbia's former names. It was built using reinforced concrete and steel and has forty-six equal sections that are supported by forty-five piers. US 30 crosses it as a divided four-lane roadway. Approximately a year after its opening, the bridge was shut down briefly so that an experimental weather-resistant coating could be applied to its roadway. Tolls were never collected on this bridge, the sixth to have crossed the river in this general location.

Wyoming Monument

The Wyoming Monument is an American Revolutionary War monument and grave site located in the Borough of Wyoming in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. History Background The monument marks the location of the bones of victims from the Battle of Wyoming (also known as the Wyoming Massacre), which took place on July 3, 1778. Local Patriots banded together to defend the area against a raid by Loyalist and indigenous forces. The engagement ended in defeat for the Patriots, and considerable brutality followed the battle. It was not until October 1778 that the commanding officer of Fort Wyoming (Wilkes-Barre) felt the area safe enough to return and begin recovery of the bodies. Memorial The remains were gathered and interred in a common grave, only to be exhumed at public ceremonies in 1832 — ceremonies attended by some of the then elderly survivors of the battle. In 1833, the bones were re-interred in a vault under the present monument. Each year, beginning in 1878 for the 100th anniversary of the battle, a commemorative ceremony is held on the grounds of the monument. The ceremony is sponsored by the Wyoming Commemorative Association. Ownership of the monument is held by the Wyoming Monument Association, originally formed as the Ladies Monumental Association. On August 2, 2008, the monument was struck by lightning, causing some damage and putting the monument in need of repairs. In 2010, the restoration began and the monument, completely repaired and restored, was rededicated at the annual celebration of the Wyoming Commemorative Association in 2011.

Zembo Shrine Building

The Zembo Shrine Building, also known as the Zembo Mosque (and the Zembo Temple Mosque), is a Masonic building located in the Uptown neighborhood of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, United States. It is significant architecturally as an example of Moorish Revival architecture. Construction on the edifice was started in 1928, and opened the building in 1930. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2024. It was designed by prolific Harrisburg architect Charles Howard Lloyd. Zembo Shrine is affiliated with Shriners International, a Masonic order and a philanthropic organization. Construction and design Construction of the Zembo Shrine Building began in 1928 following a design competition won by architect Charles Howard Lloyd. The 62,621-square-foot building was completed at a cost of $1 million and formally dedicated on May 19, 1930. Designed in a blend of Moorish Revival and Art Deco styles, the building features a prominent 120-foot minaret and tilework. Ownership The building was to be sold in 2018 to TempleLive LLC. The initial asking price was $950,000. According to news reports, the building was to be sold by the Zembo Shriners in order to facilitate the organization's mission of raising money for 22 children's hospitals. However, that sale fell through when the Beaty Group was unable to integrate the venue with other regional performing arts establishments. In late February 2022, the Board of Directors of Zembo Shriners announced that the building was no longer for sale and it would remain with the Fraternal organization. Historic persons and events The Zembo building has played host to many events throughout the history of Harrisburg, including Governor's Balls, graduation ceremonies, circuses, and social events. Pennsylvania State Senator M. Harvey Taylor, for whom a prominent Harrisburg bridge is named, served as Potentate of Zembo Shriners in 1932. On September 15, 1960, John F. Kennedy made a campaign stop at Zembo Shrine. Comedian and television host Johnny Carson performed here in 1962 for a Chamber of Commerce ceremony. On Tuesday, October 4, 2016, Hillary Clinton made a campaign stop at Zembo Shrine. Sporting events The Harrisburg Senators, a basketball team, played there during 1947−1951.

Zion Reformed Church (Chambersburg, Pennsylvania)

Zion Reformed Church of the United Church of Christ, more commonly known as Zion Reformed Church or Zion UCC is a congregation of the United Church of Christ in the borough of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, United States. It belongs to the Mercersburg Association of the Penn Central Conference of the United Church of Christ. The congregation was organized in 1778 or 1779, but its first church building was not built until 1811–1813. This structure is still used for weekly worship, besides special services and other events, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. History The church is one of three churches in Chambersburg known as "rose rent churches." Every June these churches pay a single rose in rent to the descendants of Benjamin and Jane Chambers, according to the terms of the 18th century deeds. The church is built in a classic Georgian style. For many years it had the largest auditorium in Chambersburg and hosted many well-known speakers, including Archbishop John Hughes in 1842 and Schuyler Colfax in 1867, then Speaker of the House and later Vice President. Besides the building itself, its two original chandeliers are of interest. The chandelier in the entryway is plain and has been electrified. The other, in the sanctuary, is a Waterford crystal chandelier, and is similar to some which are found in St. Paul's Cathedral, although it is larger than them. It is lit on Thanksgiving Eve and Christmas Eve every year. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, and is located in the Chambersburg Historic District.

Fundació Barnes

La Fundació Barnes (anglès: Barnes Foundation) és una institució d'art educativa situada a Filadèlfia (Estats Units). La fundació va néixer el 1922 gràcies al doctor Albert C. Barnes, qui va acumular una fortuna en contribuir al desenvolupament d'una de les primeres drogues antimicrobianas, «Argyrol». Actualment aquesta institució posseeix més de 2.500 objectes, incloent vuit-centes pintures que s'estima que valen més de 30.000 milions de dòlars. Fins i tot alguns experts, en el documental The Art of Steal creuen que supera per molt els 80.000 milions. El gruix d'elles és un conjunt impressionista i del primer art modern que es considera la col·lecció més important dels Estats Units i que en alguns aspectes avantatja als museus de París. Entre d'altres hi ha 181 pintures de Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 69 de Paul Cézanne, i 59 de Henri Matisse, 46 de Picasso, 7 de Van Gogh, 6 de Seurat així com d'altres nombrosos mestres moderns com Giorgio de Chirico, Paul Gauguin, Édouard Manet, Amedeo Modigliani, Claude Monet, Maurice Utrillo, Maurice Prendergast, i una varietat d'obres d'art africanes. També conserva obres antigues, d'artistes com El Greco i Francisco Goya. Fins a data recent aquest colossal repertori amb prou feines era conegut internacionalment, ja que la fundació (d'acord amb el senyor Barnes) gestionava la seva col·lecció sota condicions molt estrictes: no prestava cap obra per a exposicions i restringia l'accés del públic general per afavorir una contemplació tranquil·la de l'art i donar prioritat a la formació didàctica, majorment d'estudiants i classes socials desfavorides. La Fundació es va veure involucrada en controvèrsia a causa d'una crisi financera que va portar gairebé a la fallida als anys 1990. L'escassetat de recursos econòmics va conduir a les autoritats a pensar en una gestió més lucrativa i publicitada de la col·lecció, propiciant una major afluència de públic. Es va decidir traslladar la galeria de Lower Merion al centre de Filadèlfia, en el Benjamin Franklin Parkway, la qual cosa suposava incomplir el testament d'Albert C. Barnes. Els detractors del trasllat consideraven que aquest «traïa» la visió filantrópica de l'art per rendir-se a finalitats merament econòmiques i turístics. La construcció de la nova seu per als quadres i el seu trasllat es va culminar en 2012, després de diversos conflictes judicials; la decisió havia estat recorreguda (sense èxit) per l'associació Friends of the Barnes and Montgomery County, Pennsylvania en el tribunal de Montgmonery Counthy Orphan. Des de maig de 2012 compta doncs amb dues seus: l'antiga als afores de la ciutat, a Lower Merion, just darrere del campus de la Universitat de Saint Joseph, i la nova seu inaugurada el 2012 emplaçada en una avinguda al centre de Filadèlfia.
