Freimaurertempel von Philadelphia

Der Freimaurertempel von Philadelphia ist ein historisches Veranstaltungs- und Ritualgebäude der Freimaurer im Stadtzentrum Philadelphias. Der im Stile des Historismus errichtete Tempel wurde 1873 fertiggestellt und dient als Versammlungsort der Großloge von Pennsylvania. Er wird seit 1985 als National Historic Landmark geführt. Geschichte Seit 1732 existierte eine Freimaurerloge in Philadelphia. Die Treffen fanden bis zum Bau des Freimaurertempels in unterschiedlichen Tavernen und Sälen statt. Grundsteinlegung für den Tempel, dessen Entwurf auf den Freimaurer und Architekten James H. Windrim zurückging, war 1868 in Center City, Philadelphia. Der Bau erfolgte im neuromanischen Norman Style und dauerte bis zum September 1873. Die Kosten stellten mit 1,6 Millionen US-Dollar damals ein gewaltiges Vermögen dar, weshalb die Loge erst nach 14 weiteren Jahren über genügend Mittel verfügte, mit der Inneneinrichtung zu beginnen. Verantwortlich für die Innengestaltung, welche von 1889 bis 1904 durchgeführt wurde, war der renommierte Innenarchitekt George Herzog, dessen Vater der Landschaftsmaler Hermann Ottomar Herzog war. 1902 wurde der Freimaurertempel als eines der ersten Gebäude in Philadelphia vollständig elektrifiziert. Am 27. Mai 1971 wurde der Tempel in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen. Am 4. Februar 1985 wurde der Freimaurertempel von Philadelphia als National Historic Landmark anerkannt, wobei vor allem die prächtig ausgeschmückte und detaillierte Innenausstattung als Kulturgut nationaler Bedeutung zählt. Architektur Die sieben Hallen der Logen sind in unterschiedlichem Stil gehalten, der teilweise bekannte Bauwerken imitiert. Ein Raum orientierte sich am Tempel von Luxor und wurde von Hermann Ottomar Herzog ausgestaltet. Die andere, orientalische Halle hat die Alhambra zum Vorbild. Die korinthische Säulenhalle ist die größte und dient als Versammlungsraum der Großloge von Pennsylvania. Des Weiteren gibt es einen ionischen Saal mit 24 elfenbeinfarbenen Säulen, einen im normannischen Stil mit Rundbögen und einen gotischen mit Spitzbögen und Fialen. Die mit Bleiglasfenstern ausgestattete Renaissance-Halle schließt mit einer Gewölbedecke ab. Masonic Library and Museum of Pennsylvania Im Gebäude befindet sich das Masonic Library and Museum of Pennsylvania. Diese Sammlung von 70.000 Büchern und Schriftstücken enthält unter anderem das erste gedruckte Buch der Freimaurer von Amerika, welches von Benjamin Franklin stammt, sowie eine Geneva-Bibel. Ein Schwerpunkt der Ausstellung sind die Gründerväter der Vereinigten Staaten und ihre Verbindungen zur Freimaurerei. Ferner enthält sie Skulpturen, Gemälde und Fotografien. Ein weiterer Höhepunkt ist der Maurerschurz von George Washington als auch eine Gravur von Paul Revere. Weblinks Tour of Temple. In: Webpräsenz Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania. Abgerufen am 16.

Masonic Temple (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

The Masonic Temple is a historic Masonic building in Philadelphia. Located at 1 North Broad Street, directly across from Philadelphia City Hall, it serves as the headquarters of the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania, Free and Accepted Masons. The Temple features the Masonic Library and Museum of Pennsylvania, and receives thousands of visitors every year to view the ornate structure, which includes seven lodge rooms, where today a number of Philadelphia lodges and the Grand Lodge conduct their meetings. Prior Masonic Temples in Philadelphia Freemasonry existed in Philadelphia since the early 1700s. The original Masonic temple in the city was built in 1811 on Chestnut Street between 7th and 8th Street in Center City Philadelphia, but burned down in 1819. It was rebuilt in 1820. A second Masonic temple was built on Chestnut Street in the 1850s, dedicated in 1855 and sold in 1873, once the new temple was completed. Construction The Temple was designed in the medieval Norman style by James H. Windrim, who was 27 years old at the time he won the design competition. The massive granite cornerstone, weighing ten tons, was leveled on St. John the Baptist's Day, June 24, 1868. The ceremonial gavel used on that day by Grand Master Richard Vaux was the same gavel used by President George Washington in leveling the cornerstone of the nation's Capitol building in 1793. The construction was completed five years later, in 1873, and dedicated on September 29th of that year. The interior, designed by George Herzog, was begun in 1887 and took another fifteen years to finish. The bold and elaborate elevations on Broad and Filbert Streets, especially the beautiful portico of Quincy granite, make it one of the great architectural wonders of Philadelphia. The exterior stone of the building on Broad and Filbert Streets is Cape Ann Syenite from Syne in Upper Egypt. On May 27, 1971, the Temple was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1985. It was cited in its landmark designation as one of the nation's most elaborate examples of Masonic architecture. In the 21st century, it hosts an event venue known as One North Broad. Gallery See also Joseph A.

Масонский храм Филадельфии

Масонский храм Филадельфии (англ. Masonic Temple Philadelphia) — историческое масонское здание в Филадельфии, штат Пенсильвания. Он расположен на Первой улице Норд-Броуд, прямо напротив ратуши. Храм служит штаб-квартирой Великой ложи Пенсильвании. Храм принимает тысячи посетителей каждый год, которые могут насладиться видами богатого убранства, как интерьера, так и фасадов здания. В храме есть семь помещений лож, где сегодня проводят свои собрания филадельфийские ложи и Великая ложа Пенсильвании. История Храм был спроектирован в средневековом стиле Норманом Джеймсом Х. Уиндримом, которому было 27 лет в то время, когда он выиграл конкурс на лучший проект. Массивный гранитный краеугольный камень, весом в десять тонн, был положен в основу здания в День Иоанна Крестителя — 24 июня 1868 года. На торжественной закладке краеугольного камня великий мастер Ричард Вокс пользовался молотком Джорджа Вашингтона, которым Вашингтон выравнивал краеугольный камень Капитолия при его основании в 1793 году. Строительство было завершено через пять лет, в 1873 году. Интерьеры были разработаны Джорджем Херцогом. Их оформление длилось пятнадцать лет, до 1887 года. Высокие и красивые фасады, выходящие на улицы Броуд и Филберт, особенно красивый портик из гранита из Куинси, делают Филадельфийский храм одним из великих архитектурных чудес Филадельфии. Фасадный отделочный камень здания на улицах Броуд и Филберт был привезён из города Сиенита, который находится в Верхнем Египте. 27 мая 1971 года, храм был включён в «Национальный реестр исторических мест США». Кроме того, Филадельфийский храм является Национальным историческим памятником.

Masontown Bridge

The Masontown Bridge is a four-lane, concrete, plate girder bridge that carries vehicular traffic across the Monongahela River between Masontown, Pennsylvania and Monongahela Township, Pennsylvania (near Carmichaels), by way of Pennsylvania Route 21. History and notable features The current structure was completed and opened in December 2015 after a three-year project costing $49.6 million to replace the previous truss bridge that was built in 1925 and rehabilitated in 1993. The first two lanes of the new bridge were completed in 2013, at which point the old truss bridge was imploded to make way for the other two lanes of the new bridge. It cost $50 million to build the new bridge. The new bridge was constructed by Brayman Construction. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation undertook the bridge replacement project as part of a years-long effort to modernize and improve Route 21 and expand it in some areas. The old bridge was one of many large truss bridges built in Pennsylvania and Ohio by Farris Engineering in the 1920s. The bridge was constructed by the Independent Bridge Company, Pittsburgh. The structure passed directly in front of the Hatfield's Ferry Power Station and carried a large amount of associated truck traffic. It replaced a ferry at the site that had been established in 1769. That was first called the Republican Ferry, but later called McCann Ferry after the family that operated it.

Memorial Bridge (Connellsville)

The Memorial Bridge is a structure that crosses the Youghiogheny River, connecting the eastern and western shores of Connellsville, Pennsylvania, US. The bridge was constructed in 1952 as part of a new routing a U.S. Route 119 (US 119) on a four-lane highway around the city center. In 1982, the structure was rehabilitated as part of a decade long widening of the route through Fayette County, that included the creation of a freeway bypass in Uniontown, 12 miles (19 km) to the south. In 2009–10, the road was again reconstructed, this time to accommodate improved pedestrian pathways. The walkways were widened as part of a plan to connect the Great Allegheny Passage, the Washington, D.C. to Pittsburgh trail that runs just past the western bridge approach, to an extension of the small Coal & Coke Trail, which currently runs from Mount Pleasant to Scottdale, Pennsylvania. Receding water in 2024 exposed the original construction.

Among the founders was Laura Barnes, wife of art collector Albert C. Barnes. A renewal began in 2012 with "Botanical Bill" Earley and an "unlikely army of Montgomery County inmates, rabbinic students, truants, Boy Scouts, ROTC members, and Little Leaguers" clearing the park of 1,000 pounds of trash. It lies adjacent to the railway tracks, and now contains azaleas, dogwoods, magnolias, cut-leaf maples, redbuds, rhododendron and viburnum.
