Gibbes Museum of Art

The Gibbes Museum of Art, formerly known as the Gibbes Art Gallery, is an art museum in Charleston, South Carolina. Established as the Carolina Art Association in 1858, the museum moved into a new Beaux Arts building at 135 Meeting Street, in the Charleston Historic District, in 1905. The Gibbes houses a premier collection of over 10,000 works of fine art, principally American works, many with a connection to Charleston or the South. The benefactor, James Shoolbred Gibbes, donated $100,000 to the Carolina Arts Association for the "erection of a suitable building for the exhibitions of paintings." The city did not receive the money until after the resolution of a will contest filed by nieces and nephews of Gibbes. Their case was heard in the state court of New York during 1900 and 1901. On December 6, 1901, the New York Supreme Court (the state's trial-level court) issued an opinion declaring that the gift to Charleston was valid. After receiving the money in 1903, the Association hired Frank Pierce Milburn to design the gallery. He planned a Tiffany-style dome, Doric columns, and pediment-capped windows and doors. Milburn completed the drawings of the building in mid-1903, and a drawing of the proposed building was published in the Charleston Evening Post on June 5, 1903. Notices were published seeking contractors' bids for the work starting in August 1903. In September 1903, H.T. Zacharias was selected as the contractor and received a contract for $73,370 for the building. Zacharias started work on September 28, 1903, removing the remains of the South Carolina Agricultural Hall that had occupied the lot. Although work on the foundations had begun already, a ceremony was held on December 8, 1903, to lay the cornerstone of the building at the northeast corner. The museum formally opened on April 11, 1905. The collection on display on the opening day included more than 300 pictures, many bronzes, and about 200 miniatures in addition to an "instructive collection" of Japanese prints. After closing in the early 21st century for an extensive two-year, $13.5 million renovation, the museum reopened to the public on May 28, 2016. In renovating the museum, the development teams used the original blueprints, discovered in the City of Charleston archives in 2008, to return the building to its 1905 Beaux Arts style layout. The first floor has classrooms, artist studios, lecture and event spaces, and a museum store. The rear reception area opens to the garden, part of Charleston's historic Gateway Walk founded by the Garden Club of Charleston. The entire ground floor of the museum is admission-free. The museum's collections include the work of numerous artists with connections to Charleston, including Charles Fraser, William Melton Halsey, Ned I.R. Jennings, Henrietta Johnston, Mary Roberts, Merton Simpson, and Jeremiah Theus. The museum also has collected photographs by George LaGrange Cook, including photographs taken after the 1886 Charleston earthquake.

William Seabrook House

The William Seabrook House, also known as the Seabrook is a plantation house built about 1810 on Edisto Island, South Carolina, United States, southwest of Charleston. It is located off Steamboat Landing Road Extension (South Carolina State Highway 10-768) close to Steamboat Creek about 0.7 mi (1.1 km) from Steam Boat Landing. It was named to the National Register of Historic Places on May 6, 1971. History William Seabrook was a Sea Island cotton planter and part-owner of the Edisto Island Ferry, which had a steamboat named the W. Seabrook. The house was built around 1810. His initials are on the ironwork of the front stairs. Tradition indicates that James Hoban, the architect of the White House, was the designer. William Seabrook died in about 1837. His widow lived in the house until 1854 or 1855. The house was purchased by J. Evans Eddings. At the end of the Civil War, the Sea Islands below Charleston were abandoned to the Union Army forces. The house was used for staff headquarters and provost. After the war ended, freed slaves temporarily took refuge in the house. Around 1875 it was sold. At some point, Judge Smith purchased the house. Later, in 1929, the house was bought and restored by Donald D. Dodge. Architecture This house has been described as a classic plan for houses on Edisto. It is an Early Republic or Federal style, 2+1⁄2-story frame house on a raised basement. It has a gabled roof with dormers. It has a double portico with pediment with a semielliptical fanlight, columns, and arched entablature. Double stairways rise to the first floor portico. The main door has sidelights and a semielliptical fanlight. The windows on the main and second floors are nine over nine lights. The house originally had four rooms on the main floor divided by a central hall that extends to the smaller garden portico. Double stairways to the second floor go up a landing over the garden portico door. Additional pictures are available. A floor plan and photographs taken before its restoration are also available.

Centrale nucléaire de Virgil Summer

La centrale nucléaire de Virgil C. Summer est située près de Jenkinsville dans le comté de Fairfield en Caroline du Sud (États-Unis). Description La centrale nucléaire de Virgil Summer dispose d'un réacteur à eau pressurisée (REP) construit par Westinghouse et fournissant 986 MWe. Celui-ci a été mis en service en 1982 pour 40 ans, puis 60 ans (jusqu'en 2042). La source de refroidissement provient du réservoir Monticello qui alimente une unité de pompage. L'exploitant est la compagnie South Carolina Electric & Gas Company qui est une filiale de SCANA et qui est également propriétaire aux deux tiers de la centrale. Le complément des parts appartient à l'Autorité de service public de la Caroline du Sud. Ce site héberge aussi un réacteur de recherche désaffecté, le CVTR (Carolinas-Virginia Test Reactor) Projet d'extension abandonné Une demande est faite en 2006 auprès de la commission de réglementation nucléaire des États-Unis pour construire sur ce site un deuxième et éventuellement un troisième réacteur du même type. Le 30 mars 2012, la commission de réglementation nucléaire des États-Unis autorise la construction de deux réacteurs AP1000 dont la mise en service est alors prévue pour 2017 et 2018. En août 2015, Areva signe un contrat avec South Carolina Electric and Gas pour fabriquer un couvercle intégré qui sera installé au-dessus de la cuve d'un réacteur nucléaire avant 2017. Le 31 juillet 2017, les compagnies d'énergies à l'origine du projet (Santee Cooper (en) et South Carolina Electric & Gas - SCE&G) annoncent son abandon en raison d'une explosion des coûts de construction, laquelle a d'ailleurs contribué à la faillite de Westinghouse.

Centrale nucleare Virgil C. Summer

La centrale nucleare Virgil C. Summer è una centrale nucleare americana, situata nella Contea di Fairfield, vicino ad Jenkinsville, nella Carolina del Sud. La centrale è intitolata a Virgil Clifton Summer, presidente della SCE&G. L'impianto è composto da un'unica unità PWR da 966 MW Espansione dell'impianto Il 27 marzo 2008 la South Carolina Electric & Gas ha fatto richiesta alla Nuclear Regulatory Commission per una licenza combinata di costruzione e esercizio (COL) per costruire due reattori ad acqua pressurizzata AP1000 da 1.100 MW nel sito. Il reattore 2, è il primo reattore effettivamente iniziato negli Stati Uniti d'America negli ultimi tre decenni. L'identico reattore di Vogtle 3, iniziato a costruire a marzo 2012, non è ancora ufficialmente classificato come in costruzione, perché le zone nucleari non hanno ancora avuto l'approvazione finale, mentre erano in avanzato stato di costruzione le parti non nucleari dell'impianto. A fine luglio 2017, la costruzione è stata abbandonata a causa della richiesta di fallimento del venditore.

АЭС Ви-Си Саммер

АЭС Ви-Си Саммер (англ. Virgil C. Summer Nuclear Generating Station) — действующая атомная электростанция на юго-востоке США. Станция расположена на берегу водохранилища Монтиселло в округе Фэрфилд штата Южная Каролина, в 27 милях на северо-запад от города Колумбия. Названа в честь Вирджила Клифтона Саммерса, бывшего генерального директора и председателя South Carolina Electric and Gas. В 2012 году была получена лицензия на постройку двух новых блоков АЭС (2-го и 3-го) с новейшими реакторами AP1000 от компании Westinghouse. Однако запредельная сложность, дороговизна и не предусмотренные проектом 4 года прохождения национальных регуляторов для получения лицензии на строительство и эксплуатацию АЭС стали фатальными для АЭС. Удорожание и затяжка проекта из-за требований американских регуляторов привели к тому, что в марте 2017 г. Toshiba/Westighouse не выдержала перерасходов по проектам строительства АЭС Вогтль (Vogtle, где аналогичные блоки были достроены) и V.C. Summer, и в итоге Westinghouse пошла на банкротство. 31 июля 2017 года компании-владельцы АЭС VC Summer объявили о невозможности достройки блоков 2 и 3. В январе 2025 года компания-владелец объявила о начале приема предложений по достройке двух частично построенных энергоблоков АЭС VC Summer или других альтернативных вариантов.

Hagood-Mauldin House

The Hagood-Mauldin House is a property listed on the National Register of Historic Places located in Pickens, South Carolina. The house was originally constructed for James Earle Hagood ca.1856 in the town of Old Pickens but in 1868 when the Pickens District was divided into Oconee County and Pickens County, the house was disassembled, boards and beams numbered, and reassembled at its present location in the town of Pickens. The original house was constructed with log beams and joists pegged together. The exterior was sided with slat boards and the roof was constructed with cedar wood shingles on open wood slats. The first addition to the house was made shortly after it was moved in 1868, when a dining room connected to the rear kitchen house, separated by a breezeway, was constructed. A second addition in 1886 expanded the front parlor and rear dining room and also created a covered side entry porch, a bathroom on the north side of the house and added new fireplaces serve the new rooms. A third addition was made in 1904 which expanded the front porch to include a covered driveway as well as enhancing the interior living spaces with Victorian trimwork and drywall. A wood parapet was added to the porch and the fluted Ionic columns were added, creating the Classical Revival style of the house that still remains. The house was owned by James Earle Hagood, a clerk for the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina until his death in 1904. It was then owned by his daughter, Frances Hagood Mauldin and her husband, Judge Thomas Joab Mauldin who completed the 1904 addition and built a matching building on the property used as a law office. The house is now home to the Irma Morris Museum of Fine Arts and is owned by the Pickens County Historical Society.

Shoeless Joe Jackson Museum

The "Shoeless" Joe Jackson Museum and Library was first opened to the public on June 21, 2008. Located across from Fluor Field in Greenville, South Carolina, the five-room brick house where Shoeless Joe Jackson lived and died contains a few of his personal belongings and over 2,000 baseball-related books. In 2015, the Shoeless Joe Jackson Museum formally petitioned Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred for Jackson's reinstatement to baseball, because Jackson had "more than served his sentence" in the 95 years since his banishment by Kenesaw Landis. Manfred denied the request after an official review. "The results of this work demonstrate to me that it is not possible now, over 95 years since those events took place and were considered by Commissioner Landis, to be certain enough of the truth to overrule Commissioner Landis' determinations," he wrote. The museum allows members of the public to visit on Saturdays and conducts private tours during the week. While in Greenville, many visitors to the museum also visit "Shoeless" Joe Jackson's grave located in Woodlawn Memorial Park near the Bob Jones University campus. When visiting the grave, members of the public leave baseball-related equipment such as baseballs, gloves, and cleats. In March 2022, the Museum opened a community book box at the site of the former Bolton Street Park in Savannah, Georgia by Fairmount Baptist Church. Shoeless Joe Jackson had played for the 1909 Savannah Indians and won the league batting title playing his games at Bolton Street Park. References
