ГЕС Дуглас

ГЕС Дуглас — гідроелектростанція у штаті Теннессі (Сполучені Штати Америки). Використовує ресурс із Френч-Брод-Рівер, лівого витоку річки Теннессі, яка дренує Велику долину у Південних Аппалачах та після повороту на північний захід впадає ліворуч до Огайо, котра в свою чергу є лівою притокою Міссісіпі (басейн Мексиканської затоки). В межах проекту Френч-Брод-Рівер перекрили бетонною греблею висотою 61 метр та довжиною 520 метрів, яка потребувала 230 тис. м3 матеріалу. Вона утримує витягнуте по долині річки на 69 км водосховище з площею поверхні 111 км2 та об'ємом 1,8 млрд м3, з яких 1,33 млрд м3 можуть використовуватись для протиповеневих заходів. Пригреблевий машинний зал обладнаний чотирма турбінами типу Френсіс — двома потужністю по 31 МВт (використовують напір у 30 метрів) та двома з показником по 26 МВт (напір 24 метри). Відпрацьована на станції вода прямує до злиття витоків Теннессі, після чого потрапляє на ГЕС Fort Loudon — верхню станцію теннессійського каскаду. Примітки

Университет штата Теннесси

Университет штата Теннесси (TSU) (англ. Tennessee State University) — государственный исследовательский университет штата Теннесси, расположенный в городе Нашвилл. Единственное в штате исторически чёрное высшее учебное заведение. История Университет был первоначально организован в 1912 году как Сельскохозяйственная и промышленная нормальная школа штата теннесси для негров (англ. Tennessee Agricultural & Industrial State Normal School for Negroes). Начал принимать студентов с 19 июня 1912 года. Статус учебного заведения был повышен до четырёхлетнего колледжа в 1922 году, а в 1925 году его название было изменено на Сельскохозяйственный и промышленный нормальный колледж штата Теннесси (англ. Tennessee Agricultural & Industrial State Normal College). В 1927 году переименован в Сельскохозяйственный и промышленный колледж штата Теннесси. Колледжу был присвоен статус университета в 1951 году, и в 1958 году Государственным советом по образованию штата Теннесси он был переименован в Сельскохозяйственный и промышленный университет Теннесси. В 1968 году законодательное собрание штата переименовало высшее учебное заведение в Университет штата Теннесси. Современный Университет штата Теннесси существует в результате постановления суда от 1 июля 1979 года о слиянии Университета штата Теннесси и бывшего традиционно белого учреждения Университета штата Теннесси в Нэшвилле. Это привело к строительству здания кампуса, известного сегодня как Avon Williams Campus. Основанный в 1912 году, Университет штата Теннесси резко вырос из небольшого колледжа до достаточно крупного учебного заведения (до двух кампусов): 500 акров главного кампуса и в центре Avon Williams кампус, который расположен в центре города Нашвилл, недалеко от Капитолия. Количество студентов — более чем 9000, которые представляют 45 штатов и 45 стран. Образовательные программы В Университете штата Теннесси можно получить образование по 38 степеням бакалавра и 22-х степеней магистров. Также можно получить степень доктора биологических наук, психологии, государственного управления, информационных систем вычислительной техники, управления и надзора и др.

Castner–Knott Building

The Castner–Knott Building is a historic building in Nashville, Tennessee. Location It is located on the corner of Church Street and 7th Avenue North in Nashville, Tennessee, at 616-618 Church Street. History The Castner–Knott Building was built in 1906 for Charles Castner and William Knott's Castner–Knott Dry Goods Company. Founded in 1898, the store moved from its original location on 5th Avenue in what was the start of the city's westward expansion along Church Street. At that time, Castner–Knott was a single five-story building with a 111-foot front at 618 Church Street. Castner–Knott leased a portion of the building at 616 Church in 1933, a separate five-story building constructed in 1911, with 28 feet fronting Church Street and as deep as the 618 Church building at 146 feet, adjacent to Capitol Boulevard. The top two floors were connected between 618 and 616 for Castner–Knott in 1936, the bottom three floors were connected in 1958–1959. The complex was renovated in 1958–1959, with a small addition on the rear added in 1975. An additional renovation was completed in the late 1990s, after Castner–Knott closed its downtown store in 1996. The structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places listings in Davidson County, Tennessee on August 20, 1999. References

Greenwood Cemetery (Nashville, Tennessee)

Greenwood Cemetery is situated at 1428 Elm Hill Pike, Nashville in Davidson County, Tennessee, United States. When opened in 1888, it was only the second cemetery in Nashville for African Americans. History The cemetery was founded by local pastor and businessman Preston Taylor in 1888. Taylor had been born a slave in Louisiana in 1849. He settled in Nashville in 1884, where he became a well known minister and businessman. In 1887 he conceived the idea of establishing a cemetery for African Americans on 37 acres (15 ha) of land near Buttermilk Ridge at Elm Hill Road. He purchased the land in 1887 for $30,000, and in 1888 he established Greenwood Cemetery. Its purpose was to provide low cost, first class burial plots for African-American residents of Nashville. Concurrently he established a mortuary, Taylor Funeral Company, at 449 North Cherry Street, now Fourth Avenue (not related to today's Taylor Funeral Home of Nashville). Taylor operated the cemetery himself until his death in 1931, bequeathing it to the National Christian Missionary Convention of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). The cemetery remains a nonprofit organization. (Taylor also established Greenwood Park, the first park in Nashville open to African-Americans, in 1904.) Notable interments When Taylor died in 1931 he was interred at Greenwood after a full week of memorial activities. His wife Georgia Gordon Taylor is also buried there. Other notable individuals interred there include Arna Bontemps, William Edmondson (sculptor), Charles S. Johnson, John Merritt, James C. Napier, DeFord Bailey, Marshall Keeble, Mattie E. Coleman, Halle Tanner Dillon Johnson, and John Houston Burrus. See also List of cemeteries in the United States References External links Official website Greenwood Cemetery at Find a Grave
Union Station (Columbia, Tennessee)

Union Station, also known as Columbia Railway Depot is an historic train depot in the city of Columbia, Maury County, Tennessee. The depot was completed in 1905 by the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis Railway (NC&StL) and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad (LN) as a union station. The building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places listings in Maury County, Tennessee on October 23, 1986. History The Duck River Valley Narrow Gauge Railroad (NGRR) was chartered in 1870 and began construction in Columbia in 1874. By 1876, six miles were completed with the first 1.75 miles ran as a dual gauge on the then Nashville and Decatur (Louisville and Nashville) main line. By 1877 NGRR offered rail service from Columbia to Lewisburg (20 miles) and to Petersburg (34 miles) by 1879. The company ran into financial difficulties and in 1879 leased the tracks to NC&StL. The line was completed to Fayetteville (48 miles) on March 16, 1882, where there was a break-of-gauge. NC&StL purchased the line on March 21, 1888, converted the entire tracks to standard gauge by January 1, 1889, and the tracks were renamed the Columbia spur. Union Station NC&StL and LN built Union Station in 1905, and the depot was shared with LN until 1945 when the Columbia to Lewisburg tracks were abandoned. The Lewisburg to Fayetteville section was abandoned in 1961. Union Station was listed on the Tennessee Preservation Trust, "Ten in Tennessee" list of endangered properties in 2009. The building was used for offices and apartments but became vacant in 1983. David and Debra Hill bought the property in foreclosure in 2012 with plans on restoration References
Seven Islands State Birding Park

Seven Islands State Birding Park is a state park in Knox County, Tennessee located east of Knoxville near Kodak along the French Broad River. The park was created for birdwatching. The diverse grassland landscapes and the river create a habitat for more than 180 species of birds. The park was opened on July 1, 2014 by state and local officials. History For much of the 20th century, the park's land was part of a farm operated by the Kelly family, whose name is still attached to the river bend and the park's main access road, and whose farm house is still standing on the property. Preservationists gradually acquired the land and donated it to the Knox County Parks and Recreation Department. The Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge was created and initially managed by the Parks and Recreation Department and the Seven Islands Foundation, and later by the Legacy Parks Foundation. The refuge became Tennessee's 56th state park on July 1, 2014. The park's name refers to a string of small islands and shoals in the adjacent river. Birds Species of birds found within the park include purple martins, tree swallows, common yellowthroats, yellow-breasted chats, summer tanagers, blue grosbeaks, and indigo buntings. Sparrows are common in winter, namely the field, Savannah, song, swamp, white-throated, and white-crowned species. Barn owls have been known to frequent the old barns in the area. Waterfowl include Canada geese and mallards. Activities Birdwatching is why the park was created but it also includes the following: 2 small canoe/kayak boat launch sites. 8 miles (13 km) of hiking trails. Biking and fishing may also be done at the park. Fishing can be done along the French Broad River. Location The park is located approximately 18 miles (29 km) east of Knoxville, Tennessee. The park is located along the French Broad River. The park's address is 2809 Kelly Lane, Kodak, Tennessee 37764. The park can be accessed from Interstate 40 via exit 402 (Midway Road).

Shelbyville Courthouse Square Historic District

The Shelbyville Courthouse Square Historic District is a historic district in Shelbyville, Tennessee, centered on the Bedford County Courthouse Square. The courthouse square was laid out in 1810 as a central block, bounded by four streets and surrounded by a grid of square city blocks of the same size. Merchants and tradesmen located their businesses on the blocks surrounding the courthouse square. Lots with street frontage facing the courthouse initially sold for prices 40 times higher than land near the edge of the town grid. This design, known as the "Shelbyville square" or "Shelbyville plan", was the prototype for numerous other public squares created throughout the 19th century in towns in southern Middle Tennessee, other parts of the southeastern United States, the American Midwest, and Texas. Five different Bedford County courthouse buildings have stood on the courthouse square. The first courthouse was completed in 1810. A new structure replaced it in 1813. That second courthouse was destroyed by a tornado on May 31, 1830. The third courthouse building was completed in 1833 and stood until 1863, when it was burned down (apparently accidentally) by Confederate Army forces occupying Shelbyville. It was replaced in 1873 by the county's fourth courthouse. In 1934, a lynch mob burned down the fourth courthouse after learning that the young African-American man they wanted to hang had been taken from the county jail and transported to another county for his protection. The current courthouse building is Bedford County's fifth courthouse. It is a Classical Revival building designed in 1935 by the Nashville architectural firm of Marr and Holman. Italianate and Romanesque architectural styles predominate among the historic commercial buildings facing the streets around the square. The Gunter Building, built in 1927 on the west side of the square, is designed in the Art Deco style. The historic district was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. References
Chattanooga Public Library

The Chattanooga Public Library (est. 1905) of Chattanooga, Tennessee, is a municipal public library overseen by the city government. As of 1928 it ran the Hamilton County public library. In 2013 it opened a makerspace. The current building, located on Broad Street, opened in 1976 and was designed in the Brutalist fashion, garnering Derthick, Henley & Wilkerson Architects a Gulf States Regional AIA award. The library system was previously known as the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Bicentennial Library. The name of the institution was changed back to the Chattanooga Public Library in 2011 as a sales tax agreement between the city and county expired and the library's status reverted to being funded by the city and governed by a board. A former building of the library system is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as Old Library Building. It was a Carnegie library built in 1904. As the city grew and the needs of the population changed, the Carnegie library building was replaced by one on the corner of McCallie Avenue and Douglas Street. In use until 1976 for the library, it is now Fletcher Hall, housing the Gary W. Rollins College of Business, a part of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
