Northfield Falls Covered Bridge

The Northfield Falls Covered Bridge, also called the Station Covered Bridge, is a wooden covered bridge that carries Cox Brook Road across the Dog River in Northfield, Vermont. Built in 1872, this Town lattice truss bridge is one of five surviving covered bridges in the town, and one of two that are visible from each other (the other is the Lower Cox Brook Covered Bridge). It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. Description and history The Northfield Falls Covered Bridge is located in the village of Northfield Falls of northern Northfield, a short way west of Vermont Route 12 on Cox Brook Road. It spans the Dog River in an east–west orientation, and is located just a few hundred feet east of the Lower Cox Brook Covered Bridge, which spans the eponymous brook. It is a single-span Town lattice truss, which has been reinforced by the introduction of a central pier. It is 137 feet (42 m) long and 19.5 feet (5.9 m) wide, with a roadway width of 16 feet (4.9 m) (one lane). It is covered by a metal gabled roof, and its exterior is sheathed in vertical board siding. The siding extends around a short way inside the portals to shelter the ends of the trusses, and extends upward only partway to the roof eave, leaving an open strip between them. The bridge rests on stone abutments faced in concrete. The bridge was built in 1872; its designed is unknown. It is one of five surviving bridges in the community, three of which are found on Cox Brook Road in the span of 0.25 miles (0.40 km). In 1963 the bridge deck was strengthened by the addition of 4 steel Ɪ-beams underneath, and the unmortared stone abutments were faced with concrete.

Ohavi Zedek

Ohavi Zedek (Hebrew for "Lovers of Justice") is a Conservative congregation and synagogue located at 188 North Prospect Street, in Burlington, Vermont, in the United States. History Founded in 1876, it is the oldest Jewish congregation in Vermont. The synagogue's original building, Old Ohavi Zedek Synagogue, a brick Gothic Revival structure erected in 1885, is among the oldest synagogue buildings still standing in the United States. The building, at the corner of Archibald and Hyde Streets in Burlington, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The congregation moved to its present location on North Prospect Street in 1952. The Archibald Street building is now occupied by Congregation Ahavath Gerim. Today, Ohavi Zedek serves as home to a historic mural, known as the "Lost Mural", painted originally in 1910 by Ben Zion Black on the ceiling of another of Burlington's former synagogues, Chai Adam. The mural was moved to its new home in 2015. Since, the mural has been restored and is a unique surviving example of Eastern European synagogue art. In 2019, the building was vandalized with inflammatory posters by Patriot Front. See also Oldest synagogues in the United States References External links Official website
Old Stone House Museum

The Old Stone House Museum & Historic Village is a museum run by the Orleans County Historical Society in Brownington, Vermont. The Old Stone House at the heart of the village is a part of the Brownington Village Historic District, a district of ten historic buildings added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. History The Old Stone House, or Athenian Hall, was built in 1836 by Alexander Twilight, the nation's first African-American college graduate. Twilight was the minister of the Brownington Congregational Church and the principal of the Orleans County Grammar School. The Orleans County Grammar School was the only high school in the county, which required many students to travel long distances for their education. They boarded with families in town, including Twilight's. Athenian Hall was built to accommodate the larger number of students attending the Grammar School. Twilight pressed his board of trustees for a larger building but failed to receive support from the majority. He alienated many of the trustees by his adamancy, and the building was left completely to Twilight. In 1834, he laid out a foundation plan for land donated by Cyrus Eaton across the road from his house. It called for a four-story granite building measuring 26 by 66 feet (7.9 by 20.1 m). Over the following two years the present stone house was erected following the lines and general appearance of a similar building, quite possibly Painter Hall at Middlebury College; however, detailed information is not available on how the granite structure was built. Twilight began building in 1834 and finished two years later. From 1836 to 1859, the building was used as a dormitory for school children, boys and girls. Due to diminishing school enrollment Athenian Hall was closed for good in 1859. For a brief time Mercy Ladd Merrill Twilight continued to live there with a few boarders. She then continued alone until she moved to Derby in 1865. When she died in 1878 she was buried next to her husband in Brownington. The building stayed vacant until in 1918 when the Stone House was put up for auction. A representative of the railroad in the state of Vermont bid on the structure with the hopes of using the granite stones for bridge abutments. The Orleans County Historical Society bid at the price of $500 (the equivalent of $10702 in current dollars) and won the auction. The building was opened as a museum in 1925. The attached barn was torn down in the 1920s. The building has four floors with twenty-two rooms of exhibits. It is dedicated to the history of the last two centuries in Orleans County, Vermont, and to the life of Alexander Twilight, the first African-American college graduate in the U.S. and state legislator.

Paper Mill Village Bridge

The Paper Mill Village Bridge, also called the Paper Mill Bridge or Bennington Falls Covered Bridge, is a wooden covered bridge that carries Murphy Road across the Walloomsac River northwest of Bennington, Vermont. Built in 1889, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. Description and history The Paper Mill Village Bridge is located adjacent to a former paper mill building, located on the south side of State Route 67A, just south of the campus of Bennington College, northwest of downtown Bennington. It is a single-span Town lattice truss structure, 125 feet (38 m) long and 18.5 feet (5.6 m) wide, with a roadway width of 15 feet (4.6 m) (one lane). It rests on stone abutments that have been partially faced in concrete. The sides are clad in vertical board siding, while the portal ends are finished in horizontal flushboard siding. The side walls only rise part of the way to the roof, which shelters the upper portions of the trusses. A number of the truss members have been doubled to strengthen them, and there are also additional floor beams. The Paper Mill Bridge was built in 1889 by Charles F. Sears, whose family was prominent in the local bridge-building business. The bridge, which is the longest covered bridge in Bennington County, is similar in design to the nearby Silk Covered Bridge, whose design is sometimes attributed to Sears' father Benjamin. It was rebuilt in 2000.

Pico Mountain

Pico Mountain Ski Resort is a ski area located in Killington, Vermont, United States. Established in 1937, it was one of the first commercial ski resorts in the state. The base of the resort is located on the northwest side of Pico Peak on U.S. Route 4 approximately 9 miles (14 kilometers) northeast of Rutland, Vermont, and 3 mi (5 km) north of Killington Peak. The site lies just inside the town line that separates Killington from the Town of Mendon, to its west. The mountain now features 58 trails and 7 lifts with a 1,967-foot (600-meter) vertical drop. History Pico first opened as Pico Peak on Thanksgiving day, in 1937. The first T-bar lift in the US began operation there in 1940. The Mead family founded the ski resort. Their daughter, Andrea Mead-Lawrence, won a pair of gold medals in skiing in the 1952 Winter Olympics in Oslo, Norway. Pico soon began expansion, installing its first chairlift in 1954 and expanding to the current summit in 1965. By its 50th anniversary in 1987, Pico had become a major resort in the region with high speed quads, snowmaking, and a new sportcenter. In 1996, the resort went into receivership and was bought by the nearby Killington Mountain Resort and Ski Area in December 1997. However, ski runs have not yet been cut to connect the two resorts. The only access is along a sewer line that runs from Killington to Rutland, which allows for equipment (snowmobiles and groomers) to go from one area to the other. Most passes purchased for Killington are valid at Pico, but Pico passes are not valid at Killington. Pico celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2013. Pico Mountain is home to a Vermont Ski and Snowboard Museum exhibit, located on the third level of the main base lodge. Skiing the mountain The mountain contains 468 acres (189 hectares) of skiable land on 58 trails of varying difficulty, divided into several lift areas. The trails from atop the golden express cater mainly to families and other beginner and intermediate riders. The trails which run from the peak of the mountain are generally steeper and mainly black diamond trails used by experts. They are reached via the summit express, which loads at mid mountain. Another area of Pico is Outpost. This region relies primarily on natural snow and is served by the outpost double, Pico's oldest lift. This area has seen less use in recent years. A very challenging area known as "Little Pico", has some of the toughest terrain. Pico also contains a freestyle terrain park, Triple slope, which contains small and medium size features.

Vermont State House

Das Vermont State House in Montpelier ist der Sitz der Regierung des Bundesstaates Vermont. Mit seiner Blattgoldkuppel vor dem Hintergrund des wechselnden Blätterdaches eines nah gelegenen Parks gilt es bei vielen Touristen als das hübscheste Regierungsgebäude der Vereinigten Staaten. Ursprünglich tagten die Abgeordneten Vermonts alternierend nach dem Rotationsprinzip in verschiedenen Städten. 1805 befanden die Deputierten, dass es nun Zeit sei, aufgrund der zentralen Lage der Stadt und des preiswerten Baugrundes mit dem Wandern des Regierungssitzes aufzuhören. So entschieden die Abgeordneten ab sofort in Montpelier zu tagen. Dies wurde unter zwei Bedingungen beschlossen. Erstens, Montpelier musste das Land für das Kapitol zur Verfügung stellen. Zweitens, das State Capitol musste bis September 1808 fertiggestellt werden. Thomas Davis, Sohn des ersten permanenten Siedler von Montpelier, Col. Jacob Davis, stellte das Land zur Verfügung, und das erste Parlamentsgebäude wurde zu einem Preis von 9.000 $ gebaut. Nachdem das erste Parlament langsam zu klein wurde, wurde ein neues gebaut. Das zweite Parlament wurde von Ammi Young entworfen und mit einem Baupreis von 132.000 $ 1838 fertiggestellt. Auch eine Feuersbrunst in einer kalten Januarnacht 1857, die den beeindruckenden Nachfolgebau von 1838 bis auf die Granitmauern und den Portikus zerstörte, konnte die Vermonter nicht davon abhalten, auf deren Basis das heute bestehende Kapitolsgebäude zu errichten. Die neuen Baupläne basierten auf denen von Young, jedoch wurde der Maßstab vergrößert und die Ornamente im zur damaligen Zeit populären Renaissancestil gebaut. Dieses Kapitol wurde innerhalb von zweieinhalb Jahren für 150.000 $ gebaut. Es wurde 1859 fertiggestellt und in den Jahren 1888, 1900 und 1987 ausgebaut. Der Senatssaal wird nach dem Bekunden vieler Experten als der schönste Innenraum des Staates angesehen. Im Dezember 1970 erhielt das State House den Status eines National Historic Landmark zuerkannt und wurde als Bauwerk in das National Register of Historic Places aufgenommen. Einzelnachweise Weblinks

Campidoglio (Montpelier)

Il Campidoglio di Montpelier (in inglese Vermont State House) è la sede governativa dello Stato del Vermont, negli Stati Uniti d'America. Infatti in questo palazzo ha sede l'Assemblea generale del Vermont, composta dalla Camera dei rappresentanti e dal Senato. L'attuale edificio fu completato nel 1859 dall'architetto Thomas Silloway e costruito in stile neoclassico. Storia Il primo Campidoglio fu costruito tra il 1805 e il 1809, anno in cui fu inaugurato, fu costruito nel luogo in cui poi sorse l'edificio, inaugurato nel 1918, in cui ha sede la Corte Suprema del Vermont. Nel 1833 si decise di edificare una nuova sede per il Parlamento statale e si scelse il luogo in cui sorge l'edificio attuale. Il secondo Campidoglio, costruito tra il 1833 e il 1838, fu progettato dall'architetto Ammi Young, autore del progetto della sede del Dipartimento del Tesoro degli Stati Uniti, e rappresentava una rinascita dello stile greco classico, ispirandosi nella struttura al Tempio di Efesto ad Atene. L'edificio era su due piani a pianta cruciforme sormontata al centro da una cupola ribassata, realizzato in marmo grigio di Barre e con un portico dorico anteriore. Nel 1857 l'edificio fu vittima di un incendio da cui si salvò soltanto il portico dorico, presente nell'edificio attuale. Nello stesso anno si iniziò la ricostruzione su progetto di Thomas Silloway, che recuperò il portico e parti delle mura granitiche, aggiunse un'ulteriore campata di finestre su entrambi i lati e alzò la cupola (struttura di legno coperta da fogli di rame), forse per imitare la struttura della cupola del Campidoglio di Washington, che in quel periodo era in costruzione. La cupola e il tetto attuali erano in origine dipinti di rosso terracotta per imitare le tegole toscane, e la stessa nel XX secolo fu dorata. Negli anni '80 e fino al 1994 l'edificio fu ristrutturato dall'architetto David Schütz e da un comitato locale.
