Капитолий штата Вермонт

Капито́лий шта́та Вермо́нт (англ. Vermont State House) находится в городе Монтпилиер (Montpelier) — столице штата Вермонт (State of Vermont). В нём проводит свои заседания легислатура — Генеральная ассамблея штата Вермонт, состоящая из Палаты представителей и Сената штата Вермонт. История и архитектура В 1777 году была образована независимая Республика Вермонт, а в 1791 году Вермонт вошёл в состав Соединённых Штатов Америки в качестве 14-го штата. До 1807 года у легислатуры (Генеральной ассамблеи) Вермонта не было специального места для заседаний — в этот период были проведены 46 сессий в 14 различных городах. В 1805 году было решено, что местом пребывания легислатуры штата будет город Монтпилиер, а в 1808 году был построен первый Капитолий штата Вермонт, который представлял из себя трёхэтажное деревянное здание, строительство которого обошлось в 9 тысяч долларов. Второй Капитолий штата Вермонт был построен в 1833—1838 годах по проекту архитектора Эмми Бернема Янга (1798—1874). Его строительство обошлось в 132 тысячи долларов. В январе 1857 года в Капитолии случился пожар, связанный с системой отопления, основанной на сжигании древесины. Внутренняя часть Капитолия выгорела практически полностью, остались только гранитные стены и портик. Капитолий был восстановлен к 1859 году, на том же месте, по проекту архитектора Томаса Силлоуэя, схожему с проектом Янга. Его называют третьим Капитолием штата Вермонт, хотя с точки зрения исторической ценности здания указываются даты строительства второго Капитолия. 30 декабря 1970 года Капитолий штата Вермонт был включён в Национальный реестр исторических мест США (под номером 70000739) в качестве национального исторического памятника США.

Prentis House

The Prentis House, built in 1773 in Hadley, Massachusetts, by the Dickinson family, is typical of the indigenous style of saltbox architecture that developed in New England during the Colonial period and remained in use, particularly in rural areas, through the American Revolution. The Prentis House was relocated to the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont, and furnished with 17th and 18th century period furniture and decorative arts. Saltbox architecture developed as builders devised a simple way to enlarge a two-story frame building. The term "saltbox" refers to the structure's characteristic asymmetrical roofline that extends on one side from the peak of the roof to the first floor, thus resembling the profile of an early wooden salt container. Builders would typically position a saltbox structure so that the extended roof faced north, diminishing the impact of winter winds, while the façade windows faced south, collecting warmth from the sun. Typical of the style, Prentis House is built around a massive central chimney. Seven flues meet on the second floor in a huge beehive-shaped formation before the chimney narrows again at the roofline. References External links Shelburne Museum website
Pulp Mill Covered Bridge

The Pulp Mill Covered Bridge, also called the Paper Mill Covered Bridge, is a wooden covered bridge that crosses Otter Creek between Middlebury and Weybridge, Vermont on Seymour Street. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. History The bridge is of Burr arch design. Around 1860, the original Burr arches were removed, and laminated ones added to King post trusses, changing the bridge type to a King post with Burr arch design. This bridge has many distinctions. It is one of only seven double-barreled (two lane) covered bridges in the country, one of only two in the State of Vermont (the Museum Covered Bridge being the other), and the only still carrying regular traffic. It is also the oldest covered bridge in Vermont, and one of the oldest in the country. The exact age of the bridge is in question. A sign on the bridge states it was built between 1808 and 1820. Covered Bridge expert Jan Lewandosky has placed the year of construction at approximately 1850 based on his search of Minutes of the Selectboard of the Town of Middlebury, and his voluminous knowledge of covered bridge construction. In 1850 the Town of Middlebury sent a person to Essex, Vermont, to examine a recently completed Burr Arch bridge, unfortunately the design was not copied correctly leading to the design flaws. Improvements The bridge was originally built as a single span but inherent design problems, and heavy use, has driven almost constant improvements. Amongst those improvements was the addition of two piers in the creek effectively dividing the bridge into 3 spans. A non-structural improvement was the addition of a walkway on the outside of the bridge by the Towns of Weybridge and Middlebury. Several other rounds of repairs have been made and chronicled extensively at the Vermont Bridges website. The Pulp Mill bridge was closed from January 2, 2012 until November 9, 2012 for rehabilitation.

Richmond Congregational Church

The Richmond Congregational Church is a historic church at 20 Church Street in Richmond, Vermont, United States. Built in 1903-04, it is a significant local example of Colonial Revival architecture, designed by prominent Vermont architect Walter R. B. Willcox. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. The congregation is affiliated with the United Church of Christ; the minister is Rev. Katelyn Macrae. Architecture and history The Richmond Congregation Church stands in the town's main village, at the northwest corner of Church and Bridge Streets. It is a two-story wood frame structure, with a basically cruciform plan. The main gable is oriented to face Bridge Street, while flanking hip-roof sections extend to the sides. At the rear, a hyphen attached to the northwest corner joins the church to its parish hall. The exterior is finished in a combination of wooden shingles and vinyl siding that closely resembles wooden clapboards. At the southwest corner of the cross, a square tower rises to an open belvedere and a flared pyramidal roof. To its left is the main entrance, sheltered by a gable-roofed porch with clustered square columns. The main gable end has a large multi-section stained glass window, with Palladian-style flanking sash windows that also have stained elements, with a transom pane above the moving sashes. The church was built in 1903, during a period of significant growth in the town, occasioned by the recent construction of the Richmond Underwear Company factory. It was designed by Burlington architect Walter R.B. Willcox, then one of the few architects practicing in the state. Although the church has many fundamentally Colonial Revival features (including the porch architecture, basic cruciform symmetry, and the use of Palladian windows), it has often been classified as Queen Anne, owing to its asymmetrical appearance and mixed use of exterior finishes. The parish hall was added in 1984, and is in a sympathetic Colonial Revival style, designed by Burlington architect Donald Albertson.

Robert Frost Farm (Ripton, Vermont)

The Robert Frost Farm, also known as the Homer Noble Farm, is a National Historic Landmark in Ripton, Vermont. It is a 150-acre (61 ha) farm property off Vermont Route 125 in the Green Mountains where American poet Robert Frost (1874-1963) lived and wrote in the summer and fall months from 1939 until his death in 1963. The property, historically called the Homer Noble Farm, includes a nineteenth-century farmhouse and a rustic wooden writing cabin (where Frost often stayed). The property is now owned by Middlebury College. The grounds are open to the public during daylight hours. Description and history The Frost Farm is set about 3 miles (4.8 km) east of the center of Ripton, down an access road on the north side of Vermont Route 125. The 150-acre (61 ha) property is surrounded on three sides by the Green Mountain National Forest, and partially abuts Middlebury College's Bread Loaf Campus property. A cleared meadow, located in the western portion of the property, is where its buildings are located. The principal buildings are the 19th-century farmhouse, and a modest cabin in which Frost did most of his writing. The farmhouse is a 1+1⁄2-story wood frame clapboarded structure, and is set on the west side of the end of the access road. The cabin, a roughly square log structure with a gable roof, stands near the northern edge of the cleared area. It has a screened porch on the west side and a shed-roof woodshed to the north. Its interior is divided into a living area occupying the southern half, with the northern part taken up by a kitchen, bath, and two small bedrooms. The area between the cabin and the house is taken up by a small apple orchard established and tended by Frost. Southwest of the house is a small shed, and on the east side of the drive are the foundational remnants of a barn that was standing during Frost's ownership. Robert Frost (1874-1963) was one of the United States' most celebrated poets, publishing eleven volumes of poetry and winning four Pulitzer Prizes. Frost purchased this property in 1940, and lived here each summer and fall until his death. Five of his volumes were written here, most notably A Witness Tree, the 1943 Pulitzer Prize winner. In the cabin, where he did most of his writing, he kept an extensive collection of literature, which was donated by his family to the Jones Public Library of Amherst, Massachusetts. Frost's Morris Chair, originally in the cabin, is now on display at the Middlebury College Davis Family Library. The property was acquired by Middlebury College in 1966, which has maintained but not substantially improved it.

Seymour Lake (Vermont)

Seymour Lake is located in the town of Morgan in Orleans County, Vermont, United States, an area known as the Northeast Kingdom. The lake was named for Israel Seymour, one of the original grantees. Natives called it Namagonic ("salmon trout spearing place"). The lake is on a tributary of the Clyde River in Orleans County, Vermont. It is one of only two deep, cold, and oligotrophic lakes in the Clyde River system, the other being nearby Echo Lake. The closest major airport is located in Burlington, Vermont, located approximately 101 miles away. Dam The Seymour Lake Dam is used for hydroelectric power. Construction on the dam was completed in 1928, and was rebuilt in 2004. It has a normal surface area of 2.8 square miles (7.3 km2). It is owned by Citizens Utilities Company and is located in Charleston, Vermont. The dam is made of stone with a concrete core. The foundation is soil. The height is 12 feet (3.7 m) with a length of 75 feet (23 m). Maximum discharge is 85 cubic feet (2.4 m3) per second. Its capacity is 5,200 acre-feet (6,400,000 m3). Normal storage is 5,200 acre-feet (6,400,000 m3). It drains an area of 20.1875 square miles (52.285 km2). Fishing The lake is populated with bass, trout, perch and salmon. Ice fishing is popular on the lake in winter. Historically the lake had a population of rainbow smelt, which was absent as of 2021. Environmental protection The Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention Program of Seymour Lake was founded in 1999 for the protection against of Eurasian water milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum) and zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha), which have already infested many nearby lakes but have not been found in Seymour. Staffing is provided by greeters at the state fishing access, located in Morgan Center in the northeastern corner of the lake, to inspect watercraft from other water bodies, 7 days/week, 12 hours/day (13 on Saturdays) from Memorial Day until the end of fishing season (October 31), with a hot water Watercraft Decontamination Station Patrolers from the Vermont Invasive Patroller program examine the bottom of the lake for aquatic vegetation and identification of potential aquatic invasive species. Phosphorus levels had been increasing in the lake, but are now kept stable.

Rokeby (Ferrisburg, Vermont)

Rokeby Museum is a historic farm property and museum at 4334 United States Route 7 in Ferrisburgh, Vermont. The 90-acre (36 ha) property includes a 1780s farmstead, and eight agricultural outbuildings with permanent exhibits. Hiking trails cover more than 50 acres (20 ha) of the grounds. Rokeby is open from mid-May to mid-October each year. The property was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1997 for its association with Rowland T. Robinson, a Quaker and ardent abolitionist who openly sheltered escaped slaves at Rokeby as part of the Underground Railroad. Robinson's extensive correspondence is an essential archive giving insight into the practices of abolitionists and the operations of the railroad. Description and history Rokeby Museum is set on the east side of United States Route 7 in the rural community of Ferrisburgh. The central focus of the property is a cluster of buildings, including the 1780s main house, a smokehouse, hen house, outhouse, creamery, tool shed, and other agricultural buildings. The property also includes foundational remnants of a barn and a school. The main house is a two-story Federal style wood-frame structure, with an older 1+1⁄2-story frame Cape style ell attached to its rear. What is now the main block of the house was built in 1814; the ell was built as a freestanding house in the 1780s by the Dakin family, who cleared the land. In 1793, the property was purchased by Thomas Rowland Robinson, a Quaker from Newport, Rhode Island. For almost 200 years, the house was the home of the Robinson family, who were millers, farmers, abolitionists, authors, naturalists, and artists. In the 1830s and 1840s, under the auspices of Rowland Thomas Robinson, Rokeby served as a safe house along the Underground Railroad. Letters from the family of Rowland T. and Rachel Gilpin Robinson, devout Quakers and radical abolitionists, mention fugitive slaves by name and in some detail. The record of their correspondence gives an important view into the practices and methods of abolitionists and details about the operation of the Underground Railroad. Rowland Robinson, a son of Rowland T. and Rachael Robinson, spent most of his life at Rokeby and became a celebrated author. Rowland Robinson's daughter Rachael Robinson Elmer was raised at Rokeby and was a celebrated artist. Rokeby was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1997.

Salisbury Congregational Church

The Salisbury Congregational Church is a historic church in the village center of Salisbury, Vermont. Completed in 1842, it is fine local example of vernacular Greek Revival architecture. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. Description and history The Salisbury Congregational Church is centrally located in Salisbury's small village center, on the north side of Maple Run Road. It is a single story wood-frame structure, with a gable roof, clapboarded exterior, and limestone foundation. The building corners have narrow corner boards, which rise to a modest entablature. The front-facing gable is fully pedimented with a plain clapboarded interior. The facade is symmetrical, with tall sash windows flanking the central entrance. The entrance is in a slight recess, framed by pilasters rising to an entablature and projecting cornice. A multistage tower rises from the roof ridge, starting with a square stage, above which an octagonal stage has plain circular panels in four faces. The belfry is in the next stage, which is basically square, with louvered sides and chamfered corners decorated with paneled pilasters. A slender spire caps the structure. The interior retains many original period features, including box pews and the pulpit area. The church was built between 1840 and 1842 by Asahel Parsons, a local builder whose credits include churches in Middlebury. It is one of the prominent reminders of the town's 19th-century industrial past, having been built near the height of the town's importance as a regional mill center. Most of the materials for the church were locally produced: virgin timbers were milled in local mills, nails were forged at local ironworks, and a local historian claims its window glass also came from a glassworks operating at nearby Lake Dunmore.

Scribner Covered Bridge

The Scribner Covered Bridge, also known as the Mudgett Covered Bridge, is a covered bridge that carries Rocky Road across the Gihon River off State Route 100C in eastern Johnson, Vermont. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. It is one of a small number of Vermont's covered bridges that are the result of covering an existing open bridge. Description and history The Scribner Covered Bridge stands in a rural area of eastern Johnson, carrying Rocky Road across the Gihon River between Vermont Route 100C and Sinclair Road. It is a single-span queen post truss, 48 feet (15 m) long and 17.5 feet (5.3 m) wide, with a roadway width of 13.5 feet (4.1 m) (one lane). It is covered by a gabled metal roof, and its exterior is clad in vertical board siding, which extends around to the insides of the portals. On the sides, the siding ends short of the roof, leaving an open strip. The bridge rests on concrete abutments that date to 1960. The trusses are unusually short and lack internal bracing, and their corner joints have been reinforced with metal plates. The bridge's construction date and builder are not known. It has been determined that the bridge was originally an uncovered Pony truss bridge, due to the relatively low height of the queen post trusses and the discovery of supporting documents. In 1960, minor repairs were carried out and steel I beams were installed underneath the road deck.
