Elizabeth Furnace

Elizabeth Furnace was a blast furnace in the Shenandoah Valley that was used to create pig iron from 1836 to 1888 using Passage Creek for water power. Iron ore was mined nearby, purified in the furnace, and then pig iron was transported over the Massanutten Mountain to the South Fork of the Shenandoah River for forging in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. The road used to transport this iron is still used today by hikers climbing to the top of the Massanutten Mountain via the Massanutten Trail. Much of the original stone structure still exists, as well as a restored cabin, and an outdoor recreation area. Elizabeth Furnace Recreation Area The Elizabeth Furnace Recreation Area, located in George Washington National Forest just north of Fort Valley, Virginia, consists of three main areas: the group camping area, the picnic area and the family camping area. The group camping area, located at 38.932424°N 78.321168°W﻿ / 38.932424; -78.321168, includes fire rings and open pit toilets.

Ellen Glasgow House

The Ellen Glasgow House, also known as the Branch-Glasgow House, is a historic house at 1 West Main Street in Richmond, Virginia. Built in 1841, it is nationally significant as the home of writer Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945) from 1887 until her death. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1971. Description and history The Ellen Glasgow House is located in Richmond's Monroe Ward neighborhood, at the southwest corner of Foushee Street. It is a three-story stuccoed brick structure, with a hip roof. A narrow ell extends to the rear, and a porch extends across the rest of the rear. The main entrance is centered on the northern facade, sheltered by a porch supported by Greek Revival Doric columns. The interior is laid out with public rooms on the ground floor, with kitchen and servants' quarters in the ell, and two bedrooms upstairs. One was used by Ellen Glasgow has her bedroom, and the other as her office, where she did much of her writing. The house was built in 1841 by David Branch, and was acquired by the parents of Ellen Glasgow when she was a teenager. She made this her home for the remainder of her life, during which time she wrote a series of novels, all set in her native Virginia. The combined opus provides a window into the social life of the region from about 1850 well into the 20th century. Glasgow was recognized in 1942 with the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel for her 1941 In This Our Life. After Glasgow's death in 1945, the house was purchased by the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities (now Preservation Virginia). The organization has since sold the property. In 1979, some of the rooms of the Ellen Glasgow House served as office space for Richmond Public Schools. On the property beyond the backyard garden was The Carriage House Gallery, part of the Ellen Glasgow House which featured exhibitions by local Richmond artists, including pinhole photographer Willie Anne Wright.

Emmanuel Church is a historic Episcopal church located at Greenwood in Albemarle County, Virginia. Emmanuel Episcopal Church is a parish church in the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia. The mission of Emmanuel Episcopal Church is: ""May we live in Christ and seek to do His Work from this place." History of Emmanuel Church In the 1850s church members began meeting in homes and then in a Baptist church in Hillsboro. The first service in the new building was on Christmas Day 1863 with preaching by Reverend Dabney C. T. Davis. In 1868 the church entered into an agreement with St. Paul's – Ivy to share a rector and resources. In 1899 the church planted St. Georges Chapel where services were held from 1899 to 1941. In 1900 Archdeacon Neve established the Church of the Holy Cross near Batesville as a mission of Emmanuel. The original church was built in 1863, Thomas Conrad Bowen (Grandfather of James Armistead Shirley Sr. of Greenwood) gave the original building materials for the Church, with additions and modifications made in 1905 and 1911. The 1911 modifications were largely financed by children of Chiswell Langhorne, including Nancy Astor, Viscountess Astor. These modifications were designed by architect Waddy Butler Wood (1869-1944). The church consists of a narthex located in the bell tower, nave with gallery, and chancel flanked by two small rooms. It is a rectangular brick building with a slate roof. The parish hall was doubled in size and restorations made to the church about 1940 by Charlottesville architect Milton L. Grigg (1905-1982). Arcades connect the church to the parish hall and form a cloistered courtyard. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. Rectors Rev. Dabney C. T. Davis, 1860-1864 Rev.

Evergreen Cemetery (Richmond, Virginia)

Evergreen Cemetery is a historic African-American cemetery in the East End of Richmond, Virginia, dating from 1891. The most recent burial in the historic section of the cemetery dates from the 1980s. Much of the privately owned cemetery had completely overgrown with kudzu or is returning to forest until the late 2010's. The original organization responsible for the cemetery, the Evergreen Cemetery Association, made no allowances for perpetual care in its charter. However, in recent years (2019–2022) community efforts have made noticeable progress in cleaning. In 1970, the association sold its more than 5,000 plots to Metropolitan Memorial Services, which soon went bankrupt. A group of black funeral-home directors later bought the site at auction. Notable burials Rev. John Andrew Bowler (1862–1935), educator Theodore W. Jones (1853–1943) Canadian-born American businessman, politician Z. D.

Exchange Hotel (Gordonsville, Virginia)

The Exchange Hotel in Gordonsville, Virginia, was built in 1860 for Richard F. Omohundro next to an important railroad junction, when the Exchange Hotel offered a welcome stopping place for weary passengers on the Virginia Central Railroad. Civil War In March 1862, because of its strategic location, the Exchange Hotel became part of the Gordonsville Receiving Hospital, admitting more than 23,000 sick and wounded in less than a year. The wounded and dying from nearby battlefields such as Cedar Mountain, Chancellorsville, Trevilian Station, Mine Run, Brandy Station, and the Wilderness were brought by the trainloads. Although this was primarily a Confederate facility, the hospital treated the wounded from both sides. Twenty-six Union soldiers died here. By war's end more than 70,000 men had been treated at the Gordonsville Receiving Hospital and just over 700 would be buried on its surrounding grounds. The scene of untold agony and death, the building survived the conflict. After the war In the reconstruction period, this hospital served newly free people who were previously enslaved as a Freedman's Bureau Hospital. As the United States healed and the railroads boomed, this graceful building again became a hotel and enjoyed a fine reputation until the 1940s when it went into decline. Museum Historic Gordonsville, Inc. acquired and restored the property in 1971. The museum contains many artifacts from the Civil War era, like medical artifacts, uniforms and firearms. The museum also houses a bookstore. It is located in the Gordonsville Historic District. References External links Official Website

George Bush Center for Intelligence

George Bush Center for Intelligence är det officiella namnet på Central Intelligence Agency:s anläggning där dess huvudkontor finns och som beläget i Fairfax County, Virginia strax utanför Washington, DC. Langley används ofta som en metonym eftersom anläggningen geografiskt tillhör orten Langley. Anläggningen fick sitt nuvarande namn 1999 efter George H.W. Bush, som innan han blev USA:s vicepresident (1981-1989) och USA:s president (1989-1993), var chef för CIA (engelska: Director of Central Intelligence) från 1976 till 1977 i Gerald Fords administration. Bakgrund Huvudkontoret utgör en anläggning med flera byggnader på ett 1,04 km² stort landområde. Den äldre huvudbyggnaden (benämnd som Old Headquarters Office, OHB) ritades av det New York-baserade arkitektkontoret Harrison & Abramovitz på 1950-talet och har en golvyta på 130 000 m². Första spadtaget togs den 3 november 1959, då USA:s dåvarande president Dwight Eisenhower deltog vid grundstensläggningen. Byggnaden blev färdigställd i mars 1961. Den nyare huvudbyggnaden (New Headquarters Building, NHB), ritades av Smith, Hinchman and Grylls Associates och den blev färdigställd i mars 1991 efter byggstarten i maj 1984. OHB och NHB är sammankopplade med varandra genom en tunnel. I lobbyn för OHB finns en minnesvägg med en stjärna för varje anställd vid CIA som mist livet i tjänsteutövningen. Inne på området finns även ett eget museum om CIA och föregångaren Office of Strategic Services (OSS) som inte är öppet för allmänheten annat än utställningarna som visas på dess hemsida.

Fairfax–Moore House

The Fairfax–Moore House is a historical house located at 207 Prince Street in Alexandria, Virginia, United States. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 17, 1991. The home is noted to its 18th-century Georgian architectural style. To the home's east is the Athenaeum, which is separated from the house by a geometric boxwood garden. History The date of construction is unclear; the main part of the house may have been constructed by Captain John Harper in the 1780s. The lot was originally owned by George William Fairfax. The Georgian-style townhouse is three stories and has a rear ell. Preservationist Gay Montague Moore lived in the home from 1919 until her death in 1988. It is part of the Alexandria Historic District, to which it is a contributing structure. The NRHP nomination form for the home notes that the home's "refined proportions, three-and-a-half-story elevation, side-hall plan, and service ell ... symbolizes the sophistication of Alexandria's late-eighteenth-century urban domestic idiom."

Fairmount, Richmond, Virginia

Originally a trolley car suburb in the years just before the dawn of the 20th century, the Fairmount neighborhood in Church Hill, Richmond, Virginia, is located just north of Union Hill. Much of the neighborhood was developed from the 1890s to the 1920s, and its buildings largely reflect Queen Anne, Italianate, and 1920s bungalow architecture. What is likely the oldest remaining residence, a frame house, probably dates from before 1870. A notable property in the Fairmount neighborhood is the Fairmount School. Annexed from Henrico County in 1906, Fairmount was first incorporated as an independent town on March 10, 1902 (though the area had actually been established some time in the years 1889-1893). The boundaries are roughly east of Mosby Street, north of Carrington, west of 24th/25th Streets, and towards Fairfield Avenue. Across Fairmount Avenue, it is the bulk of the area east of the Brauers neighborhood and west of 24th. In February 2008, the Fairmount Historic District was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The City of Richmond has made available a map of the historic district and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources has released the application to the registry, an illustrated version of which tells the history of the neighborhood with supporting maps and images Archived August 30, 2009, at the Wayback Machine.
