Alaska Trade Building

The Alaska Trade Building, also known as the Union Record Building and the Steele Building, is a historic building in Seattle, Washington located on First Avenue near the Pike Place Market. Built in 1909, it was one of the first reinforced steel, concrete and brick buildings in the area and was advertised as being completely fireproof. The building is historically associated with the country's only Union-owned daily newspaper, The Seattle Union Record and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Butterworth Building, another National Register property, neighbors it to the north. History The Alaska Trade Building was built by brick & tile manufacturer James H. Steele in 1909, replacing a two-story wooden building known as the 'Rose Block' that pre-dated the Great Seattle fire. Steele commissioned architect John O. Taft whose original plans published in the Seattle Times in March 1909 called for an eight-story hotel building trimmed in Granite and Terra cotta that would cost $135,000 and be built in 2 phases. Ultimately only the first four floors were ever built; what was completed was largely unadorned and besides the configuration of the windows and the 2 doric columns flanking the ground floor entrance the building bore no resemblance to the original plans. In late 1910, the unfinished building was purchased from Steele for $150,000 by Portland, Oregon developers J.O. Storey and Thomas Lavake, who converted the building into open loft space. It was briefly known as the Storey Building during this time before reverting back to the Steele Building. The building was purchased by the Central Labor Council and the local Trade Union in 1915. The Seattle Union Record was established as a weekly paper in 1910 by the Central Labor Council. The council's secretary, E.B. "Harry" Ault, became editor in 1912 and would expand the paper to a daily in 1918. Under Ault's leadership, the paper grew from a circulation of 3,000 to 50,000 to over 112,000 in 1919. Seeking larger quarters, the paper was moved into the Alaska Trade Building in 1921. When Dave Beck took control of the Central Labor Council, he sold the paper to Ault in 1924. The paper ceased publication in 1928 but would see a brief resurrection during the Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer strikes in 2000. The building's third floor is currently home to the office of Ecotope, Inc. References External links Alaska Trade Building Nomination form for The National Register of Historic Places, 1968.

Alder-Talsperre

Die Alder-Talsperre (englisch Alder Dam) ist eine Talsperre im US-Bundesstaat Washington, die zur Stromerzeugung am Nisqually River genutzt wird. Talsperre Die aus Stahlbeton gebaute Bogenstaumauer der Talsperre befindet sich circa 8 km südwestlich des Ortes Eatonville. Die Talsperre wurde im Jahr 1945 erbaut, sie ist im Besitz des regionalen Stromversorgungsunternehmens Tacoma Power und wird von dieser Firma betrieben. Zur Zeit der Fertigstellung gehörte die Alder-Talsperre mit einer Höhe von 100 Metern zu den höchsten Talsperren in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die Staumauer mit einer Gesamtlänge von 490 Metern hat an der Basis eine Stärke von circa 37 Metern. Im Bauwerk befinden sich zwei Turbinen, die Generatoren mit einer Leistung von jeweils 25.000 kW antreiben. Die Talsperre erzeugt jährlich circa 228 Millionen kWh Strom. Obwohl es sich bei dem Absperrbauwerk der Alder-Talsperre um eine Staumauer (englisch river dam) handelt, wird die englische Bezeichnung „Alder Dam“ meist unzutreffend mit „Alder-Damm“ oder „Alder-Staudamm“ (englisch embankment dam) übersetzt. Die korrekte Unterscheidung zwischen Damm und Staumauer richtet sich nach der Bauweise und den beim Bau verwendeten Materialien. Alder Lake Der aufgestaute See erstreckt sich über eine Länge von circa 11 km und hat eine Gesamtfläche von 12,4 km². Mit 45 km Küstenlinie ist der See ein beliebter Erholungsort mit der Möglichkeit für Wassersport und zum Angeln. Am nördlichen Ufer des Sees, östlich der Talsperre hat deren Eigentümer den Alder Lake Park eingerichtet. Der Park bietet Zugang zum See und einen ganzjährig geöffneten Campingplatz mit 173 Stellplätzen. Am östlichen Rand des Sees liegt der kleine Ort Elbe. In der näheren Umgebung des Sees, in circa 35 km Entfernung, befindet sich auch der Schichtvulkan Mount Rainier mit dem Mount Rainier National Park. Namensgebung Der Name des Sees und der Talsperre erinnert an den ehemaligen kleinen Ort Alder der im Jahr 1905 gegründet wurde und im Jahr 1909 circa 200 Einwohner hatte. Nach der Fertigstellung der Staumauer im Jahr 1945 wurde der Ort vom aufgestauten Wasser des Sees überschwemmt und verschwand. Bei niedrigem Wasserstand des Sees sind an einigen Stellen noch Überreste der Siedlung zu sehen. Weblinks Einzelnachweise
Alder Dam

Alder Dam is a concrete thick arch dam on the Nisqually River in the U.S. state of Washington. The construction began in 1942 and was completed in 1945. At this time Alder Dam was among the tallest dams in the United States, although this title has since been surpassed. The impounded water behind the dam forms Alder Lake, stretching about 7 miles (11 km) upstream with a capacity of 241,950 acre-feet (0.29844 km3). With 28 miles (45 km) of shoreline, the lake is a popular recreation spot close to Mount Rainier National Park. Water from Alder Lake is sent into two generators at the base of the dam, each of which produces 25 megawatts for a total nameplate capacity of 50 megawatts. Two miles downstream is LaGrande Dam, site of the first dam in the area, dating from 1912, and rebuilt in 1945 along with Alder's construction. Most of the energy produced at the dam is sent to the city of Tacoma, about 25 miles (40 km) north. Both Alder and LaGrande dams are owned and operated by Tacoma Power. The name of the lake and the dam recalls the former small town of Alder, which was flooded in 1945 by the impounded water of the lake and disappeared. The current community of Alder is located north of the reservoir. References

Alta Lake State Park

Der Alta Lake State Park ist ein Naherholungsgebiet etwa 2 mi (3,2 km) südwestlich von Pateros (Washington) am Nordufer des 220 Acres (89 ha) großen Alta Lake. Er liegt im bergigen Inneren des Bundesstaates. Der 181 Acres (73,2 ha) große State Park und der angrenzende See werden von aufgetürmten steinernen Kliffs begrenzt, die durch die Vergletscherung geschaffen wurden, bis zu 1.000 ft (ca. 300 m) hoch über den Talgrund aufragen und sich bis zum Gipfel des Old Goat Mountain fortsetzen, welcher sich bis 4.200 ft (ca. 1.280 m) über den Park erhebt. Die Alta Lake Road führt über 2 mi (3,2 km) zum Park und zweigt von der Washington State Route 153 ab, welche entlang des Methow River verläuft. Der Park wird von der Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission unterhalten. Geschichte Ein Juwelier und Goldgräber aus Wilbur benannte den See 1900 nach seiner Tochter Alta Heinz. Die Stadt Pateros übergab 1951 die Ländereien an den Bundesstaat, um dort einen State Park einzurichten. 2014 wurde der Park schwer durch den Carlton-Complex-Waldbrand beschädigt, was zur Schließung des Parks über fünf Wochen führte. Die Anstrengungen zur Behebung der Schäden sind immer noch im Gange. Tourismus Der Park bietet Möglichkeiten zum Schwimmen, Bootfahren, Angeln und Windsurfen am, im und auf dem Alta Lake, welcher etwa 2 mi (3,2 km) lang und 0,5 mi (0,8 km) breit ist. Es gibt Camping- und Picknick-Plätze im Park sowie Wanderwege von 2 mi (3,2 km) Länge. Golf kann auf dem nahegelegenen Alta Lake Golf Course gespielt werden. Weitere Quellen Ernest E.

Anderson Glacier

Anderson Glacier was a glacier located in a cirque south of Mount Anderson in the Olympic Mountains and Olympic National Park. The southward-facing glacier starts on the steep headwalls of the cirque at about 6,200 feet (1,900 m) to 6,000 ft (1,800 m). It flows down to about 5,240 ft (1,600 m) before terminating. Meltwater from the glacier enters a lake at about 4,949 ft (1,508 m) before tumbling down a steep cliff. Between 1927 and 2009, Anderson Glacier lost more than 90 percent of its surface area. By 2011, the glacier was gone. The lack of glacial meltwater from the Anderson Glacier has caused the Quinault River to reach new recorded lows.

Angle Lake (Washington)

Angle Lake is an L-shaped lake in SeaTac, Washington, United States, occupying 102 acres (0.41 km2) between Interstate 5 and State Route 99. The lake most likely was so named on account of its outline, which forms a right angle. Like nearby Lake Burien and Bow Lake, it was formed by the glacial retreat roughly 12,000 years ago. On the western shore is a 10-acre (0.040 km2) park, Angle Lake Park, administered by the City of SeaTac Parks and Recreation department. The remainder of the shoreline is ringed with private homes. The Angle Lake light rail station is named for the lake, and is located to the southwest. The lake is stocked with rainbow trout by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. It is also home to kokanee, largemouth bass, crappie, catfish, and yellow perch. The lake is open to fishing year-round. Angle Lake was home to an annual fireworks show and hydroplane races on Independence Day until 2024, when both were replaced by a drone show due to a complaint filed by a resident, who cited a 1932 Washington Supreme Court ruling. During the first drone show, 55 of the 200 drones lost their GPS signals and descended into the lake, rendering them unusable. Park Angle Lake Park was established in the 1920s as the private Angle Lake Plunge resort. The Park was acquired by King County in 1957 becoming the public Angle Lake Park. After the City was formed the County transferred the ownership of Angle Lake Park to the City of SeaTac.<https://www.historylink.org/file/4181> The entrance to the park is off International Boulevard (State Route 99), 0.8 miles (1.3 km) from Seattle–Tacoma International Airport. It includes 371 feet (113 m) of the lake shore, with a swimming area, fishing pier, picnic areas and public boat launch. References
