Refuge faunique national San Juan Islands

Le Refuge faunique national des îles San Juan se trouve dans les îles San Juan, au nord de Puget Sound, dans l'État de Washington. Créé en 1976, il comprend 83 petites îles inhabitées, dispersées dans l'ensemble de la région de San Juan, d'une superficie combinée d'environ 1,84 km2. Le refuge est géré par le US Fish and Wildlife Service et est l'un des six refuges du Washington Maritime National Wildlife Refuge Complex. Toutes les îles sauf trois sont désignées comme zone sauvage dans la San Juan Wilderness (1,4 km2), également créée en 1976. Les visiteurs sont interdits et les plaisanciers doivent se tenir à au moins 200 mètres du rivage pour éviter de déranger la faune. Sont exclus deux parcs d'État gérés conjointement avec le Washington State Park System, deux hectares de Matia Island et Turn Island, l'île Smith et l'île Mineure. Les habitats des différentes îles vont des petits rochers aux plus grandes îles herbeuses ou boisées, certaines dotées de hautes falaises qui fournissent des sites de nidification à une grande variété d'oiseaux marins. Faune La nature sauvage de San Juan offre un sanctuaire à une grande variété d'animaux marins, notamment des goélands, des cormorans, des guillemots, des macareux, des bernaches cravants, des huîtriers, des pluviers kildir, des guillemots, des pygargues à tête blanche et des phoques communs. On estime que 200 espèces d'oiseaux visitent les îles chaque année. Les phoques et les baleines sont communs dans les eaux environnantes et la bernache cravant noire utilise les lits de varech pour se nourrir en hiver. Loisirs Les loisirs dans la nature sauvage de San Juan se limitent à l'observation de la faune de loin. Les plaisanciers sont priés de rester à 200 mètres de la nature sauvage lorsqu'ils observent la faune. L'entrée du public sur les terres désignées n'est pas autorisée, à l'exception de l'île Matia, à laquelle on accède par une crique avec un quai. L'île Matia a un terrain de camping et un sentier de 1,6 km à travers la nature sauvage.

San Marco (Spokane, Washington)

The San Marco is a historic Renaissance Revival apartment building in Downtown, Spokane, Washington that was built in 1904. It was designed by architect Albert Held. San Marco was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1987. It is also listed on the NRHP as a contributing property in the Riverside Avenue Historic District. History Built in 1904 by owner George C. Beck, who intended the San Marco to be, "one of the most elegant, expensive buildings" in the city and home to, "flats to lease to the upper crust." The intention to lease apartments to members of upper class society was one of the contributing factors to the San Marco, along with three other apartment buildings designed by Held in the first decade of the 20th century — Amman, Breslin and Knickerbocker — being listed on the NRHP together as part of a thematic group. The San Marco, like the Amman, Breslin and Knickerbocker, represents the initial wave of apartment homes built in Spokane. At the turn of the century the city of Spokane was experiencing a population surge, which was accompanied by a housing shortage. Prior to 1900, city listings showed no "apartment homes" in Spokane. The upper and middle classes tended to own property, while the lower and working classes could rent from hotels, boarding houses or in commercial structures. There was a stigma against apartment homes for upper and middle class tenants at the time, but the housing shortage necessitated their construction. To alleviate the stigma, Held designed the San Marco like he did with other early apartment homes, to appear as if it was a grand hotel or exclusive club. The residential setting of the San Marco was also emphasized to help alleviate the stigma. It was set on the tree-lined Riverside Avenue, and an interior courtyard was included in the plans. The San Marco's historic importance was recognized first in 1976, when it was listed on the NRHP as a contributing property in the Riverside Avenue Historic District, and then again in 1987 when it along with three of Held's other buildings were listed as individual properties on the NRHP. Developer Ron Wells bought the San Marco, as well as seven other buildings within a one block radius of First and Cedar, in the 1980s. At the time, the area was considered undesirable and home to many vagrants. Wells renovated the San Marco, along with his other properties, in the 1980s and early 1990s. Renovation and preservation work on the San Marco and surrounding area helped spur massive investment in Downtown's west end, which continues into the 2020s. Description San Marco is a U-shaped building situated at the triangular intersection of Riverside Avenue and Sprague Avenue in the west end of Downtown Spokane and the western extremity of the Riverside Avenue Historic District. The two wings of the building, along Riverside and Sprague, surround an interior courtyard with an open end to the east. The Riverside wing is about 200 feet long while the Sprague wing is about 130 feet in length. It is a three-story building with a tan brick exterior above a similarly colored sandstone foundation.

Sarvant Glacier

The Sarvant Glacier is a glacier located on the northern slopes of the Cowlitz Chimneys in the state of Washington. Named for Henry M. Sarvant, who mapped Mount Rainier in 1894, the glacier starts at an elevation of about 7,000 feet (2,100 m) and descends northward down to 6,100 ft (1,900 m). There are several patches of permanent ice and snow that lie to the east and west of the glacier. These range in elevation from about 7,000 ft (2,100 m) to 5,700 ft (1,700 m). The patches of ice and snow to the west are labeled Sarvant Glaciers. See also List of glaciers References

Schafer State Park

Schafer State Park is a public recreation area along the Satsop River located midway between Olympia and Aberdeen in the Satsop Hills of Mason County, Washington. The 122-acre (49 ha) state park offers camping, two miles of hiking trails, fishing (especially for steelhead), swimming, birdwatching, interpretive activities, wildlife viewing, and horseshoes. The park's abundance of historic structures led to its inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.

Schmitz Park

Schmitz Park, also known as Schmitz Preserve Park, is a 53.1-acre (21.5 ha) park around 15 blocks east of Alki Point in West Seattle, Washington. It features Schmitz Park Creek and one of the last stands of old-growth forest in the city. The Lushootseed name for the area that is now the park is dəxʷqutəb, meaning "place of disease." Ferdinand and Emma Schmitz donated 30 acres (12 ha) of the park to the city in 1908. They wanted their land to be used as a park. (Ferdinand was a German immigrant who moved to Seattle in 1887 and was the city's Parks Commissioner from 1908 to 1914). Additions to the park were purchased in 1909, 1930, 1947, and 1958, making the park grow over 20 more acres (8 ha). In 1949, a "preservation policy" was applied to Schmitz Park. It stated that only foot trails were allowed and all signs were to be removed from inside the park's borders. This policy still remains today. In 1953, Schmitz Park Elementary School opened to the public. The school sits adjacent to Schmitz Park. In January 2018 Seattle City Council Bill No. CB 119169 authorized the purchase of a 5,000-sq. ft. lot at the southeast edge of the park from Bruce Stotler for $225,000, less than half its assessed value. Stotler will continue to live in his home there until he dies or chooses to move. References External links Parks Department page on Schmitz Park
Scimitar Glacier

Scimitar Glacier is located on the west and northwest slopes of Glacier Peak in the U.S. state of Washington. As is true with all the glaciers found on Glacier Peak, Scimitar Glacier is retreating. During the Little Ice Age Scimitar Glacier was connected to Kennedy Glacier to the north. From about 1850 to 1946, the glacier retreated 5,250 ft (1,600 m), but advanced 1,738 ft (530 m) during a colder and wetter period lasting until about 1980. Scimitar Glacier has retreated since, but due to the thickness of the ice at the terminus, had not lost much of its length through the year 2005.

Seattle Betsuin Buddhist Temple

Seattle Betsuin Buddhist Temple (built 1940–41) is a Japanese Jodo Shinshu Buddhist temple in Seattle, Washington, United States. It is a member of the Buddhist Churches of America. Its original name is the Seattle Buddhist Church. Although it was designed by Japanese American Kichio Allen Arai, the architect of record was Pierce A. Horrocks, because Arai lacked an architectural license. It replaced an earlier building (built 1906–1908 by Saunders & Lawton) that was torn down as part of the Yesler Terrace project. The building is a designated Seattle landmark. An arson fire on December 31, 2023, destroyed the temple's archives and damaged an altar.

Közép-seattle-i Főiskola

A Közép-seattle-i Főiskola (Seattle Central College, SCC) állami fenntartású felsőoktatási intézmény az Amerikai Egyesült Államok Seattle városában. Az Észak-seattle-i Főiskolával és a Dél-seattle-i Főiskolával együtt a Seattle Colleges District része. Története Az 1902-ben megnyílt Broadway Középiskola feladata a második világháború után a hazatérő veteránok továbbképzése volt, így a középiskolai diákokat a Lincoln iskolába íratták át, a Broadwayjel közös campuson működő Edison Műszaki Intézet pedig a teljes területet elfoglalta. A Seattle-i Közösségi Főiskola nevet felvevő intézmény 1966-tól folytat felsőfokú képzést; 1970-ben az Észak-seattle-i és a Dél-seattle-i Közösségi Főiskola megnyitásakor Közép-seattle-i Közösségi Főiskolára keresztelték át. 2014-ben nevéből a „közösségi” szót törölték. Oktatás Az intézmény alapfokú diplomát viselkedéstudományi, informatikai és fogorvosi szakokon bocsát ki, emellett kétéves képzéseket is indítanak, melyek elvégzésével más egyetemeken lehet továbbtanulni. A főiskola tengerészeti képzést is folytat, melynek keretében gyakorlóhajóval is rendelkeznek. Folyóiratok Az 1966-tól megjelenő The City Collegian újságot az egyetem 2008-ban megszüntette, mivel az abban megjelenő cikkek tüntetésekhez vezettek, az egyetem dolgozói pedig ellenségesek lettek a szerkesztőkkel. A döntések ellen tiltakozva Jeb Wyman tanácsadó lemondott. Az újság utódja, a New City Collegian 2012-ben indult el; az egyetemtől támogatást nem kapott, a felmerülő költségeket egy helyi szponzor (Cupcake Royale) térítette meg. A 2011-ben alapított The Central Circuit magazin 2016-ban szűnt meg. 2018-ban The Seattle Collegian néven új folyóiratot alapítottak.

Seattle Chinese Garden

The Seattle Chinese Garden (Chinese: 西華園; pinyin: Xī Huáyuán; Jyutping: Sai1 Waa4jyun4; lit. 'West Chinese garden') is a Sichuanese garden located on 4.6 acres (1.9 hectares) at the north end of the South Seattle College campus in West Seattle. The site has a panoramic view of Downtown Seattle, Elliott Bay, and the Cascade Mountains, including Mount Baker and Mount Rainier. The first portion of the garden opened in the early 1990s. History and attributes When fully built, the garden will be one of the largest Chinese gardens outside of China. Designed and built in conjunction with architects and artisans from Seattle and its sister city, Chongqing, the garden will is the first in the United States to authentically represent the Sichuan style. The Garden features Sichuan horticulture and the rock formations inspired by China's Yangtze River gorges. Where possible, its formal halls and pavilions were fabricated in Chongqing using traditional materials and methods, and artisans from China supervised their installation in Seattle. The Garden is being constructed in phases. The first phase, the Pine and Plum Pavilion, was opened in the early 1990s. The "Knowing the Spring Courtyard," the second traditional structure in the Garden, was completed in the fall of 2010 and opened to the public in February 2011. In May 2011 a Grand Opening celebration was held with dignitaries from Seattle and Chongqing attending. Components for this courtyard were fabricated in Chongqing, and assembly performed by Chinese artisans from Chongqing and local contractors. The entire project was expected to be completed in 2017. The Garden will have a range of Chinese plants and horticultural elements. There will be a palette of Chinese plants placed in an authentic Sichuan landscape design, a collection of Sichuan-style penjing (Chinese bonsai), and classes available in horticultural subjects as well as the Chinese cultural arts. The Garden will also feature 12 buildings, including an education center and a banquet hall with special event seating for up to 200 people. The Garden's 85-foot (26 m) "Floating Clouds Pavilion" will soar over the Garden, placed on an axis with the Space Needle. The completed Chongqing Tower, a four-story tier tower, is planned to be completed in 2030 if $30 million in funding is raised.

Seattle Hebrew Academy

The Seattle Hebrew Academy is a private Kindergarten–grade 8 school and Preschool located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. History The school was established in 1947 as the "Seattle Hebrew Day School" to integrate Jewish and secular studies following World War II, and in the following year, it and the Seattle Talmud Torah consolidated. The school changed its name in 1969 to "Seattle Hebrew Academy", to reflect the addition of a childhood center. The school is located in a space formerly occupied by the Sisters of the Sacred Heart and the old Forest Ridge, since 1973 when the building was purchased by the school administration. The academy building took extensive damage and was deemed unsafe following the Nisqually Quake in March, 2001. The school had temporary campuses during the retrofit and rebuild period. They were first housed in Mercer Island's Herzl Ner Tamid for the remainder of the 2001 school year. The Seattle Hebrew Academy built temporary classrooms in the parking lot of Bikur Cholim Machzikay Hadath for the lower school while the middle school was housed in portables in the upper field on the Seattle Hebrew Academy's campus. The school board raised money for renovations, totalling $8 million over the course of three years. The academy reopened on their Capitol Hill campus in Autumn 2004. In 2006, the academy hired Rivy Poupko Kletenik as their head of school. She was the first woman head of school in the school's history. Two weeks after Kletenik was elected to serve as head of school, a break away school formed in reaction to the Seattle Hebrew Academy selecting a female head. Kletenik served the Academy for 16 years, tied for the longest serving Head of School with the first head, Rabbi Samuel Gruadenz. In 2022, Rabbi Benjy Owen became the first Sephardic head of school. In 2023, the school officially adopted the "Stars of David" as its new mascot, commonly referred to as the "Stars." The school colors are dark blue, athletic gold, and white. The school is accredited through Northwest Association for Independent Schools, NWAIS. References External links Seattle Hebrew Academy
