Perkins Stadium

Perkins Stadium is an outdoor sports stadium in Whitewater, Wisconsin. Primarily used for American football, it serves as the home field of the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater Warhawks. Opened in 1970 as "Warhawks Stadium", with a capacity of 11,000 people. It was renamed in 1996 in honor of former football coach Forrest Perkins. The stadium hosts several marching band events, including the MACBDA Championships and the WSMA State Marching Band Championships. Drum Corps International and Drum & Bugle Corps World Championships held at the stadium in 1972 and 1973. I 2008 the stadium underwent a significant renovation that added synthetic turf, upgraded bench areas, landscaping and other improvements, including upgrades to the entrance area and scoreboard. The project increased seating capacity to 13,500, making Perkins Stadium the largest facility in NCAA Division III. On October 3, 2015, a record crowd of 15,287 was recorded for a game. That mark was shattered on October 8, 2016, when the Warhawks defeated the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh 17–14 in front of a crowd of 17,535 fans, then broken again on October 13, 2022, for a Friday night game between the same teams with 18,951 in attendance. The record was broken again at the October 7, 2023 game against the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, where 20,113 people were in attendance. That not only broke the previous Perkins Stadium record, but also broke the NCAA Division III record for attendance. On September 23, 2017, the NCAA record was broken by a St. Thomas vs. Saint John's contest that was hosted at Target Field in Minneapolis, Minnesota. However, the October 2023 game maintains the largest crowd for a Division III game played at a non-neutral site. References External links Official website Aerial View of Perkins Stadium

Peshtigo Fire Museum

The Peshtigo Fire Museum preserves the heritage of the Peshtigo Fire, which destroyed the city of Peshtigo, Wisconsin and surrounding area on October 8, 1871, killing over 2,000 people. It hosts storytelling, exhibits of artifacts from the fire, displays of the lifestyle at the time of the disaster, and a cemetery to memorialize those who died. The museum is adjacent to the Peshtigo Fire Cemetery, where the charred remains of over 350 people were buried in a mass grave. The cemetery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The memorial at the cemetery was the first official state historical marker authorized by the State Historical Society of Wisconsin. Collection A featured item in the museum's collection is the Church tabernacle that local Roman Catholic priest Father Peter Pernin saved by submerging in the Peshtigo River. The tabernacle survived the fire unblemished. Other Peshtigo fire items include a small burned Bible and a melted glass dish discovered by a construction worker in 1995. The Bible is open to Psalms 106 and 107. Several letters with first-person accounts of the fire and cleanup are on display. One letter describes burying nine to ten hundred (900 to 1000) dead. There are several maps of Peshtigo, one before the fire and another showing the extent of the fire. A mural depicts before, during, and after the fire. Other items that the museum features include a collection of antique items showing the history of the area. All items in the museum were donated. History The museum is located on the site where St. Mary's Catholic Church stood before the fire. The first church to be rebuilt after the fire was a Congregational Church, across the river from the St. Mary's site and a new Catholic church later built at the St. Mary's site. The Catholic church burned again in 1927, and later rebuilt elsewhere. The Congregational church was moved across the river, by Edmund B. Dupuis, after 1927 to the St. Mary's site and that structure was converted to the museum in 1963. See also Fire museum References External links Peshtigo Fire Museum official website

Pewaukee Lake

Pewaukee Lake is a lake located in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, United States. The largest lake in Waukesha County's "Lake Country", Pewaukee Lake is approximately five miles (8 km) long and one mile (1.6 km) wide, with an average depth of 15 feet (4.6 m) sloping to a maximum depth of 46 feet (14 m). The lake is known for its inland sailing races. National sailing events take place annually and are often hosted by the Pewaukee Yacht Club located on the southern shore of the lake. The lake's fish include bluegill, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, muskellunge ("muskie"), northern pike, tiger muskellunge ("tiger muskie"), walleye, yellow perch and non-native carp. Pewaukee Lake experienced high waters and flooding during the spring and summer of 2008. The floods caused millions of dollars in damages to the surrounding area. History Pewaukee Lake has long been a summertime destination for Milwaukee residents. In winter months, ice was often removed from the lake for residents of Milwaukee in the 1800s.

Phoenix Park (Eau Claire, Wisconsin)

Phoenix Park is a public space in downtown Eau Claire, Wisconsin, located on a former brownfield site at the confluence of the Chippewa River and the Eau Claire River. It covers approximately 9 acres with approximately 1/2 mile of riverbank frontage. The park serves as the trailhead for the Chippewa River State Trail. The park also offers a walking labyrinth, a natural amphitheater, and is home to Eau Claire's year-round farmer's market. These amenities make Phoenix Park a major gathering spot, especially during the summer months when the park plays hosts to concerts. The park is owned and operated by the City of Eau Claire. History Completed in 2005, the park is named for the former Phoenix Steel Company (previously Phoenix Manufacturing Company) that resided on a majority of the site (along the Chippewa River frontage) since 1875. Phoenix Steel vacated the site in 1971, and subsequently leased the building for warehousing and storage. In 1981 the city of Eau Claire took ownership of the tax-delinquent site with the intent of eliminating the blight influences of the property. Despite the listing of the industrial buildings in the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, the buildings were demolished per the city's plan in 1985. In 1994 the city and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources worked jointly to remediate the soil contamination from almost a century of industrial operations. The remainder of the brownfield on the Eau Claire River frontage, owned by Northern States Power (later Xcel Energy), was remediated in 2002. The purchase of the land by the city of Eau Claire was aided by the Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Fund, a state of Wisconsin fund for conservation, recreation, and waterfront development. The construction of the park was funded through a mix of Federal funding and Eau Claire Tax Incremental District #8, created to eliminate blight in the downtown area.

Pilot Island Light

The Pilot Island Light is a lighthouse located near Gills Rock, on Pilot Island at the east end of Death's Door passage, in Door County, Wisconsin. The building's design is similar to Pottawatomie Light on Rock Island (and many others), but is made of brick instead of stone. Until 1910 it was called Port des Morts Island Light. The light was converted to electric in 1942 and automated in 1962. History The original Port des Morts Light was built on nearby Plum Island in 1849, but was closed and rebuilt on Pilot Island in 1858 to better mark the channel. Frequent and oppressive fog made the passage hazardous, as well as making it an extremely lonely and forbidding place to work. A fog bell signal was installed in 1862. In 1864 it was replaced by a foghorn. In 1875 it was converted to a steam powered fog siren. In 1880 a separate fog building was built for a "duplicate" fog siren. This began a 10-inch (250 mm) steam whistle and new building in 1900 (which still exists near water's edge). In 1904, there came a realization that the whistles were "less than effective" and they were replaced by dual diaphones. The horns made living there difficult; fertilized eggs would be destroyed by the sounds. Due to the workload associated with the light and fog signal, the station was staffed by a keeper and two assistant keepers. This led to the conversion of an old fog signal building into housing for the second assistant keeper in 1901. It is one of ten lighthouses in Door County. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 as the Pilot Island Light, reference #83004279. The island is controlled by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service as part of the Green Bay National Wildlife Refuge since 2007. The grounds, dwelling and tower are closed to public use. The island is currently "abandoned, overgrown, and overrun" by a large cormorant population. Pilot Island NW Site Shipwrecks On October 17, 1892, the schooner JE Gilmore wrecked on the reef northwest of the island, very near to where the Forest had wrecked the year before. The crew remained aboard until a storm arrived on October 28, then abandoned ship. As the storm grew, the AP Nichols attempted to make the passage and was also driven onto the reef to join the Forest and JE Gilmore. Keeper Martin Knudsen ventured out onto the reef in the middle of the storm and was able to rescue the crew of six. For this, he was awarded a silver lifesaving medal from the US government and the Life Saving Benevolent Association of New York's gold medal. Partly as a result of this, a US Lifesaving station was built on neighboring Plum Island in 1895.

Phare de l'île Pilot

Le phare de l'île Pilot (en anglais : Pilot Island Light), est un phare du lac Michigan situé sur l'île Pilot, près de Liberty Groves dans le Comté de Door, Wisconsin. Ce phare est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 21 novembre 1983 sous le no 83004279. Historique Ce phare, mis en service en 1858 sur l'île Pilot, marque le passage des Porte des Morts. Il est similaire à l'ancien phare de Pottawatomie, en brique au lieu de la pierre. Jusqu'en 1910 il porta le nom de Porte des Morts Island Light. Le bâtiment d'origine du signal de brume a été converti en une deuxième résidence de gardien de phare adjoint en 1900. Un brouillard fréquent et oppressant rendait ce passage dangereux. Une cloche de brouillard a été installé en 1862. En 1864, elle a été remplacée par une corne de brume. En 1875, elle a été convertie en sirène de brouillard à vapeur. En 1880, un bâtiment de brouillard séparé a été construit pour la sirène pour un sifflet à vapeur de 10 pouces (250 mm) et un nouveau bâtiment en 1900 (qui existe toujours près du bord de l'eau). En 1904, on a réalisé que les sifflets étaient "moins qu'efficaces" et ils ont été remplacés par des diaphones doubles. Cette île et Plum Island à proximité sont deux des quatre propriétés du Wisconsin cédées par la Garde côtière américaine au Bureau of Land Management (BLM) des États-Unis. Celui-ci travaille à trouver de nouveaux propriétaires qualifiés, qui seraient tenus de prendre soin des propriétés. Le phare appartient, depuis 2007, à l'United States Fish and Wildlife Service et est entretenu par Friends of Pilot and Plum Islands . Le terrain, le logement et la tour sont fermés. L'île est actuellement colonisée par une importante population de cormorans. Description Le phare est une tour carrée en brique de 12 m de haut, avec une galerie et une lanterne, montée sur une maison de gardiens en pierre en deux étages. Le bâtiment est non peint et la lanterne est noire. Il émet, à une hauteur focale de 15 m, deux éclats blancs d'une seconde par période de 6 secondes. Sa portée est de 12 milles nautiques (environ 22 km).

Pittsburgh Plate Glass Enamel Plant

The Pittsburgh Plate Glass Enamel Plant is an Art Moderne-styled factory in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, built in 1937 by the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company. In 2009 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009. History The plant was constructed as part of the expansion of the paint and varnish division of what is now PPG Industries based in Pittsburgh. The building is four stories, 200 feet long, with a brick-clad exterior and a graceful glass tower at the northwest corner. It was designed by the firm of Eschweiler & Eschweiler. Hallmarks of the Art Moderne style are the simple, smooth shapes and curves resembling an airplane and the independence from any historic architectural styles. PPG manufactured enamel paint in the building from 1937 until 1976. After Pittsburgh, Transpack made boxes in the plant until 2007. Renovated in 2008 for commercial and business use, the four-story building houses offices for Knight-Barry Title Group, and the headquarters for data security and compression company, PKWARE, Inc..

Pleasant Prairie Power Plant

Pleasant Prairie Power Plant was a 1.21-gigawatt (1,210 MW) coal power plant located in Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin. In 2009, it was listed by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) as the largest generating station in Wisconsin and generated roughly 13% of Wisconsin's electricity, burning around 13,000 tons of coal daily. Background The 30-year-old power plant has developed and applied a retrofit system that has helped reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) by up to 90% and sulfur dioxide (SO2) by up to 95%. The Pleasant Prairie plant produces “8.6 million tons of CO2 annually – about as much as (that produced by) 1.7 million US cars”, according to The Wall Street Journal. The plant uses experimental technology designed by French Alstom SA to separate carbon dioxide from the exhaust, and is seen as a proving ground for clean coal technology. The plant is owned by We Energies. In an effort to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the plant uses a chilled ammonia (NH3) process developed by Alstom. that captures up to 90% of carbon emissions as it escapes the flue gas. The demonstration project began in March 2008 and would last for two years. The America’s Power Factuality Tour stopped at the Pleasant Prairie Power Plant to report on its role in generating electricity in the United States in 2009. Pleasant Prairie received its coal from the Powder River Basin in Wyoming. Most of it is sourced from the Cordero Rojo Mine. On November 28, 2017, WEC Energy Group announced that it would be closing the plant in 2018, pending permission from Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO). WEC cited market forces such as cheaper natural gas and renewables for the plant's closure. Pleasant Prairie shut down on April 3, 2018. The plant is expected to cost $1 billion over the next 2 decades while saving $2.5 billion in avoided costs.
