World Trade Center is a terminal station on the PATH system. Located within the World Trade Center in the Financial District neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City.
The station was originally opened on July 19, 1909, as Hudson Terminal. Following the September 11, 2001 attacks, a temporary station opened in 2003. The main station house, the Oculus, opened on March 3, 2016, and the terminal was renamed the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, or World Trade Center for short. The $4 billion Oculus station house consists of white ribs that interlock high above the ground. In early 2004, the Port Authority, which owns the land, modified the plan to include a large transportation station downtown, intended to rival Penn Station and Grand Central Terminal. Calatrava was hired as the architect for this new, $2 billion design, and he revealed his plan in January 2004. Calatrava's design called for an above-ground station house (now the Oculus) with curved supports that extended outward, like wings. These wings would run the length of the concourse, which would run from Church Street in the east to the PATH station under Greenwich Street in the west. The new station has been controversial due to its high costs and extended delays.

The Korumburra Baptist Church, on the corner of Mine Road and Hymans Street, was designed by the architectural firm Jervis and Ormerod and was constructed by Mr. Faulkner in 1895. Aesthetically, it is an interesting example of Federation Carpenter Gothic style, an architectural movement which, as its name suggests, is an idiom that makes great use of timber, demonstrating how the tradesmen used, connected, expressed and embellished the various timber components of the building. The embellishment usually drew upon shapes and patterns reminiscent of various previous Gothic revival architectural movements.
Important elements in the Korumburra Baptist Church identifying it as an example of the Federation Carpenter Gothic style include the use of weatherboards over a timber frame, pointed arched stained glass windows and unusual detailing not such as the treatment of the main front with its panelled projections. This style of architecture is unique not only to the town, but the surrounding area.
The Korumburra Baptist Church is important as the first Baptist Church to be built in the area, and is thought to be the only early Baptist Church still extant. It is therefore highly significant in demonstrating the early development of this church in the Shire.
Korumburra is a medium-sized dairy and farming town in country Victoria, located on the South Gippsland Highway, 120 kilometres south-east of Melbourne. Surrounded by rolling green hills, the town has a population of a little over 4,000 people. Korumburra has built itself on coal mining (after the discovery of a coal seam in 1870), local forestry and dairy farming. Whilst the coal seam has been used up, farming in the area still thrives and a great deal of dairy produce is created from the area. The post office in the area opened on the 1st of September in 1884, and moved to the township on the railway survey line on the 1st of November 1889, the existing office being renamed Glentress. The steam railway connecting it with Melbourne arrived in 1891. Whilst the train line has long since operating commercially, it has found a new life as the popular tourist railway the South Gippsland Railway which operates a heritage railway service between the major country centre of Leongatha and the small market town of Nyora.

NYBAI10-5032
This Commercial Style bank building at 123 N. Main St. was constructed in 1908 and features the large windows and prominent vertical beams, a large metal cornice (that once stretched down the side elevation as well), and a historicist Romanesque ground floor. These elements show a modest small-town example of Chicago Commercial architecture of the early twentieth century, as architects experimented with taller buildings, steel construction, and larger windows.
The first mention of a Chapel in the records of the Inn is in 1428. This was situated near the present War Memorial. In the early seventeenth century it became too small and required repair. In 1608 is the first mention of building a new Chapel. Between then and 1620 there was much discussion and the raising of funds by donations, taxes etc. At one point it was going to be built with 3 sets of double chambers underneath, but this was abandoned in favour of an open crypt where burials could take place. The practice of burials ceased in the mid nineteenth century. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries it was not unusual for girls to leave their newborn babies here. When this happened the Inn would "adopt" the baby and care for it until it was grown up. The children were often given the name Lincoln. A model was submitted by Inigo Jones in 1618. This was probably just an outline plan, which was then modified to suit the benchers. Jones played no further part.
Towards the end of the nineteenth century the roof was in need of repair and the Chapel was considered to be too small. From 1882 to 1883 the Chapel was re-roofed and enlarged. A new Bay was added at the western end of the Chapel, along with the two staircases, vestibule and two vestries. This part is easily recognised as the pews have no doors, unlike the original seventeenth century pews, which were made by "Price the Joyner". In the 1990s further extensive repairs and refurbishment were carried out. The present Gothic revival reconstruction replaced the original barrel vaulted ceiling. At the same time the corbels supporting the beams were decorated with the Arms of former Preachers who went on to become Bishops or Archbishops.

St Leonard at the Hythe, Colchester, Essex
Colchester is unusual, and perhaps unique in England, because for a town of 150,000+ people it has no large central church. There were nine small medieval parishes, each with its own small church, but none as big as Ipswich's St Mary le Tower, or Norwich's St Peter Mancroft, or Cambridge's St Mary the Great. They suffered two depredations that churches nowhere else in England had to suffer - most were ruined during the 1648 Seige of Colchester (being the only fortified buildings in town, the Royalists holed up in them and they were attacked by the Parliamentarians) and then the earthquake of 1884, after which two of them were demolished.
One of the survivors was St Leonard. Set on the Hythe, the old Colchester port area, now a rundown area of 19th century streets and warehouses, but 'coming up' with apartments along the waterfront. This was the former parish church, but is now redundant and in the care of the CCT.
St Leonard is the biggest and grandest church in Colchester, about a mile from the town centre. It would not be out of place in rural Suffolk, with aisles and a clerestory, and its tower surmounted with flushwork and pinnacles. The church is open Tuesdays and Saturdays, with a keyholder notice at other times, but both keyholders were out, which was my big disappointment of the day.
The south door has repaired musket ball holes in it - the Seige of Colchester was broken here when the Royalists guarding the river crossing were overpowered by a regiment of Suffolk parliamentarians who took the church and laid open the way into the centre of the Borough. An extraordinary prospect, looking up Hythe Hill.
Located in El Hussein Square, the Al-Azhar Mosque (the most blooming), established in 972 (361 H) in a porticoed style shortly after the founding of Cairo itself, was originally designed by the Fatimid general Jawhar El-Sequili (Gawhara Qunqubay, Gawhar al-Sakkaly) and built on the orders of Caliph Muezz Li-Din Allah. Located in the center of an area teaming with the most beautiful Islamic monuments from the 10th century, it was called "Al-Azhar" after Fatama al-Zahraa, daughter of the Prophet Mohamed (Peace and Prayers Be Upon Him). It imitated both the Amr Ibn El-As and Ibn Tulun mosques. The first Fatimid monument in Egypt, the Azhar was both a meeting place for Shi'a students and through the centuries, it has remained a focal point of the famous university which has grown up around it. It was under Yaqoub Ibn Cals that the mosque became a teaching institute. This is the oldest university in the world, where the first lecture was delivered in 975 AD. Today the university built around the Mosque is the most prestigious of Muslim schools, and its students are highly esteemed for their traditional training. While ten thousand students once studied here, today the university classes are conducted in adjacent buildings and the Mosque is reserved for prayer. In addition to the religious studies, modern schools of medicine, science and foreign languages have also been added.
Closed in 2003, Medfield State Hospital was used to film Shutter Island, directed by Martin Scorsese. In my opinion, along with others, it is one of many films that is underrated. Spread across 900 acres this hospital was used for psychiatric rehabilitation. Built in 1892, it included 58 buildings and had roughly 2,200 patients.

Eng-Skell Building, 1043 Howard Street, San Francisco, California. In 1900 W.A. England and H.D. Skellinger founded the Eng-Skell Company. The company made flavoring extracts for the bakery and bottling trades and specialties such as orange bitters for the bar trade. In 1930 the company built this three-story Art Deco building in SOMA. The building was designed by architect Arthur C. Griewank. It is 100,000 square feet and originally housed a laboratory, manufacturing plant, warehouse and office space. There was a Research Department with a staff of trained chemists. Somewhere along the line the company became ESCO Foods, but they are still very much in business and still occupy this building.

Flag - The Vale of the Ram District (Valdimontone)
Valdimontone is situated in the south-east of the city near Porta Romana. Traditionally, its residents were tailors.
Valdimontone's symbol is a crowned rampant ram, with a blue shield emblazoned with the letter "u" for Umberto. Its colours are red and yellow, with white trim.
It is allied with Onda (Wave) and opposed to Nicchio (Shell), its neighbour.
Valdimonte last won the Palio on 16 August 2012

Chiesa di Santa Maria dei Servi
The Church of Santa Maria dei Servi is a Romanesque style, Roman Catholic church in the Terzo of San Martino in the city of Siena, Tuscany, Italy.
The church is built on the site of the former Church of San Clement, which was acquired by the Servite order in the Medieval era. The original Basilica was built in the 13th century, but later underwent reconstruction and transformation which continued until the 15th-16th century.
The façade is simple and unadorned, with a single doorway and a rose window (indications of another can be discerned on the wall). It is in the Romanesque period style
The adjoining Campanile is likewise of the 13th century, richly embellished by four orders of windows. It was entirely restored in the 20th century. The church building stands atop it is cook entrance stairs, with views over the Duomo and the Palazzo Publico of Siena.
To the black Camel, (1, Bogner alley 5, part, conscription number 312), house sign.
Here were originally two buildings: a house was already in the second quarter of the 15th century owned by bowyers and belonged in 1455 the bowyer Erhart Fütterer of Retz and 1458 the bowyer Stefan Leyser. The other house was also owned by bowyers. Its first documentary mention dates from the year 1456. In 1527 painter Hanns Gruntmann acquired both houses. His successor in ownership the two before 1539 had developed into one, which came in 1619 in the possession of the merchant Johann Baptist Cameel, who (coming from his native city of Brno to Vienna) established a spice factory here. He named his shop "The Black Camel" and later gave the house an identical sign. Since Cameel left large debts, the building together with his two other houses city 307 and 311 (both went up in the house Bogner alley 5) in 1640 was publicly auctioned and acquired by the tradesman Andre Getto, who also the house city 320 (Hallweilsches house; 3, part) possessed. After that, however, the three buildings had different owners again.
At the beginning of the 19th century, the store, which was expanded to a wine bar (wine and delicatessen), was frequented by the better society of Vienna and was known as a breakfast parlor. Beethoven was a frequent guest who bought wine, sugar and coffee from the then owner, Mrs. Stiebitz. The upper floor of the house was home to the poet and composer Friedrich August Kanne at the beginning of the 1820s. At that time, the building belonged to the k.k. Captain Franz Galle, who according to a commemorative publication (F.J. Stiebitz: commemorative on the occasion of the demolition of the old Kameelhaus in Bogner alley, 1901), is said to have become the first victim of the cholera raging in Vienna in 1830 and to have died within three hours.
Between 1828 and 1882 there are different details about this house: According to Czeike (Felix Czeike: Historical Dictionary of Vienna) house and wine bar 1828 were owned by Joseph Stiebitz (†1852), who the adjacent house "Zu den drei Tirolern (to the three Tyroleans)" (city 313 also Bogner alley 5) had to buy in order to use its first floor premise to expand his flourishing business. In 1882, his grandson (Franz) Josef Stiebitz was the owner.
Harrer (Paul Harrer: Vienna, its houses), however, indicates that the house was divided after Gaul's death on three heirs. The wine and delicatessen, however, belonged since May 1818 to Joseph Stiebitz and two co-owners and from 1823 Joseph Stiebitz alone. The interest payable for restaurants, wineries and dwellings amounted to 6,500 guilders in 1824, which was a very high amount for the time. In 1835 Stiebitz bought the neighboring house city 313 ("To the three Tyroleans" or "Zu den drei Schweizern/To the three Swiss men") in order to expand his business. Joseph Stiebitz also made a name for himself as the "father of the poor of the city". In addition to other foundations, he supported above all the still very young Handlungskrankeninstitut (hospital) "Confraternity", for whose chapel he donated a large part of the decoration. In 1830 he was appointed general director of the bourgeois merchant profession. He was also one of the first members of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde (Society of Friends of the Music in Vienna). All parts of the house city 312 (but without the ownership rights to the shop) came under a inheritance contract from 2 May 1842 together with the house city 307 in one hand. On October 31, 1848, the house was hit by two shotgun balls, which penetrated through an iron-studded balcony in the back of the wine bar and were found only years later in an adaptation. When the troops moved into the city, nobody was allowed to show themselves on the streets or behind the windows. However, a maid ignored this ban and looked out of the window of this house, whereupon she was killed by a shotgun in front of the eyes of nineteen-year-old Rosa Stiebitz, the wife of Alois Stiebitz (son of Joseph Stiebitz). Rosa and Alois Stiebitz introduced regular music evenings in the house, in which the most important artists of the time were often and welcome guests. Between 1842 and 1882 the two houses 307 and 312 were built into one, which was acquired in 1882 by Franz Josef Stiebitz, who already owned the house city 313.
In 1901, the house together with the neighboring buildings city 313 and 314 was replaced by a new building designed by Julius Mayreder, in which the wine and delicatessen "Zum schwarzen Kameel (to the black Camel)" was again housed. It was still owned by the Stiebitz family until 1951 and was sold to the Erste Österreichische Sparkasse (First Austrian Savings Bank) this year.
From the family of Johann Baptist Cameel sprang the learned missionary and botanist P. Georg Josef Cameel (Camelius), after whom Carl Linnaeus one of him in the Philippines discovered flower "camellia" named.

Dependence of the employee on the employer
The employees in the wine and delicatessen "To the black camel" had 1818 as employees accounts with their boss, on that their salary was booked on a monthly basis. As was customary a that time, no cash was issued. Only if one could motivate that one needed cash for a special occasion, money was paid out. The boss participated from time to time in the purchases. The thriftiness of the employees was promoted in such a way that some could become self-employed after 10 or 20 years with the saved money. Even the marriage license had to give the boss. The relationship of subservience of employees was emphasized by the fact that they were called "individuals" in their contracts, even if they were in a "high position".

Zum schwarzen Kameel, (1, Bognergasse 5, Teil; Konskriptionsnummer 312), Hausschild.
Hier standen ursprünglich zwei Gebäude: Ein Haus war schon ab dem zweiten Viertel des 15. Jahrhunderts im Besitz von Bognern und gehörte 1455 dem Bogner Erhart Fütterer von Retz und 1458 dem Bogner Stefan Leyser. Auch das andere Haus gehörte Bognern. Seine erste urkundliche Erwähnung stammt aus dem Jahr 1456. Im Jahr 1527 erwarb Maler Hanns Gruntmann beide Häuser. Sein Besitznachfolger ließ die beiden vor 1539 zu einem verbauen, das 1619 in den Besitz des Handelsmannes Johann Baptist Cameel kam, der (aus seiner Vaterstadt Brünn nach Wien gekommen) hier eine Gewürzkrämerei einrichtete. Sein Geschäft benannte er "Zum schwarzen Kameel" und gab später auch dem Haus ein gleichlautendes Schild. Da Cameel große Schulden hinterließ, wurde das Gebäude gemeinsam mit seinen beiden anderen Häusern Stadt 307 und 311 (beide gingen im Haus Bognergasse 5 auf) 1640 öffentlich versteigert und vom Handelsmann Andre Getto erworben, der auch das Haus Stadt 320 (Hallweilsches Haus; Am Hof 3, Teil) besaß. Danach hatten die drei Gebäude jedoch wieder unterschiedliche Besitzer.
Anfang 19. Jahrhundert wurde der zu einer Weinstube erweiterte Laden (Wein- und Delikatessenhandlung) von der besseren Gesellschaft Wiens gern aufgesucht und war vor allem als Frühstücksstube stadtbekannt. Beethoven war ein häufiger Gast, der bei der damaligen Besitzerin, Frau Stiebitz, Wein, Zucker und Kaffee kaufte. Im oberen Stockwerk des Hauses wohnte Anfang der 20er Jahre des 19. Jahrhunderts der Dichter und Komponist Friedrich August Kanne. Zu dieser Zeit gehörte das Gebäude dem k.k. Hauptmann Franz Galle, der laut einer Gedenkschrift (F. J. Stiebitz: Gedenkschrift anläßlich der Demolierung des alten Kameelhauses in der Bognergasse. 1901) das erste Opfer der 1830 in Wien grassierenden Cholera geworden und binnen drei Stunden gestorben sein soll.
Zwischen 1828 und 1882 gibt es unterschiedliche Angaben zu diesem Haus: Laut Czeike (Felix Czeike: Historisches Lexikon Wien) waren Haus und Weinstube 1828 im Besitz von Joseph Stiebitz (†1852), der das angrenzende Haus "Zu den drei Tirolern" (Stadt 313; heute ebenfalls Bognergasse 5) dazukaufen musste, um dessen Parterrelokal zur Erweiterung seines florierenden Geschäfts zu benützen. 1882 war sein Enkel (Franz) Josef Stiebitz Besitzer.
Harrer (Paul Harrer: Wien, seine Häuser) hingegen gibt an, dass das Haus nach Galles Tod auf drei Erben aufgeteilt wurde. Die Wein- und Delikatessenhandlung gehörte jedoch seit Mai 1818 Joseph Stiebitz und zwei Mitbesitzern und ab 1823 Joseph Stiebitz allein. Der zu zahlende Zins für Lokal, Kellereien und Wohnung betrug im Jahr 1824 6.500 Gulden, was für die damalige Zeit ein sehr hoher Betrag war. 1835 (nach der bereits erwähnten Gedenkschrift 1828) kaufte Stiebitz das Nachbarhaus Stadt 313 ("Zu den drei Tirolern" oder "Zu den drei Schweizern"), um sein Geschäft zu erweitern. Joseph Stiebitz machte sich auch einen Namen als "Armenvater der Stadt". Neben anderen Stiftungen unterstützte er vor allem das noch sehr junge Handlungskrankeninstitut "Confraternität", für dessen Kapelle er einen Großteil der Ausschmückung spendete. 1830 wurde er zum Generalvorstand des bürgerlichen Handelsstandes ernannt. Er gehörte außerdem zu den ersten Mitgliedern der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde. Alle Teile des Hauses Stadt 312 (jedoch ohne die Besitzrechte am Geschäft) kamen laut einem Erbschaftsvertrag vom 2. Mai 1842 zusammen mit dem Haus Stadt 307 in eine Hand. Am 31. Oktober 1848 wurde das Haus von zwei Kartätschenkugeln getroffen, die durch einen mit Eisen beschlagenen Balkon in den hinteren Teil der Weinstube eindrangen und erst Jahre danach bei einer Adaptierung gefunden wurden. Als die Truppen in die Stadt einzogen, durfte sich niemand auf den Straßen oder hinter den Fenstern zeigen. Ein Dienstmädchen missachtete jedoch dieses Verbot und sah aus dem Fenster dieses Hauses, worauf es durch einen Flintenschuss vor den Augen der neunzehnjährigen Rosa Stiebitz, der Gattin von Alois Stiebitz (Sohn von Joseph Stiebitz), getötet wurde. Rosa und Alois Stiebitz führten im Haus regelmäßige Musikabende ein, bei denen die bedeutensten Künstler der damaligen Zeit oft und gern gesehene Gäste waren. Zwischen 1842 und 1882 wurden die beiden Häuser 307 und 312 zu einem verbaut, das 1882 von Franz Josef Stiebitz erworben wurde, der bereits das Haus Stadt 313 besaß.
1901 wurde das Haus samt den Nachbarhäusern Stadt 313 und 314 durch einen Neubau nach Plänen von Julius Mayreder ersetzt, in dem wieder die Wein- und Delikatessenhandlung "Zum schwarzen Kameel" untergebracht wurde. Es stand noch bis 1951 im Besitz der Familie Stiebitz und wurde in diesem Jahr an die Erste österreichische Sparkasse verkauft.
Aus der Familie des Johann Baptist Cameel entsproß der gelehrte Missionar und Botaniker P. Georg Josef Cameel (Camelius), nach dem Linné eine von ihm auf den Philippinen entdeckte Blume "Kamelie" benannte.

Abhängigkeit der Arbeitnehmer vom Arbeitgeber
Die Arbeitnehmer in der Wein- und Delikatessenhandlung "Zum schwarzen Kameel" hatten 1818 als Angestellte Konten bei ihrem Chef, auf die ihr Gehalt monatlich gut gebucht wurde. Nach damaligem Brauch wurde kein Bargeld ausgestellt. Nur wenn man motivieren konnte, dass man aus einem besonderen Anlass Bargeld brauchte, wurde ausbezahlt. Der Chef beteiligte sich ab und zu bei den Ankäufen. Der Sparsinn der Angestellten wurde derart gefördert, dass sich manche nach 10 oder 20 Jahren mit dem gesparten Geld selbständig machen konnten. Selbst die Eheerlaubnis hatte den Chef zu erteilen. Das Untertänigheitsverhältnis der Angestellten wurde dadurch betont, dass sie in ihren Kontrakten "Individuen" genannt wurden, auch wenn sie sich in "gehobener Stellung" befunden.

The old Seng Building along the Clybourn Corridor. This old Prairie School industrial building once was an old furniture factory. Many Chicago preservationists are angry on how quickly the city went ahead for its demolition.
This building started out planned to be the corporate headquarters for Whittle Communications in downtown Knoxville. This company was best known for 40 magazines and Channel One for schools. The two block wide building was worked on for four years and about $55 million, when the company fell apart.
Soon after the building became vacant, the federal government began looking for a location for a new federal courthouse. Acquiring this building was convenient for their needs. They were able to acquire the almost completed building for $22 million. Plus, it was conveniently located to the historic Knox County Courthouse across the street and the newer city-county building. All they had to do was retrofit some courtrooms into the building and by 1998, the Baker Courthouse was ready.

Castle Combe is a small village in Wiltshire, England, with a population of about 350. It is renowned for its attractiveness and tranquillity, and for fine buildings including the medieval church. The 14th century market cross, erected when the privilege to hold a weekly market in Castle Combe was granted, is situated where the three principal streets converge. Some small stone steps near the cross were for horse riders to mount and dismount and close by are the remains of the buttercross. The village has twice played host to the Combe Sunday event, a music extravaganza which attracted 4,000 visitors to the village in 2006.
The 4-star Manor House Hotel in the village was built in the 14th century. It has 48 rooms and 365 acres (1.5 km2) of gardens.
The village prospered during the fifteenth century, when it belonged to Millicent, the wife of Sir Stehen Scrope and then of Sir John Fastolf (1380-1459), a Norfolk knight who was the effective lord of the manor for fifty years. He promoted the woollen industry, supplying his own troops and others for Henry V's war in France.
Castle Combe is the home of a motor racing venue, Castle Combe Circuit, located on the disused RAF Castle Combe airfield. It was also used as a location for the film musical Doctor Dolittle. Raymond Austin, director/writer, filmed The Avengers and The Saint in and around the village in the late-1960s. Austin also set the action of his book, Find Me A Spy, Catch me a Traitor in the village and at the Manor. Other productions include "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd", an episode of Agatha Christie's Poirot, and the films Stardust and The Wolfman.[citation needed] Throughout September 2010, the village was used as a key filming location for Steven Spielberg's production of War Horse.
