The Carlisle Memorial Column is a 19th century monument located at the southern end of the Castle Howard Avenue on the edge of the Howardian Hills. Built to the memory of the 7th Earl of Carlisle after his death in 1864, the column was paid for by public subscription. Four architects submitted designs for the monument, including one by the Yorkshire-based architect Cuthbert Brodrick, but the design by Frederick Pepys Cockerell was chosen.
The monument consists of a central column, over seven feet in diameter and is hollow inside. The central column rests on a square platform with steps leading up on the north side. Around the square base of the column is an inscription to the 7th Earl. At each of the four corners of the platform is a pedestal surmounted with a knight's helmet, and the outer face of each pedestal bears a heraldic shield and sword with, alternately, the arms of the Howard family and the Royal Family, in recognition of the Earl's post of Viceroy of Ireland. The top is crowned by a tripod which supports an urn with flames fashioned from gilded copper. The entire structure is 120 feet high.

Hmmm, ok, this might be the Masonic Temple!
Among all the single-sheet origami models I designed during the last few days, this is the one I am most pleased with. Not least because, as opposed to the others, I had planned the folding sequence of this model from the beginning to the end and it came out exactly the way I wanted.
By the way, this is something like a simple tesselation on a hybrid hexagonal and rectangular grid wrapped around around a longitudinal axis to form a cylinder. The pattern is self-locking. No glue is needed to hold the cylindrical shape together.

This beautiful column works well at an entry or around the room. The column has lights that glow throughout the column and is topped with a 36" gold foil star balloon.
The Basilica Cistern is a large underground chamber of water with a forest of stones columns throughout the area. It is dimly lit and quite eerie with sounds of dripping water from the ceiling echoing throughout the chamber. The water itself is populated with dozens of carp, which swim above what seem to be a stone floor covered in coins tossed in by tourists for luck.
The Cistern and its columns were used in a scene in the James Bond film "From Russia with Love", where Bond travels underground in a gondola to the russian embassy.
