"Located in narrow Queen’s Canyon just north of the geological formation known as the Garden of the Gods, Glen Eyrie is the estate of General William Jackson Palmer, the founder of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad (D&RG) and the city of Colorado Springs. What began as a relatively modest clapboard home in 1871 had evolved into the sixty-five room "castle” by 1906, with multiple improvements in between.
Both Frederick J. Sterner and Thomas MacLaren, each a prominent architect in Colorado, had a hand in the evolving design of the nearly 50-acre complex. In addition to the Tudor Revival main house, the district includes a gatekeeper’s house, schoolhouse, large carriage house, two power-generating plants, gardener’s house, dairy, granary, and many surviving historic landscape features, such as bridges and a rose garden. First listed in the National Register in 1975, the historic district was expanded in 2016 to encompass additional buildings commissioned by Palmer to complete his self-sufficient estate."

Excerpt from heritageburlington.ca:
An oustanding example of a Flemish-bond brick structure in Regency Style. The lowpitched end-gabled roof has wide eaves, decorative wood brackets, and returns. The centre front gable has an arched window and the gable ends have a quarter-pie window on either side of the chimney. The first-level windows are large. The front windows may have opened as French windows on to a verandah. They have multi-paned glass and low wood panels. The centre door is single, with sidelights and transom and similar wood panels. The door frame may be a restoration, but is well designed and executed. The front gable has some decorative bargeboard trim, added later. There is a rear open porch with a shed roof.
Built in 1850 for Donald McGregor.
Registered March 2000, which was 3 months prior to the model's release in the UK. Possibly a press car? Can't be many older than this one left.
Also note the matching green seats. These were available on models painted in Kiwi Green and the darker Rio Verde.
Excerpt from heritageburlington.ca:
This is a 2-storey building of Georgian proportions, with a shallow hipped roof and balancing slight projections on each side of the front entrance. A central portico is supported by two sets of double pillars. There is a small arched window above the portico and symmetrically placed tall narrow side windows.
Handsome massive pierced cornice brackets support the eaves of the main roof and the eaves of the side bay. This home has the original double leaf front door with a leaded glass transom panel.
The McDermott Motors Building (seen in the photograph above) was built in 1928, and designed in the Spanish Colonial Revival style by noted Waco architect Milton Scott. The building has served as an upscale automobile dealership, a National Guard Armory, and an assembly plant for warplanes during World War II. The building also embodies a method of construction and an architectural style that are distinctive of an era, reflecting the community, its economic climate and progress. As McDermott Motors (opened as a new building on November 1, 1928), Fort Fiske Wright (leased from McDermott in 1931 as the National Guard Armory until all units were activated for WWII in 1941 and named for a revered local officer who had died a hero's death on the battlefields of France during the Great War, and North American Aviation (leased in 1943 to aid in production of the B-24 "Liberator", sometimes known not so affectionately as the "Flying Boxcar", making it the site of one of Waco's most significant contributions to the country's industrial war machine), activities at this site contributed substantially to the commercial and military history of this area of Waco, Texas.
After the most noteable tenants as described above, this building was once again used as an automobile dealership selling Plymouths and DeSotos, Hill Printing and Stationery which kept arge printing presses and bookbinders upstairs while maintaining a showroom of
office supplies and commercial furniture downstairs, and a brief period as an outlet for unclaimed and damaged freight after the very destructive tornado of 1953. McDermott's building then languished vacant for nearly 20 years until it was finally sold to Homer Owen who soon opened "Rhema The Way", which manufactured and distributed 'inspirational gift items' for gift shops, department stores and religious bookstores. This business remained in the building through a couple of ownership's until 1988 when it became Caritas of Waco, a new local second-hand store. During the night of April 10, 2000, a very destructive fire engulfed the thrift shop and ended its time in the building. Since that time (2001), the building underwent renovation and today serves as the home of Hole in the Wall, a full-service printing, apparel and marketing company.
The McDermott Motors Building was nominated for and listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) on January 14, 2004 under criterion A in the areas of Commerce and Military, and under criterion C in the area of Architecture, at the local level of significance. All of the information above (and much more) was found on the original documents submitted for listing consideration that can be viewed here:

“A Native American grandfather talking to his young grandson tells the boy he has two wolves inside of him struggling with each other. The first is the wolf of peace, love and kindness. The other wolf is fear, greed and hatred. "Which wolf will win, grandfather?" asks the young boy. "Whichever one I feed," is the reply.”

The railway line built from Port Pirie to Broken Hill in 1887 was of immense economic significance to Port Pirie and South Australia. It did a great deal to underpin the development of Port Pirie and to help the colony emerge from depression in the late 1880s.

Inscription on the nearby historical marker for this bridge:
This bridge over Doe River was built early in 1882 at a cost to the county of $3000 for the bridge and $300 for the approaches. The site was chosen by J.J. McCorkle, Wiley Christian and H.M. Rentfro. The committee were Thomas E. Matson, Engineer, W.M. Folsom, J.C. Folson, J.C. Smith, Dr. James M. Cameron and J.M. Simmerly. Dr. E.E. Hunter was contractor and George Lindamood supervisor.
And, information included in the paperwork submitted to the National Register of Historic Places for inclusion of the Elizabethton Historic District stated:
At the intersection of S Riverside Drive and Hattie Avenue, runs into the Covered Bridge, a white clapboard structure built in 1882 and spanning 134 feet across the Doe River. The bridge, which has recently been restored, is wide enough to accommodate one car and a walkway. The river bank immediately surrounding the Covered Bridge is grassland with some picnic areas.

The Red Covered Bridge is a wooden, covered bridge that runs over Big Bureau Creek north of Princeton in Dover Township, Bureau County, Illinois. It was originally built in 1863, at a cost of $3,148.57.[2] The 149-foot (45 m) span is one of five remaining covered bridges in Illinois, and it is still open to traffic, though now covered with CCTV cameras. It was once part of the Peoria-Galena Trail.[3]
The bridge was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on April 23, 1975.[1]
The Wright Brothers Monument sitting atop Big Kill Devil Hill is a testament to the towering achievements of Wilbur and Orville Wright who did what no one before them could manage: manned, powered, controlled, heavier-than-air flight. To commemorate such an outstanding accomplishment a monument was erected at the site of their gliding experiments. This granite structure was designed by Alfred Easton Poor and Robert Perry Rodgers in 1928, 25 years after the first flight. Their architectural firm, Rodgers & Poor, won a contest to decide who would design the monument. Poor, who served as a pilot in the Navy in both World War I and World War II, was an already established architect with degrees from both Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania. He also had the distinction of being the president of the National Design Center for 10 years. Rodgers, who also served in the Navy during World War I, received a degree from Harvard University as well as receiving a diploma from the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris.
The design of the monument features an Art Deco style which highlights bold geometric shapes. A notable part of the monument is the inscription that reads, “In commemoration of the conquest of the air by the brothers Wilbur and Orville Wright. Conceived by genius. Achieved by dauntless resolution and unconquerable faith.” The monument also features curved, wing-like designs on either side and a lit beacon at the top which functions similarly to a lighthouse. Prior to construction of the memorial’s Mission 66 era visitor center and museum, the inside of the monument acted as a contact station. Visitors could even ascend the very narrow stairs to the top and peer out 150 feet above sea level towards where the Wright brothers flew four flights on December 17th, 1903.
Construction of the monument itself was started in 1928 with Orville Wright in attendance at the laying of the cornerstone. A local organization called the Kill Devil Hills Memorial Association (now the First Flight Society) led the efforts to protect and preserve the site, eventually gaining national support. The monument was proposed by Representative Lindsay Warren of North Carolina and Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut, who set out to convince President Coolidge and Congress of the importance of building the monument. Ultimately the funds were secured, and the “Kill Devil Hills Monument National Memorial” was established and managed by the War Department. To ensure that the monument wouldn’t be susceptible to sand erosion, Big Kill Devil Hill was sodded, and shrubs and other grasses were planted to stabilize it. Construction of the first bridges to the Outer Banks also started during this time in an effort to extend better access to the islands and to the memorial itself. In 1933 control of the monument was given to the National Park Service, and in 1953 it was officially renamed “Wright Brothers National Memorial.” The Memorial was dedicated on November 19th, 1932 with Orville again in attendance as well as prominent aviators and politicians of the time.Today the monument continues to sit atop big Kill Devil Hills and reigns over it as one of the highest points in the Outer Banks while continuing to honor the legacy of two brothers.

The Wright Brothers Monument was recorded in the National Register of Historic Places on October 15, 1966 and as a National Historic Landmark on January 3, 2001.

Stunning Sunset Spring-Like Thursday Tampa Bay (SOOC) - IMRAN®
Tampa Bay didn’t have the same brutal cold that other parts of Florida went through in the last few weeks, but it was unusually chill, especially because of the very strong winds that we had. But what a swing the temperature is made.
Today’s high was almost 80° F, and it was almost like a beautiful spring day all day. This magical moment was captured with my iPhone as a pelican sunned itself and dried its wings while a magnificent sunset spanned the horizon.

The Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee, Florida, is an architecturally and historically significant building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Capitol is at the intersection of Apalachee Parkway and South Monroe Street in downtown Tallahassee, Florida.
The Historic Capitol, sometimes called "The Old Capitol," built in 1845, was threatened with demolition in the late 1970s when the new capitol building was built. Having been restored to its 1902-version in 1982, the Historic Capitol is directly behind the new Capitol building. Its restored space includes the Governor's Suite, Supreme Court, House of Representatives and Senate chambers, rotunda, and halls. Its adapted space contains a museum exhibiting the state's political history, the Florida Historic Capitol Museum, which is managed by the Florida Legislature. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the Historic Capitol Building (Restoration) on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.
The New Tower houses executive and legislative offices and the chambers of the Florida Legislature (consisting of the Florida Senate and Florida House of Representatives).
The buildings are universally, though informally, known as the Old Capitol and the New Capitol; the former is sometimes called the Historic Capitol, or also, confusingly, the Florida State Capitol. The latter was its official name prior to the construction of the New Capitol in 1977, and was so called by the National Park Service even after the New Capitol was operating. Its legal name today, however, is the Florida Historic Capitol Museum. The New Capitol, as a whole, does not have a legal name. When it was planned, the Capitol Complex (which is a legal name) was going to consist of the House and Senate chambers, and the twenty-two-story office building.
