BOXPOP® BLOOMS AT HALL OF FLOWERS
situation
Home to warm weather and sunny disposition, the Hall of Flowers trade show hosted in Palm Springs, CA is the place to be for the cannabis business owner. Featuring the best and most innovate products in the cannabis marketplace, the Hall of Flowers showcases the innovate products, people and ideas leading this booming business space. In attendance at this intimate conference was cannabis device creator Ispire. Makers of premium cannabis vapes, Ispire needed an activation layout that would match their top-quality and customizable products. Hoping for an engaging space that would flourish at the Hall of Flowers, Ispire turned to the BoxPop® team to make it happen.
solution
To create their inspired activation space, Ispire decided on BoxPop® and their popular 20’ single container. Featuring a full flip-down stage door, the entire front of the container would lower to form an impressive open-concept layout with expanded real estate. Wired with a main electrical panel, LED lighting, and even a cooling ceiling fan this BoxPop® was a tasteful blend of performance and practicality. Rounded out with a full backwall branding package, 3M decals and a custom paint job in modern matte white, and this event space for Ispire was as sleek as their select devices. Completed by a stair-access rooftop lounge for patrons, Sintra tabletops with Ispire logos and even a disco ball to bring the party atmosphere, this was one activation space that was sure to get high marks at the Hall of Flowers.
impact
Seeking out an activation space that would excite and intrigue as much as their attractive cannabis devices, Ispire handpicked BoxPop® for the Hall of Flower’s expo. “The BoxPop® team really anticipated all our needs, and was well prepared,” said Rick Egan, Ispire CMO, “(they) helped us show our best.” Much like the multi-use aspect of Ispire vapes, BoxPop® is an investment that can keep impressing over and over. “The container will be for all our outdoor events” said Egan, “we can use it to create social content, do shows, and do different types of things within this backdrop to get multi-use out of it.”

Maricopa County, AZ
Listed: 05/10/2005
The Buckhorn Baths Motel is significant at the state level under Criterion A, for its role in the development of tourism in twentieth-century Arizona, and under Criterion C, as an example of the Pueblo Revival style as manifested in commercial tourist architecture.
The Buckhorn Baths is the best-preserved historic mineral springs resort in Arizona, thanks in large measure to the fact that it was in operation as recently as 1999 and remained under a single owner throughout its history, without any major changes being made after its development in the 1940s. It also is representative of an important phase in the evolution of tourist lodging in Arizona and elsewhere in the United States, namely, the transformation of the motor court into the motel, which rapidly became the dominant form of lodging along highways across the country.
Finally, the Buckhorn Baths is an excellent and well-preserved example of the Pueblo Revival style, and in particular of how that style was used by the early developers of Arizona's modem tourist industry. By building a spa and motel in a "native" style and with materials that were indigenous to the region, the Sligers created a tourist environment with the romantic qualities and regional character necessary to attract patrons from across the country.
The development of the Buckhorn Baths began in 1936, when Theodore W. "Ted" and Alice Sliger bought a parcel of land east of Mesa and adjacent to U.S. Highways 60, 80, and 89. Although the surrounding land was almost entirely undeveloped desert, well outside the city limits of Mesa, it fronted on one of Arizona's most popular tourist routes, connecting the cities of the Salt River Valley not only with Florence and Tucson to the south but also with central Arizona, the Mogollon Rim, and the White Mountains in eastern Arizona.
In 1939, hoping to develop their own source of water, the Sligers sunk a well. They struck water, but what came up was far too hot to drink-112 degrees out of the ground-and filled with minerals. However, recognizing that a mineral baths would be a good tourist attraction, the Sligers capitalized on their new find by developing the hot springs. They built a bathhouse capable of serving 75 patrons each day, and cottages that allowed patrons to stay overnight. The Sligers continued to operate the gas station and store, as well as a cafe, but soon the mineral baths and motel operation eclipsed their other enterprises. At its peak, the motel could accommodate a hundred overnight guests. It offered patrons a cafe and dining room, a beauty parlor and gift shop, a post office, the museum with its collection of more than four hundred taxidermy specimens and assorted Indian relics (which also served as a lobby and television room), and a desert golf course with eighteen holes. Over the succeeding years, four additional hot water wells were dug and a contract post office was opened in 1956-it remained at the Buckhorn until 1983-but otherwise little changed at the resort.
The Buckhorn Baths is considered significant at the state level because, while there are a good number of Pueblo Revival tourist properties from this period still standing in Arizona, there are none that are as well preserved as this one and associated with a much rarer and less well-preserved component of the state's tourist economy, namely, mineral hot springs. Also, because OMS No. 1024-0018 Buckhorn Baths Motel Maricopa County, Arizona
the Buckhorn Baths is located on a major thoroughfare that passes through the state's largest metropolitan area, it has become something of a landmark for Arizonans - a symbol of a vanished world of leisurely desert tourism that has been overwhelmed by the urbanization (and suburbanization) of Phoenix and the Salt River Valley.
Historic 1910 Canadian Pacific Railway Station in Banff, Alberta. The station was designated as a Heritage Railway Station under the Heritage Railway Stations Protection Act in 1991. It was listed on the Canadian Register of Historic Places in 2006.
The Canadian Register’s statement on the site states:
“The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) Station at Banff is directly linked to the development of Canada’s national park system and the evolution of Canada’s tourist industry. The current Banff station reflects the dramatic increase in visitors to Banff National Park during the first decade of the 20th century, and the CPR’s continuing commitment to improving visitor facilities within the park.
The Banff station was designed in the Arts-and-Crafts style popular in mainstream architecture at the time of its construction. In its materials and treatment it loosely follows the rustic aesthetic adopted as the prevailing architectural theme for Canada’s national parks.”

Heritage Park Plaza is a public park in downtown Fort Worth designed by the internationally-acclaimed landscape architect Lawrence Halprin (1916-2009). The Heritage Plaza, designed in conjunction with the U.S. Bicentennial program and located on the founding site of the city, incorporates a set of interconnecting outdoor rooms constructed of concrete that featured flowing water walls, channels, and pools. In addition to the water features, the outdoor rooms contain plant materials in a structured grid pattern that includes upper and lower lawns. An elevated walkway over the bluff grants access to vistas across the Trinity River Valley, much like the 19th-century military fort that once occupied this site. Today, Heritage Park represents an exceptionally significant example of modern landscape design in the United States.

Exposition Park dates back to Agricultural Park (basically a fairground) in 1872. In 1885, the state, county, and city purchased the land. It was renamed Exposition Park in 1910. The State Exposition Building was added in 1910. The Los Angeles County Museum of History, Science, and Art opened here in 1913. The Memorial Coliseum opened in 1923. The Rose Garden was added in 1927. The art museum moved out to Wilshire Boulevard in the 1960s and the building is now the expansive Natural History Museum and the State Exposition Building is now the California Science Center (which include the old State Armory). The Natural History Museum is on the National Register #75000434, the Rose Garden is on the National Register #91000285, and the Memorial Coliseum is on the National Register #84003866 and is also a National Historic Landmark.
The AB® Collection is made for even the most difficult of terrains. It accommodates any design that calls for a larger stone. The blocks within the collectin can be used on their own or combined for beautifully weaved Ashlar patterns for dramatic hardscape treatments or simple projects that enhance the beauty and character of any outdoor space.
The Muskingum County Courthouse in Zanesville, Ohio and opened in 1877. It is on the National Register of Historic Places #73001515.
Old Stone Row was built by the 2nd U.S. Infantry between 1816-1819 as part of a permanent safeguard against attack from the north. A 40-acre site was selected for twin rows of officers quarters (Stone Row) flanked by perpendicular rows of enlisted men's quarters, forming an open quadrangle overlooking Black River Bay. It was nearly abandoned in 1877 following a fire which destroyed half of Stone Row. Due to the intervention of Ulysses S. Grant, assigned here after graduating from West Point, Stone Row was rebuilt and the historic post remained active.
Madison Barracks was one of the oldest Army forts in the East. It closed right after World War II and was pretty much abandoned until the 1980s. Most of the buildings on the old post have been adaptively reused into condos, apartments, a grocery store, and several restaurants. Some buildings still await restoration/renovation/adaptive reuse.

Arcadia, Florida
Listed 8/6/2013
Reference Number: 13000578
The Micajah T. Singleton House is significant at the local level under Criterion C in the area of Architecture. It is a distinctive example of a two-story Frame Vernacular residence built in the late 19th century that was later expanded to the rear. It is one of the few remaining examples of a large pioneer home constructed in Arcadia and DeSoto County before the beginning ofthe 20th century. The house exhibits some features of Craftsman style construction in alterations to the two-story veranda and carport which were probably made in the 1920s. The house largely retains its c. 1891 appearance. Windows, doorways, wall finishes, and hardware are mostly original. The house exhibits many features of late 19th century construction in Florida through its use of materials, massing, and simple decorative details. Except for the enclosure of the formerly open porch at the rear of the house to create additional living and utility spaces, the house largely retains its c. 1891 appearance.

Orphan Works Act
If you don’t register every photo and work of art in government certified private databases, you are about to give the legal right for anyone to infringe on your copyright.
“The Orphan Works Act of 2008”, (H.R. 5889) and the “Shawn Bentley Orphan Works Act of 2008” (S.2913), were released to the House of Representatives and the Senate recently. While at first glance the law seems to be a ‘last resort’ for a search for the owner of any photograph, artwork or sculpture, the devil, as they say, is in the details.
An “orphan”, as it relates to this legislation, is an original creative work such as a photograph, graphic image, or sculpture, which is still protected by its term of copyright, but the copyright holder can’t be found. Actually, this bill makes it easy for searchers to pretend it’s hard not to find copyright holders!
REGISTRIES WILL REMOVE YOUR COPYRIGHT PROTECTION!

Make yourself be heard. Protect your creations. Every voice counts and so does your right to control your own creations. YOU NEED TO WRITE LETTERS NOW!

Putnam, Connecticut
Listed 7/28/2014
Reference Number: 14000435
Located on the Quinebaug River in Putnam, Cargill Falls Mill, as it is known today, is an expansive mill property that reflects the early development, growth and nearly continuous operation of the textile industry in northeastern Connecticut. Fueled by an abundant supply of water power, the site supported a variety of early milling operations and later became the location of Windham County's first cotton mill. Expanded and modified in the mid-nineteenth century to accommodate the production of woolen goods, the twenty building complex, with structures dating from 1806, represents more than 178 years of mill architecture. The mill's prime location, successful entrepreneurship, and access to immigrant populations and rail lines, promoted the development of what was to become the downtown core of Putnam, Connecticut. The Cargill Falls Mill property meets the National Register of Historic Places Criterion A as a property ""associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history."" It is also significant under Criterion C as a significant reflection of the various industrial buildings constructed here to suit a multitude of operations over more than two centuries.
**Fort Garland** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 70000156, date listed 1970-02-26
On CO 159, 1 block S of U.S. 10
Fort Garland, CO (Costilla County)
Of the original fourteen adobe buildings, six now stand as a museum and monument to the early military efforts within what is now Colorado.
The fort was constructed in 1858 to replace Fort Massachusetts, six miles to the north. At that time the area was part of the Territory of New Mexico. General construction was adobe plastered with mud and whitelime. Roofs were of sod while floors were laid board. The arrangement of the buildings formed a rectangle about the parade ground with an ice house located near a pond.
Fort Garland was constructed in 1858 as a replacement of the camp known as Fort Massachusetts which was six miles to the north. At that time the area was part of the Territory of New Mexico. Fort Garland was named after the commander of the Territory of New Mexico, Colonel Brevet Brigadier General John Garland. The original units which constructed the Fort were Company E, U. S. Mounted Riflemen; and Company A, 3rd U.S. Infantry.
The purpose of the Fort was as a base of operations against hostile Indians and to protect the settlers of the San Luis Valley. During the outbreak of the Civil War, the Fort wasf manned by volunteers; the regulars participating in the main theaters of the War. In 1866, Colonel Kit Carson with a regiment of New Mexico Volunteers was assigned to man Fort Garland. (1)
