Housing in Broken Hill is as interesting and varied as the public buildings and ranges from simple cottages to more substantial residences built in stone, brick, or iron. The need for lightweight, easily transported building materials resulted in an almost universal use of galvinised iron for roofing, and galvanised iron or rarely weatherboard for cladding of more modest houses. Entire buildings were also relocated - Silverton buildings were moved to Broken Hill after the decline of the mining there in 1885. Galvanised iron was also used for fencing. The earliest cottages were often built without verandahs, but the need for protection from the heat meant they were soon added. Roofs are generally at a 30 - 35° pitch with either straight, concave, or bull-nose verandahs at the front of the houses.
There is a variety of configurations in house plans and elevations. The typical modest cottage - a transformation of a simple tent - had one or two rooms with rear skillions added as required. The more substantial double fronted houses were two or three rooms deep and sometimes had projecting front rooms or bays. In some cases, iron cladding on front elevations was pressed to appear like stone in order to provide a greater air of solidarity to an otherwise lightweight construction. Interiors were lined with timber panelling, pressed metal ceilings, lath and plaster wall, and ceiling linings, sometimes Hessian, newspaper, and wallpaper. Usually only the front and backs of iron houses were painted, leaving the sides and roofs in unpainted galvanised iron finish.
As these iron houses were extended, the roof from the top ridge to the rear wall continued; often a single skillion slope resulted in a low ceiling at the back of the house. This long slope of the rear roof is a unique and sometimes startling element of the extension of houses in Broken Hill. Some modest homes had been clad over with "fake brick" or "plastic timber" to conceal their humble corrugated iron origins, but in more recent times, these later changes have been reversed and original details have been reinstated.
Much of Broken Hill's housing was constructed prior to World War I (WWI). The most common style was the corrugated iron "tinny" but there were also more substantial houses constructed in stone with brick dressings based on the South Australian residential vernacular style. Some of these were houses built as church rectories or for senior mining officials. The mines provided a range of company housing including the BHP flats at Proprietary Square which were added in 1938 to the offices built in 1919. The mining companies provided low interest loans for employee housing, established housing co-operatives, and constructed housing for senior staff. Community amenities and recreational facilities were also provided.
The Rainbow Avenue dwellings in South Broken Hill date from the 1920s and other company housing, often with extensive landscaping and communal facilities, was erected during the boom period at Broken Hill in the 1940s and 1950s. Examples include the residences at Junction Circle, North Mine, Zinc Mine, and NBHC Mine.
Housing built in the city between the two world wars adopted the styles used elsewhere in Australia such as the Californian Bungalow, Neo-Tudor, and Spanish Mission. However, each style was often expressed in galvanised iron with pressed metal facades that created a unique Broken Hill character.
In the 1940s and 1950s, removal of original timber verandah posts from early cottages and replacement with elaborate concrete columns was common. In the 1960s, wrought metal posts replaced the timber posts. Many of these modest houses have now been upgraded and lovingly restored by re-exposing original corrugated iron cladding and in some cases reinstating timber verandah detailing, thereby contributing to the revival of the housing areas of Broken Hill.

The Illinois Department of Transportation, alongside Iowa Department of Transportation, Illinois and Iowa’s departments of Natural Resources, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services began the process to relocate approximately 450,000 mussels in the Mississippi River.
The mussels are being relocated as part of the new I-74 bridge over the Mississippi River between Illinois and Iowa. It is anticipated that this project will take nearly two months to complete and is one of the largest mussel relocations ever undertaken.

The bronze statue that once stood atop the Pitt County Confederate Soldiers Monument is secured for transport as the sun begins to rise on Monday, June 22. Crews worked throughout the night to disassemble the monument while hampered by equipment issues; the remainder of the monument was removed on Tuesday evening. Work was performed at night to prevent interfering with traffic, court proceedings, and businesses in the Uptown area.
On Monday, June 15, the Pitt County Board of Commissioners voted to relocate the memorial due to threat of vandalism and concern for public safety after property damage occurred during rioting in the Uptown area two weeks earlier. Following the vote to relocate the monument, County Commissioners created a committee to select a new location for the statue, which has not been determined at this time.
The monument was formally dedicated in November 1914; various groups have called for its removal from the courthouse grounds since at least the 1990’s.

This photo has been taken as part of the scientific effort of the salvage archaeologist team H.U.N.E. to document the Sudanese Arab tribe of the Manasir and their cultural landscape 'Dar al-Manasir' situated at the Fourth Cararact of the River Nile.
The homeland of the Manasir will be submerged by the reservoir lake of the Hamdab High Dam (Merowe Multi-Purpose Hydro Project) in the very near future and all inhabitants have to be relocated by the Sudanese government.

Our shipping container left on the 16th of December 2008. Ours is the blue one, third from the front. Our house was packed up and loaded into the container in 2 days. Mind you we'd spent 2 months culling and purging all that was deemed unecessary.
Hopefully with no mishaps or pirate escapades we'll see it all on the 1st January.
