The Tillamook structure in north Milwaukie will carry the light rail tracks from the west side of existing heavy rail tracks to the east side. One half of the structure can be seen under construction on the right side of the photo. The Springwater Corridor Trail bridge can be seen in the upper half of the photo where it crosses the railroad tracks. The SE Tacoma St/Johnson Creek MAX Station is at the top left.

This structure is about two feet tall and was built in front of the bunker mounds. It wasn't clear who built it or what its purpose is.
struts were made by wrapping newspaper around dowels. for some struts, the dowel was left inside the rolled up newspaper.
This amazing glass couture piece Structures of Self was recently modeled by one of the collaborating artists during the new Beakerhead festival of science, art and engineering. The idea to collaborate on an a photoshoot that paired the alien/bug like garment with the 40 foot RayGun Gothic Rocketship during the setting sun, made for some pretty creative images

George Hubbard Clapp Hall is a six-story Gothic Revival structure designed by Trautwein & Howard in 1956. The primary facility of the University of Pittsburgh Department of Biological Sciences, it contains laboratories, classrooms, a greenhouse, and an amphitheater-style lecture hall with 404 seats.
Clapp Hall's exterior and interior spaces have been described as a mix of Collegiate Gothic and Art Deco. The building features a diagonally-positioned entrance that creates a direct axis with the Cathedral of Learning which is framed in Clapp Hall's stone portal entryway. The building is clad in textured Indiana limestone to match the stone used on the Cathedral of Learning.
The University of Pittsburgh, a state-related research university, commonly referred to as Pitt, was originally founded as Pittsburgh Academy in 1787 on what was then the American frontier. Pitt evolved into the Western University of Pennsylvania with an alteration to its charter in 1819, and upon relocating to its current campus in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh in 1908, the school received its current moniker, the University of Pittsburgh. For most of its history Pitt was a private institution, until it became part of the Commonwealth System of Higher Education in 1966.
The Schenley Farms Historic District, part of the Schenley Farms-Oakland Civic District, is noted for its late 19th And 20th Century Revivals architecture, and home to a large portion of the campus of the University of Pittsburgh.

North of the SE Tacoma St/Johnson Creek Station, the light rail tracks will travel on a structure that carries trains over the ramp connecting Tacoma Street to McLoughlin Boulevard/Hwy 99E. The concrete girders of the structure are the white lines just north of Tacoma Street in this photograph.
Fracture-filling gypsum ("selenite") from the Eocene of Canada. (13.8 centimeters across at its widest) (Centre for Planetary Science and Exploration collection, London, Ontario, Canada)
The Eocene-aged (39 Ma) Haughton Impact Structure is located on Devon Island in northern Canada. The target rocks were Middle and Lower Paleozoic sedimentary rocks, floored by Precambrian metamorphic rocks. Clasts of these surface and subsurface target rocks occur in abundance at the Haughton Structure, eroding from impact breccias. Shattercones also occur, sometimes in sufficient abundance to trip over them.
The rock seen here is a very post-impact, low-temperature vein filling of macrocrystalline gypsum ("selenite").
This magnificent structure was first erected as a Jesuit college (Colégio da Companhia de Jesus) in 1610. It was destroyed by fire in 1670 and rebuilt in 1674. It became the Governor's Palace (Palácio dos Capitães-Generais) after the Jesuits were expelled from all Portuguese territories in 1759 and served in that function until the colonial administration was moved to Lourenço Marques (now Maputo) in 1898. After that, it became the residence of the district governor.
After independence in 1975, the Palácio de São Paulo (usually referred to as Governor's Palace in English) was converted into a museum. It displays an eclectic collection of colonial furniture, art, a maritime exhibit, and other memorabilia. The Capela de São Paulo which is part of the complex is noted for its 17th century pulpit and altar from the Portuguese Goa colony (India).
The monument is dedicated to the Portuguese navigator Vasco de Gama who first landed here in 1498.
SYLMAR - A vegetation fire quickly burned across a large open space, with neighborhoods on all sides. Firefighters defended homes and extinguished the flames without damage to any structures.

The Los Angeles Fire Department responded to a brush fire at 1:54 PM on Thursday on the 15200 block of West Lakeside Street, where firefighter's initially found one-quarter-acre of medium brush on fire. Flames quickly spread across several acres of grass, fueled by 10 mph winds. Neighborhoods surrounded the large area of vegetation. The incident commander assigned several groups of fire companies to structure protection, defending at least 50 homes during the course of the fire.
Over one hundred LAFD firefighters responded by ground and air, along with assistance from LA County FD, LAFD Crew 3 and LAFD CERT teams, to stop all forward progress in one hour and forty minutes. The fire burned a total of 28 acres of vegetation, but did not damage any of the nearby homes. One patient had a minor complaint, and was evaluated on scene and released. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

The Cartersville Bank, located in Cartersville, Cumberland County, Virginia, was built around 1900. It’s a very small, 1-story brick structure with slate roof. It has a front gable with returns, and the bargeboard is full, consisting of vertical wood slats that give a scalloped appearance above the windows and door. The front windows are 4/4 sash, and the entrance is a double-leaf wooden door, each with a single long vertical pane. The bank served a very small community and is noticeable for its absence of columns, symbolic of a financial institution’s stability. As part of the Cartersville Historic District, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, June 10, 1993 #93000505. Cartersville is on a bluff above the James River.

At 9:53PM on December 16, 2020 the Los Angeles City Fire Department responded to 20150 W Sunburst St for a reported structure fire.
The first arriving fire companies found a one story, commercial building with fire through the roof and requested additional resources. The 28,556 square foot building, built in 1981, was well involved in fire and a decision was quickly made to transition to a defensive mode.
Truck companies put ladder pipes into operation and firefighters used large diameter hand lines to hit the target from all sides. Crews successfully defended the adjacent structures from sustaining damage.
Ultimately, over 120 firefighters working under the leadership of Assistant Chief Corey Rose achieved a knockdown in one hour and thirty-four minutes. One firefighter was transported to the hospital with serious but non-life threatening burn injuries.
The concrete, tilt-up building sustained heavy damage, to include roof collapse, which left it dangerously vulnerable to further collapse of the walls. Consequently, the Department of Building and Safety red-tagged the structure for safety purposes. Overhaul operations and cause investigation were held off until morning while fire companies remained on scene in a fire watch. The RS3 Robotic Firefighting Vehicle was also on scene to assist with interior operations if needed through the night.
