Along Eiðsgrandi in Reykjavík, although we saw these structures in many places around the city's waterfront. They have something to do with Reykjavík's energy company.

The first structures to be built on this site were six small houses constructed by Colonel John Tayloe III in 1816. The current hotel was founded by Henry Willard, a former chief steward on the steamer "Niagara" on the Hudson River, in 1847; when he leased the six buildings from Col. Tayloe, combined them into a single structure, and enlarged it into a four-story hotel he renamed Willard's Hotel. The present 12-story structure, designed by famed hotel architect Henry Janeway Hardenbergh, opened in 1901. It suffered a major fire in 1922 which caused $250,000 (equivalent to $4,550,696 as of 2023), in damages. Among those who had to be evacuated from the hotel were Vice President Calvin Coolidge, several U.S. senators, composer John Philip Sousa, motion picture producer Adolph Zukor, newspaper publisher Harry Chandler, and numerous other media, corporate, and political leaders who were present for the annual Gridiron Dinner. The Willard family sold its share of the hotel in 1946, and due to mismanagement and the severe decline of the area, the hotel closed without a prior announcement on July 16, 1968. The building sat vacant for years, and numerous plans were floated for its demolition. In 1975, the National American Indian Council announced it had purchased the building for its headquarters. It eventually fell into a semi-public receivership and was sold to the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation. They held a competition to rehabilitate the property and ultimately awarded it to the Oliver Carr Company and Golding Associates. The two partners then brought in the InterContinental Hotels Group to be a part owner and operator of the hotel. The Willard was subsequently restored to its turn-of-the-century elegance and an office-building wing was added. The hotel was reopened on August 20, 1986. It is currently a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. 1401 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C. 22 December 2024

This house is located on the Coonley Estate and joined with some of the other structures. I assumed this part was also by Wright, but there seems to be little accessible information on it. Perhaps, it is a later construction in a similar style.

A vehicle fire in a fully loaded equipment and hay barn bring mutual aid from CT,NY, and MA . Unfortunately the fast moving fire totally destroyed the structure and it's contents.

At Richat Structure
The Richat Structure, also called Guelb er Richât (Arabic قلب الريشات Qalb ar-Rīšāt), the Eye of Africa,or Eye of the Sahara [circular reference] is a prominent circular feature in the Sahara's Adrar Plateau, near Ouadane, west–central Mauritania, Northwest Africa. It is an eroded dome, 40 kilometres (25 mi) in diameter, exposing sedimentary rock in layers which appear as concentric rings. Igneous rock is exposed inside and there are spectacular rhyolites and gabbros which have undergone hydrothermal alteration and a central megabreccia. The structure is also the location of exceptional accumulations of Acheulean archeological artifacts.
