Structure takes a different and more intricate look at one of the worlds most famous buildings, the Eiffel Tower. We spend so long in awe at the building, its views and what it stands for that we don't always take in the leviathan nature of it's construction. Structure studies the lines, joints and crossings of this great building in black and white, high contrast images.
Students transitioned from using 2D materials to create sculptural forms to using toothpicks and candy to create 3D structures. Students were given 4 parts to build with: toothpicks, large gum drops, small gum drops, and candy corn. Students were allowed to work together or individually and tried to make the biggest structure while implementing a visual design element of their choice.

Team of undergraduates tests their hanging bench made of cardboard, cloth, and rope for the final project of Architectural Structures II.
Jim Bowsher loves local history. He loves having it come alive for people, and not just being some stuffy thing in a book. That's part of why he built what he calls the Temple of Tolerance in his backyard. Well, actually, in three backyards that he purchased to make room for the giant glacial rocks that stand at the heart of it.
Jim's also an amateur archaeologist with a penchant for finding so-called banded rocks indigenous to this part of northern Ohio - the result of volcanic activity a long, long time ago. He tracks down these enormous boulders, then moves them into place in the yard with levers, no power tools, and in doing so has created a stately, majestic backyard environment quite unlike any other we've seen.
In and around the rocks, he's added pieces from old buildings and farmsteads around Wapakoneta. When people roam around and over the Temple of Tolerance, the energies from those structures inspire dialogue and memories. And that's how history should be taught, he believes.
Jim says airplane pilots have come to his door because they couldn't believe what they saw flying over it. And oh yes, there's bluegrass music here on warm Thursday nights. You're invited.

Ebenezer Church Covered Bridge, year and the builder of this structure is unknown, a Queen Truss was utilized in the construction, it is 32 feet long and 15 feet wide, crosses Mingo Creek. The owner is the county, it is in good condition and open to vehicle traffic
The Ebenezer Bridge is one of the most popular covered bridges in Washington County today. It was moved to Mingo Creek Park from in Fallowfield Township near Charleroi, Speers and Lover, Pa. and very near to Ebenezer Methodist Church (Where it crossed the South Fork of Maple Creek) unfortunately that was located right at the intersection of present day I-70 and Expressway 43. That is what lead to the dilapidated bridge being purchased by Washington County for $ 1.00 and rehabbed for use to be put in Mingo Park.
