The Tuthill Lighting store on Monroe Ave, Rochester, NY. It's lit up like this all year round and so it always makes me feel festive when I see it. It's kind of silly but i really love the font that is used for the "Tuthill Lighting" sign. To me it's got an "early 80's Britain" feel about it, but i don't know why!
Carnegie Hall at 881 7th Ave. was designed by architect William Burnet Tuthill and built by industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. The venue has 3,671 seats, divided among three auditoriums: Stern Auditorium, a five-story auditorium with 2,804 seats; 599-seat Zankel Hall; and 268-seat Joan and Sanford I. Weill Recital Hall.
Carnegie Hall, originally the Music Hall, was constructed between 1889 and 1891 as a venue shared by the Oratorio Society of New York and the New York Symphony Society. The hall was owned by the Carnegie family until 1925, after which Robert E. Simon and then his son, Robert E. Simon Jr., became owner. Carnegie Hall was proposed for demolition in the 1950s in advance of the New York Philharmonic relocating to Lincoln Center in 1962. Though Carnegie Hall is designated a National Historic Landmark and protected by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, it has not had a resident company since the New York Philharmonic moved out. Carnegie Hall was renovated multiple times throughout its history, including in the 1940s and 1980s.

The Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) has begun work to upgrade the electric delivery system supplying 2,659 customers in Eastport.
The project improvements include upgrading approximately 6,000 feet of primary conductor on South Old Country Road between Union Drive and North Bay Avenue as well as upgrading poles and secondary conductor as necessary and installing a new load break switch on Tuthill Avenue. The upgrades will make electric service in the Eastport area more reliable by increasing the electric capacity and strengthening the circuit. Additionally, these upgrades will help to reduce the frequency of outages and their duration if they do occur.

GT ONE Concept by Tuthill Porsche. A homage to the Porsche GT1 Race Car which won the Le Mans 24 Hour Race in 1998
The Perelman Stage in the Stern Auditorium located at the World famous Carnegie Hall on 57th Street in Manhattan. Acoustically remarkable, it is beloved by audiences and performers alike. The late Isaac Stern said “It has been said that the hall itself is an instrument,” and also said “It takes what you do and makes it larger than life.” This auditorium was named after Isaac Stern back in 1997. The auditorium’s architect William Burnet Tuthill who was himself a gifted amateur cellist, had never designed a concert hall before. Tuthill went to work studying the construction of concert halls throughout the world with Dankmar Adler and the contemporary science of acoustics of his time period to come up with the final design. The final design which included an extended stage seen in this image, an elliptical shape with smooth interior surfaces and the domed ceiling result in sounds soft and loud that are literally audible from every seat in the house. At Carnegie Hall it really can be said, there isn’t a bad seat in the house. flic.kr/p/pW2gk6
An unexpected but welcome Birthday present. I was born and Cornwall, so it has special significance.
Everyone will have heard of Richard Trevithick and Donald Healey, but there a lot of small scale manufacturing that has taken place over the years.
I was particularly intrigued by the Land Master, which was produced not far from my childhood home in the late 1970s & early 1980s. I had never heard of it, let alone ever see one.
The book is by Peter Tuthill , published in 2007, but doesn't seem to have as ISBN number.
Many thanks to Neil!

The 2nd annual College Bash, welcoming students at the start of the new semester, took place behind the library in the Tuthill courtyard. The event featured food, games, giveaways, craft activities, and entertainment.
Today, we went to the Mt. Sinai Congregational Church Cemetery. It dates back to the 1700s and some of the most "famous" Long Island names are represented here...Davis, Miller, Tuthill.
