Today I'm telling you the story of this ill-fated site in Gleadow Street, Invermay. It sits in the old industrial port section of Launceston, and that sadly meant that when the terrible floods of 1929 struck, the hopes that were established here when the Rapson Tyre Company built this factory were quickly dashed. The Great Depression in the early 30s put an end to its economic future entirely.
And as I explained in my previous photo this morning, more disaster was to come. A fire that destroyed the warehouse of wool merchant L.W. Smith in 1942. trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/91491921/8140849
So this old factory, with its proud smoke stack standing still, has been through quite an evolution. Today it is home to a small welding company. The sign "The Academy" relates to the property next door. That too has enjoyed a less than prosperous history. "The Academy" was a fitness gym that has now closed for good.
From a photographic point of view, we need to enjoy these buildings while they last, because they won't be around for too much longer. Mind you, that brickwork in the smoke stack is so good it might outlast the Tower of London.
Academy Street is an integral part of the historic Old Town. It originally formed the defensive North East edge, but later became the industrial area with iron works opening, helped by the railway bringing growth and development to the area. The street was originally New Street, before it was renamed Academy Street after the school.
Like the title said. He's about 10-11 here. Don't mind th eye brows XD I guess it's better to be black lol
On his first day of Acedemy he was walking with Ruki (10-11) and was thinking about his first day.
Ruki: What're you nervous about Kagura-kun?
Kagura: Well, I just hope that everything'll go well on our first day, that all.
Ruki: Don't worry, it'll go well. We'll meet new freinds there. I can't wait to see Neji-kun and Sasuke-kun there.
Behind the fence near the Equinox Hotel in Manchester, Vermont on the trail to Equinox Pond is the Burr and Burton Academy. Established in 1829, a private, non-profit boarding school.

A recent development the Royal Academy is already attracting students from all around the Nine Kingdoms – and beyond.
Its library is beyond compare and well-stocked with ancient scrolls and modern theses alike. Uniquely to the Nine Kingdoms the Academy was able to hire both renowned scholars and statesmen whose combined expertise provide a treasure trove to the students.

I hope you like my second build in my series of medieval fantasy creations that I started recently with my windmill. Both are for the RPG "Nine Kingdoms" on RogueBricks and were good fun to make.
As usual I used this as an excuse to play with new (at least to me) techniques – in this case I must have been quite fond of hockey sticks.. I'm also delighted that I can finally present the first feather tree I'm truly happy with – it was a long time in the making and I finally cracked it recently! :)
As usual many thanks to César, Ben and Chris for always being there for feedback and sparring – and for listening to me moping about trees ;-)
The Royal Scottish Academy of Art and Architecture (RSA) is an independently funded organisation which supports the creation, understanding and enjoyment of the visual arts in Scotland. Based within the Royal Scottish Academy building, the RSA runs a year-round programme of exhibitions, artist opportunities and related educational talks and events which support artists at all stages of their careers. The RSA also holds an extensive collection and archive.
Led by eminent artists and architects, the RSA embodies a wealth of professional experience in Fine Art and Architecture, with many RSA members taking a leading role in higher education and many of the leading cultural institutions in Scotland.
The ‘Scottish Academy’ was founded in 1826 by a group of eleven artists. It was created with the aim of creating an academy of fine arts instructing students at no charge, to present an annual exhibition open to all artists of merit and maintain a library devoted to the fine arts.
The Academy held its first exhibition in 1827 and in 1835 had been granted permission to lease space within the Royal Institution building on the Mound for its annual exhibition. By 1838, the Academy had gained a Royal Charter (and was now known as the Royal Scottish Academy) and it continued to grow in significance and status throughout the nineteenth century, training young artists and looking after its collection for the benefit of students and the wider public.
The founders of the RSA also held a strong desire that Scotland should have a National Gallery of its own and as they continued to expand and place demands on the space within the Royal Institution, it was clear that they required new premises. Therefore, when a new purpose built gallery was designed and constructed in the 1850’s, the Royal Scottish Academy moved in alongside the newly created National Gallery of Scotland (today part of the Scottish National Gallery), hosting its exhibitions within the gallery, as well as having its council room, library and life school within the building. It continued to teach Fine Art in the gallery until the Edinburgh College of Art was formed in 1907.
In 1910, it was decided that the RSA should be transferred back into the Royal Institution Building and be awarded permanent tenancy of office space and the right to hold its annual exhibition within the building. The building then became known as ‘The Royal Scottish Academy’. In return, the RSA gifted ninety-six paintings and sculptures and approximately two-thousand drawings to the National Gallery of Scotland, and are still part of the national collection.
The latest phase in the history of the RSA saw the construction of an underground link between the Royal Scottish Academy Building and the National Gallery of Scotland (as it was then known). Award-winning architects John Miller and Partners rose to the challenge of redeveloping the buildings for modern use.
The Royal Scottish Academy building reopened in 2004 and is now a world-class exhibition space, while the underground Gardens Level houses a range of visitor facilities and education spaces. The Royal Scottish Academy Building now plays host to a variety of exhibitions programmed by the National Galleries of Scotland, the Royal Scottish Academy of Art and Architecture, and others.
