Belvidere May 1
The vestry meeting of the Church of St Philip, Belvidere, near Marrabel, was held on the 25th ult particulars of which have already been published.
The Church of St Philip, Belvidere is pleasantly situated on an eminence about two miles and a half from Marrabel, in the vicinity of a number of Episcopalian residents. In its establishment there was much praiseworthy zeal shown. Mr Levi Broadbent not only gave a handsome donation of £100, but an acre of ground on which the church stands. The church, though still requiring to be plastered, and sundry other little matters, is comfortable and of adequate size. Its floor is of brick, and it is furnished with neat cedar sittings. There is an elevated deal platform for administering the service, enclosed with neat cedar railing.
The church is also used for a school which is much needed in this quarter: the distance either to Marrabel or Hamilton being too far for the children to walk. The number of children now in attendance is not so large as it was a short time since owing to ploughing and sowing. The parents regret keeping them away, being extremely satisfied with their progress under the present teacher. The intention of the Rev J B Titherington was to conduct the Church service every alternate Sunday, but as that gentleman has to attend Auburn, Chingford, Riverton (in the latter service morning and evening) and here it is more than he could do to attend personally each time, so he was obliged to appoint lay readers to assist him.

Stained-glass window in St Philip's Church, Belvidere, South Australia, was installed as a memorial to the district's pioneers who built the church nearly 100 years ago.
Granddaughter of pioneer Levi Broadbent, 84-year-old Mrs John Rowett was prevented by illness from attending the dedication ceremony at the church, so a special call was made by the rector, the Rev Phillip Smith, at her home in Marrabel township. Mrs Rowett enjoyed telling her callers the story of the building of the church which she had heard from her mother. She described how the pioneers erected it themselves without help of an architect or trained builders.
Names of many members of the congregation who attended the dedication of a new stained-glass window and stone altar at little St Philip's Church of England, Belvidere, SA, on a recent Sunday morning matched those on the tombstones in the spick and span cemetery in the church grounds.
It was as though those named on the tombstones - Levi Broadbent, Hannah Sheppard, Mally Gill, James Hyde, John Dart, Samuel Dorrington. the Bradshaws, the Penneys, and others who founded, built, and supported the little church in the middle of last century - still directed its affairs.
But in place of Samuel Dorrington, the first warden and donor of the first 2000 bricks to build the church, there is his great-great-grandson, Colin Dorrington, as warden today. And the great-great grandson of Levi Broadbent, who gave the two acres of land and many building materials m 1856, is the other young warden, Stan Rowett.
In records dated 1861 Samuel Dorrington's gift of bricks is valued at £5. Today it would be worth about £35.
Octogenarian Robert Gill, who gave £100 to the fund for the window and another £100 for church renovations, is a son of Mally Gill and grandson of Levi.
Mrs P M Murray, who with her husband gave the altar as a memorial to Mrs Murray's parents, Mary and James Hyde, is a granddaughter of William and Elizabeth Bradshaw.
Most of the congregation of more than 200 are related-and are descendants of those pioneers.
The descendants of the pioneers love their church. They revere their antecedents. So when it was suggested five years ago that the white-anted, isolated little church, set on a hilltop among undulating farmlands, about 65 miles north of Adelaide, should be moved to the nearest township of Marrabel, the plan was resisted strenuously.
Set in Scrub Oaks on a hilltop, St Philip's Church of England was renovated and freshly painted for the special service to dedicate its new stained-glass memorial window and stone altar. The window was made in Brisbane.
A committee discussed the cost of renovations, and before long the required sum was raised. Then it was decided to install a stained-glass window as a memorial to the district's pioneers. Within a few days the £400 needed was in hand.
In many ways the church is now not quite as Levi Broadbent and his co-workers built it. White ants, weather, and time have made replacements necessary through the years. It is still an architect's nightmare with its queer angles and crooked lines.
But new paint, plaster, and loving hands have made it fresh, clean, and whole.
It has been transformed with a gay red roof, cream exterior and interior walls, a colourful carpet runner, and freshly varnished pews. The new window and altar have given it added dignity.
The window, a beautiful piece of Australian craftsmanship, from Brisbane, is full of rich colour and has as its main design the figure of St Philip, patron saint of the little church. Eleven feet high and five feet wide, it surmounts the altar, which is made of handsomely marked stone from the Mount Lofty ranges.
An informal luncheon was to have been served under the scrub oaks surrounding the church after the dedication service, but because of a heatwave and high bushfire hazard this plan was abandoned and dozens of cars drove off to Marrabel for a buffet luncheon in the decorated local hall.
Well-known identity Mrs John Rowett (mentioned earlier) who is aged 84 and is a granddaughter of Levi Broadbent, could not attend because she was ill, so many callers stopped at her home on their way to the hall.
Mrs Rowett, who has a long memory and a clear voice, enjoyed telling them the story of the building of the church which she had heard from her mother.
Hannah Broadbent, she said, carted all the water required in the building of the church. Hannah took it in a cask on a one-horse sledge up the hill every day to the masons, who were three brothers, George, Tom, and Charlie Sheppard.
Hannah and Charlie Sheppard fell in love and theirs was the first marriage in the church. Their son Charlie, who died recently aged 89, was the first child christened there.
Although the church and a house or two are all that is left of the old settlement people of the district still refer to them as being "at Belvidere". But Marrabel is the community's township.
Organist for half a century, Mrs P M Murray was at her seat at the harmonium in St Philip's Church at Belvidere, with her husband beside her. Mr and Mrs Murray gave the new stone altar at a memorial to Mrs Murray's parents, James and Mary Hyde. The Murray's home is the nearest to the church and it about a quarter of a mile distant. They have a farm and grazing property, like many other members of the congregation. Ref: Australian Women's Weekly Wednesday 8 April 1953.
Link with a Founder of Church at Belvidere. Mrs Gus Wurst, of Gawler East, attended the dedication of a stained-glass window and stone altar at little St Phillip's Church of England, Belvidere (near Marrabel) recently. She is a great grand-daughter of Levi Broadbent, one of the pioneers responsible for the erection of the church in the middle of the last century. Members of the third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh generations of the family were present at the ceremony.

Today, federal, state, and local leaders joined JAXPORT and the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Jacksonville District to celebrate the completion of the Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project through JAXPORT’s Blount Island Marine Terminal. The project deepened 11 miles of the federal shipping channel—from the sea buoy to Blount Island—to a depth of 47 feet from its previous depth of 40 feet.
The 47-foot harbor provides the channel depth needed for larger ships to call Blount Island to and from destinations worldwide and allows existing ships calling Jacksonville to carry more cargo on board. In addition, the project includes a new turning basin allowing larger vessels to turn around at Blount Island berths.
"Florida's seaports are economic drivers for our state and serve as gateways to domestic and international markets," said Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Secretary Jared W. Perdue, P.E. "Through FDOT's strategic investments, our seaports continue to expand and modernize to meet the needs of Florida's growing economy and communities. The JAXPORT Harbor Deepening Project communicates to the world that Florida is open for business and demonstrates Florida's unwavering commitment to strengthen and grow supply chains while providing a safe, resilient, competitive, and dynamic multimodal transportation system."
“When JAXPORT began this deepening journey nearly two decades ago, the goal was to build the port of the future,” said JAXPORT Board Chair Wendy Hamilton. “With today’s completion of deepening through Blount Island—the future is here, and JAXPORT is equipped to meet the needs of the nation’s supply chain for generations to come.”
In coordination with deepening, JAXPORT completed more than $100 million in berth enhancements this month to enable the SSA Jacksonville Container Terminal (JCT) at Blount Island to simultaneously accommodate two post-Panamax container ships. In early 2023, terminal operator SSA Atlantic will welcome three new eco-friendly 100-gauge container cranes, bringing the JCT’s total to six.
“Anchored by harbor deepening, well over half a billion dollars in infrastructure improvements have been recently completed or are currently underway to improve our container capabilities at Blount Island,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “With the support of our federal, state, and local partners, JAXPORT is open for business and ready to serve the needs of our customers while creating local jobs here in our community.”
Deepening through Blount Island was completed three years ahead of the original project schedule. The total funding to date is $420 million funded through a public-private partnership between the federal government, State of Florida, City of Jacksonville, JAXPORT, and SSA Atlantic.
“This truly is a great public-private partnership,” Congressman John Rutherford said at the event. “The potential is amazing, but what I really love the most is while we’re here for the deepening ribbon-cutting, the Board and Eric are already talking about how we are going to make port operations even better. This is not the end of anything, this is really the beginning.”
“This project solidifies Northeast Florida as a top destination for worldwide commerce and shipping, with the ability to accommodate larger ships,” said Congresswoman Kat Cammack. “Florida, with her 14 ports around the state, continues to lead the way for maritime transportation and I’m grateful for the hard work and investment in this project, which will only create more opportunities to strengthen our supply chain and make the Sunshine State a top gateway to domestic and international destinations.”
The Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project creates or protects 15,000 jobs throughout the supply chain, including trucking, warehousing, and distribution. The initial feasibility study for the project began in 2005, and construction started in February 2018.
“As with all Corps projects, this mammoth civil works effort was undertaken to upgrade the nation’s waterways and ports, to strengthen supply chains and promote economic growth while protecting the environment,” said USACE Jacksonville District Commander Col. James Booth. “As a result of this team effort, we expect Jacksonville harbor will grow and prosper as a preferred destination and point of departure for the largest, most cost-effective commercial fleets of the mid-21st century.”
"Jacksonville's economy and livelihood has always centered around the St. Johns River. JAXPORT has been a crucial driver of economic growth and investments in our city," said Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry. "The completion of this leg of a decades-in-the-making Harbor Deepening Project has required the collaboration and effort of public, private, and nonprofit spheres. It is no small feat and will kickstart the next phase of growth in our job market and investments from regional, national, and global actors."
In addition to the deepening, berth improvements, and new cranes, more than $70 million in terminal enhancements—funded by SSA and a grant from the US Maritime Administration (MARAD)— are also underway to expand container capacity at the SSA JCT. By spring of 2023, SSA will complete the first three of seven construction phases, producing approximately 31 acres of newly paved and improved operating area. The total project of approximately 93 acres will be complete by the end of 2024, allowing the SSA JCT to accommodate 500,000 TEUs (containers) annually.
“SSA would like to thank JAXPORT, the Army Corps of Engineers, and all our state and local officials for their commitment to this historic event,” said SSA Vice President of Florida Operations Frank McBride. “Forty-seven feet of water positions Jacksonville among the deepest ports on the East Coast, further enhancing the capabilities of the SSA JCT as an international cargo gateway.”
The Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project is a 13-mile federally authorized project. The current funding model covered the completion of the first 11 miles. The final two miles are authorized and under review.
JAXPORT is Florida’s largest container port and one of the nation’s top vehicle-handling ports. Jacksonville offers two-way ship traffic, no berth or terminal congestion, and same-day access to 98 million consumers.
Cargo activity through Jacksonville’s seaport supports 138,000 jobs in Florida and $31 billion in annual economic impact for the region and state. The port continues to make infrastructure improvements in support of JAXPORT’s mission to create jobs and economic opportunity for the citizens of Northeast Florida.

LUC has worked with a large multi-disciplinary team to deliver a sustainable infrastructure and development masterplan to guide the long term transformation of Shawfield in Glasgow’s East End. LUC also led the design and implementation of an advanced phase of public realm and landscape works that now forms a framework for new development to be realised over a 20-25year horizon.
Prior to construction the site was heavily contaminated and consisted of large areas of vacant and derelict land together with dated business and industrial premises. The site was completely cleared and underwent significant ground remediation in advance of the public realm works to ensure the site is ‘development ready’.
LUC developed a green infrastructure strategy to inform the masterplan design with an emphasis on integrated surface water drainage and pedestrian connectivity to surrounding communities, transport nodes and the River Clyde corridor.
The Clyde riverbanks have been manipulated to provide new pedestrian and cycling infrastructure and this now provides an extension to the strategically important Clyde Walkway.
An ecologically diverse mosaic of riparian woodland, grassland and wetland habitats has been created that will improve the biodiversity of the River Clyde corridor.
A new strategic pedestrian and cycling link has been created linking the new South Dalmarnock Smart Bridge with the centre of the masterplan site, improving connectivity in the area. In contrast with the more naturalistic riverside treatment this link is more formal in character with strong tree avenue planting, lighting and paving patterns.

At the completion of his mighty bridge, Joseph Strauss penned an impressive ode which he entitled “The Mighty Task Is Done”; it epitomizes his personal travail in building the bridge and makes of the structure almost a living thing. From his poem, these lines give evidence of the dedication of the man who brought the bridge from his brain and heart as well as from his drawing board:
At last the might task is done;
Resplendent in the western sun;
The Bridge looms mountain high
On its broad decks in rightful pride,
The world in swift parade shall ride
Throughout all time to be.
Launched midst a thousand hopes and fears,
Damned by a thousand hostile sneers.
Yet ne’er its course was stayed.
But ask of those who met the foe,
Who stood alone when faith was low,
Ask them the price they paid.
High overhead its lights shall gleam,
Far, far below life’s restless stream,
Unceasingly shall flow....

The Craighead County Courthouse of 1886
For years after the completion of the Courthouse, it was considered an "attractive and imposing" building. This frontal view shows the Courthouse shortly after it was built. Visible is the ornamental iron fence, clean brick, original roofing and landscaping.
By 1930, the courthouse was considered an "eyesore." Photographs from this time period show the decline in care and condition. Gone are the decorative fence and trees, the brick facade is dirty and tall grass appears unkempt.
Efforts to replace the 1886 Courthouse with a "modern" building began and in 1933-1934 the old courthouse was dismantled and its materials were sold off to help fund construction of the Courthouse. Below are some of the original shingles.
This bell, cast in Troy, New York, was originally mounted in the 1886 Craighead County Courthouse where it tolled the hours of the day. It was removed when the courthouse was dismantled in 1933, and sold to Charles E. Robinson for $10.05.
For years it was used on his large farm as a plantation bell to signal work hours and emergencies to workers.
The bell was donated to Arkansas State University Museum in 1977, by Sarah Moore Robinson and Thomas Robinson in memory of their father, Charles Edwin Robinson.
For WHom the Bell Tolls
Sometime the mechanism of the clock became disordered, and the striking gear went "haywire." At times it would not strike at all. At times it would strike as many as 25 times. There is a story about a somewhat intoxicated citizen who was weaving by the court square late one night, when the clock went on one of its striking rampages. He stopped and counted the strokes of the bell. After he counted 20, he headed for home, mumbling, "got to hurry home. It's later than it ever has been."

ACE's 95th Annual Meeting, March 2-5, 2013
Today, federal, state, and local leaders joined JAXPORT and the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Jacksonville District to celebrate the completion of the Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project through JAXPORT’s Blount Island Marine Terminal. The project deepened 11 miles of the federal shipping channel—from the sea buoy to Blount Island—to a depth of 47 feet from its previous depth of 40 feet.
The 47-foot harbor provides the channel depth needed for larger ships to call Blount Island to and from destinations worldwide and allows existing ships calling Jacksonville to carry more cargo on board. In addition, the project includes a new turning basin allowing larger vessels to turn around at Blount Island berths.
"Florida's seaports are economic drivers for our state and serve as gateways to domestic and international markets," said Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Secretary Jared W. Perdue, P.E.

In coordination with deepening, JAXPORT completed more than $100 million in berth enhancements this month to enable the SSA Jacksonville Container Terminal (JCT) at Blount Island to simultaneously accommodate two post-Panamax container ships. In early 2023, terminal operator SSA Atlantic will welcome three new eco-friendly 100-gauge container cranes, bringing the JCT’s total to six.
“Anchored by harbor deepening, well over half a billion dollars in infrastructure improvements have been recently completed or are currently underway to improve our container capabilities at Blount Island,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “With the support of our federal, state, and local partners, JAXPORT is open for business and ready to serve the needs of our customers while creating local jobs here in our community.”
Deepening through Blount Island was completed three years ahead of the original project schedule. The total funding to date is $420 million funded through a public-private partnership between the federal government, State of Florida, City of Jacksonville, JAXPORT, and SSA Atlantic.

The Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project is a 13-mile federally authorized project. The current funding model covered the completion of the first 11 miles. The final two miles are authorized and under review.
JAXPORT is Florida’s largest container port and one of the nation’s top vehicle-handling ports. Jacksonville offers two-way ship traffic, no berth or terminal congestion, and same-day access to 98 million consumers.
Cargo activity through Jacksonville’s seaport supports 138,000 jobs in Florida and $31 billion in annual economic impact for the region and state. The port continues to make infrastructure improvements in support of JAXPORT’s mission to create jobs and economic opportunity for the citizens of Northeast Florida.

Another notebook filled, This vingtage (Winter 2010 - Balsam Fir) edition is the first time I've had the cover pull from the staple. It was "in service" longer that usual also, so it wore well. It also gave me the opportunity to become a Field Notes modder. That replacement spine is a cut out of the mini 2010 calendars sent with orders. Frankenotes.
Paulette Marshall, President García, Frank Mumford, and Jennifer Ftizgerald cut the ribbon to College Park, officially dedicating the building.
A daylong celebration included a ribbon-cutting, featuring remarks by Cal State President Mildred García, marking the completion of the plaza on the north side of the College Park building at Cal State Fullerton. The plaza creates a more pedestrian-friendly environment for students and others coming to the building.
To celebrate the completion of the rennovation of Marshalls Mill (in the Holbeck Urban Village area of Leeds), and also the start of the UK Green Film Festival, the carpark at Marshalls Mill played host to a free temporary pop-up "walk-in" cinema for one night only. On display were a number of local short films, followed by the main feature, the award winning documentary "Happy" that travelled the world trying to uncover the secret to happiness.
Refreshments were courtesy of local businesses, with The Midnight Bell putting on a tasty BBQ, The Cross Keys supplying the booze (via it's Mr Frothy converted ice-cream van), coffee from Lotties Coffee, popcorn from Out Of The Woods, and a charity cake sale organised by Leeds Met.
The event was organised by Chetwoods Architects, in association with Igloo & Quamby Construction, and projection and audio courtesy of Lumen.
Really great evening, i just hope they do it again!

Over a hundred years between these ones, and in 1910, the Liver Building on the right was just nearing completion, although the Liver Birds don't have their perches in place just yet!
I found a lot of old photographs of Liverpool, partly by going through very old postcards and partly from a couple of websites of archive photos. I am always fascinated to see the way things have changed for better or for worse (or even stayed the same!) and I think Liverpool is a great city for historic architecture and remnants of a bygone era.
To compare many parts of town as seen in the period 1890-1960 with Liverpool in 2012, I thoroughly enjoyed spending a few lunch hours going to the location of the old shot and trying to replicate it as closely as I could with my new camera.
Sometimes it was pretty straightforward. Other times it was difficult to work out where something 'used to be' if the changes to the area have been wholesale!
I also sometimes struggled to get the perspective right, sometimes because you can no longer get to the right position because of new buildings, and sometimes, well, I just couldn't get it right! Maybe there's a difference in the way early 20th century equipment delivered an image, or maybe I just stood too close/far away!
Anyway, I enjoyed it as a project, and have many more to take when I next get the chance. Please feel free to view the other photos in the set, if at all interested!

Ross Bridge is an historic sandstone bridge across the Macquarie River in central Tasmania. Following its completion in July, 1836 it was officially opened on 21st October by Lt Governor, George Arthur.
Designed by architect John Lee Archer it is the third oldest bridge still in use in Australia.
The bridge was constructed by two convict stonemasons, Daniel Herbert and James Colbeck with a gang of convict labour. Daniel Herbert, is credited with the intricate carvings, on the arches, along both sides of the bridge which were not included in the original design. Who approved the art on the Ross Bridge and why remains an unsolved mystery from colonial Van Diemen’s Land’s past, along with the total official and private silence on the making of the art and its final completion and exhibition.
The present condition of the bridge is testimonial to the superb workmanship employed in its construction.The performance of this workforce, as regards both quality and efficiency, must be considered unique in the history of convict labour in Australia.
Senior Airman Rachel McGrady, of the 119th Services Flight, waits for completion of disinfectant fogging as she prepares to enter a congregate living facility for the elderly for a ‘deep cleaning’ effort with a group of North Dakota National Guard Soldiers and Airmen, Fargo, N.D., May 1, 2020. Marks from the protective mask she has been wearing remain on her cheeks. Members of the N.D. Air and Army Guard are assisting a local, contracted company to perform the deep cleaning. Elderly residents of the facility are among the highest risk for COVID-19, and the National Guard members are helping to keep them safe. McGrady said, “I always wanted to join because my grandpa was in and my brother was in. I was scared to join at first because I didn’t want to go out of my comfort zone. Eventually I just joined and it’s been great! I love helping people, and with things starting to open back up I wanted to help stop the spread (of COVID-19).” (U.S. Air National Guard photo by David H. Lipp)
Utrecht University Library – Wiel Arets Architects
Size: 36.250 m2 - Design: 1997-2001 - Completion: 2004
The library, which houses 4.2 million books, was intended, in addition to being a place where people could work in a concentrated manner, to also become the intellectual social center for the suburban university campus, where students and others can come to study and meet at all times of the day. The 40 meter tall library and the adjacent, lower parking garage, both clad in glass and concrete imprinted with the same silk-screened figurative pattern, are sited on the major road and pedestrian pathway across the campus. The simple rectangular massing of the library and the repetitive rhythm of its concrete cladding and glazing, which is subtly modulated by the projecting operable sections, stands in stark contrast to the rich, plastic spatial complexity of the interior spaces.
The books are stored in two primary volumes that seem to float up towards the ceiling. The massive, lifted book stack volumes are made of black-painted cast concrete, and the walls have a three-dimensional figural pattern cast into them which matches the two-dimensional pattern imprinted on the exterior glazing. While the black pattern on the glazing filters the natural light entering the building, the pattern embossed in the black-colored concrete walls acts to diffuse and bounce the light deeper into the interior spaces. At the center of the building, a vertical space, running from the ground to the roof, is opened between the two book stack volumes, which are interconnected by a series of stairs and sloping ramps. This central vertical space forms the experiential hinge of the building, interweaving the lines of movement, the spatial layers, and the internal views.
The walls and ceilings of the interior are black and matt, while the floors are white and shiny. The bookshelves are black, while the worktables are white. The predominant black color characterizing the interior is critical to creating the atmosphere of concentration, security, and silent communication essential to the function of the library. The black interior creates a feeling of local enclosure, allowing the inhabitants to conduct the private activity of concentrated study in a public place of collective identity. The only exceptions to this color scheme are the red rubber surfaces used in the book checkout area, the information desks, the auditorium, the bar, and the lounge, all of which are related to the itinerary of public movement through the building.
The individual workspaces are organized in a wide variety of locations and arrangements within the interior, some quite intimate and isolated, and some quite extended and exposed. The individual user can make a choice of where to work, and thus to determine both their ability to be absorbed in their work, and the amount of communication they wish to have with others in the library. Because of the remarkably rich range of sizes and shapes of the workplaces, and the complexly layered sections and the endlessly unfolding spatial intersections within the building, it is possible to recognize and communicate visually with people across the interior, and even from floor to floor, while at the same time being undisturbed by those sitting nearby.

Today, federal, state, and local leaders joined JAXPORT and the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Jacksonville District to celebrate the completion of the Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project through JAXPORT’s Blount Island Marine Terminal. The project deepened 11 miles of the federal shipping channel—from the sea buoy to Blount Island—to a depth of 47 feet from its previous depth of 40 feet.
The 47-foot harbor provides the channel depth needed for larger ships to call Blount Island to and from destinations worldwide and allows existing ships calling Jacksonville to carry more cargo on board. In addition, the project includes a new turning basin allowing larger vessels to turn around at Blount Island berths.
"Florida's seaports are economic drivers for our state and serve as gateways to domestic and international markets," said Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Secretary Jared W. Perdue, P.E. "Through FDOT's strategic investments, our seaports continue to expand and modernize to meet the needs of Florida's growing economy and communities. The JAXPORT Harbor Deepening Project communicates to the world that Florida is open for business and demonstrates Florida's unwavering commitment to strengthen and grow supply chains while providing a safe, resilient, competitive, and dynamic multimodal transportation system."
“When JAXPORT began this deepening journey nearly two decades ago, the goal was to build the port of the future,” said JAXPORT Board Chair Wendy Hamilton. “With today’s completion of deepening through Blount Island—the future is here, and JAXPORT is equipped to meet the needs of the nation’s supply chain for generations to come.”
In coordination with deepening, JAXPORT completed more than $100 million in berth enhancements this month to enable the SSA Jacksonville Container Terminal (JCT) at Blount Island to simultaneously accommodate two post-Panamax container ships. In early 2023, terminal operator SSA Atlantic will welcome three new eco-friendly 100-gauge container cranes, bringing the JCT’s total to six.
“Anchored by harbor deepening, well over half a billion dollars in infrastructure improvements have been recently completed or are currently underway to improve our container capabilities at Blount Island,” said JAXPORT CEO Eric Green. “With the support of our federal, state, and local partners, JAXPORT is open for business and ready to serve the needs of our customers while creating local jobs here in our community.”
Deepening through Blount Island was completed three years ahead of the original project schedule. The total funding to date is $420 million funded through a public-private partnership between the federal government, State of Florida, City of Jacksonville, JAXPORT, and SSA Atlantic.
“This truly is a great public-private partnership,” Congressman John Rutherford said at the event. “The potential is amazing, but what I really love the most is while we’re here for the deepening ribbon-cutting, the Board and Eric are already talking about how we are going to make port operations even better. This is not the end of anything, this is really the beginning.”
“This project solidifies Northeast Florida as a top destination for worldwide commerce and shipping, with the ability to accommodate larger ships,” said Congresswoman Kat Cammack. “Florida, with her 14 ports around the state, continues to lead the way for maritime transportation and I’m grateful for the hard work and investment in this project, which will only create more opportunities to strengthen our supply chain and make the Sunshine State a top gateway to domestic and international destinations.”
The Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project creates or protects 15,000 jobs throughout the supply chain, including trucking, warehousing, and distribution. The initial feasibility study for the project began in 2005, and construction started in February 2018.
“As with all Corps projects, this mammoth civil works effort was undertaken to upgrade the nation’s waterways and ports, to strengthen supply chains and promote economic growth while protecting the environment,” said USACE Jacksonville District Commander Col. James Booth. “As a result of this team effort, we expect Jacksonville harbor will grow and prosper as a preferred destination and point of departure for the largest, most cost-effective commercial fleets of the mid-21st century.”
"Jacksonville's economy and livelihood has always centered around the St. Johns River. JAXPORT has been a crucial driver of economic growth and investments in our city," said Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry. "The completion of this leg of a decades-in-the-making Harbor Deepening Project has required the collaboration and effort of public, private, and nonprofit spheres. It is no small feat and will kickstart the next phase of growth in our job market and investments from regional, national, and global actors."
In addition to the deepening, berth improvements, and new cranes, more than $70 million in terminal enhancements—funded by SSA and a grant from the US Maritime Administration (MARAD)— are also underway to expand container capacity at the SSA JCT. By spring of 2023, SSA will complete the first three of seven construction phases, producing approximately 31 acres of newly paved and improved operating area. The total project of approximately 93 acres will be complete by the end of 2024, allowing the SSA JCT to accommodate 500,000 TEUs (containers) annually.
“SSA would like to thank JAXPORT, the Army Corps of Engineers, and all our state and local officials for their commitment to this historic event,” said SSA Vice President of Florida Operations Frank McBride. “Forty-seven feet of water positions Jacksonville among the deepest ports on the East Coast, further enhancing the capabilities of the SSA JCT as an international cargo gateway.”
The Jacksonville Harbor Deepening Project is a 13-mile federally authorized project. The current funding model covered the completion of the first 11 miles. The final two miles are authorized and under review.
JAXPORT is Florida’s largest container port and one of the nation’s top vehicle-handling ports. Jacksonville offers two-way ship traffic, no berth or terminal congestion, and same-day access to 98 million consumers.
Cargo activity through Jacksonville’s seaport supports 138,000 jobs in Florida and $31 billion in annual economic impact for the region and state. The port continues to make infrastructure improvements in support of JAXPORT’s mission to create jobs and economic opportunity for the citizens of Northeast Florida.

Schönbrunn Palace - History
Already in the 14th century was here a plot of land with buildings. The property was then called 'Katterburg', included a mill and a public house with wine and was in possession of the Klosterneuburg (small city in Lower Austria) Monastery. Over time the property was extended and by 1548 of Mayor Bayer to a manor expanded.
In 1569 the Habsburg Maximilian II purchased the property. His goal was primarily to build a zoo, which mainly consisted of indigenous poultry and wild game. After Maximilian's death in 1576 the Katterburg went into the possession of Rudolph II. In 1605, Hungarian troops destroyed the garden of Katterburg which was then only provisionally repaired. Namesake of Schönbrunn should have been Emperor Matthias, who while hunting on the premises discovered a source in 1612 which spawned crystal clear water.
The Katterburg about 1672
This fountain was so beautiful that he should give the property the future name. Emperor Ferdinand II, the successor Matthias', spent as a passionate hunter a lot of time in Schonbrunn. When he died spent his widow Eleonora Gonzaga, who was also very attached to the Jägertum (passion for hunting) a lot of time in Schönbrunn and indulged from then on a rich social life. This soon demanded a more representative environment as it was the old Katterburg, so she in 1642 had built a castle, whose name Schöbrunn in the same year for the first time was recorded in a document. At the same time she had also the garden broadened and expanded, often offering room for business meetings.
During the second Turkish siege in 1683 the grounds and Gebäulichkeiten (old buildings) were largely destroyed, whereupon the Emperor Leopold I., who acquired the plant in 1686, for his successor Joseph I wanted to have constructed a new building of the castle. For this project, the architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach was consulted, which submitted a draft in 1688 to prove his architectural skills. Then Fischer von Erlach was hired immediately and has since worked for the court and nobility. Finally, he was commissioned in 1693 by Leopold I to design a concrete blueprint for the castle. Three years later with the construction was begone, and in the spring of 1700 the central wing was completed and habitable. As a result of the Spanish war of succession arose financial gaps, which greatly slowed the progress of construction of the side wings. And when Joseph died suddenly, they were discontinued altogether. In the coming years the unfinished palace served the Wilhelmine Amalie as a widow seat.
Emperor Charles VI. bought the chateau in 1728 with the baroque garden. However, he remained there merely for pheasant hunting. Therefore, he gave the whole castle to his daughter Maria Theresa, who has since always had a heart for the Palace Schönbrunn. This meant the beginning of the first heyday of Schönbrunn Palace. End of 1742, construction work on the castle was resumed and led to the great complex as it is found today. Maria Theresa engaged the experienced architect Nikolaus Pacassi for the management of construction. 1745 the new palais chapel was opened which still completely was based on the plans of Fischer von Erlach. In the following year, already could be moved into the residential and audience spaces in the east wing. Thus, the completion went on until an extension of the castle was needed because the imperial family experienced brisk growth. Between the main floor and the upper floors a mezzanine was inserted with living spaces for the imperial children. The baroque garden was subjected to strict symmetrical order, which was particularly manifested in the application of the flower beds and paths. The beds were in large part made of boxwood and were lined with colorful stones. The plant was like a carpet with rich ornaments.
It was Maria Theresa's desire to accommodate a castle theater in the building. It found its place in the northern courtyard wing and was opened in 1747. The Empress herself namely was a talented singer, and also her children were involved artistically at New Castle Theatre appearing themselves as singers and actors. Yet shortly after 1750, Maria Theresa had to expand the castle one more time, as the imperial family had grown again. In the west wing arose another mezzanine, now leading to the outer appearance of the castle, representing a symmetry and thus the facade could finally be completed. Here ended the first renovation phase.
The second renovation phase was less object of spatial extensions, because rather were made changes to existing premises. The big and the small gallery received a vaulted ceiling with lavish stucco of Albert Bolla and huge frescoes by Gregorio Guglielmi. The result was a masterpiece of Rococo. The neighboring rooms were of a similar standard, and nowhere with rocaille, mirrors, tapestries, paintings, and other precious decorative elements was economized. From 1753 Franz Stephan in the Hietzinger area of the castle park had laid out the so-called Dutch garden, in which arose an extensive collection of exotic plants, which should serve scientific purposes.
Another phase of equipment activities began after the death of Emperor Franz I. Stephan in 1765, Maria Theresa profoundly affecting. In order to express her grief and to commemorate her late husband, she had in the eastern wing numerous rooms equipped to Memorial rooms. In doing so, to her nothing was too expensive, and so arose richly decorated rooms with precious lacquer panels, specially acquired wood panelings from distant lands, finest fabric upholstery and many other exclusivities.
One last important phase of expansion began in the 70s of the 18th century, as Empress Maria Theresa had the gardens by the court architect Johann Ferdinand Hetzendorf of Hohenberg expanded.
Under his leadership, the Gloriette, the monumental Fountain of Neptune, the Roman artificial ruin, the Obelisk, the avenues and all the places and ways with the countless statues and sculptures, mainly originating from Wilhelm Beyer emerged. The design of the whole complex was until shortly before Maria Theresa's death in 1780 under way. From 1779 on, the park was open to the public. After that, the castle stood empty except for the years 1805 and 1809, in which Napoleon Schönbrunn occupied. After the Congress of Vienna in the years 1814/15 came up renewals, which were urgently needed. The facade was given according to plans by Johann Adam a completely new face: He removed the exuberant Rococo paneling and gave the castle its present appearance.
Another golden age began for Schönbrunn when Emperor Franz Joseph I in 1848 took over the Austrian rule. Schönbrunn was in fact already in his childhood his favorite. He inhabited as Emperor the premises of the West Wing, where he remained throughout his life. Except for the audience rooms, the rooms were refurbished in Franz Joseph's living area.
With a comparatively sober and simple setup of bourgeois character they were provided, which enables to conclude on Franz Joseph's personality. Even with the marriage and the arrival of Elisabeth of Bavaria ("Sisi" or the "Sissi") and on the occasion of the later family growth extensive device-specific changes have been made, yet much remained from the time of Maria Theresa. On the occasion of the World Exhibition in Vienna in 1873 even a large part has been restored. Extensive renovations, extensions and additions to the Maria Theresa Rococo style were made mainly to the galleries and to the premises in the east wing. The Dutch garden was transformed into an English garden and in it in the years 1880-82 was built the famous Palm House, a huge building made of glass and iron. Now, the final face of Schönbrunn was created, as it is known today throughout the world.
