Rescatando fotos del pasado y dándoles algo de vida (si, lo se, es un vicio que no se puede dejar ni en fin de año).
A pesar de lo triste, tormentoso, lluvioso y frío que fue aquel día y tener que ir a hacer fotos casi por obligación se pudo sacar alguna cosilla como esta que inspira más bien todo lo contrario: tranquilidad, silencio y reflexión. Aunque no fue nada de eso.
Sin firma ni nada para no ensuciarla.

The first phase of renovating our 1865 farmhouse nears completion as we have a functioning kitchen and bathroom; more photos to come of the finished work as we get settled in. But for now Mary's roses get to serve as a centerpiece; we discover a wardrobe we plan to use was built for her great-grandfather; a dragon fly finds its way into the screened porch; and, most of all, it's once again a place for family to gather, which was the point of this project from the start.
In early November, the LubutoMentoring program celebrated the completion of a 12-week cycle of group sessions at both libraries. Over the weeks, the kids – some in school, some out of school, and some from the streets – learned valuable life skills and gained the confidence to stand up and talk about their experiences. At the celebrations, they posed proudly for photos with their parents and friends, and with Nikki, the librarian. More than 100 of the youth that participated in the program received certificates and individual recognition from Kenny, the coordinator and outreach officer, while the other kids cheered them on.
On Dec. 5, 2022, the USACE Charleston District gathered with stakeholders to celebrate the completion of the Charleston Harbor Post 45 Deepening Project. With the final pull of a lever and radio call to the dredge, officials marked the end of this decade-long project. The Post 45 project deepened Charleston Harbor to a depth of 52 feet, allowing the largest container ships in the world to use the port at any time and any tide. In attendance at the ceremony was the Charleston District Leadership team, Post 45 Project Delivery Team, South Atlantic Division Commander Brigadier General Daniel Hibner, CEO of the SC Ports Authority Barbara Melvin, Congresswomen Nancy Mace, US Senator Tim Scott, US Senator Lindsey Graham, and SC Governor Henry McMaster.

Undine Fountain
The Undine Fountain in Baden spa gardens is a spectacular fountain complex, created by Viennese sculptor Josef Valentin Kassin (1856-1931). The fountain, inaugurated on July 1, 1903, is reminiscent of the completion of the municipal waterworks. Without a competitive tendering, Kassin was commissioned by the art-loving Baron von Laser. The sculptor took the tale Undine as subject for his fountain. The tragic story of the German romanticist Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué is about the water nymph Undine who falls head over heels in love with a mortal after whose initial response, however, is rejected by him and must avenge herself with a deadly kiss.
The fountain with oval basin shows the scene of the tale in which Undine has rolled away the stone from the castle well and emerges from the depth. At the feet of Undine are grouped alongside her uncle Kühleborn several underwater creatures. The impressive scenario takes place on a massive pedestal of rawly hewn sandstone blocks. Integrated in these ones are debris from the depths, caused by the bursting of the castle well. Part of the group of figures is a servant who has helped Undine to push the stone away from the opening. Mesmerized, he follows what is happening before his very eyes. Opposite, disgusted, the cellarer turns his back to the water spirits, these ones spitting on him with water.
The impressive spectacle is accompanied by a magnificent water feature. The Undine fountain is the showpiece of Baden's spa park and in its style of great artistic importance.
Undine-Brunnen
Der Undine-Brunnen im Badener Kurpark ist eine spektakuläre Brunnenanlage, geschaffen vom Wiener Bildhauer Josef Valentin Kassin (1856-1931). Der Brunnen, eingeweiht am 1. Juli 1903, erinnert an die Fertigstellung der städtischen Wasserleitung. Ohne Ausschreibung eines Wettbewerbes erhielt Kassin vom kunstliebenden Freiherrn von Laser den Auftrag. Der Bildhauer nahm das Märchen der Undine zum Motiv für seine Brunnenanlage. Die tragische Erzählung des deutschen Romantikers Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué handelt von der Wassernymphe Undine, die sich unsterblich in einen Irdischen verliebt, nach dessen anfänglicher Erwiderung jedoch von ihm verschmäht wird und sich mit einem tödlichen Kuss rächen muss.
Der Brunnen mit ovalem Wasserbecken zeigt die Szene des Märchens, in der Undine den Stein vom Burgbrunnen weggewälzt hat und der Tiefe entsteigt. Zu Undines Füssen gruppieren sich neben ihrem Onkel Kühleborn mehrere Wasserwesen. Das eindrucksvolle Szenario findet auf einem massiven Postament aus rohbehaunenen Sandsteinblöcken statt. In diese integriert sind durch das Zerbersten des Burgbrunnens entstandene Trümmerteile aus der Tiefe. Teil der Figurengruppe ist ein Knecht, der Undine geholfen hat, den Stein von der Öffnung weg zu schieben. Wie gebannt verfolgt er, was sich vor seinen Augen abspielt. Gegenüber dreht der Kellermeister angewidert den Rücken den Wassergeistern zu, die ihn mit Wasser bespeien.
Das eindrucksvolle Spektakel wird von einem prächtigen Wasserspiel begleitet. Der Undine-Brunnen ist das Prunkstück des Badener Kurparks und in seiner Machart von grosser künstlerischer Bedeutung.

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.

Frederic DeLongchamps, the noted architect, having proved himself a very capable designer with the completion of Reno’s County Courthouse, was commissioned to design new US Post Office. It was to be a massive building but restrained in execution because of Depression Era considerations. While the interior would have to meet at least minimal governmental standard requirements, exterior design would be left to the architect’s aesthetic sensitivities. With DeLongchamps’ success using the Classical Revival style for the County Courthouse and neo-Gothic elements on the Riverside Hotel freshly behind him, he chose for the Post Office what would become Nevada’s finest example of Art Deco. The Post Office, situated directly across the street from the Court House and the Riverside Hotel, opened for business in 1934. To keep cost down, the entire outside of the structure was paved in a soft green terra cotta, incised to resemble quarried stone. The interior used more expensive materials. Highly polished black marble was used on the walls and served as a superb canvas for the polished aluminum panels, door surrounds, tables, and mail boxes. The large central skylight, open from the first to the third floor roof, was eventually enclosed with additional flooring to make way for more practical office use. A shame, actually.
Following the completion of the new east end of the cathedral in 1970 this chapel at the north-east corner remained unfinished for the next few decades, a reminder of work yet to be done. It was an incongruous sight on my first visits with a plain brick temporary wall where the columns now stand, which was finally removed at the beginning of the 21st century when work recommenced on completing the cathedral. A further chapel has now been built and the appearance of this corner of the church greatly improved.
Bury St Edmunds Cathedral for most of its existence was simply the parish church of St James until the foundation of the new diocese of St Edmundsbury in 1914 when it was raised to cathedral status, one of the many new dioceses formed in the early 20th century that elevated existing parish churches to diocesan rank rather than purpose building a new cathedral. Many of these 'parish church cathedrals' sit slightly awkwardly with their new status, lacking in the scale and grandeur that befits such a title, but of all of them Bury St Edmunds has been adapted to its new role the most successfully, with in my opinion the most beautiful results.
The medieval church consisted of the present nave, built in 1503-51 under master mason John Wastell, with an earlier chancel that was entirely rebuilt in 1711 and again in 1870. Originally it would have seemed a fairly minor building at the entrance to the monastic precinct, overshadowed by the enormous abbey church that once stood immediately behind it. The absence of this magnificent church since the Dissolution and the scant remains of this vast edifice always sully my visits here with a sense of grievous loss, had history been kinder it would have served as the cathedral here instead and likely be celebrated as one of the grandest in the country.
The church never had a tower of its own since the adjacent Norman tower of the Abbey gateway served the role of a detached campanile perfectly. It is an impressive piece of Romanesque architecture and one of the best preserved 12th century towers in the country.
Upon being raised to cathedral status in 1914 the building underwent no immediate structural changes but plans were made to consider how best to transform a fairly ordinary church into a worthy cathedral. This task was appointed to architect Stephen Dykes Bower and work began in 1959 to extend the building dramatically. Between 1963-1970 the entire Victorian chancel was demolished and replaced with a much grander vision of a lofty new choir and shallow transepts, remarkably all executed in traditional Gothic style in order to harmonize with the medieval nave. It is incredible to think that this was done in the 1960s, a period in which church and cathedral buildings were otherwise constructed in the most self consciously modern forms ever seen, with delicate neo-medieval masonry in place of brick and concrete.
The new crossing of transepts and choir however remained crowned by the stump of a tower for the remainder of the century as funds were not available to finish Dykes Bower's complete vision of a lantern tower over the crossing: this was only realised at the beginning of the 21st century, aided by a legacy left in the architect's will and some subtle design changes under his successor as architect Hugh Matthews. The transformation from church to cathedral was finally completed in 2005 with most satisfactory results. A stunning fan-vault was installed within the new tower in 2010, an exquisite finishing touch.
Whilst it isn't a large building by cathedral standards its newer parts do much to give it the shape and dignity of one. This is especially apparent within, where the cruciform eastern limb draws the eye. The interior is enlivened by much colour, with the ceilings of Dykes Bower's choir and transepts adorned with rich displays of stencilling, whilst the nave ceiling (a Victorian replacement for the medieval one) was redecorated in similarly lively colours in the 1980s which helps to unify the old and new parts of the church.
Few fittings or features remain from the medieval period, most of the furnishings being Victorian or more recent, but one window in the south aisle retains a rich display of early 16th century stained glass, very much Renaissance in style. The remaining glass is nearly all Victorian, some of the windows in the new choir having been transferred from the previous chancel.
St Edmundsbury Cathedral is not filled with the monuments and fittings that make other great churches so rewarding to linger in but it is a real architectural delight and cannot fail to uplift the spirit.
