Built in 1918, this Tudor Revival-style building was designed by Ronald Greene and Carolina Wood Products for James Madison Chiles to replace the original Kenilworth Inn, an 1890s structure built by Joseph M. Gazzam, which burned in 1909. The building served as a hotel for less than a year before it was leased by the United States Army during World War I to serve as a Military Convalescent Hospital, which operated from 1918 until 1919. An operating room for surgeries and examination rooms were added to the building, and the building had to be thoroughly decontaminated of any remaining pathogens before it was returned to use as a hotel, with the renovations taking two years. The hotel then operated from 1923 until 1930, when the hotel closed due to the Great Depression. The hotel was subsequently purchased by Mark Griffin and William Griffin, whom reopened the hotel in 1931 as Appalachian Hall, a psychiatric hospital, which had opened elsewhere in Asheville in 1916. The building housed Appalachian Hall until 1943, when the hotel was once again requisitioned by the United States Military, becoming the United States Naval Convalescent Hospital, Kenilworth Park, which had previously occupied part of the Grove Park Inn under the name of the US Naval Rest Center, and operated until the end of World War II. After World War II, Appalachian Hall returned to the hotel from the Princess Anne Hotel and Forest Hill Inn, and remained in operation within the former hotel until 1999, being known as Charter Behavioral Health System for the last five years of its operation. Following the closure of the psychiatric treatment facilities at the building, the hotel was sold and rehabilitated for adaptive reuse as the Kenilworth Inn Historic Apartments, which opened in 2001. The building features a rough-hewn stone base, a gabled and jerkinheaded, or clipped gabled, roof, stucco-clad exterior, half-timbering, one-over-one windows, a rectilinear central tower, brick quoins, a porch with stone piers and a central porte cochere with a gabled parapet and tapered stone piers, hipped dormers, a T-shaped footprint, and a detached one-story former boiler house and laundry to the rear of the hotel. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001, and presently houses 93 apartment units.

Container ship, Thames Haven
Taken on an excursion cruise on the paddle steamer Waverley, travelling from Westminster to Gravesend to Southend, into the Medway and back again.
Waverley is named after Sir Walter Scott’s Waverley novels. She was built to replace the 1899 Waverley which was sunk by enemy action on May 29, 1940 at Dunkirk.
Waverley’s keel was laid on December 27, 1945 but due to material shortages after the war, she was not ready for launch until October 2, 1946. It wasn’t until the following year on January 20, 1947 that she was towed to Greenock for the installation of her boiler and engines. Her maiden voyage was on June 16, 1947.
Waverley was built for the route up Loch Goil and Loch Long from Craigendoran & Arrochar in West Scotland. She now visits several areas of the UK offering regular trips on the Clyde, The Western Isles, the Thames, South Coast of England and the Bristol Channel with calls at Liverpool & Llandudno.
Waverley is the World’s last seagoing paddle steamer. In 1974, at the end of her working life, she was famously gifted for £1 to the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society. Waverley Steam Navigation Co. Ltd., a charity registered in Scotland, was set up to own and operate the ship. Waverley then began a second career as one of the country’s best-loved tourist attractions. Since she has been in operational preservation, she has been awarded four stars by Visit Scotland, an engineering heritage award, and has carried over 6 million passengers from over 60 ports around the UK.
2003 saw the completion of a £7m Heritage Rebuild which returned Waverley to the original 1940s style in which she was built. This was made possible with major grants from the Heritage Lottery Fund and the Paddle Steamer Preservation Society (PSPS). Contributions also came from Glasgow City Council, Scottish Enterprise Glasgow, the European Regional Development Fund and local authorities.
In May 2019 Waverley was withdrawn from service and a capital appeal was launched to raise £2.3 million to allow her boilers to be replaced and re-commission Waverley for further service. In December 2019 it was announced that the appeal target had been reached.
Despite delays to the boiler refit due to the COVID-19 pandemic Waverley returned to service in August 2020 and operated a short season on the Firth of Clyde. After a successful season on the Clyde the following year, Waverley will be returning to other sailing areas in 2022.
2022 marked 75 years since Waverley’s maiden voyage on June 16, 1947.
Paddle steamer history
In 1812, when Henry Bell’s paddle steamer Comet became the world’s first commercial steamship to operate in coastal waters, a tradition was started which remains alive today only in the form of the world’s last seagoing paddle steamer, Waverley.
From the 1860’s onward, paddle steamers developed an important niche in the coastal passenger and excursion trade. Large fleets served the cities, towns, villages and resorts of the Firth of Clyde, the Bristol Channel, the South Coast of England, London and the Thames Estuary.
Paddle Steamers also made a significant contribution to the war effort as minesweepers in both World Wars, and indeed Waverley is named after and was built to replace the previous Waverley who performed a heroic role at Dunkirk in May 1940 before being sunk by enemy action.
With a few exceptions, the Clyde steamers were owned and operated by railway companies. These were largely commuter ferries linking all the villages with the nearest railhead for onward travel.

Plandampf (replacing timetabled trains with steam hauled trains) over a weekend in 2005, centred on the town of Landau, Germany. Normal railway tickets are purchased to ride the trains, which are shared by bewildered locals having to endure packed, unheated old carriages to make their normal journeys.
Crews worked around the clock for three days to replace 60 concrete panels and complete other pavement repairs on southbound I-5 in Kent.
The old panels were worn and cracked, so crews removed them, drilled steel bars to secure the new panels, and poured fresh concrete to restore a smoother, safer driving surface.
This work is a part of the State Route 509 Completion project, which connects SR 509 to I-5. 
The SR 509 Completion project is part of the Puget Sound Gateway program, which completes the missing links in Washington state's highway and freight network.

Over the weekend of June 8, 2024 and June 9, 2024, the MTA replaced the first section of the Park Avenue Viaduct, originally built in 1890s, marking a key milestone in this critical infrastructure project to rehabilitate the structure that carries approx. 750 Metro-North trains into and out of Grand Central Terminal.
