There were few villages and towns in Lancashire that were left untouched by the ‘iniury of the tymes’ when Catholicism was driven underground and her adherents were persecuted mercilessly, some condemned to death. At that time Lancaster was the seat of the assizes in North West England and in recent years the Church has recognised the heroic virtue of 14 priests and laymen from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered on account of their faith on the outskirts of the city. The prayers within this book have been collected from devotional tracts and books of that time, all of which would have been considered contraband.

  • The Cap at Union Station, Ohio (The Rialto Bridge) - B
    The Cap at Union Station, Ohio (The Rialto Bridge) - B 1 VALUE CAPTURE SUMMARY This case focused on air rights, a form of joint development. 2 BACKGROUND TO THE PROJECT The Cap at Union Station in Columbus, Ohio demonstrates how governments can partner with the private sector to create and share value in highway-related investments. The origin of the Project began in 1995 when the City of Columbus (the City) was looking for a way to reconnect sections of downtown which had been bisected by the construction of interstate 670 (I-670), an inner-belt highway, some twenty years earlier. The construction of the expressway in the late 1970s became a barrier to the development of the area north of I-670, the Short North arts and entertainment district, and community groups opposed the proposed further widening of the expressway claiming it would further damage the urban landscape. For example, with a large convention center located downtown near the Interstate, “restaurateurs south of Interstate 670 said they enjoyed a steady stream of convention traffic, while those north of the highway largely reported no related business.”1 The location of the Project is shown in Figure 1 below. Before the construction of The Cap at Union Station Project, “what separated the haves from the have-nots was a 200-foot-long, chain- link-fence-bordered walkway spanning a busy highway below. It was a pedestrian no-man's land.” 1 https://www.bizjournals.com/columbus/stories/2004/08/30/story1.html The Cap at Union Station, Ohio, EDC-5 Value Capture Case Study October 2018 Figure 1: Location of the Project Short North arts and entertainment district I-670 I-670 Downtown Columbus Source: Google Maps To heal the scar created by the expressway, the obvious solution would be to build a hard cap over the expressway.

Williams’ father was shot and killed in 1996, when Williams was 11, and the ebb and flow of grief had washed over him for 20 years. But in 2016, when his brother was killed by gun- fire, Williams reached out to a grief counselor for help coping. Now, Williams serves on the board for the organization where he once sought solace, and he’s trying to provide that same kind of support to others. But the demand is far outpac- ing the supply of counselors because of spiking crime.

    Appendix A: Assets and Freight Flow Technical Memo Appendix A- ASSETS AND FREIGHT FLOW TECHNICAL MEMO Missouri State Freight Plan | Appendix A | Page 1 Appendix A: Assets and Freight Flow Technical Memo Assets and Freight Flow This technical memorandum provides an inventory of the existing freight assets and freight flows. The inventory includes all modes of freight transportation; highway, rail, air, water, and pipeline. It also includes an inventory of intermodal facilities where the different modes interact to exchange freight and the freight generators located within Missouri. For each of the modes of transportation a discussion of freight flows and forecasts is provided. Introduction Freight movement provides many economic benefits to the State through the shipment of parts to support production done in Missouri by Missouri workers, as well as, through the shipment of finished products moved both into and out of the State. The economic vitality of the State relies on transportation of goods into, out of, within, and to a lesser extent through Missouri to support jobs and growth throughout the State. The production and transporting goods are key elements to the economic vitality of Missouri. The top ten occupations in Missouri for 2012 are shown in Table A-1. Two key occupations (Production and Transportation) are listed for 2012. Production is at number four with 188,170 employees and Transportation at number six with 176,490 employees.
