  • The First Design for Fairmount Park
    The First Design for Fairmount Park AIRMOUNT PARK IN PHILADELPHIA is one of the great urban parks of America, its importance in landscape history exceeded only by FNew York’s Central Park. Its name derives from the “Faire Mount” shown on William Penn’s plan of 1682, where the Philadelphia Museum of Art now perches, and where the gridded Quaker city suddenly gives way to an undulating scenery of river and park. Measuring over 3,900 acres, it is one of the world’s largest municipal parks. Nonetheless, for all its national importance, the origin of the park, its philosophical founda- tions, and its authorship have been misunderstood in the literature.1 About the principal dates there is no dispute: in 1812–15 a municipal waterworks was built on the banks of the Schuylkill, the site of which soon became a popular resort location and a subject of picturesque paintings; in 1843 the city began to acquire tracts of land along the river to safeguard the water supply; in 1859 the city held a competition for the design of a picturesque park; finally, in 1867, the Fairmount Park Commission was established to oversee a much larger park, whose layout was eventually entrusted to the German landscape architect Hermann J. Schwarzmann. This is the version rehearsed in all modern accounts of the park. All texts agree that 1867 marks the origin of the park, in conception and execution. They depict the pre–Civil War events as abortive and inconclusive; in particular, they dismiss the 1859 competition. According to George B. Tatum, writing in 1961, a series of “plans were prepared,” I am indebted to five generous colleagues who read this manuscript and contributed suggestions: Therese O’Malley of CASVA; Sheafe Satterthwaite and E.

Our railroad has been operating under severe handicaps. Lack of sufficient funds limited the amount of maintenance we could do. Desirable improvement projects had to be shelved. There were shortages of supplies and materials. We constantly had to economize, improvise, make do. Through all this, you ably carried on with your duties, helping to provide a high level of service. Your performance deserved and received praise from our shippers. In a short time, ConRail will take over Penn Central's rail operations. You will be ConRail's greatest asset.

    4. FAIRMOUNT (EAST/WEST) PARK MASTER PLAN Fairmount Park System Natural Lands Restoration Master Plan Skyline of the City of Philadelphia as seen from George’s Hill. 4.A. T ASKS A SSOCIATED W ITH R ESTORATION A CTIVITIES 4.A.1. Introduction The project to prepare a natural lands restoration master plan for Fairmount (East/West) Park began in October 1997. Numerous site visits were conducted in Fairmount (East/West) Park with the Fairmount Park Commission (FPC) District #1 Manager and staff, community members, Natural Lands Restoration and Environmental Education Program (NLREEP) staff and Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia (ANSP) staff. Informal meetings at the Park’s district office were held to solicit information and opinions from district staff. Additionally, ANSP participated in the NLREEP Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) meetings in March and October 1998. These meetings were used to solicit ideas and develop contacts with other environmental scientists and land managers. A meeting was also held with ANSP, NLREEP and FPC engineering staff to discuss completed and planned projects in or affecting natural lands in Fairmount (East/West) Park. A variety of informal contacts, such as speaking at meetings of Friends groups and other clubs, and discussions during field visits provided additional input. ANSP, NLREEP and the Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) set up a program of quarterly meetings to discuss various issues of joint interest. These meetings are valuable in obtaining information useful in planning restoration and in developing concepts for cooperative programs. As a result of these meetings, PWD staff reviewed the list of priority stream restoration sites proposed for Fairmount (East/West) Park.

  • Raleigh Coin Club Newsletter October 1997
    Raleigh Coin Club Newsletter October 1997 A Modern Commemorative Story by Dave Provost Quick. List all of the modern commemoratives that were issued by the U.S. Mint in 1993. Go ahead. Think. I’ll wait. [Insert theme music from Jeopardy! here.] If you’re good, or had a Red Book handy, you probably came up with a six coin list (twelve if you separate proofs from uncirculated issues): the silver half dollar, silver dollar, and gold half eagle pieces honoring James Madison, and the clad half dollar, silver dollar, and gold half eagle commemorating the 50th anniversary of World War II. If you’re not so good, who knows how many you came up with! (Only kidding!) Either way, I’m willing to bet that you didn’t list the Ben Franklin Firefighters Silver Medal among your 1993 commemoratives. In many ways, this attractive medal parallels the modern commemorative coin issues that have been produced by the Mint since 1982, and is a worthy addition to any such collection. The piece was approved by Congress in 1992 with an authorized mintage of no more than 1.5 million pieces. All of the medals were struck at the Philadelphia Mint, and were produced in both proof and uncirculated conditions. The medals were sold by the Mint during 1993 and 1994; the proof medal sold for $36.00 ($33.00 pre-issue) and the uncirculated piece sold for $32.00 ($29.00 pre-issue). The medal is larger than a silver dollar at 1.6 inches in diameter, and contains one full ounce of silver; a standard U.S.
