The Philadelphia Guide, now being carried to completion by 130 writers, editors and research workers, will appear as a compre- hensive volume of approximately 450 pages of text, 150 pages of maps and illustrations, and 50 pages of indices, bibliography, chro- nology and other informative material. It is designed to present an accurate and inclusive picture of Philadelphia, with its rich historic past and varied contemporary culture. ARCHITECTURAL BEAUTY Of Walnut Lane Bridge is detailed in this fascinating view from an unusual angle. 190108 The name, Wissahickon, lent by the creek to that section of the park through which it flows, from City Line to the Schuylkill, is of Indian origin. It is derived either from the Delaware word, "Wisauck- sickan," meaning "yellow-colored stream" or "Wisamickart," the Delaware word for "catfish creek." The latter is the likelier because of the abundance of catfish it once supplied for Philadelphia's famous catfish and waffle dinners.

  • SDW Challenge 100 Mile Walk
    RICHARD’S SOUTH DOWNS WAY CHALLENGE THE SOUTH DOWNS WAY SPANS 100 MILES FROM WINCHESTER TO EASTBOURNE. THIS SERIES OF TEN WALKS HIGHLIGHTS JUST SOME OF THE HISTORY AND NATURAL WONDERS OF THE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH DOWNS SOUTH DOWNS WAY CHALLENGE WALK 1 - WINCHESTER TO EXTON... 12.3 MILES The South Downs Way begins at the National Trust run Winchester City Mill and having crossed the River and then the M3 you leave the City behind and follow footpaths across fields and lanes to Chilcomb. A steep climb out of the village leads you up to the South Downs Way's first hill, Cheesefoot Head. To get here you will have walked 3.3 miles. Crossing the A272 carefully, Cheesefoot Head affords great views to the north across the vast natural bowl towards Telegraph Clump. The natural amphitheatre at Cheesefoot Head became a vast encampment of allied troops prior to D-Day. Thousands of American and British troops filled the steeply sloping banks to see Joe Louis, the heavyweight champion of the world - serving in the US army as a physical education teacher - at a US Army boxing tournament. General Eisenhower also used the large amphitheatre to address American troops just prior to D-Day. Nowadays it is more often used for festivals. The bridle path leads us North down the Temple Valley then east using the Allan King Way towards Gander Down. Then you carefully cross the A272 for the second and final time and head south down farm tracks to Millbarrow Down and the Milbury's pub. A further 4 miles or so along lanes and down tracks and you will have reached Exton, a beautiful village (with another great pub The Shoe Inn) in the Meon Valley and will have covered 12.3 miles - the first, and one of the longest sections of the walk completed! Next walk - Exton to Queen Elizabeth Country Park (Petersfield) ...9.6 miles.

  • Historic Indian "Paths of Pennsylvania
    Historic Indian "Paths of Pennsylvania HIS is a preliminary report. The writer is in the midst of a study of Pennsylvania's Indian trails, undertaken at the Trequest of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Com- mission and under the special direction of S. K. Stevens, State His- torian. The examination of source materials, which are far more abundant than was supposed when the project was initiated, has not yet been completed. Much remains to be done in the field and in libraries and manuscript repositories such as The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the American Philosophical Society, the Archives of the Moravian Church, and in the Land Office at Harrisburg, although in each of these places the writer has already spent much time. In research work of any magnitude, it is well at times to pause to get one's bearings—to see what has been accomplished, what still needs to be done, and what methods have proved themselves best to carry the work through to completion. To the writer himself, this report has already served its purpose. To others who may be inter- ested, it is hoped that its materials, incomplete though they are, may help to a better understanding of Indian trails and the events in Pennsylvania's history that depended upon them. It is impossible here to name the hundreds of persons in Pennsyl- vania, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina who have generously assisted me in this work. It is a great fraternity, this Brotherhood of Indian Trail Followers. To them all I say, "Thank you.

  • Wisdot Bicycle Facilities Design Handbook
    WISCONSIN BICYCLE FACILITY DESIGN HANDBOOK JANUARY 2004 Minor updates in 2006, 2009, 2015 and 2018 WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Acknowledgements This guide is a product of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, Division of Trans­ portation Investment Management’s Bureau of Planning. John Williams of Tracy-Williams Consulting prepared the guide under contract with WisDOT, with assistance from Tom Walsh, David Harkey, Glenn Grigg, and Todd Litman. Tom Huber of WisDOT managed the guide’s development. Significant contributions and review of the document were provided by the WisDOT Bicycle Committee including Mike Rewey, David Genson, Tom Dobson, Pat Fleming, Bob Pfeiffer, and Doug Dalton. Special thanks to David Liebel of the UW-Madison Department of Engineering Professional Development for preparing the section on bicycle path lighting. Beneficial comments and many photos were provided by Arthur Ross and Tom Walsh of the City of Madison. Thanks also to Rob Miller of the WisDOT Office of Public Affairs for his review. Numerous state bicycle facility design manuals and guidelines were reviewed in the prepara­ tion of this handbook and their language formed the basis of some of this guide’s recommen­ dations. Their efforts are much appreciated and this guide is intended to contribute, where possible, to future work of these and other agencies as well. Going back to the 1970s, state bicycle facility guides have built upon each other and it is common to see language and graphics from one used in another. This process of incremental improvement is crucial to the development of the field. Primary sources for this handbook include bicycle guides from the states of Arizona, California, Florida, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oregon, and Washington.
