  • City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous
    City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous What’s Your City’s Claim to Fame? By Jeff Coy, ISHC Paris was the world’s most-visited city in 2010 with 15.1 million international arrivals, according to the World Tourism Organization, followed by London and New York City. What’s Paris got that your city hasn’t got? Is it the nickname the City of Love? Is it the slogan Liberty Started Here or the idea that Life is an Art with images of famous artists like Monet, Modigliani, Dali, da Vinci, Picasso, Braque and Klee? Is it the Cole Porter song, I Love Paris, sung by Frank Sinatra? Is it the movie American in Paris? Is it the fact that Paris has numerous architectural icons that sum up the city’s identity and image --- the Eiffel Tower, Arch of Triumph, Notre Dame Cathedral, Moulin Rouge and Palace of Versailles? Do cities need icons, songs, slogans and nicknames to become famous? Or do famous cities simply attract more attention from architects, artists, wordsmiths and ad agencies? Certainly, having an architectural icon, such as the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889, put Paris on the world map. But all these other things were added to make the identity and image. As a result, international tourists spent $46.3 billion in France in 2010. What’s your city’s claim to fame? Does it have an architectural icon? World’s Most Famous City Icons Beyond nicknames, slogans and songs, some cities are fortunate to have an architectural icon that is immediately recognized by almost everyone worldwide.

I claim that behind the Strip’s “reinventions” lies a process of symbolic destruction. Since resorts distinguish themselves symbolically, each new round of capital accumulation relies on the destruction of symbolic capital of existing resorts. A new resort either ups the language within a paradigm, or causes a paradigm shift, which devalues the previous resorts even further. This is why, in the context of the Strip, buildings have such a short lifespan. This dissertation is chronologically structured around the four building booms of new resort construction that occurred on the Strip. Historically, there are periodic waves of new casino resort constructions with continuous upgrades and renovation projects in between. They have been successively theorized as suburbanization, corporatization, Disneyfication, and global branding. Each building boom either conforms to a single paradigm or witnesses a paradigm shift halfway: these paradigms have been theorized as Wild West, Los Angeles Cool, Pop City, Corporate Modern, Disneyland, Sim City, and Starchitecture.

The annual meeting of the Conference brings together government officials, and representatives of business, industry, trade associations, and consumer organizations for the purpose of hearing and discussing subjects that relate to the field of weights and measures technology and administration. The programs of the National Conference on Weights and Measures and its committees explore the broad area of this economically important segment of governmental regulatory service. The Conference develops and adopts model laws and regulations, technical codes for weighing and measuring devices used in commerce, test methods, enforcement procedures, and administrative guidelines that serve as recommendations to enforcement officials in the interest of promoting uniformity of requirements and methods among State and local jurisdictions. A major objective of the National Conference on Weights and Measures is to foster understanding and cooperation among weights and measures officials and between them and all industrial, business, and consumer interests. The Conference has been cited on numerous occasions for its outstanding success. The National Bureau of Standards has a statutory responsibility for "cooperation with the States in securing uniformity of weights and measures laws and methods of inspection." In partial fulfillment of this responsibility, the Bureau is pleased to publish this document for the National Conference.

  • Some Construction and Housing Firsts in Hawaii
    Some Construction and Housing Firsts in Hawaii Robert C. Schmitt In the two centuries since Captain Cook's arrival in the Islands, vast changes have occurred in Hawaiian construction and housing. Grass huts gave way successively to wood frame dwellings, homes built of masonry, and high-rise apartment structures. Elevators, running water, sewers, and air conditioning—all of which were unknown in Kamehameha's time—were introduced. So were public housing and condominium apartments. Unfortunately, the initial appearance of many of these innovations has gone unrecorded, or has become the subject of scholarly dispute. The following pages are an effort to document some of these construction and housing "firsts" in Hawaii.1 Building permits. Building permits were first required in 1886. The law covered all construction between Kalihi Stream and Manoa or Kalia Streams, for a distance of three miles inland, and also churches, schools, hotels, and other public buildings elsewhere in the Kingdom, but it excluded buildings costing less than $1,000.2 Brick building. "As early as January 28, 1809," wrote Walter F. Judd, "Archibald Campbell reported that he saw a brick building there which served as Kamehameha's house while in residence in Lahaina. This first Lahaina palace had been built by 'foreigners,' possibly as early as 1800, and was thus the first Hawaiian palace built of permanent materials." It was probably constructed of adobe bricks.3 Fireproof building; office building. On April 1, 1854, The Polynesian reported, "A fine new Fire-Proof Store, three stories high, erecting at the corner of Kaahumanu and Queen streets, by Capt.

    10/19/12 Revolving restaurant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Revolving restaurant From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A revolving restaurant is a usually tower restaurant eating space designed to rest atop a broad circular revolving platform that operates as a large turntable. The building remains stationary and the diners are carried on the revolving floor. The revolving rate varies between one and three times per hour and enables patrons to enjoy a panoramic view without leaving their seats. Such restaurants are often located on upper stories of hotels, television towers, and skyscrapers. Contents Prima Tower (Singapore) dining area showing an example of a revolving 1 History restaurant 2 See also 3 References 4 External links History A barrel-shaped, but stationary, restaurant on Fernsehturm Stuttgart, a TV tower in Stuttgart, Germany, built in 1956, was noted as the inspiration for the idea of a revolving restaurant. A revolving restaurant on Florianturm, a TV tower in Dortmund, Germany, was brought into service in 1959. John Graham, a Seattle architect and early shopping mall pioneer, is said to be the first in the United States[1] to design a revolving restaurant, at La Ronde, atop an office building at the Ala Moana Center in Honolulu in 1961. Graham was awarded US patent 3125189 for the invention in 1964, and used the technology to build the revolving "Eye of the Needle" restaurant still in service at the top Patang Hotel, a revolving restaurant of Seattle's Space Needle, drawings of which appear in the patent that provides views of the city of application.

  • Modernism Resources
    THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK Hawaii Modernism Context Study 4.1 Specific Building Types 4.1.1 Low and Mid-Rise Commercial and Office Buildings Many of the remaining one to six story commercial and office buildings today are perhaps the most endangered building type of the post-World War II period. They stand on business zoned lands capable of supporting greater densities than the current structures provide. As a result, a large number of these structures have already disappeared from the landscape, especially in Waikiki. Most of the post-World War II, low-rise commercial or office buildings are of masonry construction, often concrete block, with the wood State Savings Plaza (1973) in Kaneohe designed by Johnson-Reese & Associates being a rare exception to this rule. All are modern in style, displaying an assortment of variations related to the movement, ranging from the vestigial rounded corners of streamline moderne to mid-century modern to formalism and expressionism. Most fall under the stylistic classification of mid-century modern, but some employing folded plate roofs or curvilinear roof forms that are expressionist in character, while others with a strong sense of symmetry and pronounced columns represent formalist ideas. Distinctive architectural features include such elements as flat roofs, thin, flat cantilevered concrete canopies or awnings, strong right angles and simple cubic forms, rounded corners, aluminum framed store fronts and entry doors, and projecting vertical elements, which often carried the name of the building. Exterior walls may be smooth concrete, painted concrete block, or clad with veneers such as lava rock, sandstone or thin slabs of Arizona sandstone.
