103 colmore row is a 108-metre tall, 26-storey commercial office skyscraper located on colmore row, birmingham, england.completed in 2021, this building replaced the former natwest tower designed by john madin and completed in 1975.in 2008, a plan by then owners british land to demolish natwest tower and replace it with a taller modern equivalent was approved.this plan never progressed and in 2015 the building passed to the developer sterling property ventures, who successfully applied to have the building demolished.construction of the new tower began in june 2019 and completed in 2021.103 colmore row is the tallest office building in the united kingdom outside london to be constructed since the completion of alpha tower, also in birmingham, in 1973.designed by john madin, it is of the brutalist style, contrasting the traditional victorian architectural styles in the immediate area.although, the pre-cast concrete panels on the exterior, which were common on commercial buildings of the time, rather than in-situ concrete did make the building differ from classic brutalism.designs for the building were first publicised in 1964 and it was remarked that it had drawn inspiration from the university of pittsburgh by louis kahn.the designs showed a two-storey banking hall with a rectangular tower with horizontal ribbon windows.it also showed a service tower facing on to newhall street.this design differed significantly to the one that was approved by birmingham city council.the scheme also included a five-storey office block to the west of the site that was separated from it by an l-shaped courtyard.this office block was later reclad and increased to eight storeys in 1996-7 so that it reads as a separate building.the entire scheme was named the 'colmore centre'.the first phase of the scheme, which consisted of the construction of the banking hall, was completed in 1969.construction of the tower began in 1973 and was completed three years later at a total cost of £3.5 million.the building was constructed so that it was not solely occupied by the national westminster bank, but could also be let to tenants so that the bank could maximise the profitability of the site.however, the building proved difficult to let and was never fully occupied; the only major corporation to take office space in the tower was eversheds.the building has been vacant since 2003.there were numerous interesting features, including the original aluminium-cast banking hall doors, created and made by henry haig (1930 – 6 december 2007), who was an english abstract artist, painter and sculptor but notable predominantly for his stained glass work, which consisted of an abstract triangle design based on the natwest logo and were painted to resemble bronze.the banking hall itself had a coffered ceiling of plasterboard covered in gold leaf and travertine marble floors and skirtings.the exterior was covered in abstract plaster murals and bronze matt ceramic tiles.the lift shaft and two ventilation towers were constructed using brick.the structure was constructed of precast concrete with waffle concrete floor slabs.there were four plant floors at the top of the tower and 100 car park spaces in a basement car park that became disused upon the discovery of asbestos.the office block was accessed via a stainless steel surround doorway on newhall street, where the land began to drop, exposing the ventilation grills for the basement.the entrance here appeared to be of a later date to the rest of the building.the office block had a service core at the centre of each floor, consisting of a large service duct, lavatories, four lift shafts and staircase.

dead man's plack is a grade-ii listed 19th-century monument to æthelwald, ealdorman of east anglia, who, according to legend, was killed in 963 near the site where it stands by his rival in love, king edgar i.the name is more probably derived from a corruption of 'dudman's platt', from dudman — who is recorded as a resident in 1735 — and platt, meaning a plot of land.the monument was erected in 1825 at harewood forest, between the villages of picket twenty and longparish, hampshire, by lt. col. william iremonger.on its south side an inscription in gothic script reads: about the year of our lord dcccclxiii upon this spot beyond the time of memory called deadman’s plack, tradition reports that edgar, surnamed the peaceable, king of england, in the ardour of youth love and indignation, slew with his own hand his treacherous and ungrateful favourite, owner of this forest of harewood, in resentment of the earl’s having basely betrayed and perfidiously married his intended bride and beauteous elfrida, daughter of ordgar, earl of devonshire, afterwards wife of king edgar, and by him mother of king ethelred ii.queen elfrida, after edgar’s death, murdered his eldest son, king edward the martyr, and founded the nunnery of wor-well.an inscription on the north side of the plinth reads: 'this monument was erected by col william iremonger ad mdcccxxv'.on meeting her, æthelwald was 'smitten with her beauty' and married her himself.æthelwald then returned to the king and told him that she was 'a girl of vulgar and common place appearance, and by no means worthy' of the king's hand, while concealing his own marriage to her.discovering the deception through court gossip, edgar swore vengeance and arranged a hunt in the harewood forest to which he invited æthelwald.during the hunt, edgar murdered æthelwald with a javelin, and subsequently took ælfthryth as his wife and queen.william's account was later repeated by david hume (1711–1776), a scottish historian, philosopher, economist, diplomat and essayist, in his 6-volume work the history of england, published between 1754–1761.thomas babington macaulay (1800–1859), in his preface to lays of ancient rome (1842), says the story has 'a most suspicious air of romance' and 'greatly resembles' some of the legends of early rome.macaulay writes: 'when we turn to william of malmesbury, we find that hume, in his eagerness to relate these pleasant fables, has overlooked one very important circumstance.william does indeed tell both the stories; but he gives us distinct notice that he does not warrant their truth, and that they rest on no better authority than that of ballads.'edward augustus freeman (1823–1892) debunks the story as a 'tissue of romance' in his 1875 historic essays and writes: 'the process by which legend gets transmuted into apparent history could not have been better described than it is by lord macaulay.'freeman also refers to another contemporary chronicler, geoffrey gaimar, whose l'estoire des engleis ('history of the english people'; 1136–1140) describes æthelwald's death at the hands of unidentified armed men in wherwell forest (harewood forest).elizabeth norton, a historian specialising in the queens of england, concludes that 'the evidence certainly does not suggest that [æthelwald] was murdered' and that the story related by william of malmesbury is 'a later elaboration' of the reason behind ælfthryth's foundation of nearby wherwell abbey, 'which was popularly considered to have been carried out as an act of atonement.'dudman is recorded as a resident in 1735 and 'platt' referred to a 'plot of land'.spaul explains: 'the legend of edgar and ælfthryth as fabricated by romantic poets in the 12th century and related by william of malmesbury, gave an excuse for colonel iremonger, a 19th-century antiquarian, to erect a monument in his part of harewood forest.

monocacy national battlefield is a unit of the national park service, the site of the battle of monocacy in the american civil war fought on july 9, 1864.the battlefield straddles the monocacy river southeast of the city of frederick, maryland.the battle, labeled 'the battle that saved washington,' was one of the last the confederates would carry out in union territory.the two opposing leaders were general jubal early, fighting for the south, and general lew wallace, fighting for the north.it is located on present-day maryland route 355 (urbana pike) a few miles southeast of the city of frederick.nearby interstate 70 leads westward to antietam national battlefield and u.s. route 15 leads northward to the gettysburg battlefield.to the south on u.s. 15 is the battlefield of balls bluff.monocacy national battlefield is 50 miles (80 km) west of baltimore and 44 miles (71 km) northwest of washington d.c. == history == much of the monocacy battlefield remained in private hands for over 100 years after the civil war.in 1928, glenn worthington, the owner of a large portion of the northern segment of the battlefield, petitioned congress to create a national military park at monocacy.though the bill passed in 1934, the battlefield languished for nearly 50 years before congress appropriated funds for land acquisition.once funds were secured, 1,587 acres (6 km2) of the battlefield were acquired in the late 1970s and turned over to the national park service for maintenance and interpretation.the historic thomas farm, scene of some of the most intense fighting, was acquired by the national park service in 2001.preservationists lost fights in the 1960s and 1980s when interstate 270 was constructed and later widened, bisecting a portion of the battlefield.in the decades following the battle, a few veterans organizations placed commemorative markers to specific units on the battlefield, including the 14th new jersey (dedicated in 1907), 87th pennsylvania infantry, and vermont markers.in the years that have followed, other monuments have been added, including the confederate monument and maryland centennial monument near the best farm (the site where union soldiers discovered robert e. lee's lost special order 191 during the 1862 maryland campaign).the national park service has since added wayside interpretive markers throughout the park.the visitor center has been relocated from the historic gambrill mill to a new facility on the west side of the monocacy river.it offers an electric map orientation program, an interactive computer program, interpretive displays, and artifacts of the battle.the visitor center is the starting point for a self-guided four-mile (6 km) auto tour and 1⁄2 mile (800 m) loop walking trail.national park service rangers and volunteers host battle walks, special programs, an auto tour and special events throughout the summer season.the interpretive worthington farm trail, a pair of loops (one nearly two miles (3.2 km) long, the other 1.6 miles (2.6 km)) on the northern portion of the battlefield, allows the visitor to walk parts of the battlefield and explore the native flora of the region.the national park service has recently established a general management plan to further interpret the area and acquire additional land if funding can be secured.in 2013, preservation maryland placed the monocacy national battlefield on its list of threatened historic properties.

monocacy national battlefield is a unit of the national park service, the site of the battle of monocacy in the american civil war fought on july 9, 1864.the battlefield straddles the monocacy river southeast of the city of frederick, maryland.the battle, labeled 'the battle that saved washington,' was one of the last the confederates would carry out in union territory.the two opposing leaders were general jubal early, fighting for the south, and general lew wallace, fighting for the north.it is located on present-day maryland route 355 (urbana pike) a few miles southeast of the city of frederick.nearby interstate 70 leads westward to antietam national battlefield and u.s. route 15 leads northward to the gettysburg battlefield.to the south on u.s. 15 is the battlefield of balls bluff.monocacy national battlefield is 50 miles (80 km) west of baltimore and 44 miles (71 km) northwest of washington d.c. == history == much of the monocacy battlefield remained in private hands for over 100 years after the civil war.in 1928, glenn worthington, the owner of a large portion of the northern segment of the battlefield, petitioned congress to create a national military park at monocacy.though the bill passed in 1934, the battlefield languished for nearly 50 years before congress appropriated funds for land acquisition.once funds were secured, 1,587 acres (6 km2) of the battlefield were acquired in the late 1970s and turned over to the national park service for maintenance and interpretation.the historic thomas farm, scene of some of the most intense fighting, was acquired by the national park service in 2001.preservationists lost fights in the 1960s and 1980s when interstate 270 was constructed and later widened, bisecting a portion of the battlefield.in the decades following the battle, a few veterans organizations placed commemorative markers to specific units on the battlefield, including the 14th new jersey (dedicated in 1907), 87th pennsylvania infantry, and vermont markers.in the years that have followed, other monuments have been added, including the confederate monument and maryland centennial monument near the best farm (the site where union soldiers discovered robert e. lee's lost special order 191 during the 1862 maryland campaign).the national park service has since added wayside interpretive markers throughout the park.the visitor center has been relocated from the historic gambrill mill to a new facility on the west side of the monocacy river.it offers an electric map orientation program, an interactive computer program, interpretive displays, and artifacts of the battle.the visitor center is the starting point for a self-guided four-mile (6 km) auto tour and 1⁄2 mile (800 m) loop walking trail.national park service rangers and volunteers host battle walks, special programs, an auto tour and special events throughout the summer season.the interpretive worthington farm trail, a pair of loops (one nearly two miles (3.2 km) long, the other 1.6 miles (2.6 km)) on the northern portion of the battlefield, allows the visitor to walk parts of the battlefield and explore the native flora of the region.the national park service has recently established a general management plan to further interpret the area and acquire additional land if funding can be secured.in 2013, preservation maryland placed the monocacy national battlefield on its list of threatened historic properties.

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel.

monocacy national battlefield is a unit of the national park service, the site of the battle of monocacy in the american civil war fought on july 9, 1864.the battlefield straddles the monocacy river southeast of the city of frederick, maryland.the battle, labeled 'the battle that saved washington,' was one of the last the confederates would carry out in union territory.the two opposing leaders were general jubal early, fighting for the south, and general lew wallace, fighting for the north.it is located on present-day maryland route 355 (urbana pike) a few miles southeast of the city of frederick.nearby interstate 70 leads westward to antietam national battlefield and u.s. route 15 leads northward to the gettysburg battlefield.to the south on u.s. 15 is the battlefield of balls bluff.monocacy national battlefield is 50 miles (80 km) west of baltimore and 44 miles (71 km) northwest of washington d.c. == history == much of the monocacy battlefield remained in private hands for over 100 years after the civil war.in 1928, glenn worthington, the owner of a large portion of the northern segment of the battlefield, petitioned congress to create a national military park at monocacy.though the bill passed in 1934, the battlefield languished for nearly 50 years before congress appropriated funds for land acquisition.once funds were secured, 1,587 acres (6 km2) of the battlefield were acquired in the late 1970s and turned over to the national park service for maintenance and interpretation.the historic thomas farm, scene of some of the most intense fighting, was acquired by the national park service in 2001.preservationists lost fights in the 1960s and 1980s when interstate 270 was constructed and later widened, bisecting a portion of the battlefield.in the decades following the battle, a few veterans organizations placed commemorative markers to specific units on the battlefield, including the 14th new jersey (dedicated in 1907), 87th pennsylvania infantry, and vermont markers.in the years that have followed, other monuments have been added, including the confederate monument and maryland centennial monument near the best farm (the site where union soldiers discovered robert e. lee's lost special order 191 during the 1862 maryland campaign).the national park service has since added wayside interpretive markers throughout the park.the visitor center has been relocated from the historic gambrill mill to a new facility on the west side of the monocacy river.it offers an electric map orientation program, an interactive computer program, interpretive displays, and artifacts of the battle.the visitor center is the starting point for a self-guided four-mile (6 km) auto tour and 1⁄2 mile (800 m) loop walking trail.national park service rangers and volunteers host battle walks, special programs, an auto tour and special events throughout the summer season.the interpretive worthington farm trail, a pair of loops (one nearly two miles (3.2 km) long, the other 1.6 miles (2.6 km)) on the northern portion of the battlefield, allows the visitor to walk parts of the battlefield and explore the native flora of the region.the national park service has recently established a general management plan to further interpret the area and acquire additional land if funding can be secured.in 2013, preservation maryland placed the monocacy national battlefield on its list of threatened historic properties.

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel.

108 st georges terrace or south32 tower (formerly known as the bankwest tower, the bond tower and the r&i tower) is a 50-storey office tower in perth, western australia.completed in 1988, the building measures 214 metres (702 ft) to its roof and 247 metres (810 ft) to the tip of its communications antenna.it was the tallest building in perth from its completion in 1988 until 1992 when it was overtaken in height by central park.as of 2023, it is the third-tallest building in the city.the concrete tower has a distinctive profile, with a triangular plan.the site occupied by the tower was home to the palace hotel, and organised opposition was formed to try to save that building from demolition to make way for an office tower.the site was subsequently acquired by businessman alan bond and the tower was approved and constructed in a plan that would retain much of the palace hotel.the tower then remained the headquarters of bond's companies until their collapse.the tower has also been the headquarters of bankwest (formerly known as the r&i bank), between its completion and 2012.as of 2015, it is now the headquarters of mining company south32.the then-opulent palace hotel opened on this corner in 1897 during the days of the western australian gold rush, and developed a 'colourful' history, hosting numerous celebrities of the time.the plot was purchased by the commonwealth banking corporation, which announced in 1972 that it planned to redevelop the site as high-rise offices.during the 1950s and 1960s, many of perth's older buildings had been demolished to make way for modern developments, which led to wide criticism of the perth city council for approving such redevelopments.in this atmosphere, wide public protest resulted and a lobby group of concerned citizens calling themselves 'the palace guards' worked to save the historic building.this outcry led to condemnation of the plans and heritage listing of the property by the national trust, and forced the commonwealth bank to ask the federal government to take the property off its hands.the property was subsequently purchased from the commonwealth bank by businessman alan bond in 1978 along with the adjacent terrace arcade.these plans made some effort at preservation of the palace hotel, by retaining the facade and main foyer area of the building.however, the construction of the modern office tower at the site's north-eastern corner required demolition of terrace arcade, the eastern accommodation wing and the hotel's renowned dining room.the rationale given for the works required was that extensive renovations to the palace hotel in 1915 and the 1930s had weakened its structure significantly, as well as problems controlling white ants in the structure.the development exceeded the acceptable plot ratio in the town planning scheme, however the perth city council pre-approved the plans nonetheless, on the condition that bond corporation kept the palace hotel operating as a hotel.demolition of parts of the site commenced in august 1981, and by august 1983 construction had completed on the tower's foundation and three levels of underground parking.however, there were continuing doubts about the viability of the building, slowing the pace of the development.this changed on 7 september 1984 when r&i bank chairman david fischer signed a joint venture agreement over the development with austmark international, a subsidiary of bond corporation.the bank, which was at the time wholly owned by the government of western australia, consulted then-premier brian burke in deciding whether to invest in the project.following the investment in the project by the bank, the developers successfully sought modification of the original planning approval by the perth city council to allow the use of the palace hotel as a bank, rather than remaining as a public hotel.
