Adam Plummer, 1941 Life at Perry Hall 1924 - 1949 J. Adam Plummer William and Eva Plummer were married in June 1925 and moved into the Perry Hall Mansion. Margaret (Schneider) Plumer (Adam's grandmother) and two aunts and uncle; Clara Plumer, Louise Plumer and Joseph Plumer also lived there at that time. This living arrangement must have lasted only a few years for two aunts and grandmother had a new house built on Plumer Avenue near St. Joseph's Church a few years later. Possibly Anna Plumer Koelber and her husband were to become part of the farm operation; this did not materialize; they later established residence on a Ridge Road farm. Adam was born in the Perry Hall Mansion; not in a hospital. This occurred in the northeast room on the second floor of the higher portion of the house. First memories of this room was that its color was a light green. In childhood years was told that paint was calcimine and it did brush off on person's clothes. The door was always kept closed in later years. Adam's sister, Sybilla, was also born at Perry Hall and their sister Mary was born at their grandmother Heil's home near Fullerton. When Adam was in high school an English teacher advised that the pronouncement of the name Plumer was different from the way it was done by the family; therefore, the change in spelling [ from Plumer to Plummer ] . At the time of the birth of Adam the doctor who was in attendance inadvertently recorded with the Vital Statistics Department the spelling of the family name as Plummer rather than Plumer. This was not known for some years. Some of the decendants of Edward still use the original spelling. This was a 204 acre farm which contained a large bank barn along with other associated buildings. Approximate 100 acres were in woodland on the steep slope to the Gunpowder Falls to the north; the balance was tillable farm lands and pasture. I recall seeing a cow and three horses on the farm in the very early thirties. Wheat and other related crops provded food for the livestock and other crops for family food and income. Small grain was threshed on the farm by Ed Simms of the local area who used and old International Harvester gasoline tractor that looked like a steam engine. One would hear it coming as it moved very slowly from the adjoining Dreyer Farm on Perry Hall Road. Potatoes, turnips and carrots were the primary crops grown in the 1930's using local seasonal help to harvest those crops. Turnips and carrots were harvested in late fall, buried in earthen kilns and in very late winter were removed, washed and then sent to market. At some point in time it was said that the carrots were fed to race horses. I recall a large spreading oak tree which was located about 150 feet northwest of the house. Its spread must have been close to 75 feet. As a child I was not permitted under this tree for it was hollow and it was feared the long outstretched limbs would come crashing down. This tree must have been removed in the late 1930's for I recall men working in the area and a large fire burning in the still standing old trunk of the tree. In the mind of a child, this fire burned for a long time. Near the southeast corner of the house was a very large spreading beech tree. As a child I recall the roots surrounding the tree and suckers growing from them making it very difficult to get close to the trunk of the tree. Just south of the house (100 ft or so) grew two very tall spruce trees; the family always called them pine trees. The area surrounding the house, considered the lawn, was not kept cut in those early years. This was possibly the reason one would find an occasional copperhead snake in the basement of the house. The surrounding farm was well populated with various kinds of snakes which were encountered often. Also regular visits from fox, ground hog, and skunk were frequent. I recall the walls of Perry Hall mansion were on the same points as that of the compass; i.e. the north wall faced north, etc. Perry Hall Mansion had fifteen rooms as large as 20 x 20 feet with 12 foot ceilings in the lower part of the house and 14 foot ceilings in the taller part of the house with a fireplace in each room. There is a large open staircase that begins on the main floor next to the main hall and proceeds to the third floor. The main hall measured 20" x 40" and had two entrances to the porch. The porch began on the south side of the house and continued on the east and then to the north sides. In addition, to these entrances there were two sets of French doors on the east wall of the house [ here, on the first floor ]. The main hall was not used in the years the Plummer family lived there. In the early years old wall paper was coming off the walls; one would see the strips of the paper hanging from the walls and ceilings. Of course there was no paint under that paper; some sight! A number of the rooms were like this in the earliest years of my childhood. There was no central heat in the house, just a wood stove f Claremont Road Residents Assoc. THE CLAREMONT FEW 'The struggle of people against power, is the struggle of memory against forgetting.' MILAN KUNDERA December 1994 On the rooftops of Claremont Road, 300 protesters waited for the start of what was to become the most extraordinary eviction in British history. Nearby, two diggers stood poised to demolish the last remaining houses in the path of the M11 Link Road. By 1:30 pm a convoy of 120 vehicles containing 700 police and 400 private security guards had arrived in the area. By 2 pm Operation Garden Party had begun. For 7 months the campaign had held the street in open defiance. We lit fires on the tarmac, built stages and cafes, and put a smile onto the face of a condemned community. We launched actions on the roofs of Westminster and the High Court, and unfurled a symbolic motorway titled: "RETURN TO SENDER" from the Minister for Transport, John MacGregor's roof. Throughout this time, behind the sculptures and painted brickwork of Claremont Road, we prepared to repel the Eco-war machines of the Department of Transport (D.O.T.). When the "Big One" arrived in late November it was like throwing a party with a thousand gate-crashers all dressed in black. Whistles and cheers signaled the first sightings. Techno from a 100 foot scaffold tower (Codenamed: DOLLY, after Claremont's oldest resident) accompanied the steady flow of riot police encircling the street. No briefing could have prepared them for such a bewildering spectacle of cultural defiance. "Welcome to Claremont Road - The State of the Art", came a shout. "What you are about to experience will affect your head-space forever." As the road was cleared a pensioner was pushed to the ground and hauled away in tears. A disabled man, his fingers prised from the wheels of his chair, was dragged outside the cordon. Campaigners lock-on to holes in the road were kicked and punched. By dusk, huge floodlights towered above the rooftops. This was to be a 24 hour gig. Acts of individual bravery and reckless pursuit charged the atmosphere. Brandishing a chain, a lone protester challenged a digger from an airiel walkway. A young woman slipped through the netting that spanned the road and fell 25 feet. Inside Number 42 a group of local residents, including three pensioners and a nursery school teacher, ate peanut butter sandwiches by candlelight. Overhead, we prepared to seal ourselves into a heavily fortified loft. We took advantage of the temporary lull to communicate with other sections of the street via an internal phone. During the night film had been smuggled out along a secret tunnel in the back gardens (Codenamed: VICKY, after the Viet Cong), and one of four underground bunkers had been discovered. Dawn on Day Two. They attempted to take the first floor. After 4 hours they gave up on the windows, the door and the stairs, and came in through an adjoining wall. They were greeted by a former Squadron Leader waving a plackard proclaiming: "DIGNITY IN THE FACE OF OPPRESSION". Towards nightfall they started on us. As the roof began to buckle under a succession of thunderous blows, we prepared to lock- on. Moments later they came in. Then, amazingly, having inspected our D-locks and posed for photographs, they retired for the night. TIP: Never throw your D-lock keys away. You never know when the bailiffs are going to unexpectantly sign-off and leave you shackled to an iron railing all night. Luckily, my keys were found precariously balanced on the edge of a large crack and snatched to safety. Outside we were confronted with an urban nightmare. Under the glare of arc lamps, cold and hungry people clung to smashed roofs. Dog handlers patrolled the perimeter fence. Riot police clustered around the slashed remains of Claremont's rare lime trees. The road had been stripped of the front-line art that had attracted thousands of visitors throughout the summer. On a flat section of roof, Keith had left his concrete lock-on barrel to build a fire and rustle up some baked beans on toast. With a pair of striped boxer shorts on his head he proudly announced that the Flat Roof Cafe was open for business. At 4 am they began to cut the last of the nets. In a highly dangerous manoeuvrer, sheilded from cameras by the glare of powerful torches, they rose beneath one man in a cherry picker (airiel platform) and slashed the net, before dragging him away like an entangled insect. When the bailiffs returned at dawn we had resealed the loft and reapplied our D-locks. While we waited to be cut out I asked one security guard what he thought of the eviction. "It's the best work I've had for a long time," he replied. "All the lads want you to keep it up for as long as possible." The campaign had become the largest source of temporary employment in the area. From the roof I could see the riot cops storm the wooden tower on Old Mick's house. It seemed fitting that the first house Similar posts: funky floors garage floor coating systems tivoli tile vinyl floor tiles heated floor installation pouring concrete floors underfloor heating on floorboards refinish wood floors in the bay area |

Waiting Model. Mezzotint . Nellie Vin. Waiting Model. Mezzotint. Costume year 1880 Mezzotint: A method of copperplate engraving in which the entire surface of the plate is slightly roughened, after which the drawing is traced, and then the portions intended to show high lights and middle lights are scraped or burnished while the shadows are strengtened. Also, an impression from a plate so produced, characterized by an even graduation of tones, resembling those of a photograph (also called mezzotint engraving). Another definition: method of engraving a metal plate by systematically and evenly pricking its entire surface with innumerable small holes that will hold ink and, when printed, produce large areas of tone. The term mezzotint (from Italian mezza tinta, "halftone") derives from the capability of the process to produce soft, subtle gradations of tone. Used alone, however, mezzotint designs are often indistinct and, consequently, engraved or etched lines are introduced to give the design greater definition.

Amber Nectar Another 10˘ pinwheel that I picked up at the thrift store. It was cheap glass and full of scratches. Lots of work cleaning up this shot in PP. Here's a tip: If you are going to do darkfield or brightfield, try to get good glass with lead in it. If it uses iron instead you will get lots of green in the refractions that can be distracting and annoying. It took me a while to figure this out. About this shot: I wanted to use ice and booze but I didn't have any so I opted to make nectar instead. I used water with a few grains of instant coffee stirred into it to fake the nectar. The coffee makes a nice sediment that makes the fake nectar believable. I used a brown blank instead of black for the background so I could bring out the brown later in the PP. The shooting floor is flat. I poured a bit of water on it, arranged some gold glass beads to hide some of the green in the base of the glass and shot with a telephoto to put the blank and horizon line out of focus. Always try to use complimentary colours for an added nice touch. The flat finish on the floor is why there is no stem reflected. The reflections come from the water I poured. ~~~ And from Iris, friend, artist and poet… your potions you mix up all of the time to make these pictures rather sublime a little bit of that a little touch of this add the glass and it's photographic bliss © 2009 Iris Zuares Memory Map: Kingsview Park A memory map of my current digs, here at the corner of Kipling and Dixon.

2009.07.06 Floor plan of the basement of Deseronto High School, showing the bathrooms and girls' and boys' playrooms. Part of a reproduction of a plan by the architect Thomas Hanley of Belleville for the Deseronto High School, c.1889. The Tribune of January 10, 1890, carried the following report on the opening of the school: The Opening On Tuesday, January 7th, 1890, in a practical, business-like manner, characteristic of the industrial centre, the Deseronto High School was declared open for the high functions to which it will hereafter be devoted. There were no orations by eminent eductationists, no interchange of empty compliments by civic officials, no devotional chanting of national anthems, but without waste of time, teachers, after a few prefatory remarks, commenced to assign duties to their respective classes. This event, it is unnecessary to state, marks the beginning of another important era in the history of Deseronto. By the opening of the High School the educational system of our young town may be said to be completed. Notwithstanding the rapid growth of the population, the public school board have in the past endeavoured to give suitable educational facilities and maintain the efficiency of the schools. It has been felt, however, that more was needed, and that without a high school the youth of Deseronto were in an educational point of view, placed at the disadvantage. This defect was the more severely felt, inasmuch as our population is chiefly composed of working men who generally found that it entailed too great an expense to send their children elsewhere to take a course at a high school. For these and other reasons it was finally decided to establish a high school in Deseronto, and the necessary appropriation was made by the town council, the work commenced and speedily carried forward to completion. The result is the handsome edifice opened on Tuesday and by all visitors conceded most creditable to the enterprise of the citizens of this important town. Notwithstanding the prevailing epidemic of influenza forty two pupils have been already enrolled and the prospects are bright for a large attendance in the not distant future. The school is thoroughly equipped with all the modern appliances and in this respect holds a unique position in this pert of Ontario. Mr. A. G. Knight, B. A, a distinguished graduate of Victoria College, end lately principal of the Campbellford High School, who has a provincial reputation as a successful educationist is Headmaster and takes charge of the English and Classical departments. He is assisted by Mr. I. D. Breads, late of Sydenham high school, an experienced teacher, who will take the Science and Mathematics departments. The members of the High School Board are energetic gentlemen and with such a competent staff and intelligent classes of pupils, Deseronto High School must soonassume a prominent position among the educational institutions of this great province. The Building The building is situated on a piece of land three acres in extent secured from the Mohawk of Tyendinaga Reserve for the purpose, end which faces on Brant, Thomas, and a new street recently opened up by the council. The site is most healthy and commanding and a grand view of the Bay of Quinte and surrounding country is obtained from the school windows and observatory. Visitors all express themselves delighted with the outlook which rewards an ascent to the tower. The edifice which is 60x64 ft in dimensions consists of three stories and a basement, or practically of four stories as the basement is thoroughly finished, bright and airy. The basement is built of limestone and the next two stories of brick, with a mansard roof above. The whole is surmounted by a tower 30 feet high and attaining an altitude of 72 feet above the ground, the bell on the flag staff being 100 feet above mother earth. The basement contains two large playrooms for boys and girls, or as we are describing a high school, for young ladies and gentlemen respectively. It is also furnished with the Smead, Dowd & Co. system of ventilation and closets now rapidly coming into use in the better class of school building in this province. On the first floor are two classrooms each 251,34 ft, with library 17x17 ft and the necessary lobbies and passages. On the next flat are also two class rooms each 25x34 ft with chemical laboratory 17x17 ft furnished with suitable tables, disks, etc. On the third floor is the large assembly room 50x34 ft with raised stage, dressing rooms, &c., in which will be held commencement and other exercises open to the public. The two principal flats are furnished in natural wood oiled; the basement and assembly room are painted and all the floors throughout the building are oiled. The whole building has been arranged and piped for gas. Wash basins and hat and cloak rooms are found on every floor. There are two large main entrances and the different stairways are all easy of ascent.

Summit Hotel (Doubletree Hotel) 569-573 Lexington Avenue, Midtown Manhattan Admired for its unusual shape, color, and stainless steel sign, the Summit Hotel is an important work by Morris Lapidus. Begun in 1959, it was the first hotel built in Manhattan in three decades and the architect’s first hotel in New York City. Lapidus was especially proud of this building and reproduced an image of the Summit on the cover of his autobiography, The Architecture of Joy, published in 1979. Trained at Columbia University, he enjoyed considerable success as a retail designer in the 1930s. After the Second World War, Lapidus began to design hotels, including the celebrated Fontainbleau and Eden Roc in Miami Beach. These accomplishments led to his association with the Tisch family, who commissioned the Americana Hotel in Bal Harbour, Florida, in 1956. After acquiring a controlling interest in Loew’s Theaters, they commissioned the Summit, which adapts many of the devices Lapidus perfected in Florida to a challenging, constricted site at the corner of Lexington Avenue and East 51st Street. Built in reinforced concrete, a material favored for its sculptural potential, the curving north and south elevations are clad in light green glazed brick and dark green mosaic tile manufactured in Italy. The top three stories, built as penthouse suites, are faced in green structural glass. To further distinguish the building from its neighbors, the door handles were inlaid with colorful mosaics and the base along East 51st Street is illuminated by globe-shaped lighting fixtures. On Lexington Avenue, he designed a striking illuminated sign. Consisting of seven disks hung between stainless steel pins, this unique element enhanced the hotel’s street presence, making it visible from a distance. Other distinctive features include a pair of neon signs that direct drivers to the parking garage and a stainless steel ash tray that serves cigarette smokers descending into the subway. The hotel opened in August 1961, generating considerable media attention. Some writers greeted the new hotel with disappointment or amusement, while others viewed it as a disharmonious addition to the streetscape. In subsequent years, however, the hotel attracted an increasing number of admirers and aside from alterations to the Lexington Avenue entrance, this flamboyant modern structure retains much of its original character. Morris Lapidus (1902-2000) The Summit Hotel was designed by Morris Lapidus, one of the most influential hotel designers of the 20th century. Born in Odessa, Russia, in 1902, he and his family immigrated to the United States in 1903. They lived on the Lower East Side for several years, moving to Williamsburg, and later, to the East New York section of Brooklyn. Lapidus attended Boys High School (a designated New York City Landmark) in the Bedford section, and for a brief time trained as an actor at New York University. During the mid-1920s, he attended architecture school at Columbia University, studying with Frederic C. Hirons and Wallace K. Harrison. Lapidus worked as a draftsman for several firms, including Warren & Wetmore, Bloch & Hesse, Arthur Weiser, and for fifteen years, Evan Frankel (of Ross-Frankel). In the office of Ross-Frankel, during the 1930s, or working independently, he designed or supervised the construction of more the five hundred storefronts, shop interiors, and showrooms. Lapidus formed his own office in 1943 and gradually began to design entire structures, including stores, synagogues, apartment buildings, and an estimated two hundred hotels. Early works by Lapidus in New York City include: L Motors (1948, demolished) in Washington Heights, Shaare Zion synagogue (1954) in Flatbush, and the America Fore Insurance Group Office Building (1960) in downtown Brooklyn. A retail designer at heart, he created extravagant works that challenged the minimalist trends of the 1950s. He often worked in broad strokes, juxtaposing modern and traditional forms, as well as color, texture, and light. Lapidus eschewed right angles, creating structures that had unusual floor plans and distinctive shapes. His best-known commissions are located in southern Florida, namely the crowd-pleasing Fontainbleau (1954) and Eden Roc (1955) hotels, on adjoining parcels in Miami Beach. Lapidus later observed that the plan of the Fontainbleau “resembles nothing from the past. There’s hardly a straight line in it – it just moves, one curve going one way, and another in the opposite direction. There’s no end.” Lapidus designed the Summit Hotel in association with Harle & Liebman. Leo Kornblath, who is listed as a partner in filings with the Department of Buildings, is not identified on the building plans and established his own firm during the hotel’s construction.3 During these years, Lapidus operated two offices: in Manhattan, on East 56th Street; and in Miami Beach, on Lincoln Road. Harle & Liebman are identified as interior designers, with offices in Kentile Asbestos Floor Tile - Random Tones 992 Vintage asbestos floor tile sample, dated on reverse from 1957.
