According to Tom Witzel, the owner of Hesselsons, who currently owns the building, says after the knitting mill went out of business in the 1960's it was home to Burruss Storage company. "Prior to Hesselsons's owning it, it had been a moving and storage company that went out of business in '92 so it sat vacant for a few years. Every year different towns and municipalities would place it up for auction so Tom Hesselson actually bought it," says Witzel.

The French Quarter, one of the oldest neighborhoods in New Orleans, is one of the most classic and flourishing areas in Louisiana. It is also known as Vieux Carré, which is French for "Old Square". It was established by the French in 1718 and it was a valuable site for trade because of its location along the Mississippi River. It was first in the hands of the French, then it was given to the Spanish, then the Louisiana Purchase took place, and ever since it has been in the hands of the United States. Le Vieux Carré; (the French Quarter) is a spirited tourist attraction for the city of New Orleans that is steeped in history, and has made and continues to make a tremendous cultural and financial impact on the city's economy.

The French quarter is a place of history, religion, culture, heritage, music, food (Cajun food), architecture, and also fun.

The City's growth was primarily toward the north between 1840 and 1850, but about 1850 a rapid advance took place to the south and southwest. On the north side, the land in Lowell was first offered for sale in 1849 and in 1850 the town of Bremen was organized. This was where my family began in St. Louis. The Oetting or as it was called the "Oettingen" family began one of the firsts banks in the town of Bremen and from that it has merged or changed its name into the Boatmen's, Nation's, Bank of America Family. This has been the cornerstone to my family's success in the St. Louis area.

The St. Lawrence boulevard is one of Canada's most known and talked about roads. In the collective imagination, it has long been the street that separates Montreal in half, which is quite understandable since the St. Lawrence boulevard is the backbone of the great French-speaking city , it is the matrix of Montreal. A tourist who would only have a few hours to get acquainted with the city should not go elsewhere, since the whole city seems to be born from this particular avenue .

New Orleans, Louisiana is a city known for its historic beauty. Everything in Down Town New Orleans has a long history. Whether the histories are beautiful or distasteful they tell our city’s story. In 1960 Jackson Square was declared a national historic landmark due to its growing popularity. New Orleans was built around Place d’Armes which was the original name of Jackson Square (Wegmann). Place d’Armes was changed to Jackson Square shortly after Jackson’s death in honor of him (Wegmann). A few short

Have you seen those weird music festival T-shirts that people wear and wonder what someone could possibly want to wear that for? While they’re sometimes meant to catch attention of people so they may want to look up the festival, it also serves as a reminder for many amazing memories for the two or three-day event. For a long time now music has changed people’s lives in many ways. It has brought people to fame and lifted many out of depressions. But, to those who haven’t experienced a festival, or even live music in general, you have been missing out an amazing social experience like no other. From the kings of festivals like Woodstock or Coachella to the lesser known ones like Rock on the Range (Hard rock/metal based) and Day for Night (variety) there are hundreds to pick from. One of my favorites is Carolina Rebellion which takes place right in this state.

The Laches begins with Lysimachus saying, “You have seen the man fighting in armor, Nicias and Laches” (Laches, 178A) to his two friends Nicias and Laches with his third friend Melesias. He has invited these men to his home to ask them what they think about training their sons, Thucydides and Aristides, with this method so as they are “concerned about the sort of training that would make the best men of them.” (Laches, 179B). Lysimachus and Melesias are worried about how their sons are perceived in society as they have no achievements or merits of worth yet while Nicias and Laches are noted generals that are held in high esteem. Nicias is “ready to take part in it” (Laches, 180A) and so is Laches but he recommends that they bring Socrates

In 1721, Adrian de Pauger laid out the streets of NOLA with influences from Le Blond de la Tour. He along with over fifty engineers began to plot out the land. Exploring the city can be imagined as travelling through history, “navigating the dense web of references embedded in the street names”, as stated by Sublette (5). The streets of New Orleans were named after important French men of the time, the royal houses of France, and Catholic saints. For example, Rue St. Louis, Bourbon Street, and Rue Bienville. These streets continue to exist today as reminders of the French origins of the

Describing the city’s growth as a “miraculous expansion,” and that it was “growing in all available directions, and where it abutted the lake, it grew skyward sharply increasing the value of land within the loop” (Larson 44.) At the time cities all across the United states were expanding on land, however, Chicago was both expanding on land and then into the sky. This exemplifies how Chicago was superior to other cities because they were more advanced than others in development by being able to grow their buildings upwards instead of outwards. This Fair was also expected to “awaken the nation to the power of architecture to compare beauty from stone and steel” (Larson 80.) This shows how this one city was going to evolve and do something that would be the beginning of new architecture for the rest of the country to learn from. They would be the first to start the evolution in architecture and it would be for the entire world to see as well. Lastly, Larson described the city as a place “far grander than even the Paris exposition,” and it was “ vision of a dream city designed by the greatest architects” (49 Larson.) This is important in establishing the perception of place because it is clearly called out that Chicago was better than one of the most touristy places in the world, Paris. This establishes the superiority Chicago has not
