Chicago's Great Telescope

from The Field Museum Library

Neil Robert Getic said:
This was the biggest Refracting telescope (i.e. using lenses, not mirrors) when it was built, I think it still is, but reflecting telescopes and other devices made refractors somewhat cumbersome devices to use and maintain. It is still housed at the University of Chicago but largely redundant now. I think it was constructed by Alvin Clark & Sons.

Norway Building

Sølve N.T. Lauvås said:
This style is called "Dragon style", it was popular in Norway from about 1880 to 1905. It was based on traditional medieval wooden architecture, blended with some newer elements.
