jdlaing Posted December 12, 2016 Share #1782 Posted December 12, 2016 Definitely looks like a County Courthouse. Not Hawaii so only 49 more states to choose from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

adan Posted December 13, 2016 Share #1786 Posted December 13, 2016 Jd - you are da man! Your turn... (The back story is that we blew our clutch on I-70 50 miles from nowhere in the Kansas plains - Lincoln (by gawd) Kansas is where we spent 3 days getting it fixed. Explored the town. The striped limestone is local to the area). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Geschlecht Posted December 14, 2016 Share #1796 Posted December 14, 2016 Hello Wally, My Post is an observation that the mechanical device in the glass enclosure has wheels below, wings on top & what appears to be a propeller at the bottom back. My attempt at ironical levity. Best Regards, Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted December 14, 2016 Share #1797 Posted December 14, 2016 Hi Michael. Now I get it, I'm a bit slow. Actually it's an amphibian biplane. Hopefully an airplane enthusiast will find this "building" thread and solve this one. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adan Posted December 15, 2016 Share #1798 Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Airplane is The Spirit of Carnauba, a replica Sikorsky S-38, the original of which was flown by H.F. Johnson of Johnson's Wax in search of the carnauba palm in S. America, source of the world's hardest furniture wax. I'd figured out the "amphibious" part, but War's clue about "biplane" got me the rest of the way to the Sikorsky.... http://www.strangebirds.com/carnuba1.jpg The replica is housed in the building pictured, Fortaleza Hall at the Johnson's Wax compound in Racine, Wisconsin, designed by Foster + Partners (Norman Foster, Chairman). In a couple of strange coincidences, we had the interior of the original Frank Lloyd Wright Johnson's Wax building, right next door, as a subject a few months ago. And... while doing my time in Lincoln, KS, as recorded in my entry on the previous page, we visited the Lincoln County Museum, and were informed about an early filmmaker/explorer born in Lincoln. His name was also Johnson (Martin) and he and his wife Osa also flew an S-38 (nicknamed Osa's Ark) in their journeys in Africa. Their museum is in Chanute, KS. Edit - no connection between the two Johnson's that I know of - but the S-38, for obvious reasons, was known as "The explorer's air yacht." Flown by Lindbergh, and Howard Hughes as well, when planning early airline routes in remote areas. Edited December 15, 2016 by adan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted December 15, 2016 Share #1799 Posted December 15, 2016 You nailed it. Here's a shot that would have given away the location with FLW's tower in the background. You're up next.
