Center for the Visual Arts at the Toledo Museum of Art in Toledo, Ohio-CVA
The CVA is actually home to the University of Toledo's Art Department. The architecture of the building is fascinating and it is worth walking by as you explore the sculpture garden at the museum. There is a giant tire swing near the northeast side, check that out too!
Taken from the Museum's website:
The Center for the Visual Arts (CVA), a four-story building designed by world-renowned architect Frank O. Gehry and dedicated in 1993.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Toledo () is a city in and the county seat of Lucas County, Ohio, United States. Toledo is in northwest Ohio, at the western end of Lake Erie bordering the state of Michigan. The city was founded in 1833 on the west bank of the Maumee River, and originally incorporated as part of Monroe County, Michigan Territory. It was re-founded in 1837, after conclusion of the Toledo War, when it was incorporated in Ohio.
After the 1845 completion of the Miami and Erie Canal, Toledo grew quickly; it also benefited from its position on the railway line between New York City and Chicago. The first of many glass manufacturers arrived in the 1880s, eventually earning Toledo its nickname: The Glass City. It has since become a city with an art community, auto assembly businesses, education, healthcare, and local sports teams.
The population of Toledo as of the 2010 Census was 287,208, making it the 71st-largest city in the United States. It is the fourth-most-populous city in the U.S. state of Ohio, after Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. The Toledo metropolitan area had a 2010 population of 651,429, and was the sixth-largest metropolitan area in the state of Ohio, behind Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, and Akron.

Modded Traction North Tower Elevators - Renaissance North Shore Hotel in Northbrook, IL
Here's the Renaissance Chicago North Shore Hotel located in Northbrook, IL. We'll start with the North Tower, containing some brand (maybe US?) that has been modded by generics. The car on the very right is a passenger/service car, meaning that guests and/or employees may use this elevator. At certain times, that car will only be used by employees and therefore, the call buttons would only call one of the other two cars. My overall thoughts of all the elevators here will be contained in the south tower elevator video.
