21 The Pere Marquette 1225 is a historic steam locomotive that played a significant role in the development of rail transportation in the United States. Built in 1941 by the Lima Locomotive Works in Lima, Ohio, the 1225 was part of the Berkshire class of steam locomotives. It was specifically designed for heavy freight service and was one of the last steam locomotives built for the Pere Marquette Railroad. The locomotive was named after the Pere Marquette Railway, a major railroad in the Midwest during the early to mid-20th century.
Following its active service on the Pere Marquette Railway, the 1225 faced the possibility of being scrapped like many other steam locomotives during the transition to diesel-electric power. However, it was saved from destruction and gained renewed fame when it was featured in the 2004 film "The Polar Express." Today, the Pere Marquette 1225 is preserved and operational, thanks to the efforts of the Steam Railroading Institute in Owosso, Michigan. The locomotive has become a symbol of both the golden age of steam locomotives and the preservation of railroad history, attracting railroad enthusiasts and the general public alike with its iconic appearance and powerful presence.

30 Old Lake County Courthouse, Crown Point, Indiana
Actually, the very first courthouse for Lake County was a two-story log structure, funded by Solon Robinson at his own expense.
In 1878, a plan for a more imposing courthouse and public square came into fruition. Erection of the central portion of the courthouse, including the clock tower, began in 1878. Designer for the courthouse was J. C. Cochran of Chicago, Illinois. Construction materialized through Thomas and Hugh Colwell of Ottawa, Illinois. This original portion of the courthouse was dedicated in 1880 and reached a final cost $52,000.
Because of the expansion of county government, the celebrated courthouse was enlarged by adding a north and south tower. These two-story additions, begun in 1907 and dedicated in 1909, cost $160,000. Architects for the project were Beers and Beers of Chicago. Continued county growth required the addition of single story north and south wings in 1928 at a cost of $80,000.
The Courthouse depicts an age of advancement for Lake County, one of great economic expanse of the oil industry forged by John D. Rockefeller and the beginning of the steel mills by Judge Elbert Gary, making the Calumet Region one of the greatest industrial regions of the world.
The Lake County Courthouse is well-recognized as one of the finest architectural expressions in the state of Indiana. Standing as an impressive historical monument, it will surely continue to represent a steep sense of pride for Lake County and Crown Point, Indiana.
The Lake Court House Foundation, Inc., a non-profit organization, continues to maintain and renovate the building

36 Sanatoriul Băile Govora, located in the spa town of Băile Govora, Romania, has a rich history tied to the development of health tourism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The sanatorium was established as part of a broader effort to promote the therapeutic qualities of the region’s mineral waters, known for their high iodine and bromine content. Built in the early 1900s, the facility was designed to accommodate both Romanian and foreign visitors seeking treatment for respiratory and rheumatic conditions. Over time, it became one of the most significant health resorts in the country, attracting aristocrats, intellectuals, and members of the upper class. During the communist period, the sanatorium remained active and continued to serve as a key medical and rehabilitation center.
Architecturally, Sanatoriul Băile Govora reflects the influence of the Neo-Romanian style, a national architectural movement that combined traditional Romanian motifs with modern design elements. The building features ornate stone carvings, wide verandas, and steep, tiled roofs, all characteristic of the Neo-Romanian aesthetic. It also incorporates Art Nouveau influences, particularly in its decorative details and harmonious integration with the surrounding landscape. Set within a forested park, the sanatorium was designed to promote healing not just through medical treatment, but also through contact with nature and fresh air. Despite periods of neglect in recent decades, the building remains a remarkable example of early 20th-century Romanian spa architecture.
