## History

In 1986, Allen Rosenshine, Keith Reinhard and John Bernbach (son of William Bernbach) co-created Omnicom in a three-way merger of BBDO Worldwide, Doyle Dane Bernbach and Needham Harper Worldwide. In 1989, Rosenshine stepped down as chairman of Omnicom to return to his role running BBDO Worldwide and Bruce Crawford (who had preceded Rosenshine as CEO of BBDO before leaving to run the Metropolitan Opera in 1985) was named chairman of Omnicom. In 1997, John Wren, the number two executive at Omnicom, became the company's chief executive officer, while Crawford remained as chairman.

In July 2013, it was announced that Publicis Groupe and Omnicom Group would merge to form Publicis Omnicom Group, but by May 2014 it was announced that the deal had fallen through and the Publicis-Omnicom merger would not happen.

By 2014, Omnicom was the second largest agency holding company and had revenue of over $15 billion. Omnicom launched Omniwomen in April 2014 with the goal of increasing the number and influence of female leaders within the organization. Omniwomen has more than 10 branches in the US, UK, Canada, France, Germany, China and the UAE.

In July 2017, Omnicom announced that Gracia Martore, former President and CEO of TEGNA Inc., had joined its Board as an independent director. Her appointment brings the total to 13 directors, 11 of which are independent. In February 2018, Ronnie S. Hawkins was appointed to the company's board as an independent director, bringing the total to 14 members, 12 of which are independent. In May 2018, Omnicom Group brought its language strategy agency, maslansky + partners, to Australia.

In November 2021, Daryl Simm was promoted to president and COO. That next month, Florian Adamski was announced as the next CEO of Omnicom Media Group, after previously working as CEO at OMD Worldwide.

In October 2023, Omnicom agreed to acquire Flywheel Digital for $835 million.

title: Green Hungarian

abstract: Green Hungarian, Butschera (Hungarian) or Putzscheere (German) is a white Hungarian wine grape. It is also found in California, but in recent years the grape has been declining in number of plantings. The grape variety is likely to have originated from the border area between Hungary and Romania, or the Carpathians. In former times, it was much cultivated in much of central and eastern Europe as a high-yielding grape for simple wines, which has resulted that it is known under a large number of synonyms in different languages. It was also used as a table grape. Today, very little of it remains in cultivation in Europe.

# Minnesota Zoo

The **Minnesota Zoo** (formerly the **Minnesota Zoological Garden**) is an AZA-accredited zoo in Apple Valley, Minnesota. The zoo is one of two state-supported zoos in the United States, with the other being the North Carolina Zoo. When it opened on May 22, 1978, it was fairly revolutionary in its exhibit design. The zoo, built in a suburbanizing rural area, had more space to house exhibits and was one of the first zoos to organize its animals by their living environment as opposed to their species.

The Minnesota Zoo is a state agency. This differs from other zoos in Minnesota and most others in the United States, which are run by municipalities or private organizations. The Minnesota Zoo charges admission and sells annual memberships. The zoo is also home to a high school, the School of Environmental Studies.

## Exhibits and attractions

Exhibits are arrayed in six themed areas, including three themed walking trails ranging from one mile (1.6 kilometers) to two miles (3.2 kilometers) in length:

* **Medtronic Minnesota Trail**, featuring animals native to Minnesota.
* **Northern Trail**, featuring animals of the north (above the 45th parallel north).
* **Tropics Trail**, an indoor walking trail featuring animals from the tropics.
* **Discovery Bay**, an activity area themed around marine wildlife.
* **Russia's Grizzly Coast**, a part-indoor, part-outdoor new multi-million exhibit featuring animals from Russia's Far East and the Kamchatka Peninsula.
* **Wells Fargo Family Farm**, themed around farm animals.

### Medtronic Minnesota Trail

The **Medtronic Minnesota Trail** features animals native to Minnesota. The trail, which had been nearly the same since it opened in 1978, was reopened in 2007 after a year-long renovation. The trail now features a "north woods" look and includes exhibits for raccoons, coyotes, and gray wolves together with long-time residents like beaver, otter, puma, and lynx. Smaller Minnesota animals, like turtles, frogs and salamanders are featured in the exhibit's "trailhead", which is styled after a lodge. The quarter-mile (400-meter) trail takes guests through more than fifteen wildlife exhibits where they experience a variety of Minnesota landscapes, ranging from views into a beaver pond, a walk alongside a northern forest glade and a bird-watching perch in the treetops. The Minnesota Zoo received the Association of Zoos and Aquarium's (AZA) 2008 Significant Achievement Award for this trail. Animals in this area include:

### Northern Trail

The 3/4 mile (1.21 kilometer) **Northern Trail** features animals found north of the 45th parallel. The Northern Trail could also be seen from the Treetop Trail which was converted from the zoo's old monorail track. Animals in this area include:

Muskoxen were featured on the Northern Trail from the zoo's opening until 2021. The zoo ended their breeding program around 2011 due to the warming climate of the state taking a toll on the health of the animals in the summer, with the last two members of the aging herd being euthanized in late April 2021.

### Tropics Trail

The **Tropics Trail** is an indoor trail that gives the impression of being in a tropical rainforest. Animals in this area include:

### Discovery Bay

**Discovery Bay** contains several aquariums with a combined 1,100,000 US gallons (4,200,000 L) of water. Guests have an opportunity to touch sharks, rays, sea stars and sea anemones in the interactive estuary and tide pool. At the entrance to the Tropics building, visitors can see the Wyland mural titled "Our Ocean Family", dedicated on September 8, 1997. Animals in this area include:

### Wells Fargo Family Farm

The **Wells Fargo Family Farm**, which opened in May 2000, allows guests to touch and interact with domestic animals. The Farm exhibit showcases goats, sheep, pigs, cows, chickens, and horses in a beautiful farm landscape. The Farm, a seasonal exhibit, is open every day beginning in April; the popular "Farm Babies" event marks the beginning each year. The Farm closes each fall for the season. The farm also gives a chance for visitors to watch the staff milk the cows.

### Russia's Grizzly Coast

**Russia's Grizzly Coast** gives visitors a chance to see animals that live around Russia's Pacific coast, including sea otters, brown bears, Amur leopards, and wild boars in environments reminiscent of their homes in the Russian Far East. The 10,116-square-meter (2.5-acre), $23 million facility was the most expensive project to date at the zoo, and opened in June, 2008.

### 3M Penguins of the African Coast

On July 9, 2011, the zoo premiered a new exhibit with African penguins.

### Other attractions

Close to the entrance is an exhibit for Japanese macaques. There is also an outdoor amphitheater that is used for bird shows during summer zoo hours. After hours, the amphitheater is used for a popular "Music in the Zoo" series. The Minnesota zoo has a conservation carousel. The ride consist 56 animals from around the world. In order to ride the conservation carousel, zoo admission is required.

## Past exhibits

### Beluga Whales

One of the first and perhaps most popular exhibits at the zoo was the beluga whale exhibit. The exhibit was home to two belugas, a male by the name of Anookalik (nicknamed "Big Mouth"), and a female by the name of Anana (nicknamed "Little Girl"). In later years, a bone infection was found within "Big Mouth's" jawbone (resulting from a collision with one of the tank fixtures) and forced immediate transfer of both whales to SeaWorld San Diego in the hopes of obtaining a more sophisticated means of veterinary treatment. In April 1987, a crowd of nearly 30,000 people filled the gates of the Minnesota Zoo to bid their final farewells to the two whales, who were transferred out of the zoo shortly thereafter. Little Girl died of heart failure on June 13, 1989, at the age of fourteen. Big Mouth, whose bone infection eventually proved to be fatal, was euthanized on July 16, 1990, at the age of seventeen.

### Dolphins

Dolphins were exhibited at the zoo since its opening in 1978 until 2012. Hawaiian monk seals now reside in the dolphin tank. Director Lee Ehmke mentioned that in the future, perhaps a slim chance will come along that will allow the return of dolphins to the Minnesota Zoo. In 1992, Rio gave birth to the zoo's first successful captive-born dolphin, a male named "Shadow" sired by Semo.

In March 2006, Rio died at 35. She came to the Minnesota Zoo from the New York Aquarium in 1980. Rio gave birth to four calves at the Minnesota Zoo. One of Rio's calves, 7 month-old Harley, died earlier in January 2006 in a freak accident. He had been learning to swim between the pools when he jumped out of the water and hit his head on the deck between the pools. Another dolphin, "Ayla", who suffered from Scoliosis or curvature of the spine, was euthanized at age 14 in December 2006. She had stopped eating and stopped responding to her medication. At that time the remaining dolphins at the zoo were "Spree," "Chinook" and "Semo." In 2007, the zoo shipped Chinook, a 24-year-old male, to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. Chinook was moved because the aquarium had seven adult females and no adult males. Chinook fathered a calf and then moved to the Brookfield Zoo in 2010.

Two females, Allie and her mother, April, were additions to the Minnesota Zoo's bottlenose dolphin family in 2008. Both arrived on January 14, 2008, from Dolphin Connection in Florida. In September 2009, three bottlenose dolphins from the Brookfield Zoo arrived at the Discovery Bay habitat while their home stadium, the Seven Seas Dolphinarium, was being renovated. The three dolphins, Tapeko, and her daughters Noelani and Allison, remained in Minnesota for roughly six months until the tank in Brookfield was completed in the spring of 2010. This eventually brought the Minnesota Zoo's dolphin population up to 7. On April 15, 2010, Tapeko, Noelani, and Allison, made the return trip back to the Brookfield Zoo. Spree too was sent to Brookfield after it was decided she would have a better chance at acclimating herself to their social structure as she was generally outcast by Semo, April and Allie.

Semo had impregnated Allie in mid 2008. However, Allie suffered a stillbirth on March 26, 2009, much to the disappointment of zoo staff. In November 2009, it was confirmed by ultrasound that Allie was pregnant yet again, by Semo this time as well. The female calf was born on July 17, 2010, and through a Facebook vote was named Tajiah in late 2010. By January 2011, the pod consisted of 47-year-old Semo, 42-year-old April, her 23-year-old daughter Allie, and Allie's 6-month-old calf Taijah.

Dolphin shows at the zoo were put on hiatus in 2011. With Semo then in his mid 40s, the zoo felt it was best for them to avoid the more high-energetic behaviors usually performed by the younger members of the group. On February 15, 2011, April died and a necropsy was pending to determine cause of death. April was around 42 years old, making her one of the older bottlenose dolphins known in human care. On February 6, 2012, Semo and Allie's 1+12-year-old calf Tajiah died suddenly of complications from a stomach ulcer.

In all, a total of 19 dolphins have been housed at the zoo over the years: Semo, Flipper, April, Rio, Vince, Mindy, Chinook, Allie, Shadow, DJ, Ayla, Mindy's 1997 stillborn, Spree, Harley, Tapeko, Noelani, Allison, Allie's 2009 stillborn, and Taijah. As of 2022, Tapeko, Chinook, Allie, Shadow, Spree, Noelani, and Allison were still alive. Semo, Flipper, April, and Rio all surpassed the average expected lifespan of a bottlenose dolphin at approximately 54 years, 38 years, 42 years, and 35 years respectively.

On May 14, 2012, the zoo announced that the dolphin exhibit would come to a permanent end come fall. The Minnesota Legislature had recently granted the zoo $4 million towards the renovation of the Discovery Bay dolphin tanks, which were in need of repairs. The zoo had originally intended to temporarily transport its two remaining bottlenose dolphins, Semo and Allie, to other zoos or parks until renovations were complete, but the decision was made to end the dolphin exhibit once Semo and Allie were shipped out. It was unclear at the time where Semo and Allie would be shipped. It was assumed that because the Minnesota Zoo was part of the Dolphin Consortium (essentially a program that ensures genetic diversity among captive bottlenose dolphins), which consists of The Seas with Nemo & Friends at Epcot, the National Aquarium in Baltimore, Indianapolis Zoo, Dolphin Connection, Texas State Aquarium, and the Brookfield Zoo; one or the other were planned to be shipped to one of these locations. Semo's transfer was dubbed a "retirement". At nearly 50 years old, he was one of the oldest surviving male dolphins in human care. On October 3, 2012, Semo and Allie were transferred out of the zoo. Semo was moved to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, California, while Allie was sent back to the Brookfield Zoo just outside Chicago. Semo died on May 1, 2018, at Discovery Kingdom. He was 54 years old and apparently died of natural causes.

In November 2022, dolphins temporarily returned to the Minnesota Zoo when Allie along with six bottlenose dolphins (two males named Lucky and Merlin, four females named Tapeko, Spree, Noelani, and Allison) arrived from the Brookfield Zoo. They were displayed in their Discovery Bay tank for several months until they returned to their Brookfield Zoo habitat in Spring of 2024.

### Monorail

The zoo's monorail opened on September 20, 1979 as the Northern Trek Monorail. However, an incident occurred on May 31, 1980, where an electrical malfunction caused the monorail train to stall, its engine to spark, and produce a lot of smoke. After the incident the monorail would close for two weeks until it reopened. On October 1, 1985, the monorail closed down. The reason for its closing was because of decline in ridership in the fall and winter months. The ride later officially reopened on May 11, 1986.

A second incident on the ride occurred in August 1992, where 10 passengers had to be removed by ladder from a smoke-filled monorail car after an electrical fire broke out in a motor. Another incident occurred in June 2000 when two monorail trains (one containing 80 people and the other containing 70 people) crashed. A fourth incident occurred in March 2011 when a monorail train stalled on the elevated track, people on the train were stuck for 2 hours until Apple Valley firefighters arrived to rescue them. The monorail system continued to operate until it closed September 2, 2013.

The former monorail track was left standing vacant until 2019, when the zoo announced it will build the Treetop Trail walkway over the existing track. Construction of the 1.25-mile (2 kilometer) elevated pedestrian loop, which is the world's longest, began at the end of April 2022 and was completed in the summer of 2023.

### IMAX Theater

The Great Clips IMAX Theatre was located on zoo grounds. At seven stories tall, it was once the largest IMAX theatre in Minnesota. It underwent a transition from analog to digital during the summer of 2014. In an email sent from the Minnesota Zoo to zoo members on January 18, 2019, it was announced that IMAX corporate will permanently close the facility on January 27, 2019. No reason was given. The zoo and IMAX had a partnership in which the zoo would show nature documentaries and IMAX would show mainstream movies.

In 1987, the zoo served as the filming location for *All About Animals*, a title in the *Little Schoolhouse* series of educational children's videos.

title: Prunus andersonii

abstract: Prunus andersonii is a species of shrub in the rose family, part of the same genus as the peach, cherry, and almond. Its common names include desert peach and desert almond. It is native to eastern California and western Nevada, where it grows in forests and scrub in desert and mountains. It was named after Charles Lewis Anderson by Asa Gray. Prunus andersonii is a shrub approaching 2 meters (80 inches) in height, its tangling branches narrowing to spiny-tipped twigs. Serrated, lance-shaped to oval leaves occur in clusters, each leaf measuring up to 3 centimeters (1+1⁄4 in) long. The shrub is deciduous. The inflorescence is a solitary flower or pair of flowers. Each flower has usually five concave pink petals each just under 1 cm (3⁄8 in) long, with many whiskerlike stamens at the center. Flowers bloom before or at the same time as the leaves appear. The fruit is a fuzzy reddish-orange drupe around 1 cm (3⁄8 in) wide. The fruits are fleshy in years with ample moisture, and dry in drought years. The seed is a heart-shaped stone. The plant reproduces sexually via germination of the seed, and vegetatively by sprouting from its rhizome. One plant may sprout and resprout from its rhizomes to form a very large clone which can spread over several acres. Many rodents collect and eat the fruits and cache the seeds. Among Native American groups, the Paiute used this plant for making tea and medicinal remedies, and the Cahuilla considered the fruit a delicacy.

title: Granville Female College

abstract: The Granville Female College was an American women's college located in Granville, Ohio. It was established as the Granville Academy in 1827, changed its name in 1867, and closed in 1898.

text:
# Granville Female College

The **Granville Female College** was an American women's college located in Granville, Ohio. It was established as the **Granville Academy** in 1827, changed its name in 1867, and closed in 1898.

## History

The college was founded in 1827 under the name Granville Academy. It was "founded and is held in trust by those who are connected by membership or doctrinal sympathy with the Presbyterian Church, and from the beginning its object has been to afford young women a generous and thorough culture founded upon Christian principles."

The academy moved to a new and more permanent location in 1838. In 1867, the name of the institution was changed from Granville Academy to Granville Female College, and the course of study was enlarged.

In 1896, the college's catalog stated that it was then "the oldest school for the education of young women in the State". The college closed two years later.

In 1923, John Sutphin Jones, a coal and railroad magnate, commissioned the construction of the Granville Inn in the Jacobethan Revival style on the former site of Granville Female College; it is now a local landmark.

## Education

In Granville Female College's Primary and Academic Departments, any woman could attend and take classes, even if she did not plan on graduating. The Primary Department focused on young children's education, teaching reading and arithmetic. The Academic Department, or the Academy, also focused on younger students. Here, pupils would learn the proper line of study and understand practical applications of knowledge. The College was the only department that required examination before admission. Here, women would learn English, Mathematics, Geography, History and Science, among other subjects. Students could join clubs, participate in vocal and instrumental music training. Students could also take classes in Penciling, Crayoning, Landscape and Portrait-Painting, and Wax-Work. The students' art pieces would be exhibited around the school.

## Abolitionists in Granville

Theodore Dwight Weld was one of the first abolitionists in Granville, and he presented his lectures at Granville Female College in 1834. At the time, his ideas were especially radical, and his words were met with opposition. He was egged as he gave his lecture, and his ideas would bring the American Colonization Society to Granville to discuss abolition.

## The Granville Riot

The Granville Riot in 1834 was the culmination of tension between abolitionists and the American Colonization Society in Granville. Female students of the college that associated with the American Colonization Society were being escorted to their boarding house by men and were met by a drunken mob made up of abolitionists. The women ran to their boarding house, but there was violent fighting between the men. While no lives were taken, many were greatly injured in this riot.

## Trials at Granville Female College

The trials that decided whether a runaway slave could be taken from Ohio, a northern state, back to the South were held at Granville Female College. Here, Judge Samuel Bancroft decided that Ohio's extradition laws were unconstitutional.

***Prunus rufa***, called **Himalayan cherry**, is a species of cherry native to Nepal and Burma. It is used as an ornamental elsewhere for its striking shiny brown bark. It has been found growing at 3,925 m (12,900 ft) above sea level in the Himalayas.

## Description

*Prunus rufa* is a small deciduous tree reaching a height of 15–20 feet (5–6 m). Its calyx tubes are 11–15 mm long and its leaf blades are 2.8–5 cm long. The smooth bark is a shiny brown, with prominent horizontal lenticels, similar to the coppery-red bark of the Tibetan cherry, *Prunus serrula* and similar to but lighter than the mahogany-brown bark of *Prunus himalaica*. Its phenotype suggests close affinity with four other Himalayan species of *Prunus*; *P. topkegolensis*, *P. harae*, *P. taplejungnica* and *P. singalilaensis*. Some sources consider *Prunus ferruginea* to be a synonym.

# Maurice O'Sullivan (boxer)

**Maurice A. O'Sullivan** (born 4 December 1952) is a British boxer. As a teenager, he won the Welsh Amateur Boxing Association title before being selected to represent Great Britain at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich. He won his first bout at the Games before suffering a defeat to eventual silver medallist, Ugandan Leo Rwabwogo.

## Career

Born in Cardiff, Wales, O'Sullivan represented Roath Youth Amateur Boxing Club. He was selected to represent Wales as a teenager and fought Johnny Owen in the 1974 Welsh Amateur Boxing Association Championship, winning a controversial judges' decision. O'Sullivan reportedly offered the trophy to Owen after the fight, although Owen refused to accept. He won the 1972 Amateur Boxing Association British flyweight title, when boxing out of the Roath Youth ABC.

O'Sullivan was chosen to represent Great Britain in the men's flyweight boxing event at the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich. At the Games, he was drawn against Rabah Kaloufi of France in the first round. O'Sullivan won the bout via a judges decision, outscoring his opponent by three points. The second round of the competition was disrupted by the withdrawal of Argentine Jose Viccario following a fight in the Olympic Village. O'Sullivan would have drawn Japanese boxer Fujio Nagai, but instead faced Leo Rwabwogo of Uganda. Rwabwogo had won a bronze medal at the previous games, the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico, having reached the semi-finals of the competition. O'Sullivan was defeated in the first round when the referee stopped the contest after 1 minutes and 20 seconds. Rwabwogo floored O'Sullivan with a right hand; O'Sullivan returned to his feet but, when Rwabwogo struck another strong punch, the referee ended the bout. Rwabwogo went on to win the silver medal.

# Minuscule 817

Codex Basiliensis A. N. III, 15, also known as **Minuscule 817** (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), Θε52 (von Soden), is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament written on paper, with a commentary. It was used by Erasmus. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 15th century.

## Description

The codex contains the complete text of the four Gospels, on 255 paper leaves (size 29 cm by 21 cm).

The text is written in one column per page, 34–46 lines per page.

It contains Prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (*tables of contents*) before each of the Gospels, and a commentary of Theophylact.

## Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland did not place it in any category.

It was not examined according to the Claremont Profile Method.

It lacks the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53–8:11).

In John 1:45 it reads Ιησουν τον υιον Ιωσηφ (*Jesus, son of Joseph*) along with manuscripts: Alexandrinus, Cyprius, Campianus, Macedoniensis, Sangallensis, Petropolitanus, Uncial 047, , , 196, 461, 1514, 1519; majority of the manuscripts read Ιησουν τον υιον του Ιωσηφ;

In John 4:51 it reads υιος (*son*) for παις (*servant*), the reading of the codex is supported by Codex Bezae, Cyprius, Petropolitanus Purpureus, Petropolitanus, Nanianus, 0141, 33, 194, 196, 743, 892, 1192, 1216, 1241.

## History

The manuscript was dated by Gregory to the 15th century. The manuscript is currently dated by the INTF to the 15th century.

The early story of the manuscript and its provenance is unknown. It was held at the Dominican monastery in Basel in the beginning of the 16th century. Since 1559 it was held at the University of Basel.

Desiderius Erasmus received this codex from the Dominican friars in Basel, and used it for the first edition of his *Novum Instrumentum omne* (1516). Robert Estienne did not use this manuscript in his Editio Regia (1550), but his edition was based on the Erasman text. As a result, some of its readings appear in the Textus Receptus.

It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (817e). Gregory saw it in 1885.

The manuscript is now housed at the Basel University Library with the shelf number A. N. III, 15.

# Palermo, Montevideo

**Palermo** is a *barrio* (neighbourhood or district) of Montevideo, Uruguay. It borders Barrio Sur to the west, Cordón to the north and Parque Rodó to the east, while to the south it borders the coastline.

Politically located in Municipality B of Montevideo, it is together with Barrio Sur the center of the Uruguayan carnival and a melting pot of different cultures since the end of the 19th century. Named after the Italian city Palermo, it is the site of the headquarters of the Latin American Integration Association (ALADI) and the Embassy of the United States.

## History

The neighborhood emerged in the second half of the 19th century with the expansion of the Barrio Sur towards the east of the Central Cemetery of Montevideo. It was an unattractive area due to the storms that hit it and the proximity to the cemetery, so low-income people settled there. The area began to be called Palermo in the 1860s due to the existence of a store owned by Sicilian immigrants, whose sign read: *Almacén de Comestibles de la Nueva Ciudad de Palermo* (Spanish for 'Grocery Store of the New City of Palermo').

In 1887, businessman Emilio Reus began to build Reus al Sur, a housing area that bears its name and which has a twin in the Villa Muñoz neighborhood, Reus al Norte. Throughout the second half of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th, a large number of immigrants from Europe settled in the neighborhood, mainly Italians and Spaniards, as well as Jews from different countries.

In addition to European immigrants, many Afro-Uruguayans who with the abolition of slavery in 1842 moved to the southern area of the city, living in collective housing known as *conventillos*. In these *conventillos,* the Afro population maintained their old traditions and rituals, such as making music with marching drums, originating to Candombe. Due to this, the neighborhood is the center of the Uruguayan Carnival festivities, since along its Isla de Flores street –which also runs through Barrio Sur– the *Desfile de Llamadas* is held annually, in which a large number of *comparsas* parade, emulating the slave marches during the colonial era.

At the beginning of the 20th century, there was a beach, but in the 1930s the Rambla Sur was built, so it was removed and its mass of water moved towards the current coastal limit. Much of the neighborhood is land reclaimed from the sea.

## Landmarks

Palermo is characterized by the existence of old buildings, as well as narrow streets and sidewalks.

In the central area of the neighborhood stands the building of the Uruguayan Work University. Built in an eclectic style, it was a disciplinary center to educate young people with behavioral problems and juvenile delinquents. The headquarters of the Latin American Integration Association and the Cannabis Museum, opened in 2016, are also located in the area.

In the southern area near the coast is the Embassy of the United States and the *Espacio Libre Alemania*, a public square around which stands the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, as well as the headquarters of the Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal (UPAEP) and the Uruguayan multinational PedidosYa. In addition, high-rise apartment buildings similar to Soviet *Khrushchevkas* were built along the coastline in the 1980s.
