Spanish Military Hospital Of Vienna
The Spanish Military Hospital of Vienna was an early hospital in Vienna, founded in 1717 by Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor and located at what is now 9-9a Boltzmanngasse in the Alsergrund district.

On 28 December 1717 Stephan Mascaro, Mauritius Andreu, Gabriel Joly Orso and Nicolaus Sardagna took on a purchase contract for a piece of land with a building already on it which had previously been used as a hospital during a plague in 1713. That building was demolished and work on a new building began on 12 February 1718. '' ...

Buildings And Structures In Alsergrund
A building, or edifice, is an enclosed structure with a roof and walls standing more or less permanently in one place, such as a house or factory (although there's also portable buildings). Buildings come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and functions, and have been adapted throughout history for a wide number of factors, from building materials available, to weather conditions, land prices, ground conditions, specific uses, prestige, and aesthetic reasons. To better understand the term ''building'' compare the list of nonbuilding structures. Buildings serve several societal needs – primarily as shelter from weather, security, living space, privacy, to store belongings, and to comfortably live and work. A building as a shelter represents a physical division of the human habitat (a place of comfort and safety) and the ''outside'' (a place that at times may be harsh and harmful). Ever since the first cave paintings, buildings have also become objects or canvasses of much artistic ...

Epistel
''Epistel No 5'' (released September 28, 2012 by the label Inner Ear/Musikkkoperatørene - INEA 16) is a studio album by Vigleik Storaas Trio. Critical reception In its very soft language Vigleik Storaas Trio performs the five of the nine compositions by Storaas, while Kenny Wheeler, Sam Rivers and Michel Legrand is «guest composers». The veterans Mats Eilertsen and Per Oddvar Johansen, in addition to Storaas, still know how to do it, with a majority of ballads, but in between there are more refined tunes like "Epistel" and the waltz "Eidsvoll". It is not merely beautiful, the trio also impresses with its secure interaction and ability to vary the rhythm and intensity. Reviewer Kjell Moe of the Norwegian newspaper Nordlys states: ''... It's not particularly original to be compared to Bill Evans, but Storaas' abilities with his distinct and clear language in the moderate and slow pace to add an extra dimension in the form of an understated excitement... The review by Terje ...
