The owner of Mentmore Towers, the English mansion that doubled as Wayne Manor in the Batman films, is publicly challenging Buckinghamshire Council's demand for urgent repairs, calling the council's own enforcement actions counterproductive to preserving the historic estate. Simon Halabi, the 68-year-old Syrian-British property tycoon who bought the Grade I-listed mansion in 1999, pushed back through a spokesman after the council served a listed-building repairs notice ordering bat surveys and masonry work. The spokesman called the suggestion that nothing was being done at the property "false," insisting that ecological investigations and preparatory work were already underway. The dispute centers on one of England's most recognizable…Open

The building itself, with its curved white walls, looks like something pulled from a science-fiction set. Two cinematic theaters sit inside. More than 200 trees surround the grounds outside. The Sun reported the project carries a price tag of roughly £740 million, north of $900 million at current exchange rates. For a filmmaker who built an empire on…Open

Officials shut off all exterior lights on the 630-foot Gateway Arch in St. Louis this week to keep night-migrating birds from fatal collisions, a move that will leave the iconic monument in darkness until October 1.

Officials shut off all exterior lights on the 630-foot Gateway Arch in St. Louis this week to keep night-migrating birds from fatal collisions, a move that will leave the iconic monument in darkness until October 1. The lights-out order covers every exterior fixture on the stainless-steel landmark, removing a glow that federal wildlife authorities say can lure birds from miles away and send them circling until they crash into the structure or collapse from exhaustion. Gateway Arch officials confirmed the shutdown and set October 1 as the date the lights will return, timed to the tail end of the fall migration window. The decision reflects a straightforward tradeoff: a few weeks of a darker skyline against the documented risk of mass bird…Open
