  6. Yes, I've done it! This sculpture is situated in the USA, Illinois, Chicago in Mary Bartelme park. Five large stainless steel gateway structures twist through a field of brilliant white TX Active permeable pavers. Sun rays activate the photocatalytic reaction within concrete made with Essroc’s TX Active and destroy organic and inorganic compounds before they have a chance to adhere to its surface. The organic pollutants decompose into oxygen, water and harmless salts. While the photocatalytic properties of the pavers clean the air on a clear day, on a rainy day their permeable solution allows rainwater to flow through their surface rather than being discharged into local sewers. In the United States, Gray or White Portland Cement Type I, II, and III complying with ASTM C 150 is made with the addition of proprietary particles of titanium dioxide (TiO2) specifically engineered for use in the manufacture of concrete and concrete products.

Where is this place?

В чем разница между work и job Слово “работа”, как физический труд, или выполнение функции в русском языке ничем не отличается от “работы”, на которую надо ходить каждый день. В отличие от русского, в английском для этого применяют два разных существительных.  Труд, выполнение задач и функциональных обязанностей Work [wɜ:rk] - это слово следует применять, когда описывается выполнение какой-то конкретной задачи, трудовой функции, предполагающей определенный объем действий. Факт получения вознаграждения за работу значения не имеет. Например: He always starts his work at 9 am. Он всегда начинает работать в 9 утра. He still has a lot of work to do. У него до сих пор очень много работы, которую надо сделать. Профессия, офис, оплачиваемый функционал В контексте разговора о какой-то оплачиваемой функции, месте куда необходимо прибыть для осуществления труда или профессии используется термин job [dʒɒb]. Например: I love my job. Я люблю свою работу. My job is interesting....
