The County Park Near Me Was Recently Renovated, And They Put Up This Thing. It Is Super Tall, At Least 12 Feet. I Thought At First It Was Cameras, But I Didn’t See Any Lenses. It’s In A Wide Open Field, So Maybe It’s For The Weather? I’ve Been So Curious To Figure Out What On Earth It’s For!
Purple martin 'gourd' nesting boxes.ACanadianGuy1967:You’ll notice that they are often built so they can be lowered (note to cable or rope in that photo for example, attached near the bottom of the pole.) When the birds leave in the autumn to migrate south, it’s good to lower the nesting boxes and clean them out so they’re ready for next spring. It reduces illness when they have clean nesting boxes.Two of my neighbors have purple Martin nesting boxes up on poles but theirs look like little apartment buildings. But there are gourd-style ones in our area, too.
Metal Cylinder In Wall Of 1800s House With A Little Lever And Flap
Definitely an old speaking tube. If your house is two stories tall it would have most likely came out by the front door so if a visitor came by and no one answered a knock they could pull the flap up and blow into it and it would whistle to hopefully get some ones attention. Then drop the flaps and be able to talk to each other with out having to go down stair.My parents old house (it was built in 1906) had one. They had silicone filled the hole by the front door. But it was repaired and made to work great.

What Is This Elevated Place In My House?
It's an Australian house that isn't that old. And according to OP, previous owner was Asian. It's the place where you put the fridge. The plug at the back makes sense. Asians like to hose their kitchen and bathrooms down to make it easier to clean. Water won't go under the fridge this way. I used to live in Singapore.
