Guess the Warwickshire building from clues

[1oldman2]

Here is one to go on with until Profusely answers:
Commissioned by Carl Jacobsen
Commissioned in 1909
Modeled after a ballerina
Sits by the water side
Not far from a star shaped fortress.

...processing... we must be talking about a statue or monument?

Now this is what I was referring to about the search engine aspect, not getting an exact location other than Langelinie promenade, Copenhagen Denmark.

Dang it i only read about it today.

shame someone tried blasting it from its base recently, I like it nearly as well as "girl and dolphin" by the Tower bridge.

Stand by I'm working on a "space filler" while I come up with something good.

Hey, quick break + WiFi access = time to check in! (No, I haven’t left on a month long journey to some somewhere like Northern Canada where internet is unavailable. It’s just school stuff.)

Anyway, @1oldman2, you are so incredibly close! Literally, you are 1 hour away from the answer. Think about the university research station. When I say “neighbor”, I mean building-next-to-building. As for Georgia, Georgia has the same type of place that is becoming (or is) as famous as the answer.

Sweet! I'm on it

The only university of any merit i can find in that area is Stanford nothing about sea life though

Yes! Stanford! That's the university! You're close! . . . incredibly close!

 

[wolram]

Hopkins Marine Station, i can not find a picture though

Yes! Stanford! That's the university! You're close! . . . incredibly close!

The Hopkins Marine Station is the neighbor. What's next to it? What place next to it is somewhere you can go and visit fish and jellies and marine creatures?

 

[wolram]

Is it the library?

 

[ProfuselyQuarky]

No . . . it's right next to the Hopkins Station. Literally, I've even been there--less than 3 minute walk

It's HUGE, btw

 

[wolram]

Monterey aquarium it only shows up if one; hovers; over it

[ProfuselyQuarky]

I knew you could do it, wolram! Nice job, too, 1oldman2!

A place to see fish,
A place to see jellies,
A place to see creatures that aren’t ordinary.

Obviously, the place is an aquarium.

Located halfway up California,
It competes with the newbie that’s located in Georgia.

A huge aquarium in Georgia is gaining fame for being the largest aquarium in the world. It's competing with Monterey Bay, which is "legendary".

Its neighbor is a research station,
From a university,
That PQ wants to go to,
Very, very badly!

As you all know, its neighbor is the Hopkins Marine Station from Stanford, and, yes, I want to go to Stanford *badly*

That last clue probably won’t be much help,
But here is the last one: this place loves kelp!

The Monterey Bay aquarium's logo/symbol is a ring of kelp.

So it's your turn, unless you want someone else to go, wolram!

No . . . it

I think i will let some one else in my clues are rubbish.

Here is a quicky:
With vim and vigor these three soldiers flew and defended this land, With anger now this land has peace and an award.
Find the three soldiers.

Ah! just vague enough to be challenging, let me think... A monument maybe?

Not a monument, this puzzle is moor a word substitution game.

Now were going places,Pretty sure were not talking Triumph sports cars and aircraft has been an obsession with me since childhood. Sorry about the delays in responding but we are working around some time zone differences, patience as " I shall return"

Wait, so this is not a "place"?

post #289 is very relevant to figuring this one out.

This sounds like a specific insect, of which three instances can be found together in only one place.

Hmm . . . perhaps I'm just lost and tired because the idea that we are looking for soldiers reminds me of all the stuff in history class which makes me sleepy (expect WWII, now that's exciting).

How nice! Have you decided to play, too?

 

[1oldman2]

Along my line of thinking, Does the DH mosquito figure into this. Spitfires were a single engine These babies are twins.
