Soylent Green is a 1973 American dystopian thriller film directed by Richard Fleischer and starring Charlton Heston and Leigh Taylor-Young. Edward G. Robinson appears in his final film. Loosely based on the 1966 science fiction novel Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison, it combines both police procedural and science fiction genres: the investigation into the murder of a wealthy businessman. In 1973 it won the Nebula Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film. In the year 2022, the cumulative effects of overpopulation and some apparent climate catastrophe has caused severe worldwide shortages of food and housing. There are 40 million people in New York City alone, where only the city's elite can afford spacious apartments, clean water and natural food, then at horrendously high prices; the homes of the elite include concubines who are referred to as "furniture" and serve the tenants as slaves. Within the city lives New York City Police Department detective Frank Thorn with his aged friend Sol Roth, a intelligent analyst, referred to as a "Book".

Roth remembers the world when it had animals and real food, possesses a small library of reference materials to assist Thorn. Thorn is tasked with investigating the murder of the wealthy and influential William R. Simonson, learns that Simonson had been assassinated and was a board member of Soylent Industries. Soylent Industries, which derives its name from a combination of "soy" and "lentil", controls the food supply of half of the world and sells the artificially produced wafers, including "Soylent Red" and "Soylent Yellow", their latest product is the far more flavorful and nutritious "Soylent Green", advertised as being made from ocean plankton, but is in short supply. As a result of the weekly supply bottlenecks, the hungry masses riot, they are brutally removed from the streets by means of police vehicles that scoop the rioters with large shovels and dump them within the vehicle's container. With the help of "furniture" Shirl, with whom Thorn begins a relationship, his investigation leads to a priest that Simonson visited and confessed to shortly before his death.

The priest is only able to hint toward a gruesome truth before he himself is murdered. By order of the governor, Thorn is instructed to end the investigation, he is attacked during a riot, by the same assassin who killed Simonson, but the killer is crushed by a police vehicle. Roth brings two volumes of oceanographic reports Thorn had procured from Simonson's apartment to the team of Books at the Supreme Exchange; the books confirm that the oceans no longer produce plankton, deduce that Soylent Green is produced from some inconceivable supply of protein. They deduce that Simonson's murder was ordered by his fellow Soylent Industries board members, knowing he was troubled by the truth. Roth is so disgusted with his life in a degraded world that he decides to "return to the home of God" and seeks assisted suicide at a government clinic. Thorn arrives too late. Roth and Thorn are mesmerized by the euthanasia process's visual and musical montage—long-gone forests, wild animals and ocean life. Before dying, Roth whispers what he has learned to Thorn, begging him to find proof, so that the Council of Nations can take action.

Thorn boards a truck transporting bodies from the euthanasia center to a recycling plant, where the secret is revealed – human corpses are being converted into Soylent Green. He is spotted and kills his attackers, but is himself wounded; as Thorn is tended to by paramedics, he urges his police chief to spread the truth he has discovered and initiate proceedings against the company. While being taken away, Thorn shouts out to the surrounding crowd, "Soylent Green is people!" Charlton Heston as Thorn Leigh Taylor-Young as Shirl Chuck Connors as Tab Joseph Cotten as Simonson Brock Peters as Hatcher Paula Kelly as Martha Edward G. Robinson as Sol Roth Stephen Young as Gilbert Mike Henry as Kulozik Lincoln Kilpatrick as The Priest Roy Jenson as Donovan Leonard Stone as Charles Whit Bissell as Santini Celia Lovsky as the Exchange Leader Dick Van Patten as Usher #1 The screenplay was based on Harry Harrison's novel Make Room! Make Room!, set in the year 1999 with the theme of overpopulation and overuse of resources leading to increasing poverty, food shortages, social disorder.

Harrison was contractually denied control over the screenplay and was not told during negotiations that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer was buying the film rights. He discussed the adaptation in Omni's Screen Flights/Screen Fantasies, the "murder and chase sequences the'furniture' girls are not what the film is about — and are irrelevant", answered his own question, "Am I pleased with the film? I would say fifty percent". While the book refers to "soylent steaks", it makes no reference to "Soylent Green", the processed food rations depicted in the film; the book's title was not used for the movie on grounds that it might have confused audiences into thinking it a big-screen version of Make Room for Daddy. This was the last movie in which Edward G. Robinson appeared. Robinson had worked with Heston in The Ten Commandments and the make-up tests for Planet of the Apes. In his book The Actor's Life: Journal 1956-1976, Heston wrote "He knew while we were shooting, though we did not, that he was terminally ill.

Post Office Hotel is a heritage-listed hotel at Bazaar Street, Fraser Coast Region, Australia. It was built in 1889 by Mr Murray, it was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992. The Post Office Hotel was built in 1889, for Messrs Hanley and Williams of Maryborough to a design of Victor Emmanuel Carandini, a Brisbane architect; the building replaced a previous single storeyed building on the site called the Post Office Hotel. The land on which the Post Office hotel was constructed was acquired by ET Aldridge by a Deed of Grant in May 1852; the original one storeyed masonry Post Office Hotel was constructed in about 1870 one year after the construction of the adjacent Maryborough Post Office, after which it was named. Aldridge retained the site until 1878 when it was sold to Mr John O'Brien, Messrs Hanley and Williams acquired the property by 1889. By this time, the Licensing Authority operating within the Maryborough district, under the provisions of the Licensing Act of 1885, were becoming more strict with the licensees of hotels about the condition of the buildings and provision of services.

In May 1889 the licensee of the former Post Office Hotel, GW Gaynor was refused a further annual licence for the single storeyed building which existed, it was decided by the owners, Messrs Hanley and Williams, that a new building was needed. On August 7, 1889 the tender of Mr Murray, a local builder, was accepted to construct a new two storeyed building to the designs of Victor Emmanuel Carandini, an architect from Brisbane. A substantial brick building was constructed in 1889 and this is the date indicated on the entrance corner parapet; the early post supported verandah which lined the two principal facades of the building, was replaced with a cantilevered version, in line with a general movement in Maryborough to modernise the central business area in the 1930s by replacing all post supported awnings with cantilevered alternatives. The early verandah extended on the ground floor to the street line and was supported on cast iron columns, featured cast iron brackets and frieze; the upper floor, which has suffered modernisation, retains the bull nosed awning, but had slender turned timber balusters and timber venetian blinds on the outside edge.

The Post Office Hotel is a two storeyed brick building, with cantilevered first floor verandah, located prominently on the corner of Wharf and Bazaar Streets, Maryborough. Principal facades address both streets, with entrance to the accommodation and dining rooms from Wharf Street and the access to the incorporated ground floor shops from Bazaar Street; the external walls to the street, of bagged and painted brick, are surmounted by a rendered brick parapet, concealing a hipped corrugated iron roof. The truncated corner of the hotel is emphasised by a signage panel, projecting beyond the parapet, with "POST OFFICE HOTEL - 1889", surmounted by an open-topped pediment; the parapet features rosettes above moulded string courses supported on paired plaster corbels. Several rendered finials are placed along the parapet, with a larger feature one on each elevation emphasising the principal entrance from that side; the building rests on a rendered masonry base. The cantilevered verandah, extending the entire length of the principal facades, has a bull-nosed awning supported on reeded cast iron columns, featuring cast iron frieze and brackets.

The timber slatted. The rear of the building has a two storeyed post supported verandah, onto which internal rooms are accessed. Openings to the ground floor have moulded plaster surrounds, retain some early joinery and leadlight glazing, although there are some replacement louvres. First floor openings are inward opening, half glazed, french doors with operable fanlights above. Internally, the ground floor comprises the public bar and entrance and stair halls off which the dining room is accessed; the dining room is clad with timber sheeting, the beaded board ceiling features cast iron ceiling roses. A carved timber chimney piece, complete with cast iron fittings remains intact, though painted; the public bar has been altered although an early glazed door remains. The cedar, three-quarter-turn open well stair features fine turned balusters, carved newel and turning posts, a swan-necked handrail; the first floor comprises many timber framed accommodation rooms clad with tongue and groove boarding and accessed from a central corridor featuring plaster arches and skylights at various intervals.

This floor remains intact, in planform and fabric, with early joinery, timber floors and internal fittings.

Parallel and west of Kennedy Boulevard, West Side Avenue carries two county route designations. West Side Avenue at its northern end begins in the Marion Section as a dead end at the PATH trains, though there is no station there After crossing Broadway and Sip Avenue it passes Holy Name Cemetery on the west and nearby Saint Peter's College to the east. "The Bubble", an air-supported structure, part of Yanitelli Center, is visible on the slope of Montgomery Street. Lincoln Park is one of the largest county parks in Hudson County and includes recreational facilities and picnicking areas. Overpasses provide pedestrian access over Truck 1-9 from the older, more urban eastern section of the park to the more natural west section on the Hackensack River; the streets ascending from the park contain an eclectic mix architectural styles including Victorian and Edwardian mansions, pre-war and Art Deco apartment buildings in the Bergen Section.
