  • Olana Announces New Interpretative and Education Staff
    For Immediate Release September 22, 2014 Media Contact/Interviews: Amy Hufnagel Director of Education (518) 828-1872 x 105 Image: Paul Banks and Amy Hufnagel join Olana’s team; photo credit: Melanie Hasbrook Olana Announces New Interpretative and Education Staff Hudson, NY – The Olana State Historic Site and The Olana Partnership are pleased to announce the hire of two new staff people: Paul Banks, the new Interpretive Program Assistant for the NY State Parks Department, and Amy Hufnagel, the new Director of Education at The Olana Partnership. They both joined the project in June and will work separately, but also in partnership, to enhance the educational and interpretive opportunities at Olana. Hufnagel will be designing and implementing k-12 field trip programs, planning public programs, working with curators and development staff. Banks will focus on delivering tours to the public, managing the docent staff, and assisting Kimberly Flook, Olana’s Site Manager, with all aspects of managing Olana. Together they will develop new tours and new outreach to expand Olana’s audiences. Banks and Hufnagel are thrilled at the opportunities for engaging the public in meaningful ways here at Olana. Banks remembers the first time he saw a Frederic Church masterpiece. The Icebergs at the Dallas Museum of Art not only stopped him in his tracks, it gave him a whole new appreciation for painting. Since then, his appreciation for art has only grown – as well as his career in communication and interpretation. As an Interpretive Park Ranger with the National Park Service (NPS) he was able to inspire people by telling the stories of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.

  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

  • Former New York Yacht Club), 30 Rylan Boulevard
    Landmarks ?reservation Commission Oc-tober 12, 1982, Designation List 160 LP-1213 McFARLANE-BREDT HOUSE (former New York Yacht Club), 30 Rylan Boulevard. Borough of Staten Island. Built c.l845. Landmark Site: Borough of Staten Island Tax Map Block 2830, Lot 49, in part, consist­ ing of the land which formerly comprised Lot 40. On September 9, 1980, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hear­ ing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the McFarlane-Bredt House (former New York Yacht Club) and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing was duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Five witnesses spoke in favor of designation. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The house at 30 Rylan Boulevard, known as the McFarlane-Bredt house, is an early Victorian country villa built in the early 1840s. Its site, a broad elliptical mound on Staten Island's north shore, faces northeast and commands a magnificent view across the Narrows to New York harbor. Built as private residence, it served for three years (1868-1871) as the clubhouse of the New York Yacht Club and became the second home of that organization. "-Thile headquartered in Clifton, the club first successfully defended the America's Cup, the world's foremost yachting event. The house built for Henry and Anne McFarlane, shortly after they purchased the property in 1841, was a long, low, two-story, clapboard-covered, wooden-framed cottage with brick-filled walls designed to resemble an Italian-Swiss villa, a short lived style which rose to popularity in the 1840s along with the diminutive Greek temple and the board-and-batten Gothic cottage in an era when awakening literary tastes decreed that domestic architecture should be "romantic." If an architect designed the house for the McFarlanes, he remains unknown.
