DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Association Residence for Respectable Aged Indigent Females, a prominent feature of the Manhattan Valley neighborhood of Manhattan's Upper West Side, was constructed in 1881-83 for one of New York City's oldest charitable institutions. The design, in a French-inspired style which recalls the Victorian Gothic, was by the "dean" of nineteenth-century American architects, Richard Monr.is Hunt. The building remains one of Hunt's few surviving significant New York City structures and a fine example of ninteenth-century institutional architecture. The Association In the midst of the nation's involvement in the War of 1812, a group of socially prominent New York City women formed an association in 1813 to aid women who were left poor wid ows by the current war or by the previous Revolutionary War.

  • 140 West 57Th Street Studio Building, (The Beaufort) 140 West 57Th Street, (Aka 134-140 West 57Th Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission October 19, 1999, Designation List 310 LP-2043 140 West 57th Street Studio Building, (The Beaufort) 140 West 57th Street, (aka 134-140 West 57th Street), Manhattan. Built, 1907-08, Pollard & Steinam, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1009, Lot 50. On July 13, 1999, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 140 West 57th Street Studio Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. There were five speakers in support of designation, including a representative of the owner of the building, as well as representatives of the Landmarks Conservancy, the Society for the Architecture of the City, and the Historic Districts Council. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. In addition, the Commission has received letters from Assemblyman Richard N. Gottfried and from Community Board 5 in support of designation. Summary Built in 1907-08 to provide living and working facilities for artists, the studio building at 140 West 57th Street is a rare surviving example of this unusual building type, and a reminder of the early twentieth century period when West 57th Street was a center of artistic activities. Designed by architects Pollard & Steinam, who had previously created several artists’ studio cooperatives on West 67th Street, this building profited from the experience of the developers and builders who had worked on the earlier structures. The artists’ studio building type, was developed early in the twentieth century, and was an important step toward the acceptance of apartment living for wealthy New Yorkers.

Built 1883-1885, 1889; architect, James Edward Ware; 1906, architect, Alfred S.G. Taylor. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan, Tax Map Block 1029, Lot 27. On December 12, 1989, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Osborne Apartments and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 34). The hearing was continued to April 3, 1990 (Item No. 25), and then to July 10, 1990 (Item No. 5). All three hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. A total of seven witnesses at the three hearings spoke in favor of designation. Two witnesses were opposed to designation. The Commission received numerous letters both in support of and in opposition to designation. The Board of Directors of the Osborne Apartments has expressed support for the designation.1 DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary The Osborne Apartments, built in 1883-85 and designed by the talented and prolific architect James E. Ware, was one of the earliest luxury apartment buildings in New York City. Constructed in what by 1890 had become New York's first apartment house district, near Central Park, this architecturally-impressive building is a rare surviving example of the original development in this city of multi-family dwellings for well-to-do residents, an increasingly important building type in the 1880s. The Osborne's design draws elements from the popular Romanesque Revival style, such as the heavy, rusticated stone exterior with deeply set windows, for a sense of solidity; these are combined in a bold and original manner with the refinement, proportions, and strong horizontality of the emerging Renaissance Revival style.

  • A.K. Sandoval-Strausz, "Homes for a World of Strangers: Hospitality And
    HOMES FOR A WORLD OF STRANGERS Hospitality and the Origins of Multiple Dwellings in Urban America A. K. SANDOVAL-STRAUSZ University of New Mexico Our historical understanding of the origins and development of multiple dwellings is incomplete. The standard account involves people struggling to establish permanent homes despite overcrowding and hypercompetitive housing markets. But there was another line of development for multiple dwellings in America—one that followed the spatial logic of hospitality rather than domesticity. Instead of evolving out of residential structures, it arose from the practice of providing travelers and strangers with temporary shelter, food, refreshment, and household services. Empirically, this article offers a significant revision of the history of urban housing, one that involves a distinctive set of imperatives and a different morphol- ogy. Theoretically, it contends that our analysis of the urban landscape, with its longtime emphasis on the production and distribution of goods, would benefit from another look at the interrelated phenomena of mobility, transience, and anonymity—classic symptoms of urbanism that were foundational concepts in early urban theory. Keywords: hotel; apartment; housing; hospitality; architecture Multiple dwellings like tenements and apartment buildings are among the most characteristic features of the American urban landscape. This category of housing is functionally linked with many of the conditions we think of as distinctively urban, including the geographic concentration of large popula- tions, high-density living and working arrangements, industrialization and other forms of economic intensification, and the emergence and reproduction of street life and public culture. Not every city in the United States fits this model, since many municipalities still consist mainly of single-family detached houses.

The people of Buffalo have decided, and not without good reasons, that their favorite district is that called the Elmwood.” -- "The New Elmwood District," Greater Buffalo . (1902) “Nature and man seem to have worked harmoniously in the creation of what is known as Buffalo’s ‘Elmwood District.” -- “The New Elmwood District,” Commerce. (August, 1903) OVERVIEW The Elmwood Historic District is significant under Criterion A in the area of Community Planning and Development and C in the area of Architecture as an exceptional, highly intact residential neighborhood located in the City of Buffalo . Much of the district’s architecture and planning represents the first era of street-car suburbanization in Buffalo, which occurred during the golden age of industrial, economic and population growth following the Civil War. The district contains nearly 5,000 resources. For the purposes of managing the National Register listing process, the district has been divided along the commercial spine of Elmwood Avenue into the Elmwood Historic District (West) and the Elmwood Historic District (East). This nomination documents the Elmwood Historic District (East) portion of the district on the National Register, while providing a historic context for both. The Elmwood Historic District (West) was listed on the NY State and National Registers in 2012.
