  • Duke Ellington Monument Unveiled in Central Park Tatum, Elinor
    Document 1 of 1 Duke Ellington monument unveiled in Central Park Tatum, Elinor. New York Amsterdam News [New York, N.Y] 05 July 1997: 14:3. Abstract A monument to jazz legend Duke Ellington was unveiled at Duke Ellington Circle on the northeast corner of Central Park on Jul 1, 1997. The jet black, 25-ft-high memorial was sculpted by Robert Graham and depicts Ellington, standing by his piano. The statue is a gift from the Duke Ellington Memorial Fund, founded by Bobby Short. Full Text Duke Ellington monument unveiled in Central Park The four corners of Central Park are places of honor. On the southwest gateway to the park are monuments and a statue of Christopher Columbus. On the southeast corner is a statue of General William Tecumseh Sherman. Now, on the northeast corner of the park, one of the greatest jazz legends of all time and a Harlem hero, the great Duke Ellington, stands firmly with his piano and his nine muses to guard the entrance to the park and to Harlem from now until eternity. The monument to Duke Ellington was over 18 years in the making, and finally, the dream of Bobby Short, the founder of the Duke Ellington Memorial Fund, came to its fruition with the unveiling ceremony at Duke Ellington Circle on 110th Street and Fifth Avenue on Tuesday. Hundreds of fans, family, friends and dignitaries came out to celebrate the life of Duke Ellington as he took his place of honor at the corner of Central Park. The jet black, 25-foot-high memorial sculpted by Robert Graham stands high in the sky, with Ellington standing by his piano, supported by three pillars of three muses each.

  • Frederick Douglass Circle Modification Proposal to Prevent Skateboarding Vandalism, Neighborhood Disturbance and to Promote a Healthy and Safe Environment
    CITY OF NEW YORK MANHATTAN COMMUNITY BOARD 10 215 West 125th Street, 4th Floor—New York, NY 10027 T: 212-749-3105 F: 212-662-4215 BRIAN A. BENJAMIN Chairperson ANDREW LASSALLE District Manager March 3, 2017 Mitchell J. Silver, FAICP Commissioner New York City Department of Parks & Recreation 830 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10065 Re: Frederick Douglass Circle Modification Proposal to prevent skateboarding vandalism, neighborhood disturbance and to promote a healthy and safe environment Dear Commissioner Silver: Manhattan Community Board (CB) 10 is writing this letter in support of the Frederick Douglass Circle Modification Proposal to prevent skateboarding vandalism, neighborhood disturbance and to promote a healthy and safe environment. The pedestrian plaza is located on West 110th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard. The New York City Department of Design and Construction, on behalf of the New York City Department of Transportation, New York City Department of Parks, New York City Department of Planning, and New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, worked on the design and reconstruction of the circle. The memorial, located at the northwest corner of Central Park honors the African-American abolitionist, orator, writer and statesman Frederick Douglass (1818-1895), and consists of an eight-foot bronze portrait sculpture by Gabriel Koren, and a large circle and fountain with ornamental and symbolic features designed by Algernon Miller. Frederick Douglass Circle is also a traffic circle which connects the New York City neighborhoods of Harlem with the Upper West Side. In the mid to late 1990s, a series of community-based design workshops organized by the Central Park Conservancy and later the Cityscape Institute led to a design competition for the circle in 2003--won by a collaborative proposal submitted by Harlem-based artist Algernon Miller and Hungarian-born sculptor Gabriel Koren.

  • Manhattan Community Board Input Regarding Intersections in Need of Pedestrian Safety and Traffic Calming Measures (Updated February 13, 2014)
    T HE CITY OF NE W Y ORK OFFICE OF THE P RESIDENT BOROUGH OF M ANHATTAN Gale A. Brewer BOROUGH PRESIDENT Manhattan Community Board Input Regarding Intersections in Need of Pedestrian Safety and Traffic Calming Measures (Updated February 13, 2014) The list of preliminary locations was identified by the Community Boards for discussion at the Manhattan Borough Service Cabinet level and submitted to the Mayor’s Vision Zero Task Force on January 30, 2014 for further attention and analysis. Because each Community Board used its own criteria to develop its list, this cumulative list of intersections may contain areas where there are objective reasons for concerns and/or subjective reasons for concern. Some reasons given by Community Boards for inclusion of certain locations on their lists include, but are not limited to: site of pedestrian fatality or injury, speeding, signal timing issues, enforcement, crossing times and vehicle turns. This list is not meant to be exhaustive or definitive, and was not voted on by the Borough Board, but represents community input to help inform the Task Force work ahead. Community Board 1 1. South End Avenue at Liberty, Rector, and West Thames Street 2. Battery Place and First Place (the area in front of PS 276) 3.
