  • Marine Midland Bank 11/4/96 PE
    GENERAL INFORMATION The Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) requires each federal financial supervisory agency to use its authority when examining financial institutions subject to its supervision, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its entire community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with safe and sound operation of the institution. Upon conclusion of such examination, the agency must prepare a written evaluation of the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its community. This document is an evaluation of the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) performance of Marine Midland Bank prepared by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the institution's supervisory agency, as of November 4, 1996. The agency evaluates performance in assessment area(s), as they are delineated by the institution, rather than individual branches. This assessment area evaluation may include the visits to some, but not necessarily all of the institution's branches. The agency rates the CRA performance of an institution consistent with the provisions set forth in Appendix A to 12 CFR Part 228. The new CRA regulation will be phased in over a two year period beginning July 1, 1995. During that period, banks with total assets greater than $250 million will be examined under the current regulation with its twelve assessment factors until July 1, 1997. However, to comply with the requirements of Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994, this evaluation includes conclusions with respect to overall performance as well as the bank=s performance in each Metropolitan Statistical Area and Non-Metropolitan Statistical Area which the bank has delineated for CRA purposes 96CAE28\Marine\ect\D#50 DSBB No.

  • 140 BROADWAY, Originally the Marine Midland Bank Building (Aka 71-89 Cedar Street, 54- 74 Liberty Street, 27-39 Nassau Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 25, 2013, Designation List 465 LP-2530 140 BROADWAY, originally the Marine Midland Bank Building (aka 71-89 Cedar Street, 54- 74 Liberty Street, 27-39 Nassau Street), Manhattan. Built 1964-68; Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, architect; Gordon Bunshaft, partner in charge of design; Roger N. Radford, lead designer Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 48, Lot 1 On April 2, 2013, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of 140 Broadway and the proposed designation of the Landmark site (Item No. 1). The hearing was duly advertised according to law. Four people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of Docomomo US/New York Tri-State, the Historic Districts Council, and the New York Landmarks Conservancy. A second hearing was held on May 13, 2013 (Item No. 1) in which three representatives of the owner spoke in support of designation. Summary A critically-acclaimed example of mid- 20thcentury modernism, the former Marine Midland Bank Building at 140 Broadway was completed in early 1968. Architect Gordon Bunshaft, of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, was the partner in charge of the minimalist design – a matte black aluminum and bronze-tinted glass skyscraper that The New York Times architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable later described as “not only one of [the] buildings I admire most in New York, but that I admire most anywhere.” Erwin S. Wolfson assembled the trapezoidal site by 1961, covering an entire block between Nassau Street and Broadway, and following his death, a revised 51-story scheme was commissioned by developers Harry Helmsley and Lawrence A.
