However, White's influence and design pre­ dominated in those listed below: IS80 Monument to the Founder Llewellyn Park, N. Y. C. I8h Morgan, Gov. Edwin D. Vault Hartford, Conn. I8h Farragut Statue Pedestal Madison Square, N.Y.C. 1883 Winans, Ross R. Residence Baltimore, Md. 1883 Goelet, Robert Residence Newport, R. I.

In its day, the most ambitious country house in America-a monster of a house. Bennett, James Gordon yacht Namountl St. Gaudens' Standing Lincoln Pedestal Chicago, Ill. Pendleton, F. K. Residence Shinnecock, L. I. (Mr. Pendleton, an attorney, with offices at 78 Broad­ way, allowed his partner, Mr. S. 1. Parrish, to "materially modify" White's designs. Clients, as McKim often re­ marked, are difficult, uncertain, and hard to please.) Atterberry, Charles L. Residence Shinnecock, L. I. Later used as a summer home and studio by Wm. M. Chase.

In a letter to Lawrence Grant White, MacMonnies said: "It was in 1884 that I went to Paris to enter the Beaux­ Arts. Two years later Stanford White, hearing that my money had run out, sent me--unsolicited-my Drst commission, thereby enabling me to continue my studies. By this generous action at a critical time in my life, and by the beauty of the architectural settings 318 APPENDIX which he made for so many of my works, he contributed very largely to whatever success I may have had." 1890 N.

H. Residence Naugatuck, Conn. Emmons, Nathaniel H. Memorial Boston, Mass. Morgan, E. D. Residence Newport with McKim 1891 The Adams Memorial Rock Creek Cemetery, Washington, D. C. White designed the perfect frame for what is certainly the most haunting statue in America-St. Gaudens' ageless figure, shrouded and motionless, yet so alive, so detached and so content in her loneliness. She is, of course, nameless and without inscription. To some she represents Grief; to others Victory. To all she must appear to be a masterpiece. 1891 Judson Memorial Church Washington Square, N. Y. C. Though White was, of course, expert in Romanesque architecture, this was his only major exercise in Roman­ esque later than the Tiffany House designed in 1884; and even here the detail is early Renaissance. But the arcades and the tower (which give the church its im­ portance) are modelled after the early Romanesque churches of Rome. Begun in 1888, the centennial an­ niversary of the birth of the Reverend Adoniram Jud­ son, the Baptist Inissionary to Burma, the church proper, the schoolrooms, children's home and young men's APPENDIX apartment house were completed in 189 I at a cost of $ po, 500 for ground and buildings. Robb, J. Hamden Residence %3 Park Ave., (now Advertising Club) N. Y. C. Century Club New York City "In the rooms of the Century Club," Herbert Croly once said, "White was most happy in maintaining a strong suggestion of the old New York interiors-than which no atmosphere could have been more appropriate for the apartments of a club with the traditions of a century." Madison Square Garden New York City To Wm. A. Laffan, owner of the New York Sun, the tower of Madison Square Garden was "far and away the loveliest structure in New York City." Hotel Imperial B'way at 3 I St., New York City On December 10, 19%1, Royal Cortissoz said: "We are accustomed today to mural decorations in our public buildings, but the idea was new and strange when White commissioned T. W. Dewing and Edwin A. Abbey to paint important decorations for the Old Imperial Hotel, yet I would emphasize not so much the character of the specific designs which he caused to be produced. It is the spirit in which he went about the thing that counted-a spirit of glowing comradeship. He put heart into the men with whom he worked! Merely to have White with him was, for an artist, half the battle." Lorillard, Pierre Residence Tuxedo Park, N.Y.

Although Congress first recognized a need to conserve the nation's wealth of historic amenities in 1906 when it adopted The Antiquities Act,' it was only with the nation's bicentennial that the volume and diversity of laws designed to maintain, protect and preserve historic America grew to the point where it could be said that a new field of law had emerged.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 15, 1998, Designation List 300 LP-2027 GORHAM BUILDING, 390 Fifth Avenue, aka 386-390 Fifth Avenue and 2-6 West 36th Street, Manhattan. Built 1904-1906; architect Stanford White of McKim, Mead and White. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 837, Lot 48. On September 15, 1998, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Gorham Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Seven witnesses representing Manhattan Community Board 5, the Murray Hill Association, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, the Beaux Arts Alliance, the Society for the Architecture of the City, the Municipal Art Society, and the Historic Districts Council spoke in favor of designation. The owner of the building submitted a letter asking that the hearing be adjourned to another date. The hearing was closed with the proviso that it could be reopened at a later date if the owner wished to testify. The owner subsequently declined to do so. There were no speakers in opposition to this designation. The Commission also has received a letter in support of the designation from a local resident. Summary This elegant commercial building, constructed in 1904-05 for the Gorham Manufacturing Company, contained its wholesale and retail showrooms, offices, and workshops. Designed by Stanford White of the prominent architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White, the eight-story building is an adaptation of an early Florentine Renaissance sty le palazzo incorporating a two-story arcade, a four-story mid-section, and a two-story loggia.

  • Landmarks Preservation Commission November 22, 2016, Designation List 490 LP-2579
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 22, 2016, Designation List 490 LP-2579 YALE CLUB OF NEW YORK CITY 50 Vanderbilt Avenue (aka 49-55 East 44th Street), Manhattan Built 1913-15; architect, James Gamble Rogers Landmark site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1279, Lot 28 On September 13, 2016, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the Yale Club of New York City and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site. The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Six people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of the Yale Club of New York City, Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer, Historic Districts Council, New York Landmarks Conservancy, and the Municipal Art Society of New York. The Real Estate Board of New York submitted written testimony in opposition to designation. State Senator Brad Hoylman submitted written testimony in support of designation. Summary The Yale Club of New York City is a Renaissance Revival-style skyscraper at the northwest corner of Vanderbilt Avenue and East 44th Street. For more than a century it has played an important role in East Midtown, serving the Yale community and providing a handsome and complementary backdrop to Grand Central Terminal. Constructed on property that was once owned by the New York Central Railroad, it stands directly above two levels of train tracks and platforms. This was the ideal location to build the Yale Club, opposite the new terminal, which serves New Haven, where Yale University is located, and at the east end of “clubhouse row.” The architect was James Gamble Rogers, who graduated from Yale College in 1889 and attended the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris during the 1890s.

  • HARD FACTS and SOFT SPECULATION Thierry De Duve
    THE STORY OF FOUNTAIN: HARD FACTS AND SOFT SPECULATION Thierry de Duve ABSTRACT Thierry de Duve’s essay is anchored to the one and perhaps only hard fact that we possess regarding the story of Fountain: its photo in The Blind Man No. 2, triply captioned “Fountain by R. Mutt,” “Photograph by Alfred Stieglitz,” and “THE EXHIBIT REFUSED BY THE INDEPENDENTS,” and the editorial on the facing page, titled “The Richard Mutt Case.” He examines what kind of agency is involved in that triple “by,” and revisits Duchamp’s intentions and motivations when he created the fictitious R. Mutt, manipulated Stieglitz, and set a trap to the Independents. De Duve concludes with an invitation to art historians to abandon the “by” questions (attribution, etc.) and to focus on the “from” questions that arise when Fountain is not seen as a work of art so much as the bearer of the news that the art world has radically changed. KEYWORDS, Readymade, Fountain, Independents, Stieglitz, Sanitary pottery Then the smell of wet glue! Mentally I was not spelling art with a capital A. — Beatrice Wood1 No doubt, Marcel Duchamp’s best known and most controversial readymade is a men’s urinal tipped on its side, signed R. Mutt, dated 1917, and titled Fountain. The 2017 centennial of Fountain brought us a harvest of new books and articles on the famous or infamous urinal. I read most of them in the hope of gleaning enough newly verified facts to curtail my natural tendency to speculate. But newly verified facts are few and far between.
