    NEW YORK CITY DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND MENTAL HYGIENE Mary T. Bassett, MD, MPH Commissioner 2018 DOHMH Advisory #8: Tickborne Disease Advisory Please share with your colleagues in Internal and Family Medicine, Pediatrics, Infectious Disease, Infection Control, Laboratory Medicine, Hematology, Cardiology, Neurology, Rheumatology, Critical Care and Emergency Medicine. Tickborne diseases, with the exception of Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), are associated primarily with travel outside of New York City (NYC). Locally acquired cases of Lyme disease and babesiosis continue to be reported from Staten Island and smaller numbers have been reported from the Bronx. Isolated cases of locally acquired anaplasmosis and ehrlichiosis have also been reported from Staten Island. The following tickborne diseases are reportable in NYC: Lyme disease, RMSF, babesiosis, anaplasmosis, ehrlichiosis, and Powassan disease. Refer to the Reference Manual for Physicians on Tickborne Diseases in the New York City Area for extensive details and guidance on identification, diagnosis, treatment and prevention available at: http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/ehs/tick-borne-dx-physician.pdf. Call 311 to order copies. May 30, 2018 Dear Colleagues, New York City (NYC) clinicians should be on the alert for patients with tickborne diseases. This advisory presents key epidemiologic findings regarding reportable tickborne diseases in NYC and reminds clinicians of reporting requirements. Please refer to the revised 3rd edition of the Reference Manual for Physicians on Tickborne Diseases in the New York City Area for details and guidance on identification, diagnosis, treatment and prevention available at: http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/ehs/tick-borne-dx-physician.pdf or call 311 to order copies.

  • Percent for Art in New York City
    Percent for Art in New York City 1965 Mayor Robert Wagner issues an executive order supporting the inclusion of artwork in City buildings. Few agencies take advantage of this opportunity. 1971-1975 Doris Freedman (1928-1981), founder of the Public Art Fund and Director of the Office of Cultural Affairs within the Department of Parks and Recreation and Culture, drafts Percent for Art legislation and begins to lobby the City Council. The City becomes immersed in a fiscal crisis and the legislation lies dormant. 1976 The Office of Cultural Affairs becomes a separate agency: The Department of Cultural Affairs (DCA). 1978 Edward I. Koch is elected Mayor of New York City. 1981 As the City emerges from fiscal crisis, the administration and City Council begin to contemplate Percent for Art legislation. Deputy Mayor Ronay Menschel and Chief of Staff Diane Coffey are key advocates. 1982 City Council passes Percent for Art legislation; Mayor Koch signs it into law. Percent for Art Law requires that one percent of the budget for eligible City-funded construction is dedicated to creating public artworks. 1983 The Percent for Art law is enacted. Overseen by DCA Commissioner Henry Geldzahler and Deputy Commissioner Randall Bourscheidt, the program is initially administered by the Public Art Fund (Director, Jenny Dixon). Jennifer McGregor is the program’s Administrator. Following the example of the City’s Percent for Art legislation, the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) establishes a similar program for its capital construction projects. During the early years of its existence, the MTA’s art selection panels are chaired and coordinated by DCA’s commissioner.

  • Harlem Transportation Study
    3.0 LAND USE AND ZONING Zoning The city is divided into three basic zoning districts: residential (R), commercial (C), and manufacturing (M). The three basic categories are further subdivided into lower, medium, and higher density residential, commercial and manufacturing districts. Development within these districts is regulated by use, building size, and parking regulations. Here is a brief description of the three basic zoning districts according to the Zoning Handbook: Residential District (R) In New York City, there are ten standard residential districts, R1 through R10. The numbers refer to the permitted density (R1 having the lowest density and R10 the highest) and other controls such as required parking. A second letter or number signifies additional controls are required in certain districts. R1 and R2 districts allow only detached single-family residences and certain community facilities. The R3-2 through R10 districts accept all types of dwelling units and community facilities and are distinguished by differing bulk and density, height and setback, parking, and lot coverage or open space requirements. Commercial District (C) The commercial districts reflect the full range of commercial activity in the city from local retail and service establishmentsDRAFT to high density, shopping, entertainment and office uses. There are eight basic commercial districts where two (C1 and C2 districts) are designed to serve local needs, one district (C4) is for shopping centers outside the central business district, two (C5 and C6 districts) are for the central business districts which embrace the office, retail, and commercial functions that serve the city and region, and three (C3, C7, and C8 districts) are designed for special purposes (waterfront activity, large commercial amusement parks and heavy repair services).

  • Bartow-Pell: a Family Legacy
    Lesson Plan: Bartow-Pell: A Family Legacy Architect: Minard Lafever, with John Bolton, local carpenter, both friends of the Bartow family. Site: Bartow-Pell Mansion Curriculum Link: High School US History and Government (this is a review activity that brings together several units of study) Unit Two: A:2:a and c The peoples and peopling of the American colonies (voluntary and involuntary)—Native American Indians (relations between colonists and Native American Indians, trade, alliances, forced labor, warfare) and Varieties of immigrant motivation, ethnicities, and experiences. A:4 The Revolutionary War and the Declaration of Independence D:1 The Constitution in jeopardy: The American Civil War 7th and 8th Grade Social Studies I. European Exploration and Settlement D. Exploration and settlement of the New York State area by the Dutch and English 1. Relationships between the colonists and the Native American Indians 4. Rivalry between the Dutch and English eventually resulting in English supremacy Project Aim: Through an investigation of the long history of the Bartow-Pell estate, students discover the far-reaching influence of this family in American history throughout their long occupation of this property. Students will also be able to contextualize history as a series of events that are caused by and effect the lives of real people. Students will be able to imagine the great events of American history through the lens of a family local to the Bronx. Vocabulary: Greek Revival: A style of art that was popular in the 19th Century that was a reaction to Baroque Art. This style was derived from the art and culture of ancient Greece and imitated this period’s architecture and fascination for order and simplicity.

  • To Download Three Wonder Walks
    Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) Featuring Walking Routes, Collections and Notes by Matthew Jensen Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) The High Line has proven that you can create a des- tination around the act of walking. The park provides a museum-like setting where plants and flowers are intensely celebrated. Walking on the High Line is part of a memorable adventure for so many visitors to New York City. It is not, however, a place where you can wander: you can go forward and back, enter and exit, sit and stand (off to the side). Almost everything within view is carefully planned and immaculately cultivated. The only exception to that rule is in the Western Rail Yards section, or “W.R.Y.” for short, where two stretch- es of “original” green remain steadfast holdouts. It is here—along rusty tracks running over rotting wooden railroad ties, braced by white marble riprap—where a persistent growth of naturally occurring flora can be found. Wild cherry, various types of apple, tiny junipers, bittersweet, Queen Anne’s lace, goldenrod, mullein, Indian hemp, and dozens of wildflowers, grasses, and mosses have all made a home for them- selves. I believe they have squatters’ rights and should be allowed to stay. Their persistence created a green corridor out of an abandoned railway in the first place. I find the terrain intensely familiar and repre- sentative of the kinds of landscapes that can be found when wandering down footpaths that start where streets and sidewalks end. This guide presents three similarly wild landscapes at the beautiful fringes of New York City: places with big skies, ocean views, abun- dant nature, many footpaths, and colorful histories.
