    nia LIBRARY UNIVERSITY W CALIFORNIA SAN DIEGO NEW CLUB HOUSE PORCELLIAN CLUB CENTENNIAL 17911891 CAMBRIDGE printed at ttjr itttirnsiac press 1891 PREFATORY THE new building which, at the meeting held in Febru- ary, 1890, it was decided to erect has been completed, and is now occupied by the Club. During the period of con- struction, temporary quarters were secured at 414 Harvard Street. The new building stands upon the site of the old building which the Club had occupied since the year 1833. In order to celebrate in an appropriate manner the comple- tion of the work and the Centennial Anniversary of the Founding of the Porcellian Club, a committee, consisting of the Building Committee and the officers of the Club, was chosen. February 21, 1891, was selected as the date, and it was decided to have the Annual Meeting and certain Literary Exercises commemorative of the occasion precede the Dinner. The Committee has prepared this volume con- taining the Literary Exercises, a brief account of the Din- ner, and a catalogue of the members of the Club to date. A full account of the Annual Meeting and the Dinner may be found in the Club records. The thanks of the Committee and of the Club are due to Brothers Honorary Sargent, Isham, and Chapman for their contribution towards the success of the Exercises Literary ; also to Brother Honorary Hazeltine for his interest in pre- PREFATORY paring the plates for the memorial programme; also to Brother Honorary Painter for revising the Club Catalogue.

  • Chapter One the BEST of NEW YORK
    6484-6 Ch01.F 3/25/02 9:06 AM Page 11 Chapter One THE BEST OF NEW YORK I certainly hope that you will be reading every word in this book (and underlining the good parts in pink felt-tip pen), but I under- stand that many people are truly living the New York Minute and are constantly on a mad dash from here to there—unable to spare the time to read this guide from cover to cover. Or, you may have the time to read this entire book, but find all the possibilities overwhelming. It’s also possible that you won’t be overwhelmed by the information in this book, but find that when you actually get to New York City, you get confused just trying to figure out which way is uptown and which is down- town, let alone trying to find a specific shop in NoLita. To combat the above problems, I have created this at-a-glance chapter to help you get started quickly and easily by using these pages as a handy tip sheet. This chapter features some easy- to-locate shops where you can find what you need if you’re short on time. Each store mentioned here is explained in greater depth in later chapters, and there are plenty more shops discussed inside. Addresses in all listings are given with cross streets so that you can find your destination more easily. When taking a taxi, tell the driver the cross streets as soon as you get in the car so there is no confusion.

NYC Official Visitor Guide A Letter from the Mayor Dear Friends: As temperatures dip, autumn turns the City’s abundant foliage to brilliant colors, providing a beautiful backdrop to the five boroughs. Neighborhoods like Fort Greene in Brooklyn, Snug Harbor on Staten Island, Long Island City in Queens and Arthur Avenue in the Bronx are rich in the cultural diversity for which the City is famous. Enjoy strolling through these communities as well as among the more than 700 acres of new parkland added in the past decade. Fall also means it is time for favorite holidays. Every October, NYC streets come alive with ghosts, goblins and revelry along Sixth Avenue during Manhattan’s Village Halloween Parade. The pomp and pageantry of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in November make for a high-energy holiday spectacle. And in early December, Rockefeller Center’s signature tree lights up and beckons to the area’s shoppers and ice-skaters. The season also offers plenty of relaxing options for anyone seeking a break from the holiday hustle and bustle.

  • INTERNATIONAL MERCANTILE MARINE COMPANY BUILDING, 1 Broadway (Aka 1-3 Greenwich Street and 1 Battery Place), Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission September 19, 1995, Designation List 266 LP-1926 INTERNATIONAL MERCANTILE MARINE COMPANY BUILDING, 1 Broadway (aka 1-3 Greenwich Street and 1 Battery Place), Borough of Manhattan. Built 1882-87, Edward Hale Kendall, architect; redesigned and reclad 1919-21, Walter B. Chambers, architect. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 13, Lot 1. On May 16, 1995, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the International Mercantile Marine Company Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 1). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eleven witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including Councilwoman Kathryn Freed and representatives of State Senator Catherine Abate, the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, the Municipal Art Society, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, the Fine Arts Federation, and the Seaport Task Force of Community Board 1. No one spoke in opposition to designation. A representative of the owner attended the hearing but took no position regarding the proposed designation. The Commission has received several letters and other statements in support of designation, including a resolution from Community Board 1. Summary The International Mercantile Marine Company Building occupies a prominent and historic location at the south end of Broadway, facing both Bowling Green and Battery Park, on a lot that extends along the entire blockfront of Battery Place to Greenwich Street. The austere neo-classical style building is the result of a remodelling of the renowned red brick, Queen Anne style Washington Building (designed by Edward Hale Kendall and built in 1882-87) by Walter B.

  • GOELET BUILDING (Now SWISS CENTER BUILDING), 606-608 Fifth Avenue, Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission January 14, 1992; Designation List 241 LP-1810 GOELET BUILDING (now SWISS CENTER BUILDING), 606-608 Fifth Avenue, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1930-32; architect Victor L.S. Hafner; engineer Edward Hall Faile. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1264, Lot 40. On September 11, 1990, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Goelet Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 10). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three witnesses spoke in favor of designation. There was no opposition to the designation. Four letters have been received supporting the designation. The owner and long-term lessee are not opposed to the designa tion.1 DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary The ten-story Goelet Building at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 49th Street, built in 1930-32, was designed by Victor L. S. Hafner in the Art Deco style but modified to exhibit the supporting skeletal frame devised by the engineering firm of E. H. Faile. The spare horizontality of the lower stories' glazed curtain walls suggest that, stylistically, this building is a transitional monument between the Art Deco and the International Style. The client, Robert Goelet, acting for the Estate of Ogden Goelet, desired a building that would be comparable in architectural merit and prestige to the family mansion it replaced and which would also complement the use -- street level shops and office space above -- and modern appearance of the buildings of the adjacent Rockefeller Center, then under construction.
