    ARCHITECTURAL AND CULTURAL Map &Guide FRIENDS of the Upper East Side Historic Districts Architectural and Cultural Map and Guide Founded in 1982, FRIENDS of the Upper East Side Historic Districts is an independent, not-for-profit membership organization dedicated to preserving the architectural legacy, livability, and sense of place of the Upper East Side by monitoring and protecting its seven Historic Districts, 131 Individual Landmarks, and myriad significant buildings. Walk with FRIENDS as we tour some of the cultural and architectural sites that make the Upper East Side such a distinctive place. From elegant apartment houses and mansions to more modest brownstones and early 20th-century immigrant communities, the Upper East Side boasts a rich history and a wonderfully varied built legacy. With this guide in hand, immerse yourself in the history and architecture of this special corner of New York City. We hope you become just as enchanted by it as we are. FRIENDS’ illustrated Architectural and Cultural Map and Guide includes a full listing of all of the Upper East Side’s 131 Individual Landmarks. You can find the location of these architectural gems by going to the map on pages 2-3 of the guide and referring to the numbered green squares. In the second section of the guide, we will take you through the history and development of the Upper East Side’s seven Historic Districts, and the not landmarked, though culturally and architecturally significant neighborhood of Yorkville. FRIENDS has selected representative sites that we feel exemplify each district’s unique history and character. Each of the districts has its own color-coded map with easy-to-read points that can be used to find your own favorite site, or as a self-guided walking tour the next time you find yourself out strolling on the Upper East Side.

Unlike areas of urban blight, rural alums are notslums of despair by any means. "Slums of despair" is a term used in a receit study of urban life to describe those areas in someof our inner cities whose inhabitants feel they are utterly trapped--thatthey stand little chance of improving their lot. In thestudy, these desperate regions were contrasted with so-called "slumsof hope," where there was some visible evidence that government orthe community was committed to building new housing orrehabilitating what existed, as well as to creating jobs. This bookis concerned with the ways in which America's hopeless slumsmight be turned into healthy communities. In city after city, the reductionof housing stock has far outstripped the total constructionof new housing. The reasons for this erosion ofbadly needed low-rent housing are complex. Housing subsidies--which means,primarily, subsidies for land acquisition, mortgage interest and rent--areabsolutely essential if new housing is to be created to meet theneeds of low-income families.

  • CTA Completes $1.1 Million Redevelopment/Upgrade of 5650 S/F Refuse Storage
    CTA completes $1.1 million redevelopment/upgrade of 5,650 s/f refuse storage; Team includes: Galli Engineering, Cabo and Domingo Gonzales March 20, 2018 - Design / Build Manhattan, NY CTA Architects P.C. (CTA) has completed the $1.1 million redevelopment and upgrade of the 5,650 s/f refuse storage area at Morningside Gardens, a six-building co-op complex in West Harlem’s Morningside Heights section. Morningside Gardens features 980 apartments housing many of New York City’s professionals, including Columbia University and Barnard College employees. CTA had previously served the client, Morningside Heights Housing Corporation (MHHC), as the architect for the $10 million exterior restoration of the complex. Prior to the renovation, the refuse collection area was unsightly, with storage sheds that served as temporary holding areas for garbage bags without any permanent containers. It had an unappealing perimeter chain-link fence and an uneven and deteriorating asphalt surface that led to a drainage problem. Pools of water polluted with refuse would accumulate after it had rained.
