Davis, RPA Deborah Van Steen The Louis Berger Group, Inc. New York, New York February 2009 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) is seeking discretionary actions in order to facilitate the redevelopment of a nine-block area known as Broadway Triangle, located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The Proposed Action includes zoning map amendments to generally rezone the existing M1-2 Manufacturing District to Residential and Commercial Districts; zoning text amendments to establish Inclusionary Housing in the proposed R6A and R7A zoning districts; the disposition of City-owned properties; Urban Development Action Area Projects designation; the modification of an Urban Renewal Plan; and City Acquisition through eminent domain. The Project Area encompasses approximately 31 acres and is generally bounded by Flushing Avenue to the south, Throop Avenue to the east, Lynch Street to the north, and Union Avenue, Walton Street, and Harrison Avenue to the west. As part of this action, the HPD is undertaking an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed Broadway Triangle Redevelopment Project. Consideration for cultural resources, including both archaeological and historic architectural resources, must be undertaken as part of the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) process.

HUIB VAN LAAR. IMAGE COPYRIGHT MUSEON, THE HAGUE, NETHERLANDS. Though POWs in other camps in Thailand produced amazing musical and theatrical offerings for their audiences, it was the performers in Chungkai who, arguably, produced the most diverse, elaborate, and astonishing entertainment on the Thailand-Burma railway. Between Christmas 1943 and May 1945 they presented over sixty-five musical or theatrical productions. As there is more detailed information about the administration, production, and reception of the entertainment at Chungkai than at any other camp on the railway, the focus in this chapter will be on those productions and personalities that stand out in some significant way artistically, technically, or politically. To cover this material adequately, the chapter will be divided into two parts: Part One will cover the period from mid-October 1942 to mid-May 1944; Part Two, from mid-May 1944 to July 1945.

    Rapid Transit in Toronto Levyrapidtransit.Ca TABLE of CONTENTS

    The Neptis Foundation has collaborated with Edward J. Levy to publish this history of rapid transit proposals for the City of Toronto. Given Neptis’s focus on regional issues, we have supported Levy’s work because it demon- strates clearly that regional rapid transit cannot function eff ectively without a well-designed network at the core of the region. Toronto does not yet have such a network, as you will discover through the maps and historical photographs in this interactive web-book. We hope the material will contribute to ongoing debates on the need to create such a network. This web-book would not been produced without the vital eff orts of Philippa Campsie and Brent Gilliard, who have worked with Mr. Levy over two years to organize, edit, and present the volumes of text and illustrations. 1 Rapid Transit in Toronto levyrapidtransit.ca TABLE OF CONTENTS 6 INTRODUCTION 7 About this Book 9 Edward J.

Vol 12 MAIN LINE No 6 The Monthly Bulletin of the New England Electric Railway Historical Society Libraries April 2020 August 2020 Goings On at Seashore - Members Day was held on Saturday, August 29th from 10AM-5PM. Various events were carried online via Zoom to make participation possible for those not able to attend. Zoom events included at 10:50AM: Special Ride on D.C. Transit 1304, 11:45AM: Riverside Dedication Ceremony for John Middleton, 1PM: Roundtable with the Executive Director, 1:30PM: Bylaws Roundtable, and at 2:30PM Worldwide Trolley/Tram Identification Trivia. The weather decided not to cooperate but things went off amazingly well - if slightly damp. The live Zoom-cast from D.C. Transit No.#1304 was rather amazing. While there were some audio hiccups the video from the car was quite good. I for one had never participated in a mobile Zoom event before. The museum’s two MBTA 01400s (Pullman-Standard Car Co., 1963 Rapid Transit Cars), a New Direction (5-year plan) strategic restoration project, were available for viewing in front of the Highwood Carbarn.

Katie Orlando leading the roundtable ceremonies to dedicate the Riverside Car House in the memory of John Middleton I was grabbing the above Zoom images off of my computer through screen shots so apologies for the quality. Pumpkin Patch Trolley events will be held on September 25, 26, 27 and October 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, & 11 from 11AM-3PM.
