  • Museum of American Finance
    By Katie Petito Alexander Hamilton would be proud. Founded in 1794 by Hamilton, the first treasury secretary of the U.S., the Bank of New York, opened its first building at the Walton House in Lower Manhattan on June 9, 1784, only a few months after the departure of British troops from American soil. In 1797, the Bank laid the cornerstone for its first building at 48 Wall Street – a two-story Georgian building that served as the bank’s headquarters through the beginning of the 19th century. Although the original building no longer stands, its cornerstone can be seen at the current 48 Wall Street building. The 48 Wall Street building, located one block east of the New York Stock Exchange, will be the new home to the Museum of American Finance. The 30,000-square foot space occupies three of the landmark building’s 36 floors, increasing the Museum’s exhibit space by ten-fold. The Museum, now housed in the Standard Oil Building at 26 Broadway, will open in its new location in early spring 2007, but will honor its financial roots sooner with a symposium on January 11, 2007, to celebrate Alexander Hamilton’s 250th birthday. The symposium will also offer guests a sneak peek at the Museum’s Alexander Hamilton exhibit. A grand opening for the general public will be announced at a later date. “Perhaps there is no more fitting home for the Museum of American Finance than the former headquarters of New York’s first bank, which was founded by Alexander Hamilton, creator of our nation’s financial system,” said John Herzog, founder and chair of the Museum.

  • Skyscrapers and District Heating, an Inter-Related History 1876-1933
    Skyscrapers and District Heating, an inter-related History 1876-1933. Introduction: The aim of this article is to examine the relationship between a new urban and architectural form, the skyscraper, and an equally new urban infrastructure, district heating, both of witch were born in the north-east United States during the late nineteenth century and then developed in tandem through the 1920s and 1930s. These developments will then be compared with those in Europe, where the context was comparatively conservative as regards such innovations, which virtually never occurred together there. I will argue that, the finest example in Europe of skyscrapers and district heating planned together, at Villeurbanne near Lyons, is shown to be the direct consequence of American influence. Whilst central heating had appeared in the United Kingdom in the late eighteenth and the early nineteenth centuries, district heating, which developed the same concept at an urban scale, was realized in Lockport (on the Erie Canal, in New York State) in the 1880s. In United States were born the two important scientists in the fields of heating and energy, Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) and Benjamin Thompson Rumford (1753-1814). Standard radiators and boilers - heating surfaces which could be connected to central or district heating - were also first patented in the United States in the late 1850s.1 A district heating system produces energy in a boiler plant - steam or high-pressure hot water - with pumps delivering the heated fluid to distant buildings, sometimes a few kilometers away. Heat is therefore used just as in other urban networks, such as those for gas and electricity.
