  • Architect Biographies a Number of Architects Made a Distinct
    Architect Biographies A number of architects made a distinct contribution to the architectural character of the North Beach area of the city of Miami Beach. Some of the more important individuals are listed below. Joseph J. DeBrita (1901-1992) practiced in Miami Beach from the 1930s to the 1950s. He designed dozens of residential, hotel, and apartment buildings in the Art Deco, Classical Revival, and Post-War Modern styles. These include the Villa Luisa and Ocean Blue hotels on Ocean Drive, the Dorset and Coral Reef hotels on Collins Avenue, and the Eastview Apartments (Marriott) on Washington Avenue. With architect A. Kononoff, he designed the classical revival Mount Vernon and Monticello (Harding) hotels at 63rd Street in 1946. Other notable buildings by DeBrita include the Tropicaire Hotel at 880 71st Street, and apartment buildings located at 7725 Byron Avenue and 1208 71st Street. L. Murray Dixon (1901–1949) was a native of Live Oak, Florida, educated at the Georgia Institute of Technology (1918–1919). After Dixon moved to Miami Beach, he designed, beginning in 1933, over 100 surviving buildings in the Miami Beach Architectural District (N.R. 1979). In his short lifetime, he became one of Miami Beach’s most prolific and talented designers of hotels, residences and commercial buildings. Some of the many hotels Dixon designed are The Tides, Victor, Tiffany, Marlin, Ritz Plaza and Raleigh, along with numerous apartment buildings. In North Beach, he designed the Normandy Plaza Hotel at 6979 Collins Avenue and a number of apartment buildings, including 920 Bay Drive; 7345 Byron Avenue; 7625 Abbott Avenue; and 320–328 80th Street.

  • Challenges and Achievements
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Arts and Architecture NISEI ARCHITECTS: CHALLENGES AND ACHIEVEMENTS A Thesis in Architecture by Katrin Freude © 2017 Katrin Freude Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Architecture May 2017 The Thesis of Katrin Freude was reviewed and approved* by the following: Alexandra Staub Associate Professor of Architecture Thesis Advisor Denise Costanzo Associate Professor of Architecture Thesis Co-Advisor Katsuhiko Muramoto Associate Professor of Architecture Craig Zabel Associate Professor of Art History Head of the Department of Art History Ute Poerschke Associate Professor of Architecture Director of Graduate Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii Abstract Japanese-Americans and their culture have been perceived very ambivalently in the United States in the middle of the twentieth century; while they mostly faced discrimination for their ethnicity by the white majority in the United States, there has also been a consistent group of admirers of the Japanese art and architecture. Nisei (Japanese-Americans of the second generation) architects inherited the racial stigma of the Japanese minority but increasingly benefited from the new aesthetic light that was cast, in both pre- and post-war years, on Japanese art and architecture. This thesis aims to clarify how Nisei architects dealt with this ambivalence and how it was mirrored in their professional lives and their built designs. How did architects, operating in the United States, perceive Japanese architecture? How did these perceptions affect their designs? I aim to clarify these influences through case studies that will include such general issues as (1) Japanese-Americans’ general cultural evolution, (2) architects operating in the United States and their relation to Japanese architecture, and (3) biographies of three Nisei architects: George Nakashima, Minoru Yamasaki, and George Matsumoto.

    “ Any detailed account of the architectural history of the World Trade Center must rely on the work of Anthony W. Robins.” — Angus Gillespie, author of Twin Towers: Th e Life of New York City’s World Trade Center THE WORLD TRADE CENTER CLASSICS OF AMERICAN ARCHITECTURE ANTHONY W. ROBINS Originally published in 1987 while the Twin Towers still stood — brash and controversial, a new symbol of the city and the country — this book off ered the fi rst serious con- sideration of the planning and design of the World Trade Center. It benefi ted from interviews with fi gures still on the scene, and archival documents still available for study. Many of those interviewed, and many of the documents, are gone. But even if they remained available today, it would be impossible now to write this book from the same perspective. Too much has happened here. In this, the tenth anniversary year of the disaster, a new World Trade Center is rising on the site. We can fi nally begin to imagine life returning, with thousands of people streaming into the new build- ings to work or conduct business, and thousands more, from all over the world, coming to visit the new memorial. It is only natural, then, that we will fi nd ourselves thinking about what life was like in the original Center. Th is new edition of the book — expanded to include copies of some of the documents upon which the text was based — is off ered as a memory of the World Trade Center as it once was.

  • SUMMIT HOTEL (Now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel), 569-573 Lexington Avenue (Aka 132-166 East 51St Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission May 17. 2005, Designation List 363 LP-2176 SUMMIT HOTEL (now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel), 569-573 Lexington Avenue (aka 132-166 East 51st Street), Manhattan. Built 1959-61; Morris Lapidus, Harle & Liebman, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map, Block 1305, Lot 50. On March 29, 2005 the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Summit Hotel (now Doubletree Metropolitan Hotel) and the related Landmark site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been advertised in accordance with provisions of law. At this time, the owner testified, taking no position on designation. Twelve witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Landmarks Conservancy, Historic Districts Council, Docomomo-US, Friends of the Upper East Side, Modern Architecture Working Group, Landmark West, and the Municipal Art Society. The Commission also received numerous letters and e-mails in support of designation. The hearing was continued on April 21, 2005 (Item No. 4). Three witnesses testified in support of designation, including representatives of the Modern Architecture Working Group and Docomomo-US. At this time, a representative of the owner testified, taking no position. Summary Admired for its unusual shape, color, and stainless steel sign, the Summit Hotel is an important work by Morris Lapidus. Begun in 1959, it was the first hotel built in Manhattan in three decades and the architect’s first hotel in New York City. Lapidus was especially proud of this building and reproduced an image of the Summit on the cover of his autobiography, The Architecture of Joy, published in 1979.

  • Symbolism and the City: from Towers of Power to 'Ground Zero'
    Prairie Perspectives: Geographical Essays (Vol: 15) Symbolism and the city: From towers of power to ‘Ground Zero’ Robert Patrick University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK Canada Amy MacDonald University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB Canada Abstract This paper explores the symbolism of New York City’s World Trade Center (WTC) before and after the devastating attack of September 11, 2001. The many metaphors captured in the built space of the WTC site are interrogated from ‘Ground Zero’ to the symbolic significance of the new ‘Freedom Tower’ now nearing completion (2014). In fulfilling the intended symbolism of American economic power, the WTC towers became pop-culture symbols of New York City, and the Unit- ed States. The WTC towers stood as twin icons of western economic dominance along with ‘Wall Street’ and ‘Dow Jones’ reflecting the American ethos of freedom and opportunity. However, the WTC also imbued negative, albeit unintended, symbolism such as the coldness of modernist architecture, social class disparities across urban America, and global domina- tion. Plans for redeveloping the WTC site predominantly highlight the intended positive symbolic connotations of the for- mer Twin Towers, including freedom and opportunity. This article points to the symbolic significance of urban built form and the potential negative consequences that are associated with iconic structures, including the new Freedom Tower. Keywords: symbolism, iconic architecture, New York City, World Trade Center Introduction tions leading to positive and negative actions of individuals and On September 11, 2001 a terrorist attack of horrific propor- groups.

Cailao Submitted to the Center for Real Estate on July 24, 2009 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Real Estate Development Abstract This thesis will apply the past research and methodologies of Real Options to Tower 2 and Tower 3 of the World Trade Center redevelopment project in New York, NY. The qualitative component of the thesis investigates the history behind the stalled development of Towers 2 and 3 and examines a potential contingency that could have mitigated the market risk.
