GORHAM BUILDING, 390 Fifth Avenue, Aka 386-390 Fifth Avenue and 2-6 West 36Th Street, Manhattan
Landmarks Preservation Commission December 15, 1998, Designation List 300 LP-2027 GORHAM BUILDING, 390 Fifth Avenue, aka 386-390 Fifth Avenue and 2-6 West 36th Street, Manhattan. Built 1904-1906; architect Stanford White of McKim, Mead and White. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 837, Lot 48. On September 15, 1998, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Gorham Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Seven witnesses representing Manhattan Community Board 5, the Murray Hill Association, the New York Landmarks Conservancy, the Beaux Arts Alliance, the Society for the Architecture of the City, the Municipal Art Society, and the Historic Districts Council spoke in favor of designation. The owner of the building submitted a letter asking that the hearing be adjourned to another date. The hearing was closed with the proviso that it could be reopened at a later date if the owner wished to testify. The owner subsequently declined to do so. There were no speakers in opposition to this designation. The Commission also has received a letter in support of the designation from a local resident. Summary This elegant commercial building, constructed in 1904-05 for the Gorham Manufacturing Company, contained its wholesale and retail showrooms, offices, and workshops. Designed by Stanford White of the prominent architectural firm of McKim, Mead & White, the eight-story building is an adaptation of an early Florentine Renaissance sty le palazzo incorporating a two-story arcade, a four-story mid-section, and a two-story loggia. -

January 1904
tlbe VOL XV. JANUARY, 1904. NO. 1. THE WAREHOUSE AND THE FACTORY IN ARCHITECTURE. is a warehouse? When the present writer was a V V student in Germany, a comrade of his one of those poly- glot Poles, who were present in every poly technical school, art school or university course on the continent of Europe a man who spoke every language in use among his contemporaries asked one day what was the English word for "such a building as that." The word warehouse being furnished and explained to him, he expressed the greatest delight, finding sufficient reasons for the belief that no other modern language of Europe possessed an equivalent term. Probably that is true, for as far as contemporary evidence goes no language has the equivalent term of any word in any other lan- guage. Translation is falsification (and that phrase comes closer than most translations do to their originals, to the ancient saw: Traduttorc, Traditore). What is called the "translation" of a foreign author implies, or should imply, the restating of that author's thoughts in such terms as may express them aright. Beyond the simple every day words "wet" and "dry," "cold" and "hot," there are no and even those words be found to be interlingual synonyms ; may used in a larger or a narrower sense as you go from one tongue to another. But the warehouse, as the great cities of America know it, we may take to be a building which is devoted to industrial purposes, involving the safe keeping of a large quantity of goods. -

New York City's Garment Industry
New York City’s Garment Industry: The Tired, Poor, and Forgotten Masses by Wendy C. Potter, 2017 CTI Fellow David W. Butler High School This curriculum unit is recommended for: Apparel and Textile Production I Apparel and Textile Production II Keywords: New York City Garment District, fashion industry, immigration, Ellis Island, Statue of Liberty, fashion, sweatshops, textile industry, Chinatown, immigrant Teaching Standards: See Appendix 1 for teaching standards addressed in this unit. Synopsis: This curriculum focuses on the valuable contributions of immigrants to the garment industry, with special attention given to immigration in New York City. The great immigration period of 1840-1940 shaped the landscape of New York City. As the city continued to grow because of immigration, the garment industry of New York City was established. Dependent on the skills of various groups of people, the garment industry of New York City is now considered a “fashion capital” of the world. Although sweatshops and child labor are an issue of the past in New York City, there remains an immigrant workforce that is marginalized. The glamour of fashion overshadows immigrant contributions. Through creative and hands-on activities, students will learn to memorialize and celebrate the contributions of immigration to the garment industry. With memorials, monuments, and architecture as touchstones, this unit exposes untold history of New York City’s garment industry. While natives of New York City may be aware of this concept, it is important that non-natives have a realistic view of New York City’s garment industry, rather than the often shared glamorous one. I plan to teach this unit during the coming year to 120 9th-12th grade students in Apparel and Textile Production I and II classes. -
