Report: Federal Houses Landmarked Or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999
GREENWICH VILLAGE SOCIETY FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION Making the Case Federal Houses Landmarked or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999-2016 The many surviving Federal houses in Lower Manhattan are a special part of the heritage of New York City. The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation has made the documentation and preservation of these houses an important part of our mission. This report highlights the Society’s mission in action by showing nearly one hundred fifty of these houses in a single document. The Society either proposed the houses in this report for individual landmark designation or for inclusion in historic districts, or both, or has advocated for their designation. Special thanks to Jiageng Zhu for his efforts in creating this report. 32 Dominick Street, built c.1826, landmarked in 2012 Federal houses were built between ca. 1790 to ca. 1835. The style was so named because it was the first American architectural style to emerge after the Revolutionary War. In elevation and plan, Federal Period row houses were quite modest. Characterized by classical proportions and almost planar smoothness, they were ornamented with simple detailing of lintels, dormers, and doorways. These houses were typically of load bearing masonry construction, 2-3 stories high, three bays wide, and had steeply pitched roofs. The brick facades were laid in a Flemish bond which alternated a stretcher and a header in every row. All structures in this report were originally built as Federal style houses, though -

THE FOSSIL Official Publication of The Fossils, Inc., Historians of Amateur Journalism Volume 106, Number 3, Whole Number 344, Glenview, Illinois, April 2010 SOME MIXED NEWS FOR YOU PRESIDENT'S REPORT Guy Miller First some really good news. Membership Chair Martha Shivvers has assured us that, even though a stroke just two weeks after her 95th birthday threatened to limit drastically her activities, she has recovered sufficiently to be able to continue her unmatched service to The Fossils. We rejoice, not only because she would have been most difficult to replace, but more importantly, because she has made such marvelous recovery. I am certain that all of you are elated to receive this news. Another happy event was mine this February when at the behest of former student and long- time friend, Ken Metzgar, I ventured a visit to his home in Tempe, Arizona. Ken made certain that I was in Tucson on February 12 to celebrate with Louise Lincoln her 98th birthday. You will want to know that Louise is comfortable and happy with the care she receives in a beautiful assisted living residence. As a matter of fact her care givers invited Ken and me to share the occasion with a generous slice of Louise's red-ribbon birthday cake. At present Louise is working on another issue of her Kitchen Stove which she produces for members of NAPA. Also Ken arranged for me to visit with AAPA President Mike O'Connor in Fountain Hills where I was Mike's luncheon guest and later had the opportunity of examining his print shop and conversing face-to-face with Dean Rea by way of the internet. -

Wheaton Chairman Interdepartmental Degree Program in Real Estate Development SEP 16 1996 AN ANALYSIS OF THE PLAN FOR THE REVITALIZATION OF LOWER MANHATTAN By John E. Lodge Submitted to the Department of Architecture on August 1, 1996 in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Real Estate Development at the MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY ABSTRACT Most older cities in the United States are looking for ways to revitalize their aging central business districts (CBDs). As urban development patterns become increasingly metropolitan with the growth of 'edge cities' and suburban commercil complexes, cities at the center are faced with structural and locational impediments to growth. New York has implemented a program called the Plan for the Revitalization of Lower Manhattan in an attempt to address the area's lack of competitiveness. This Plan combines zoning changes, tax abatements, energy charge abatements, and historic preservation initiatives in an incentive program designed to spur the redevelopment of existing building stock into both residential units and more modernized office space. -
