    ANNUAL REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENTOF PARKS BOROUGH OF THE BRONX CITY OF NEW YORK JOSEPH P. HENNESSY, Commissioner HERALD SQUARE PRESS NEW YORK DEPARTMENT OF PARKS BOROUGH OF 'I'HE BRONX January 30, 1922. Hon. John F. Hylan, Mayor, City of New York. Sir : I submit herewith annual report of the Department of Parks, Borough of The Bronx, for 1921. Respect fully, ANNUAL REPORT-1921 In submitting to your Honor the report of the operations of this depart- ment for 1921, the last year of the first term of your administration, it will . not be out of place to review or refer briefly to some of the most important things accomplished by this department, or that this department was asso- ciated with during the past 4 years. The very first problem presented involved matters connected with the appropriation for temporary use to the Navy Department of 225 acres in Pelham Bay Park for a Naval Station for war purposes, in addition to the 235 acres for which a permit was given late in 1917. A total of 481 one- story buildings of various kinds were erected during 1918, equipped with heating and lighting systems. This camp contained at one time as many as 20,000 men, who came and went constantly. AH roads leading to the camp were park roads and in view of the heavy trucking had to be constantly under inspection and repair. The Navy De- partment took over the pedestrian walk from City Island Bridge to City Island Road, but constructed another cement walk 12 feet wide and 5,500 feet long, at the request of this department, at an expenditure of $20,000.

  • Ancestry of George W. Bush Compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner
    Ancestry of George W. Bush (b. 1946) Page 1 of 150 Ancestry of George W. Bush compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner The following material on the immediate ancestry of George W. Bush was initially compiled from two sources: The ancestry of his father, President George Bush, as printed in Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, First Authoritative Edition [Santa Clarita, Cal.: Boyer, 1995], pp. 121-130. The ancestry of his mother, Barbara Bush, based on the unpublished work of Michael E. Pollock, [email protected]. The contribution of the undersigned consists mostly in collating and renumbering the material cited above, adding considerable information from the decennial censuses and elsewhere, and HTML-izing the results. The relationships to other persons (see the NOTES section below) are intended to be illustrative rather than exhaustive, and are taken mostly from Mr. Roberts' Notable Kin and Ancestors of American Presidents books, with extensions, where appropriate, from John Young's American Reference Genealogy and from my own, generally unpublished, research. This page can be found at two places on the World Wide Web, first at http://hometown.aol.com/wreitwiesn/candidates2000/bush.html and again at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~addams/presidential/bush.html.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Howard Schachman, dated April 26, 2007. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

Photos by SARAH ANDERSON, RICK DEWITT, BARBARA DOLENSEK, ANN-MARIE GOONAN, MARK NANI and MIKE RAUH City Island survived Hurricane Sandy, which roared into the northeast on Oct. 29, 2012, with wind gusts over 80 miles per hour (see story on page 3). Sandy’s tidal surge of over eight feet caused much of the damage, flooding the parking lots of restaurants like Sea Shore (top photos) and yacht clubs like the Stuyvesant on Centre Street (bottom photos). The sustained winds knocked down familiar Island sights like the neon lobster above the Lobster House (second row of photos) and many trees causing power failures and fires like the one that destroyed Tony’s Pier Restaurant on the end of City Island Avenue (third row photos). We made it to the morning after with a majestic rainbow over Orchard Beach signifying the end of Sandy. As always, City Islanders exhibited resilience and community spirit by helping neighbors pump water out of their basements, providing power and shelter to those who went as long as four days without it, and cleaning up in time to welcome in the holiday season with the tree lighting in Hawkins Park on Nov. 24 (middle photo) and the menorah lighting on Dec. 8. The staff of The Island Current wishes everyone a serene, safe and storm-free holiday.
