  • Gowanus Gentrified?
    Gowanus Gentrified? Community Responses to Gentrification and Economic Development in the Shadow of the Superfund Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein Senior Thesis for the Urban Studies Program Barnard College, Columbia University Submitted April 18, 2012 Thesis Advisor: Meredith Linn Abstract Gowanus is an industrial neighborhood changing into a gentrified area, but it faces such severe pollution that the EPA designated the Gowanus Canal, which bisects the area, a Superfund site in 2010. The industry still in Gowanus includes a mix of traditional industrial businesses, craft industries, and artists, but they might disappear if developers build luxury condos in the neighborhood. This study looks at the clash between activists over how the community has and will change, focusing on the pro-development Gowanus Canal Community Development Corporation and the preservationist and pro-Superfund Friends and Residents of Greater Gowanus. Many local activists embrace the vision of Gowanus as a place for making things and hope to maintain industry. Even though industry left the neighborhood polluted, most do not connect the two. The Superfund seeks to clean up the neighborhood but it may pave the way for environmental gentrification, which is the pollution cleanup causing gentrification. However, fears of the Superfund harming home prices do not appear to be true; GIS analysis shows that land closest to environmental hazards increased the most in value. Residents also hope to avoid the experiences of other New York neighborhoods, which saw gentrification cause displacement. More than residential displacement, though, activists worry about the culture of Gowanus disappearing and hope to save it. Their remedies such as historic preservation and zoning Gowanus for mixed use may not be effective or viable, though.

  • Brooklyn Began Here …
    Brooklyn began here … The land that became Boerum Hill was part of the town of Breuckelen, one of the six original Dutch towns that made up what is now the borough of Brooklyn. These original towns were, in the order of their incorporation: 1645, Gravesend settle by English Anabaptist leader Lady Deborah Moody under Dutch patent. (The only American colony founded by a woman.) 1646, Breuckelen, after the ancient village of the same name in Holland 1647, Nieuw Amersfoot, became Flatlands 1652, Midwout, became Flatbush 1657, Nieuw Utrecht, after the city of Utrecht, Netherlands 1661, Boswijick, became Bushwick Breuckelen may have been nearly the earliest incorporated town (earlier even than the capital of the Dutch West India colony located across the East River on the tip of the island of the Manhattoe tribe, New Amsterdam, which was incorporated in 1653) but it was not the first settlement. That distinction goes to the village of Gowanus, founded in 1636 when agents of the Dutch West India Company purchased nearly 1,000 acres along and south of what is today called the Gowanus Bay, from Gowane, a leader of the Carnarse Indians. Coincidentally, the Dutch word for bay is gouwee. A fact which serves as the foundation for an argument over how Gowanus got its name. The approximate outline of the original village of Gowanus, Long Island’s oldest European settlement, can be seen as a green box on the composite map below. The Boerum Hill neighborhood has in the past been referred to as North Gowanus - the area north of the village of Gowanus which extended as far north as Gowanus creek.

  • Volcano House Register Volume 2
    Haw VolcanoesNa al Park National Service Park The Volcano House Register, Volume 2 1873-1885 In this volume, on almost every page, there are entries in which a writer merely gives his name, date, times of arrival and departure, and destination. In the other volumes, whenever this occurs, I mention that I omitted such an entry, and give the page number. But because there are so many such entries in this particular volume, it would become tedious both for the transcriber to record and the reader to read every case of such omission; so I am doing it once only, here at the beginning of the document. On the page facing page 1, there is a rough table of contents, listing the page numbers of various maps and signatures of Kalakaua, Louis Pasteur, etc. In addition, there is a poem: Index Some good Some mediocre And much rotten For the Lord's sake Don't write unless You have somethingHawai'i Volcanoes Park To say & can say it. National Park Ser no signature and no date Between 11 and 12 last night Mokuaweoweo started action again. The wind has been from the southward, and the whole day a dense body of smoke has been passing over Kilauea and across Puna, off to sea. Evidently a much greater portion of the crater is in action than in the eruption of August last. Had a heavy thunder shower about dusk with hail and this evening there is considerable lightning. Weather hazy and top of mountain seldom visible. Kilauea quite active but no lava flowing.
