  • BOWERY BANK of NEW YORK BUILDING, 124 Bowery (Aka 124-126 Bowery, 230 Grand Street), Manhattan Built: 1900-02; Architect(S): York & Sawyer
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 26, 2012, Designation List 457 LP-2518 BOWERY BANK OF NEW YORK BUILDING, 124 Bowery (aka 124-126 Bowery, 230 Grand Street), Manhattan Built: 1900-02; architect(s): York & Sawyer Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 470, Lot 64 On May 15, 2012, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Bowery Bank of New York Building and the proposed designation of the Landmark Site (Item No. 2). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with provisions of law. Four people testified in favor of designation, including representatives of City Councilmember Margaret Chin, the Bowery Alliance of Neighbors, the Historic Districts Council, and the Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in American. The Commission has also received a letter from the owner in opposition to designation. Summary Completed in 1902, the Bowery Bank of New York is the earliest surviving building by the architectural firm of York & Sawyer in New York City. Located at the northwest corner of the Bowery and Grand Street, it is flanked on both sides by the former Bowery Savings Bank, a designated Landmark that was constructed during the years when both York and Sawyer were employed by the building’s architect, McKim Mead & White. While the neighboring facades are distinguished by massive pediments and Corinthian columns that suggest an ancient Roman temple, the straightforward monumentality of the Bowery Bank expressed its function as a modern place of work. The New York Daily Tribune praised the building when it opened, saying it “ranks with the best of our modern New York banks.” Edward P.

  • The Landmark Collection Cipriani Event Venues New York City Harry’S Bar 1931
    The Landmark Collection Cipriani Event Venues New York City Harry’s Bar 1931 Harry Pickering It all started in 1931 when a long-sought dream became reality and Giuseppe Cipriani opened the doors of Harry’s Bar. In a discreet stone building perched along a canal just off Piazza San Marco in Venice, he created a timeless and impeccably appointed establishment. His concept was to serve others as you would want to be served yourself. His vision of simple luxury came to touch the souls of people all over the world. Arrigo Cipriani Giuseppe Cipriani Sr. & Ernest Hemingway Through the decades, the Cipriani experience is renewed by successive generations of artists and composers, actors and socialites, and great human beings who define each age. Cipriani Landmark Collection SERVICE There is soul, and there are things. Imagine a world made up only of objects, A world of idle tools, A restaurant of nothing but tables and chairs, A large empty theater, or a deserted plaza in summer. They cry out for the service of man, The service to give them life. We call on man to display his splendid capabilities. And We observe with undivided attention, Because The little nuances in the quality of his service Give a flawless measure of his mind, They tell us frankly what his soul is worth, Because, To serve is first to love. Arrigo Cipriani “PURE. use only the finest, purest ingredients.” “FREEDOM. the availability of options with no imposition.” Cipriani 25 Broadway 25 Broadway, New York, NY 10004 The Cunard Building, designed by architect Benjamin Wistar Morris and completed in 1921, is an Italian neo-Renaissance inspired masterpiece, with 65 foot high ceilings, soaring marble columns and magnificent inlaid floors.

Built: 1922-24; architect, Clarence W. Brazer. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 202, Lot 18 in part consisting of the land underneath the 1922-24 building. On March 22, 2011, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Citizens Savings Bank and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Four people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Historic Districts Council, Bowery Alliance of Neighbors, and New York Landmarks Conservancy. Summary The monumental Beaux-Arts style building at the southwest corner of the Bowery and Canal Street was designed in 1922 by the respected architect Clarence W. Brazer (1880-1956) for the Citizens Savings Bank and completed in 1924. Chartered by the State of New York in 1860 to provide banking services to the small depositor, the Citizens Savings Bank moved to this location in 1862. The bank’s business increased throughout the 19th century and by the 1920s bank officials determined that a larger building was required. During a two year period, construction took place “under, around and over the existing building”1 to avoid disrupting daily operations of the bank. The Citizens Savings Bank is a fine example of the Beaux-Arts style bank building of the late 19th and early 20th century.

  • (Former) Germania Bank Building, 190 Bowery (Aka 1-3 Spring Street), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission March 29, 2005, Designation List 360 LP-2162 (Former) Germania Bank Building, 190 Bowery (aka 1-3 Spring Street), Manhattan. Built 1898-99; Robert Maynicke, architect; Marc Eidlitz and Son, builders. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 492, Lot 38. On October 19, 2004, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the (Former) Germania Bank Building (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Four people spoke in support of designation, including representatives of Assemblyman Sheldon Silver, the Historic Districts Council, Place Matters, and the Municipal Arts Society. Three people – the owners and their representative – spoke in opposition to designation. Summary The former Germania Bank building is an impressive Beaux Arts-style structure prominently located on the northwest corner of the Bowery and Spring Street. Built in 1898-99 to the designs of architect Robert Maynicke, it was the third home of the Germania Bank, which was established in 1869 by a group of local businessmen of German extraction. By 1840, more than 24,000 German immigrants and their descendents were living in New York City. Their numbers increased dramatically over the next two decades, resulting in the development of the area along and to the east of the Bowery above Division Street as a German neighborhood called Kleindeutschland, or Little Germany. The neighborhood became the major German-American center in the United States during the second half of the nineteenth century. German immigrants contributed greatly to New York City by establishing churches, synagogues, and other cultural organizations, as well as creating their own banking, savings, and loan institutions, such as the Germania Bank.

  • The Mutual Savings Bank Crisis
    Chapter 6 TheThe MutualMutual SavingsSavings BankBank CrisisCrisis Introduction The first major crisis the FDIC had to confront in the 1980s was the threatened insol- vency of a large number of mutual savings banks (MSBs). Historically, state laws had re- stricted these thrift institutions to investing in long-term, fixed-rate assets; and traditionally, the majority of MSB liabilities were in passbook savings accounts paying a low rate of in- terest. Until the 1970s, this manner of operating had enabled mutual savings banks to pros- per throughout most of their history. However, in the 1970s the combined forces of rising interest rates, increased competition for deposits, and legal restrictions on diversifying the asset side of the balance sheet quickly overwhelmed many thrift institutions. During the first three years of the 1980s the mutual savings bank industry sustained operating losses of nearly $3.3 billion, an amount equivalent to more than 28 percent of the industrys general reserves at year-end 1980. Losses at some individual MSBs were even higher, and these in- stitutions experienced a rapid depletion of capital. This chapter describes the relatively unique development and history of mutual savings banks in the United States and the causes of the crisis that peaked in the early 1980s; it also discusses the regulatory and congres- sional responses to the problem.
