We thank them for its use here. The Dunbar Apartments, named after the famous black poet of the turn of the cen­ tury, Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872-1906), occupies the entire block bounded by 149th and 150th Streets and Seventh and Eighth Avenues in Harlem. It was the first large co­ operative built for blacks and was Manhattan's earliest large garden apartment complex. Matthew Henson's residence was located at 246 W. 150th Street in this complex. The complex consists of six independent u-shaped buildings, containing 511 apart­ ments, and is clustered around a large interior garden court. Eight arched entranceways lead into the court and to public staircases. With its lawns, shrubs and trees, the gar­ den court provides a quiet, green oasis removed from the traffic and noise of the surroun< ing streets. rn rn Architecturally, the dominant note is one of simplicity. The cold monotony of man later housing projects has been successfully avoided by breaking up the massive wall sur­ faces. The heights of the buildings vary from five to six stories with alternately project­ ed and recessed adjoining units and a variety of window alignments and sizes. The warm tones of the Holland vari-iron balconies and window guards and architectural terra cotta at the roof level complete the decorative scheme. The Dunbar Apartments complex was acclaimed on all sides as a model of what hous­ ing developments should be. The architectural excellence of the project was immediate ly recognized with the award in 1927 of First Prize for walk-up apartments by the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects to Andrew J. Thomas, designer of z the complex. These bold planning concepts served as inspiration and model for later state and federal housing programs. Construction was begun in October, 1926 and com­ pleted in February, 1928. A list of tenants in the Dunbar reads like a Black "Who's Who:" Contee Cullen, poet; W. E. B. Du Bois, editor; A. Philip Randolph of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters; Paul Robeson, actor; Bill (Bojangles) Robinson, dancer; and Matthew A. Henson, were all Dunbar residents, to name only a few of its notable occupants. Henson, who lived at the Dunbar from 1929 until his death in 1955, is memoralized by a tablet at the Seventh Avenue entrance, dedicated April 6, 1970. Because of the numerous famous black residents - and Matthew Henson in particular - who inhabited the Dunbar Apart­ ments, the entire complex should be nominated for national commemoration. ***The Consulting Committee determined that Apartment 3F alone be con­ sidered the landmark.

As the trail blazer of an expedition team that was commanded by a white lieutenant, Robert E. Peary, and included four Eskimos, Henson was the first known man to reach the historic point of that isolated frontier. Henson was born on a farm in Charles County, Maryland, in 1866. There are two different accounts of his early childhood. In his autobiography, A Negro Explorer at the North Pole, published in 1912, he states that his parents moved to Washington, D. C. soon after he was born and that his mother died when he was seven. His uncle sent him to school in the District for several years and after that he went to sea from the port in Baltimore at age twelve, sailing around the world for several years before meeting Peary. However, Henson's biographers, Bradley Robinson, author of Dark Companion, and Floyd Miller, author of Ahdoolo, with whom he collaborated, give a different ac­ count. In these versions Henson reportedly states that his mother died when he was two and that his father remarried but also died when Henson was eight. Cruelly abused and whipped by his stepmother, young Matt ran away to Washington, D. C., where he met a black woman who took him in and put him to work as a diswasher in her restaurant. He did not have time for schooling and after awhile he made his way to Baltimore where he procured a job as a cabin's attendant aboard the merchant ship Katie Hines. It was commanded by Captain Childs who was very interested in the young boy's education and taught him during daily lessons. After Childs' death, when Henson was eighteen, the young man left the ship. For a year after his departure from the Katie Hines, Henson took a variety of jobs along the east coast until he returned to D. C. in 1885. In 1887, while working as a stock clerk in Steinmetz Haberdashery, he met Lieutenant Robert E. Peary who came in to get a sun helmet. The owner of the store recommended Henson as a valet for the ex­ plorer's trip to Nicaragua to survey a canal route. Soon Peary found the young black man's services to be more valuable than that of a servant. Because of his experiences with the sea and his own natural ability as an explorer, Henson was a great asset on the trip, especially in the hacking and charting of a path through the swamps and jungles of the Caribbean region. Because of the ability and resourcefulness that he displayed on this trip with Peary, Henson accompanied the commander on all future expeditions. Although Peary had Fauset, Arthur Huff.

The studio is organized through two principal means: research and analysis, and an architectural proposal. It operates as a laboratory in which to explore new possibilities for urban living along the Harlem River waterfront in the Bronx. Throughout the term, each student will examine the significance of public housing—both past and present—as exists in New York City and abroad, and through team projects, speculate on the rich potential for contemporary urban housing types. The first part of the studio is structured around developing a body of research and an understanding of housing in New York Cit y. Each studio will be introduced to housing typologies through two specific assignments. The first will focus on site and infrastructures using a cross section of the City, from Manhattan to the Bronx, and the second will examine housing units, building programs and systems through a precedent study. The final project will consist of designing high-density mixed-use housing and public space with community amenities.
