  • To Download Three Wonder Walks
    Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) Featuring Walking Routes, Collections and Notes by Matthew Jensen Three Wonder Walks (After the High Line) The High Line has proven that you can create a des- tination around the act of walking. The park provides a museum-like setting where plants and flowers are intensely celebrated. Walking on the High Line is part of a memorable adventure for so many visitors to New York City. It is not, however, a place where you can wander: you can go forward and back, enter and exit, sit and stand (off to the side). Almost everything within view is carefully planned and immaculately cultivated. The only exception to that rule is in the Western Rail Yards section, or “W.R.Y.” for short, where two stretch- es of “original” green remain steadfast holdouts. It is here—along rusty tracks running over rotting wooden railroad ties, braced by white marble riprap—where a persistent growth of naturally occurring flora can be found. Wild cherry, various types of apple, tiny junipers, bittersweet, Queen Anne’s lace, goldenrod, mullein, Indian hemp, and dozens of wildflowers, grasses, and mosses have all made a home for them- selves. I believe they have squatters’ rights and should be allowed to stay. Their persistence created a green corridor out of an abandoned railway in the first place. I find the terrain intensely familiar and repre- sentative of the kinds of landscapes that can be found when wandering down footpaths that start where streets and sidewalks end. This guide presents three similarly wild landscapes at the beautiful fringes of New York City: places with big skies, ocean views, abun- dant nature, many footpaths, and colorful histories.

ABSTRACT Today, cemeteries are forgotten places. Once centers of cities and the societies they served, they have been pushed to the outskirts and turned into places of pure storage, devoid of memory. This thesis takes on the additional program of the Potter's Field: a burial place for the poor and unclaimed. Currently in New York the potter's field is located on Hart Island inthe Bronx.

  • Hart Island Frequently Asked Questions - Page 1 of 3
    City of New York Department of Correction HART ISLAND FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - PAGE 1 OF 3 Q. What is the history of Hart Island? New York City purchased Hart Island in 1868 to serve as its Potter’s Field—a place of burial for unknown or indigent people. It is the tenth Potter’s Field in the City’s history. Previous NYC Potter’s Fields were located at the current sites of Washington Square, Bellevue Hospital, Madison Square, the NYC Public Library, Wards Island and Randall’s Island. Q. Are Potter’s Fields common throughout the United States? Yes. A number of jurisdictions set aside public burial sites or “potter’s fields” for individuals who cannot provide for their own burial, who have not been identified, or for those whose next of kin cannot be reached. Q. How many people are buried on Hart Island? Based on burial records, as many as one million people have been buried on Hart Island. Q. Who is in charge of Hart Island and overseeing burials? The Department of Correction is responsible for operating and maintaining NYC’s Potter’s Field. Our designation is set forth in the New York City Administrative Code. Q. Who determines whether someone will be buried on Hart Island? In New York City the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) takes custody of remains pending identification and claim by relatives. The OCME transfers unclaimed remains to the Department of Correction for burial on Hart Island. For additional information, please see the OCME website, www.nyc.gov/ocme. Q.

  • Notice of Proposed Class Action Settlement and Fairness Hearing
    Case 1:14-cv-09533-VSB Document 37 Filed 09/28/15 Page 16 of 16 NOTICE OF PROPOSED CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT AND FAIRNESS HEARING As a result of a proposed settlement agreement (“Agreement”) in a class action entitled Lusero v. The City of New York, family members and their invited guests (henceforth referred to as “Visitors”) can now visit the gravesites of individuals buried on Hart Island. For purposes of the Agreement, “family members” are defined as including parents, step-parents, children (biological or adopted), step-children, spouses, siblings, step-siblings, half-siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, uncles, aunts, nephews, nieces, first cousins, second cousins, legal guardians of deceased individuals buried on Hart Island; wards of deceased guardians buried on Hart Island; and domestic partners of deceased individuals buried on Hart Island, who wish to visit the gravesites of said deceased individuals. The Agreement provides that The City will provide for two round-trips from the ferry dock on City Island in the Bronx to Hart Island on one weekend day per month (generally, alternating Saturdays and Sundays), year round. Each ferry trip will provide for a maximum of approximately 25 Visitors. While certain mementos will be permitted to be left at gravesites, under the terms of the Agreement, the City reserves, and is currently exercising, the right to prohibit all electronic devices on Hart Island. While the Agreement is already being implemented by the City, it has yet to be formally approved by the Court, which approval will make the Agreement fully binding upon the parties to the Agreement. If you are a “family member,” as defined above, and would like to schedule a visit to a gravesite on Hart Island, you may apply either (i) by calling DOC’s Hart Island visit line at 718-546-0911, or (ii) as of August 1, 2015, by visiting DOC’s on-line application portal for Hart Island, at: http://www.nyc.gov/html/doc/html/contact/hart-island-grave-visit-request.shtml.

Copyrighted, 1906, BY THE Merchants' Association OF New York. ^ PREFATORY. AST year more than, nine thousand out-of- town buyers registered at the offices of The Merchants' Association of New York. A great many of these asked information as to hotels, theatres, restaurants, ferries, railroad offices, street-car routes, elevated railroads, libraries, public buildings, pleasure resorts, short excursions, etc. The eleven hundred resident members of the Asso- ciation ask many questions as to the location of public offices, hack-rates, distances, automobile sta- tions and similar subjects. It has been found that a hand-book containing in- formation of the kind indicated, in a form convenient for ready-reference, will not only be a great con- venience for visiting merchants, but also in many respects for residents. This pocket-guide is pub- lished in response to that demand. It will be supplied without charge to visiting mer- chants registering at the offices of the Association; and a few free copies are at the disposal of each resident member. Members who desire a large quantity for distribu- tion to their customers will be supplied at about the cost price. CONTENTS. PAGE Ferries, Manhattan: I. Points Reached by Perries 1 II.

Traditional volunteerism often focuses on intention - “doing good,” “giving back.” But leaving We are so pleased to present to you the 2019 Volunteers Count report service in the frame of “nice” prevents us from looking at the systemic from NYC Service.
