  • United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922
    Cover: During World War I, convoys carried almost two million men to Europe. In this 1920 oil painting “A Fast Convoy” by Burnell Poole, the destroyer USS Allen (DD-66) is shown escorting USS Leviathan (SP-1326). Throughout the course of the war, Leviathan transported more than 98,000 troops. Naval History and Heritage Command 1 United States Navy and World War I: 1914–1922 Frank A. Blazich Jr., PhD Naval History and Heritage Command Introduction This document is intended to provide readers with a chronological progression of the activities of the United States Navy and its involvement with World War I as an outside observer, active participant, and victor engaged in the war’s lingering effects in the postwar period. The document is not a comprehensive timeline of every action, policy decision, or ship movement. What is provided is a glimpse into how the 20th century’s first global conflict influenced the Navy and its evolution throughout the conflict and the immediate aftermath. The source base is predominately composed of the published records of the Navy and the primary materials gathered under the supervision of Captain Dudley Knox in the Historical Section in the Office of Naval Records and Library. A thorough chronology remains to be written on the Navy’s actions in regard to World War I. The nationality of all vessels, unless otherwise listed, is the United States. All errors and omissions are solely those of the author.

  • Will a Giant Boob Or Chameleon Inaugurate the High Line's New
    Voon, Claire. “Will a Giant Boob or Chameleon Inaugurate the High Line’s New Public Art Plinth?”, Hyperallergic, January, 2017. [online] [ill.] Will a Giant Boob or Chameleon Inaugurate the High Line’s New Public Art Plinth? Rendering of Lena Henke’s “Ascent of a Woman” (2016), her proposal for the High Line Plinth (architectural rendering by James Corner Field Operations and Diller Scofidio + Renfro, courtesy the City of New York; artwork courtesy the artist) Come next spring, a giant chameleon, a standalone carillon, or a singular, upturned breast may grace the elevated grounds of the High Line. They’re just three of 12 sculptures proposed by 12 artists and vying to inaugurate what will be the industrial park’s first space dedicated specifically to art: the High Line Plinth. If that name sounds familiar, you’re likely thinking of London’s Fourth Plinth, the prominent pedestal in Trafalgar Square that’s currently home to a colossal thumb by David Shrigley. Friends of the High Line drew inspiration directly from that 176-year-old plinth for this endeavor, which is forthcoming in the spring of 2018. The nonprofit conservancy already has an impressive history of promoting culture through High Line Art, which has placed a variety of exhibitions, commissions, and performances all along the park’s tracks, but the new plinth will establish a spot specifically for contemporary art. It will serve the same purpose as its pal across the pond, hosting a series of works by international artists on an 18-month rotating schedule — and yes, you can expect them all to be rather grand in scale, as conspicuous as the ones that have towered over the British square.

  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

  • Prospect Park Primary Source Packet
    PROSPECT PARK PRIMARY SOURCE PACKET Student Name Prospect Park Primary Source Packet INTRODUCTORY READING "Timeline." Park History. Prospect Park Alliance, Web. 28 Jan 2014. ADAPTATION In 1834, the City of Brooklyn was chartered, and during the next 30 years it became the third largest city in the country, following only New York (Manhattan) and Philadelphia. Thousands of European immigrants settled in the growing city and sprawling farms gave way to homes. At the same time public parks were gaining popularity in America. Beginning in 1858, the design team of Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux transformed more than 800 acres of jagged rock into Central Park in Manhattan. It was the first landscaped public park in the United States. Soon after a movement grew in Brooklyn for a park of its own. Leading the effort was James Stranahan, a businessman and civic leader. In the early 1860s, Stranahan argued that a park in Brooklyn "would become a favorite resort for all classes of our community, enabling thousands to enjoy pure air, with healthful exercise, at all seasons of the year…." Calvert Vaux sketched Prospect Park’s present layout for Stranahan. Vaux convinced Olmsted to join the effort, and construction of the park began on July 1, 1866 under their supervision. Olmsted and Vaux’s plan included rolling green meadows, carriage drives with scenic lookouts, waterfalls, springs and a forest. Organized sports gained popularity throughout the first half of the 1900s and the Park continued to host parades and celebrations that drew huge crowds. Parks Commissioner Robert Moses opened the zoo, bandshell and several playgrounds in the 1930s.
