Christopher Goodwin and Associates, Inc. 241 E. Fourth Street Suite 100 Frederick, Maryland 21701 FINAL REPORT June 1997 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Historic Context for Department of Defense (DoD) World War H Permanent Construction combines two previous reports: Historic Context for Department of Defense Facilities World War H Permanent Construction (Hirrel et al., draft June 1994) and Methodology for World War H Permanent Construction (Whelan, draft August 1996). This project was designed to meet the following objectives: • To analyze and synthesize historical data on the military's permanent construction program during World War H. • To assist DoD cultural resource managers and other DoD personnel with fulfilling their responsibilities under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHP A) of 1966, as amended. Section 110 of the NHPA requires federal agencies to identity, evaluate, and nominate to the National Register of Historic Places historic properties under their jurisdiction. Section 110 Guidelines, developed by the National Park Service, U.S. Department ofthe Interior, direct federal agencies to establish historic contexts to identifY and evaluate historic properties (53FR 4727-46). • To develop a consistent historic context framework that provides comparative data and background information in a cost-effective manner, which will allow DoD personnel to assess the relative significance of World War II military construction.

  • Birding the Boston Harbor Islands
    Birding the Boston Harbor Islands John Move Introduction Boston Harbor Islands After nearly a decade of lobbying by m Representatives Gerry Studds and Joe Moakley and Senator Edward Keimedy, the Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area was created by an Act of * * Congress in 1996. Unique among sites in the National Parks system, it is managed by a partnership made up of the twelve owners and operators of the thirty islands named in the legislation together with several advocacy groups and the National Park Service (NPS) itself After a five-year process of study and public input, a management plan was recently released that will guide the park as it moves into the new millennium. Of interest to birders and to visitors in general is the recommendation that calls for increased public access to the islands. At the same time, several of the more remote islands, traditionally used by colonial nesting species, are to remain undeveloped. In operation since the early 1970s, the Boston Harbor Islands State Park, now a part of the Boston Harbor Islands National Park Area (the name it now goes by after Native Americans objected to using the phrase “recreation area” to describe islands on which some of their ancestors were imprisoned and died), is co-managed by the Massachusetts Department of Enviromnental Management (DEM) and the Metropolitan District Commission (MDC). Currently, six of the nineteen state-owned islands make up the nucleus of the Area, hosting nearly 125,000 visitors aimually. They are staffed seasonally and are accessible by ferry and water-taxi link from Boston as well as from the North and South Shores.

A log boom defense was placed in the river between the two forts. The fort was garrisoned by 180 men under the command of Captain Titus Salter from 1775-78. The garrison was also responsible for the security of the powder magazine in Portsmouth. The fort was designed by Captain Ezekiel Worthen, who also designed Fort Sullivan and the Clark's Point (Shaw’s Hill) Redoubt on New Castle Island, and who, with the rank of Major, later replaced General Sullivan as the overall commander of the Portsmouth harbor defenses. Peirce's Island was renamed "Isle of Washington" in 1776, in honor of General George Washington, who was then commander of the Army of New England in Cambridge, Massachusetts, during the siege of Boston. The fort was repaired and regarrisoned in 1814-15 during the War of 1812 when British warships blockaded the New England coast. The fort was in ruins by 1850, and was probably not used at all during the Civil War.

  • In Defense of Natural Cement: a Critical Examination of the Evolution of Concrete Technology at Fort Totten, New York Richard
    In Defense of Natural Cement: A Critical Examination of the Evolution of Concrete Technology at Fort Totten, New York Richard M. P. Lowry Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Science in Historic Preservation Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation Columbia University (May 2013) Cover images: Sections of concrete from cores collected at Battery Graham (top), Battery Mahan (middle), and Torpedo Magazine 4 (bottom) ABSTRACT In Defense of Natural Cement: A Critical Examination of the Evolution of Concrete Technology at Fort Totten, New York Richard M. P. Lowry Prof. Norman R. Weiss, advisor There are a number of opportunities for academic research related to the historic concrete fortifications at Fort Totten at Willets Point in Queens, NY. Built by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), whose headquarters was at Willets Point, these structures incorporate three significant fortification periods, including the Third System (1863-1867), the Post-Civil War era (1867-1884) and the Endicott period (1891-1905). These late 19th century structures represent a transformative period in the technological development of concrete which evolved from a simple mortar containing rocks to bulk out the mix, to an interdependent mixture of binder, sand and aggregate. In addition, the first fortifications at Fort Totten were built during the heyday of the natural cement industry and the last fortifications coincided with its demise, as portland cement came to dominate the market. The rivalry between American natural and portland cement manufacturers was fierce, and the biases engendered on both sides persisted long after the natural cement industry collapsed in the early 20th century.
