A Sign Project Mapping Memories of Community Life Head A sign project mapping memories of community life Geismar Joan H. Railing • PHOTO: • MOUNT: Yard Back Location: PROJECT DESCRIPTION Your Guide to the Lower East Side presents the experienc- es of past and present Lower East Siders on twenty-eight signs at six separate sidewalk locations. With photographs and text in five languages, these “place markers” weave personal stories and cher- ished memories directly into the landscape, often right where the stories took place. This public history project celebrates people, places, and community life on the Lower East Side. The signs reveal the rich and diverse layers of human experience that make the neighborhood so distinctive. They transform the participants’ stories of struggle and achievement into a legacy for all who pass by. The catalog showcases all of the signs and keys their locations to the map on the following page. The signs are a project of Place Matters, an initiative of City Lore and the Municipal Art Society to promote and protect places that con- nect us to the past, sustain community and cultural traditions, and maintain the distinctive character of neighborhoods throughout the city. Place Matters believes that this kind of “place marking” draws attention to our surroundings, and encourages people to recognize, protect, and care for the places that matter to them. We welcome inquiries about how to do similar projects in other places. Go to our A project of website at www.placematters.net to learn more about places on the Lower East Side and all around the city. Many thanks to the individuals and organizations who shared their City Lore, Inc.® stories and photographs, and to the E.H.A. Foundation, the Lily 72 East First St. New York, NY 0003 Auchincloss Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts 22-529-955 x 304 for funding Your Guide to the Lower East Side.

  • East Village/Lower East Side Manhattan the Historic Districts Council Is New York’S Citywide Advocate for Historic Buildings and Neighborhoods
    A GUIDE TO HISTORIC NEW YORK CITY NEIGHBORHOODS EAST VILLAGE/LOWER EAST SIDE ManhaTTan The Historic Districts Council is New York’s citywide advocate for historic buildings and neighborhoods. The Six to Celebrate program annually identifies six historic New York City neighborhoods that merit preservation as priorities for HDC’s advocacy and consultation over a yearlong period. The six, chosen from applications submitted by community organizations, are selected on the basis of the architectural and historic merit of the area, the level of threat to the neighborhood, the strength and willingness of the local advocates, and the potential for HDC’s preservation support to be meaningful. HDC works with these neighborhood partners to set and reach pres- ervation goals through strategic planning, advocacy, outreach, programs and publicity. The core belief of the Historic Districts Council is that preservation and enhancement of New York City’s historic resources—its neighborhoods, buildings, parks and public spaces—are central to the continued success of the city. The Historic Districts Council works to ensure the preservation of these resources and uphold the New York City Landmarks Law and to further the preservation ethic. This mission is accomplished through ongoing programs of assistance to more than 500 community and neighborhood groups and through public-policy initiatives, publications, educational outreach and sponsorship of community events. Six to Celebrate is generously supported by The New York Community Trust. Additional support for Six to Celebrate is provided by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and by public funds from the New York City Depart- ment of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and New York City Councilmembers Margaret Chin, Inez Dickens, Daniel Garodnick, Vincent Gentile, Sara Gonzalez, Stephen Levin and Rosie Mendez.

Hochberg Well, I hope that you have been able to keep warm in our second bizarre this winter in a row. As I enter the last quarter of my Presidency, I want to take a moment to speak to you about our future. I’ve mentioned several times that a major reason we successfully moved our shul to our beautiful home in Voorhees was the foresight and planning of our past leadership. Their hard work and perseverance has given us a gift that we will enjoy for many, many years to come. With that in mind, our current leadership believes that we can give a similar gift to Beth El’s next generation. Specifically, I mean the establishment of the Endowment for the Future (please see the ad further on page 9 in the Beth El News). There is a lot of confusion about what an endowment is and what it is not, so let me take a moment to provide you with a high- level view. In its strictest sense, the establishment of an endowment is a form of fundraising.
