  • Skyscrapers and District Heating, an Inter-Related History 1876-1933
    Skyscrapers and District Heating, an inter-related History 1876-1933. Introduction: The aim of this article is to examine the relationship between a new urban and architectural form, the skyscraper, and an equally new urban infrastructure, district heating, both of witch were born in the north-east United States during the late nineteenth century and then developed in tandem through the 1920s and 1930s. These developments will then be compared with those in Europe, where the context was comparatively conservative as regards such innovations, which virtually never occurred together there. I will argue that, the finest example in Europe of skyscrapers and district heating planned together, at Villeurbanne near Lyons, is shown to be the direct consequence of American influence. Whilst central heating had appeared in the United Kingdom in the late eighteenth and the early nineteenth centuries, district heating, which developed the same concept at an urban scale, was realized in Lockport (on the Erie Canal, in New York State) in the 1880s. In United States were born the two important scientists in the fields of heating and energy, Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) and Benjamin Thompson Rumford (1753-1814). Standard radiators and boilers - heating surfaces which could be connected to central or district heating - were also first patented in the United States in the late 1850s.1 A district heating system produces energy in a boiler plant - steam or high-pressure hot water - with pumps delivering the heated fluid to distant buildings, sometimes a few kilometers away. Heat is therefore used just as in other urban networks, such as those for gas and electricity.

  • Green Spaces Profile for Manhattan Community Board 1 September 2014
    Green Spaces Profile for Manhattan Community Board 1 September 2014 As referenced in the Manhattan Community Board 1 (CB1) District Needs Report for FY 2016, CB1 advocates for a greening strategy for the district that includes green building infrastructure. Overall, this greening strategy should continue the trend of all new and retrofitted buildings, both commercial and residential, are Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rated and/or Energy Star certified. These measures can range from dirty heating oil conversions, white roofs, energy saving systems and other building infrastructure improvements. Projects proposed such as Rebuild by Design’s The Big U and the New York City Economic Development Corporation’s Southern Manhattan Multi-Purpose Levee will certainly help protect and fortify Lower Manhattan from future extreme weather events, but parallel investments in green adjustments and solutions can help minimize the need. In terms of the objective measures of “greenness”, CD1 fares well: the district enjoys a near perfect walkability score, easy access to world-class public transit and green space, and a medium to high rise and high density built environment. Nevertheless, despite the strengths and opportunities that CD1 has enjoyed in terms of greenness, the district still has considerable threats since much of the district lies within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)-designated flood zone. Greater measures must be made to fortify CD1 from flooding. One solution to climate change would be to continue investing in the green construction and retrofitting of commercial, residential, and civic buildings. In light of the district’s accomplishments and challenges, this guide documents the state of green spaces within CD1.

Cummin and Andrew H. Popik Thesis Advisor: James McKellar ABSTRACT There has been a trend in the Manhattan office market toward complete renovation and rehabilitation of existing office buildings while keeping the original use. This is referred to as repositioning because it is more than just maintaining or repairing these buildings. It is a process of redevelopment using a market driven approach, focusing not only on the physical structure of a building but also on intangible considerations of presence, image, and market position. Often this repositioning is based on the creation of specific market oriented strategies to raise the standing of a building in its original market.
