New York, New York February 2009 BROADWAY TRIANGLE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT, WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN, NEW YORK PHASE IA CULTURAL RESOURCE ASSESSMENT Prepared For: New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development New York, New York Prepared By: Tina Fortugno, RPA Zachary J. Davis, RPA Deborah Van Steen The Louis Berger Group, Inc. New York, New York February 2009 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) is seeking discretionary actions in order to facilitate the redevelopment of a nine-block area known as Broadway Triangle, located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The Proposed Action includes zoning map amendments to generally rezone the existing M1-2 Manufacturing District to Residential and Commercial Districts; zoning text amendments to establish Inclusionary Housing in the proposed R6A and R7A zoning districts; the disposition of City-owned properties; Urban Development Action Area Projects designation; the modification of an Urban Renewal Plan; and City Acquisition through eminent domain. The Project Area encompasses approximately 31 acres and is generally bounded by Flushing Avenue to the south, Throop Avenue to the east, Lynch Street to the north, and Union Avenue, Walton Street, and Harrison Avenue to the west. As part of this action, the HPD is undertaking an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed Broadway Triangle Redevelopment Project. Consideration for cultural resources, including both archaeological and historic architectural resources, must be undertaken as part of the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) process. -

THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB
February 2009 THE GADSDEN Volume 229 GAB President’s Message 2 Birthdays/Community News 4 Activities & Festivities 6-7 The Chaplain’s Corner 11 Philip Simmons: A Consummate Artist and his Reflections Barbara Tuck As we enter Black History month, with the awe-inspiring inauguration of our first African- American president fresh in our minds, it’s fitting to celebrate living black history in the person of Philip Simmons who now resides among us here at BG. Powerful in his art and character, Simmons is the epitome of someone who’s lived humbly yet has achieved the summit of success in his chosen art—designing and creating beautiful pieces of ornamental ironwork. Eight years old, with fifty cents in his pocket, Philip left his grandparents’ home on Daniel Is- land and took the ferry to Charleston to live with his mother and to attend the first class at Buist School. Lured by the click-click-click of the blacksmith shop at the end of Calhoun Street, which had been owned by a former slave, Simmons couldn’t wait to start a promised apprenticeship at age 13. Once he started, he kept alive the tradition of African-American blacksmiths for the next 80 years. Simmons left horseshoes behind and created elaborate designs in ironwork that now adorn and char- acterize Charleston’s beautiful homes and buildings. Simmons reflected on black history in a bench he de- signed in a collaborative effort to commemorate Rosa Parks’ defiance on a Montgomery bus. The size of a bus seat for two, this simple bench made an awesome statement—with the outline of a bus and the year 1955 on its back. -

DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M. Wolf skill); "Not One to Stay at Home: The Papers of Lou Henry Hoover" (Dale C. -

CITIZENS COMMITTEE for NEW YORK CITY 2020 Annual Report
CITIZENS COMMITTEE FOR NEW YORK CITY 2020 Annual Report CitizensNYC We are ALL IN for New York City #Allin4NYC 30 East 125th Street, #189 | 212 989 0909 | citizensnyc.org New York, NY 10035 A LETTER FROM OUR CEO On March 16, 2020 I had the profound privilege of 0 taking on the role of CEO at CitizensNYC. In a year like no other I’ve seen how the citizens of this city continue to fill in the gaps, often where federal and state institutions fall short. We are a village of small business owners, activists, artists, and community gatekeepers improving New York City neighborhoods, and in this moment of crisis we believe we as a city must trust grassroots leaders, support them, and give them the right platforms to thrive. 2 Think about what access to food and water— necessities that many of us take for granted, even in a pandemic—looks like in a community that was already struggling before COVID-19 invaded our neighborhoods. In response, CitizensNYC quickly mobilized its resources to focus on the immediate needs of struggling New Yorkers. We established two unrestricted grant programs focusing on the city’s hardest-hit communities, with an emphasis on keeping 0 struggling businesses afloat, and meeting urgent community needs such as access to food, water, and financial resources. As one of the nation’s oldest micro-funding organizations, CitizensNYC provides support to community leaders on the front lines of change in their own neighborhoods. But we’re so much more than grantmakers. Most importantly, we are a communications platform for those whose voices are 2 often drowned out—or who never got a chance to speak at all.
