Kroessler John Jay College of Criminal Justice, CUNY Published in Journal of Planning History: 1-22 (2016) 2 The Limits of Liberal Planning The Lindsay Administration’s Failed Plan to Control Development on Staten Island Abstract: Staten Island grew rapidly after the Verrazano Narrows Bridge opened in 1964. Mayor John Lindsay introduced a plan to control and guide development there, and encouraged planned unit development. The Rouse Company, then building Columbia, Maryland, was contracted to plan new communities for the southern third of Staten Island to more than double the borough’s population. State Senator John Marchi introduced legislation for the South Richmond Development Corporation in 1971. The plan called for the city to use eminent domain to buy property and transfer it to the Rouse Company, which would also construct residential towers on landfill in Raritan Bay. Behind the banner of private property rights, the Conservative Party led opposition to the proposal, and their influence over elected officials on Staten Island led to the legislation’s defeat in Albany.

  • Salvation in a Grain of Sand O
    SALVATIO N IN A GRAIN OF SAND RECKONING WITH THE OCEAN’S FURY CAME EARLY TO A FAMOUS HOUSE ON LONG ISLAND. BY MAC GRISWOLD N THE EAST END OF LONG ISLAND, O in the Hamptons, fabled or distinguished houses, including some by Norman Jaffe, the architect famed for using the area’s vernacu- lar language of potato barn and saltbox to create modernist masterpieces, are bulldozed at an ever increasing rate or disfigured by hair-raisingly inappropriate additions. Stephen and Sandy Perl- binder’s 1969 Jaffe house in Sagaponack is still standing after almost half a century but has been raised like a phoenix from disaster after disaster. In 1970, Architectural Record named it a “Record House,” igniting Jaffe’s career. Seen from the nearest road, now as then, its boxy profile stands distantly against a blank horizon. Beyond lies the Atlantic. The intervening 27 acres of cornfield, pond, meadow, and dunes are the inspired work of the landscape architect Christopher LaGuardia, ASLA, who has worked on this landscape since 1998, when two fierce winter nor’easters chewed out the then-legal beach bulkhead and the dune that the house originally stood on in less than 24 hours. In 2013, ASLA recognized LaGuardia’s work with the coveted Award of Excellence for residential design.

  • INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEW the Reminiscences of Diana Goldstein © 2003 New York Preservation Archive Project
    INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEW The Reminiscences of Diana Goldstein © 2003 New York Preservation Archive Project PREFACE The following oral history is the result of a recorded interview with Diana Goldstein conducted by Interviewer Anthony C. Wood on October 25, 2003. This interview is part of the New York Preservation Archive’s Project’s collection of individual oral history interviews. The reader is asked to bear in mind that s/he is reading a verbatim transcript of the spoken word, rather than written prose. The views expressed in this oral history interview do not necessarily reflect the views of the New York Preservation Archive Project. Architect Diana Goldstein (formerly Diana Kirsch) was one of the founders of the Action Group for Better Architecture in New York (AGBANY), a group of architects opposed to the destruction of Penn Station. The group held a picket-line protest in front of the station in August 1962 and lobbied city officials over the following year to try to thwart the demolition and raise awareness of the need for legal protections for historic landmarks. In this 2003 interview, Goldstein discusses the inception of AGBANY. Much of the interview consists of a conversation between Goldstein, AGBANY member Joan Gruzen, and artist Mon Levinson, as they recount their memories of the people and events surrounding the protest, prompted by photos of the picketers and a comprehensive listing of approximately three hundred individuals identified by NYPAP as having been involved in AGBANY. The interview was conducted by NYPAP president Anthony C. Wood in October 2003, three days before NYPAP held a program featuring many veterans of the Penn Station protests to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the demolition.

    Bunshaft House Threatened There are buildings we simply cannot afford to lose, and the Gordon and Nina Bunshaft House in East Hampton, NY, 1961–1962, is one of them. The Town of East Hampton would commit a grave error if it did not step in immediately to forestall impending demoli- tion by its new owner Donald Maharam who recently purchased the house from Martha Stewart. Maharam claims that Stewart sold him the house in a state of disrepair and he has no choice but to demolish it. The supreme irony here is that Maharam is a member of a family whose business, Maharam Textiles, produces many products of mid-century Modern design; the company’s “Textiles of the Twentieth Century” collection features designs by contemporaries of Bunshaft such as Charles and Ray Eames, Alexander Girard, and Verner Panton. (Editor‘s Note: Panton’s work is currently on display at the AXA Gallery in New York City—see “Exhibits” section.) As recently as 2000, the Eames Office partnered with Maharam Textiles to create a line of fabrics based on the Bunshaft House, 1961-1962, designs of the Eames brothers. in its current condition. This all makes it difficult to understand why Mr. Maharam would (photo: Caroline Rob Zaleski) not restore the Bunshaft House, a masterpiece of mid-century Modernist design, and become an instant hero instead of a villain. The Nina and Gordon Bunshaft house is one of the great Modern houses in the Hamptons. It faces Georgica Pond and was designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. The architect is well know for individual New York City landmarks such as Lever House, 1952; the Manufacturers’ Company Fifth Avenue Branch, 1954; and the Pepsi Cola Company Headquarters, 1960; as well cont’d on p.

The Long Island, New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) is the local component of the national AIA, a professional organization for architects. Among the many activities the organization is involved with each year is the ARCHI Awards, a program initiated to provide professional and public recognition of projects built on Long Island as well as projects designed by Long Island architects, but built elsewhere. The program was established by the Long Island Association of Commerce and Industry in 1965, at which time submissions were requested from owners rather than architects. In 1967, the Long Island Chapter of the American Institute of Architects began its involvement in the program. As the criteria for submissions improved, architects were motivated to submit entries. The awards gained prominence and the Long Island community began to recognize and understand the impact of quality architecture on their environment. From the inception of the program up until the present time, hundreds of projects—and the architects who designed them—have been honored with ARCHI awards. The ―ARCHI‖ was designed specifically for the 1970 Annual Long Island Association Architectural Awards Program.

  • REAL ESTATE Laguardia Design: Apprentice Turned Master
    REAL ESTATE REAL REALTY LaGuardia Design: Apprentice Turned Master JULY 25, 2018BY | NICOLE TEITLER LaGuardia Design is one of the most celebrated landscape architecture organizations in the country — and it is based in the Hamptons. Real Realty caught up with founder, Chris LaGuardia, on his firm and how winning the most prestigious national award for landscape architecture is affecting its future. You founded the firm in 1992. Tell us about its beginnings. I worked for Norman Jaffe for about 10 years, up until his death, and then decided to open my own business, which was a mix of architectural and landscape projects. Eventually I came to focus more on landscape as I found it to be a better fit for me. When did you partner with Ian Hanbach and Dan Thorp and why? LaGuardia Design started out in my house, and after a few years, we eventually moved to a Water Mill office location. My wife, Jane began working full time and we had one drafting assistant. We eventually hired two bright young college graduates who, after about 10 years, would become partners in the firm. The partnership allowed Jane and I to expand the company with more employees and create a more efficient division of labor within the office. We still hire directly out of college. Cornell, Syracuse and Rutgers are good feeds for us. What makes your firm so successful? The success of LaGuardia Design is deeply rooted in a very strong design philosophy based on the tenants of Modernism and ecological conservation. We also hold a firm belief that the quality of our service and its professionalism is very appreciated by our clients and professionals that we collaborate with.
