Press Kit 2012 Celebrating 110 years of Greenwich Village Hospitality PRESS KIT 2012 Media Contact: Stephanie Teuwen I Stephanie Miller | Amy Weisinger Teuwen One Image PR [email protected] I [email protected] | [email protected] Tel: 212.244.0622 Mobile ST: 917.974.6205 I Mobile SM: 917.859.0352 Celebrating 110 years of Greenwich Village Hospitality Marking its 110th anniversary this year, the Washington Square Hotel occupies a unique place in Greenwich Village’s history. Located at Waverly and MacDougal Streets, just off the Northwest corner of Washington Square Park, it is the sole survivor from the city’s golden age of hôtellerie in the lower 5th Avenue vicinity. The 100% smoke-free property features 152 guest rooms, an intimate lobby, 24-hour front desk service, fitness room, lobby bar and complimentary continental breakfast at the highly acclaimed North Square Restaurant & Lounge. Free Wi-Fi™ is available throughout the hotel. A Haven for Writers, Artists and Visitors for More than a Century The Washington Square hotel was built in 1902 as a residential hotel named the Hotel Earle after its first owner, Earl S. L’Amoureux. The hotel occupied a single, eight-story, red brick building on Waverly Place, in the heart of affluent Greenwich Village, now an historic landmark district. In 1903, L’Amoureux sold the hotel to Frederick D. Fricke. Fricke, in 1908, built an identical, connecting building to create a grand apartment hotel, complete with reading rooms, restaurant, and banquet facilities. Four years later he added a ninth floor and, in 1917 he built an adjoining three story building, bringing the hotel to MacDougal Street, at the northwest corner of picturesque Washington Square. In the 1930s, Knott’s Hotels, one of the nation’s first hotel chains, managed the Earle. Twenty years later, a New York family bought the hotel, and became the new operators. This was a time of great change for the neighborhood. Once a staid, affluent community, (as depicted in Henry James’ Washington Square and The Heiress), Greenwich Village was becoming the center of New York’s Bohemian counterculture; reflected by the Beat generation who gravitated to the coffee houses and jazz clubs. The once grand hotel deteriorated into a shabby apartment hotel during the 1960s, making it an attractive address for struggling artists, actors, writers and musicians. Throughout the last century many celebrities made their home at the hotel which include Ernest Hemingway, Dylan Thomas, Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Bill Cosby, the Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Dee Dee Ramone, the B-52s, Albert King, Bo Diddley, Art Blakey and Dexter Gordon. In 1973, the Paul family purchased the hotel and began the process of upgrading the property. They converted the residential hotel into a commercial facility, catering to both domestic and foreign travelers. They renamed the hotel in 1986, to reflect the proximity of the historic Washington Square, and the importance of the surrounding, landmark neighborhood. In 1992, Judy Paul opened North Square Restaurant, a first class New York bistro at the hotel. If the charm and excitement of Greenwich Village attracted guests to the Earle a century ago, it is these same qualities that make the Washington Square Hotel so appealing to travelers today. Art Deco inspired lobby and rooms at this historic Greenwich Village landmark The Washington Square Hotel, one of Greenwich Village’s oldest and New York City’s few remaining family-owned hotels, continues after a century to reflect the personality of its neighborhood in all its charm, sophistication and individuality. The hotel has recently completed a wave of improvements demonstrating its commitment to providing guests with warm personal service, in an elegant and modern atmosphere. Recognized as an inviting Art Deco-style 152-room hotel, the updated rooms, amenities, lobby and lobby bar confirm Washington Square Hotel’s prominence as a rare and historic landmark. Rooms and Amenities The Washington Square Hotel has been a labor of love for the Paul family. Since purchasing the hotel in 1973, they have upgraded the hotel floor by floor. “We wanted to update the feel of the rooms, while maintaining the charm and comfort associated with the Washington Square Hotel,” explain Rita and Dan Paul. The rooms at the Washington Square Hotel artfully mix the style of the Art Deco period with contemporary design and are all smoke-free. They embody a sense of warmth and character often lacking in other hotels. The rooms have soft mauve or camel colored walls with the look of suede, rich dark wood furnishings, granite-top vanities and bedside tables. The beds feature pillow top mattresses with padded headboards and fluffy comforters. Lighting in the new rooms is subtle, and soft, with night-lights in the bathrooms. The bathrooms feature convenient touches such as, mahogany storage cubicles and chrome fixtures. Christina Ziegler of CZ Design and Rita Paul handled the redesign of the rooms. Christina founded CZ Design in 2001 and has created the interior design for a number of high profile residences and commercial spaces in Manhattan and Montauk. In addition to being an owner of the Washington Square Hotel, Rita is also an artist and has lent her distinctive style to the hotel over the years. Christina and Rita both love Art Deco design and have incorporated references from this period in the rooms. For example, Rita created the artwork by adding playful flower adornments to glamour shots of various actors from the period. Christina used faux baby ostrich leather to upholster the headboards. The Washington Square Hotel has also installed both high speed internet lines and Wi-Fi™ access in the rooms. Both are complimentary to guests. Other simple luxuries include plush terry robes, pillow-top mattresses, Keurig™ coffee makers, iPod™ compatible clock radios, in- room safes and LCD TVs. Massage and facial services are available upon request. “We are continually striving for ways to make our guests feel comfortable and special,” says Judy Paul. “The rooms reflect the needs of today’s traveler while also providing a place to relax and retreat during their stay.” The upgrades began in 2002 with the lobby and lobby bar for the hotel’s centennial and then followed with the redecorated guest rooms. The lobby has an inviting reception area, authentic Art Deco light fixtures and handmade tile-work by Rita Paul. The lobby bar provides a relaxing spot for guests to enjoy afternoon tea, cocktails and light fare, Monday through Saturday, 3pm-10pm. This intimate room also provides a unique venue for small parties and private dining. Greenwich Village The Washington Square Hotel is located in one of New York City’s most celebrated and romantic neighborhoods, Greenwich Village. The area has been a Mecca to the creative, rebellious and Bohemian, who have given Greenwich Village its unique character. Today the neighborhood retains its artistic spirit while also being the home to gourmet food shops, eclectic boutiques, hip restaurants, hidden gardens, jazz, blues, and poetry venues and architecture dating back to the early 1800’s. The Washington Square Hotel has close relationships with a number of famous jazz clubs in Greenwich Village, including the Blue Note and the Village Vanguard and can make ticket arrangements for guests upon request. Over A Century of Hospitality The Washington Square Hotel was built in 1902 and originally named the Hotel Earle. Over the years, the hotel has been home to actors, musicians and writers, including Ernest Hemingway, Bob Dylan, Bill Cosby, the Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Dee Dee Ramone, the B-52s, Albert King, Bo Diddley, Art Blakey and Dexter Gordon. Rita and Dan bought the hotel in 1973 and converted it from a residential hotel into one catering to domestic and foreign travelers. In 1992 the Paul’s daughter, Judy, opened an American bistro in the hotel. Originally called C3, it was renamed North Square in 2002 in honor of its tenth anniversary. The restaurant features the innovative cuisine of Chef Yoel Cruz and has garnered the Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence.

An NYCLPC map review had suggested that the cistern, a ubiquitous and often I archaeologically rewarding backyard feature, might survive under alate-19th-century, rear building extension. At the time of the request, construction was in progress in the backyard of the 4-story house erected on the north side of Waverly Place west of Washington SquarePark in I 1839 or 1840. Subsequent but limited research (maps, census manuscripts, deed index, New York City Directories) I indicated the builder was Asaph Stone, I a British-born merchant. Stone also owned and built neighboring 105,107, and III Waverly Place (Tax Assessments 1841), with 107 Waverly his home. Until 1855, 109 Waverly Place was rented to various merchants, but in that year, Stone's I descendents sold 109 Waverly Place to August Noel, then a window glass merchant.

  • 154 WEST 14Th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14Th Street (Aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 28, 2011, Designation List 444 LP-2419 154 WEST 14th STREET BUILDING, 154-162 West 14th Street (aka 51-59 Seventh Avenue), Manhattan. Built 1912-13; Herman Lee Meader, architect; New York Architectural Terra Cotta Co., terra cotta. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 609, Lot 7. On June 22, 2010, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 154 West 14th Street Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of New York Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, and the Historic Districts Council. Summary The 154 West 14th Street Building (1912-13), a 12-story speculative loft structure constructed for lawyer-banker and real estate developer Leslie R. Palmer, was the first completed New York City design by architect Herman Lee Meader, with whom Palmer collaborated on five projects. The building’s location at the prominent intersection of 14th Street and Seventh Avenue anticipated the southward extension of Seventh Avenue and its new subway line, and benefitted from its proximity and direct access to the Holland Tunnel and west side freight terminals. Arranged in a tripartite base-shaft-capital composition with large window areas, it is a striking and unusual example of a large loft building partly clad in terra cotta – on the three-story base, on the spandrels between the white-brick piers of the midsection, and on the upper portion.

  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity in the News
    Manhattan Retail Market MID-2ND QUARTER 2016 REPORT Retail Activity In The News Virtual Restaurant Business Revolutionizing Traditional Food Delivery The growing convenience of home food delivery through services such as Seamless and GrubHub has prompted the launch of what can be best described as “virtual restaurants.” One company Green Summit Group currently operates 2-kitchens and boasts 8 “restaurant” brands, yet is void of any storefronts. The business model is banking on the projection that most New York City dwellers won’t care or realize that the food is not being prepared in a traditional restaurant. Green Summit has eliminated the burden of managing retail spaces, while also further benef ting from its ability to shift menu items more quickly to cater to the fast-evolving preferences of consumers by creating another online-branded “restaurant” that appeals to the f avor of the moment. If a particular brand does not meet f nancial expectations it is easily scrapped, incurring a relatively low cost of failure. Currently in expansion mode, in addition to existing kitchens in Midtown and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the Green Summit plans to open 4 additional kitchens in the Financial District, Downtown Brooklyn, the Upper East Side, and the East Village in 2016 in order to be within delivery range of 90% of New York’s online food-ordering population according to the company’s projections. Generating about $10 million in revenue in 2015, expansion plans are reportedly expected to triple revenue in 2016. Success of the company launched about 2 and a-half years ago may be short-lived in the opinion of some skeptics of the virtual model, pointing out that consumers want to engage with the restaurant brand.
