  • Introduction
    Introduction Forty Years with the Jews of Harlem— the Old and the Renewed In the spring of 2002, David Dunlap, architecture columnist for the New York Times, came to my office to discuss an article he was com- posing about a lost and forgotten Jewish community. The subject of his investigation was Harlem. I was taken aback by the idea that a New York Jewish settlement that once had housed close to 175,000 Jews was not remembered. After all, I had written my first book, When Harlem Was Jewish, 1870– 1930, in 1978. And for more than the next quarter century, I had reminded everyone who would hear me out— fellow academicians and the general public alike— how important the com- munity had been in the history of Gotham. I argued everywhere that the saga of immigrant Jewish life and advancement in the metropolis during the early decades of the prior century was incomplete without considering Harlem. One of the prime intellectual conceits was that a complex set of forces motivated Jewish relocation from one area of the city to the next and greatly influenced the types of group identifica- tions that were maintained. Prior historians had not been sensitive to the reality that downtown—that is, the Lower East Side—and uptown alike were home, at least after 1900, to both poor and more affluent Jews. Previous scholars also had not discussed how these two sibling communities likewise included both acculturated Jews and those who were just starting to learn American ways. Indeed, the fact was that more immigrants and their children moved to Harlem, or were pushed out of the so-called “ghetto,” before they achieved financial success than as a sign that they had begun to make it in America.

  • Chapter 3: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy
    Chapter 3: Land Use, Zoning, and Public Policy A. INTRODUCTION This chapter examines the Proposed Actions’ effects on land use and development trends, their compatibility with surrounding land use, and their consistency with public land use and zoning policies. As described in Chapter 1, “Project Description,” the Proposed Actions recognize the need for redevelopment to support the revitalization of the Manhattanville section of West Harlem. The Proposed Actions include a rezoning and related land use approvals to permit new land uses and a broader range of uses than currently allowed under the existing zoning and would require the adoption of a General Project Plan (GPP). Because the Proposed Actions involve the rezoning of a sizable area in Manhattanville in West Harlem, this chapter provides an assessment of existing and future conditions with and without the Proposed Actions for three separate study areas: the Project Area, the primary study area, and the secondary study area. These three study areas are described in further detail below. PRINCIPAL CONCLUSIONS As described in greater detail below, the Proposed Actions would improve conditions in the Project Area, would not result in significant adverse impacts on land use and zoning, and would be consistent with public policies for the Project Area, primary study area, and secondary study area. The floor area ratio (FAR) and use restrictions under the current zoning are not conducive to redevelopment and economic growth. The Proposed Actions are intended to provide the zoning and land use changes needed to revitalize this section of West Harlem and to allow Columbia University to develop a new Academic Mixed-Use Development for Columbia’s long- term growth needs.

  • Complex Networks of Urban Environments
    Springer Complexity Springer Complexity is an interdisciplinary program publishing the best research and academic-level teaching on both fundamental and applied aspects of complex systems – cutting across all traditional disciplines of the natural and life sciences, engineering, economics, medicine, neuroscience, social and computer science. Uses Complex Systems are systems that comprise many interacting parts with the abil- ity to generate a new quality of macroscopic collective behavior the manifestations of which are the spontaneous formation of distinctive temporal, spatial or functional structures. Models of such systems can be successfully mapped onto quite diverse “real-life” situations like the climate, the coherent emission of light from lasers, chemical reaction-diffusion systems, biological cellular networks, the dynamics of stock markets and of the internet, earthquake statistics and prediction,Educational freeway traf- fic, the human brain, or the formation of opinions in social systems, to name just some of the popular applications. For Although their scope and methodologies overlap somewhat, one can distinguish the following main concepts and tools: self-organization, nonlinear dynamics, syn- ergetics, turbulence, dynamical systems, catastrophes, instabilities, stochastic pro- cesses, chaos, graphs and networks, cellular automata, adaptive systems, genetic al- gorithms and computational intelligence.

  • Chapter 8: Historic Resources
    Chapter 8: Historic Resources A. INTRODUCTION This chapter analyzes the potential of the Proposed Actions to impact historic resources, which include both archaeological and architectural resources. The Proposed Actions would result in the rezoning of the approximately 35-acre Project Area, which was predominantly developed in the early 20th century and contains a number of notable, undesignated historic structures. Several of these resources are located in the Academic Mixed-Use Area (Subdistrict A), the 17 acres to be redeveloped by Columbia. To understand fully historic issues and to prepare a comprehensive historic resources analysis, Columbia has consulted with the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) and the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC). The historic resources analysis has been prepared in accordance with City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR), the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA), and the New York State Historic Preservation Act of 1980 (SHPA). These laws and regulations require that City and State agencies, respectively, consider the impacts of their actions on historic properties. This technical analysis follows the guidance of the 2001 CEQR Technical Manual. The CEQR Technical Manual recommends that an analysis of archaeological resources be undertaken for actions that would result in any in-ground disturbance. It also recommends that an architectural resources assessment be performed if a proposed action would result in any of the following (even if no known architectural resources are located nearby): new construction; physical alteration of any building; change in scale, visual context, or visual setting of any building, structure, object, or landscape feature; or screening or elimination of publicly accessible views.
