  • STARRETT-LEHIGH BUILDING, 601-625 West 26Th Street, Borough of Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission October 7, 1986; Designation List 186 LP-1295 STARRETT-LEHIGH BUILDING, 601-625 west 26th Street, Borough of Manhattan. Built 1930-31; Russell G. and Walter M. Cory, architects; Yasuo Matsui, associate architect; Purdy & Henderson, consulting engineers. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 672, Lot 1. On April 13, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Starrett-Lehigh Building, and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 20). The hearing was continued to June 8, 1982 (Item No. 3). Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Four witnesses spoke in favor of designation, and a letter supporting designation was read into the record. Two representatives of the owner spoke at the hearings and took no position regarding the proposed designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Starrett-Lehigh Building, constructed in 1930-31 by architects Russell G. and walter M. Cory with Yasuo Matsui as associate architect and Purdy & Henderson as consulting engineers, is an enormous warehouse building that occupies the entire block bounded by West 26th and 27th Streets and 11th and 12th Avenues. A cooperative venture of the Starrett Investing Corporation and the Lehigh Valley Railroad, and built by Starrett Brothers & Eken, the structure served originally as a freight terminal for the railroad with rental manufacturing and warehouse space above. A structurally complex feat of engineering with an innovative interior arrangement, the Starrett-Lehigh Building is also notable for its exterior design of horizontal ribbon windows alternating with brick and concrete spandrels.

  • 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.
