  • 147 EIGHTH AVENUE HOUSE, Manhattan Built C
    Landmarks Preservation Commission November 17, 2009 Designation List No.423 LP-2346 147 EIGHTH AVENUE HOUSE, Manhattan Built c. 1828, architect unknown Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 741, Lot 32 On June 23, 2009, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the 147 Eighth Avenue House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was duly advertised according to provisions of law. Three witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Historic Districts Council, the Society for the Architecture of the City, and Community Board 4. Summary No. 147 Eighth Avenue is one of a pair of highly intact 3 1/2 story Federal style houses constructed 1827 to 1828. It is a rare survivor from the earliest period of development in the area that is now part of Chelsea. No. 147 Eighth Avenue has continuously housed both residential tenants and businesses, reflecting the evolving commercial character of Eighth Avenue. The building was constructed 1828 for Stephen Weeks, who owned the property for a short time. He continued to conduct business at this location, well into the 1840s. Over the course of the centuries, the original storefront configuration of the ground floor has had several alterations; however, this row house, like its neighbor at 145 Eighth Avenue, is intact above its storefront and exhibits the attributes of the Federal style houses of the era. This row house has a steeply pitched roof, with double dormer windows. The building shares a party wall and central chimney with its neighbor, and a façade clad in Flemish bond brickwork.

  • July 8 Grants Press Release
    CITY PARKS FOUNDATION ANNOUNCES 109 GRANTS THROUGH NYC GREEN RELIEF & RECOVERY FUND AND GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC GRANT APPLICATION NOW OPEN FOR PARK VOLUNTEER GROUPS Funding Awarded For Maintenance and Stewardship of Parks by Nonprofit Organizations and For Free Live Performances in Parks, Plazas, and Gardens Across NYC July 8, 2021 - NEW YORK, NY - City Parks Foundation announced today the selection of 109 grants through two competitive funding opportunities - the NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund and GREEN / ARTS LIVE NYC. More than ever before, New Yorkers have come to rely on parks and open spaces, the most fundamentally democratic and accessible of public resources. Parks are critical to our city’s recovery and reopening – offering fresh air, recreation, and creativity - and a crucial part of New York’s equitable economic recovery and environmental resilience. These grant programs will help to support artists in hosting free, public performances and programs in parks, plazas, and gardens across NYC, along with the nonprofit organizations that help maintain many of our city’s open spaces. Both grant programs are administered by City Parks Foundation. The NYC Green Relief & Recovery Fund will award nearly $2M via 64 grants to NYC-based small and medium-sized nonprofit organizations. Grants will help to support basic maintenance and operations within heavily-used parks and open spaces during a busy summer and fall with the city’s reopening. Notable projects supported by this fund include the Harlem Youth Gardener Program founded during summer 2020 through a collaboration between Friends of Morningside Park Inc., Friends of St. Nicholas Park, Marcus Garvey Park Alliance, & Jackie Robinson Park Conservancy to engage neighborhood youth ages 14-19 in paid horticulture along with the Bronx River Alliance’s EELS Youth Internship Program and Volunteer Program to invite thousands of Bronxites to participate in stewardship of the parks lining the river banks.

When it opened in September of 1887 it was an experiment, a response to the immigrants’desire to practice Orthodox Judaism, and to do so in America, their new Promised Land. Today the Eldridge Street Synagogue is Tthe only building on the Lower East Side—once the largest Jewish city in the world—earmarked for broad and public exploration of the American Jewish experience. The Museum at Eldridge Street researches the history of the building, uncovering new ways and stories to bring the building and its history to life. Learning about the congregants and their history ties us to broader trends on the Lower East Side and in American history. To help explore these trends, the Museum at Eldridge Street asks leading scholars to lend their expertise.

This report measures the state of parks in Brooklyn. There are many different kinds of parks — active, passive, and pocket — and this report focuses on active parks that have a mix of amenities and uses. It is important for Brooklynites to have a pleasant park in their neighborhood to enjoy open space, meet their neighbors, play, and relax. While park equity is integral to creating One Brooklyn — a place where all residents can enjoy outdoor recreation and relaxation — fulfilling the vision of community parks first depends on measuring our current state of parks. This report will be used as a tool to guide my parks capital allocations and recommendations to the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation (NYC Parks), as well as to identify recommendations to improve advocacy for parks at the community and grassroots level in order to improve neighborhoods across the borough.

  • New York's Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian
    FRUNZA, BOGDANA SIMINA., M.S. Streetscape and Ethnicity: New York’s Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian American Ethnic Identity. (2008) Directed by Prof. Jo R. Leimenstoll. 161 pp. The current research looked at ways in which the built environment of an ethnic enclave contributes to the definition and redefinition of the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. Assuming a dynamic component of the built environment, the study advanced the idea of the streetscape as an active agent of change in the definition and redefinition of ethnic identity. Throughout a century of existence, Little Italy – New York’s most prominent Italian enclave – changed its demographics, appearance and significance; these changes resonated with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. From its beginnings at the end of the nineteenth century until the present, Little Italy’s Mulberry Street has maintained its privileged status as the core of the enclave, but changed its symbolic role radically. Over three generations of Italian immigrants, Mulberry Street changed its role from a space of trade to a space of leisure, from a place of providing to a place of consuming, and from a social arena to a tourist tract. The photographic analysis employed in this study revealed that changes in the streetscape of Mulberry Street connected with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants, from regional Southern Italian to Italian American. Moreover, the photographic evidence demonstrates the active role of the street in the permanent redefinition of

  • Chinatown: a Taste of China in New York City
    Chinatown: A Taste of China in New York City Historical Overview Chinatown in New York City was the second Chinatown created after the one made in San Francisco, California. Similar to the first one, Chinatown was originally a place for Chinese immigrants to come to after getting off their long journey on the ships. Originally the Chinese immigrants came to the West in hopes of getting a quick fortune from the Gold Rush or earning money from working on the Transcontinental Railroad. However, they soon realized that there was no potential to obtain wealth or to gain a job since the railroad was completed. They began to work for low wages at textile or cigarette making factories. However, since these immigrants were working at drastically lower prices, Americans were unable to get a job. This caused tension to grow and the Chinese faced increasing discrimination and violence (Waxman par.2-4). To escape these hardships, a majority of Chinese immigrants began to move towards the East Coast. These immigrants typically lived in the slums of the Five Points and the boundary of New York. By staying together, they would be able to support each other and separate themselves from the rest of society to live their own lives. As a result of not assimilating and stealing jobs, the U.S. government enacted the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. This diminished the number of Chinese immigrants who could come to the United States unless they had a special permit to enter. This caused the Chinese immigrants to become devastated because they could not bring their family relatives or friends to join them in the United States.
