We are delighted that you have joined us for the first NYC Volunteer Expo to be held in the Big Apple! Our Manhattan Chamber of Commerce Community Benefit Fund is dedicated to supporting non-profit organizations throughout Manhattan and we are very happy to bring 60 organizations to this event to promote their services to you! Our intention is to bring visibility to the many non-profit organizations exhibiting here in Vanderbilt Hall and to help them find new volunteers to support their very worthy missions. These organizations are the unsung heroes in our city, providing services that help to improve the quality of life of all New Yorkers. This event would not have taken place without our able-bodied Steering Committee; Phyllis White-Thorne of Con Edison, Patricia Cole of JP Morgan Chase and Nina Liebman whose initial inquiry to us about volunteer opportunities planted the seed which grew into Share Your Heart, NYC…Volunteer! And many thanks to the Corporate Volunteers of New York, especially to Liza Fabian Illonardo, Rebecca Sherman and Margot Cochran whose hard work and efforts with the exhibiting organizations brought them to this event. We would also like to recognize Paul Kastner of Jones Lang LaSalle representing Grand Central Terminal, who immediately stepped up to the plate to take the lead as Presenting Sponsor of the expo. And his staff and in particular, Jennifer Claire Scott, whose dedication and efforts to bring in the International Special Events Society and involve its members have been extraordinary! The support of our sponsors – AJ Bart, Altria, Con Edison, Goldman, Sachs & Co., Moon & Company, Standard & Poors, The Surdna Foundation, Verizon Foundation, and Volunteer Management Group – has been invalu- able and we thank them for their involvement. And lastly, we would like to thank all of the exhibiting organizations who continue every day to help our city and its denizens. With the crunch of funding effecting all of the non-profit organizations these days, we hope that you will sign up to volunteer and Share Your Heart this Valentine's season and always! Thank you for attending and for your support!

    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.

Her red-gold hair wafted behind her like a pony’s wavy mane. She was so excited! She glanced at her phone one more time. Could the news really be true? She ran over to the statue of the Wondercolt. Rainbow Dash and Applejack were already there, and the other girls were seconds behind her. “I got your text, Rainbow Dash,” Sunset Shimmer exclaimed breathlessly. “Did something come through the portal? Is Equestrian magic on the loose? Did Twilight come back with a problem that only we can solve?” Pinkie Pie giggled. “Has a giant cake monster covered all the cakes in the world in cake?” Rainbow Dash was surprised that all the girls had overreacted. What did they want? Another trio of evil Sirens to infiltrate their school and try to sow disharmony? She held up her guitar. The emergency was that she had broken a string—and she really wanted to practice some new songs for their band, the Sonic Rainbooms.

  • 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.
