  • Vanishing Power Lines and Emerging Distributed Generation
    5-WARREN FINAL.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 5/15/2014 2:53 PM VANISHING POWER LINES AND EMERGING DISTRIBUTED GENERATION GINA S. WARREN† I. INTRODUCTION “Right now, I’d put my money on distributed resources.”1 xperts predict that distributed energy will contribute as much Eas twenty percent of the U.S. power supply by 2020.2 While no one will wake up tomorrow morning to an entirely new energy distribution system—complete with solar panels on the roof and a wind turbine in the back yard—distributed generation is receiving significant attention as the disruptive technology that will ultimately revolutionize the way energy is delivered in the United States. The reason for this shift is, in part, due to new technology that allows for more flexible localized generation of energy, and in part due to a changing climate resulting in frequent and violent storms that destroy large-scale energy infrastructure. A variety of distributed energy technologies are available today, including solar photovoltaic panels, battery storage, and micro turbines. These innovative technologies are not only appealing to today’s tech-savvy customers, they are also becoming more economically accessible to the average customer. This shift in customer behavior will directly threaten the current energy delivery model. The more customers utilize distributed generation † Gina S. Warren is an associate professor at Texas A&M University School of Law. Thank you Professors K.K. DuVivier and Joshua Fershee for your thorough and thoughtful comments and helpful guidance on this article (though any mistakes or overstatements are solely my own). Thank you Catherine Griffith, my brilliant research assistant, for all of your research and hard work on this project.

  • Report: Federal Houses Landmarked Or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999
    GREENWICH VILLAGE SOCIETY FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION Making the Case Federal Houses Landmarked or Listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places 1999-2016 The many surviving Federal houses in Lower Manhattan are a special part of the heritage of New York City. The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation has made the documentation and preservation of these houses an important part of our mission. This report highlights the Society’s mission in action by showing nearly one hundred fifty of these houses in a single document. The Society either proposed the houses in this report for individual landmark designation or for inclusion in historic districts, or both, or has advocated for their designation. Special thanks to Jiageng Zhu for his efforts in creating this report. 32 Dominick Street, built c.1826, landmarked in 2012 Federal houses were built between ca. 1790 to ca. 1835. The style was so named because it was the first American architectural style to emerge after the Revolutionary War. In elevation and plan, Federal Period row houses were quite modest. Characterized by classical proportions and almost planar smoothness, they were ornamented with simple detailing of lintels, dormers, and doorways. These houses were typically of load bearing masonry construction, 2-3 stories high, three bays wide, and had steeply pitched roofs. The brick facades were laid in a Flemish bond which alternated a stretcher and a header in every row. All structures in this report were originally built as Federal style houses, though

  • Mike Hamm Bachelor of Landscape Architecture '79
    Mike Hamm bachelor of landscape architecture '79 Hamm steered Portico’s designs, connecting with nature, culture “Portico” not only represents one architecture firm’s name, but their environmental philosophy. The word denotes the gateway or threshold between the interior – the architecture – and the exterior – the landscape environments. Mike Hamm, who spent half his tenure with Portico Group as president and CEO, co- founded the Seattle-based firm in 1984 with the other principal architects and landscape architects. April 2014 marks Hamm’s final involvement with the firm as he steps down. “I’ve been in the practice for 35 years and loved every moment of it, but you realize at a point in time there’s still many things one wants to do and see,” says Hamm, who graduated from Above: Mike Hamm, BArch ’79, CEO, Portico Group. University of Oregon’s School of Architecture and Allied Arts in 1979 with a degree in landscape architecture. Zoos, aquariums, arboretums, museums, visitor centers, and public gardens for city, state, federal, and nonprofit foundations around the world have helped to build the firm’s design reputation. Portico’s work has appeared in five continents, from a zoo in Mumbai, India, to the expansion of the North Capital Campus called Heritage Park in Olympia, Washington, to a recent concept design for an aquarium in Seoul, South Korea. “We’re not schooled in architecture school to know how to run a business,” he says. “It’s not part of the curriculum, so that’s a whole other life story. That’s been rewarding and energizing as a learning experience.” Hamm was raised in St.

Department of Classics, June, 2018. ADVISOR: Hans-Friedrich Mueller. I analyze the Pantheon, one of the most well-preserVed buildings from antiquity, through time. I start with Agrippa's Pantheon, the original Pantheon that is no longer standing, which was built in 27 or 25 BC. What did it look like originally under Augustus? Why was it built? We then shift to the Pantheon that stands today, Hadrian-Trajan's Pantheon, which was completed around AD 125-128, and represents an example of an architectural reVolution. Was it eVen a temple? We also look at the Pantheon's conversion to a church, which helps explain why it is so well preserVed.

  • 354 WEST 11Th STREET HOUSE, Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission March 6, 2007, Designation List 387 LP-2210 354 WEST 11th STREET HOUSE, Manhattan. Built c. 1841-42. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 637, Lot 63. On November 14, 2006, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 354 West 11th Street House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 1). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Thirteen people spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of State Senator Thomas K. Duane, State Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, City Council Speaker Christine C. Quinn, Manhattan Borough President Scott M. Stringer, Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, Manhattan Community Board 2, Greenwich Village Community Task Force, Municipal Art Society of New York, Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America, Historic Districts Council, New York Landmarks Conservancy, and Morton Street Block Association. One of the owners spoke in opposition to designation. In addition, the Commission received several letters in support of designation, including that of U.S. Congressman Jerrold Nadler. Summary No. 354 West 11th Street is a relatively rare surviving residential building of the early period of the mixed-use development that came to characterize the far western section of Greenwich Village, which was built up with residences for the middle and professional classes, industry, and transportation- and maritime-related commerce. It is also one of the best extant examples of the Greek Revival style rowhouses of the 1830s-40s located in the Hudson River waterfront section of Manhattan, specifically the area west of the Greenwich Village Historic District between West 14th Street and Lower Manhattan.
