    Course Syllabus Jump to Today Modern American Architecture Columbia University, GSAPP Spring 2020, Mondays 11-1 Professor Jorge Otero- Pailos Ph.D. TA: Shuyi [email protected] M.S TA: Mariana Ávila [email protected] Course Description: This course is a survey of American Modern Architecture since the country’s first centennial. As America ascended to its current position of hegemony during the late 19th and 20th centuries, its architects helped refashion the built environment to serve the needs of a growing and ever-diverse population. Hand in hand with the satisfaction of pragmatic requirements, American architects were called upon to fulfill deeper psychological wants, such as the country’s desire to have a national History. The American complex about the brevity, artificiality, and exterior dependency of its history, structured, with varying degrees of intensity, the evolution of the architectural discipline. Out of this deep-seated, and by no means exhausted, anxiety about producing, preserving, and identifying American history, came a sophisticated architectural culture; one capable of foiling, exploiting, subverting, and manipulating the various contradictions of modernity. From the standpoint of this relationship between history and modernity, we will analyze the American architectural struggle to be progressive and accepted, exceptional and customary, and to simultaneously capture the future and the past. Each lecture will analyze the production and reception of built (and written) works by renowned figures and anonymous builders. The question of History will help us discern the terms of engagement between architecture and other disciplines over time, such as: preservation, planning, real estate development, politics, health, ecology, sociology, and philosophy.

  • The Economic Impact of the Craft Beer Industry in Iowa
    The Economic Impact of the Craft Beer Industry in Iowa Prepared for and funded by The Iowa Wine and Beer Promotion Board By Mike Lipsman, Harvey Siegelman, and Dan Otto Strategic Economics Group May 2015 Acknowledgements This study would not have been possible without the assistance and cooperation of a number of individuals and organizations. Colleen Murphy (Iowa Tourism Office) and J. Wilson (Iowa Brewers Guild) provided great assistance in identifying existing craft breweries and brewpubs and additional businesses still in the planning stage of development. In addition, we wish to thank them along with Ryan Rost (515 Brewing) and Bill Heinrich (Big Grove Brewery) for acting as test subjects for the Brewers Survey. We are very grateful to all of those associated with Iowa breweries and brewpubs that took time from their busy schedules to respond to the survey. Bob Bailey and Leisa Bertram (Communications Director and Accountant II, respectively, Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division) provided invaluable help in obtaining craft beer production, distribution, and sales data, as well as information on the regulation of the industry. Also, James Morris (Iowa Workforce Development) helped by compiling and aggregating employment and wage data from Iowa breweries and brewpubs. Finally, we greatly enjoyed the visits we made to Iowa breweries and thank Dave Ropte and Ryan Rost (515 Brewing), John Martin (Confluence), and Megan McKay (Peace Tree) for the time they spent answering our many questions regarding their individual businesses and the craft beer industry. Pictures used in the report were either taken by the authors or obtained from public Internet sites.

After all, she spent years of her life exploring the Town of Milwaukee Union Cemetery, tucked away north of Bayshore Mall in Whitefish Bay. She remembered running through the cemetery as a girl "to scare ourselves on Halloween". Years later, as a neighbor and a historian, she began tending the little cemetery and quite literally, uncovering its history. Bird died of emphysema Thursday at the Glendale condominium she called home the last four years. She was 69. "She really died from cigarette smoking" said husband John D. Bird. "That's what did it." She was born Miriam Young in Milwaukee. When she was 4, her parents moved to Whitefish Bay. That was where she grew up and spent her adult life. It was also where she became the undisputed expert on local history, both in the village and the greater North Shore area. In her earlier years Bird had worked as a secretary. She met her husband when their mothers—concerned about their two twenty-something children remaining unmarried — managed to fix them up for a date. She spent the next decades in volunteer work, including at their children's schools, and working part time for the Whitefish Bay Public Library.

  • No 15 Oct 20
    The Oil Can The Award Winning Newsletter of the Cooperstown Rotary Club Vol. 87, No. 15— October 20, 2009 He designed our village library building... Ernest Flagg, architect extraordinary veryone here, Iʹm certain, has walked down Main Street in Cooperstown, and admired the beautiful Village Li‐ brary Building, which also houses the Cooperstown Art E Association and the Village Offices. But have you ever wondered who designed it? Somehow, I never did until very re‐ cently, when I learned that its architect was named Ernest Flagg. What I found surprised me. Ernest Flagg was not just a gifted ar‐ chitect, who designed important American buildings. He was also a social reformer, who helped improve the lives of New York Cityʹs urban poor. He was a city planner, who influenced todayʹs New York City skyline. And he designed what was at the time the tallest building in the world. So what was he doing in a small vil‐ lage in upstate New York? Ernest Flagg was born in Brooklyn in 1857, the son of an Episco‐ pal clergyman who had become an itinerant portrait painter, as well as a speculative land developer. The family was not without its connections. One of Ernestʹs aunts had married Cornelius Van‐ derbilt; his sister Louise married Charles Scribner, the publisher. In 1872, at the age of fifteen, Ernest left school to become an office boy on Wall Street, and two years later ‐‐ with his older brother Jared ‐‐ he opened a small business selling salt codfish at New Yorkʹs Fulton Fish Market. For a time he lived in some of the filthy, ill‐lit, badly ventilated tenements of the Lower West Side.

  • University of Nevada, Reno Looking at Femininity Through the Bottom of A
    University of Nevada, Reno Looking at Femininity Through the Bottom of a Pint Glass: Women in the Always-Already Masculine Space of Craft Brewing A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Melissa Hafey Dr. Jenanne K. Ferguson/Thesis Advisor May, 2020 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by entitled be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Advisor Committee Member Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph.D., Dean Graduate School i Abstract This thesis investigates the enduring presence of gender inequality in the modern craft brewing industry through an analysis of linguistic practices on beer labels, in craft beer documentaries, and through ethnographic inquiry at craft beer spaces, including independent breweries and bottle shops. This project tracks the subtle presence of linguistic and discursive boundary markers that index the preeminence of masculinity as a prerequisite for belonging in the craft industry, while simultaneously subordinating women as accessories to male achievements across multiple sites and in varied contexts. Through textual and qualitative analysis alongside participant observation at several craft brewing environments, I contend that women working in this industry are confronted with narrow stereotypes that limit their potential to be authoritative leaders or experts in their craft. Faced with the classic “trap question,” women who work in the craft brewing industry have little ability to influence the future of craft beer as leaders because they are diminished and distracted by enduring inequality that undermines and frustrates their contributions.

There were two speakers in support of designation, including representatives of the fire department and the Historic Districts Council. There were no speakers in opposition to designation. In addition, the Commission has received a letter from the Land Use Committee of Community Board 12 in support of designation. Summary The station house for Engine Company 67 was constructed in 1897-98 for a newly-formed fire company established to serve the rapidly­ growing section of New York City known as Washington Heights. Using the specific requirements developed for a firehouse, French-trained architects Ernest Flagg and Walter B. Chambers created a dynamic and lyrical composition which sets it apart from many other firehouse designs of the period. They used classical elements such as a bracketed cornice, a hooded, round arch, an elaborate cartouche, and a pedimented window opening set in a masonry building. They also included modem steel framing which is articulated in the large expanse of glass window openings, creating a unique facade which pays homage to both the past and future.
