Music 51 33 26 venues like C.B.G.B. showcase local talent, while political playwrights hold captive audiences at KGB 12 and Nuyorican Poet's Cafe.

  • Cooper Square Committee Chrono
    Cooper Square Committee Chrono A listing of Cooper Square events and activities - including victories and defeats - from March 1959 through March 2005. Prepared by: Walter Thabit, March, 2005 Planners Network Cooper Square Committee Municipal Art Society 61 East 4thStreet Planning Center New York, NY 10003 212 228-8210 COOPER SQUARE CHRONOLOGY The Cooper Square Chronology was initiated by Thelma Burdick in March, 1959, and recorded significant events up to March, 1968. For years, it was the bible of the organization, allowing us to keep the important dates straight. Unfortunately, it has never been updated till now, and it might still be waiting to happen if there hadn't been a renewed interest in the Cooper Square story. Writers and advocate planners have interviewed old timers like myself and Frances Goldin, and after hearing of an interesting incident, then ask, "And what year was that?" Too often I didn't have a clue. So I finally decided to bring the chronology up-to-date. It has been hard work, but worth every minute. I'm not the only contributor to a chronology of events. Marci Reaven, doing a PhD. dissertation on Cooper Square has also put one together for her personal use, and I have used it to fill out some uncertain items as well as a few whose significance I missed. Also, Valerio Orselli, Cooper Square's Director for over 20 years prepared a specialized chronology of 40 membership meetings held around the issue of the rehabilitation program, the Mutual Housing Association, and the revised Cooper Square Plan. It is included here, starting in November, 1984, running through April, 1993.

  • This Lively Downtown Neighborhood Has Been a Center of Bohemian Lifestyle Since the Early 1900S
    This lively downtown neighborhood has been a center of bohemian lifestyle since the early 1900s. Home to jazz clubs in the 1920s, to 1960s hippy havens and 1980s punk rock clubs, the East Village has always had an edginess that the West Village (a.k.a. Greenwich Village) lacks. During Dutch colonial days, much of the East Village was farmland owned by Dutch colonial Governor Peter Stuyvesant. Its18th century pastoral setting gave way to 19th century wealth followed by 20th century bohemianism and is now a 21st century playland filled to the brim with bars, lounges, cheap restaurants and haute cuisine, boutiques, vintage shops and more. The most special thing about the East Village is free: the authenticity and energy you will feel when you stroll its streets. Be sure to check out our self-guided tour of Greenwich Village (West Village) as well as ​ ​ our full list of self-guided NYC tours. ​ ​ We recommend that you start this tour in Astor Place. Astor Place is located on the western boundary of the East Village. Use this Google map link for directions to Astor ​ Place. If you are considering purchasing a hop-on, hop-off bus ticket, most companies ​ offer stops in or just nearby Astor Place.

  • Webster Hall, 119-125 East 11 Street, Manhattan, Built: 1886; Architect
    Webster Hall, 119-125 East 11th Street, Manhattan, Built: 1886; Architect: Charles Rentz. Proposed Landmark site: Borough of Manhattan, Tax Map Block 556, Lot 68 Webster Hall was constructed in 1886 to the design of Charles Rentz; a massive seventy by one hundred foot, three-story ballroom and concert hall, constructed of Philadelphia Brick with stone accents, and un-glazed red terra- cotta that originates from an 1884 Boston Terra Cotta Company catalogue. Designed in the Renaissance Revival style, the building is adorned with a fluted bracketed cornice and Corinthian pilasters, decorative terra-cotta panels incorporating foliate motifs, gryphon, putti, and musical instruments. In 1892, a twenty by ninety-eight foot lot at No.125 was annexed and an addition was constructed for a bar, sitting rooms and living quarters for the owner. The addition used the same decorative motifs to create a seamless association between the two buildings. Webster Hall is one of the largest public gathering halls left in New York City, and has gone through many incarnations during it existence. Halls for hire or “Pleasure Gardens” have helped sustain the city's civic life, offering large interior spaces for use by many different social and political groups. Used primarily as a dance hall during the 1880s and 1890s, the building is one of the only dance halls still extant on the Lower East Side. At the end of the 19th century, it was estimated that there were over 130 dance halls, mostly located on the Lower East Side, because of the large working-class immigrant population that helped to popularize the Pleasure Garden.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission March 18, 2008, Designation List 402 LP-2273 WEBSTER HALL and ANNEX, 119-125 East 11th Street, Manhattan. Built 1886-87 and 1892; Charles Rentz, Jr., architect. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 556, Lot 68. On October 30, 2007, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of Webster Hall and Annex and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 9). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Seven people spoke in favor of designation, including City Councilmember Rosie Mendez and representatives of the building’s lessee, Assemblymember Deborah J. Glick, the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation, Historic Districts Council, Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America, and New York Landmarks Conservancy. Two representatives of the building’s owner opposed designation. In addition, the Commission received a number of communications in support of designation, including letters from City Councilmember Tony Avella, Manhattan Community Board 3, the Friends of Terra Cotta, and City Lore: The New York Center for Urban Folk Culture. Summary One of New York City’s most historically and culturally significant large nineteenth-century assembly halls, Webster Hall was constructed for Charles Goldstein in 1886-87, with an eastern Annex in 1892, to the designs of architect Charles Rentz, Jr. The Queen Anne style original structure and Renaissance Revival style Annex are clad in red Philadelphia pressed brick with brownstone trim, and effusively ornamented with unglazed red terra cotta, that on the original building was likely produced by the Boston Terra Cotta Co.
