  • Chapter 3: History and Land Use of City Hall Park
    Chapter 3: History and Land Use of City Hall Park A. Background History Alyssa Loorya Introduction This section is edited from the forthcoming doctoral dissertation from Loorya on City Hall Park. Loorya’s work references several graduate student projects associated with the overall City Hall Park project, most notably the Master’s theses of Mark Cline Lucey (included as the next section) and Julie Anidjar Pai as well as reports by Elizabeth M. Martin, Diane George, Kirsten (Davis) Smyth, and Jennifer Borishansky. These reports are presented in Chapter 6. This section outlines the history of the City Hall Park area. To provide for proper context, a general history of the development of the lower Manhattan area is presented first to provide a more complete picture of overall project area. City Hall Park is a relatively small triangular parcel of land (8.8 acres) within New York City’s Manhattan Island. It is bounded to the north by Chambers Street, to the east by Park Row, to the west by Broadway. It began as a cow pasture and today houses the seat of government for the nation’s largest city. The general history of City Hall Park is fairly well documented though only in a single comprehensive source.1 The changing uses of City Hall Park from the beginning of the colonial periodFig. 3-1: of theCity midHall nineteenthPark Location century reflect 1 The Master’s Thesis City Hall Park: An Historical Analysis by Mark Cline Lucey, 2003, (below) chronicles the physical development of City Hall Park from the Dutch Colonial period to the mid-nineteenth century.

  • Users' Behaviour of Small Urban Spaces in Winter and Marginal Seasons
    Arch. & Comport. I Arch. & Behav., Vol. 10, no 1, p. 95 - 109 95 Users' Behaviour of Small Urban Spaces in Winter and Marginal Seasons Shaogang Li 43-45 Smart Street Flushing, N. Y. 11355 U.S.A. Summary In this article, the author tries to analyze users' behaviour and the public life of small urban spaces in both winter and marginal seasons from a behavioural perspective, and holds that the planning, design and management of urban spaces should support the "personal control" mechanism in order to mediate the environmental stress caused by cold climate. The author first puts forward the concept of "sub-marginal period" and points out that only when temperature reaches about 40°F (4°C) do ideal microclimate conditions begin to influence users' behaviour and the public life of urban spaces positively and significantly, and suggests that micro-climate design be focused on the improvement of outdoor thermal comfort of urban spaces in sub- marginal periods and that the standard of building height and density control in downtown areas for solar access of urban spaces be based on the local solar altitude of sub-marginal periods. Resume Dans cet article, l'auteur tente d'analyser le comportement des utilisateurs et le dkroulement de la vie publique dans de petits espaces urbains en hiver et dans l'entre-saison. I1 utilise une approche behavioriste et considbre que la planification, l'amtnagement et la gestion des espaces urbain devraient encourager un mtcanisme de "contr8le personnel" permettant de tempkrer le stress causk par un climat froid. I1 propose d'abord le concept de "pkriode sub-marginale" et montre que, lorsque la tempkrature atteint environ 40°F, des conditions micro-climatiques idtales influencent de manikre significative et positive le comportement des utilisateurs et la vie publique.

  • Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture James
    The Communal Legitimacy of Collective Violence: Community and Politics in Antebellum New York City Irish Gang Subculture by James Peter Phelan A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Department of History and Classics University of Alberta ©James Phelan, 2014 ii Abstract This thesis examines the influences that New York City‘s Irish-Americans had on the violence, politics, and underground subcultures of the antebellum era. During the Great Famine era of the Irish Diaspora, Irish-Americans in Five Points, New York City, formed strong community bonds, traditions, and a spirit of resistance as an amalgamation of rural Irish and urban American influences. By the middle of the nineteenth century, Irish immigrants and their descendants combined community traditions with concepts of American individualism and upward mobility to become an important part of the antebellum era‘s ―Shirtless Democracy‖ movement. The proto-gang political clubs formed during this era became so powerful that by the late 1850s, clashes with Know Nothing and Republican forces, particularly over New York‘s Police force, resulted in extreme outbursts of violence in June and July, 1857. By tracking the Five Points Irish from famine to riot, this thesis as whole illuminates how communal violence and the riots of 1857 may be understood, moralised, and even legitimised given the community and culture unique to Five Points in the antebellum era. iii Table of Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................................

The Fault with Asphalt: Towards Absorbent Urban Design in New York City Scott Brown Abstract In the time of metropolises and rapid urbanization, design is instrumental in facilitating a mutualistic relationship between the built urban environment and the surrounding natural processes. This paper addresses the issue of stormwater runoff and identifies design techniques in urban areas used to mitigate the destructive consequences of urbanization related to precipitation and impermeability. With a focus on New York City, this study uses historical and current rainfall data as well as particular case studies to address successful rainwater collection and stormwater mitigation design implementations. To provide an interdisciplinary approach to combating stormwater runoff, the disciplines of environmental history, economics and politics, and related design techniques are discussed to create a more holistic discussion of this urban issue.
