    rartioter Vol. XII, No. 1 WINTER 1 9 7 9 BLACK DOME IN 1924 The Catskill Mountains have been known to white men for three hundred years and their valleys have been settled more than a cen- tury. It would seem as if all their summits ought by this time to be easily accessible by well known trails. Yet there are a dozen or more of the higher ones, above 3500 feet, which have no trails to their summits and which are climbed only by the exploring hiker, or perhaps a bear hunter in winter. I recently found another trackless peak, Black Dome, just under 4000 feet--3990 according to the Durham sheet of the United States Geological Survey--on a week-end climb in the northern Catskills. There is no trail over it, and the only paths that reach its flanks are faded out logging roads in the valleys north and south, attain- ing heights 1500 feet below its highest point. Black Dome is the central and highest of the three peaks that make up the Blackhead Mountains, running east and west, Black Head being the easternmost, then Black Dome and the last Thomas Cole. The other two are about fifty feet lower than the Dome. South of them is the valley of the East Kill, north that of Batavia Kill. North of Black Head runs a long ridge to Acra Point, then turning west to Windham High Peak. South this ridge runs through North Mountain and Stoppel Mountain to Kaaterskill Clove. Black Head is accessible by a good trail.

  • Page - 1 Booms
    Booms In a classic “Fifty Years in Wall Street”, the, author, Henry Clews, wrote in 1908 about boom conditions in the US. Booming stocks reflected booming conditions around the country, somewhat similar to what India is going through today. “Wall Street has lately been enjoying quite a boom in some respects differing from any in its previous history. Probably the most interesting feature about this boom is that it is not in any sense spectacular. In that respect it is unique. Prices of many stocks are higher and intrinsic values greater than they have ever been before. The market has all the qualities that normally would cause intensest excitement and focus the attention of the entire country on the Stock Exchange. Yet in spite of these conditions, the Street is in a normal state of mind, and it is doubtful if the general mass of the people, who get their information from the newspapers are fully aware that there is even an ordinary boom in Wall Street. This unusual condition is due, I believe, to the fact that the boom we are enjoying is built on a foundation that reaches clear to the bowels of the earth. There is nothing unnatural or artificial about it. Wall Street is simply one of the centres that reflects the general prosperity throughout the country. Farmers, merchants, mechanics, mill workers, and miners are all so intent in keeping pace with the progress in their own pursuits that they have no time to cast eyes our way. The same conditions that are booming stocks, are booming everything else in the country at an equal rate, so that we are in nowise singular or deserving of special attention.

    Landmarks Preservation Commission March 16, 1999, Designation List 303 LP-2031 (FORMER) NEW YORK TIMES BUILDING, 41 Park Row (aka 39-43 Park Row and 147-151 Nassau Street), Manhattan. Built 1888-89; George B. Post, architect; enlarged 1903-05, Robert Maynicke, architect. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 101 , Lot 2. On December 15, 1998, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the (former) New York Times Bu ilding and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 3). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Three witnesses, representing the New York Landmarks Conservancy, the Municipal Art Society, and the Historic Districts Council , spoke in favor of the designation. The hearing was re-opened on February 23 , 1999 for additional testimony from the owner, Pace University. Two representatives of Pace spoke, indicating that the university was not opposed to designation and looked forward to working with the Commission staff in regard to future plans for the building. The Commission has also received letters from Dr. Sarah Bradford Landau and Robert A.M. Stern in support of designation. This item had previously been heard for designation as an individual Landmark in 1966 (LP-0550) and in 1980 as part of the proposed Civic Center Hi storic District (LP-1125). Summary This sixteen-story office building, constructed as the home of the New York Times , is one of the last survivors of Newspaper Row, the center of newspaper publishing in New York City from the 1830s to the 1920s.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1 .T h e sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper le ft hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
