  • Writing Home from Around the World, 1926–1927
    Writing Home from Around the World, 1926–1927 A keen and amused observer, Tom Johnson is an articulate and conscien- tious letter writer. The reader has the feeling he was writing for himself as much as his family as he makes sentences and paragraphs of his impressions of the world at the height of colonialism. By THOMAS H. JOHNSON Edited with an introduction by LAURA JOHNSON WATERMAN y father, Thomas H. Johnson, the writer of these letters, was born in 1902 on the Connecticut River Valley farm known as Stone Cliff, located one mile north of the vil- Mlage of Bradford. In 1926, upon his graduation from Williams College, Tom Johnson embarked on a world cruise that was to last the length of a school year—September to May. He had been invited to teach Eliza- bethan Drama and American Literature (subjects he soon found to be not particularly relevant) on the fi rst ever student travel experiment. This was launched on a large scale with over fi fty faculty and four hun- dred and fi fty students, one hundred and twenty of them women. A. J. McIntosh, president of the University Travel Association, saw this as an opportunity to combine formal education with travel, and orga- nized the adventure by reaching out to colleges across the country. The project became known as the Floating University and was considered . LAURA JOHNSON WATERMAN is the author of Losing the Garden (2005), a memoir of thirty years of homesteading in East Corinth, Vermont. She co-authored with her late husband, Guy Waterman, fi ve books on the history of climbing the moun- tains of the Northeast and related environmental issues, among them, Forest and Crag (1989), Backwoods Ethics (1993), and Wilderness Ethics (1993).

Introduction When I was approached by the editors of Physics in Perspecti6e to prepare an article on New York City for The Physical Tourist section, I was happy to do so. I have been a New Yorker all my life, except for short-term stays elsewhere on sabbatical leaves and other visits. My professional life developed in New York, and I married and raised my family in New York and its environs. Accordingly, writing such an article seemed a natural thing to do. About halfway through its preparation, however, the attack on the World Trade Center took place.

    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION ONTEMPORAR Y IN OMMENTARY HE WENTIES T T C * THE SKYSCRAPER In the American self-image of the 1920s, the icon of modern was the modern city, the icon of the modern city was New York City, and the icon of New York City was the skyscraper. Love it or hate it, the skyscraper symbolized the go-go and up-up drive that “America” meant to itself and much of the world. A sampling of twenties illustration and commentary on the architectural phenomenon that still captures the American imagination is presented here. Berenice Abbott, Cliff and Ferry Street, Manhattan, photograph, 1935 Louis Lozowick, 57th St. [New York City], lithograph, 1929 Museum of the City of New York Renwick Gallery/Smithsonian Institution * ® National Humanities Center, AMERICA IN CLASS , 2012: americainclass.org/.

Duffus was a novelist, literary critic, and essayist with New York newspapers. “The Vertical City” The New Republic One of the intangible satisfactions which a New Yorker receives as a reward July 3, 1929 for living in a most uncomfortable city arises from the monumental character of his artificial scenery. Skyscrapers are undoubtedly popular with the man of the street. He watches them with tender, if somewhat fearsome, interest from the moment the hole is dug until the last Gothic waterspout is put in place. Perhaps the nearest a New Yorker ever comes to civic pride is when he contemplates the skyline and realizes that there is and has been nothing to match it in the world.

    Jerome Avenue Rezoning EIS Chapter 26: Response to Comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement * A. INTRODUCTION This chapter summarizes and responds to comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) issued on August 18, 2017 for the proposed Jerome Avenue Rezoning. Oral and written comments were received during the public meeting on the DEIS held by the New York City Department of City Planning (DCP) on November 29, 2017 at Spector Hall, 22 Reade Street, New York, New York 10007. The DEIS hearing is required under City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) and was held in conjunction with the City Planning Commission’s (CPC) Citywide public hearing pursuant to Uniform Land Use Review Procedure (ULURP). The comment period remained open until December 11, 2017. Section B lists the elected officials, organizations, and individuals that provided relevant comments on the DEIS. Sections C and D contains a summary of these relevant comments and a response to each. These summaries convey the substance of the comments made, but do not necessarily quote the comments verbatim. Comments are organized by subject matter and generally parallel the chapter structure of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement. Appendix K contains the written comments received on the DEIS. B.
