The Steven and Sheila Aresty Foundation made a grant of $25,000 to endow a stipend for a summer intern to work at the Center for New York City Law. The recipient must be a second year law student who will, after the summer at the Center, continue through the following academic year to complete the work and writing assignment begun during the summer. The grant from the Aresty Foundation is the first grant received by the Center to be designated as endowment. The internship is to be named in honor of Sheila Murphy Aresty, a 1994 graduate of New York Law School who was the first City Law Fellow hired by the Center. The Center during her fellowship year had just been formed. During that year, the Center launched its first newsletter, CityLaw. Sheila co-authored the lead article in the very first issue of CityLaw, an article that detailed registration and reporting requirements for lobbyists. CityLaw is now in its seventeenth year, a lifetime for a newsletter. Sheila assisted in the creation and design of CityLaw, partici- pated in establishing the first CityLaw breakfasts, and, by her work, set the standard for the CityLaw Fellows who followed her in that position. After completing her fellowship year of 1994-95, Sheila began her legal career at the New York City Depart- ment of Investigation. She was promoted and subsequently moved to the Mayor’s Office of Contracts, where she was one of the first lawyers hired during a reorganization of that office led by Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. Sheila retired from the City to raise her young family with her husband Steven, but maintains a keen interest in New York City government and the Center for New York City Law. The internship in her name recognizes her interest in New York Law School, her loyalty to the Center for New York City Law, and her abiding interest in the integrity of New York City government.

    General Information • Landmarks Beyond the obvious crowd-pleasers, New York City landmarks Guggenheim (Map 17) is one of New York’s most unique are super-subjective. One person’s favorite cobblestoned and distinctive buildings (apparently there’s some art alley is some developer’s idea of prime real estate. Bits of old inside, too). The Cathedral of St. John the Divine (Map New York disappear to differing amounts of fanfare and 18) has a very medieval vibe and is the world’s largest make room for whatever it is we’ll be romanticizing in the unfinished cathedral—a much cooler destination than the future. Ain’t that the circle of life? The landmarks discussed eternally crowded St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Map 12). are highly idiosyncratic choices, and this list is by no means complete or even logical, but we’ve included an array of places, from world famous to little known, all worth visiting. Great Public Buildings Once upon a time, the city felt that public buildings should inspire civic pride through great architecture. Coolest Skyscrapers Head downtown to view City Hall (Map 3) (1812), Most visitors to New York go to the top of the Empire State Tweed Courthouse (Map 3) (1881), Jefferson Market Building (Map 9), but it’s far more familiar to New Yorkers Courthouse (Map 5) (1877—now a library), the Municipal from afar—as a directional guide, or as a tip-off to obscure Building (Map 3) (1914), and a host of other court- holidays (orange & white means it’s time to celebrate houses built in the early 20th century.
