147 EIGHTH AVENUE HOUSE, Manhattan Built C
Landmarks Preservation Commission November 17, 2009 Designation List No.423 LP-2346 147 EIGHTH AVENUE HOUSE, Manhattan Built c. 1828, architect unknown Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 741, Lot 32 On June 23, 2009, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation of the 147 Eighth Avenue House and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was duly advertised according to provisions of law. Three witnesses spoke in favor of designation, including representatives of the Historic Districts Council, the Society for the Architecture of the City, and Community Board 4. Summary No. 147 Eighth Avenue is one of a pair of highly intact 3 1/2 story Federal style houses constructed 1827 to 1828. It is a rare survivor from the earliest period of development in the area that is now part of Chelsea. No. 147 Eighth Avenue has continuously housed both residential tenants and businesses, reflecting the evolving commercial character of Eighth Avenue. The building was constructed 1828 for Stephen Weeks, who owned the property for a short time. He continued to conduct business at this location, well into the 1840s. Over the course of the centuries, the original storefront configuration of the ground floor has had several alterations; however, this row house, like its neighbor at 145 Eighth Avenue, is intact above its storefront and exhibits the attributes of the Federal style houses of the era. This row house has a steeply pitched roof, with double dormer windows. The building shares a party wall and central chimney with its neighbor, and a façade clad in Flemish bond brickwork.

The Unknown History of New York City's Chinatown: a Story of Crime During the Years of American Prohibition Kathryn Christense
The Unknown History of New York City’s Chinatown: A Story of Crime During the Years of American Prohibition Kathryn Christensen: Undergraduate of History and Asian Studies at SUNY New Paltz Popular interpretations of immigrants in New York City during the era of Prohibition have looked at it through the lens of European immigrants. Groups such as the Italian Mafia, and Irish gangs in New York City are a well-rehearsed story within the history of Prohibition. However, Europeans were not the only immigrants that began to flood into the ports of New York City during the early 20th century. Within New York City’s Chinatown there was the emergence of a vast network of organized criminal activity, along with various raids revealing rice wine moonshine and other violations of the 18th amendment, just like their European counterparts. Though largely overlooked in the historiography, this paper argues that Chinatown,and the Chinese in New York City played an integral role in the Prohibition era United States. In order to understand the Chinese population that lived in the United States during the early 1900s, it is important to lay the framework for why they first came to the United States. Like many other immigrant groups that immigrated during this time, many Chinese came over to escape a difficult political and economic climate. In China, the Opium war left the Chinese defeated by the British Empire leaving its reputation as the protectorate and superpower of the East shattered. This was accompanied by famines and floods across the nation resulting in economic catastrophe which further resulted in civil war and several uprisings, most notably the Taiping Rebellion.1 The unstable environment in China caused several Chinese to flee the country.

Background—Early Chinese Americans
Jessica Yuan CASA 103 March 15, 2007 Dining Out in Chinatown: Uncovering the Archaeological Attributes of a Historical Overseas Chinese Restaurant Introduction Utilizing the Market Street artifact collection, this project will attempt to address the issue of what elements constitute a commercial dining establishment of the 19th century Chinatown. Investigating material remains from the Market Street Chinatown site in San Jose, I will explore the defining attributes that characterize historical Chinese restaurants in immigrant communities, with the aim of engendering a more complete understanding of how these restaurants can be identified in an archaeological context. My overarching research question is broken down into smaller, more specific components in my analysis. As there is presently no existing profile of the archaeological characteristics of a restaurant in a 19th century Chinese community, I will first need to formulate a profile on my own from documentary sources that I can use as a basis for evaluating remains from the Market Street Chinatown site. Next is an examination of the artifact profile of the materials recovered from another Market Street feature not associated with a commercial dining establishment. Then, analyzing a collection excavated from a feature that provenience and preliminary analysis suggest may have been connected to a formerly existent restaurant, I will endeavor to examine the validity of such a speculation of association by comparison with my tentative restaurant profile and the materials recovered from the other onsite feature representing a “non-restaurant” assemblage and serving as a control. This will enable an assessment of whether the collection of interest more closely resembles the artifact profile theorized for a restaurant or that of the control assemblage not related to commercial food service, and evaluation of which onsite assemblage was more consistent with the restaurant profile.

New York's Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian
FRUNZA, BOGDANA SIMINA., M.S. Streetscape and Ethnicity: New York’s Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian American Ethnic Identity. (2008) Directed by Prof. Jo R. Leimenstoll. 161 pp. The current research looked at ways in which the built environment of an ethnic enclave contributes to the definition and redefinition of the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. Assuming a dynamic component of the built environment, the study advanced the idea of the streetscape as an active agent of change in the definition and redefinition of ethnic identity. Throughout a century of existence, Little Italy – New York’s most prominent Italian enclave – changed its demographics, appearance and significance; these changes resonated with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. From its beginnings at the end of the nineteenth century until the present, Little Italy’s Mulberry Street has maintained its privileged status as the core of the enclave, but changed its symbolic role radically. Over three generations of Italian immigrants, Mulberry Street changed its role from a space of trade to a space of leisure, from a place of providing to a place of consuming, and from a social arena to a tourist tract. The photographic analysis employed in this study revealed that changes in the streetscape of Mulberry Street connected with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants, from regional Southern Italian to Italian American. Moreover, the photographic evidence demonstrates the active role of the street in the permanent redefinition of

An Immigrant Neighborhood: Interethnic and Interracial
Introduction n the winter of 1877, a group of mourners gathered in a dimly lit funeral parlor on Pearl Street in lower Manhattan to pay their last respects to Ah Fung (sometimes referred to as Ah Lung), a Chinese Iman who had been brutally murdered in his Lower East Side apartment. He had died of “ghastly wounds” at Bellevue Hospital after living for eighty hours with his brain exposed.1 Both Irish and Chinese people attended the funeral, including Mrs. Ah Fung, a woman of Irish ances- try. The New York World described the mixed gathering as “something unprecedented . [that gave] a good idea of the cosmopolitan character of the city”2 Given the well-publicized history of anti-Chinese hostility among the Irish working class, it is not surprising that the editors viewed the Ah Fung funeral as an anomaly.3 The details of Ah Fung’s life are murky. TheWorld described him as a laundry worker, while the New York Times reported that he had eked out a living making cigars and cigarettes with a Chinese man, Tung Ha, also known as “Peter Johnson,” and his white wife, Theresa.4 The three lived at 17 Forsyth Street, located in an ethnically mixed neighborhood across from the future site of the Manhattan Bridge. For unknown rea- sons, the household had not included Ah Fung’s wife; the two appar- ently had been living apart for several months before the attack.5 Like other working-class immigrant communities, the Chinese called on their local mutual aid societies to help cover the funeral costs.6 2 | intRODuction Members of the Ene E.
