I would like to thank Teresa Caldeira and the Master’s thesis writing group— Hun Kim, Sergio Montero, and Oscar Sosa—for your help throughout the writing process. I appreciate your insightful comments and steady collegial support. Our meetings have transformed my thesis into a rewarding project. Ananya Roy has offered encouragement at every step in the journey, whether guiding me through the realities of fieldwork or ensuring the logical cohesion of my thesis. Michael Omi has offered invaluable mentorship throughout this process, and I appreciate his contribution in shaping the numerous drafts. Lastly, I would like to thank Genni Low for her transcription assistance, Michael Huang for ensuring that I eat at least three meals a day in my quest to stay hungry and foolish, and perhaps most importantly, the residents of the Lower East Side and Chinatown for sharing their insights with me.

  • Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: the Case of the Bowery Presents
    Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: The Case of The Bowery Presents Fabian Holt University of Roskilde [email protected] Abstract This article offers a new analytical perspective on the relation between rock clubs and gentrification to illuminate broader changes in urbanism and cultural production in New York City. Although gentrification is central to understanding how the urban condition has changed since the 1960s, the long-term implications for popular music and its evolution within new urban populations and cultural industries have received relatively little scholarly attention. Gentrification has often been dismissed as an outside threat to music scenes. This article, in contrast, argues that gentrification needs to be understood as a broader social, economic, and cultural process in which popular music cultures have changed. The argument is developed through a case study of The Bowery Presents, a now dominant concert promoter and venue operator with offices on the Lower East Side. Based on fieldwork conducted over a three-year period and on urban sociological macro-level analysis, this article develops an analytical narrative to account for the evolution of the contemporary concert culture in the mid-size venues of The Bowery Presents on the Lower East Side and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, as a particular instance of more general dynamics of culture and commerce in contemporary cities. The narrative opens up new perspectives for theorizing live music and popular culture within processes of urban social change. The article begins by reviewing conventional approaches to rock music clubs in popular music studies and urban sociology. These approaches are further clarified through the mapping of a deep structure in how music scenes have framed the relationship between clubs and gentrification discursively.

  • Analyzing the Impact of Redevelopment on Urban Communities: Developing Strategies for Successful Inclusive Integration
    ANALYZING THE IMPACT OF REDEVELOPMENT ON URBAN COMMUNITIES: DEVELOPING STRATEGIES FOR SUCCESSFUL INCLUSIVE INTEGRATION Master’s Thesis Connor Reisenbigler Aalto University School of Engineering Real Estate Economics Spring 2020 Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Connor Reisenbigler Title of thesis Analyzing the Impact of Redevelopment on Urban Communities: Developing Strategies for Successful Inclusive Integration Master programme Real Estate Economics Code ENG24 Thesis supervisor Kirsikka Riekkinen Thesis advisor(s) Kirsikka Riekkinen Date 30.06.2020 Number of pages 82 Language English Abstract: Increasing demand for space in cities driven by factors of migration and economics are placing undue pressure on housing creation. The effect has been a great deterioration to affordable housing in cities worldwide. Redevelopment has thus arisen as a response to decreased land availability, as cities seek to find space for development where possible. The issue is these developments often require great financial investment, and result in gentrification and displacement of existing residents upon completion. The purpose of this study is thus to understand the reasons for redevelopment, its potential for displacement of moderate / low income communities, and strategies which have been successful in retaining the presence of low income residents even with transformative redevelopment. The research is carried out as a mostly quantitative case study, as the influence of redevelopment on pricing and demographic change in New York is analyzed. The research is thus largely a study of sales in areas affected by redevelopment and how they have changed in respect to the control group. Additionally, with inclusive housing acting as the primary tool for affordable housing creation in new developments, the practice is studied and analyzed in great detail as a method of inclusivity.

  • Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: the Case of the Bowery Presents
    Rock Clubs and Gentrification in New York City: The Case of The Bowery Presents Fabian Holt University of Roskilde [email protected] Abstract This article offers a new analytical perspective on the relation between rock clubs and gentrification to illuminate broader changes in urbanism and cultural production in New York City. Although gentrification is central to understanding how the urban condition has changed since the 1960s, the long-term implications for popular music and its evolution within new urban populations and cultural industries have received relatively little scholarly attention. Gentrification has often been dismissed as an outside threat to music scenes. This article, in contrast, argues that gentrification needs to be understood as a broader social, economic, and cultural process in which popular music cultures have changed. The argument is developed through a case study of The Bowery Presents, a now dominant concert promoter and venue operator with offices on the Lower East Side. Based on fieldwork conducted over a three-year period and on urban sociological macro-level analysis, this article develops an analytical narrative to account for the evolution of the contemporary concert culture in the mid-size venues of The Bowery Presents on the Lower East Side and Williamsburg, Brooklyn, as a particular instance of more general dynamics of culture and commerce in contemporary cities. The narrative opens up new perspectives for theorizing live music and popular culture within processes of urban social change. The article begins by reviewing conventional approaches to rock music clubs in popular music studies and urban sociology. These approaches are further clarified through the mapping of a deep structure in how music scenes have framed the relationship between clubs and gentrification discursively.

  • Historic and Cultural Resources A. INTRODUCTION
    Chapter 7: Historic and Cultural Resources A. INTRODUCTION This chapter considers the potential of the proposed actions to affect historic and cultural resources, both archaeological and architectural. It has been prepared in accordance with City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) guidelines, the State Environmental Quality Review Act, and Section 14.09 of the New York State Historic Preservation Act of 1980. These laws and regulations require that City and state agencies, respectively, consider the impacts of their actions on historic and cultural resources. In addition, because construction financing may come from New York State and/or the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), this chapter has also been prepared in accordance with the New York State Historic Preservation Act of 1980 (Section 14.09 of the New York Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation Law) and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. In accordance with CEQR guidelines, this analysis identifies all historic and cultural resources that have been designated or determined to meet the eligibility requirements for local, state, or national designation, and it also identifies properties that may meet such eligibility requirements. In assessing potential project effects on historic and cultural resources, this analysis follows the guidance of the CEQR Technical Manual (January 2012 edition). The CEQR Technical Manual recommends that a historic resources assessment be performed if a proposed action would result in any of the following actions: in-ground disturbance; new construction, demolition, or significant physical alteration of any building, structure, or object; the change in scale, visual prominence, or visual context of any building, structure, or object or landscape feature; or the screening or elimination of publicly accessible views, even if no known historic resources are located nearby.
