  • 12 Architects That Changed the World 24 JANUARY 2011 77 COMMENTS Inshare100
    12 Architects that Changed the World 24 JANUARY 2011 77 COMMENTS inShare100 From time to time, there is a great artist that changes the way we perceive masterpieces and other people and gives us new emotions. Still, humanity gives birth to visionaries in other domains as well. And architecture is yet another great field where these bright minds create marvels and change perspectives. Some architects are even responsible for creating masterpieces with an emotional impact on people and can change the way we perceive cities and countries. Artists or not, these farsighted architects, were and many continue to be, the masters in redesigning our future. Here are 12 great builders that through their innovation spirit and devotion changed our world. 1. Oscar Niemeyer (b. December 15, 1907) His portrait Oscar Ribeiro de Almeida Niemeyer Soares Filho is considered to be a pioneer in creating new possibilities for using the reinforced concrete just for aesthetical reasons. He started with designing the first state-sponsored skyscraper in the world, for the Brazilian government. It was completed in 1943 and after decades it was recognized as the first example of Brazilian modernism. He was part of the international team that designed the UN headquarters in New York and his conceptual plan was the main source of inspiration for the constructors. His membership in the Brazilian Communist Party limited his chances of working in the United States and got him exiled up until 1985. By the time the exile ended, he designed the main administration buildings in Brasilia, the country’s new capital city.

  • Public Comment on REVISED Application for 232-36 Walnut Street
    Public comment on REVISED application for 232-36 Walnut Street John Gibbons, Architect and Urban Planner 8123 Roanoke Street Philadelphia, PA 19118 267.474.9741 [email protected] September 4, 2020 Philadelphia Historical Commission One Parkway, 13th Floor 1515 Arch Street Philadelphia, PA 19102 Re: 232-236 Walnut Street As the planning consultant firm principal responsible for the 2017 Society Hill Neighborhood Plan, I have the following comments regarding the inconsistency of the proposed redevelopment at 232-236 Walnut Street (as revised and posted yesterday on the Commission’s website), with the Plan recommendations.1 The development as currently proposed conflicts with the goals and recommendations of the Society Hill Neighborhood Plan in terms of: • building height; and, • design. The development as currently proposed is for a 8 story, 100-foot-high (plus mechanicals), hotel building, part of which would be on an adjacent lot. A set back from Walnut Street of 28’-10” is proposed to meet the zoning requirement that the height of a building on a parcel abutting Independence National Historical Park may not exceed 45 feet within 25 feet of an established building line. No similar required height set back is indicated for any of the other building lines. • Background The Society Hill Neighborhood Plan was completed in 2017 by a number of professional consulting firms under the direction of the Society Hill Civic Association with extensive input from community residents and participation of Planning Commission staff. The community goals as expressed in the plan centered on the preservation of the significance of the Society Hill Historic District both as the largest concentration of 18th and early 19th Century buildings in the United States and the first Urban Renewal Area based on preservation, and as a southerly extension of Independence National Historical Park.
